Chapter 200: The Fat Man's Letter (4)
At this moment, Yang He suddenly said "Huh". Following his gaze, I vaguely saw the figure of a cat, crouched on the hood of our car.
That cat, that cat actually had a pale human face! Before I could make a sound, the cat's face changed back to its normal appearance, no different from other cats, I rubbed my eyes and thought that maybe I was dazzled, and when I was about to take a closer look, the cat suddenly shortened and disappeared into the darkness.
"What's wrong?" Tang Rou looked at me puzzled.
"There's a black cat squatting in our car, don't you see?"
"Is there one?" Tang Rou's eyes widened.
Yang He and I glanced at each other, and I chuckled in my heart when I looked at his gaze.
"Are there cats? Do you see that? Tang Rou let go of the hand holding me and turned back to ask He Xueyi. He Xueyi's eyes widened: "No, I didn't see anything." ”
"Didn't see anything? How can it be?! I exclaimed excitedly. The two girls must have been frightened by the way I looked, and stood tightly together, holding hands with each other.
Yang He sighed: "Okay, okay." He gave me a look: "No cats." We're scaring you. After that, he threw me the car keys and said, "I'm tired, so you'll be a little tired, and I'll leave the way back to you." ”
There is no doubt that what Yang He said was just to comfort the two girls, and it didn't have much effect.
All the way, all four of us were silent, and it wasn't until we got home that the atmosphere eased somewhat. Tang Rou and He Xueyi began to mutter in the back seat, and Yang He and I in the co-pilot also began to talk without a word.
I felt my eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and when I looked at my watch, it was almost three o'clock, and everyone was so sleepy that they forgot to be afraid.
Seeing that he had turned into the path of his home, Yang He, who was already napping with half-closed eyes at this time, suddenly shouted: "Look at the road!" ”
About five meters in front of the car, there was a cat, pitch black, crouching in the middle of the road, with two green eyes shining evil in the headlights...... A pale human face flashed across the cat's face!
It was too late to brake, I slammed to the left, all the weight of the car plus inertia pressed on the right front tire, and the car began to slide sideways rapidly.
A loud bang suddenly came from under the car, drowning out the screams of the two girls in the back. The right front tire has burst! I suddenly remembered the life-saving tips I had read in car magazines, and quickly slammed the steering wheel to the left, hoping that the inertia would slow down.
However, the speed was too fast, and the road was filled with damp dew, and the car began to spin. I gave up doing anything and just looked at the things that were circling and speeding by. I felt a tremendous force exert on me, I knew it was much stronger than me, and I couldn't resist it, so I had to resign myself to fate.
Maybe it was me who handled it correctly, and the car quickly stopped spinning, but still slid forward. Suddenly, the right side of the car was raised, and all four people in the car let out an exclamation in unison.
The right side of the car lifted forty or fifty degrees, and then the force was exhausted, and it suddenly fell back, making a muffled "bang", and finally stopped.
I was gripping the steering wheel with both hands, sweating profusely. Yang He also looked sallow and frightened. Tang Rou and He Xueyi rushed out of the car and threw up on the side of the road.
After getting out of the car, I had a thousand thoughts in my head, one moment regretting why I was driving so fast, and the other feeling that it was a shame to have an accident while driving. However, I had no idea about the seriousness of the matter at all. But then again, it's not really a big deal at all. Compared to what happened later, it was nothing more than a drop in the bucket.
Yang He and I each lit a cigarette to calm our nerves.
"See?" Yang He asked.
"See, a black cat. It feels like the one in the parking lot just now. I puffed out a puff of smoke.
"Did you see that this time?" After the two girls calmed down, Yang He asked. But He Xueyi and Tang Rou just widened their eyes.
"Cat, black cat with a human face!" I roared, "The reason why the accident just happened was because of that ghost cat standing in the middle of the road!" Why didn't you see it?! ”
"What are you murdering?" Tang Rou suddenly said loudly, "What kind of cat is it to blame if you can't drive well?" Where are the cats? Why didn't we see it? ”
"Alright, alright; The matter has passed, and all four people are intact and uninjured. Yang He interrupted our argument and leaned over to check the car.
I squatted down to touch the still hot tire, and saw a crack more than a foot long on the left front tire, which could be clearly seen at the edge of the tear, similar to a burn mark due to the high temperature before the puncture; I wanted to say a few sorry words, but I didn't know what to say.
"What's going on? How so? ......" Yang He buried his head in the tires and muttered to himself, I had to explain: "At that time, the cat was in front, and my first reaction could only be to avoid ......"
"Not this!" Yang He interrupted, "I saw the cat too. But why do tires burst? ”
"It's too fast, it's too stressful......"
"Not true. Think about it. I remember when you were steering to the left, the full power of the car was on the right front tire. If you want to burst a tire, you should also burst the right front tire, why does the left front tire burst? ”
Oh, yes! How so? I was speechless. Suddenly, I remembered something that made me shudder. Yang He also reacted suddenly, it seemed that we all thought of this at the same time, this extremely terrifying thing.
"Do you remember where the cat sat in the parking lot just now?"
I shuddered, "Like, above the left front tire." ”
"That's right. I also remember it was the left side near the antenna. ”
"What's left?" He Xueyi walked over, her face was slightly better than just now.
"The cat you didn't see in the underground parking lot just now......" I choked up because I heard the terrible meow again: "Meow...... Wow! ”
The voice came from the mountain behind us. Yang He stared at me with wide eyes, and a bead of sweat the size of a bean slipped down his sideburns, and there was no doubt that he had heard it. But He Xueyi and Tang Rou looked at a loss. Yang He hurriedly gave me a look and motioned for me not to tell the two girls anything more.
I had a vague premonition that disaster was coming, but I was absolutely powerless. The feeling is exactly the same as sitting in a runaway car.
"Maybe it's because I've just been in a car accident." I consoled myself with this. However, this feeling has haunted me until now, when I narrate the incident. I don't know when I'll be able to get rid of it, maybe, never.
That night I was in a state of panic. I tossed and turned as gently as I could on the bed, for fear of waking up Tang Rou next to me, but in the end I found that she was not asleep either.
"What? Haven't slept yet? I asked.
"Yes, I can't sleep." She snorted softly, "I, I'm so scared. ”
"Afraid of what?"
"I don't know."
