Chapter Eighty-Six: Eating

The two small workers wanted to stop them, but they were afraid that the boss would get angry, so they were in a dilemma.

Seeing this, the other customers joined the fat man's team and ran out of the door in a swarm.

I was the last to go, and when I looked back, I saw the boss holding up his hands, like a zombie, and the more I tried to catch up, the more I retreated, and my feet slipped and fell to the ground, and I also brought down two small workers.

"Boss, find a place to hide, otherwise you will be miserable if you inhale poisonous gas!" I didn't forget to kindly remind him a moment before I left, and I couldn't care so much about the rest of the matter.

I ran to the fat man's urban passenger, he had already started the car, and as soon as I got in the car, he stepped on the gas pedal and drove in the opposite direction of the white smoke.

I saw that the sky shrouded in white smoke did not even leave the last trace of the sunset, and it was like the end of the day, and the sky was much darker than usual. The shouts in the ears were endless, and there were still many people fleeing in twos and threes, many private cars jumping their headlights to avoid each other, police cars and fire trucks honking far and near, and several news vehicles speeding by, and the scene was chaotic.

At that moment, the fat man braked so hard that I almost knocked the crayfish out of my churning stomach that I hadn't had time to digest.

"Why are you panicking, you haven't floated over yet!" I said impatiently.

"No, I think I hit someone." With that, the fat man wanted to go to the car door.

Suddenly, a pair of hands reached out from under the car and slapped on the hood, and then a familiar nurse's outfit came into view. I shuddered, how could it be her.

"Xiao He," I blurted out, and hurriedly got out of the car with the fat man to help her, and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

When Xiao He saw that it was me, he was also stunned and said, "Uncle Xiong, quick, Dr. Qiu is in front, we are trapped here." ”

"It's okay, we have a car, get in the car." I greeted the fat man, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xiao He was fine.

Following the direction Xiao He pointed, we quickly found Dr. Qiu, who sat in the passenger seat, and Xiao He and I sat in the back seat.

Xiao He and Dr. Qiu were full of panic on their faces, and they still had palpitations when they sat in the moving car.

I asked, "Why are you here, aren't you supposed to be at the clinic?" ”

Dr. Qiu replied: "As soon as we received the notice from our superiors, we came out, saying that there was a chemical leak on the surrounding road, and only after we went out of the market did we know that there was a big mess outside, and I and Nurse He stopped the car separately, and there was no car willing to carry us after waiting for a long time, but fortunately we met you, thank you so much, Uncle Xiong." ”

"I see, does the clinic still have to work so late?" I asked, puzzled.

"Of course, it's nine o'clock in the evening!" Xiao He pursed his lips and looked at Dr. Qiu.

Dr. Qiu glanced back, spread his hands, and smiled helplessly.

Far from the white smoke, our mood is also much soothed. I asked, "Xiao He, I didn't hurt you just now, did I?" ”

"No, the fat master braked in time, just a little bit short." As he spoke, Xiao He gestured with his little thumb for a short distance. I am glad for her optimism.

The fat man didn't say a word, and he didn't know if it was because of the nervousness just now, so he drove the car into a fork in the road in the opposite direction of the original big lane. With only one lane of road and lush farmland all around, the sun has set half of the horizon and night is approaching, paying tribute to the staff who handled the accident at the scene, as well as sympathy for the victims.

The car slowly stopped after fifty minutes of driving, and finally ran out of gas, so everyone had no choice but to get out of the car, which was still a ten-minute walk from Mizusawa Village. The fat man was reluctant to park the car alone on the side of the road outside the village, and he couldn't contact a colleague who could deliver gasoline, so he asked us to push the car into the village, for the sake of him giving us a ride for free, and after discussion, it was decided that Xiao He would take the steering wheel, and the three of us big men would push it behind.

The newly built asphalt road outside the village is quite flat, pushing it up can give the body a breath, this time period only the hurried pedestrians passed, after seeing us threw an unusual look, under the double torture of tired hands and feet and the stuffy air, we finally came to a place where we could sit and rest - Xiaohong Restaurant.

At seven o'clock, the proprietress was cleaning, and she was very surprised to see us sweating profusely and pushing a stalled city bus.

"Hostess, bring us some bottles of water." I breathed in the heat and sat down in a position where I could reach the fan.

Afterwards, Dr. Qiu, Xiao He, and the fat man also sat down next to me.

The proprietress took four bottles of mineral water from the freezer, handed them to us, and asked, "What's the matter, all out of breath?" ”

The fat man smoked a cigarette and lit it and said, "The car is out of gas." ”

The proprietress looked puzzled. "Then go and come on, and push it over?"

We didn't have time to answer her question, and "Gooo Goo" first replenished the lost water.

At this time, the little girl came out from the kitchen with a swill bucket that was even burlier than her, and said, "Mom, didn't the news say it, there is a chemical leak on the road over the flower and bird market, and the road is closed, they must have come from a long way, right?" After saying that, he also cast an approving glance at us.

I nodded in agreement and said, "It's still a smart little girl, but it's a pity that there is no gas when you get to the entrance of the village, so you can only push it over, boss, let's take a break here for a while!" ”

"Don't get in the way, Uncle Xiong, my mother likes to be lively, right?" The little girl had reached the outside of the store with the swill bucket, and found a corner to put it down, and there were several similar garbage cans next to it.

Every morning, a cleaning truck will come to collect it, and my sleep is very light, accompanied by the music of the cleaning truck, which is also a natural alarm clock for me to get up.

The proprietress glanced at the little girl, as if she was dissatisfied with her lack of size, and then said to us: "Hehe, this child, by the way, the black fish that just arrived at noon is fat, do you want to grill one?" ”

I rubbed my stomach, I couldn't say I was hungry, but there was no taste in my mouth, and I really wanted to add flavor.

The fat man was the first to agree, and anxiously followed the proprietress to the fish tank to pick fish.

A quarter of an hour later, a whole grilled fish of about three catties was "sizzling" on the tray, and the aroma of garlic and spicy flavor filled our nostrils. The fat man unceremoniously brought a few more bottles of beer and handed them over, counting them, I had eaten four meals.

The hostess and the little girl were also having dinner next to us. The little girl smelled the fragrance of our fish, swallowed her saliva unconsciously, and looked in a daze. So I invited them over to eat together, and the proprietress shirked it a few times, but she still couldn't resist the little girl, and finally agreed.

Because I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to eat spicy food, the proprietress brought a few plates of home-cooked food, and ate with the little girl and Xiao He, while I, the fat man, and Dr. Qiu drank beer.
