Chapter Eighty-Four: Halfway Through
Tang Shan set an alarm clock on his mobile phone and planned to get up at six o'clock. In fact, he did not fall asleep at all, tossing and turning until 5:40, when it was futile to fall asleep, so he sat on the edge of the bed in a daze.
He didn't slip away in the middle of the night because the first train to leave the town was at seven in the morning.
The alarm clock rang, Tang Shan dragged out the broken bag from under the bed, didn't brush his teeth, didn't wash his face, and prepared to go out. Only then did he suddenly remember that he had promised Fang Tang at noon yesterday that he would accompany her to the hospital for an abortion today.
Tang Shan stood at the door and hesitated, slipping away quietly, in Fang Tang's eyes, he would become an untrustworthy and irresponsible person. Wouldn't she be sad? Does a person dare to go to the hospital?
Tang Shan smiled bitterly at himself, he couldn't care about Shangtang anymore. Compared with being a fugitive, accompanying Fang Tang to have a fetus has become a trivial matter. He could only choose to lose to her.
Explain to her later if you have the chance; If she doesn't have a chance, let her hate me.
Tang Shan opened the door, thinking that it would be quiet, but he didn't expect the corridor to be very noisy. Instinctively, he shrank his head back, and regretted a little, that he should have quietly left in the middle of the night when no one was around. Even if you wait until dawn at the train station, you won't be seen by many people going out.
But now, if you close the door and retreat to the room, it will be even more sneaky to be seen, and besides, if you have already gotten up and people are moving around throughout the day, will you not leave today? For the "fugitives", one more day is more dangerous.
Tang Shan opened the door and bowed his head as if nothing had happened. I just want others to be in a hurry and have no time to pay attention to him.
But that's an extravagant hope. In the past, Tang Shan was a low-key person in the whole building, and he didn't interact with people much, and indeed many people didn't know him; However, last night he was made a big fuss by Fang Lian, and Tang Shan instantly became a celebrity.
enlarged the landlord's daughter's belly, which is a big event worth gossiping about for many days. Among this group of people, it is simply more worthy of talk than celebrity scandals.
Before Tang Shan reached the top of the stairs, a few guys winked at him. Looking at the duffel bag behind him, with a suspicious look on his face, a guy asked with bad intentions:
"Yo, handsome guy, going far away?"
Tang Shan knew that this person's surname was Cao, who sold fish in the vegetable market, and there was always a fishy smell floating on his body.
If it were in normal times, Tang Shan would definitely blurt out in return, where am I going to care about your, do I know you very well? But at the moment, he is not in the mood to quarrel with others, because on this occasion, once the quarrel starts, it may be endless.
And the bigger the noise, the more people will attract attention, which is not a good thing for a fugitive. Despite the fact that he is a fugitive in disguise.
Tang Shan bowed his head and walked around him.
Another guy smirked:
"Going alone? Leave others alone in the empty room, and next time your belly gets bigger, I'm afraid it won't be yours. ”
This person doesn't know who his surname is, just because a mouth is okay and always crooked to the right, he will laugh when he encounters happy things, the corner of his right mouth can be pulled all the way to the root of his right ear, and half of his face is cracked like a knife, which looks quite scary, so everyone calls him "crooked mouth".
Crooked mouth has never been very serious, and every sentence is not far from the next three ways. At this moment, he said something that he thought was humorous, and he really made the two sleepy-eyed straw bales next to him laugh.
Tang Shan lowered his head and ignored it, just stretched out his hand to push aside the person who was blocking in front of him and continued to walk forward.
The questioning Yu Lao Cao and the crooked mouth didn't get a response, but it was nothing, anyway, he just asked casually; The person who was pushed aside felt that he had been inexplicably bullied early in the morning, and a strong anger surged in his heart.
Maple Grove is a *jar. Walking on the street, the crowd is dense, and you push an oncoming person aside for no reason, which is an impudent and arrogant act, at least arguing, until jumping to scold each other, and at worst starting to fight, white knives in and red knives out are possible.
Tang Shan's luck is not very good, the one surnamed Fan who was set aside by him, usually a big fart, after he said it, it was like a fire, and everyone called him "old annoyance" because of his temper.
In front of everyone's eyes, the old annoyance was pushed for no reason, how could he give up? He didn't do it directly, he had already given Tang Shan some face, and immediately scolded in his mouth:
"Damn, the landlord's daughter doesn't have to be so arrogant, right? You're not the owner of this house yet. ”
Tang Shan couldn't help but turn around and glare at this person fiercely.
He has been unkempt in the past few days, his hair is scattered, his face is dark, and he has lost a lot of weight from head to toe, so this stare looks like a copper bell, and there is more white and less black inside, and the whole expression makes people feel fierce and abnormal, and there is a momentum that wants to dismantle people.
In addition, Tang Shan originally wanted to scold back, but he was in a hurry to leave and didn't want to do much and shut his mouth tightly, which made his image even more terrifying.
People who often mess around on the streets know that anyone who scolds and scolds in advance basically can't fight; On the contrary, those who keep their mouths shut and stare usually see blood when they shoot.
The grumpy old annoyance suddenly saw Tang Shan's murderous expression, and immediately fell silent.
So everyone involuntarily gave way to a road, and Tangshan was able to turn around and go downstairs.
But after such a fuss, everyone knows that this handsome star in the rental house is going to go far away. Tang Shan regretted a little, he really should have secretly left in the middle of the night, then he wouldn't have gotten to the point where everyone knows about it now.
After Tangshan walked out of the hundred meters, he felt a little painful in his heart for some reason, and couldn't help but turn around, wanting to take one last look at Fang Tang's figure, but only tenants came and went at the door.
Fang Tang should still be asleep. Tang Shan stood in the cold wind, stunned.
Tang Shan walked to the Dongli Bridge and thought that there were still two things in the bag that needed to be disposed of, one was Zhou Papi's mobile phone, and the other was the Japanese book that kept accounts.
He took out his mobile phone, shook his hand and was about to throw it into the river, and his heart suddenly moved, he received a phone call at the scene of the murder, listening to his tone, the other party seemed to know that Zhou Papi was dead at that time.
Who is this man? What does it have to do with Zhou Papi? Does it have anything to do with that endgame?
Thinking of this, Tang Shan took out a paper and pen again and wrote down the number of the last call. Then he threw Zhou's phone into the river.
He took out the diary that was used as an account book, and was about to throw it down the railing, when he thought that this thing did not sink in the water, and it was estimated that it had not drifted far before it was picked up.
Besides, Tang Shan was bored and flipped through the ledger in detail the night before, which seemed to involve several important people in the town, and it would be a pity to throw it away, and it was not sure which day it would come in handy.
However, it is too dangerous for the book to stay by his side, and if he is caught by the police and asks about the source of the account book, he can't tell 10,000 mouths. How do you explain that Shen Geng ran to the murder scene in the middle of the night to steal the ledger?
After all, it was early in the morning, and there was no shortage of excitement in the rental house, but there were very few pedestrians on the bridge, mostly old people running, and no one paid attention to Tangshan, who was walking alone with his bag.
He hesitated on the bridge for a while, then walked to one end of the bridge, turned down, turned into the hole in the lower right, found a crack in the wall, stuffed the ledger in, and grabbed a few handfuls of rotten grass and pasted them outside. From a distance, no one could see what was stuffed inside.
Returning to the bridge from the bridge hole, Tang Shan stopped a rental car and went straight to the train station. Sitting in the back seat, he has been thinking in his heart, since he intends to pretend to be a fugitive, he should pretend to be realistic.
Tangshan had a preliminary plan: first buy a train ticket to Guangzhou south, and after entering the platform with the ticket, he did not get on the corresponding train, but took advantage of the conductor's inattention, jumped on any train, and waited for the car to start, and then casually reported the name of the station and made up the corresponding car money.
It can go west to east, or to the north, but not to the south.
Maple Grove is a small station, and the inspections on the platform are not so strict.
If this plan can succeed, at least for a long time, no one knows where he Tangshan has gone.
There are still more than 50,000 yuan in cash in Tangshan's bag, so it should be no problem to find a third- or fourth-tier city where no one knows him, rent a small house that doesn't require you to show your ID card, and hide for half a year. This was the deadline he agreed with Chen Yusheng.
Tang Shan was very satisfied with his plan. Even a little complacent.
Because it was still early, only one of the ticket windows at the train station was open, and an obese middle-aged woman sat inside.
It is estimated that after playing mahjong all night last night, the middle-aged woman looks seriously sleep-deprived, her eyes are not fully open, and she may not even have time to wash her face, because there are still a few pieces of eye droppings of different colors left in the corners of her eyes.
She stretched and yawned, and Tang Shan stood outside the window, and saw a few rotten teeth from her gaping mouth. After a burst of nausea, Tang Shan patted the window glass and threw it in a sentence without any emotion:
"Give me a ticket to Guangzhou this morning. How much? ”
The fat woman closed her mouth and glanced at Tang Shan very reluctantly, speaking with a lazy expression, and her tone seemed to have been frozen in the refrigerator:
"Boy, haven't you been out, have you? Don't even understand the real-name system for train tickets? Present your ID card first. ”
Reluctantly, Tang Shan took out his ID card and threw it in through the window.
The fat woman stretched out her fat and greasy hand and grabbed the ID card, glanced at it, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and even the feces fell off several pieces, and then, like a shy girl, she raised her head and said timidly to Tang Shan:
"There is a bit of a problem with the ticket purchase network, I'll take a look, you wait a minute."
After speaking, he didn't put down the ID card in his hand, lifted his fat ass from the chair, turned around and limped into the cubicle.
Tang Shan's heart sank suddenly, the so-called "network problem" is obviously a lie that is not very clever, there is really a problem, before she stretched her waist and yawned just now, she should have debugged it.
After seeing Tang Shan's ID card, he suddenly left, obviously not because there was a problem with the network, but because there was a problem with Tang Shan's identity.
The air was still cold in the early morning, but Tang Shan's back and forehead began to sweat.
Tang Shan's hunch was right. The fat woman didn't return to the ticket window, and after waiting for a while, two station security guards silently appeared behind Tang Shan, holding him on the left and right, probably to prevent him from escaping.
One of the pimple-faced security guards said:
"Young man, you can't go for a while. I just received a call from the police station saying that there is a homicide case and you want to go back to assist in the investigation. ”
Another flat-faced security guard held Tang Shan's ID card in his hand, looked at it, and put it back in Tang Shan's pocket.
Tang Shan did have the idea of escaping the road in an instant. But looking back on his sports career, he never failed running, and he gave up on this plan in an instant.
This imaginary fugitive, before he began his fugitive career, obediently became a prisoner of the police.
