Chapter 297: Strange Passenger
A young man, in order to visit a friend in Nandu, boarded an express train from Dongzhou at six o'clock in the morning.
In order to make it convenient to take a car in Nandu, he consigned his car to Nandu as early as the night before yesterday. Then early this morning, he took the express train from Dongzhou to Nandu.
Before the train was about to depart, seven wealthy gentlemen entered the carriage he was in. Five of the seven wealthy gentlemen who came in seemed to be very fond of smoking, and as soon as they were seated in their seats, they took out their cigarettes.
The entire carriage was immediately surrounded by smoke, and the young man was furious.
In general, there is also a corridor outside the carriage of the train. This corridor provides direct access to toilets, restaurants and other carriages. However, since the train is old-fashioned, there are no corridors and no carriages for smokers.
Since smoking is not explicitly prohibited on the train, there is no way to stop them.
Truth be told, the young man was a smoker, but he hated the feeling of smoke rushing into his nose.
Luckily, it was only a minute or two before the departure time, so he stuffed the newspaper he was reading and the timetable into his travel bag, took off his coat, and walked to the next car.
There was no one in the carriage, it was empty, except for a woman sitting in it. When the woman saw him enter the carriage, there was a look of great reluctance on her face. She frowned at the tip of her pretty brow, then stuck her head out the window.
There was a rich gentleman standing outside the window, and eighty percent of them were her husband! They whispered across the train.
The rich gentleman, who was about her husband, tilted his head and glanced at the young man who had just entered.
Probably because her husband persuaded her to rest assured, this young man also looked like a rich gentleman with an elegant temperament...... He smiled and whispered to the woman who was as frightened as a baby, and patted the little woman's delicate jade hand.
The woman finally let go of her apprehension and set her eyes on the young man. The young man nodded politely at her before placing his luggage and coat on the upper shelves, and then returning to his seat to read the newspaper he had just interrupted.
He stared at the newspaper intently, and although he didn't want to hear the two of them talking, the sound of it kept coming into his ears.
"We've already discussed it, but now that the situation has become so serious, I can't hesitate any longer. If he didn't do a quick search, he might have taken advantage of this opportunity to slip away. Honey, I probably can't stay here any longer and wait for the car to start. ”
"I understand, so go ahead!"
The rich gentleman made a kiss gesture at her, and then quickly left the platform.
The train's whistle hissed and slowly moved forward. At this time, someone suddenly shouted:
"Ahh Dangerous ......"
A railroad worker tried to hold a man, but he pushed him aside, jumped onto the train as fast as he could, and then went straight into the carriage where the young man and the beautiful young woman were.
He seemed to have just finished a run, his chest still heaving violently, and he was panting like a cow.
At this time, the woman was still leaning against the window of the car, looking at the crowd on the platform.
When she saw the man who had just entered, she couldn't help but let out a low scream, and then fell into her seat in despair.
Her face, as bright as a peach, showed panic and fear, and her big eyes were wide open.
The young man looked at the man who had just entered. It can be seen that he does not have a vicious, creepy face. His dress was both noble and elegant, the tie he wore on his chest was not an ordinary cheap item, and he wore a pair of unusually white and clean gloves on his slender hands.
He shifted his gaze to the man's face again...... Yes! What a beautiful face! Like an athlete, full of vitality, cheerfulness and courage, this face is permeated with the masculine beauty of perseverance and boldness, not to mention women, I am afraid that even men can not resist his aggressive charm.
However, this charming beautiful man seems to have something on his mind......
"Where have I seen this face! …… I've really seen it......"
He looked beyond the newspaper and calmly looked at the beautiful man in front of him, frowning and thinking about it, searching for clues in his head.
The beautiful man and the young woman sat side by side on the chair, and the woman seemed to be terrified, and her body kept moving to one side, as if she wanted to turn away from him.
"Where the hell have I seen him...... Oh yes, as if in a newspaper photograph...... However, it seems that I have never seen it, so I am not impressed...... But in which newspaper did I meet him?"
The young man racked his brains to find an impression, but found nothing. The young man glanced over the newspaper to the beautiful young woman.
Her whole body froze like a statue in front of the window far away from the beautiful man, her hands clutching the leather bag resting on her knees, and she couldn't help but shiver slightly. Her face was blank, and her big eyes flashed with anxiety and horror.
The young man was a little worried about the woman, fearing that she would fall unconscious, so he lowered his voice and said:
"If you feel a little uncomfortable, shall we open the window for some air?"
She didn't say anything, but she used her eyes to suggest that the young man pay attention to the beautiful man next to her. The young man smiled pleasantly at the woman, as if to tell her:
"You don't have to be afraid, he doesn't look like a thug who does evil...... Even if something happens, you can rest assured that I'm here. ”
He conveyed comfort with his silent gaze.
At this moment, the beautiful man also began to pay attention to the young man and the young woman.
He looked at the young man and the young woman carefully. It seemed that he had perceived the young woman's panic, so he sat as far away from her as far as he could, and moved his seat to the far side of the carriage.
The express train sped along the tracks.
The three people in the carriage had their own thoughts, and a dull air hung over their heads.
As if she could no longer bear this suffocating atmosphere, the woman moved and sat down beside the young man, and then, in a barely audible voice, said softly to him, "He is ...... Take this train...... Do you understand?"
He ...... Do you know him?"
"He's a white man?"
As if she had intended to be heard by the beautiful man, the young woman deliberately shouted out his name.
The man rested his hat on his nose and hid his face. He seemed afraid that someone would find out about his hiding, so he might just want to take a break.
