Chapter 114: Gunshots in the middle of the night

The truck team that went south to Mexico drove all the way along the eastern coastline for three days and three nights, passing through Mongomery, Mobile, New Orleans, Houston, and San Antonio, and finally approached the U.S.-Mexico border.

"Xiaofei, otherwise, let's rest for one night and then leave, my ass will be knocked into four pieces."

Wang Lianhao sat in the car body, stood up for a while, and twisted his waist for a while, looking extremely uncomfortable.

Shen Weicai also seemed to have lice on his body, changing his posture left and right, but he couldn't find the most comfortable one.

Xiaofei's original name was Lai Xiaofei, he has followed Zhou Yu since the Somme River, and he also served as the team leader, and he was also the leader of the team on this trip south to Mexico.

"You two don't complain, look at the copper locks of others, you haven't said a word."

Wang Lianhao and Shen Wei glanced at Zhao Tongsuo, who was smiling, "He? I'm afraid he won't bother to take a look at the sky when it falls, Xiaofei, even if you don't feel sorry for the two of us, you also feel sorry for Mr. Lawyer, his body is expensive, it's different from us, but don't that brother didn't arrive at that time, he knocked down the lawyer first, and we can't do our business? ”

Leswood, the lawyer, and Zach, the driver, sat in the cab in front of them and couldn't hear what they were saying.

Lai Xiaofei took out his newly bought pocket watch and glanced at it, silently counted the date in his heart, patted the glass connected to the driver's seat, and motioned for Zack to pull over.

"Mr. Lai, do you have any instructions?"

Zach asked, pulling his car over to the side of the road, poking his head out.

"Zach, find a hotel in front and rest for the night before leaving, everyone is tired."

"It's great~ I can finally rest~~~"

Wang Lianhao stretched his waist and patted Santos who was sitting in the corner.

"Hey, Ahsan, how far is your hometown?"

Santos seemed to be quite uncomfortable because of the shaking of the vehicle, and at this moment raised his eyelids slightly and squeezed out a smile:

"It's not far off...... From here, it's a day's walk south along the main road, my hometown is in the village of Lucian on the outskirts of Reynossa, where there are a lot of trees that the boss needs, and I wish I could have seen my family sooner, they must be worried about my ......"

The smile on Wang Lianhao's face dimmed slightly when he heard this, and he whispered to himself: "There are still family members?" That's nice...... What does it feel like to be remembered? ”

The truck staggered to a halt outside a motel that offered refueling and rest.

Everyone jumped out of the car, Lai Xiaofei went to the front desk to open two large houses, while Zach went to refuel the truck.

Leswood had never been in a car for such a long time, and for a moment he felt a sore back and a little numb in his hands and feet.

He walked back and forth doing chest expansion exercises while looking around at towns that were far less bustling than New York.

He took off his hat and fanned it, "Although there are not so many high-rise cars here, the scenery is good, and the temperature is getting warmer and warmer." ”

"Mr. Lawyer, you and me and Copper Lock still live in one room, Wang Lianhao, Weicai, Zack, you live in one room with Santos, remember not to sleep too hard at night, you are all smart."

"Haole~No problem~"

Wang Lianhao took the door key, couldn't wait to find the door that matched the number plate, inserted the key into the hole, and pierced his head when he opened the door.

The hotel facilities here are relatively old, and the conditions are quite average, but for C13 people who are used to living a hard life, it is comfortable enough to have a bed to sleep in, and there is nothing to complain about at all.

Everyone got off the truck like luggage, stuffed it into the hotel room, and poured some hot water from the front desk water room, cleaned it, and fell on the bed on all fours, and after a while, Wang Lianhao snored like thunder and fell asleep.

"Stinky boy, it's not dark yet."

Lai Xiaofei stood outside the door of Wang Lianhao's room, shook his head with a wry smile, and could only look at Shen Weicai and said, "Weicai, then you are on the first shift tonight, and call this kid up in the middle of the night." ”

"Don't worry."

Shen Weicai raised his hand, and Lai Xiaofei closed the door by the way and returned to his room.

The inn didn't have too many beds, but some wooden planks on the ground and two layers of quilts on the boards, similar to the Chase bunk they had slept on.

Leswood took off his coat and hat, and took out the little notebook he had used to record and looked at it carefully, adding two strokes from time to time.

The copper lock took out the revolver he carried with him, and wiped it back and forth on the body, barrel, and handle with a white handkerchief, tirelessly.

Lai Xiaofei glanced at it and said: "Santos, you go to sleep first, Tong Suo, I will keep the first half of the night, you should also rest quickly, hurry up, Mr. Zhou said that it is not peaceful here, go early and return early." ”

The copper lock said "hey", put the pistol close to his body, and lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

When Lai Xiaofei picked up the keys, he noticed that almost all the keys to the doors were hung on the wooden board on the wall, and only a few were removed, and those houses should be inhabited, counting the two rooms they opened, the hotel had a total of four rooms.

They live on the first floor and the other two are on the second floor.

Since they had spent the previous three days in a truck, as soon as they got to bed, everyone immediately fell asleep and did not even want to eat.

As the sky gradually darkened, Lai Xiaofei yawned, rubbed his eyes again, and forced himself not to fall asleep.

He sat by the window, pulled the curtain open, and watched the movement outside.

Suddenly, at this moment, Lai Xiaofei heard a slight sound of conversation and footsteps, which was not a normal walk, but a sound that could only be made by deliberately lightening his steps.

The men didn't speak English, he couldn't understand them, and he could only widen his eyes to see something.

After a while, the voice got closer and closer, and through the pale blue moonlight falling from the sky, Xiao Fei saw that they were two men in dirty leather coats and wide-brimmed hats.

Their appearance is somewhat similar to Santos, probably the people from Mexico that Mr. Zhou said, these two people are sneaky, and they don't know what they are doing.

Lai Xiaofei quietly watched the two talk in a low voice for a while, and waved his arms behind him.

"They still have companions?"

"Da Da Da", more dense footsteps came, Lai Xiaofei silently calculated in his heart that there were at least ten people, and these people didn't seem to be passing by to stay here.

Thinking of this, Ya couldn't help but be a little more vigilant, took out a Browning pistol from his lower back, and stretched out his foot to kick twice on the copper lock leg.

The sleeping copper lock eyes suddenly opened, and sat up like a corpse.

Lai Xiaofei put his finger to his mouth to signal him not to make a sound, and pointed out the window again.

The copper lock was as if he had never slept before, and his eyes instantly became clear.

He sat up from the bed and walked to the door, peering through the narrow crack.

There, at least ten strangers walked past the door of their room, whispering in a language they didn't understand, in a hurried, and sinister tone.

The two exchanged glances, pulled the pistol safety away, and put their fingers near the trigger.

Suddenly, at this moment, we heard a shout overhead, followed by the sound of "ping-pong" shooting.

Someone is shooting!

"What's wrong? What's going on? Did the German devils call? ”

Wang Lianhao, who slept until he was confused, got up from the bed with a grunt, but was suddenly covered by Shen Weicai.

"Shh~ Be quiet, a group of people came outside, and we lived upstairs to fight, Xiaofei and they must have heard the movement too, take your gun and prepare for the worst."

Wang Lianghao stretched out his hand to wipe the saliva from the corner of his mouth, hurriedly took out his gun, checked the magazine, and leaned against the window with a nervous expression.

"Ping Pong~"

Several more gunshots rang out outside, accompanied by a scream, and with a bang, something fell from the building.
