Chapter 38: Thief
The journey on the train is boring and boring.
Of course, this is Chu Han's feeling. It is novel and interesting to Zhou Peng.
In the late 1990s, the train had not yet accelerated and was slow. For Chu Han, who had experienced six speed-ups and had high-speed rail planes, the speed was slower than the speed of a classic car.
"Chu Han, look quickly, we are out of the market!"
"Chu Han, look quickly, we are out of the province!"
"Chu Han, look..."
"I'll see your sister. Can you let me sleep for a while?" Chu Han yawned and couldn't help but complain.
It is said that only when the hair is long can you see it, but Zhou Peng, who has short hair, wants to say hello to Chu Han when he sees anything, which makes Chu Han very annoyed and wants to kick this annoying guy out.
Finally, Zhou Peng became quiet, but he still lay his eyes tightly on the window and looked at the strange scenery that flashed outside.
There are many people on the train because there are also many people working outside, crowded, and all kinds of smells are mixed together. It will definitely not be very comfortable to stay in this place for a day and a night.
But because the train speed did not increase, it would take a day and a night to reach the Magic City at this speed.
Moreover, because the public security is not very good, Chu Han also needs to pay attention to his bag and Zhou Peng's bag.
An hour after getting on the bus, Chu Han heard someone shouting that his bag had been cut and his wallet was gone. There was no surveillance and there were many people. The flight attendant could only calm down and get off the bus at the next stop and call the police.
This is simply not true after twenty years, because no one uses cash in twenty years.
When everyone learned that there might be pickpockets on the train, they all held their bags tightly, fearing that they would become the next target of the pickpocket.
Chu Han and Zhou Peng sat together. Opposite them was a fair and innocent girl. She looked about the same age as the two. On this day, she either went out to work or went out to study like the two.
Next to the girl, there was a middle-aged man with a big belly and a bit vulgar, but he looked like a man in a suit. Even if he was not a successful person, he probably was a person who was doing a glamorous career.
Chu Han closed his eyes and planned to close his eyes and rest for a while. When he closed his eyes and rested, it would be dark.
Just as the train lights were on, Chu Han and Zhou Peng started having supper.
Dinner is very simple, it is instant noodles, and there are many people eating instant noodles. In an instant, the entire carriage was filled with the smell of instant noodles.
Along the way, the train will stop in other cities, with few people coming down, many people coming on, and some even station tickets. It seems that everyone's destinations should be the same, the terminal station, and the Magic City.
In order to go to the tea room to make instant noodles, Chu Han squeezed around and almost squeezed himself into a paper man.
Because of the existence of pickpockets, he and Zhou Peng had to look at the bags and go to instant noodles one by one, so both of them experienced a wave of feeling of being shoulder to shoulder.
Finally, Zhou Peng's novelty disappeared, and the boredom gradually climbed into his heart.
While eating noodles, I started chatting with the two people on the other side.
I took out a piece of sandwich bread when I pooped on a big belly. It turned out to be the best, and the food was better than instant noodles.
The little girl was still holding the bag in her hand tightly. Obviously she was very hungry, but she didn't dare to go to instant noodles casually. Not to mention whether she had the courage to squeeze through the crowd. Even if there was, the bag in her hand was too big. It would be unsafe to carry it with her and squeeze through so many people. So she could only sit hungry in her seat.
But Zhou Peng was still mentally retarded and chatted with others while eating.
"Miss, what are you doing in the Demon City?" After asking, he took a sip of his face.
The little girl swallowed silently and said, "I'm going to school."
"Which school is from? We both went to school, I am from finance, and he is from Magic University."
As soon as Zhou Peng finished his words, the little girl and the middle-aged man who was eating bread were on Chu Han. Magic University is a prestigious university, and the one who can pass the exam is definitely not an ordinary person.
But Chu Han's cold face and his expression of refusing to talk to anyone made the two of them hold back their inner questions.
The little girl was surprised to Zhou Peng and said, "I am also from finance. When I learn accounting, what did you learn?"
"I signed up for a computer, just like my buddy, and he said that this industry will make a fortune in the future." Zhou Peng took another sip of the noodle soup, and could not see the girl opposite swallowing her saliva at all.
Before the young lady could respond, the middle-aged man asked, "Will computers make money in the future? What do you say?"
"Uh...I don't know the specifics, what my buddy said." Zhou Peng pointed the topic at Chu Han.
"I'm kidding." Chu Han didn't raise his head, ate the noodles quietly, and replied by the way.
This sentence directly killed the chat. The middle-aged man continued to eat the bread in his hand awkwardly. The little girl also closed her mouth and leaned on the seat without saying a word.
After dinner, everyone also started to rest. The night gradually became deeper and the train was still running slowly.
Zhou Peng next to him slept like a dead pig, but Chu Han couldn't sleep because he slept all the way during the day.
I touched my pocket habitually, but I didn’t have a cell phone... It seems that the first thing I did when I arrived in the Magic City was to buy a cell phone.
Chu Han wrote Wang Hao's mobile phone number on the notebook and promised that the Magic City would buy a mobile phone to call him. Although the current mobile phone can only make calls, the function of making calls is already very useful.
After yawning, Chu Han planned to continue to close his eyes and rest. Suddenly, the rustling sound next to him attracted his attention.
A man who looked strong slowly squeezed to the girl's seat opposite, and the girl was sleeping soundly in her seat.
Because of sleeping, the bag that was originally held tightly in his arms was now hanging loosely on his thighs. As long as someone who is interested can hook the bag away with just one hook.
This made Chu Han feel more attentive. The lights on the train were a little dim, but he could still clearly see the nearby environment.
The man slowly leaned against the seat and looked around as if nothing had happened. No one was paying attention to this place if the others were sleeping or lowering their heads and closing their eyes.
The man was secretly happy and slowly stretched his hand towards the bag on the girl's thigh.
"What are you doing?"
Just as the man grabbed the little girl's bag with his hand, Chu Han spoke out.
But what surprised Chu Han was that the man was not afraid, and even looked normal, and took out a spring knife from his pocket. No one knew how he brought this weapon to the train, but the security checks for trains are not strict now.
The man held the knife and pointed it at Chu Han, telling Chu Han not to meddle in other people's business.
So he continued to touch his bag.
At this moment, Chu Han wanted to kick the little girl, but after thinking about it carefully, he gave up this move. If the little girl wakes up and struggles, the man will feel hot and slash them, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
But he couldn't just do nothing, so he said, "Look at how many people are in this carriage. If I shout, do you think you can run away?"
The man smiled, showed a mouthful of yellow teeth and said, "I can't run away, I'll stab you first, see if I can't run away."
After saying that, the man was going to pull the little girl's bag away. At that time, Chu Han picked up the leftover instant noodles bucket and poured the noodle soup at the man.
