Chapter 66 Crackling
As these words were spoken, several people came in from the door, led by the conductor who was leaving, followed by a female conductor in uniform and a female conductor.
The two men stepped forward and held the old lady down.
When the old lady saw them coming in, she struggled to lie down on the ground, "What are you doing! Don't touch me!"
"If you don't want to go with us, then please go over there." The conductor stepped forward and said, his sullen face turning into a calm one.
In the end, no matter how the old lady struggled, she was carried away. The conductor picked up her luggage and followed behind her. He said to Lin Xia and Fang Yang, "We may ask you to take a statement later. Please do not leave the carriage at will."
"Okay." Lin Xia nodded, feeling inexplicably happy. Whatever she wished for came true.
"That's great!" Fang Yuan said happily, waving her hands.
Lin Xia smiled and lay back on the bed, waiting for someone to take her statement.
Not long after, someone knocked on the door: "Who is Lin Xia?"
Hearing the voice, Lin Xia sat up and put on her shoes, and responded crisply: "Hello, what can I do for you?"
"Hello, I'm the conductor on the train, and I'm here to take your statement." The man was a man in uniform, with regular features, an expressionless face, and sharp and serious eyes.
Lin Xia wanted to stand up, but saw him raise his hand to signal, "No, sit down."
Turning to look at the Fang siblings, he said, "You two should wait outside the door for a while."
When Fang Yuan and Fang Yang saw someone coming, they got up from the bed. Hearing the words, they looked at Lin Xia worriedly before going out. They didn't dare to go far and waited at the door.
Seeing that she didn't have to stand, Lin Xia sat down again and waited for his questions.
"What caused the conflict between you and Luo Lamei?" His tone was serious and cold.
"I brought my daughter in and came in from the door, and I saw Comrade Fang holding her hand. Her hand was on my bag, which was half open." Lin Xia pointed to the bag on the bed.
"Is anything missing?"
"There's food in there, and some sugar. I don't know if there's too little."
Hearing this, the visitor looked up at Lin Xia and asked, "Did you see Comrade Fang taking advantage of her?"
"I only saw Comrade Fang grabbing her wrist, and he pinched it outside her clothes. I didn't see Comrade Fang do anything else." Lin Xia emphasized.
The man looked up at her when he heard this, a gleam in his eyes, "Did you hit her?"
Lin Xia paused for two seconds and replied coldly: "No."
"Please go out and call Comrade Fang to come in." The man raised his head, with a meaningful flash in his eyes.
Lin Xia nodded calmly, picked up the little guy and left the carriage.
The man left inside looked at her back in deep thought, with an ambiguous smile flashing in his eyes.
This little woman is very smart and also very pretty.
Fang Yang saw Lin Xia coming out and looked at her with worry in his eyes.
"The police officer asked you to come in." Lin Xia smiled at Fang Yang, found a seat and sat down. She had been holding the little guy in her arms and her hands were quite tired.
Not long after, the door opened and Fang Yang and the man walked out together.
"I'm done asking questions. You can go in." After the man finished asking questions, he was ready to turn around and leave.
"Wait, I want to ask if that lady will come back?" Lin Xia stopped people. Thinking of the greed in that woman's eyes, she always felt uncomfortable.
"Do you want her to come back?" The man didn't expect her to ask this, and asked back with deep meaning in his eyes.
"I don't want to." Lin Xia answered simply.
"Why?"
"Her eyes are not honest." Lin Xia told the truth. There was nothing to hide.
The man was surprised at her honesty. He nodded thoughtfully and left without answering whether the lady could come back.
Seeing this, Lin Xia could only take things one step at a time.
After that, Lin Xia and An An started a life of eating and sleeping. The old lady never came back, and no one came to this carriage again.
After talking with the Fang brothers and sisters, Lin Xia learned that the two were going to their relatives' home in the south. As for who the relatives were, the two did not say, but there was a hint of uneasiness on their faces.
Lin Xia knew that there was something unspeakable going on. It was normal for them not to talk about it since they just met by chance. She was not curious either, it was just that the ride in the car was too boring.
I ate the mung bean cake and red date cake I brought with me during the two-day journey whenever I had time. After sharing some with Fang Yuan and Fang Yang, I gradually finished them all.
There was nothing good to eat later on, so when it was time for lunch, Lin Xia started buying lunch boxes. Sure enough, the food on the train was more expensive than outside, but at least it didn't require a ticket.
Otherwise she felt it was not worth it, not because she felt sorry for the ticket, but because the taste was really average.
Even the little guy took a bite of the chicken leg and sighed, "Mom, this meat is not as delicious as yours!"
Lin Xia smiled, wiped the oil off the little guy's mouth, and promised: "I'll make it for you when we get to Daddy's place!"
"Great!" The little guy raised his hands and cheered when he heard it.
He frowned again, worried, "How long will it take for mom to get here? I'm so bored!"
"There's only one day left." She was also bored. The four or five days' drive was really uncomfortable. Fortunately, there was only one day left. She would arrive the day after tomorrow morning and then she would be able to see the man.
The train was slow at this time and stopped for a long time. She couldn't help but think of a TV series in her previous life. No wonder the heroine could travel everywhere on the train without buying a ticket. This train was really slow when it started.
In addition, the living conditions were poor and she could only wash her face and brush her teeth. She hadn't taken a shower for two or three days and she felt like she smelled.
The two, one big and one small, finished their meal listlessly and then lay on the bed telling stories boredly.
I fell asleep while listening.
Time passed slowly in boredom on the bus, and soon it was the last night. I would be able to get off the bus tomorrow morning.
The Fang siblings got off the bus during the day, so it seemed they were also in Guangdong Province.
After four or five days of suffering, Lin Xia and An An felt as listless as eggplants hit by frost.
Early the next morning.
Lin Xia and An An woke up early to pack their luggage. The food in the small bag had been almost finished, and only the bag for clothes was left, which was not heavy.
The two of them waited for the arrival of the station with great interest.
Lu Yuxiu was at the train station, patiently watching the arriving train.
He received a telegram from home two days ago, and immediately asked for leave, came to Guangzhou early, found a guesthouse to stay in, and thought that the car would arrive in the next two days, so he waited there.
I didn’t wait for anyone yesterday, but I should be there today.
Lu Yuxiu was a little excited, but also a little nervous.
He raised his hand to adjust his white military uniform, wanting to look his best when he met the little girl.
After waiting for more than an hour, the news of the train's arrival came over the radio.
Lu Yuxiu stood on the platform, watching the flow of people without blinking. As the crowd gradually thinned, he did not see the little girl and An An at all. He couldn't help feeling disappointed. Could it be that they were not arriving today?
But the departure train mentioned in the telegram is this train.
Is there any accident?
Lu Yuxiu's face changed, and he didn't dare to think too much about it. He strode towards the door of the sleeper car, wanting to take a look.
Lin Xia took the little one and waited at the door of the carriage. There were the most people at this time, and she wanted to wait until there were fewer people before going out.
It would be inconvenient for her to hold the child if she was carrying the bag, but the little one was short and would be easily squeezed in the crowd.
The two of them waited calmly inside for the crowd to thin out.
Little did he know that Lu Yuxiu outside was almost going crazy, fearing that something unexpected might happen on the road.
A trace of regret welled up in his heart. He shouldn't have rushed them over! He should have held back his longing and waited until he had a day off to pick them up!
I hurriedly ran from one carriage door to another, but still didn't see anyone.
Sudden.
In front of us, a girl holding a little girl appeared, with a man in uniform standing next to her. The two were talking and laughing about something.
He instantly recognized that it was the little girl, strode over and shouted, "Xiao Xia!"
Lin Xia was smiling and thanking Shen Yan, he was the man who had taken her statement before.
Just now he passed by the door of her carriage and saw that she didn't get off the car, so he asked. When he learned that she wanted to wait until there were fewer people before going out, he offered to carry her child and send her off.
Lin Xia agreed immediately upon hearing this, but she held the child herself and asked him to help her carry the bag.
Seeing this, the man picked up his bag and walked her out.
Seeing that there were fewer people outside, Lin Xia was about to put An An down and take the bag when she heard someone calling her.
When I looked up, I saw a white figure, standing tall and walking quickly towards me.
"Dad~" An An heard a familiar voice, turned his head and saw that it was really his dad, so he shouted excitedly.
Lu Yuxiu rushed forward and hugged the two of them tightly and forcefully.
"I can't breathe!" Lin Xia said with difficulty.
"I can't breathe either~" The little guy was sandwiched between the two people's arms, shouting after Lin Xia, but there was a hint of playful excitement in his baby voice.
Mom and Dad hug her so tight! So fun! Hehe~
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuxiu let go of the girl and then looked at the man standing aside with a bag in his hand.
When their eyes met, their expressions became deep and a dark light flashed in their eyes, as if they saw through each other's intentions.
