She stared blankly at Jiang Xi closing the door again, then watched her fiddle with an unknown object in front of the door. Then she pulled Xiaoyu up and took two steps forward.
"What are you doing?"
Jiang Xi was not tinkering with it randomly. The copper core lock was easy to break but difficult to repair. She was now giving herself a second layer of insurance: breaking the lock.
In this way, when these beggars woke up the next day and found that something was wrong, they would not be able to get out unless they broke down the door.
When the door was broken, there was no car.
This time is enough for them to escape far away.
Jiang Xi threw away the hairpin that had been retired, clapped his hands and said, "Let's go."
Zhong Huier followed her closely, still holding Xiaoyu's hand, and asked hesitantly as they walked, "You...is that person okay?"
"I know my limits. After a night's sleep, it's just a mild concussion."
Jiang Xi said this nonchalantly. Zhong Huier couldn't help but glance at her again, thinking: Could it be that this high school student was once a gangster? He must be familiar with the place.
Sun Ting was waiting for her in the passenger seat. When she saw Jiang Xi come in, she handed over the car keys and said:
“No one can drive this car.”
This was a van used by the kidnappers to transport people. The two rows of long seats at the back had already been folded up by Sun Ting, who had boarded the vehicle earlier. The little kids were packed into the van, all looking at Jiang Xi with sparkling eyes.
Jiang Xi made a "hush" sound.
The little rascals nodded one after another, indicating: 123, don’t move, don’t laugh, and don’t say a word!
Seeing that the children were quiet, Jiang Xi climbed into the driver's seat with satisfaction and motioned for Zhong Huier and Sun Ting to switch places. "I'll drive. Sister Zhong, can you read a map? Let's get out of this village first."
Even if Jiang Xi said that he could fly now, Zhong Huier would probably believe it without hesitation, not to mention that driving is just a skill that can be learned by taking a class when you are old enough.
The huge roar of the accelerator sounded in the yard. Jiang Xi did not delay for a second. He released the handbrake, stepped on the clutch, stepped on the accelerator, and drove the car out directly as if he was an experienced driver who had driven for many years.
This area is full of wheat fields. It had just rained, and the yellow dirt road was left with two deep ruts by the vans whizzing past. The road was rutted and the wheels were in danger of sliding into the wheat fields beside the road at any time.
Sun Ting leaned against the window, watching with fear all the way.
If the car got stuck in the field, all their efforts would be wasted.
Zhong Huier was not worried at all. Jiang Xi had given her too many surprises today. No matter what happened next, she would not be startled again.
Sure enough, the van drove smoothly out of the village and turned onto a cement road.
Zhong Huier was not very good at reading maps, so the ten-year-old boy took over. The half-grown boy had a strong sense of direction, and under his guidance, Jiang Xi drove the car crookedly all the way out of Gui City.
The moment we left Gui City, there was a burst of loud cheers in the carriage.
Sun Ting jumped up and down, "I'm free! I'm free!"
The boy sat in the passenger seat, covering his eyes and crying silently.
Zhong Huier cried with joy.
The little kids seemed to understand but not quite, and were all confused and happy.
Jiang Xi saw it from the rearview mirror and couldn't help but smile. Her long and curly eyelashes seemed to bring up a starlight in the deep night.
What happened next was as smooth as if by God.
Jiang Xi drove directly to the police station in the neighboring city and handed all these little kids over to the police, asking them to help find their parents. Then he left.
"Aren't you going to wait here?"
Zhong Huier looked at her in surprise, and the hint of concern in her words made Jiang Xi's eyes smile.
She had no intention of investigating the reason why this person had howled in his past life. In extreme circumstances, people sometimes do things they themselves would never expect. Moreover, in this life, she had also used Zhong Huier, in a rather dishonorable way, thus ensuring her own safe escape—let it be even.
"No."
Jiang Xi waved her hand and walked out with big strides. She had borrowed the police station's phone before, but she couldn't get through to her parents, so she had to leave a message at her uncle's house. Now she couldn't wait any longer, otherwise, by the time her parents received the message, it would probably take a lot of time to go back and forth, so she might as well go home directly.
Sun Ting naturally stayed in the police station and waited for her parents to pick her up.
"Sister Jiang, Sister Jiang..."
Jiang Xi took big steps, and by the time he heard the call from behind, he had already walked far away from the police station.
She turned around and saw the boy who had been silent just now chasing her out, his hands on his knees and panting heavily. When he saw her turn around, he smiled, his clean face as delicate as a glass doll, and his voice was clear:
"Sister Jiang, my name is Gu Yunfei, remember that!"
