When Gou Fugui heard the gasps of shock mixed with curiosity, disbelief mixed with disbelief, and a hint of schadenfreude mixed with disbelief from inside the carriage, his expression froze.
The ticket inspector's expression went blank for a moment before he instinctively tried to enter the carriage to check the situation, but was grabbed by the wealthy and beautiful woman.
"Ticket inspector, don't go! You're checking my ticket right now. It's windy and rainy outside, so it's very cold. Please check my ticket first!"
The ticket inspector hesitated for a moment: "But the husky..."
Gou Fugui interrupted him directly: "What husky? How could a husky be here? Just think about it, with a husky's intelligence that only destroys houses and its tendency to run away, how could it possibly overcome all the obstacles, evade all the checks, and accurately locate this car and flip the window!"
"Even if we assume, hypothetically, that a husky actually comes along, do you think it could successfully climb into the car?"
The ticket inspector thought about the huskies he knew and stopped in his tracks.
Seeing this, the wealthy beauty delivered the final blow: "Besides, isn't it quiet inside now? There's no commotion. If a husky really came, how could it be so quiet?"
"Brother, hurry up and get your ticket checked. After you get on the train, you can check each compartment one by one, right?"
This finally convinced the ticket inspector, who listened carefully and confirmed that there were no other sounds, so he finally resumed checking tickets.
While checking tickets, he also reviewed all the special incidents that had occurred during his six years of work. There were passengers who secretly brought hamsters and kittens into the station, but there had never been a case of someone smuggling a husky.
So, he probably misheard; there was no husky climbing on the car.
...
But why does something still feel off?!
Because of the emergency backup provided by the wealthy and beautiful woman, the ticket inspector didn't immediately enter the carriage to check the situation. However, after Gou Fugui finished his ticket check and entered the carriage, his first glance was at the window Xie Tianlang had opened.
There was no one by the window now, and the window itself was closed as usual. There was no silly yet handsome husky pawing and kicking its legs at the window, and no other animals watching the commotion outside.
There wasn't even any trace of mud or rainwater around the window, making it seem like no way to smuggle people across the border.
Just as Gou Fugui reached the window, the door to the No. 5 soft sleeper compartment opposite him opened. Jin Mantang waved quickly at him from the doorway, but Gou Fugui's gaze passed over Jin Mantang's body and saw the pathetic, hind-legged idiot lying on the floor.
Even though he's now rich and doesn't have the bloodline bonus of the irritable badger, his anger and blood pressure spiked the moment he saw this husky.
Gou Fugui strode into the private room and was about to point and yell at the stupid hamster lying on the floor. It turned out that the stupid hamster seemed to know that it had dragged the team down and caused trouble. Although it didn't have the alertness of a German Shepherd or the intelligence of a Labrador, it was particularly good at wagging its tail and begging for mercy.
It flicked its tail like a windmill to curry favor, while covering its eyes with its two paws and whimpering.
That standard kneeling posture of admitting fault and fawning actually prevented the hot-tempered, wealthy beauty from uttering the scolding she was about to give. In the end, she could only utter a single word in exasperation:
"snort!"
It's clear that Ha has its own survival skills; it hasn't survived this long solely because it's stupid. At least it's also cowardly.
The wealthy beauty looked down on the cowardly man and, not wanting to be bothered, turned to Jin Mantang: "I heard someone shouting outside, how did you handle it? How many people saw this stupid dog?"
Jin Mantang smiled wryly upon hearing this: "This husky is lucky. Only two people saw it, a young couple."
"Team Leader Xie was the first to come up. As soon as he opened the window, the cats and two little squirrels climbed in. Then the two teddy bears were carried in by the neck by the German Shepherd, which was also very quick. The remaining three large dogs, the German Shepherd, the little Lara, and the husky, were a bit more troublesome, but the German Shepherd and the little Lara were both trained, and they jumped quickly and steadily, succeeding on their first try."
Finally, only the husky was left. It jumped three times in a row but failed to get onto the car. It finally managed to jump and cling to the window frame. Just as Captain Xie was pulling its paw, the two incredibly fast-moving couple spotted it.
"The lady exclaimed in surprise on the spot. Fortunately, Sanchuan, Brother Qin, and I were right behind them. Brother Qin blocked the door for a moment, and Captain Xie quickly pulled Erha up and stuffed him into the private room. The people behind us didn't see anything."
“I was afraid the couple would report me, so I followed them to their private room hoping to show some ‘human compassion for animal protection.’ It turned out that the lady also liked animals. They didn’t ask me for money; they just wanted to stop by our private room on the way to pet the husky. Of course, I agreed.”
"Moreover, their room number six is next to our room number five. We'll have Brother Qin and Brother Hu switch rooms with the two people opposite them, so we can deal with that guy when he comes up to check."
"I guess you could say it turned a bad thing into a good thing."
After hearing Jin Mantang's account of what happened, Gou Fugui felt relieved.
He was indeed worried about the ticket inspector checking each compartment later. Although he could use money or force to persuade him, it wasn't guaranteed to succeed and might even backfire, so it was better to keep it hidden.
Only then did the wealthy beauty finally relax and sit down to rest. But as soon as she sat down, she met Xie Tianlang's sharp and bright eyes and felt a little guilty.
I also felt that my scalp and back were hairy.
But after a moment of nervousness, the wealthy beauty turned her head away. The more nervous you are with a wolf like Xie Tianlang, the easier it is for him to see through your weakness. At this time, you have to be tough and stand up to him!
As long as he didn't directly transform from a living human into Honey Badger Fugui in front of Xie Langren, he didn't believe that this guy could imagine that he could transform and wasn't a human anymore!
So the wealthy and beautiful woman slightly raised her chin, her pretty phoenix eyes fixed straight at Xie Langren across from her. The two stared at each other across a small table, and a subtle atmosphere inexplicably rose in the private room.
The atmosphere made Jin Mantang and Song Sanchuan in the private room feel uncomfortable. They felt their presence was becoming stronger and stronger, even somewhat obstructive. They had to do something to break this strange atmosphere!
Song Sanchuan coughed lightly: "So, how are we going to get the black husky and the little panda to the next private room later?"
Two squirrels can be put in a pocket, four cats or even two teddy bears can be stuffed into a blanket or backpack to get away with it, but three large dogs are not easy to hide.
“Speaking of which!” Jin Mantang chuckled. “I have two spare large cloth bags that can hold the German Shepherd and the Labrador. The Siberian Husky can be carried through the window in the large suitcase of Brother Fugui.”
"But after the ticket inspector leaves, we need to stall him a bit, make sure he doesn't go to room number six right away, and give Brother Qin and Brother Hu some time to bring the dogs back."
Gou Fugui thought there was nothing wrong with the method, except that it required a bit of arm strength from the person implementing it.
Without the added advantage of a superhuman bloodline, he couldn't possibly lift a husky with one hand and send it through the car window to the next compartment. But when he glanced at the forearm of the werewolf opposite him, its smooth, muscular build seemed to proclaim its owner's strength.
Xie Tianlang noticed Gou Fugui's gaze as he looked at his arm. He didn't show off anything particularly proudly. Instead, he gave the beautiful and wealthy woman a very handsome smile, picked up the stainless steel train tray next to him, and gently squeezed one corner of the small stainless steel tray into a small twist.
The wealthy beauty: "..."
He's now really eager to check what quirky and adorable strongmen he can transform into in his "Cute Things Handbook".
Otherwise, I always feel cold all over, as if something is about to be lost.
Three minutes after the werewolf silently demonstrated his power, the train finally began to move slowly forward.
Jin Mantang, who had gone outside to get some fresh air, saw the neatly dressed ticket inspector close the train door. He was standing in front of the first soft sleeper compartment in carriage number three, preparing to start checking tickets compartment by compartment. Perhaps he was also looking for any possible huskies along the way?
Jin Mantang whistled and winked at Song Sanchuan in the private room. The three people in the room quickly emptied Gou Fugui's suitcase, opened the two large cloth bags, and hurriedly packed the black dog, the Labrador, and the husky into the suitcase. Later, because there was still room in the suitcase, they also stuffed the two teddy bears in.
Then Xie Dali, the werewolf, lifted the three suitcases and bags containing the dogs out the window and handed them to Qin Feng, who was already leaning out of the next window and waiting with his hand outstretched.
As the captain of the second team of the Doomsday Rescue Team, if it weren't for Xie Werewolf, an existence beyond the realm of normal people, Captain Qin would definitely be a formidable figure. At least he could carry a husky with one hand without any problem, and even adding two more teddy bears wouldn't be a problem at all.
Team Leader Qin quickly brought the dogs to their compartment number six, while the ticket inspector, who was knocking on each door, politely knocked on the door of compartment number five where Gou Fugui and his group were.
"Hello? Ticket check."
Before opening the door, the wealthy and beautiful woman looked around the entire soft sleeper compartment one last time.
Two little squirrels were in Song Sanchuan's pocket, while the orange cat and calico cat each hid in the middle of the neatly folded blankets on the upper bunk, forming a small bulge. The black cat and the cow-patterned cat, because their colors and patterns were too eye-catching, were put into Gou Fugui's black backpack and tucked directly into Xie's black raincoat.
Meanwhile, the silly bird stood by the window, preening its nearly bald feathers, pretending to be just an insignificant bird passing by.
Everything was perfect.
Gou Fugui opened the car door.
"Hey bro, the ticket check's here. These are the tickets for the three of us."
The ticket inspector scanned the entire compartment as soon as he entered. There were some water stains on the floor, but that was normal, since everyone had boarded the train in the rain. The sheets on the bunk beds were clean, and there were some clothes piled on one of the beds, but no strange animal footprints.
He glanced up at the upper bunk of the compartment, where, of course, there wasn't a huge husky lying. Although the two folded blankets looked a little bulging, any normal person would know that it was impossible for a husky to be hiding there.
If you were to hide a husky under a blanket, the blanket would have to be swollen up like a giant steamed bun.
The ticket inspector quickly looked through the seemingly normal compartment, then carefully examined the three people's ID cards and tickets, and finally determined that there was no problem.
So he nodded to Gou Fugui, said "Excuse me" and turned to leave the private room.
Just as Gou Fugui was about to close the door to the private room, the young man suddenly turned around and looked down sharply at the area under the beds of the two soft sleeper berths on either side!
For some reason, the ticket checker felt something was off about this room, so he made a surprise check under the bed – that was his last stand! After all, it's the easiest place to hide.
His attempt to return to his original position failed; the space under the sleeper berth was empty.
The ticket inspector straightened up a little embarrassedly, meeting the eyes of Gou Fugui, Song Sanchuan, and Xie Tianlang, who were all staring at him silently. He immediately felt guilty.
"Uh, sorry, we heard someone say earlier that the husky was climbing on the car, right? I was just worried and wanted to check. Now it seems like we probably misheard that."
Looking at the embarrassed ticket inspector with a flushed face, Gou Fugui remembered that the husky that was climbing on the bus next door was indeed there. His conscience wouldn't allow him to criticize this honest young man any further.
So he sincerely shook the ticket inspector's hand: "I know, I understand! It's all for the safety of the passengers! You are a very responsible and good flight attendant, it's okay, we understand!"
These words deeply moved the ticket inspector. As he walked out of compartment number five, he said even more sincerely, "Serving the people! I'm in charge of the safety and affairs of this compartment. If you need anything, you can find me in the conductor's office at the front!"
Gou Fugui nodded seriously: "Okay, okay, no problem."
So the ticket inspector left, deeply moved. He was about to knock on the door of compartment number six when Jin Mantang, sitting by the window, stopped him: "Hey, sir, you haven't checked my ticket yet! I'm also from compartment number five. My name is Jin Mantang. Isn't my name especially auspicious and noble?"
The conscientious and responsible ticket inspector would certainly not miss any passenger, let alone a good passenger who takes the initiative to have their ticket checked and has a high level of awareness.
So he naturally turned around to check Jin Mantang's train ticket and ID card, and then inexplicably, like a chatterbox, he chatted with Jin Mantang for several minutes. Just when he was about to reveal the name of the stock he had bought, he realized, what was all this about?!
"Ahem, Mr. Jin, I'll ask you about the investment later. I have to go get my ticket checked now. I also need to report to the train conductor later."
Of course, he also had to carefully check if there were any huskies in the remaining five compartments of the sleeper car. He felt like he had a husky inside him if he didn't check them one by one, and that husky was jumping around and trying to get his attention.
At this moment, Jin Man had already received Gou Fugui's hand signal and said with a smile, "That's right, that's right, I can't delay your work! You go ahead, young man, just come to me later if you have any investment questions!"
The ticket inspector left happily, having encountered only warm and polite passengers on this trip!
Thinking this, he knocked on the door of private room number six and immediately saw four people sitting neatly inside, smiling at him.
"..." The ticket inspector suddenly felt uneasy, as if something was wrong again.
But the ticket inspector still couldn't find the husky in the compartment. Even after checking all ten soft-sided compartments in the entire carriage, he still couldn't see the husky that had been screaming. Finally, he went to the window and looked at the empty railway, thinking that he must have really misheard.
Just like that long-haired guy said, how could a stupid and cowardly dog like a husky possibly climb up a car window?
Even if it manages to climb up, it definitely won't be able to get on the car!
The train conductor then left happily and reassured.
The atmosphere in VIP rooms number five and six, which passed the inspection, was also quite pleasant.
The woman who screamed and exclaimed in delight quickly rushed from booth number six to booth number five, her eyes sparkling with excitement as she wanted to pet the dog.
When she discovered that the magical No. 5 box contained not only big and small dogs, but also four cats, two squirrels, and even a bird, the woman felt as if she had entered a plush paradise!
"Oh my god, honey! We've hit the jackpot! I usually have to pay fifty yuan to go to a cat cafe!!" Now we can pet all these cats, dogs, and mice as much as we want!
Her young and refined husband stood to the side, giving Gou Fugui and the others an awkward smile that made them laugh along.
The journey went smoothly after that. Although the heavy rain and strong winds that night shattered the car windows and caused the car to stop temporarily for an hour the next morning due to the heavy rain, they still managed to reach the transit station, Ning City, without incident.
There was no need to go through security again when transferring trains, so Gou Fugui and his companions simply carried their suitcases and backpacks and boarded the train from Ning City to Qingchuan City.
The ticket inspector in carriage number three, who was traveling with the tourist bus, was also transferring trains. Midway through the journey, he noticed the suitcases Gou Fugui and his companions were carrying and paused, surprised. He remembered that when he checked tickets yesterday, this long-haired young man didn't seem to have this large suitcase and two large cloth bags.
The ticket inspector was completely bewildered. Before his questions could be answered, the train from Ning City to Qingchuan had to make an emergency stop after traveling about a third of the way.
As the train was about to pass through a mountain tunnel, the tunnel was completely flooded and even collapsed from the middle due to heavy rain.
The train conductor urgently requested help but found that the distress signal was interrupted in the mountains. There was no village or shop in sight, and the mountains next to them could collapse at any time. Staying in the train was the most dangerous option.
Fortunately, the next stop is 80 kilometers ahead from here.
At this point, all passengers on this train bound for Qingchuan City must disembark and walk to Hailan Station in Qingchuan Province.
Then, the conscientious ticket inspector of carriage number three saw the considerate and enthusiastic passengers from compartments five and six emerge from the carriage, and then…
One by one, they opened their suitcases or backpacks and released the fare-dodging monsters inside.
When the husky, with its tail swishing like a windmill and its head bobbing as if mocking or showing off, bounced right in front of him, the ticket inspector clutched his chest in anguish.
What happened to the trust between people?! Ugh!!
