Chapter 162: Caught
Sleeper berths are quite expensive nowadays and are rarely fully occupied unless there are special events.
There were only about half of the passengers in the sleeper berth today. After the conductor helped them settle down, he said goodbye: "Relax, comrades. See you tomorrow morning."
Chu Hong also thought about it. They were going to the final stop, so there was really no need to rush.
After everyone left, Gu Ci came to her bedside and whispered with some guilt: "Actually, those things were not his in the first place. I could have given them to you."
Chu Hong held his hand and comforted him: "If I get it, I'm lucky. If I lose it, I'm dead. In the future, we can earn our own money and buy whatever we want."
I just don’t know if he will still remain true to his original intention after ten or twenty years.
When a man changes his heart, all the vows he made in the past will be blown away by the wind.
She only remembered one sentence: Men have very particular tastes and always like eighteen-year-old girls.
Whether they can live happily together until old age can only be determined on the day he dies.
When Chu Hong thought of this, the reluctance in her heart instantly disappeared.
She yawned and said, "Be good, it's late, go to bed early, who knows what will happen tomorrow?"
When Gu Ci heard her words, his face turned a little red. The same words played over and over again in his dreams, with her always coaxing him to be good.
Maybe because she was on the train, Chu Hong didn’t sleep as soundly as she did at home. When she woke up, she saw that it was still dim outside the window.
She looked at her watch and it was only six o'clock. She then looked at Gu Ci opposite her and saw that he was still sleeping, so she quietly got up.
When she came back from the bathroom, she saw Gu Ci coming out in a panic. When she saw that she was still standing in front of her, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Where have you been?"
Chu Hong was speechless: "People have three urgent things. Where did you say I went?"
Gu Ci also reacted and felt that he had said something stupid, and whispered: "I am just worried about you. I am afraid that person has accomplices."
He still felt a little nervous when he thought of the nightmare that was still fresh in his memory.
He didn't believe these things before, but maybe it's because he has seen so much now and he is a little in awe of them.
For example, when a child in the village has a fever, most people don’t give him medicine first, but instead make sure that the child saw something that frightened him?
Instead, it is important to "calm down the fright" first, using methods such as carrying a broom, a bowl of clean water, an old scale rod, hitting the wall with shoes, etc., each showing their own magical powers.
At first he thought to himself: What era is this?
He also heard that if you think about something during the day, you will dream about it at night. If you still remember the dream after waking up, it is very likely that you will be in trouble.
Previously, Gu Ci thought that this statement was completely unreasonable. What era is it now?
But now thinking about the nightmare that scared him before, Gu Ci was really afraid that something might happen to Chu Hong.
He would rather believe it than not. He suspected that his previous knowledge was too limited. He had to listen to the old man so as not to suffer a loss.
Seeing that he didn't look very well, Chu Hong thought that he was also worried about her, so she tried to comfort him in a gentle voice: "I'm really fine. We may be arriving at the station soon. Why don't you go wash up first?"
Anyway, she is used to train delays and being late.
When I bought the train ticket, the conductor told me that I would arrive at the terminal at around 4 or 5 in the morning.
But it’s already past six o’clock and we haven’t reached the station yet.
Seeing that she was fine in front of him, Gu Ci felt relieved and went to the toilet first, then came back to get a basin and water for her to wash.
When they finished washing up and were about to go to the dining car, the leader they had met last night came over.
Behind him was He Wen, who was obviously frightened.
The leader saluted them first and said, "Comrades, thanks to your caution, we have found a clue in the case we have been pursuing."
He said some more words of thanks, and finally took out two envelopes and handed them to them with both hands: "Those criminals have not been arrested yet. For your safety, we will not publish a commendation."
"There is a letter of praise inside. If you encounter any problems in the future, you can come to our railway department for help, or go to the local commune for help. We will do our best to help if we can."
"There is also some money and tickets as a token of our appreciation to you. Please accept them."
When Gu Ci heard this, it was exactly what he wanted.
He was really afraid that his nightmare would come true if it got out.
So he looked at Chu Hong, wondering if she would have any objections.
God knows, after hearing what the leader said, Chu Hong felt uneasy and immediately said, "Thank you for your thoughtful consideration for us."
I bowed to him and said: "You are the real heroes. You uphold justice and protect the people. All this is to protect us."
Until those people are caught, she will definitely keep her mouth shut, forget what happened last night, and never mention it again.
Otherwise she would be worried that it was not an honor, but a death warrant.
Fortunately, she didn't touch those things, otherwise she would be afraid that she would live to take them but not to spend them.
She also took the opportunity to gain some goodwill, saying righteously: "It is everyone's responsibility to fight against criminals and create a peaceful society."
Anyway, even if I feel scared inside, I can't show it.
The leader was very satisfied with Chu Hong's attitude: "Good comrade, you are highly conscious and well-spoken. I think you must have been educated. You can consider working in the propaganda department of the local commune."
This is also a kind of commitment.
If Chu Hong really wanted to go, he would also help recommend her.
Chu Hong said shyly but insisted: "Thank you, leader. I am already the village women's director. I think protecting women and children is also a very meaningful thing."
The leader sincerely praised her: "Well done, you are also a role model for your colleagues to learn from."
Chu Hong thought: If I go to the commune, there will be too many leaders who will be in charge of me and can arrange things for me, so it will be difficult to be lazy.
It would be better for him to stay in the village and act arrogantly because his father is the party secretary?
The leader praised Gu Ci again and said that He Wen wanted to come and thank them in person. In the end, he insisted on leaving the money, tickets, and a letter of praise before leaving.
As soon as the leader left, He Wen stepped forward, bowed, and choked up to say thank you: "Thank you for saving me. I will never forget your life-saving grace..."
Chu Hong walked over and helped her sit down, then patted her shoulder soothingly: "I'm glad you're okay, this is what we should do."
I was afraid that she had a problem and felt that they had not reminded her. I explained carefully that I only realized something was wrong when I was about to eat candy.
The main concern was that He Wen would get too obsessed and think that they were stepping on her to gain merit.
He Wen was also a person who knew what was good for her. She held her hand with gratitude and said, "I know everything. They all told me."
Thinking about the fact that they had found out from interrogation that Wu Xiaoming and his people had taken away quite a few women from the train, he felt lucky that he had met a noble person.
She spoke incoherently with sobs, and finally couldn't help but burst into tears.
Chu Hong also turned pale after hearing this.
No matter how much I have seen through various channels in the past, I feel that I will never be so unlucky to encounter such a thing in my lifetime.
But now, it really happened to her, and she almost became a victim, so she was glad that she was cautious enough.
She now keeps in mind that it is never too cautious for a girl to be outside.
