Chapter 39 The Missing School Uniform



On the afternoon of March 20th, the fifteenth year of the new calendar, in Morning Breeze City.

The weather at this time is not very good, or rather, the weather has been rather gloomy these past two days. Although there was a thunderstorm last night, the sky is still as blue-gray as an iron curtain.

In front of the bus stop, Liang Chuan was waiting for the vehicle to the company as usual.

He was feeling a little anxious because it wasn't long before work time. If the bus couldn't arrive within three minutes, based on his daily experience, his attendance rate for the day would probably be ruined.

You know, full attendance is linked to salary! Once the price of full attendance is missing, it will bring a greater degree of economic hardship to him who is not rich.

Not to mention that there was his nephew's school uniform in his briefcase, which he forgot to bring today, so he had to deliver it himself, which would take a lot of time.

So Liang Chuan is very impatient now.

He frequently took out his cell phone to check the time, trying to gauge how much free time he had left to wait for the bus. At the same time, he was also considering whether to use the free time to continue waiting for the bus or spend some money to take a taxi.

Taking a look at the large shopping mall sign hanging next to him and looking at the smiling female star on it, Liang Chuan once again felt the disparity of life.

Sometimes reality is so cruel. It is just like what some people say, some people are born in Rome, while some people are born mules and horses.

I always feel that no matter how hard I try, it's just this...

It’s better to go home and not think about anything. Staying at home and playing games is the happiest time.

With a sigh, Liang Chuan decided to walk two more stops forward.

There were few pedestrians on the sidewalk next to the platform, which was completely unlike the usual crowds. This was extremely abnormal for a commercial street that was usually packed with people.

The two streets next to it were so noisy, but on this road, not even one person passed by me. There was only an empty crosswalk stretching across the concrete ground.

At this moment, no matter how slow Liang Chuan was, he realized that something was wrong.

He glanced around warily, holding his briefcase tightly with both hands.

"What's going on?" Liang Chuan thought to himself, "What happened?"

I always feel it’s so quiet.

There were no people from the commercial street on the streets.

Is it because there is a promotion nearby, or is there an event being held nearby?

Liang Chuan stood next to the bus stop, feeling a little flustered for no reason.

Should I run now? This thought subconsciously crossed Liang Chuan's mind.

Soon, driven by fear, this idea took root and sprouted, until it occupied his entire mind.

Run! You must run!

With this in mind, Liang Chuan clutched his briefcase tightly and left the bus stop carefully and cautiously.

Just when he was about to run away.

Suddenly, Liang Chuan seemed to vaguely hear the sound of a bus.

From some distant place, the bus I was waiting for seemed to be arriving at the station soon, and the door would open in a few seconds...

Great, I can finally leave! Liang Chuan thought to himself.

He breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling fortunate that he had finally been able to escape from this strange situation.

Soon, the bus arrived at the station.

In the fog, the door of the bus slowly opened. Something seemed to be breathing in and out the evening air inside, and it was dark and gloomy inside.

Is this... the bus I used to take? Looking at the strange bus in front of him, Liang Chuan once again felt something was wrong.

The fear was aroused more and more fiercely, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, coiling around his neck, wrapping around his body bit by bit, and the slippery touch brought goose bumps to his skin...

Liang Chuan, with panic strangling his throat, felt a little breathless.

The bus in front of him seemed to have some kind of magical power. Even just looking at it made him feel a kind of primitive fear.

It even made him feel... that he would be eaten by this thing!

The chest rose and fell faster, the panic in Liang Chuan's eyes gradually spread, and his heart rate also accelerated to the speed of a drum...

Then, the next second.

A voice came from beside Liang Chuan: "Please sit down."

The voice said calmly: "'Bus Route 13' is a species without thinking. Strictly speaking, it will only follow specific rules to harm humans.

"However, if you show an intention to get in the car, such as standing up like you are now, then it will lure you into the car and then skin you and dismember you in the car."

This voice was like a handful of cold water in the hot summer, which immediately woke Liang Chuan up from his panic hallucination.

He was breathing heavily and sat down in the waiting area almost immediately, his face full of relief at surviving the disaster.

Opposite him, the strange bus slowly left after not picking up any passengers for a long time.

When it came, it seemed to come from the distant sky. When it left, it was accompanied by a strange and light car whistle, and gradually faded into the air.

Only when he saw the car disappear with his own eyes did Liang Chuan collapse completely.

At this time, a bottle of water was handed over: "Drink some water."

The person who reminded him before whispered: "Drink some water, then take a deep breath and slowly calm your emotions."

Taking the bottle of water, Liang Chuan unscrewed the cap with trembling hands and poured it directly into his mouth.

“Ahem…”

He even choked because he drank too fast.

Finally, after drinking a bottle of water and resting for a while, Liang Chuan regained his composure.

Only at this time did he have the leisure to take a look at the person next to him.

He was a male student who looked young. His skin was very white, even a little sickly white. His clothes were also strange. Even though it was not too hot today, it was definitely not cold. However, he was still wearing a black windbreaker, a gray shirt underneath, and a thick scarf around his neck.

This is a very strange person, and he is "incomprehensible" from any angle.

After hesitating for a moment, Liang Chuan lowered his head and said to the man: "Thank you very much for your help..."

Although he didn't know what had just happened, he inexplicably felt that if this person had not warned him, he would probably have gotten on the bus in a daze.

As for what would happen when he got on the bus? Liang Chuan felt terrified just thinking about it, and his legs were shaking.

Facing Liang Chuan's thanks, the man just smiled and nodded: "Don't worry about it."

"I was just curious at first," he said in a gentle voice, which gradually calmed Liang Chuan's heart. "According to what I saw, Bus No. 13 was originally the judge's assistant of the Witch and should have been in Yanzhou City, but I didn't expect it to appear in Morningwind City."

"Well, this is very interesting. It seems that in the area that I haven't seen, the sand is slowly being piled up into a tower."

Listening to that person's words, Liang Chuan felt very confused.

I don’t know why. Even though this person speaks the same language as me, I just can’t understand what he means.

But he probably understood that this person seemed to be lamenting that something was beyond his expectations.

So he said nothing and just listened silently.

Soon, the man turned around and looked at Liang Chuan.

"It seems that you were originally its prey," the man smiled. "That's right. After all, wild animals hunt according to their appetite. You do have a smell that makes it salivate."

I... am the prey of that thing? Hearing this, Liang Chuan was confused again.

He didn't know how to describe how he felt now. He always felt that fear, confusion and bewilderment were gathered together, like a tangled ball of wool.

The man stood up, patted his clothes, and said meaningfully: "Yes, its target was originally you."

"The sweetness of human beings when they let themselves go and indulge in self-degradation is most likely to make some irrational monsters feel refreshing and refreshing."

Looking at Liang Chuan, the man smiled and said, "Just like you now, for that bus, you are a top-notch meal, no less than humans witnessing the delicacies of the mountains displayed in front of them and lining up to jump into their throats."

Such a metaphor made Liang Chuan feel a chill.

He originally wanted to refute that he was not letting himself go and falling into depravity, but when he thought of his previous state of mind, he couldn't say any more words of rebuttal.

I had been planning to go home and play games, so I really can’t be called ambitious…

As if seeing Liang Chuan's frustration, the man smiled.

"Don't worry too much about it," he said. "Since the No. 13 bus has already attacked you, it probably won't have any impact on you next time."

"That thing is a dead thing. It has no desire for revenge or retaliation. It's over and done with."

"All you need to do is maintain a good attitude and find some hobbies that you like."

As he spoke, the man patted the air and said, "Of course, the most important thing is to be cautious. If you pay more attention in the future, you will be able to avoid possible dangers."

After seeing that person's actions.

Liang Chuan finally couldn't help himself this time and said hesitantly: "Um... I'm sorry."

He pointed at himself. "You might have been talking to me, right? But you were heading... in the other direction?"

Yes.

Just now, although they talked so much, that person was always facing the side of Liang Chuan.

It was as if there was another Liang Chuan in that direction.

After hearing this, the man was slightly stunned.

The next second, he said to Liang Chuan apologetically: "I'm so sorry."

He pointed to his eyes and said, "I have been observing the future recently, so images of different timelines are constantly appearing in front of my eyes. Maybe just now, you were standing in that position a few minutes later, and I mistakenly thought you were there too."

He shook his head and sighed: "So, time is really wonderful..."

As he spoke, he patted the non-existent dust on his clothes, and finally found the right direction and patted Liang Chuan's shoulder.

"Have a good rest," he said tolerantly, "There's no need to worry too much about those annoying things. Keep a good attitude."

After saying this, he left.

Liang Chuan was left standing there alone with a complicated expression on his face.

He really didn't expect that one day he would be taught a lesson by someone younger than him...

Shaking his head, he felt that what happened today was truly magical.

Suddenly, however, he felt as if the inside of his briefcase was thinning.

"Huh?" He felt a little puzzled, "Where is my nephew's school uniform?"

Why did it suddenly disappear?  I haven't written well in the past two days, so I will update to make up for it.
