Chapter 491
When the car started, Su Miao just started eating breakfast.
"Comrade! Comrade flight attendant! My husband hasn't gotten on the train yet! Can you please wait a moment?"
Suddenly, an anxious shout broke the silence in the carriage.
"What did your husband do when he got out of the car? There are strict driving hours, and now the car has already started, there's no way he can stop!"
The flight attendant asked with a frown, thinking: The horn was honked so loudly before driving, and they shouted several times, how come there are still people who haven't gotten on the bus!
When the passengers in the car heard the conversation, they all looked at him with concern.
The woman's eyes were red with anxiety. She clutched the flight attendant's arm tightly and cried, "He just went down to buy some noodles and said he'd be back soon. What should I do?"
The child, Aqing, seemed to have sensed something was wrong. His originally excited face instantly fell, and he burst into tears: "Dad, Dad..."
The flight attendant thought for a moment and said:
"Once the train starts moving, it can't stop at will, let alone to pick him up. Don't worry, I'll contact the platform and see if we can arrange for him to get on the next car. Does he have his ID with him?"
The woman nodded quickly: "Yes, I brought it! He has all the IDs. He also has my ID and ticket."
"Okay, don't worry, I'll report the situation to the higher-ups." After comforting her with a few words, the flight attendant turned around and left in a hurry.
After the flight attendant left, the woman was so restless holding her child that the passengers in the same cabin tried to comfort her.
"It's okay. The station will definitely find a way. At worst, you can just take the next bus."
"Yeah, he's such a big guy, you can't get lost. At most, you and the child can get to the station first and wait for him."
The woman said with a sad face, "We told him not to go, and now he really can't make it! Even my child and I have our IDs with him. When we get off the bus, we won't even be able to stay in a hotel."
"Don't worry, let's see how the station arranges it. If that doesn't work out, let the station arrange for you to stay in the station's guesthouse."
There were also some people who just wanted to watch the fun and took advantage of the situation. They stood far away, eating melon seeds and talking about this sudden incident.
"Look, just to eat a bowl of noodles, he even left his wife and children behind."
"Before the doors closed, the attendant yelled for everyone to get on board, but he didn't hear it? He was so engrossed in his eating?"
"If you ask me, his wife isn't a smart person either. When the door was about to close and she saw her husband hadn't returned, she should have told the flight attendant immediately and gone out to get him back!"
"Maybe it's too late. She's carrying a child. Who would have thought?"
After about an hour, two train attendants came over and said to the woman, "Comrade, we have contacted the station and they will arrange for your husband to take another train to Beijing.
However, the driving time is 4 hours later than ours, so you will have to wait for him at the station."
"Okay, thank you! Thank you! Does that mean he can only sit in the hard seat?"
The attendant laughed and said, "The tickets were sold out a long time ago. Someone like him, who squeezed in at the last minute, was lucky to have a place to stand, not to even think about sitting. Well, at least we were able to get him there in the end. We'll learn from our mistakes in the future."
Another morning passed. The two men facing Su Miao rarely moved around. Except for going to the toilet and eating, they stayed in bed.
When eating, we take turns to get food from the dining car and bring it back to eat, and there is always someone left to watch the luggage.
However, most people pay attention to their luggage in this way, so this behavior does not seem out of place.
They stopped at noon. Perhaps the stalls didn't have what they wanted to eat, so the taller man went to the dining car to get some food.
When he came back, he didn't have any food in his hands. He looked extremely nervous and said to his companions anxiously:
"Ah Zhang is feeling very uncomfortable in the carriage over there. The situation seems to be quite serious. We have to go over and take a look!"
The man who was originally hiding in the middle bunk heard it and quickly climbed down, dragging two luggage bags, as if he had received some signal.
The two of them quickly scanned the carriage and finally landed on Su Yuanzheng.
One of them, with a big smile on his face, picked up one of the bags and said in an urgent and pleading tone:
"Brother, our bag is a bit heavy and it's inconvenient to carry it over. Could you please help us watch it for a while? It'll only be a short while, we'll be back soon."
Su Yuan hesitated subconsciously for a moment, but before he could speak, Su Miao on the upper bunk quickly said:
"Brothers, it's better to carry your own things when you go out. You should take both bags. Your friend isn't feeling well, so you might need to stay with him for a while."
When Su Yuanzheng heard his daughter say this, he immediately agreed, "Yes, you should take them all."
The smiles on the two men's faces froze for a moment, a hint of displeasure flashed in their eyes, but they quickly adjusted their expressions and turned to look at Aunt Tan.
They walked over to Aunt Tan, took out a can from their luggage bag, and handed it to her, their words full of flattery:
"Sister Tan, you're such a kind person. Please help us with the packaging. This can is a thank you."
Aunt Tan was a little hesitant at first, but when she looked at the can handed to her and heard them say they would only be away for a short while, she took the can and nodded in agreement.
Hearing the other party's thanks, Aunt Tan smiled and felt that she had done a good thing.
Su Miao felt vaguely uneasy, always feeling that the behavior of these two people was strange. What was the difference between carrying one bag and two bags? Why did they need others to help watch over them?
She and Su Yuanzheng looked at each other, and neither of them spoke anymore, just silently paying attention to the luggage bag.
About half an hour later, there was a steady and powerful sound of footsteps in the carriage, and the older attendant and two railway police officers walked in with serious expressions.
The attendant stood still and shouted, "Passengers, please pay attention! We are going to conduct a temporary ticket inspection.
Please bring your tickets and personal ID with you. We will verify each one individually. Please cooperate."
The attendant's voice was loud and clear, carrying throughout the entire carriage.
As soon as the voice fell, everyone began to take out their tickets and IDs, and some passengers complained:
"Why are you checking the car again? I checked it twice before getting in. I stuffed it in my bag, and now you have to dig it out again."
The flight attendants and police began to check tickets carefully. This time the ticket check was different from the previous ones and was very detailed.
For some people who were not at their assigned positions, the police also carefully asked the people around them where they had been, whether they were male or female, and what their characteristics were. It seemed as if they were looking for someone.
The police officers had sharp eyes. In addition to observing the passengers, they also carefully scanned the luggage on the shelves, not missing any details. The atmosphere in the carriage suddenly became tense, and everyone had a vague feeling that something seemed to have happened.
