"Auntie, can I change seats with you?" The girl hesitated for a long time and finally said to the auntie opposite her.
"Change seats?" The old lady was stunned. "Why change seats? Aren't you sitting here perfectly still?"
"I want to lean against the window." The girl explained, smiling ingratiatingly, "Can we switch?"
The old lady was a little confused. If the girl wanted to sit by the window, couldn't she just switch seats with the boy next to him? Wouldn't it be redundant for him to switch seats with her?
But she didn't say anything, just nodded and agreed, "Ah...Okay, let's change."
"Thank you, Auntie." The girl smiled gratefully and hurriedly changed seats with her. After sitting opposite her, she finally breathed a sigh of relief without the oppressive feeling of Su Congwen.
Su Congwen glanced at her and seemed to realize something. He frowned, found a piece of clothing and wrapped the urn.
The train rumbled forward, and along the way, green mountains and clear waters passed by the window. Su Congwen kept looking out the window, and his eyes were even a little greedy. These scenes were extremely ordinary and common in the eyes of everyone, but in Su Congwen's eyes, they were everything he had been thinking about and longing to see day and night for the past three years.
There are a lot of people on the train. Nowadays, there are countless people running around outside, trying to make money. Especially under the current policies, countless people have risen from the mud, farmland, construction sites... and gone to all corners of the world to find ways to make money. For a time, the situation on the train has become even more serious with all kinds of people mixed together.
In a carriage, there are people from all over the place and doing all kinds of things. Good people and bad people are not clearly identified, so it is difficult to tell them apart. When going out, everyone is extremely careful. Money and valuables are always kept close to the body. They cannot sleep well at night for fear of encountering petty thieves.
Petty thefts are not a big deal, but I am afraid of other bad intentions, especially for beautiful girls, who are particularly easy to be targeted when they go out.
And on today's train, there were a few people who had bad intentions.
"How is it? Are you keeping an eye on it?" In a corner of the car, a man opened his eyes and asked calmly.
He has an ordinary appearance, but his eyes are filled with fierceness and anger.
Next to him was a thin young man with a gleam in his eyes. He whispered, "Brother, keep an eye on them."
"There are two people in this carriage of ours. I think they have something valuable on them." This is their jargon. Having something valuable means they have money and can be targets.
"Who?" the man asked.
The young man lowered his voice, "Right in front, in the second or third row, there's a man and a young woman. The young woman is wearing something you only see in places like Shanghai and Pengcheng. Even though it's covered by her clothes, I can clearly see she's wearing a gold necklace."
"And..." the young man smirked, "that woman is quite pretty."
The man's eyes lit up, and he became interested. "Go on."
"That girl has fair skin and delicate flesh. She must feel very slippery when touched." The young man smiled obscenely, his eyes salivating. "When the time comes, let you, big brother, take the first step, and then we will..."
"Very good." The man nodded with satisfaction. "Anything else?"
"There's another man sitting opposite the woman. Although he's dressed ordinary, he's holding a box in his hand. I think there's something good in it."
"Okay." After hearing his words, the man showed a wicked smile, "Today's target is them two."
"Go tell Biaozi to keep an eye on those two guys you mentioned. Take the opportunity when they go to the restroom to attack them," the man said. "There's been a lot of trouble lately, and the situation is tense. You should also be careful and don't run into the police."
"clear."
The young man looked around and quickly walked away.
The young girl sitting opposite Su Congwen had no idea that she was being stared at and was still talking enthusiastically to the old lady.
"I'm studying in Spring City, and I came home this time for something."
"Oh, so you're a college student?" The old lady was surprised after hearing the girl introduce herself. "I was thinking, you look like someone who has studied."
"It's great to be a college student. A college student brings honor to the family." The old lady said with some envy, "Where we live, it takes ten miles to produce one college student. They are so precious."
"That's not bad." The girl was a little embarrassed by the compliment. She smiled and said, "Now the policy is good, everyone has the opportunity to go to college. There will be more and more college students in the future."
"That's true." The old lady nodded in agreement. "If my family can produce a college student in the future, it will be a real blessing for our ancestors. I will have to go and burn incense to our ancestors every year and every festival."
"I will." The girl said with a smile.
"Then I'll take your good wishes." The old lady said happily.
"By the way, young man." The old lady was so happy chatting that she forgot Su Congwen's previous coldness and asked him, "What do you do?"
"I am also a college student." Su Congwen said, if there were no war, he would have graduated from college in another year.
Now, the identity of a college student seems a bit far away for him.
Is he also a college student?
The old lady was stunned for a moment, then nodded a little slowly, "You too."
Although she didn't say that she didn't believe it, there was a look of doubt in her eyes, mainly because the young man didn't look like a student.
The girl glanced at Su Congwen, then lowered her head, feeling disdainful. How could he be a college student with the looks he had?
"Isn't it only April? Your school is on vacation already?" The girl couldn't help but say, "Or, are you like me and have to go home for something?" Her tone was a little strange, obviously intentional.
"No." Su Congwen didn't want to say anything more.
The girl pouted and said, "Just brag, why try to be cool?"
Thinking of this, the fear she had felt towards Su Congwen just now was not much more.
"Hey, young man, what's in your box?" A middle-aged man sitting next to the girl suddenly asked Su Congwen curiously. He had been paying attention to him for a long time and couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
"nothing."
"What's there to hide? Could it be some kind of treasure?" the middle-aged man said angrily.
"How can something so secretive be a good thing?" The girl muttered softly, thinking her voice was very low. When she raised her head, she happened to meet Su Congwen's eyes.
His eyes were deep and cold.
The girl shuddered for no apparent reason and dared not speak.
After chatting for a while, the girl said to the old lady, "Auntie, I'm going to the toilet first. Could you please help me watch my things?" She brought a bag with her and carried a delicate small bag. The small bag was nothing special, but the bag was not convenient to carry to the toilet.
"Okay, no problem, go ahead." The old lady agreed readily, "I'll help you watch over it, nothing will happen."
"Thank you." The girl smiled gratefully.
She stood up and walked towards the toilet at the connection between the carriages.
When she stood up, the people who had been keeping an eye on her also moved and followed her.
Su Congwen looked up and frowned.
