Chapter 285: Tricking a Dog to Kill
Unexpectedly, Fan Licheng's face turned serious, and he said solemnly: "Forget about the other things, some of the goods in there belong to my mother. If they are gone, my mother will definitely be angry!"
Gao Mingcheng's mind moved, and he made some guesses, so he deliberately asked, "Then what do you think we should do? I sleep in the car, and you sleep in the hotel?"
Fan Licheng shook his head and said, "Let's all sleep in the car."
Gao Mingcheng glanced at him and said indifferently: "Okay, as long as you can sleep!"
So they didn't book a room in a hotel, but just found a restaurant and had a nice meal.
After dinner, Gao Mingcheng slept in the car with the child.
The space design of the truck head is not too small, but it is still not very convenient if you want to sleep. You can't lie down at all. Not to mention Gao Mingcheng, even the little kid Fan Licheng can't lie down and can only sleep leaning on the seat.
But now it is different from summer. The winter nights are very cold. Gao Mingcheng had no intention of staying in the car, so naturally he did not prepare any bedding.
Because Fan Licheng was going to Guangzhou to reunite with his father, he did bring some spare clothes, but he had no bedding and could only cover himself with a long cotton coat.
Gao Mingcheng was even worse off. He didn't even have a cotton coat, but he was in good physical condition and wouldn't feel too cold even without covering himself with clothes. But if he just slept like this for one night, even if he didn't get sick, he would feel uncomfortable. He still had to drive the next day, which would have been even more uncomfortable.
But he didn't say anything. He just leaned back in his seat, crossed his arms over his chest, closed his eyes and took a rest.
He didn't move at all, as if he would fall asleep in a second, but Fan Licheng kept twisting his body as if he was restless. He tried several positions but still couldn't sleep well.
Not only did I not sleep well, but I was also very cold.
Fan Licheng secretly opened his eyes and looked at Gao Mingcheng beside him.
They parked the car in an open space in the town. There was a hotel next to it. There were lights on at the door of the hotel. Through the faint light, Fan Licheng could clearly see Gao Mingcheng's face.
Uh, Uncle Gao seems to have fallen asleep?
Fan Licheng was worried, but he couldn't sleep!
It’s so cold and uncomfortable!
At this moment, Fan Licheng regretted it.
He thought of what his mother had told him before, that people are more important than things, so he made up his mind to not care about the goods in the car. Even if they were accidentally lost, his mother would be angry, because she wouldn't be able to bear to hit him anyway!
Having made up his mind, Fan Licheng woke Gao Mingcheng up: "Uncle Gao, wake up."
Gao Mingcheng didn't respond immediately. After a few seconds, he pretended to have just woken up and said vaguely, "What's wrong?"
"Uncle Gao, you will get sick if you sleep without a blanket! I can't let you get sick, so you should go to the hotel and sleep." Fan Licheng said clearly, with an expression that said, "I'm doing this for your own good."
But because he was still a little kid, what he said was not annoying. After hearing it, Gao Mingcheng couldn't help laughing in his heart.
This precocious child is so funny. He obviously can’t sleep because of the cold, but he still insists that it’s for his own good!
Gao Mingcheng was not polite and deliberately said, "Then what about the goods in the car... I'm going to the hotel to sleep, so will you stay in the car to sleep? Oh, you have a cotton coat, so you shouldn't be cold!"
Fan Licheng's breathing suddenly became heavy. He shouted, "I'm just a child. How could you put me in the car? Even if someone comes to steal things, I can't beat them!"
Having said this, Fan Licheng said bluntly: "I want to sleep in a hotel too!"
This time, Gao Mingcheng finally couldn't help it and burst into laughter.
He touched Fan Licheng's head and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go to the hotel!"
Hearing Gao Mingcheng's laughter, Fan Licheng realized belatedly that he had been fooled. He snorted in anger for a moment, but when Gao Mingcheng opened the car door and wanted to carry him out, he still obediently let him carry him down.
"Boss, I want a room!" Gao Mingcheng said happily as soon as he entered the hotel.
The boss was also interested and said immediately: "The people here are very nice, and no one would steal things! It must be very uncomfortable to sleep in the car in the winter!"
"Yeah." Gao Mingcheng responded casually, paid the money, took the key, and took the kid to the room to sleep!
Lying on the comfortable big bed, Fan Licheng was satisfied. This time he could finally sleep peacefully.
Early the next morning, when Fan Licheng woke up, he saw Gao Mingcheng stretching in the room, looking very energetic.
"Are you awake? Hurry up and get dressed, wash up and then we'll go have breakfast!" said Gao Mingcheng.
"Oh." Fan Licheng responded and obediently dressed and washed himself.
After that, everything was calm. Gao Mingcheng had been worried that someone might come to hijack the car after seeing someone in distress on the roadside, but after driving for a day, everything went smoothly.
By evening, the truck had arrived in GD Province, but it was still three hours away from the delivery location in Yangcheng. Even if they stayed up all night to travel, they would still have to find a place to sleep after arriving in Yangcheng before they could deliver the goods.
So Gao Mingcheng decided to rest for another night in a roadside hotel.
This time, Fan Licheng didn't say a word. He felt that sleeping in bed in the middle of winter was so comfortable!
The next morning, Gao Mingcheng continued driving on the road. Everything went smoothly as usual. In another hour, he would reach the unloading location.
Gao Mingcheng said to Fan Licheng, "We're almost there, I can finally unload the goods!"
This unloading is a double entendre.
Fan Licheng looked at the strange city and sighed precociously. He supported his chin with his hand and kept looking at the scenery outside the window.
Suddenly, there was a sudden brake, causing Fan Licheng, who was caught off guard, to hit his head.
"Uncle Gao..." Fan Licheng shouted accusingly.
But soon, his eyes caught sight of the situation ahead. On the road ahead, there was a row of iron barricades, which looked very powerful. If Gao Mingcheng had not braked in time, the truck's tires would have exploded.
Gao Mingcheng's face was heavy, but there was anger hidden in his eyes.
He turned to Fan Licheng and said, "Don't get off the car!"
He opened the door and jumped out from his side.
The other party used this method to force the car to stop, isn't he just looking for trouble?
Gao Mingcheng had been driving very steadily and would never have kept driving even if he had not seen the roadblock ahead. The barricades were suddenly pushed to the middle of the road by someone, and those people were still standing on both sides of the barricades.
This kind of precise forced stop is aimed at carjacking.
Gao Mingcheng never expected that everything would go smoothly along the way, but when he was about to reach his destination, he encountered such a thing!
Although he doesn't cause trouble, he is definitely not afraid of trouble!
Gao Mingcheng jumped out of the car, looked at the robbers who had their faces covered, and asked in a deep voice: "What do you want? I'm just a driver."
The robbers were wearing all kinds of clothes, but they all covered their faces with black cloth, and it was obvious that they were not good people.
Perhaps because Gao Mingcheng got off the car empty-handed, the robbers were relatively humane and did not beat him right away. Instead, they said, "Leave the car here, and come back in an hour!"
Gao Mingcheng revealed his identity, and the other party seemed to know that Gao Mingcheng was not the owner of the car. In addition, his face was covered, so he was willing to let Gao Mingcheng live.
However, Gao Mingcheng did not want to accept it.
Leave now and come back in an hour?
When people are driving a sports car, as long as they are driving the car, how can they let the car out of their sight?
What if they drive away or break down the truck? Trucks are expensive these days!
"No, if the car is lost or broken down, I will never be able to pay for it. This car is full of porcelain, if you want it, just go and take it yourself!"
Although Gao Mingcheng refused to leave, he took the initiative to open the door of the cargo box and made a gesture for you to please come in.
His approach surprised the robbers.
But they came for the things in the truck, not to kill people, so the leader waved and called everyone scattered around the truck over.
"Let's look for it together!" They received news that a batch of goods was hidden in this truck, and their goal was to find those things in the cargo box.
The cargo box was filled to the brim with goods, which had to be unloaded one by one.
"With so many things, when will we be able to move them?" One of the robbers complained, and the people around him immediately said, "What are you talking about? Hurry up and move them! You two move them down, and you two search through them! Leave as soon as you find the things!"
There were not many robbers, only five of them, and the leader was the tallest and strongest. All five of them were carrying portable steel pipes and knives, and they had either steel pipes or knives in their hands before.
But now he needed to free his hands to look for something, so he casually stuck the steel pipe and knife into the belt at the back of his waist.
This is a special belt that makes it easy to carry weapons.
Gao Mingcheng seemed to be standing there honestly, not moving a step, but in fact he was planning to trick the dog into killing it.
When the group's attention was focused on the cargo, Gao Mingcheng moved.
Although he was unarmed, his fist was his most powerful weapon. He punched without any tricks, just straight punches. He hit one robber on the back of the head, and the man fell down.
One punch, two punches, three punches, four punches!
It only took a few tens of seconds to knock down four people in a row. This was because these people were all gathered together, which made it easier for Gao Mingcheng to take action.
But after four punches, the leader of the robbers reacted in time. He subconsciously wanted to escape, and reached behind him, grabbing the handle of a knife.
That was not an ordinary fruit knife, but a dagger.
But before the dagger was unsheathed, the man was punched on the side of the temple. Stars appeared before his eyes and his body collapsed.
"thump!"
All five people have fallen down. With Gao Mingcheng's strength, they are likely to suffer concussions.
"Uncle Gao, are you okay?" Suddenly, Fan Licheng jumped out of the car and ran from the front to the back.
His face was full of panic, but when he saw that Gao Mingcheng was safe and sound, and the five men had fallen to the ground, the expression of surprise on his face could not disappear.
"Uncle Gao...did you defeat all these people?" Fan Licheng swallowed and spoke with difficulty.
He had been staying obediently at the front of the car, and when he heard Gao Mingcheng tell these people to take whatever they wanted, he didn't say a word.
His mother said that life is more important than things.
Let the things be if they are gone. When dad gets angry and blames Uncle Gao, I can then say something nice to Uncle Gao.
But soon, there were knocking sounds from the rear of the car. Fan Licheng was afraid that those people not only wanted the things but also Uncle Gao's life, so he jumped out of the car in a hurry.
The car body was quite high, and his feet are still numb after he jumped down.
Gao Mingcheng glanced at Fan Licheng. Although the boy was not obedient, he didn't care because he cared about him.
He bent down, picked up the person lying on the ground, and threw him directly to the side of the road.
After throwing the five people away, he went to close the door on the cargo box. Just now, those people were about to take the goods out of the cargo box, but before they could do anything, they were knocked down by Gao Mingcheng.
But that’s not all. Next he has to move the barricades in front of him.
When Gao Mingcheng saw from the corner of his eye that the tires were badly worn due to sudden braking, he couldn't help but scream.
Although he didn't have to spend any money on car maintenance, he was still unhappy!
"Hey, get in the car!" Gao Mingcheng opened the car door, carried Fan Licheng into the car, and walked towards the five people lying on the ground.
These people wasted their time and caused wear and tear to their tires, so they must pay a fee!
He bent down and squatted, then began to search his pockets skillfully.
He searched their clothes and trouser pockets, but only found some scattered small coins. When he counted them all, there was only a little over a hundred yuan!
"Poor bastard!" Gao Mingcheng cursed, thought for a while, and took away the daggers from them. The materials of these daggers were good and could be worth some money.
He searched the men's bodies thoroughly except for the black scarves that covered their faces.
Because he was not interested in their appearance and did not want to get too involved in some things.
Now he just wanted to deliver the goods, then go to the clothing wholesale market to buy a batch of good-selling goods, and finally go to another designated place to load a truckload of dried kelp to bring back.
For people in inland areas, kelp is the seafood they can most easily access.
After Gao Mingcheng searched for the spoils, he got into the car.
As soon as he got in the car, Fan Licheng said mysteriously: "Uncle Gao, I saw it!"
Gao Mingcheng glanced at him sideways, and the precocious Fan Licheng understood, and said tactfully: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone!"
"Hehe." Gao Mingcheng remained noncommittal. This child was precocious, indeed, but as for being sensible, he had already told me all the things about his family within a short time of meeting me.
So, this is not an honest child.
But it doesn't matter. This matter was not a big deal. Even if those people found out that the money and the dagger were taken away, would they call the police? Would they chase him all over the world?
The fearless Gao Mingcheng continued driving and decided to drive faster so as to hand over the hot potato in the car as soon as possible.
He drove the one-hour journey in just 40 minutes, as fast as flying.
The place for unloading was a warehouse. There were already people waiting outside the door. They were looking forward to it, and when they saw the car coming, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
