Having bought the ticket and boarded the bus, my experience as a scalper is over.
Surprisingly, their journey to the train station was uneventful.
But there wasn't much joy on the faces of Bu Ling and the others.
To this day, Huang Yuming's team remains unaccounted for.
When they first arrived here and were targeted, Captain Xu suggested that they split up.
One team, led by him, took Huang Yuming to collect the physical object, while the other team, led by Lao Fang, took Buling to collect the blueprints.
The two sides have different missions, so they have no idea where Captain Xu and his team are now, and can only place their hopes on themselves.
As he entered the platform, Buling took one last look at the city, then turned and walked into the station without looking back, boarding the train.
On the way back, I still had one seat ticket and four standing tickets.
Needless to say, the only seat ticket belonged to Aunt Bu.
But Aunt Bu once again played to her strengths, relying on the support of four burly men, and managed to occupy a whole row of seats.
This left the honest and simple couple, who had bought seats, angry but unable to speak out.
The main reason was that she was afraid of the four burly men behind Granny Bu. Otherwise, who would be afraid of an old woman like her?
Out of caution, on the way back, Buling and the others maintained their personas.
It was thanks to the feisty old lady character that Bu Ling chose that their return journey wasn't too difficult, since the other four were all injured.
The train moved slowly forward and crossed the border.
Bling sat by the window, bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun. The scenery outside was so beautiful, like a paradise, that it captivated her.
When her daughter grows up, she will definitely take Sangs out for a walk!
It would be a pity if we hadn't explored all the beautiful landscapes of our motherland.
Just as she was immersed in the beautiful scenery, a commotion came from the carriage in front of her, and she frowned and looked over.
Old Fang, standing beside him, also craned his neck to look. After a moment, he whispered, "It seems like they're looking for something?"
Upon hearing this, Aunt Bu immediately checked the package she was holding. When she found the gemstone was still there, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Monkey, come quick, have you checked if our cloth is missing?"
Upon hearing this, the monkey and the fat fish also hurriedly checked.
After a flurry of frantic checks, the monkey finally said, "Nothing is missing."
Grandma Bu let out a long sigh of relief.
Soon, excitement filled their carriage.
"Immediate inspection, take out all your luggage!" the train police officer shouted through a megaphone.
Some of the people in the carriage were reluctant.
"What are you checking?"
Why are you looking at our luggage?
"Are you even being reasonable?"
"...."
"Shut up!" the train police officer shouted. "Stop talking nonsense and take out all your luggage!"
Ordinary people instinctively fear people in uniform, especially if the person in uniform is also aggressive.
Even though they were reluctant, everyone still took out their luggage.
Bu Ling and Lao Fang exchanged a glance and then took out their own packages.
The monkey, the fat fish, and the other two did not resist.
The group exchanged a knowing glance and then obediently waited for the train police to come and check them.
The train police officers checked everything very thoroughly, even the hidden compartments of the suitcases.
As for the packages, the wrapping cloths were rubbed and crumpled several times, clearly indicating a purposeful inspection.
Bling wasn't worried about anything, but given the current situation, she couldn't afford not to overthink it.
She was curious as to why these people were conducting such targeted examinations.
Judging from their appearance, they've come for the blueprints.
So the question is, which side leaked the information?
And knowing that the blueprints have already been successfully traded, this is a question worth pondering.
Just as Bling was thinking, the train police inspected their area.
The cloth in the four monkeys' bundles was shaken out and inspected one by one, but nothing was found.
Next up is Aunt Bu's bundle.
At first, Aunt Bu held on tightly to her bundle, but after being intimidated by the train police, she reluctantly let go.
At first, the train police officer was a little suspicious, but when he opened the bundle and saw the gems inside, he understood.
He looked up and sure enough, the old woman was staring intently at him, her eyes seeming to say, "I'm watching, don't even think about taking what belongs to this old woman."
The train police officer had originally intended to take a few pills with him, but considering the 'important business' he didn't dare to make any rash moves.
Under the watchful eyes of the old woman and the four burly men, he had no choice but to return the package to them and then continue checking the next row of seats.
Aunt Bu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly took the package and held it in her arms.
Lao Fang and the others did the same thing.
Once your own crisis is over, you'll be in the mood to watch others' misfortunes unfold.
Grandma Bu, clutching her bundle, knelt on her seat, craning her neck to watch the commotion behind her, actually observing the two train police officers.
Sure enough, her caution paid off.
The train police officer was clearly inexperienced; when he checked a middle-aged woman, he just skimmed over her, unlike the other officers.
There's nothing Bling doesn't understand.
However, she wasn't in a hurry. Only after the carriage was inspected did she sit back down, pretending to be tired, leaning on her eldest son's shoulder, and closing her eyes to sleep.
"Pay attention to the middle-aged woman in the dark blue top in the third row from the right."
Old Fang adjusted his posture to make his mother more comfortable during the exam: "I know."
The road ahead was not peaceful either.
Every few days, they would be checked, which caused a lot of complaints from the passengers on the train.
Aunt Bu was undoubtedly the one who danced the most enthusiastically.
After three checks that day, everyone on the train now knew that the old woman had more than twenty gemstones, which made her furious.
