Chapter 56 Too Late
The next day.
Su Jin got up very early to head to the bus station.
No sooner had they left than a high-end black sedan pulled up in front of the guesthouse.
"Comrade, may I ask if this person lives here?"
"Who are you? What do you want with this person?"
The receptionist at the guesthouse looked at the photos handed to her and asked questions earnestly, while also scrutinizing the three people standing in front of her.
"Just answer if I ask you whether you have it or not, why all the nonsense!" Qian Wei said impatiently.
The receptionist was frightened by his rude tone, and her face immediately changed.
Guan An, who was the first to speak, first glared at Qian Wei, then explained to the receptionist in a friendly manner, "Her name is Su Jin, we are her friends, she lives here, right?"
He deliberately mentioned Su Jin's name to confirm whether it was indeed her.
The receptionist breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, "She checked out and left."
"Checked out? When did that happen?" Even Guan An couldn't hold back this time.
The fact that the other party did not deny the name Su Jin means that the person living here is indeed her!
"Speak quickly!" Qian Wei and Wu Mang urged in unison.
"They left just half an hour ago."
Guan An was clearly getting anxious. "Did she say where she was going?"
"She asked for directions to the bus station."
Before the receptionist could finish speaking, the three of them rushed out together.
"It's all Qian Wei's fault. He insisted on eating steamed buns, and now he's missed Jin Jie."
Qian Wei, who was being blamed by Wu Mang, slapped himself twice.
Slap! Slap!
Two deafening sounds.
Who knew that eating a steamed bun could cause such a delay?
Wu Mang continued his harassment, "I told you before that the person in the newspaper was Sister Jin, but you wouldn't believe me. Otherwise, we would have found her long ago."
After hearing his words, Qian Wei slapped himself twice, and then slapped Guan An, who was driving.
"What time is it? You're still making a scene!"
Guan An's rebuke saved him from physical pain.
However, he was also extremely regretful.
I never expected Su Jin to actually be here!
They were certain that the person in the newspaper was not Su Jin, but the day before yesterday evening, they overheard Du Jing mentioning that she had seen a girl here who looked very much like Su Jin.
Although the girl denied being Su Jin, the three of them still couldn't stay calm.
I found the guesthouse as quickly as possible and rushed over immediately.
But it was too late.
"Guan An, drive faster!" Qian Wei urged incessantly, his cheeks swollen.
Even without him saying it, Guan An was itching to drive the car at breakneck speed.
The distance from the guesthouse to the bus station was not short, so Su Jin specifically took a pedicab.
The winters in Beijing are just too cold. She plans to buy a train ticket to the south, to find a place where it's spring all year round, and to take care of her health, which has been depleted over the past three or four years.
When she arrived at the bus station, she realized she had underestimated the number of passengers.
Almost everywhere was packed with people, and the ticket office was completely blocked.
She tried to squeeze in, but she was too light and couldn't get in no matter what she did, so she had to give up in the end.
Just as she was about to wait and observe the situation, three figures weaving through the crowd in the distance instantly caught her attention.
Her breath hitched, and her legs seemed rooted to the spot, unable to move.
