When Xu Zhiyi woke up and looked out the window, it was dark.
"Ahem!" Xu Zhiyi was a little confused after waking up and didn't know where he was.
It was just a moment and she quickly came to her senses.
Her alertness decreased and she even fell asleep on the train.
"Ayan..."
"Zhiyi, wake up and eat something. Drink some water first." Pei Yan unscrewed the kettle and handed it to her mouth.
Xu Zhiyi took the kettle and took a sip of warm water.
"Is it dark already? I have slept for so long?" Xu Zhiyi said.
She, who was always cautious, didn't expect that she could sleep so soundly amid the noisy sounds on the train.
She then realized that she woke up leaning on Pei Yan.
"Why didn't you wake me up? Are your shoulders sore?"
"I didn't call you because you were sleeping so soundly. Your shoulder is fine."
Pei Yan handed the pancake to Xu Zhiyi and secretly moved his shoulders.
Xu Zhiyi, who was eating the cake, didn't notice anything unusual, but Wang Ziming, who was secretly observing them from the opposite side, noticed it.
It was dark, the lights in the carriage were dim and yellow, and the words on the book were blurry and unclear.
Pei Yan placed a small piece of cloth from the book on the page he was reading, closed the book and put it in his bag.
You can tell how careful he is, not even wanting to fold a corner of the book.
"Where's Mr. Xu?"
Only then did Xu Zhiyi realize that Xu Sheng was not sitting at his seat and no one knew where he had gone.
"He went to the bathroom."
Xu Zhiyi just asked casually, asking if such a big boy was afraid of anything happening on the train.
Who knew it would actually happen?
Mr. Xu had been sitting for the entire afternoon and couldn't sit still any longer. I thought of going to the bathroom and taking a walk at the same time.
The toilet is at the rear of the other carriage.
As he walked along, he saw some people sleeping in their beds, some talking in low voices, women holding their children and coaxing them, and some people like him strolling around, glancing around from time to time.
Xu Sheng felt that the man was a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
He didn't have time to think about it.
If Xu Zhiyi saw this here, he would definitely know that this person was acting sneakily and was actually scouting the place.
They wait until late at night when everyone is most tired, and it is an easy time for them to take action.
Moreover, these thieves on the train do not commit crimes alone, but usually work in gangs.
They covered each other, and even if someone noticed something was wrong and wanted to chase after them, someone else would soon appear to block their way.
Once the thief ran away, there would be plenty of places to hide people on such a large train.
If you can’t find it, there’s nothing you can do but consider yourself unlucky.
Mr. Xu didn’t know. After he found the toilet and took care of the most important thing in his life, he was about to go back.
There was a short and thin man behind him, who followed Xu Sheng quietly. After seeing clearly where he was, he took note of it.
He had no idea that he was being targeted just because he went to the toilet.
The night was so boring. After it got completely dark, everyone went to their own beds and lay down to sleep.
Xu Zhiyi took a nap in the afternoon and was not feeling sleepy at the moment.
However, seeing that everyone else was lying in bed, she didn't want to talk to Pei Yan anymore, so as not to disturb others.
The noise in the carriage became less and less, and occasionally there was a cough from Wang Ziming who was lying down below. He was afraid of disturbing others, so he suppressed the volume of his coughs.
Soon, the talking in the carriage died down, and everyone fell asleep while swaying.
Pei Yan closed his eyes and breathed steadily.
There was a dark shadow, moving lightly, walking towards them.
