Although the barbed wire fence between the two countries is no longer there, there are many signs on the shore, such as saying that it is illegal to cross the border illegally, severely cracking down on smuggling, etc.
Ma Miao and Gouzi are not fools. After they saw this sign, they asked me and Zhao Hu in surprise: "What's going on? Why is this even at the national border? Are you taking us across the border? Are you on the other side? It’s Myanmar, right?”
Zhao Hu said with a smile: "Nonsense, if you want to make a lot of money, how can you make it without doing some illegal and undisciplined work? Of course you have to go abroad to make it."
"Then why didn't you tell us before? I always thought you were here to rob some tomb, but now that you look like this, you are not a tomb robber?"
Zhao Hu did not tell her the truth at this time, but continued to deceive: "It's a tomb robbery, but it's not our country's tomb, it's Myanmar's. You just follow it. Don't worry, you have also seen this country's border." The line is very easy to pass. We have done our work and made money in the past. We can just come back when the time comes and there will be no problem."
The two of them looked obviously panicked, but in the end, after our persuasion, they agreed to follow us across the river. On the one hand, they were really short of money, and on the other hand, they followed us here, and even though they didn’t know it at first I wanted to cross the border illegally, but I knew I was going to rob a tomb. Grave robbing is also an illegal and undisciplined activity, so I didn't have to add the crime of smuggling.
"The river is not deep, right? It won't be very deep in the middle and then be washed away, right?" Liu Xuanxuan said when we walked to the river.
Uncle Su's friend waved his hand and said: "It's not deep, at most it reaches the thigh."
"The water must be very cold. I feel like that's what happened. I can't touch the cold water."
"Yes, the water is very cold, especially at night. The water is even colder."
Zhao Hu also said at this time: "Then I will carry you on my back and I won't let you touch the water."
"I don't need you, I'll let the gourd carry me." With that said, Liu Xuanxuan walked to the gourd.
As for Ma Miao, she didn’t want to touch the water. She also chose to let the dog carry him. After everything was ready, we began to cross the river quietly. Although it was relatively remote and there were no patrols here, we were still cautious when crossing the river.
After arriving on the other side, there was also a forest on the other side. We immediately got into the woods. Uncle Su's friend said that if we walk along the woods for about half an hour, we will encounter a road. There are already people waiting for us on the road. Shi will first take us in the direction of Muse.
When I was about to enter the woods, my cell phone rang suddenly. This guy startled me.
I wondered who would call me in the middle of the night. My first instinct at that time was whether something happened to my mother and whether it was her calling me.
When I picked up the phone, I was dumbfounded. It was actually a call from Gao Noibian. After Gao Noibian called her back to Shanghai and asked her mother to tell me that she was safe, we had no contact at all. And her relationship with the girl with short hair was , not as strong as before, so the two of us haven't been in contact for a long time. At this time, she called me in the middle of the night, probably something happened.
I thought there was something wrong with her body or she was possessed by a demon. But after answering the phone, she told me some news that shocked me.
It was said that the short-haired girl's parents had a car accident abroad.
"There was a car accident? When did it happen? Is it serious?" After hearing this, I immediately asked nervously.
Although I haven’t contacted the short-haired girl for a long time, and I have slowly accepted in my heart that I will be a stranger to her for the rest of my life, I still feel nervous when I hear news about her.
"It seems to be quite serious. They are still being rescued in hospitals in the United States. Whether the person can be saved is a question. I just learned the news, so I thought I would tell you. However, I have already gone to the airport and plan to do it as soon as possible. To the United States."
"How could this happen?" I said with a sigh.
"Maybe this is fate. I've told you what happened, so I won't tell you more. Don't tell Ranran that I told you."
I said: "Okay, then remember to call her more often to comfort her and stay with her. What about my relationship with her now? I believe you know it. I guess she won't pay attention to me when I call her, and she will Make her more emotional.”
"Ok, I know."
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Hu asked me what was wrong. He had just heard about the car accident and who was in the car accident. Then I said it was the girl with short hair and her parents had a car accident abroad.
"Ah? Is that man okay? Is it serious?"
I said it must be quite serious, otherwise the high nose bridge would not have called me to tell me about it.
Zhao Hu said: "Then you...you..."
He didn’t explain what he said, but I knew what he meant, which meant whether I should go see the short-haired girl or her father.
What can I say, if our relationship was still good, I would definitely go and see her, but now that I don’t have any contact with her, how can I go?
It doesn't matter to me, I'm willing to go, but I'm afraid that others won't want to, and what if I get emotional when they go there?
Besides, we have already gone abroad, and there are things to be busy with next, so I definitely can’t go.
After thinking for a moment, I smiled bitterly and said: "Forget it, I will contact Nini later and learn more about Ranran's family. If she needs help or something, I will help as much as possible. Now I am just following her. If you go to the United States or something, it won’t be of any use.”
Zhao Hu said yes, and then asked me if I should call the short-haired girl to comfort me. I said it was better to forget it. She was feeling very uncomfortable. I guess she had an emotional breakdown after I made the call. She was watching silently from behind. Just her.
Liu Xuanxuan was very curious at this time and asked me who I was. I didn't bother to answer her and said that it didn't matter to you, just stop asking. Liu Xuanxuan also gave me a fierce look and muttered a lot.
Because we had just crossed the border and it was not safe here, I didn’t talk too much about this topic with Zhao Hu. I motioned for everyone to quickly enter the woods.
When I entered the woods and walked deeper, I kept thinking about the girl with short hair.
I thought that after what happened to me, she must have felt uncomfortable for a long time, and now I don’t know if she has completely come out of it. Such a thing happened right after, so why is her life so miserable?
Thinking of the past when she was a proud and domineering young lady, who loved one and the other, but now that something happened to her parents, she felt pitiful. Thinking of this, I prayed to her parents devoutly, hoping that her parents would Don't get into trouble.
Having said that, when we were walking in the woods, there were a lot of mosquitoes and so on, and the bites were a bit unbearable for us. The left side of the braided face was bitten by something unknown, and it became a big swollen bump, and it hurt a lot. Amazingly, Uncle Su's friend even took out a bottle of ointment from his pocket, saying it was homemade ointment from their side, and then wiped it on the little braid's face.
As for the two women, not to mention, the complaints never stopped. Ma Miao also said that if he had known that he would have to go through such woods, he would not have come here even if he had given her 50,000 yuan.
When we walked through the woods and reached the roadside, we met the person who responded. He was a local from Myanmar, but he also spoke Mandarin. This man was dark and thin, with high cheekbones. Let us call him Just wood.
After saying goodbye to Uncle Su’s friends, Mu Mu asked us to get in the car and then took us towards Muse, Myanmar. At that time, we were riding in a military truck, and all of us were sitting in the pockets of the truck at the back. We were standing there, and there was a pickup truck behind us. There were two men with guns sitting behind the pickup truck, saying they were responsible for protecting us.
To be honest, it may be because we are abroad, or it may be because there are no formal procedures for smuggling us. When we were sitting in the car, I felt panicked, as if we had put our lives in the hands of these people. Like inside.
