Let’s get back to the topic, let’s not talk about Peng Hu’s occasional bursts of wisdom. After careful consideration, after confirming that what Peng Hu said was reasonable, Zhao Ping turned to look at He Fei and asked: “What do you think? ?”
"Well, this, I basically have the same opinion as you. I think what Brother Peng said has some truth, but in the final analysis, it is just a guess. This can be noted down for the time being. As for whether the specific truth is like this, maybe we can only Find the answer in the mission."
As mentioned above, in the face of Zhao Ping's probing inquiry, He Fei frowned slightly and told the truth, with a skeptical attitude, neither agreeing nor denying, which seemed to be in line with his unique personal caution.
After saying that, he lowered his head and glanced at the time on his watch. Then, He Fei stood up and looked back at everyone and said, "The time is almost up. The train is about to stop. Everyone, get ready to get off."
……………
Boom, boom.
The train finally stopped and stalled in a dark environment where you couldn't see your fingers. As the train stopped, no matter whether the executors were willing or not, they had to get off the train as soon as possible after it stopped, otherwise the only curse waiting for everyone would be ruthless obliteration!
Next, under the leadership of He Fei, everyone walked to the door with different moods, stepped off the train and entered the darkness...
The darkness did not last long, just a minute. As the darkness passed and the vision returned, the first thing that came into view were rows of seats.
As soon as the seats came into view, there was a lot of noise and noise. In addition to the clearer sounds of nearby vehicles, there were also various English conversations.
Listening to the sound, He Fei looked intently and saw that he was sitting in a bus. As for what a bus is, there is no need to explain too much. A bus is a type of passenger vehicle and also has the largest passenger capacity. First class, and there is no bus with small space. The interior space of the bus he is currently riding is surprisingly large. Leaving aside the central aisle, there are double passenger chairs on the left and right. There are ten rows in total, which can seat up to 40 people. , I am currently sitting in the left passenger seat of the seventh row, which is farther back.
That said, there are indeed many passengers in the car. The difference is that most of the passengers are European and American whites. There is no doubt that this is the United States. The location is very consistent with the mission description, and this is exactly a bus terminal. Through Looking out the car window, I saw many buses with the same appearance parked nearby. Many people were rushing to and from the surroundings. Not far away, there was a large iron sign erected with the following words in English:
Colorado Coach Terminal.
A simple map is printed below, which identifies major road sections and stations. The vertical route in the lower right direction also clearly identifies a line of text, Interstate 17.
Obviously, in order to provide transportation convenience, it is impossible for Colorado, which is relatively close to Utah, not to have long-distance stations. Currently, I am in Colorado. As expected, the bus will depart for Colorado soon. Utah, in addition, due to the long interstate driving distance, finding a time-saving route is the most critical, and the fastest route to Utah is undoubtedly Interstate 17!
Interstate 17, a long-distance highway linking Colorado and Utah, a lonely road that exists mostly in the wilderness plains, and it is worth mentioning that based on the actual speed of passenger vehicles such as buses, if the midway is not considered, If there are emergencies such as parking, it would take about 20 hours to complete the thousands of kilometers of interstate highways. It seems that the 24-hour task time limit set by the curse is quite loose and reasonable.
To be honest, if possible, He Fei would like to get off the car immediately and take other means of transportation to his destination. Even if he does not change means of transportation, he will bribe the driver with money to take a detour. Unfortunately, he cannot do this because The curse has long since fixed the rules. It stipulates that in addition to taking a bus to Utah, the executor must also pass through Interstate 17. The rules are already fixed, and there are basically no loopholes to exploit. In desperation, He Fei could only shake his head and sigh, Then I sat in the car and sighed secretly, knowing that Interstate 17 was not safe. My whole body was rough and uneasy.
It is also worth mentioning that the weather today is quite good. Although it is not a clear sky, it is not close to cloudy. With the light of the car window, I looked down at my watch and saw that the time showed 12 o'clock noon.
(The current time is 12 o'clock, and the mission requires arriving in Utah within 24 hours, which means that you only need to spend one night on the bus, and the mission will be over by this time tomorrow.)
Thinking of this, He Fei turned his eyes to his side and saw an acquaintance sitting next to him...
The young man's face was full of nervousness, and his head kept turning and looking here and there. In addition to the obvious nervousness in his face, he also swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva from time to time.
"Hey, Li Tianheng, what are you looking at?"
Seeing Li Tianheng sitting next to him, He Fei was slightly startled, raised his hand to touch him, and asked curiously.
Seeing He Fei asking, Li Tianheng turned around and replied nervously: "Of course I'm looking for my teammates. Look where everyone is sitting."
"Uh." After hearing the answer, He Fei couldn't help but be surprised. In fact, he was right. Although he was 100% sure that other people were also on the bus, and some experienced senior people were bound to be as calm and calm as him, please don't forget The bus is relatively spacious and there are many passenger seats, so it is not a problem to seat about 40 people. Even if you know that your teammates are on the bus, you still have to give priority to finding out where everyone is, right?
Being reminded by Li Tianheng, He Fei straightened up and looked around, and saw Peng Hu and Kong Ling in the front row, except for Li Tianheng who happened to be sitting next to him. The girl was still unconscious, and the bald man put Kong Ling in the front row. On the inside of the window, I sat on the outside for easy care. In front of me were Chen Xiaoyao and Chen Shuihong in the fifth row. After looking at the front row, He Fei turned his head and continued to observe. He only saw the flat passenger chairs on the opposite side of the aisle. Cheng Ying and Lu Chengbing were seated, while Zhao Ping and another white woman who had never seen a white woman were seated in the eighth row behind them. Opposite were Tang Meng and Jiang Liqing, while Yang Zhibin sat alone in the ninth row near the end.
As the saying goes, everything is always relative. While He Fei and the two looked around, why didn't the others look at it intently? During the period of looking at each other, everyone nodded subconsciously every time they made eye contact, and then confirmed the position of their teammates. Not to mention, the distribution of members this time was relatively easy. Except for Zhao Ping and Yang Zhibin, most of the others sat side by side in pairs. Moreover, the distribution area is also relatively concentrated, and there is no scattered mixed seating. This saves the trouble of people gathering deliberately, and the status quo can basically be maintained.
Of course, nothing is absolute. Although the overall distribution of the executors is concentrated and there are teammates around them, it is not absolutely concentrated after all, at least not for Yang Zhibin, who is sitting alone in the back row at this moment. He himself did change his face instantly after discovering his location. Big change!
(Am I the only one in the back row at the end? There are no teammates around me, and there is no one behind me, no, no...)
It was obvious that the middle-aged man was panicking because he was performing a supernatural mission for the first time. It’s no wonder that he was panicked. After all, he was just a boiler worker at a water plant. In addition, he was a relatively honest man. He didn’t even go abroad as many times as he usually did. It's so pitiful to be young, and now he is thrown into a foreign country where he is obviously unfamiliar. Combined with the threat of worms, the middle-aged man is lying if he says he is not afraid. It might be better if there are senior people around him, but unexpectedly, it backfires. As soon as he recovered, he saw no one around him. All his teammates were in the front row. He was sitting alone in the penultimate row very close to the end of the bus. Although the senior man named Zhao Ping was also alone, he was still sitting next to him. She is a white woman, not to mention that she is surrounded by teammates, unlike herself, except for the front row, there is almost no one behind her.
Let’s get back to the topic, let’s not talk about how Yang Zhibin felt uneasy sitting alone in the back row. At the same time, while the executives were observing the carriage and sizing each other up, many passengers entered the bus one after another. In just a short moment, this car could take The bus, which numbered 40, was almost full. Even the end of the bus, which was usually inaccessible, was occupied by a rather large, fat white man. Although he was just a character in the plot and was sitting far away from him, this was still a problem for Yang Zhibin, who had been flustered for a long time. It's a psychological comfort.
Similar to domestic buses, as there are more and more passengers in the bus, when the last passenger arrives in the carriage and chooses a seat, not long after, a white driver wearing work clothes and a peaked cap walks into the bus and sits down. From the front driving seat, I thought that the driver in the peaked cap would start driving immediately, but the driver did not do so. Instead, he first took out a cigarette and lit it. After taking a deep breath, the driver slowly turned back and then said to the passengers in the back: " Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this long-distance bus. The destination is Utah. Due to the long journey, I will stop occasionally on the way to facilitate everyone to get off the bus to solve personal problems. It is best not to ask me to stop if nothing happens."
"Oh, by the way, passengers are strictly prohibited from smoking in the car during the journey."
Nani?
Sure enough, if what the driver said in the first half was reasonable and was nothing more than informing passengers of precautions, then after hearing the driver’s subsequent supplements, let’s not talk about the reactions of other passengers. Anyway, the executor was instantly He was shocked on the outside and tender on the inside. He was extremely speechless at this reminder that only the state officials set fire to the people and the people were not allowed to light the lamps. Especially Peng Hu, who was so shocked that his eyes widened and he murmured to himself: "Fuck, this duck-tongued hat is so shameless." How thick is it? Before you tell me, why don't you put out the cigarette in your mouth first?"
Maybe it's the American customs or the station management has always been lax. After the cap said it, the other passengers fell silent, as if they had acquiesced to the rule that the driver could smoke at will. Of course, smoking didn't matter. The key was that the cap finally made a mark on it. After talking nonsense, he turned around and finally, as the driver stepped on the accelerator, the bus started to move, slowly leaving the station with a busload of passengers and a group of executors.
However, at the moment the bus pulled out of the station, He Fei vaguely heard a sound, whether it was an illusion or not. In addition to the clearly echoing roar of the accelerator, there was also a string of laughter, a string of weird sounds that were hard to hear unless you listened carefully. laughter:
"Hehehehe..."
