Chapter 9 Three-Way Fork

He Jiaqing reminded Li Banfeng that he must abide by the rules on the train.

Li Banfeng quickly closed the curtains and locked the door of the carriage.

He took out two boxes of instant noodles, filled the teapot in the carriage with hot water, and ate them.

This seemed to be some kind of mark left in the soul. On the train, instant noodles would become very delicious.

After eating, Li Banfeng sat on the chair and replied to He Jiaqing: "Now tell me, what is going on?"

He Jiaqing replied: "I am trapped in Yaowanggou. When you get to my house, we will talk about it in person."

"First tell me where Yaowanggou is. Is it still in Yuedong Province?"

"Not in Yuedong Province, in Pro Province. Without that thing, I can't get away."

"Where is Pro Province?"

"Brother, I'm overdrawn and can't hold on any longer. Let's talk about it when we meet."

"What's in the package?"

"Let me rest for a while, I will definitely tell you, you must remember, don't open the package."

He Jiaqing stopped sending messages.

Li Banfeng took the package out of his backpack, put it on the dining table, and looked at it quietly for a long time.

If I say I'm not curious, that's a lie.

If I say I won't open it, that's impossible.

The key is when to open it.

Li Banfeng concluded that there are rare treasures in it.

But thinking of the phone call of the big-eyed man, the man named Captain Xiao mentioned that this thing would kill many people.

Could it be some kind of poison, or a biological weapon such as bacteria or viruses?

He Jiaqing didn't send any more messages. He was indeed overdrawn.

Li Banfeng was also exhausted. He couldn't sleep in the dormitory at first, but now in the carriage, the fatigue came very quickly and made people unable to resist.

He took out his mobile phone and began to search for information about Prozhou, Yaowanggou, and Lushuiwan.

The information on the mobile phone was varied and difficult to distinguish. Li Banfeng searched for a long time and didn't find anything valuable.

The light in the carriage was very dim, and the lampshade seemed to be a light bulb that was rare when I was a child, with a yellow halo that made my eyelids heavy.

The curtains were closed tightly, so tightly that only the shadow of the scenery outside could be seen.

The panting of the steam train, the collision of wheels and rails, and the occasional whistle constituted a hypnotic white noise, which made Li Banfeng unconsciously walk into the bedroom and fall asleep on the bunk.

He didn't remember how long he slept. He drank water and went to the toilet in the middle. It was not until a violent knock on the door came that Li Banfeng woke up completely from his sleep.

"Brother, brother! Please open the door and let me in for a while, just a while." A woman's voice came from outside the carriage door, very hurried, very flustered, and with a crying tone.

There was also a child begging: "Uncle, please, open the door, please."

The child cried.

Li Banfeng didn't open the door.

The broadcast on the train said that if it is not necessary, do not let strangers enter the carriage.

And there is another key question.

How do they know that I am a big brother? How does the child know that I am an uncle?

Since getting on the train, Li Banfeng has not left the carriage. Except for the ticket checker, Li Banfeng has not seen anyone.

"Brother, I beg you, let me stay in for a while, I will leave soon!"

"Uncle, open the door..."

Knock knock knock!

The knocking on the door became more and more urgent, and the crying became more miserable.

Li Banfeng did not respond, and at this moment, the steam train was slowing down.

The broadcast sounded: "Dear passengers, Santoucha Station is about to arrive. Passengers arriving at the station, please pack your personal belongings and prepare to get off in advance."

"I beg you, brother, let my child go in and hide for a while, I won't go in!" The woman outside the door shouted hoarsely.

What happened? Why did you have to hide in my carriage?

Li Banfeng came to the door and planned to take a look outside through the crack of the door. Suddenly, he vaguely heard a man's voice: "Kick the door open, he can't open the door!"

Li Banfeng quickly retreated from the door and looked around for weapons that could be used.

There are three people outside the door?

There is actually a man!

Underestimate the risk on this train.

"Kick the door, it will be too late if you don't kick it now!" The man's voice came again.

Does he really dare to kick the door?

I guess he doesn't dare, otherwise he would have kicked it long ago.

Inside and outside the door, the two sides are in a stalemate.

Swish~~

With a long exhaust, the train stopped.

Crash!

Li Banfeng heard the sound of the carriage door opening, and the attendant put down the ladder.

"Open the door! Open the door! I told you to open the door! Are you going to open it or not..." The woman yelled crazily.

The door panel shook violently, and she started kicking the door.

Strange, why is this woman kicking the door?

Although I can't see it, I can tell from the rhythm of the sound that the person yelling and kicking the door is the same person, that woman!

The door panel shook violently and could be kicked open by her at any time.

Li Banfeng prepared spicy strips and the thermos in the carriage, which are the only two weapons at hand.

My neck is a little itchy.

Li Banfeng couldn't spare his hands to scratch!

No, it was too itchy.

Why did it happen at this time?

Li Banfeng put down the thermos, scratched his neck hard twice, and immediately picked up the thermos again.

Bang! Bang!

The door was about to be kicked open, and another voice came from outside the car: "You have arrived at your stop, please get off immediately."

It was the voice of the conductor!

The attendant was warning the woman that the station had arrived.

Li Banfeng felt relieved a little. He put down the thermos and scratched his neck a few more times.

The woman screamed, "I won't get off! I'll find a way to buy a ticket. I can't get off at Santoucha. The peddler has left. I have to get off at the next stop. I have to go to Haichiling!"

What peddler?

The peddler has left, so why should I go to Haichiling?

Li Banfeng was still confused. He only heard a scuffle and shove outside the carriage.

The woman shouted, "I won't get off!"

The child shouted, "I won't get off!"

The man shouted, "We'll buy a ticket in a while!"

The voices of the woman, the child, and the man rang together. The scuffle and collision never stopped, but the sound was getting farther and farther away. It seemed that they and the attendant had fought all the way to the bottom of the car.

Not long after, the attendant took back the ladder and closed the door.

Li Banfeng sat back in his chair, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, scratched his neck, and speculated on what happened.

The three of them wanted to enter my carriage, and it turned out that they wanted to evade the fare.

If they were allowed in, I guess this carriage would definitely be occupied by the three of them, and this is still the lightest punishment.

They dared to kick the door, dared to wrestle with the attendant, and they didn’t have money to buy tickets, so I guess they would definitely rob me after they came in.

If I can’t beat them, I probably won’t be able to keep my money, instant noodles, spicy strips, potato chips, and He Jiaqing’s treasure.

Everything else is fine, but the key is that I can’t let them rob the instant noodles. Without instant noodles, how can I survive this journey!

Sitting by the window, Li Banfeng drank a few sips of water to calm down.

Huff~Huff~

After stopping at the station for more than ten minutes, the steam train started again.

My neck is getting more and more itchy, as if I have a rash!

Li Banfeng took out his mobile phone and was about to check the time when he suddenly heard a clapping sound from the window.

Who is clapping the window?

Is it the three people just now?

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Muffled sounds continued.

The train was going faster and faster, but the slapping sound continued.

Is this person chasing the train and slapping my window?

How fast is he running!

Li Banfeng was shocked and didn't dare to continue sitting by the window.

He wanted to open the curtain to take a look, but he remembered the instructions on the radio and didn't reach out rashly.

The train passed a street lamp, and under the light, the curtain reflected the figure of the person outside the window.

Li Banfeng saw the broad palm, the strong arms, the broad mind, and the shoulders that were broader than the mind.

On those broad shoulders, there were three heads. Although they only flashed by, Li Banfeng firmly believed that he was not mistaken.

Is this the person who kicked the door outside the carriage just now?

It should be!

Li Banfeng thought there were three people outside the door, but in fact there was only one person, a person with three heads!

The conversation he just heard was the three heads of this person talking in turn.

This place is called Santoucha.

Is there a necessary connection between this three-headed person and Santoucha?

The train passed a row of street lights, and the figures of the three-headed man repeatedly flashed on the curtains.

He grabbed the outer edge of the window with one hand, his body was already hanging in the air, and the other hand was still patting the window.

The glass of the window seemed to be ready to crack at any time.

Li Banfeng picked up the spicy strips and thermos again, ready for battle.

A pole suddenly stretched down from the roof of the car, and stabbed the three-headed man more than a dozen times in a row, stabbing the three-headed man down from the window.

It was the attendant.

The attendant stabbed the three-headed man down from the car, then put away the pole, jumped to the connection between the carriages with a calm demeanor, and returned to the carriage.

Li Banfeng stood in the middle of the carriage, not daring to get too close to the door or the window.

Squeak ~

The broadcast sounded again: "Dear passengers, welcome to the No. 1160 train. Passengers who have boarded the train, please do not move around at will..."

His neck was getting more and more itchy. Li Banfeng scratched it a few times and found that the skin had been broken and bleeding.

What's going on?

Why is only my neck itchy?

Should I grow two more heads?

What if they really grow?

"It's okay to grow! It's so lonely to be alone!"

"We are always by your side, just to talk to you!"

Li Banfeng seemed to hear two people talking in his ear!
