Chapter 163: Chapter 163: Damn Human Trafficker.
"Wow, what a coincidence, comrade! It’s you guys! Are you also heading to the Capital?"
When Susu and the others were sitting on the lower bunk having a meal, a man peered over with his neck extended.
"Comrade, it’s me—the person who was almost robbed at the train station entrance. It was you who timely threw the durian shell that left the thief with a bloody face."
The man was gesturing excitedly.
Susu glanced at the familiar briefcase, then remembered—he was the same clueless guy who was almost robbed at the train station yet could still chat cheerfully with others.
"Comrade, lucky for me you were there. Otherwise, I could have been robbed of everything, not even a penny left. I probably wouldn’t even have money to get home, which would really be a case of ’the heavens don’t respond, the earth doesn’t care.’"
The man said while alternating between snot and tears, thinking if something happened to him, his old mother, wife, and kids would cry their eyes out.
Susu waved his hand, "No worries. We were almost robbed by that guy last time too, so I recognized him immediately."
"But how could that be okay? If it weren’t for you, comrade, who knows where I’d be crying right now."
The man immediately dug into his pocket, insisting on thanking Susu.
After a lot of pushing back and forth, and fearing it might draw the attention of others, Susu reluctantly accepted ten banknotes just to acknowledge the man’s gratitude.
Seeing this, the man finalized his briefcase.
Xiao Sun reminded, "Comrade, there are a lot of people on the train and many watching eyes. Quite a few saw you taking money out of your bag, so you need to be careful."
"Yes, you really need to be extra careful when you’re alone."
The people repeatedly advised. The thieves can be so fast; by the time you realize, they have already stolen and fled.
"Don’t worry, I don’t have much money left in my bag."
The man patted his stomach, leaned in close, and whispered, "Don’t worry, once bitten, twice shy. I’ve hidden the money in my underwear pocket. My wife specifically bought it for me before I left."
Susu, "..."
Is this comrade a reincarnation of Tangseng?
The man was also talkative. After chatting, the others learned his name was Huang Dawei, a resident from Shanghai. He was in Yangcheng to explore business opportunities but almost ended up penniless and unable to return home.
He was initially planning to travel from Yangcheng to the Capital, then return to Shanghai after finishing his work in the Capital.
What a fortuitous sequence of events that Susu’s durian rind had saved him, and now they happened to be on the same train and even in the same sleeping car.
Such a coincidence when it comes to fate.
Every time Huang Dawei mentioned how perfectly the durian rind hit the thief’s face that night, he would give consecutive thumbs up.
Susu, entertained by his relentless chatter, felt fortunately that he had just finished eating the durian when he did.
If a whole durian had hit him instead, it would be telling how much it would hurt now, considering a single durian costs more than three yuan.
It wasn’t until the train lights went out that Huang Dawei, still not done talking, returned to his sleeping berth.
"Comrades, it’s getting late. I’m going to sleep now, won’t keep you from resting. We can continue chatting tomorrow."
"Alright, goodbye Mr. Huang."
After he left, Su Nian breathed a sigh of relief, "Sis, that guy really can talk, huh? Anyone would think he hasn’t spoken for ages."
Susu, amused by her sister’s comment, patted the little girl’s messy braids.
"Off to sleep now."
With the lights out, after some initial rustling, the train car gradually quieted down, only to be filled again with the intermittent and varied sounds of snoring.
Susu and her companions gradually drifted off to sleep amidst the various snoring sounds around them.
There were no large or small packages beside them, so no one needed to take turns waking up to watch the parcels; they all slept straight through until morning.
Later, Susu didn’t know where they were, but the train stopped for quite a while. She heard a lot of voices speaking and then fell asleep again.
When she opened her eyes again, it was already past ten in the morning.
Just waking up, Susu clumsily climbed down from the bed and sat on the lower bunk.
It took a while for her to fully wake up, and then the sisters went to wash up together.
It wasn’t time to sell food yet, so they casually ate something to fill their stomachs.
While looking at the scenery outside the window and idly daydreaming, Huang Dawei came over with a big smile, clutching his briefcase.
"Mr. Su, Mr. Lu, Xiao Sun... good morning everyone."
"Morning, Mr. Huang, have you eaten?"
"I have, got up in the morning to use the bathroom and they had just started selling boxed lunches."
Huang Dawei sat down next to Xiao Sun, looking all too familiar.
Susu could tell by her sister’s twitching lips that she found him too talkative.
In her sister’s words, men should do more and talk less, no need for all that useless chatter.
Unaware, Huang Dawei was enthusiastically describing Shanghai to Su Chenghe and Xiao Sun, his speech animated.
Suddenly, there was a commotion on the train, filled with men and women talking and crying.
Everyone was startled, looking at each other, not knowing what had happened.
Huang Dawei slapped his thigh, almost swearing, "Oh no, could it be those thugs from the train station catching up to us?"
Everyone got scared by his words, "Really? Could it be?"
"What if those thugs got more and more angry and decided to follow us to the station and boarded the train?"
"That’s impossible. First, they wouldn’t know we were heading to the Capital. Secondly, even if they did catch up, they wouldn’t wait this long to make a move."
Lu Xiaoting then stood up, "I’ll go and see what’s happening. You all stay put."
"Alright, alright." Everyone nodded vehemently.
Su Nian was worried and grabbed her husband’s arm, her brows knotted, "Be careful."
"Sure, wife."
Lu Xiaoting then walked towards the end of the carriage, a lot of people craning their necks curiously to see.
A crowd had gathered, and Lu Xiaoting, using his height advantage, immediately saw a person in the crowd crying tears and snot.
It seemed to be a family, but he didn’t know what happened.
"Comrade, what happened upfront? Why the tears?"
A man in his thirties turned around and sighed deeply, "Oh, damn human trafficker."
"Apparently, this family’s child went to use the bathroom, and in the blink of an eye, he was gone. They searched inside and outside the bathroom; he must have been abducted by a human trafficker."
"Exactly, I heard the child was quite big, absolutely fine going to the bathroom alone. They never imagined that in just a blink of an eye, he would vanish."
"Damn human traffickers, doing such vile deeds. I curse that in the future his children will be born without anuses. Heartless creatures."
"These despicable, rotten-hearted villains, I’d beat them to death if I caught them. They could choose to do anything, why steal someone’s child?"
