Chapter 219 Stranger Woman
Chapter 219 Stranger Woman
Because the train speed at this time is too slow, it will take two days at the fastest to reach the destination, and this does not include various special circumstances.
So Li Manping and the others brought enough food, but they kept it all with Uncle Li.
Accompanied by the clanging sound of the train, Li Manping had a good sleep.
It wasn't that she was too big-hearted and didn't pay attention even though she knew there was a problem. It was because she felt that the bad guys would most likely not take action during the day, at least until night.
Besides, it's not necessarily clear whether the two men in her cubicle are bad people.
From the time she got in the car to now, Li Manping slept for more than four hours, and it was already time for dinner.
The two men in the compartment were no longer on the bunks and didn't know where to kill the time.
When Li Ze came back, he found that she had woken up and rubbed her hair happily.
"Little sister, you have finally slept enough. If you don't wake up, I will wake you up."
Li Ze put down the lunch box in his hand and pushed it to Li Manping with a smile on his face.
"Here, this is dinner. I just steamed it with boiling water. It's not cold anymore. Eat it quickly."
Li Manping shook her head. She had just woken up and had no appetite, so she should wait a little longer.
"Brother, you eat first, I will eat later."
Li Ze saw that she really didn't want to eat, so he didn't force her to eat. Just when he came over, his father said that when the little sister wakes up, he should ask if she is hungry. If she doesn't, wait for her to wake up on her own and don't scream.
As for food, they have a lot of it, so they don't lack for it. If not, they can buy food on the train, which is not much more expensive.
Opening the kettle, Li Manping took a few sips of water to moisten her dry mouth.
"Brother, you eat slowly. You feel uncomfortable after sleeping for too long. I'll go out and take a walk."
Li Manping put on her shoes, greeted Li Ze and left the sleeper car.
Step by step out of the sleeper car, Li Manping breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, among the countless pairs of eyes looking at her, she noticed three pairs of distinctive eyes.
It was a look full of malice, sizing up prey. With just one glance, Li Manping remembered it.
There were three people, two were the men in her cubicle, they were not together, and there was an old lady, next to the wretched man.
She didn't know what these people were going to do or what their agenda was, but she wasn't afraid.
Li Manping walked slowly from car to car and saw many people taking out their own dry food and swallowing it with the hot water on the train.
The food was all ordinary, just various kinds of whole grain flour and vegetable cakes, not as varied as later generations' food.
Finally, Li Manping saw a hard seat that was currently unoccupied, and she looked inquiringly at the young woman sitting next to her.
"Sister-in-law, the seat next to you is currently unoccupied. Can I sit down for a while and rest?"
The young woman was reading with her head down. When she heard Li Manping's question, she raised her head and glanced at her, her eyes flashing with joy.
"There's no one around. Sister, please sit down and let me out when there's someone around."
"Thank you, sister-in-law, you are so kind."
Li Manping sat down and started asking the woman non-stop. The woman also cooperated. After answering many of Li Manping's questions, she asked Li Manping in turn.
"Sister, are you alone?"
"No, my uncle and brothers and I went back to our hometown to visit relatives."
"Really, when will you get off the bus? Maybe we can go together."
"Really? We will get off the train the day after tomorrow. We will spend two nights on the train. Where will you get off, sister-in-law?"
"Sister-in-law, I am much earlier than you. I will arrive tomorrow afternoon. It's a pity that we are not in the same place. Otherwise, we can have a good talk. My sister-in-law likes you very much. I have hit it off."
The woman pretended to be a pity, and Li Manping was also filled with regret.
"In this way, sister, come over and talk to my sister-in-law when you have time. I happen to be bored too, so I can only read a book to pass the time. It will definitely not be boring if you are with me to talk."
"Okay, then I'll come over and talk to my sister-in-law when I have time."
Li Manping agreed and continued talking to the woman in a low voice.
To outsiders, they look like very good friends or family.
Li Manping kept joking with the woman, and the content was all kinds of weird. Even if she said something wrong, they would still laugh at each other. It didn't end until it was dark outside and her stomach growled.
"Sister-in-law, I'll come find you tomorrow morning and drop you off by the way."
"Okay, sister, keep your word, sister-in-law is waiting for you."
Li Manping waved goodbye to the woman. During this period, no one came to ask her for a seat, so Li Manping stayed seated.
It was Li Manping's intention to be so close to a strange woman. Just now, she felt the same malice, and the source was that woman.
So she pretended to be a simple girl who had just left home and had never seen the world. She was unguarded and answered every question asked by a strange woman. Thinking about it, she would take action from night to tomorrow.
Most likely tomorrow afternoon, when she gets off the bus.
When I returned to the cubicle, the two men were talking. The eldest brother was not there, but he must have been at the uncle's place.
Li Manping didn't go there, took her lunch box and went to the place to get water.
The two men looked at Li Manping's back and looked at each other, unable to hide their smiles.
Late at night, the wretched man turned over slightly and found that everyone was sleeping, so he gently raised his head and looked at Li Manping in a daze on the lower bunk.
Even though there is no light, after staying in the dark for a long time, I can still see something clearly through the moonlight outside the car window.
"Comrade, what are you doing?"
Li Ze spoke softly, with deep suspicion and scrutiny in his eyes.
The wretched man stiffened, and in a blink of an eye he looked at Li Ze across from him.
"No...it's nothing. I want to go down. I'm afraid I'll disturb you, so I just want to see if you're asleep."
The wretched man forcibly explained, then lifted up the quilt, climbed down the ladder, smiled at Li Ze in a flattering way, covered his belly and ran away.
Li Ze didn't follow him, he was still lying on his bunk with his eyes closed and concentrating. After a while, he heard the footsteps that had calmed down and came back.
"Comrade, I'm sorry, I didn't expect to wake you up."
"Well, I feel sleepy. Please be quiet and go to sleep."
Li Manping turned over in bed, and when the wretched man stared at her, she woke up, but with her elder brother here, she felt relieved.
