Chapter 9 [Sleepy]

The truck drove towards the small town swaying. After the awkward atmosphere at first faded, the driver gradually became active, no longer as dull as at the beginning, and began to take the initiative to find topics.

During the chatting of each other, Fan Lei gradually learned that this master was also a local from the town and his job was to go shopping in the town and neighboring counties.

According to him, everyone in the town knew that there was such a fully closed school nearby, but he didn't know much about the specific situation. It was the first time he encountered a student who ran away from the school.

After calming down a little, Fang Chang realized that his arm was scratched too hard when it broke through the window. At this time, it was already extremely sore and weak and could not exert its strength.

Thinking that he still had the strength to run almost two kilometers with Li Ran on his back, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. The adrenaline that broke out at the time of crisis was indeed quite amazing.

It was still a distance before reaching the town. Fang Chang took off his clothes and simply hugged the wound on his body, so he simply put it on his seat and fell asleep in a while.

When he woke up, Fang Chang found that the truck had stopped, and the other three classmates had barely opened their sleepy eyes. Obviously, like him, after experiencing so many days of torture at Kanglong Academy and the stimulating escape just now, his spirits were tense to the limit and he was able to relax and exhausted both physically and mentally.

After getting off the car and seeing many unfamiliar buildings around, the four of them felt like they were different.

Fan Lei asked the master:

"Master, is this Shitou Town?"

"Yes, walking to the other end is the guesthouse in the town. I contacted the mayor. He prepared a room at the guesthouse and waited for you. He said he would take a break, eat something to fill his stomach, and then call your parents to pick you up."

After hearing this, everyone thanked the warm-hearted master again. The master grabbed his hair embarrassedly and took them into the guesthouse. As soon as he entered the door, an old man who looked kind-hearted and white with his hair and bearded and hunched over came forward with a smile:

"It's just you four kids? Are there anyone else?"

"No more, we are only four." Fan Lei said: "We still have a partner who couldn't climb out of the wall."

"Okay, okay." The old mayor hurriedly welcomed the four people into the inner room:

"Go in and sit in first, go in and sit in."

"Village Chief...you are so kind."

"It's OK, it's OK. I've heard about you from Aliu. I really didn't expect that Kanglong Academy was such a school. It's really hard for you. It's hard for you..."

Li Ran, who was a little younger among the four, was already in tears when he heard these words:

"Grandpa, you are such a good person."

"Oh... I can't afford it, I can't afford it. You are sitting here now, I'll ask the master of the guesthouse to make some food for you to warm up your body. Why is this winter so much that I'm wearing a piece of clothing? It's really..."

Fan Lei sat up from the bed and said excitedly:

"Grandpa, can you ask a few of us to call our family first? We have to explain this matter as soon as possible, and wait until our family comes to pick us up before we can pay back the money for the house and meals... It is best to call the police..."

"This..." The old man looked puzzled:

"This matter is not easy to deal with. I'm going to say that our town has been repairing the circuit in the past two days, and the signal tower has been broken, and we are asking people to work overtime to repair it. I guess it won't be better tomorrow. There is no signal in our village at all, and the phone can't be called."

When the four young men heard this, their faces became a little more anxious, and the old man hurriedly comforted him:

"It's okay, young man. Don't worry, no matter how arrogant the outsiders are in this guesthouse, you won't dare to come to the door. Just have a meal here and sleep for a day or two. When the signal tower is repaired tomorrow, you can call your family at any time."

After a brief discussion, the few people said this was the only way to do so, so they had to compromise and said a few more thanks to the mayor.

The old man waved his hand and said he was going out to find a husband, so that the four young men could rest in the room for a while.

After the door was closed, Fan Lei fell to the bed with a shout, and sighed:

"This is the bed. What do we usually sleep in the dormitory?"

Although the room was a double room with two beds, Li Ran still ran over and squeezed into a shop with Fan Lei. The two had a close relationship and felt relieved, talking and laughing.

Fang Chang suddenly said:

"Don't you think something is wrong?"

"What's wrong?" Fan Lei said: "Fang Chang, you have been bitten by a snake for ten years now and are afraid of the ropes, so there is no need to be so neurotic."

"Yes, when the phone will be opened tomorrow, everything will be solved."

"It's hard to say whether it can be solved. When I think of the face of my parents lied to me, Jinkanglong, I still hate it so much. Even if they pick me up, it's hard to give them a good look."

"So too. My mother said she wanted to take me to Jiangxi for a trip, but she turned me in halfway. Before entering the boredom room, I always thought I was visiting the Chinese Academy of Sciences... I didn't know if she would call her, would she pick me up."

"As long as we explain the truth clearly, there is no reason for them not to understand. At least the injuries on our bodies are real, especially the dragon whip that Fang Chang had been exposed to, that's a proof..."

"Hehehe, I still remember that after he was taken to the dragon whip, we resisted him and released the water for several days."

"It's just about to support him, haha..."

Several people were talking and laughing, and they were very happy. Fang Chang didn't say a word throughout the whole process. He always felt that he had ignored some more critical clues. After thinking about it, he suddenly asked:

"You guys are all asleep in the car, aren't you?"

The three of them looked at each other and nodded. Fang Chang frowned and said:

"That master, the old man called him A Liu, it seemed like he was an old acquaintance... But since the old man said there was no signal in the town, how did A Liu contact the old man in the car?"

The three of them were stunned, and Li Ran said in a stuttering manner:

"Maybe it's just broken the signal, but not the wifi?"

Fan Lei slapped him on the back of the head:

"The car is driving outside, where is the wifi on the road? What are you eating?"

Another companion also began to realize something was wrong:

"I'll go out and take a look and go to the toilet."

As he said that, he walked out of the door, reached out to grab the door handle, and twisted it several times, but the door did not move at all.

Seeing this scene, a buzzing sound came from Fang Chang's mind.

"It's over!"

He jumped up, rushed to the window of the room, twisted the lock of the window hard, and found that the window was directly welded to the wall.
