Chapter 14 This Man Is Called Xiaoshuai

Thump, thump.

A truck was swaying on the small road, at a speed of only 20 yards.

There were three people in the cab. The driver was Xiao Shuai, 36 years old, and next to him was his wife Xiao Mei. They had been married for ten years and had an eight-year-old daughter, and Ning Zhou who was hitching a ride.

It was almost exactly the same as the old man expected.

Ning Zhou didn't know that today was a market day, but when he arrived, he was overjoyed to see the bustling streets. The more people there were, the safer he was.

Even if the pursuit team was here at the moment, it would not be so easy to catch him.

The town where he was born was similar to Yuhu. On the fifth and tenth day of the lunar calendar, folks from ten miles away would come to purchase or sell some things.

Similarly, there would be many merchants who specialized in rural market business, such as the young couple. They had been engaged in the clothing business for eight years, and their scope of activities was more than a dozen towns in the city.

Yuhu was just passing by, and there were too few people. From the morning to the afternoon, they sold about 300 yuan.

Tomorrow is the highlight. There is a market in a town with more than 20,000 people, so we closed the stall early. When we were loading the car, Ning Zhou came.

After chatting for a while and knowing their destination, Ning Zhou lied that he had something to do and wanted to take a ride. He was willing to pay for the fare.

Most rural people are simple and honest. Seeing Ning Zhou take the initiative to help, they did not ask for money and enthusiastically invited him to go with them.

"Xiao Wang, my car has been driven 130,000 kilometers. There is no air conditioning. You are tired."

Although Ning Zhou did not want to lie, safety was the first priority. He made up a name at random, called Wang Jin, and bought three bottles of ice water and some fruits when he got on the car. After all, they did not want his money, so he showed some appreciation.

It was originally a by-product, which made Xiao Shuai a little embarrassed. In their opinion, it was no big deal to take a ride. Everyone has difficulties.

"It's okay. I used to be a salesman. Sometimes it was too late at night and I couldn't bear to spend money to stay in a hotel. I even slept in the park. It doesn't matter if there is no air conditioning. It's good to blow the natural wind."

Ning Zhou was telling the truth. The most difficult thing was that the car broke down on the national highway in the middle of the night. There was no village in front and no store behind. I was frozen like a dog in the winter.

If there is any disadvantage, it is that the speed is too slow.

The road was not easy to drive originally, and with a small truck with more than 100,000 kilometers, it took an hour to travel for 40 minutes.

"What are you doing now?"

Xiao Mei peeled an orange, fed her husband half of it very considerately, and handed it to Ning Zhou with the skin.

"Thank you, I'm now."

Ning Zhou didn't know how to answer for a while.

Xiao Shuai glanced at him and saw that he seemed a little embarrassed. He laughed and had a business look.

It was obvious that the other party didn't intend to answer. He shook his head at his wife and changed the subject.

"Xiao Wang, where did you say you were going?"

"How far is Zhouzhuang from the city? Are there any buses going to the city now?"

"Which city?" Xiao Shuai is very familiar with the area around 100 miles: "It takes about an hour to Jianzhou, about 40 minutes to Ma'anshan, and only 15 minutes to the nearest county town. There is a bus every hour, which is very convenient."

"Ma'anshan." Ning Zhou said directly.

"Then you don't have to go to Zhouzhuang. There is a highway exit in front. The last bus is at 7 pm. If you are not in a hurry, you can go to the town to sleep for a night. There will be a bus at 6 am tomorrow morning."

Ning Zhou unscrewed the cap of the mineral water and took a sip.

For him, everywhere is safe and nowhere is safe.

His whereabouts must have been exposed. If nothing unexpected happens, the pursuer should be at Yuhu Lake by now.

When I helped Xiao Shuai just now, there were vendors and customers around. I don't know if anyone noticed it. If I was seen and followed to Zhouzhuang, it would be very dangerous.

In fact, all along the way, he was most worried about the other party's cell phone ringing, fearing that the other party was asking him to stop.

Thinking of this, Ning Zhou made a decision to expose himself first.

"Handsome guy, I have an unwelcome request."

"You say."

Ning Zhou coughed lightly: "What if, I mean what if, if a star finds you, takes my photo or describes me with a similar image, and asks if you have taken him,

can you say yes, and then say that I went to Ma'anshan?"

"Star?"

Xiao Mei heard it, turned around and looked at Ning Zhou carefully. She usually likes to watch TV series and knows some stars. She can be sure that the young man in front of her is not.

"Yes, it may be Chen Weiting, Da Lao Shi, or someone else?"

"What do they want you for?"

Xiao Shuai's eyes were full of disbelief. In his life of more than 30 years, the biggest star he has seen is a singer from the city's art troupe.

"We are filming a program."

Ning Zhou did not say much, but showed the camera on his chest to the two.

"Are you really filming a show?"

"What is it? Let me search."

Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Ning Zhou could only explain, and Xiaomei took the phone and operated it.

"Oh, it's really you."

"Yes," Ning Zhou smiled: "So."

"No problem, leave it to me." Xiaoshuai was very happy: "I didn't expect that we actually picked up a star and appeared on TV."

Ning Zhou quickly denied: "I'm not a star, just like you, I'm an ordinary person, I just got lucky to come to this competition, today is the first day, I don't want to be caught."

"Don't worry, where are you going?"

"I plan to..."

After a little hesitation, Ning Zhou continued.

"We plan to make a feint to the east and attack the west. We will go to Zhouzhuang first and find a place to stay. If you are questioned, just follow my instructions and go to Ma'anshan."

"No problem."

The van drove for another ten minutes, and Ning Zhou saw the highway intersection. There were indeed people waiting, and the road to Zhouzhuang became much wider.

Soon after, they arrived in the town.

"I'll stay here."

Ning Zhou saw a hotel on the side of the road and said directly.

"It's expensive here, one hundred a day, and the hotel we went to only costs seventy, and the environment is not bad."

"It's too dangerous for me to stay with you."

"Oh, yes, that's fine."

After a few brief greetings, Ning Zhou got out of the car and walked into the hotel.

Xiao Shuai sighed as he disappeared from the back.

"You can encounter anything when you are alive."

"Do you think a star will really find us?"

Xiao Mei had a look of anticipation on her face, after all, she had never seen a star.

"I don't know, I guess they won't come, how far is it."

The two drove away while talking.

Less than half an hour later, a Red Flag car slowly drove into Zhouzhuang. The people in the car were naturally Teacher He and Yang Rong.
