Finding a spare toolbox in the trunk, he began to exarow dark, and the clouds beca out the reat effort, Ye Xuan finally fixed the car four hours later
When he opened up the car, he noticed that the circuits weren’t the only problem There were also battery issues The tires also seemed to be punctured
The road was remote, and there were no traces of people at all In four hours, he hadn’t seen a single car pass by
By the time the Jeep was fixed and ready for the road, it was already 1 arease It was on his body as well When he returned to the hotel, the doorman almost didn’t let him in

This was a quiet little town The biggest neas typically so
The current situation seemed to be extraordinary
However, most of the people in the hotel were already deeply asleep
The hotel s had excellent soundproofing, so people didn’t hear the sirens outside
