Chapter 487 - She Has Been Following me (2/2)
What is he afraid of?
Xiao Gu was confused. The way the driver looked at him was weird, like he was trying to tell him something.
The rain turned heavier. It was two different worlds inside and outside the bus. Xiao Gu lost his desire to sleep and turned to silently study the other passengers on the bus. The bus flew in the night, and it soon arrived at the next station. The bus entered the station, and when it was safely stopped, the electronic voice said, “Ding! We’ve arrived at Central Hospital. Departing customers, please make sure that you have all of your belongings with you, and please alight from the back door.”
Both front and back doors opened at the same time, and the rain outside dripped into the bus. Soon, a middle-aged man with a red thread around his wrist stepped onto the bus. He was wearing a white coat, so he was probably a doctor at Central Hospital.
The doctor rummaged through his pocket for a long time to look for change, but he could not find it. The driver saw that it was raining, so he waved for the man to get in first, and he could look for the change at his seat.
The front door closed, and the doctor walked onto the bus, holding the rails. When he passed Xiao Gu, he paused and turned to look at him. Sitting in his seat, Xiao Gu raised his head to look at the doctor. He realized that the doctor had a strange look. His brows were thick, and when he looked at people, his eyes would bulge like they were going to fall out.
“Hello…” Xiao Gu felt awkward, being stared by the doctor. He stood up and prepared to leave at the next stop.
Seeing Xiao Gu stand up, the doctor moved backward and smiled apologetically at Xiao Gu. He sat on the seat on the other side of Xiao Gu. The bus was dark, and Xiao Gu believed that he had seen that the doctor’s mouth had no teeth when he smiled earlier. He held the paper in his pocket and did not stay long at his seat. He moved to the backdoor directly.
Maybe I should just call for a taxi.
Holding the rail, Xiao Gu moved to the door ,and when he arrived, his body froze, and his face filled with disbelief.
Standing at the bus stop was a woman in a red raincoat. The woman had her head lowered, and her wet hair stuck together to block her face.
The same woman from before? Why is she here? This isn’t the same stop, right‽
Gu Feiyu was stunned when the cold voice began again. “The vehicle will start soon. Please take your seat. Welcome to the driverless bus for Route 104. Dear passenger, please move closer to the backdoor. Our next stop is Hong Si Restaurant.”
The backdoor slowly closed, and Xiao Gu snapped back to reality. Why would the woman in the raincoat appear at the station near Central Hospital? And she was closer to the door compared to before! Is she following me?
With sweat sliding down his face, Xiao Gu’s expression was no different from the driver’s earlier. He held the railing tightly and did not return to his seat instantly.
“Are… you feeling okay?” A chilling voice suddenly came from behind him—the doctor was staring at Xiao Gu.
“I’m fine.” Xiao Gu went back to his seat, and he lowered his voice to ask, “Sir, did you see a woman in a red raincoat standing near the backdoor at the stop earlier?”
“Red raincoat?” The doctor shook his head. “I don’t think so.”
“Impossible.” Xiao Gu turned to ask the student at the last row. “Did you see that woman earlier? She was standing at the bus stop!”
The student ignored Xiao Gu. He did not even turn his head to him. He kept his face on the rain outside the window, but his hands kept moving inside his bag like he was looking for something.
