Chapter 50 Chapter 50 (2/2)
As such, one cannot rule out the possibility of Chief Wang’s end being interfered with. Duan Wen right now needed to hurry over to ensure that something like that did not happen.
Song Qinglan continued and said to Tang Qi, “You two go find Chun’er and Old Zhou. As soon as Advisor Ji and I arrive, we will meet at the nursing home.”
Everyone: “Roger.”
“Wait!!” Song Qinglan said, “Along the way, you may meet people you know or don’t know trying to make you do something. Take care of yourself and…..don’t follow them.”
The phone call ended.
An announcement sounded on the platform, reminding them that the suspended train bound for Jiang City East Station was about to arrive.
Song Qinglan, “We should go now.”
Ji Yushi nodded.
The two strode over to the platform.
As soon as they appeared, people sitting in the waiting room reading books, drinking water, chatting or just passing by started to look at them. These people placed down everything in their hands, stood up with blank expressions and hollow eyes, and proceeded to chase after them.
Ji Yushi walked very fast. He followed behind Song Qinglan and was more nervous than ever before.
His phone continued to ring but he subconsciously knew who the caller was.
Song Qinglan noticed this and turned around, “Give it to me.”
Ji Yushi took his phone out of his pocket somewhat hesitantly.
Song Qinglan grabbed it and saw the word ‘teacher’ displayed on the screen. Ji Yushi’s interference was here again. As he walked towards the train, he threw the phone into the bin without batting his eyes.
Ji Yushi looked back, “!”
He almost couldn’t stop himself from going to that bin.
But Song Qinglan grabbed his wrist to stop him and pulled him over to the platform.
When the suspended train arrived, the two randomly boarded a carriage.
Some got out of the carriage, some got on.
Some left their seats like zombies, following behind them or blocking them.
Song Qinglan ignored them all, bumping them into disarray and attracting complaints from the normal people in the process.
They walked to the carriage at the end of the train and the sound of the suspended train setting off sounded. Song Qinglan opened the door to the bathroom and pushed the other person in.
Those who interfered with them lost their targets and gradually dispersed.
The bathroom was clean and tidy, but the space was small. With two full-grown men with long legs inside, it made it even more cramped. This scene was quite familiar. Ji Yushi remembered that there was probably a time when the two of them from Team B separated from the rest of team at Runjin Building in the Ouroboros mission and hid in a small room. He had stepped on Song Qinglan’s foot at that time.
The difference this time was that as soon as the door was closed this time, a cold object clamped onto Ji Yushi’s wrist.
There was a ‘click’.
Ji Yushi looked down. There was an additional handcuff around his wrist. He went through his memories very quickly and the details of the carriages they had passed by came to his mind.
When they passed a certain carriage, they happened to encounter a police officer on duty.
Ji Yushi was shocked, “Cap Song?!”
Song Qinglan had no plan on negotiating with him. He then proceeded to handcuff himself with a ‘click’.
He raised his hand. The shiny handcuff completely bound the two together. His expression was even a little content, “Took it from the police officer just now.”
Ji Yushi was speechless, “I won’t be able to escape that easily anyway.”
Song Qinglan leaned against the washstand. He seemed to be able to finally breathe a sigh of relief now and said lazily, “Who knows? Don’t worry, Advisor Ji. Now you won’t be able to escape no matter what.”
Outside the small bathroom window, the scenery blurred into a haze. In a short time, the suspended train had reached maximum speed.
Suddenly, the carriage slammed to the right and a strong sense of weightlessness struck. The two subconsciously grabbed the objects beside them to stabilise themselves and heard the cries of the other passengers outside.
“What’s going on?!”
“I don’t know!!”
Before the two had the time to speak, they heard a loud noise accompanied by a sharp screech. The carriage flipped over and was thrown in a certain direction!
“Ahhh!!!!”
More screams filled their eardrums.
After the carriage overturned, it overhung from a height. The alarm sounded endlessly. The bullet-proof glass shattered and fell off.
Under the hole that had suddenly appeared was a lake 100 metres away from them. Passengers and objects fell from the carriage windows, falling into the water below.
Ji Yushi’s entire body hung from the window. The toilet rolls in the bathroom rolled about chaotically.
Even if it was water, falling from such a high point would undoubtedly result in death.
“Ji Yushi!!”
Song Qinglan grabbed his hand.
Thanks to the handcuffs, it gave Song Qinglan time to react.
The young and tall man had amazing arm strength. In this case, he had grabbed another adult male with one hand. Veins bulged out from his arm.
Ji Yushi grabbed Song Qinglan’s hand back. His body was like a roll of paper, as if he would fall with just a soft blow.
Song Qinglan used his other injured hand to grab onto the shelf in the bathroom. He could only rely on this alone as support. If the shelf broke off, they would die together on the spot.
“Ahhhhh!”
People fell out through the windows.
“Don’t look!” Song Qinglan’s face was turning red. He squeezed out a few more words through his teeth with much difficulty, “Grab onto me!”
Ji Yushi looked back with a pale face. He drove the scene just now out of his mind and used his other hand to grab onto Song Qinglan.
In a situation like this, the Ju-Jitsu Ji Yushi had learnt came into use. He curled up his body and reached towards the washstand with his long legs, managing to find another point of support for himself.
With his life hanging by a thin thread, Ji Yushi successfully opened the bathroom door.
The train had completely overturned and was hanging upside down on the tracks in the air.
The hot steam beside the tracks made Ji Yushi sweat endlessly. Song Qinglan raised his handcuffed hand to help facilitate his movements. He crawled out and managed to pull Song Qinglan out with difficulty.
There were many passengers already standing on the track.
Some were standing there dumbly. Some were crying.
The two who had managed to escape from such a dangerous situation didn’t even have the change to feel scared. The scene before them shocked them.
On the tracks in front of them, a phantom of a suspended train appeared.
The colour was exactly the same as the overturned one behind them, as if their train had been pushed aside because of its appearance.
The beginning and the end of this phantom train couldn’t be seen clearly. It was clearly running at high speed, but at this time it was as if the pause button had been selected. There were no sounds at all.
Song Qinglan randomly picked up an item scattered on the ground and threw it at the phantom,
The item bounced away.
The phantom actually had a physical body.
A large tear had formed on Ji Yushi’s clothes. Following that incident just now, he was in a rather sorry state, “It’s an overlap……”
His brain worked quickly, and his eyes suddenly brightened, “Cap Song, the two realities have overlapped — We must have encountered something crucial!”
Song Qinglan looked at his phone, “Old Duan found Chief Wang.”
As soon as he finished saying that, their surroundings suddenly turned quiet.
When they turned their heads and looked over, they saw all the surviving passengers on the tracks looking back at them.
