Chapter 19 Motorcycle Driver
Chapter 19 Motorcycle Driver
Hearing these words, Ma Junjie felt even more disgusted with Wang Hu.
It turns out that Wang Hu is not only a bit ruthless, but also a scoundrel, which is truly despicable.
If this were in a rural area, people like Wang Hu would be the subject of gossip and criticism of his parents.
Ma Junjie turned his head and looked out the window.
The drizzling rain had become intermittent, almost nonexistent.
Ma Junjie smiled.
He turned around and walked out of the dormitory.
Wang Hu was still carefully tidying up the pimples on his face, without even tilting his head, as he shouted.
"Ah Jie, where are you going?"
Ma Junjie replied, "I'm going out to get my luggage."
"Do you need my help?"
Ma Junjie refused outright, "No need, it's not far!"
After saying that, Ma Junjie walked out of the dormitory.
When I went downstairs, I found that the rain had completely stopped.
Looking up again, you can even see the sun on the horizon.
Ma Junjie walked out of the factory and headed outside.
Once outside, the food street was rather deserted since it was past lunchtime.
Ma Junjie stood there for a moment, wondering how he could get something from Ma Li's house.
Thinking about it.
With a "whoosh," two motorcycles came speeding by.
"Handsome, where are you going? I'll give you a ride."
Ma Junjie glanced at the two enthusiastic drivers, then hesitated.
So he asked,
"How much does it cost to go to Shutian Village?"
"20 yuan!"
"15 yuan!"
Both drivers quoted prices at the same time.
Without further ado, Ma Junjie decisively chose the one with the lower price.
"Okay, I'll sit in your seat."
Another driver cursed and spat on the ground before angrily driving away.
Hop on a motorcycle, in Guangdong after the rain, the breeze is gentle and the air is cool and pleasant.
Ma Junjie felt very comfortable.
Although it cost another 15 yuan, I was hoping to get to Ma Li's house quickly to pick up my things, and then I could work at the factory and earn money.
From this perspective, Ma Junjie is willing to accept this amount of money.
The motorcycle sped along the road for a distance.
suddenly,
With a screech, the car made a sharp turn and veered onto a side road.
"Bang, bang, bang," the car bounced up and down, just like a roller coaster.
Ma Junjie couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine, becoming more cautious and vigilant.
Before he came to Guangdong, he had heard that motorcycle drivers in Guangdong were a special group.
They committed arson, murder, looting, and all sorts of evil deeds; the most notorious of these were the "motorcycle gangs."
He heard from villagers who had returned from working away from home that they had once seen a wealthy woman carrying a handbag walking down the street, being targeted by a motorcycle driver.
They followed behind, driving their car past quickly.
The accomplice in the back seat acted swiftly, grabbing her handbag when she wasn't looking. However, the wealthy woman was very wary and held on tightly.
Enraged, his accomplice pulled out a machete and severed the rich woman's hand with a single blow.
The car sped away.
The rich woman's severed hand was still tightly clutching her handbag when it was taken away.
This incident left a deep and lasting impression on Ma Junjie.
Now he was sitting on a motorcycle, and the driver, without saying a word, led him onto this bumpy dirt road.
The further we went, the more desolate the surroundings became.
After driving for a while, we came to a deserted wasteland, completely deserted.
Ma Junjie thought to himself, "This driver is probably up to some kind of scheme."
Could the driver have accomplices lying in ambush nearby?
Then I thought, "You get what you pay for." This driver's price is lower than others, so he probably set up a trap beforehand.
However, Ma Junjie was not flustered. He was not easily intimidated and had the strength to easily take on three or five people.
He thought to himself, "Let's see what tricks this driver will pull next."
Thinking this, the motorcycle indeed slowly came to a stop.
Ma Junjie guessed that the driver was about to take action.
So he asked,
"Driver, why are you stopping before we've arrived?"
The motorcycle driver hurriedly got off and explained.
"Hey buddy, everyone needs to pee sometimes. My stomach hurts so badly, I'm going to take a dump, it'll be quick."
After saying that, he turned around and disappeared into a patch of grass behind him.
Looking over, Ma Junjie saw that the bushes were taller than a person, and the driver had crawled inside, so there was no sign of him at all.
For a moment, the world was completely silent.
Faintly, the only sound could be the chirping of cicadas from the trees in the distance.
Ma Junjie got out of the car and looked around, keeping a watchful eye on anything that might happen.
He figured out where the accomplices were hiding if they were nearby, and from where they would launch their attack.
He tightened his body.
He reached into his pants pocket and felt around his underwear at an angle.
Hmm, it's bulging.
The money is still there.
The few hundred yuan hidden in his underwear represented his entire life savings; he would be relying on this money to survive for some time to come.
Ma Junjie has made up his mind.
If this driver wanted to rob me today...
He was determined to fight them to the death.
Just then, "Swish, swish!" A slight movement suddenly came from the bushes.
Ma Junjie immediately became extremely alert, keeping a close eye on the bushes.
"Swish, swish!" Several more sounds followed.
suddenly,
A figure rushed out, shouting,
"Come on, get in the car quickly, let's run!"
"Huh?" Ma Junjie was somewhat surprised.
Looking again, I saw a motorcycle driver running over carrying a large watermelon.
"Get in the car, handsome! A dog is chasing us!"
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie quickly got into the car.
"Boom!" The driver started the motorcycle and sped away.
On the bus, Ma Junjie was still a little confused.
The driver, however, burst into laughter.
He kept looking back and said,
"Damn, that was close! I almost got caught by the dog!"
Ma Junjie asked, "Master, why is the dog chasing you?"
The driver grinned.
"Haha, I took a dump and then stole a watermelon from the field next door, but the people in the shed caught me..."
"That was close, the dog almost caught up!"
"Uh, okay!" Ma Junjie suddenly realized.
The driver laughed again.
"Hey handsome, you seemed even more nervous than I was just now. Are you afraid of dogs too?"
"I..." Ma Junjie hesitated for a moment, then answered.
"Yes, I'm afraid of dogs, especially vicious dogs!"
The driver chuckled.
"Hey kid, this road is perfectly safe except for that dog spot."
"And, let me tell you, hehehe..."
The driver seemed hesitant to speak, which piqued Ma Junjie's curiosity.
He pressed on,
"Master, please tell me! Stopping halfway through is really making me curious!"
"Hehe!" the driver chuckled and replied.
"Guess why I charged you less than others?"
Ma Junjie thought to himself, "I initially thought you had accomplices trying to sabotage me."
Now it seems that's not the case; I really don't know anymore.
So he shook his head and said sincerely.
"I don't know why?"
The driver smiled, then spoke, his tone becoming smug.
"Why? Because I know the alley!"
"Taking this road to Shutian Village will save at least half the distance. I'll save time and fuel, which will naturally save you money!"
Ma Junjie suddenly realized that he had been overthinking things all along.
Just as I was about to say something,
The driver sped past behind a house, as if he had traveled through time, and instantly returned to the main road.
He stopped the car and said,
"Hey handsome, look, we've arrived!"
