Taxi at night

Chapter 127, the truck on fire
The strangest thing Lu Ren encountered was that a taxi driver accidentally touched the alarm switch, and the electronic display board installed on the top of the car immediately popped up several big red characters: I was hijacked, please call the police immediately.

At this time, the taxi driver knew nothing about it, and still drove the taxi all over the street.The other taxi drivers saw this, how did they know what happened?Call the police one after another, or follow closely behind, ready to slow down at the right time...

In the blink of an eye, June entered, and the taxi business was gradually slowing down. At this time, the personal connections accumulated in the past became more important. In this regard, Lu Ren had a lot of customers, so that the monthly income would not drop too much.

For example, when Sister Gan used a car to go to the battlefield, she would call Lu Ren in advance, at least four or five times a month, and sometimes three or five times a week.In addition, there is another big car user, that is, Zhao Xiaoxiao and others who work in KTV, and the monthly frequency of car use is quite considerable.The most important point is that 80% of the car use time occurs after midnight, and under normal circumstances, business in the second half of the night is the most light and lonely of the day.You can imagine that in the dead of night, suddenly there is a long-distance trip, and you pocket hundreds of yuan in income, while some other colleagues are still waiting foolishly, suffering, Lu Ren's heart This will give birth to a sense of accomplishment.

In addition, there are some other customers, no less than dozens of them in Lu Ren's small notebook.

In fact, to put it bluntly, soliciting customers in taxis is also a business, not just a simple matter of waving to stop and soliciting customers.If you really think so, it is conceivable that your business will not be much better?Especially in the off season.

Business was particularly bad tonight. From the moment Lu Ren picked up the car, he ran until 11:100, and only spent more than [-] yuan in dime money. After excluding the money for oil and gas, he only had a few tens of dollars in income, which made him very nervous. frustrated.

So far, there have been no long-distance trips, and even short-distance trips are few and far between. The streets are full of empty cars with red lights flashing, but there are very few passengers in the cars. Tonight is not ordinary.

Just when Lu Ren was downcast, an unexpected call came. It turned out to be Zhou Yuren from Laomiao Township Middle School. The two of them seldom contacted each other now. A call came suddenly in the middle of the night, which made him inexplicably nervous.Because he thought of Tang Xue, it couldn't be that this ghost girl got into trouble again, right?
"Hey, Brother Lu, where are you?" Zhou Yuren called out affectionately on the phone, as if the two were very close, but in fact it was just an ordinary relationship.

"Is it Teacher Zhou? It's been a long time since I saw you. What can I do for you?"

"Brother Lu, I just picked up a friend at the train station. If it's convenient, can you come over and see us off?" Lu Ren couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard it, let alone once, but twice That's okay too!Business was so light tonight it was hopeless.

"Just wait, I'll be here in a minute." The distance between the two was only a few hundred meters, and Lu Ren drove over with one quick acceleration.

"Oh, you are so fast!" Zhou Yuren laughed, pointing to a young man carrying a luggage bag, "This is my classmate from college, who came to see me by train. Brother Lu... take us back to school. "

"Does your school have extra houses?"

Lu Ren once heard Tang Xue mutter that there were six teachers in one room, and it would be a disaster in summer.Zhou Yuren doesn't live in a hotel, and lures his classmates to the school. Could it be that he lives in a room by himself?

"I don't live on campus now, but live in a friend's house. His newly built house is very spacious. Fortunately, otherwise, my classmate will come, and I really have nowhere to go, so I can only live in a hotel."

Only then did Lu Ren suddenly realize that it was so.

From the railway station to Laomiao Township Middle School, the distance is about 12 kilometers.For Lu Ren, it was only ten minutes. If he ran faster, he would arrive in ten minutes, especially in the middle of the night.

"Mr. Zhou, isn't school going to be on holiday soon?" Lu Ren had nothing to say. Driving in the middle of the night, the drivers tend to get sleepy, so it's best to talk to relieve fatigue.

"There are still three weeks left until the final exam is over. I heard that your sister Tang Xue is planning to go out to play in the summer vacation, isn't that true?" Zhou Yuren asked this question abruptly, but Lu Ren was stunned. have no idea.

"Who did you hear?"

"It was said by a few female teachers while chatting, it seems to be a netizen I met on the Internet, and invited her to go to play. Brother Lu, don't you know about this?"

Ever since Tang Xue came to Laomiao Township Middle School, Zhou Yuren has been courting her overtly and secretly, as the so-called "a fair lady is a gentleman", but judging from tonight's situation, it seems that he has not been able to fulfill his wish.

However, Lu Ren also sensed a sour smell from it. The netizen whom he hadn't met was probably a boy. Zhou Yuren probably had another purpose in taking his own car tonight.

"I rarely get involved in her affairs. You also know that we are not real siblings. If she doesn't tell me, I'm too embarrassed to ask." The relationship between Lu Ren and Tang Xue is very pure, there is no such messy connection.There is also normal communication and normal concern between the two of them.

"It seems to be a male netizen, Brother Lu. In my opinion, you have to persuade Tang Xue not to let her fall into the trap of the bad guys." Zhou Yuren said solemnly, as if he put all his hopes on Lu Ren, but He had a high opinion of Lu Ren.

Once Tang Xue recognized the truth, Lu Ren couldn't stop her.

"Let me try!" Lu Ren was not sure, this was Tang Xue's own private matter, so it was not easy to intervene.

After talking for a short time, the taxi quickly arrived at the entrance of the middle school, and Zhou Yuren and the two got out of the car.

Lu Ren looked at the pitch-black campus, stared at it for a while, then turned around and drove to the city along the national highway.Soon, a truck was driving towards him, and the dazzling lights dazzled him for a while. According to the regulations, when driving at night, they should change their lights and drive safely.

The moment the two cars passed by, Lu Ren was surprised to find that one of the rear tires of the truck was on fire, and a smell of burnt leather wafted into his nostrils.

"Oh, the driver must be a young man. It stands to reason that the rear wheels are on fire and sparks are shining everywhere at night, so it is easy to spot. As long as the driver is cautious, it is not difficult to find the burning flames through the rearview mirror." Lu Ren thought to himself, What should I do?Did you turn around and chase him?

Just when Lu Ren was hesitating, the truck had long since disappeared, and it seemed to be running faster than Lu Ren.

It is not in Lu Ren's nature to see death without saving him.This can be seen from the matter of rescuing Tang Xue, as if it was born like this in his bones.

I don't know what is being pulled on the truck, but no matter what it is, once it burns, the car may be destroyed... Thinking of this, Lu Ren no longer hesitated, and immediately turned the front of the truck with the fastest speed. Speed ​​to chase.

Ordinarily, it would not be a problem for the car to chase the truck. What annoyed Lu Ren was that the truck was extremely fast. After chasing for about 10 minutes, he only saw the rear of the truck and the raging flames.
