This voice... Why does it sound a bit like Old Kai?
Xiao Mandong waited in the space for a long time. Estimating that the two people had gone far away, she slipped out of the space and quickly bolted the toilet door.
In the small and cramped toilet, even though the window was open, the stench mixed with the smell of tobacco and soapy water made her feel nauseous.
That woman was clearly very young, but she disguised herself as an old woman to get on the train. There must be something fishy about it. Moreover, she always struck up conversations with people and just mentioned Jiang Yue. Xiao Mandong suspected that these two people were human traffickers.
The woman said she had something placed here. Xiao Mandong was very curious about what exactly it was that needed to be hidden in a place like the train toilet.
Her eyes scanned every corner of the toilet and finally landed behind the old-fashioned water tank beside the squatting pit.
There were obvious signs of prying at the gap between the two iron plates behind the water tank.
She squatted down, hooked her fingertips on the edge of the gap, and pulled hard. The iron plate was pried open a bit.
Xiao Mandong instinctively held her breath. She slowly reached her hand in and touched something hard, which seemed to be wrapped in paper.
She carefully took out the thing and unwrapped the straw paper. At one glance, Xiao Mandong's hand trembled, and she almost dropped the thing through the hole in the toilet. Inside was actually a pistol.
Cold sweat instantly broke out on her back, and the chill ran up her spine. In two lifetimes combined, she had never touched such a thing.
Xiao Mandong immediately took out a cucumber from the space, wrapped it in the original straw paper, put it back in place, and then restored the iron plate. After doing all this, she quickly opened the bolt of the toilet door and slipped back into the space. She felt that her heart was about to jump out of her throat.
She couldn't go out now because she was sure that the two people were spies.
She had experienced the sharpness of spies. She could only wait in the space now. Only when more people came in and out of the toilet, the scents mixed, and the traces were messed up would the other side not suspect her.
Time passed by second by second. People were coming and going in the toilet. The sounds of flushing, coughing, and footsteps, the "whooshing" and "plopping" sounds really made Xiao Mandong a bit crazy. She didn't know what to do now.
Xiao Mandong found that she had a special connection with toilets. Last time, she also hid from Director Huang in the toilet. When she ran away, she made a mess of the toilet. This time, it was still the toilet. Well! Anyway, she got a lot of benefits last time. This time, she just got such a useless thing and had to listen to these sounds...
The original hunger had long since disappeared. Xiao Mandong was afraid that the pistol had a smell, so she washed her hands several times. She changed into a shabby set of clothes and shoes, redid her hair, wrapped a tattered shawl around her neck to cover her face, and waited for about half an hour more before she held her breath and slipped out again.
After walking out of the toilet, Xiao Mandong headed straight for the hard-seat carriage. After passing through three carriages in a row, she found an empty toilet. After entering the space to change her clothes back, she hurriedly walked towards the sleeper carriage.
She lowered her head and walked quickly. Just as she turned the corner between two carriages, someone suddenly grabbed her arm.
Xiao Mandong was greatly startled. Her first reaction was to break free and escape.
"Xiao Mandong, why are you here?"
Hearing the voice, she looked up and found that the person who had grabbed her was actually Li Fengmei. Only then did the hanging heart in her chest relax a little.
"Where I am has nothing to do with you. Get out of the way."
Xiao Mandong tried to shake off Li Fengmei's hand, but unexpectedly, she grabbed it even tighter.
The Li Fengmei in front of her was completely different from before. Her hair was as messy as a chicken coop, there were dark circles under her eyes, her lips were chapped, and her voice was hoarse. It could be seen that Li Fengmei must have been having a hard time these days, unable to eat or sleep well.
"You little dead girl, do you know that you've ruined our whole family? Your uncle has been fired from the factory. How could you be so heartless? We're your relatives. Reporting your own uncle, are you still human?"
As soon as Li Fengmei said these words, the surrounding passengers all looked over.
In this era, what was the most hated and despised thing among people?
It was a person who reported their own relatives.
"Such a person should be sent to a farm for reform. Her heart is completely rotten."
An aunt spat on the ground.
Her natal family had been reported, and her parents and brothers had really suffered a lot. Just thinking about it now, tears welled up in her eyes.
"Send her to the northwest and let her eat sand every day."
"She's so young and beautiful, but her heart is so black. Her face should be scratched."
The crowd was filled with righteous indignation and accused one after another.
"Don't let her die. In my opinion, she should be left half - dead."
Hearing the people around her speaking up for her, Li Fengmei felt even more aggrieved, with snot and tears all over her face.
"You don't know. Her family is a capitalist family and has already been sent down to the countryside. My sister - in - law has cut off relations with their family. Just because of this, Xiao Mandong holds a grudge against our family, so she reported my husband."
"My husband is her own uncle! There are still four children in our family to support, and there is also an old mother - in - law. My husband has lost his job. How can our whole family survive? It's really a sin!"
At this time, out of the corner of her eye, Xiao Mandong suddenly saw the two disguised spies in the crowd. She suddenly thought that Li Fengmei's appearance was quite timely. It just gave her a proper reason for her long disappearance.
"Aunt, you've been pestering me here for so long. What on earth do you want? Everyone, listen up. My real aunt died because of this woman. It was her. She had an affair with my uncle, and when my aunt saw them, she was so angry that she had a premature birth and died in the delivery room..."
"Shut up. You're talking nonsense."
Li Fengmei quickly interrupted Xiao Mandong's words and raised her hand to hit Xiao Mandong in the face, but was stopped by Xiao Zhenyu, who had just strolled back.
"Sister, why are you on the train? Are you going home to clear uncle's name?"
At this time, Li Fengmei suddenly came to her senses. Xiao Mandong's appearance on this train at this time must mean that she was going home to clarify things. Why didn't she realize it just now? Now it was all over. She had completely offended Xiao Mandong.
Li Fengmei's face turned green and then white. It was extremely ugly.
"Mandong, I was too impulsive just now. I'm sorry. Look at you. If you had explained things earlier, there wouldn't have been so many misunderstandings."
"Oh? So you mean you were wrong? Then was what I just said the truth?"
Li Fengmei wanted to deny it, but now she didn't dare to offend Xiao Mandong. So she gritted her back teeth and silently admitted her affair with Wang Fugui.
The people who had just been accusing Xiao Mandong now immediately turned their accusations towards Li Fengmei.
"What a shame. Reporting her was already too light. How can such a person have the nerve to play the victim here?"
"Girl, you did the right thing. Don't go to clear up the misunderstanding. Your uncle had an affair while his wife was pregnant. He must not be a good person. Such a person doesn't deserve to have a job."
"Yes, they should all be made to beg for food."
Xiao Mandong thought the timing was about right. She gave Li Fengmei a fierce glare and then turned around and walked towards her own carriage.
