Strange Life of a Cat - Chapter 329

[Chapter 318 The Cat in the Vest]
Zheng Tan sat in the back seat of the car, looking out the window.
Different from the liveliness of previous years, this year seems to be a bit deserted. Perhaps there are reasons for the lower temperature than usual, and the impact of the snow disaster. In serious villages, towns, mountainous areas, and cities, the situation is much better. The most complaints from citizens are probably the freezing and cracking of water pipes a few days ago.
Others, who do not have the trouble of riding a car and have no direct economic conflict of interest, are just spectators and will not affect their normal life. They only discuss a few words with people when they watch the news every day.
Dad Jiao has been driving the traffic radio channel. The weather has eased a lot in the past two days. Many stranded people have rushed to set off these two days. There are quite a lot of black cars and so on. They probably want to make more money during this time.
In order to prevent traffic jams, Dad Jiao deliberately got up early and set off. I didn’t expect that many people thought the same way as Dad Jiao. There were many vehicles on the road in the early morning, and there were still several small-scale traffic jams on the road, especially At those intersections, looking forward to the long line of cars makes me feel particularly annoyed.
It had been an hour and a half when he finally got out of the city. This was the first time Zheng Tan had encountered such a situation. He stopped and went into a panic.
According to the previous driving route, go straight to the expressway after leaving the urban area. The expressway here was closed a few days ago, but it has been unblocked in the past two days. However, when we were about to get there, the traffic broadcast reported that the expressway encountered an accident on the other side. In the event of an accident, I hope that the vehicles that are going there will be diverted.
No one knows how long it will be blocked because of the accident, and Jiao Dad can’t help it.
Can only change the road, do not take the high-speed for other routes.
When passing by a few passenger stations, Zheng Tan glanced over there. There was still a large crowd around. The waiting hall was full, and some people were waiting outside the door. There were also armed police there to maintain order.
Zheng Tan also saw taxis, taxis, and privately soliciting passenger cars outside the passenger terminal. Some people held signs with the names of various counties and cities, shouting and walking, pulling passengers.
This is probably what some people call black cars, but at this time, people no longer consider black cars or black cars.
Just get in the car.
Vulnerable people such as the elderly, the weak, the sick, the disabled, and pregnant when crowding a car.
Not many people will give way at all, and they will still rush when it is time to rush.
Zheng Tan’s route after leaving the city was relatively unfamiliar. He looked at the buildings on both sides and recorded the new route information.
The road is still a little icy.
But it’s much better than before.
Jiao Dad can still control it if he drives slowly.
It’s just that some vehicles are racing as fast as they are in a hurry.
He was always pushing forward, for fear of falling behind, and he almost collided with Jiao Dad’s car twice.
Zheng Tan just scolded those two guys who were overtaking in his heart.
A motorcycle driver suddenly inserted into Zheng Tan’s car and the car in front from the diagonal, and then quickly passed through the lateral gap between the car in front and the other car.
Zheng Tan was heartbroken. Surprised, does this person trust his own driving skills too much, or is there an emergency?
Ten minutes later, the car stopped again, Zheng Tanli got up and looked forward, the convoy formed again, and the traffic jam was again.
After waiting for a while, there was still no movement. Jiao Dad opened the car window to let in some air. It was very warm in the car, and his nerves were tense when he was driving. Now he is more awake with the cold wind.
“Hei Tan, is it cold?” Jiao Dad looked at Zheng Tan in the back seat.
After the window was opened, the cold air poured in, dissipating a lot of warmth from the car.
The wet and cold weather in the south always makes many people in the north very uncomfortable, but Zheng Tan, who used to live in the further south, has become accustomed to it after a few years.
Even though it’s extremely cold this year, Zheng Tan feels okay. The vest he wears today is the winter style given by Xiao Guo.
Xiao Guo gave two pieces, one black and one army green. Not only can the vest pockets hold things, but they should also be thicker and warmer. I heard that they are still waterproof.
Seeing that Zheng Tan didn’t seem to be feeling cold, Dad Jiao didn’t ask any more questions.
The driver in the car on the left was smoking outside the car. There were children in their car, and they couldn’t smoke well in the car, so they went outside, saw Dad Jiao open the car window and started chatting. He has driven nearly 20 times. It’s been an hour’s drive. Although someone took over and rested for five hours in the middle, the person who took over was not good at driving and almost had an accident, so he was driving most of the time. Now he is in a traffic jam and comes out to smoke a cigarette to refresh himself.
The driver of the car in front also came to join the chat. He solicited customers privately. “Yesterday was fine, and the traffic jam didn’t last long. Today, I was unlucky. It was blocked for half an hour when I came out in the morning, and now it’s blocked again.”
“Ten Can you go in minutes?” asked the driver of the car on the left.
“It’s hard, there was a car accident ahead. A motorcycle, two private cars, and a truck all hit it. Fortunately, no one was killed. Three people were seriously injured and were sent to the hospital. The two private cars were left behind. The people were quarreling, and no one moved their feet. I heard that the car was quite expensive. It also broke a telephone pole, plus the overturned vehicle, and something dropped from the truck. It is estimated that at least it has to be It
only takes 20 minutes to open to traffic.”
The driver who solicited customers privately said that driving a few days ago was even more difficult. Usually, it only took a little more than two hours to make a trip. Some time ago, it took more than 10 hours to drive through the snow. You may break down on the road at any time, the hardships on the road can only be known after driving, and you are exhausted to death.
It’s no wonder that the fare doubles and doubles again. The usual fare of fifty yuan is now one hundred to one hundred and fifteen for one person to join a black car, and it has soared to more than two hundred a few days ago.
While we were chatting, another person came over from the front of the convoy and asked the two drivers and Dad Jiao to help in the front. There were not enough manpower and there were many obstacles.
Otherwise, you will have to wait a while.
The driver of the car in front shook his head. He didn’t want to go. He had to look at the car. There were passengers in his car he didn’t know.
What if I took something valuable?
What should I do if the people in the car make a fuss?
The driver of the car next to him didn’t feel anything, and walked forward with Dad Jiao smoking a cigarette.
The doors were unlocked, the windows were closed, and soon the temperature inside the car rose again.
Before Papa Jiao left, Zheng Tan was watching to order the car, so now Zheng Tan didn’t take a nap.
Pay attention to the people around the car.
Soon, Zheng Tan noticed someone walking from the front, and he looked inside the car twice. At a glance, Zheng Tan knew that it was a guy with a crooked mind. The guy saw the computer on the passenger seat. When I pack, my eyes stop for a little longer.
There was a glint of joy in the man’s eyes, and then he walked to the door in a normal manner, opened the door on the passenger seat, and then, just as he was about to reach for the computer bag on the seat, a dark shadow flashed. Pass.
There was a sudden pain on the face.
The man was kicked out and sat on the ground without standing still.
The man’s eyes were full of disbelief. He just saw that there was no one in the car, and the door didn’t seem to be locked.
The cat in the vest was directly ignored by him.
He does this a lot.
The whole operation won’t take long at all, just open the door and twist the bag, even if the door is locked, he can do it.
But I didn’t expect it to be a very simple thing, but I found that the reality was seriously inconsistent with the expectations.
Touching his nose, the man looked at the blood on his hand, and then looked at Zheng Tan.
Zheng Tan squinted, this person still not giving up?
Looking for a kick? This is it?
!
Jumping up is another kick.
The man raised his hand to block it, but he misestimated Zheng Tan’s strength. Although he reacted quickly and raised his forearm to block Zheng Tan’s kick, the force of the kick made the man lean back and bump his head against the side. A private car made a thud.
At the same time, Zheng Tan also scratched the man’s down jacket, and when the wind blew, duck down flew everywhere.
That person was wearing a brand down jacket but doing this kind of theft, making it difficult for Zheng Tan to understand.
However, there are many such people. When I was online a few days ago, I saw someone posting a complaint, but I didn’t expect to encounter it today.
The driver of the private car on the right opened the window after hearing the movement, then looked at the person on the ground, and then at Zheng Tan, “Hey, what is this for?”
Before he could finish speaking, the rear window also opened, and the two teenage children looked out the window. The little girl said, “Uncle, this person must be a thief!”
“It must be a thief!” the little boy added. , “The cat in the vest is teaching the thief!”
The man on the ground looked a little embarrassed, and there was blood on his face, from nose to mouth, because he touched it with his hand and wiped some blood on his face, and there was a There is a long slit, and some duck down inside is blown out with the wind.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the man didn’t care about the nosebleed and the scratched down jacket. Before everyone around looked at it, he immediately got up and ran. He ran too fast and didn’t know what he stepped on. His foot slipped and he fell. Not caring about the pain, I got up and continued to run.
When Dad Jiao came back, the man had already disappeared. Hearing the driver of the car on the right talk about what happened just now, Dad Jiao smiled at the other party’s various questions and didn’t say much.
“I see that your cat is good, male and female?” the other party asked.
“Male’s.” “Well, that’s just right. I also have a female cat at home. How about the one with
folded
ears?”
Seeing Zheng Tan turn around and get into the car, Dad Jiao smiled at the man, “This cat in my house is just an earth cat.”
“It’s okay, I don’t mind.” The man waved his hand and said indifferently.
Dad Jiao: “…”
Fortunately, the front was cleared quickly, the UU Kanshu www.sonicmtl.com motorcade began to move slowly, and Dad Jiao got on the car after a few perfunctory words.
Jiao Dad didn’t say much about what Zheng Tan just said, just smiled and gave Zheng Tan a thumbs up.
Although the first half of this return journey was rough and encountered a few traffic jams, it was a lot smoother after that, because there were many vehicles coming and going, and there was no snow, the temperature rose a little during the day, and there was no ice on the ground. So, the second half of the trip went smoothly.
As usual, Dad Jiao went to the county seat first, had a meal and rested for a while, called to report that he was safe, and then continued to go to his hometown.
There are a few sections of roads in Jiao’s hometown that are not very easy to walk. After driving slowly, it will be much better. Mr. Jiao is already waiting at the head of the village, because he knows that only Jiao’s father is driving alone, so he doesn’t dare to keep calling and asking, afraid of Jiao’s father. Distracted, he immediately laughed when he saw Jiao Dad’s car.
For many people, the way back home during the Chinese New Year is staggering and unforgettable. Relatively speaking, Zheng Tan and the others have done a good job.
(To be continued..)
