He drove Su Su back to school.
In fact, Su Bai didn't want to drive around. He had the bronze box in his car. If it was found out, he would be charged with smuggling cultural relics. Judging from the reaction of the old man and the peaked cap man, this thing was definitely very important.
However, it was late at night and he couldn't get a taxi. As for He Su Su, as the saying goes, if business failed, he would be too embarrassed to leave a girl alone there at night.
Of course, it was because Su Bai wasn't hungry.
The quality of the old man's blood was very good. After Su Bai drank it, the feeling of being full still hadn't completely disappeared.
After stopping the car, Su Bai didn't say anything. Su Su didn't hurry to get out of the car. Instead, she looked at Su Bai.
"After I met you, I didn't …"
Su Bai raised his hand.
"There's no need to explain. You know."
Su Su nodded. There were some tears in her eyes, but she still got out of the car and said to Su Bai,
"Goodbye. Take care."
Su Bai responded faintly, "The same goes for you."
When Su Su turned around and walked to the school gate, Su Bai started the car again and left. He couldn't take the bronze box with him on the plane. He had to find someone to check it.
Moreover, it was also a kind of contraband. It was impossible to find a courier company, so he could only find someone he knew.
Su Bai remembered that he did have an acquaintance in this city.
He drove directly to the entrance of a courier company. It was a Shun Feng Express, but it also took on some shady business.
For example, some contraband, even … drugs and firearms.
Of course, the share was not very large, and the price was very high.
After parking the car outside, Su Bai went straight in.
The layout of the store was no different from a normal courier store. A courier saw Su Bai and immediately asked,
"Are you sending a package? Or a document? "
Su Bai shook his head. "I'm looking for Brother Jiu."
As soon as he heard that they were looking for Brother Nine, the courier signaled with his eyes. A female courier immediately walked through the inner door. Soon, she came out and nodded at the courier.
"Please."
Su Bai nodded and walked in. The inner door was actually a door behind the store. This row of stores had been built on the outskirts of a small district. Brother Jiu had probably bought the apartment behind the store and connected it directly to his store.
It was a little dark inside, but after turning a corner and pushing open the door, it became bright. The interior was similar to a study room. A middle-aged man with a knife scar on his face was sitting on a coffee table eating pig ears, pig head meat, and a bottle of white wine. The man was eating alone with relish.
"Brother Jiu."
Su Bai stood at the door and shouted.
The man who was eating and watching TV suddenly froze when he heard the voice. He immediately stood up and looked outside.
"Ah Bai, it's you!"
Brother Jiu looked very happy but also a little restrained. He wiped his hands on his body and pushed out the chair behind him.
"Take a seat, hurry up and take a seat. Ha ha! It's rare that you still think of me."
Su Bai did not sit. Instead, he stood to the side.
Brother Jiu, who was unhappy, said, "Take pity on me. Take it that you want me to see what your father looked like when he sat at the head of the table. How about that?"
Since Brother Jiu had said that, Su Bai did not say anything else. He just sat down. Brother Jiu chuckled and took out a cigarette. He lit it and squatted down in front of Su Bai.
"Ah Bai, what's the matter?"
"I have something that I want you to deliver to Chengdu." Su Bai told him the reason for his visit. However, he recalled that rainy night when he had stood in front of his house and seen Brother Jiu kneeling there, drenched in the rain and covered in blood.
That night had been the night his parents had met with an accident. Brother Jiu had been his father's bodyguard. He had returned, but his parents had not returned alive.
"Sure. Give me a detailed address. I will personally help you deliver it."
Without even asking what it was, he immediately agreed to it.
"Thank you, Brother Jiu."
"Alright, don't thank me. I don't deserve it. The person I have let down the most in my life is you. You know that."
"What happened to my parents has nothing to do with you, Brother Jiu."
"Alright, I was being unreasonable. It's rare for me to see you outside of the new year. Have you eaten yet? Do you want to have a drink with me tonight?"
Su Bai thought about it. His flight was tomorrow night, and he still had to go to the blood exchange tomorrow afternoon. Staying at Brother Jiu's place for the time being was indeed very convenient. Thus, he picked up the wine bottle and filled Brother Jiu's glass before filling it for himself.
Brother Jiu raised his glass and smacked his lips before putting it down.
"No, bring your stuff in first. I'll pack it up. Otherwise, if I drink too much, I might cause trouble."
"Alright."
Su Bai drove the car around and entered the residential area through the main entrance to the ground floor of Brother Jiu's house. Brother Jiu had Su Bai drive the car into his garage and pull down the shutter door.
The lights were on, and it was very bright inside. When Brother Jiu saw the bronze box, he silently picked up some plastic sheets and packed it up. He did not show any special intentions.
After he was done packing, Brother Jiu pulled Su Bai back to the previous room and the two of them sat down to drink together.
As they drank, Brother Jiu suddenly asked,
"Ah Bai, if you're interested in these relics, why don't you call your family?"
"You know that I don't want to trouble them."
"Hmm, that's true. Hehe, that's good. You should look for Brother Jiu to prove that you don't treat him as an outsider."
That night, Su Bai slept at Brother Jiu's place. The weather was very hot, so he laid down a mat on the bed and lay down to sleep. Su Bai slept soundly and did not dream. When he woke up, he felt refreshed.
He looked down at the time. It was already nine in the morning.
He got out of bed and walked to the bathroom. A new toothbrush, a mouthwash cup, and a towel were already prepared. After washing up, Su Bai walked out. When a delivery man saw Su Bai come out, he immediately walked over and said,
"Brother Jiu went to deliver the goods early in the morning."
Su Bai nodded. Brother Jiu was very attentive to his things. Of course, Su Bai also trusted Brother Jiu's character. At the very least, Brother Jiu treated him wholeheartedly.
After having a simple meal in the snack bar outside, he received a text message on his mobile phone: [Hello, Boss.]
"One in the afternoon, at the teahouse at the west entrance of Cha Ming Road Park."
After reading the message, Su Bai silently put his phone away.
Blood was a necessity when he went to Chengdu, and it just so happened that he had connections here to get it. It was much more convenient than waiting until he was in Chengdu. If something happened and he was hungry, he would have to find blood.
After eating, Su Bai sat down at the entrance of the express delivery shop. He took out his phone and checked the official account. He discovered that there were a few more messages posted on the official account. They were all mass messages meant for all listeners.
There were a few live broadcasts of the stories. Some people died miserably, but others survived.
In particular, Su Bai saw a picture at the bottom of one of the messages. In the picture, there was a man with his upper body bare. Behind him was a ground of zombie flesh and blood. The man's face and body had been blurred. In fact, all the characters in the messages had been blurred. Only in the message of the story mission that Su Bai had experienced, he could clearly see his own image and that of others.
This should be treated differently. It was kept a secret from others.
After looking at the messages, Su Bai suddenly felt that the two story worlds he had experienced were probably child's play in front of some people.
However, when he thought about how many perverted listeners had been created by the horror broadcast in this world, Su Bai had a very absurd feeling. What was the purpose of this horror broadcast? Was it really just to let the listeners experience that kind of horror? Then create a bunch of crazy people? Perverted mentality, perverted ability.
Was it really that boring?
Su Bai looked at the time and felt that it was about time, so he got ready to drive to that place. The car was parked outside Brother Jiu's garage. Su Bai got in the car and fastened his seatbelt. However, just as Su Bai was about to start the car, he suddenly turned his head. There was actually a black cat sitting in the back seat. The black cat just sat there quietly, its amber-like eyes staring at Su Bai calmly.
The man and the cat just stared at each other, but cold sweat was already dripping from Su Bai's forehead. Su Bai felt a suffocating feeling, and his whole body felt like it was on the verge of collapsing.
