Ding Ling's reminder caused the other comrades to look over with concern. Ye Chien smiled and said, "It's nothing serious. It's just a common cold. Let's all get some rest."
"You sleep. We'll keep watch."
"Go to sleep. We still have about three hours before we reach the station. We'll leave four people to keep watch."
"Everyone, rest. Don't disturb the other passengers' sleep."
After exchanging a few words, they left four comrades to keep watch while the rest closed their eyes to rest.
After what happened just now, their drowsiness had been chased away. They didn't feel very sleepy, so they could only close their eyes and pretend to sleep. Having dealt with a group of pickpockets, it didn't mean that the train was completely clean. For the next three hours of the journey, they still had to be on high alert and pay attention to their surroundings.
Most of the passengers who had been disturbed didn't sleep as deeply as before. They closed their eyes for a while and opened them again. Just like that, they stayed awake until they reached the station.
The lights in the hard-seat carriages were lit throughout the night. Only the lights in the sleeper carriages were extinguished. The train continued to rumble forward. As the sky gradually brightened, the number of passengers sitting in the aisles decreased significantly. There were even empty seats in the carriage Ye Chien and the others were in.
The passengers who didn't have seats came over. When they saw that there were empty seats, they happily sat down. After standing for an entire night, there were finally seats for them. Seeing that there were still empty seats, one of the passengers went to take a seat first. The other passenger immediately went back to call the other passengers who didn't have seats over.
"Be quiet. Don't let anyone hear us."
"I know, I know. You guard it well. Don't let anyone else take it."
"I know. Hurry up and call them over. Damn it, after standing for an entire night, my feet are all swollen. "
They spoke softly and complained softly. However, they were still very happy that they had seats for the rest of the journey.
Their appearance did not attract the attention of the male students on duty. Previously, they had noticed that the first few carriages were crowded with passengers, but there were seats in this carriage, and no one was standing in the aisle. There were people alighting, but no one was boarding. As a result, there were five or six empty seats.
A man in his mid-thirties with a crew cut and wearing a thick zippered navy blue jacket carried an old and dirty denim backpack as he passed through the three compartments. He seemed to be looking for an empty seat, looking around as he walked. When he reached the compartment where Ye Chien and the others were in, he seemed to be shocked by the dozen or so students in military uniforms. He immediately retracted his foot that was about to take a step out. Standing at the corridor connecting the two compartments, he hesitated for a moment before carrying the denim backpack over one shoulder and quietly entering the compartment.
He walked past them softly, his gaze faintly sweeping over the students who were leaning against the back of their seats. His footsteps seemed to be lighter, and his expression was more reserved.
The denim backpack hit the back of the seat, and the man was so scared that he quickly stopped and apologized. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Did I hit you?"
Ding Ling, who was in a light sleep when her shoulder was hit, immediately opened her eyes and said to the passenger who apologized to her, "It's okay. You didn't hit me."
"It's good that you didn't hit me. It's good that you didn't hit me. I … I was just looking for an empty seat." The man stuttered a little. He apologized again and carried the backpack instead of carrying it.
The four male students on duty all looked at him until he found an empty seat and placed the denim backpack on it. Only then did the male students withdraw their gazes.
Ding Ling moved her shoulder gently. Although she bumped into it just now, she did not feel any pain. She only felt that even though the backpack was so big, the things inside seemed to be very light. Otherwise, her shoulder would have more or less hurt from the collision.
