In the speeding car, Xu Le looked at Sister Tong, who was in the driver's seat. He couldn't help but look at Jian Shui'er, who was beside him, and said, "Thank you … but how do we get rid of those people?"
The process of leaving the First Military Region's General Hospital was extremely simple. It was so simple that even after Xu Le got into Jian Shui'er's car, he still felt a little confused. Jian Shui'er, who was wearing a light yellow dress, pushed Xu Le's wheelchair out of the quiet entrance of the inpatient department. The Tai family's staff in the hospital were all stunned for a moment. They didn't take any effective measures. To be honest, they probably didn't have the courage to do anything rude to the Federation's idol and the nation's most beautiful girl.
The car drove on the streets of the First Military Region's residential area. The Tai family's bodyguards' car followed behind them. Xu Le felt a little apologetic towards Tai Zhiyuan, but he was more worried about how to get rid of those people. If they kept following him, even if he took a plane back to Linhai, he would still be isolated from the outside world by the Tai family's wall of flesh.
Jian Shui'er had already put on her sunglasses. Most of her eye-catching purple hair was also covered by a cap. Although this teenage idol, who was not yet 18 years old, had to dress up when she went out, the large sunglasses did not give her the image of an iceberg-like celebrity who did not allow people to get close to her. Instead, when she wore them on her small and straight nose, she looked especially cute.
Even now, sitting side by side with Jian Shui'er still made Xu Le feel nervous from the bottom of his heart. He couldn't help but think about how he was able to get to know Jian Shui'er and get Jian Shui'er to help him … but when he saw the cute girl next to him, he realized that Jian Shui'er wasn't even 18 years old yet. The calmness and maturity that she showed before weren't what a young girl should be like.
"Don't worry." The sunglasses covered most of Jian Shui'er's face. Her rosy lips parted slightly. She smiled and said, "When it comes to how to get rid of being followed, I'm the expert in this area."
Obviously, being suddenly involved in Xu Le's escape made this young idol feel a trace of excitement. She was like a runaway girl, excitedly patting Xu Le's shoulder.
Half of Xu Le's body suddenly stiffened. He noticed that Sister Tong, who was driving, had an unpleasant expression on her face. However, he misunderstood the feelings of Jian Shui'er and Sister Tong. He thought that Jian Shui'er claimed to be an expert because she had countless fans in the Federation who often followed her whereabouts, while Sister Tong was unhappy because Jian Shui'er patted her shoulder.
In fact, Elder Sister Tong's expression was because she thought of the time a few years ago when the young miss kept pulling her to escape from the family's surveillance. That was such a headache-inducing memory … but it was also quite interesting.
The corners of Sister Tong's lips curled up into a smile.
…
…
Half an hour later, the car arrived at the largest Fuqiao Airport in the southwest area of Jingzhou. After parking the car in the underground parking lot, the three of them took the elevator and entered the spacious waiting hall. The Tai family bodyguards who had been following them also followed in groups of twos and threes. They stood not too far away from them, nervously and vigilantly watching everything around them.
"According to your request, we booked three tickets. If you don't want people to find out how you're going back to Linhai, you can choose your own route. I don't care about that," Sister Tong said coldly to Xu Le, "I just hope you don't do anything illegal."
Jian Shui'er, who was wearing a cap and a normal jacket in the parking lot, looked like a refreshing teenager. However, the large sunglasses on her small nose made her look a bit out of place. The passengers walking around couldn't help but take a few more glances. Some of them wondered why this teenager gave off such a familiar feeling. However, no one associated this teenager with the National Girl of the Federation. After all, no one would have thought that Jian Shui'er would actually appear in front of them.
Xu Le, who was leaning on a steel cane that retracted automatically, took the tickets with both hands and sincerely expressed his thanks to Sister Tong. Then, he turned around, bowed to Jian Shui'er, and said sincerely, "Miss Jian, I really don't know how to thank you."
"No need to thank me. Helping a cripple escape … is quite fun, isn't it?" Jian Shui'er was like a teenager. She pointed two fingers at the brim of her cap and slightly tilted her head. She was extremely cute and witty. "But I think right now, you're having a headache. How can you get on the plane under the watchful eyes of the Tai family bodyguards … and how can you not let them know your itinerary?"
Xu Le was a bit embarrassed and said, "Yeah."
At this time, the three of them were at the entrance of the VIP passage. There were very few passengers passing through this passage. The Tai family bodyguards at the bookstore and the gangway were particularly obvious.
"There's a phrase called leaving during the chaos." Jian Shui'er looked at Xu Le and said with a smile, "I can create chaos. Whether or not you can leave depends on your ability."
After saying this, Jian Shui'er took off the large sunglasses on her nose and took off her cap at the same time. Just like at home, she casually scratched her messy short purple hair …
…
…
A chaos caused by Jian Shui'er's sudden appearance occurred at Fuqiao Airport without warning. Countless passengers excitedly rushed to the VIP passage. Lights began to flash non-stop, mixed with countless friendly greetings. The Tai family bodyguards were suddenly scattered by the waves of people, and found that they had lost sight of Xu Le.
Xu Le's reaction was very fast. The moment Jian Shui 'er took off her sunglasses, he knew where the chaos she was talking about came from. And when Jian Shui'er's beautiful purple hair bloomed under her cap, he had quietly taken off his jacket under the cover of the surrounding crowd and got on the express boarding vehicle provided by the airport.
Time passed quickly. When he got on the flight to Shangye, the Tai family bodyguards had time to report the disappearance of the target to their superiors.
"If he wants to leave, it shouldn't be easy to stop him. Plus, that lady is helping him." Tai Zhiyuan sighed softly and said to Butler Jin, "Inform Blackhawk Security Company that there's a mission in Linhai."
…
…
Xu Le didn't fly directly to Linhai, because if he did, he might be surrounded by the Tai family bodyguards again as soon as he got off the plane. Naturally, there would be no way to contact Shi Qinghai. He chose to fly to Shangye. Shangye was relatively close to Linhai, and it was also a relatively inconspicuous place.
Sister Tong booked the economy class for him, but he didn't care, because he was never rich. The problem was that he was still a patient, and his right leg was like a white cement stick … Sitting in the economy class seat was indeed a bit uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the air stewardess on this flight was very kind and gave him a free upgrade. Thus, Xu Le thanked her repeatedly.
"I heard that you can make phone calls on flights now?" Xu Le looked at the flight attendant squatting next to him and asked curiously.
"Yes, sir. It's directly transferred through satellite. The cost is the same as normal calls, and you need to pay with a credit card," the flight attendant said sweetly.
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Le said very embarrassedly, "… I was in a hurry to go back to Shangye, and I forgot to inform my friends at the airport about the arrival time of the flight. As you can see, there's something wrong with my leg. If no one picks me up, it will be a bit inconvenient … But I also forgot to take my phone."
The flight attendant was slightly stunned. She smiled and said, "Do you want to borrow my phone?"
"Yes, I'm really sorry for the trouble." The coat Xu Le was wearing today was a coat provided by the hospital's Tai family staff. She couldn't tell what brand it was, but the material was good. Coupled with his sincere expression and thick eyebrows, he looked very refreshing.
The flight attendant smiled slightly, thinking that this young man was really shy and cute.
While thanking her profusely, Xu Le took her phone and searched for the unknown number that Shi Qinghai was using. After thinking for a moment, he sent a short message, "I'm in the horse stance. I'll arrive at 9: 00 tomorrow. Contact me, I have a plan."
…
…
It had been more than a month, but it felt like a lifetime ago. During this time, Xu Le had almost died once. Another big problem appeared in his mind. After returning from the south to Linhai, from the warm ocean climate to the harsh wind and snow environment, Xu Le didn't think too much about his body and his brain. He just squinted his eyes, leaned on his metal crutches, and walked out of Shangye's airport. He got into a taxi.
The car ride was silent. Xu Le returned to the university town of Linhai, which he was familiar with. He was extremely cautious and didn't contact anyone, especially Zhang Xiaomeng. It was impossible for him to go back to school. Instead, he went to the coffee shop on Famous Store Street alone. He asked for a cup of coffee and silently looked at the snow outside the window. He stared at the phone with a metallic luster on the green tablecloth.
When he arrived at the coffee shop, he bought a few brand-new SIM cards from the small shops that could be seen everywhere in the university town. At the same time, he sent a message to the number that Shi Qinghai was using.
All that was left was to wait.
The phone lay quietly on the tablecloth. Xu Le stared at it silently, tightly holding the automatically retractable steel crutches in his hand. Gradually, his eyes moved to the alloy bracelet on his wrist. Just like what he said to Miss Jian Shui'er before leaving the hospital, he firmly believed that after he found Shi Qinghai, he would be able to help him escape from the Federation's arrest warrant.
At this moment, the phone rang. Shi Qinghai's calm voice came from the other end. Shi Qinghai told him a house number.
On the phone, Shi Qinghai wasn't so moved that he was speechless for a long time, nor did he angrily accuse him of being stupid. He just said a few words calmly. This was because he and Xu Le were the same kind of people. When they knew that the other was in trouble, they would do anything to help. Since the other had come for him, there was no point in saying more.
Xu Le paid the bill and left. With some difficulty, he supported himself with the steel crutches. In the wind and snow of Linhai, he walked toward the streets deep in the city.
