The First Gospel Chapter 66 Heavy Rain
"You didn't rush back in the rain, did you?"
As soon as An Ling opened the door, she saw Gu Yun, who was soaked to the skin. The bag in his hand was soaked. "Hey, it's raining so hard, why don't you take shelter in the supermarket? Be careful not to catch a cold. Go take a shower first."
She and Gu Yun took a look at the weather forecast when they went to the Magic Corner. Now they could only be thankful that they had returned because of the emergency, otherwise they would have been stuck in Hogwarts in the middle of the night.
"No need, do you have an umbrella? I'll go pick up Gu Tiantian."
Although he is in such a strong condition that he won't be affected by the weather at all, his sister is relatively weak and young, and cannot withstand the wind and sun.
What's more, people often say that roads are slippery on rainy days, so it would be troublesome if you encountered a driver driving on the sidewalk on the way back.
"Then be careful on the road."
An Ling handed over a black long-handled umbrella and gave instructions.
She always felt that this sudden rainstorm was a bit strange. The windows of her house were completely blocked by water. The rain was so heavy that it seemed like someone was using a water pipe to wash the glass of her house.
It has been a long time since X City has had such heavy rain. It is indeed a little unsafe for Gu Tiantian to come back alone.
…
18:30, evening.
The get out of class ended nearly an hour later than usual because of the sudden suspension of classes. Several teachers had to temporarily arrange learning tasks during the suspension.
There was no announcement of the reason for the suspension of classes, nor was there any specific time mentioned. Gu Tiantian only knew that a group of people in suits marched into the school during the day, and she was called in to answer some questions.
Most of the questions were about her brother and Wang Lu. She pretended to be ignorant of all the questions.
What's even more strange is that Teacher Wu, who has always been serious and responsible towards his students, did not come to school today for the first time.
From the moment he opened his eyes in the morning, Gu Tiantian felt that something was strange around him.
The sudden rainstorm made Gu Tiantian shiver. She hugged her shoulders and shrank back. At the same time, she was secretly observing a suspicious man wearing a knitted hat and a pair of black sunglasses not far ahead. The man got into the car behind her, along with a kind-looking woman with long wavy hair.
The two pretended not to know each other. One sat three rows in front of Gu Tiantian, and the woman sat behind her. The bus to Sister An Ling's house was very unpopular. Apart from the driver and the three of them, the only person left was an old lady in the back row who was dozing against the window.
Gu Tiantian keenly observed that there was frequent eye contact between the two.
These two...
Could it be a human trafficker?
Gu Tiantian has read a lot of news about human traffickers. It is said that these people often target girls who are alone, kidnap them and sell them to others at high prices.
But at this critical moment, her brother's cell phone exploded. Doesn't that mean she will have to deal with it alone?
Gu Tiantian suddenly felt a little regretful. If she had known that she would encounter such bad luck, she should have listened to her brother and done some physical training. She was confident in her explosive power, but if the situation turned into a long-distance race, the disadvantage of insufficient endurance would be revealed. She had only trained for 800 meters recently. If the route was extended to 1000 meters or even 2000 meters, she was not sure that she could outrun two adults.
Therefore, we must take them by surprise and kill them without warning!
Gu Tiantian curled up his body and secretly estimated the distance from here to the back door.
Time passed by minute by minute, and she kept taking deep breaths to adjust herself to the best condition.
Yes, don’t think about the human traffickers, just treat this as an 800-meter test!
After an unknown amount of time, the station announcement sounded.
"Driver, I want to get off!"
As he opened his mouth, Gu Tiantian suddenly stood up and rushed towards the back door.
However, the woman in the back seat reacted faster than she expected . They both stood up from their seats almost at the same time. Hearing the noise behind them, the suspicious man in the knitted hat also stood up immediately.
This coincidental action confirmed Gu Tiantian's previous guess—these two strangers were coming for her.
"Little girl..."
The woman tried to block him, but Gu Tiantian suddenly exerted force and knocked her back into her seat.
Maybe she didn't expect Gu Tiantian to be so strong. When the woman was knocked back to her position, she stood there motionless. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Gu Tiantian ran out of the car.
For a moment, the sound of rain and the sound of the bus leaving the station mixed together. Gu Tiantian rushed out a few steps in the heavy rain, but found that the two people did not get off the bus to chase him.
Have you given up?
However, the woman just now obviously wanted to stop her.
For a moment, Gu Tiantian felt that she had an illusion - the moment she rushed off the bus, a figure was reflected on the bus window.
In the mirror, in addition to the three of them, there seemed to be a high school student about her age sitting next to the woman.
And at the critical moment, the other party seemed to hug the strange woman from behind.
"call--"
She must have been too nervous, and the bus was filled with mist, which caused her to see it wrong.
Well, it's all an illusion.
At least, we were freed from the human traffickers.
Almost at the same time as this thought came to her mind, Gu Tiantian's whole body froze. Her elbow suddenly sank downward, and her skin felt extremely rough, like the feeling of rubbing against dry tree bark.
Her right elbow was held by a skinny hand, and the dry arm made her unable to move.
Gu Tiantian thought that she was different from her brother. She had a very clear understanding of her own abilities. She knew that she was very strong, even as strong as most adult men. But the person holding her hand now was an old lady who was half a head shorter than her.
The old lady had a hunched back, and the wrinkles on her face squeezed her eyes into slits. She was bent over, holding a mahogany cane in her other hand, standing there swaying, looking as if a gust of cold wind would blow her down.
This old lady...
It was the passenger who dozed off in the back row when she got on the bus, and she didn't even see him get off the bus.
"Little girl, where are you going in such a hurry?"
"I just want to go home..."
"It's raining so hard outside. Do you have an umbrella? Come with me. My mother-in-law's house is nearby."
Neither of them brought an umbrella, and in just a dozen seconds, the heavy rain soaked their clothes.
Gu Tiantian felt that the other party's tone did not sound like an invitation, but an order to her.
"No, my brother is still waiting for me."
"When you get to my house, I can help you contact him."
"No."
"Children should be obedient and not willful."
The force of the elbow became stronger.
what to do!
Gu Tiantian was extremely anxious. Her intuition told her that the place the old woman invited her to was definitely not a good place.
I don't want to go, but I can't get away.
or……
"Give up your idea." The old woman seemed to have seen through her thoughts, and her voice became more severe, "Unless you want to see my stern side."
At this moment, Gu Tiantian was certain that this old woman was most likely the leader of the human trafficking group, and the two people in the car were just her minions.
"I do not want to go!"
Gu Tiantian pulled his arms hard, but they didn't move at all.
"You are such a disobedient child. It seems necessary to punish you a little."
As she spoke, the old woman slowly raised her cane.
elder brother!
I was wrong!
I should have listened to you and exercised well!
As the cane swung down, Gu Tiantian's heart was suddenly filled with regret.
Facing the swinging cane, she subconsciously closed her eyes.
An unknown amount of time had passed, but the expected pain did not come. Her ears were still filled with the sound of the dripping rain, but the cold rain did not fall on her again.
Gu Tiantian narrowed his eyes curiously, but saw a figure blocking his way.
The figure held an umbrella for her with his left hand and caught the mahogany cane that was coming back towards her with his right hand.
this moment.
The heavy rain around seemed to stop suddenly.
