Volume 1 Clone Army Chapter 75 Old Driver
"Is it done now?" Li Jiu said in disbelief as he looked at the beautiful robot's fair palm.
"Yes, sir, you have paid. Do you need other products? Here, you can buy almost all electrical products in the alliance." After a moment, the beautiful robot said to Li Jiu with a smile.
"Haha, thank you. I don't need anything else for now." Li Jiu held the bag and shook his head with a smile, "But I guess I'll come back in the future."
"Well, you are always welcome to come to our store. At the same time, you can remember my number, 0815. Next time you come, you can just come to me directly." The robot beauty bowed politely and said.
"Well, okay, goodbye." Li Jiu nodded and walked out.
"Goodbye, sir, take care." The beautiful robot bowed again and said.
…
When Li Jiu walked out of Lei Ting Electrical Appliance Store, he looked at the hustle and bustle of Xinghai Street and raised his head to look at the sun hidden in the gap between the Skylon Tower.
It was getting late, and Li Jiu felt that he had seen almost everything he needed to see today, and there was nothing else to do to stay here. In addition, Li Jiu was craving for cigarettes again, but smoking was prohibited on the street, so it was better to go home early.
So he planned to return to the Night Rose Mercenary Group base.
Standing by the street, Li Jiu watched the traffic on the road to see if there were any taxis passing by.
After a while, he saw a slightly old blue hovercraft slowly approaching. It was a canopy-covered hovercraft with the word "Taxi" written on the roof and an idle indicator light on the front windshield.
Li Jiu hurriedly picked up the bag and waved to the car.
"Whoosh!" With a slight air flow, the old blue car stopped steadily in front of Liu and opened the door automatically.
Li Jiu took the opportunity to glance at the driver in the driving seat, only to see that he was an old driver who looked to be over 50 years old, with a crew cut, a beard, and gray hair and beard. However, there was not a single wrinkle on his bronze skin, and his facial features were delicate and handsome. At first glance, he looked like a handsome young man in his twenties, but in his pair of deep eyes one could see a sense of depth and experience.
Li Jiu was a little surprised that an old man like him was still driving a taxi.
However, this was just a thought that flashed through his mind, and without much hesitation, he quickly sat in the back seat.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Li Jiu entered, he immediately smelled a strong smell of smoke, which choked him so much that he could hardly open his eyes.
"Oh my god, this uncle is also a heavy smoker..." Li Jiu subconsciously frowned slightly and muttered to himself.
Then, he glanced at the old driver in front of him, only to see that the old man had a burning cigarette in his hand and was smoking it hard. He didn't even have the intention of greeting Li Jiu.
Seeing this scene, Li Jiu frowned and felt a little unhappy. The service attitude of this old driver seemed a little too unsatisfactory, right?
"Uncle, can you turn on the ventilation device in the car?" Li Jiu said with a frown.
Although he is also a smoker, he is just a small smoker and his smoking habit is not as strong as that of the old driver. The strong smell of second-hand smoke in the car is really unbearable for him.
"Okay." The old driver said indifferently, his voice sounded a little hoarse, but very steady. At the same time, he pressed a button.
"Woo woo!" Suddenly, gusts of air passed through the car, and the thick smell of smoke dissipated a lot.
After turning on the ventilation device, the old driver still did not greet Li Jiu, but continued to smoke by himself. It seemed that he did not regard Li Jiu as a customer, but as dispensable air, and his attitude seemed very indifferent.
"Go to the Night Rose Mercenary Group base in the eastern suburbs." Li Jiu felt a little unhappy, so he didn't bother to say any more nonsense to the old driver and directly told him the destination.
"Okay." The old driver was very frugal with words. He would never use a second word to express his meaning...
“Woo!”
With a sound of breaking air, the blue hovercraft joined the traffic on the street and drove towards the suburbs...
…
Not long after, the blue taxi left Xinghai Street and drove on the suburban highway.
At this time, Li Jiu was sitting in the back seat, feeling tormented.
He wanted to smoke a cigarette, but he didn't have any on him because he left the War Bar in a hurry and left the pack of cigarettes he bought in the morning in the private room.
In addition, the old driver in front of him was smoking one cigarette after another. Although the ventilation system was turned on in the car, Li Jiu could still smell the tempting smell of second- hand smoke floating in the air...
This made him feel itchy like a cat scratching.
He really wanted to follow the experienced driver in front of him and get a few strokes just to deal with the emergency.
However, considering the uncle's cold attitude, Li Jiu couldn't help but hesitate. What if he opened his mouth and the other party ignored him, wouldn't that be too embarrassing?
"Gu..." Li Jiu swallowed and looked towards the front of the car involuntarily.
The old driver was seen smoking a cigarette while looking at the car without any regard for Li Jiu's feelings.
When Li Jiu saw four or five unopened packs of cigarettes scattered in the corner in front of the car, his eyes suddenly lit up, and at the same time he was a little stunned.
Sabre brand cigarettes? They were the kind that cost ten yuan a pack, exactly the same as what Li Jiu smoked...
Li Jiu thought about it and wondered why not buy a pack from the veteran driver to deal with the emergency first?
Even if this uncle doesn't like me, I can just pay him a little more. Am I afraid he won't sell it? After all, seeing how old he is, he still drives a sports car. I guess he wants to make more money to support his family. He shouldn't be against money, right?
"Ahem... Uncle, um... Can you sell me a pack of your cigarettes?" Li Jiu asked with a bit of embarrassment.
"No." Who would have thought that the old driver would refuse without even thinking about it... What's even more infuriating is that while he was talking, he actually took a puff of his own...
Li Jiu's face flushed immediately, and he felt a little angry in his heart. This is too disrespectful, isn't it? We are both smokers, why are we so anxious to fight each other? !
However, what happened next left Li Jiu dumbfounded.
"Young man, if you want to smoke, just take it. Don't talk about whether to buy it or not. I have money." The old driver said, then he took out a pack of cigarettes and turned to give it to Li Jiudi.
But who would have thought that when this old driver saw Li Jiu's stunned expression, his whole body suddenly shook and he also showed a stunned expression!
At the same time, it seemed that he was too excited. His hand holding the cigarette began to tremble uncontrollably, and the cigarette in his hand fell down...
