Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 1247 Not Wanting to Say Another Word

Upon hearing this, the man thought for a moment and said:

"Why don't you work a little longer, brother? We still need to go back and report the situation."

Seeing that he couldn't get rid of this hot potato, Wang An nodded with a smile and said:

"Sure, we don't have anything else to do, so we'll just stay here and watch for a while."

After Wang An finished speaking, just as the two were about to return to their cubicle, Wang An's eyes narrowed as he looked down into the corridor. He then dashed forward, shouting loudly:

"You stand right there, or I'll shoot."

The reason Wang An pulled this stunt was because the lame repairman whom Wang An had always felt was problematic had appeared.

At this moment, the repairman was walking with his back slightly bent and his hat brim pulled low, clearly not wanting to attract attention. But Wang An had been thinking about him for a long time. Even if he had to bury his head in his neck, Wang An would still have to figure out what was going on with him.

Most importantly, the repairman is no longer lame.

Wang An's shouts immediately caught the attention of the two men next to him. Seeing that the repairman was about to pass their cubicle, the two men panicked and shouted along with Wang An:

"Stop."

Wang An shouted and saw that the man was still walking and trying to squeeze into the cubicle where the two men were. Just as the man had stepped into the cubicle, Wang An's gun fired again.

To be honest, Wang An really didn't want to fire that shot, but knowing who was in the cubicle, if something happened to the person inside because Wang An didn't fire, then Wang An would be in big trouble.

At that point, even if Zhang Shuya and Wu Dong personally intervened, they probably wouldn't be able to save Wang An's life, let alone Zhang Siyuan and the others.

The main point is that some things, whether right or wrong, don't really matter.

As soon as Wang An fired his gun, the two men in Zhongshan suits also pulled their triggers. However, these two gunshots really scared Wang An.

Because the two men in Zhongshan suits fired from behind Wang An, Wang An felt as if the two bullets grazed his ears. If there had been even the slightest deviation, Wang An's head would have exploded, and he would have met his maker in an instant.

Wang An's shot was aimed at the repairman's right arm, the one holding the gun, because while he could injure someone, he really didn't want to kill him.

The two men in Zhongshan suits each fired a shot aimed at the repairman's head.

To be fair, Wang An and the other two were all crack shots, as each of their bullets hit the exact spot they wanted to hit.

So, the repairman's head exploded like a smashed watermelon, and the scene was incredibly bloody.

Since the person was already dead, Wang An didn't want to get too close, since the person in the cubicle also didn't want to be seen by more people.

So Wang An stopped and turned to the two men, saying:
"Brothers, it doesn't seem very convenient for me to go over there, so I won't go."

Turning his head, Wang An pointed to the kid he had given three bullets to, and said:
"I'll go keep an eye on that one, just in case anything else goes wrong."

The two nodded without saying a word, letting Wang An turn and leave. After a while, Cheng Jing and a large group of people finally arrived. It was clear that Cheng Jing and the others didn't know who the person in that cubicle was, nor did they know how important that person was.

The group split into two groups. One group stopped at Wang An's place, while the other group headed towards the place where the men in Zhongshan suits were.

Next, it was Wang An and his group's turn to cooperate. However, after Wang An and his two companions took out their identification and letters of introduction, the group not only did not make things difficult for them, but also became very polite, only asking about the course of events before letting it go.

To be honest, the documents and letters of introduction that Zhang Shuya prepared for Wang An and the other two were practically like travel permits from Journey to the West, or like talismans, making them incredibly useful when traveling.

And so, the body and the cripple who had been knocked unconscious were taken over by the railway worker, and the matter was temporarily put to rest. Wang An and the other two returned to their cubicles.

What Wang An didn't know was that in the cubicle where the man in the Zhongshan suit was, the two men from before had already reported everything that had just happened to an old man.

After listening with a slightly worried expression, the old man smiled and said:

"So, if he hadn't figured out that the repairman was up to something, my safety would have been a bit in danger, hahaha."

It has to be said that this old man has a really good mentality. The main thing is that his aura of not changing color even when Mount Tai is pressing down is something that ordinary people can't do.

The most striking impression this old man gives is that nothing is a problem for him; he can handle anything with ease.

After the old man finished speaking, one of the men in the Zhongshan suit looked at the person standing behind the old man and said:

"With Third Brother here, your safety is not a problem."

The old man laughed heartily, then suddenly said:

"This young comrade named Wang An is quite good; we need more people like him."

After Wang An and the other two returned to their cubicle, the middle-aged woman and the young woman climbed down from the upper bunk and asked them curiously what was going on outside.

It was as if the slap Wang Li gave that old woman had never happened.

While Wang An and his two companions gained some understanding from their interactions with railway workers, their actual knowledge was not extensive.

The main issue is that the person Wang An crippled is the only survivor so far, and the railway safety authorities haven't yet fully investigated the matter.

Therefore, Wang An simply brushed off a few questions and then ignored the two gossipy and annoying women.

As time passed, it was soon time for dinner. For this meal, Wang Li didn't bother to buy boxed lunches. Instead, he, Wang An, and the other two ate flatbread, steamed buns, and pancakes. The side dish was pickled vegetables.

But the happiest thing was that before getting on the bus, Sun Nian bought a few bottles of wine for the three of them. So after the meal, the three of them had a nice drink with peanuts and broad beans. They shared two bottles of baijiu and each of them drank more than 6 liang (2ml) of wine. It was so comfortable!

However, from beginning to end, Wang An and his two companions never invited the two women, one big and one small, who were also in the cubicle.

There was nothing Wang An could do; he now felt a strong aversion to that old woman and didn't want to say another word to her.
