Survival on a Bus: School Beauty Sisters Beg for a Place to Stay

"My God, what was that monster just now?"

They sped along at breakneck speed, flooring the accelerator the entire way, and after several close calls, Lin Mo and his companion finally managed to shake off the relentlessly pursuing giant soft monster.

Although they escaped, the bus is now out of service and has broken down.

The engine is seizing cylinders and smoking; it seems beyond repair.

Lin Mo's heart sank. He had no interest in acknowledging Pu Mengnan's lingering doubts and instead immediately checked the countdown timer for the distance between the fog and their current location.

Two hours and forty-six minutes.

But what time is the daily settlement period?

Lin Mo didn't know.

All he knew was that if the car wasn't repaired and they didn't encounter another bus before the fog caught up, then he and Pu Mengnan would have no choice but to wait to be sacrificed on the spot.

What should I do?

Are we supposed to run on foot to increase the distance between ourselves and the fog?

It's important to know that the fog travels at approximately 30 kilometers per hour, so relying on two legs is clearly impractical and impossible.

"Lin Mo, is the car really broken? Can't it be fixed?"

Seeing Lin Mo's grim expression, Pu Mengnan realized the seriousness of the situation. Seeing that she couldn't help, she could only offer words of comfort:

"Don't worry, I believe there's always a way. We managed to fight our way out, which means we're not destined to die. Maybe we'll run into another car soon..."

is it?

Lin Mo was not as optimistic as Pu Mengnan.

But he also knew he couldn't just sit there and wait to die. There were still more than two hours left, so he had to try something.

"The fan is broken, and the coolant is gone; we can't just add water..."

At this point, Lin Mo's eyes suddenly lit up, and he turned around and gave Pu Mengnan a big bear hug.

"How could I forget all the supplies we emptied from the convenience store in my haste? The engine seized up because that giant earthworm smashed the rear of the car when it attacked us, causing the coolant reservoir to break and leak, leading to overheating and boiling over. As long as we repair the damage, we can temporarily use bottled water even without replacement coolant. Even if we keep stopping and starting, as long as we maintain a safe distance from the fog and wait until the highway currency settlement time, we'll have enough money to fix the car, hahaha..."

If the previous second was filled with confusion and despair, then the next second Lin Mo saw hope for survival. Without waiting for Pu Mengnan to respond, he released the soft, fragrant beauty in his arms and scurried back to the car to search for anything he could use.

"..."

What coolant, what boiling, what cylinder scoring?

Pu Mengnan couldn't understand.

But she knew Lin Mo had come up with a way to save himself, and a very feasible one at that. Although she was happy, she still unconsciously raised her hand to rub her burning hot cheeks...

Although they almost lost their lives because of their greed, they managed to escape from a desperate situation. Their lives were not meant to end there. Lin Mo not only found the duct tape, but also discovered a box of antifreeze that had been mistaken for bottled water and loaded onto the car.

After another hour of struggling, Lin Mo finally managed to start the engine and continue driving the bus. After some testing, although the engine was damaged, it was sturdy and the power loss was not significant. It could probably last for a few more days under high intensity without any problems.

They drove on like this until dark. After checking that the fog had been there for more than eight hours, and that they had plenty of time to get some sleep, Lin Mo pulled over and prepared to rest.

Actually, there was a gas station not far ahead, but based on his previous experience, Lin Mo had already figured out the pattern. There were only two possibilities: either there were zombies and mutated creatures in the gas station, or it was like the situation they encountered today, seemingly safe but actually a trap set by monsters. In any case, no matter which possibility it was, they had to act quickly to collect supplies in the future.

"Are you tired? Let me give you a massage."

When Pu Mengnan saw Lin Mo pounding his shoulders, she knew that his shoulders must be very sore. Without waiting for Lin Mo's reply, she put her hands on his shoulders and began to massage them vigorously with her knuckles.

"Thanks......"

After driving all day and experiencing life and death, Lin Mo was indeed exhausted. He let Pu Mengnan help him relax, and whether it was because he felt comfortable or because he was really too tired, he closed his eyes and fell asleep without realizing it.

Snap snap snap~~~

Lin Mo was startled awake by a loud banging on the door.

Then they saw Pu Mengnan gripping a gun in both hands, staring nervously at the burly man banging on the door.

"Didn't you hear me, you bitch, telling you to open the door? You think I won't smash this window?"

Pu Mengnan, however, ignored his words and remained in a firing stance, coldly saying:

"I told you, you have to answer questions before you can come in. If you continue to be so unreasonable and domineering, don't blame me for shooting you without hesitation."

"Go ahead and drive, come on, aim at this, you bitch, if you have the guts, kill me."

The burly man clearly didn't take Pu Mengnan, a woman, seriously. It wasn't until he saw Lin Mo get up, appear beside Pu Mengnan with a flashlight, and take the gun from her and aim it at him that the burly man became more restrained.

Even so, he still stuck his neck out, looking like he wasn't afraid at all.

"Hey bro, which one of you is the conductor? I'm a passenger, open the door and let me on."

"Shut up if you want to get on the bus. I'm telling you, listen to me."

As Lin Mo spoke, he checked the time. There were still ten minutes until midnight. Thinking that he hadn't received the settlement notification yet, he figured he would have to wait until the early hours of the morning. At the same time, he prayed in his heart that this bastard was a real passenger. Once he got the settlement reward, he could kill someone.

That's right.

Lin Mo would never allow such an arrogant person to get into his car.

Even if the passengers can't harm the driver, this arrogant and unruly troublemaker is still a rotten apple. Keeping him around to earn some highway tolls for a while is fine, but keeping him around in the long run is just a menace. It's better to exchange him for some quick money.

Of course, this is all predicated on the bastard cooperating.

If he refuses to cooperate, Lin Mo wouldn't mind giving him a bullet.

"I'm sure she's already told you why she's checking you. Nobody's joking with you. If you want to get on the bus today, you have to cooperate. Otherwise, I'd rather kill the innocent than risk letting someone of unknown identity on board. Do you understand?"

"Hmph~~~"

Although the burly man still had that arrogant and defiant look, he was no longer as domineering as he had been towards Pu Mengnan before, which could be considered as him agreeing to cooperate.

"Approach the car door, open your mouth, I need to check."

This is the second method for detecting fake passengers that I heard on the radio today. This time, it was said that a professor discovered it, and that even fake people and strange things cannot completely hide the shape of the teeth, so it is highly credible.

"..."

Although the burly man frowned and his eyes were practically bulging with anger, he ultimately chose to compromise when he saw the dark muzzle of the gun. Reluctantly, he walked to the door and opened his mouth for Lin Mo to inspect.

Well, it's just a mouthful of yellowed, smoky teeth, nothing special.

"Bend your arms, open your palms, backs of your hands facing me, yes, just like that, don't move..."

There are no problems with my skin.

"Now answer me a question: do you know what abs are?"
