Chapter 7 third chapter

The truck departing from the back door of Yanglanzhuang, changed its route in a hurry in the area full of villas and houses.Liu Ping paid attention to the box-shaped bench on the cargo bed and followed behind.When there was no more building in sight, the truck came to the two-way single-lane road. This is the coastal county road leading to the east.The coast is on the right, and the cliff is on the left. There is no decent fork in the road. It is called Shirahama Coastal Road.Go straight along this road, and you will enter the urban area of ​​Kuzuigawa. Since it was very late, there were almost no other cars on the coast road, and there should be almost no traffic lights.In this case, it shouldn't matter if you step on the accelerator a little more boldly, but the truck is driving slowly on the coastal road at the legal speed limit, or even lower than the legal limit.According to the speedometer of the leveling locomotive, the distance is about forty kilometers.This is an ideal tracking speed, but it is too slow, and even an accidental overtaking will happen.

"That's right, there are people in the cargo bucket, so you can't drive too fast. In this way, you can easily complete the task." The box-shaped bench on the cargo bucket, the small back of the chair faces the leveling side, in other words, it faces the driving direction, and it is originally a bench, which looks like a row of temporary rear seats in the cargo bucket.Of course no one was sitting on the bench, but there was a person hiding in the bench.Leveling hold sure to continue tracking. There is no fork in the county road, so before entering the urban area, there is no need to worry about losing the truck in front of you, and it should be okay to drive away.Liu Ping deliberately slowed down so much.The distance between the locomotive and the truck was about 50 meters, and Liu Ping paid attention to maintaining this distance to track the truck.When turning, the distance between the two sides was once opened, but it will not cause too much problem.From the current point of view, this tracking trip is easier than imagined, but it makes Liuping uneasy.

"Wait a minute...won't it be..." Liuping inadvertently imagines wonderful things.There should be someone in the box bench.The man, whose true identity is not yet known, may have jumped from the bed of a moving truck.For example, when turning sharply, the truck will temporarily leave the line of sight.Although it was only a few seconds, no one monitored the cargo tank during this time.The person hiding in the box may take the opportunity to rush out of the box and rush to the side of the road in spite of everything... "Hey, it's impossible. After all, the current speed is forty kilometers per hour..."

Even if forty kilometers is slow for a car, it is still fast for a human being.Jumping at this speed, if you are lucky, you will only be seriously injured, if you are unlucky, you will go straight to the west, which will cause commotion instead, and it will be counterproductive to those who want to hide the affair.The people in the box are not too stupid to understand such things. "In short, just don't lose the car..." Liuping thought so, focusing on following the truck ahead. The truck travels this seven-kilometer coastal road in about ten minutes. The speed is 700 meters per minute, and the speed is 60 times the speed per hour.No, it's six seven forty-two, um, so the speed is forty-two kilometers per hour.Or roughly take it as a speed of 40 kilometers per hour.

After the truck on the coastal road, enter the urban area of ​​Kuzuigawa.Traffic immediately increased.Having said that, it's late at night so it won't be hard to keep track.But in urban areas, you can't maintain a long distance between cars like on coastal roads. If you are too leisurely, you don't know when the other party will take which alley to escape.Liuping accelerated slowly, shortening the distance between the locomotive and the truck. At this time, a traffic light appeared in the distance of the truck in front, which was the first intersection to enter the urban area.

The light signal was green, but it suddenly turned yellow in front of Liuping.The truck in front, as if taking the light signal as a signal, accelerated in one go.Liuping felt something was wrong.Using red lights or level crossing fences to get rid of the follower is a common method for fugitives. The truck probably wants to go straight through the intersection and get rid of the follower here.Damn it, don't even think about it!Leveling open the accelerator to the maximum, and by the way, open the delusion to the maximum. "Evil secret association, don't even think about escaping!"

Liuhei turned into Fujioka Hiroshi who was chasing Shuka, and leaned forward extremely on the motorcycle. This is the posture that elementary school students often imitated when riding bicycles in the past.This posture, which reduces the wind resistance to the limit, often leads to accidents caused by not paying attention to the front, but the reformer Tomura Ryuhei, who is engrossed in chasing the villain, turns a blind eye to this danger.He let the 125cc Tornado run at full speed, and swooped in from the back of the fleeing truck. However, the truck trying to escape desperately ignored the red light and quickly crossed the intersection... Just as I thought about it, the truck stopped in front of the stop line with the screech of brakes. "Huh?" Liuping let out a cry of astonishment and despair. "No way, ah, ah, ah!"

Even if Liuping braked suddenly, it didn't help. The locomotive slammed into the rear of the truck in the next moment.The world in his eyes was spinning, the whole person flew up into the sky, landed on his stomach, and suffered a heavy blow to the head wearing a hard hat.Pain, fear, excitement and tension make the leveling temporarily immobile. "..." In short, he barely knew that he was not dead, but he didn't know where he was.Not dirt, not tarmac, this tactile feeling is iron—a flat space made of iron plates.In other words, is it a truck body?It should be right.The locomotive hit the rear of the truck, and I didn't know whether it was luck or misfortune that I flew into the sky, and landed on the bed of the truck.Such a thing is not impossible.But it sounds embarrassing for the follower to fall into the back of the opponent's truck.When Ukai heard this, he should be branded a "failure detective".

Leveling, still unable to move, heard the opening and closing of the driver's door, and then a strange voice came from above. "Mom, it's terrible, look at this guy... actually died..." "Oh, oh, it's really horrible... died..." Judging from the dialogue, the two are mother and son, and they must be the duo in overalls carrying the box-shaped bench.The two were inspecting the cargo box and found the leveled "corpse". Hey, hey, wait a minute... Liuping yelled in his heart.He did fall badly, but he didn't die at all.What's more, they didn't confirm the pulse and breathing, so they shouldn't conclude that Liu Ping is dead, and they shouldn't make a conclusion without authorization.

Liuping slowly got up as if protesting.When I looked up, I saw a duo in overalls watching from the edge of the cargo bed.Now I can't escape and I can't hide.With the idea of ​​accepting his fate, Liuping took off his full-face helmet in front of the two of them, and let out a big breath. Immediately, the mother and son uttered words of fear or astonishment. "Mom, this, this, this guy is alive!" The young men have a casual appearance with dyed brown hair and earrings.He pointed at Liuping tremblingly, his slender face like a yam twisted in fright. "This, this, how is this possible, I can't believe such absurd things!"

My mother's hair had been permed and was more blonde than brown.Listening to what men call her, you can know that she is the man's mother, but if you don't know it, you may mistake her for a girlfriend who is ten years older.The woman wiped off the sweat from her forehead with a towel hanging around her neck, and looked at her flat face frequently. "Are you really okay?" "Oh... Anyway, it's okay." The puzzled leveling responds vaguely.However, something always feels wrong.The two didn't blame Liuping for hitting the truck, and didn't take care of the injured Liuping, they just couldn't hide their surprise at the fact that he was still alive.what happened?When Liuping didn't know what to do, the young man with brown hair and earrings asked in a trembling voice. "You, you bleed so much, why don't you change your face... Generally speaking, you must have died long ago..." "……Blood?" Liuping thought something was wrong, and looked to his right hand again.A strange liquid wets the palms.He raised his hand to look under the street lamp at the intersection, and the palm of his hand was dyed bright red, like the red of blood... It should be said that this is real blood. "... Alas!" Liuping got up in a panic, and checked the condition of the cargo bucket. "This, this is!" There was a sea of ​​blood on the cargo bucket.A large amount of red liquid filled the cargo hopper.The scene was too horrifying, and Liu Ping was out of control. For a moment, he thought it was his own blood, but of course it couldn't be.Probably because the falling posture was good, and Liuping didn't have any injuries that could be called injuries. "No! It's not my blood!" "Since it's not your blood, whose blood is it?" The brown-haired youth's question brought Liuping back to his senses.So, isn't there another person on the cargo bed?Liuping looked at the box-shaped bench behind the cargo bed.The bottom of the bench has a particularly high amount of health.Liuping walked towards the bench and observed it up close for the first time. The bench itself is a slender box of 50 centimeters in height and 50 centimeters in width, and a meter in length. A 30 centimeter low back is added on top of it. It really looks like a bench.Liu Ping stretched out his hand towards the chair, and it could be opened just like the door. "What's in this box-shaped bench? Could it be a person..." The brown-haired youth and the blonde mother, the mother and child of the truck, groaned in embarrassment, and then jumped onto the cargo bed at the same time.The blond-haired mother pushed Liuping away and grabbed the chair. The fifty-centimeter-wide and one-meter-long chair opened like a door, opening to a ninety-degree angle for leaning on the back of the chair.A hole appeared before everyone's eyes. "Woo..." The three people in the field moaned softly at the same time. As expected, the box contained a person.The hair is black, the face is sideways, and it is a man of short stature who is wearing a suit.The man tried his best to shrink his body, and it fit neatly into the narrow space of the box-shaped bench. For the sake of caution, Liuhe reached out to touch the man's neck to confirm the pulse, but he immediately dismissed the idea.The man had a wound on his neck that looked like a knife wound, and he died from the severed carotid artery.A large amount of blood leaked out of the bottom of the box, turning the cargo bucket of the truck into a sea of ​​blood. Liuping looked up from the corpse in the box, and looked at the mother and son who were stunned on the cargo bucket.The tense expressions of the two showed that Liu Ping was shocked from the bottom of his heart. If it was his acting skills, he was really superb.Anyway, Liuping asked the two people in front of him. "Who is this person?" Mother responded calmly. "His name is Goro Tajima. I remember Kyoko said he was a lawyer..."
