Chapter 22: The Sixteenth Cycle of Time
Li Shiqing and Xiao Heyun are awake again, awakened by the announcement of the arrival of Gang Wu New Village.
At the sound of the station announcement, Boy struggled to pull out his mobile phone and look at it.
13.15.
The timing of this sobriety was perfect, as it coincided with the Gang Wu New Village stop for boarding and alighting.
The two young men, still in a weakened state, knew that the bus had arrived, but they could only watch as several strange passengers got off the bus.
There were seven or eight people getting off at this stop, and the carriage was quite empty as soon as the passengers got off.
When most of the passengers had left the bus, the sturdy man with the bag got on.
The gym bag that had been sitting on his seat was now slung over one shoulder and seemed to be stuffed to the gills, even as he tilted his body a little.
When he got into the car, he looked around and finally chose an unoccupied seat, and then, as Li Shiqing remembered, he put the big bag on the inside window seat.
