Heroes of the Restricted Zone

Chapter 868 There is no unparalleled road (the first update asks for a guaranteed monthly pass!)
Chen Yingxiong and Cabrera stood outside the guardrail of the expressway, watching the cars whizzing by.

He was not in a hurry anymore, because it was useless to be in a hurry.

The broken down car was more than 20 meters ahead.

He originally planned to call for help, but found that his mobile phone had run out of battery due to too many calls in the past two days, and Cabrera's mobile phone was the same.

There are farmlands on both sides of the M1 highway, and there are no shops in front of the village or behind.A long way from the bustling town.

Now the two of them are really in a state of ineffectiveness every day.

"This is really a crime other than war..."

Chen Yingxiong looked up at the sky and sighed.It really happened that the house was leaking and it was raining continuously, not to mention the car broke down. At this time, the sky had been gloomy and the cold rain was falling again.

The car broke down on the highway. For safety reasons, people can't stay in the car.There is only one umbrella in the car, which is not big. If two people support it, the result will be that both of them will get wet.So Chen Yingxiong insisted on letting Cabrera support, and stood aside to get wet in the rain.He also said that such a little rain did not affect him at all.

He was hurrying ahead, and at this moment, because the car broke down, it became like a joke.

"Have you given up, hero?" Cabrera asked him.

"So what if I don't give up? I can't run to Liverpool from here, can I? It's two hundred kilometers!"

"Try to hitch a ride," Cabrera said.

Chen Yingxiong was startled: "This is a highway! Didn't you see that these cars are driving fast?"

"Always have to try. Don't you often say this?" Cabrera reached into the guardrail after speaking, and raised his thumb up, which was a gesture to stop the car.

Hearing what she said, Chen Yingxiong came up to him and stopped the car with her.

For now, this is the only way.

At 45:1 on January [-], Chen Yingxiong and Cabrera stopped a car on the side of the M[-] highway.

Five hours and 15 minutes until the start of the game.

Martin O'Neill was still a little uneasy. He planned to call Chen Yingxiong again and ask where he was.

But after calling him, he was told that "the phone you dialed has been turned off"...

How is this going?

out of battery?
O'Neill frowned.

But he thought again, since they are all on the way to Liverpool, then it shouldn't be a problem, right?
He never thought that Chen Yingxiong's car would break down...

※ ※ ※

At 11:30 on January [-], Chen Yingxiong and Cabrera were still stopping the car on the spot.

From two people stopping at the same time, it has become a turn to stop the car, one person goes to stop the car, and the other takes a rest.

They still haven't stopped a car.

The speed of the car is so fast that most people don't even notice them, and some people would not risk hitting the brakes even if they saw them.

"Damn it... it seems that you didn't recognize me..."

At the beginning, Chen Yingxiong stood confidently by the guardrail and stretched out his hand to stop the car.He thought to himself that he was also England's hottest star, and people who came and went would definitely recognize him.They must be very happy to help a star in distress, right?I will naturally thank this foreign leader who has done good deeds.

But he stood on the side of the road for a long time, and no one stopped to greet them warmly.

It wasn't true that no one recognized him.With his face in the media every week, and his physique so conspicuous, how could it be impossible to recognize him?
But the few people who recognized Chen Yingxiong were not Liverpool fans.And they all know that Chen Yingxiong is very important to Liverpool, so out of mutual selfishness, no one stops the car to help Chen Yingxiong.

So poor Chen Yingxiong was left in this "wilderness".

※ ※ ※

At twelve o'clock on January [-], the Liverpool players had already had lunch in the restaurant, and after a short break after lunch, they were ready to go to the stadium.Generally speaking, for an ordinary league match, the team has to go to the stadium an hour in advance to prepare.

In other words, at 03:30, Liverpool had to leave for Anfield.

And Chen Yingxiong must rush to the stadium before then.

However, Chen Yingxiong's cell phone was turned off, and he couldn't get through at all, and he had no other way to contact him.Now O'Neill can only imagine where Chen Yingxiong is.

Presumably, they should be arriving in Liverpool soon, right?Maybe it's just outside Liverpool now?
Martin O'Neill thought so, but he was still a little worried in his heart.

He always felt that things were not going well, and he was always worried that something might happen to Chen Yingxiong on the way.

This worry has been in my heart and I can't get rid of it.

He also knew that he had no evidence that Chen Yingxiong would be delayed, but just like an intuition, he couldn't get rid of that thought.

Strange, obviously Chen Yingxiong called himself and said that he was already on his way to Liverpool.Even if their mobile phones are turned off because they run out of battery, it stands to reason that it will not delay their formation, and they don't need to use their mobile phones when driving...

So this should be a foolproof thing, why do I feel that something is wrong?
O'Neill shook his head, trying to get the thought out of his mind.

※ ※ ※

O'Neill was worried about whether Chen Yingxiong could come back in time, and Chen Yingxiong's teammates were also discussing this issue during dinner.

"Why hasn't the hero come?" Adam Johnson even looked up at the entrance of the restaurant from time to time when he was eating, as if he could see Chen Yingxiong stepping in every time he looked up.

"I called him, and he said he was driving this way and arrived in England this morning..." How about Chen Yingxiong's mobile phone battery?It is really a miracle that the smartphone can last until Chen Yingxiong enters the UK with so many calls.

"Then it should be fine, right?"

"But it's been several hours. He should have driven there even if he was driving a classic car? Not to mention that the one with him is... Cabrera." Sanchez has some understanding of Cabrera's driving level Yes, in places like Naples where the traffic is chaotic, you can drive fast, so naturally you won't be a person who drives a classic car.

So if Cabrera was really driving, in fact, Chen Yingxiong should be able to reach Liverpool before lunch.

Why hasn't it arrived yet?

Like O'Neill, everyone was more or less worried and uneasy.

At 12:30 on January [-], Chen Yingxiong hadn't stopped the car yet.Fortunately, when we departed from Frankfurt, we did a lot of shopping, so we got some bread sandwiches on the broken-down car. Although it was a cold day and the taste was not very good, Tian Tian’s stomach was okay.

Chen Yingxiong was nibbling on a cold sandwich when he saw a red car coming from a distance in front of him. From a distance, the car was quite old.
He hastily stretched out his hand again, looking forward to meeting a kind person this time.

In fact, he really didn't have any hope in his heart, because before that, he had been disappointed too many times.

※ ※ ※

Phil Gibbs was driving a 1975 Ford with two of his friends in the car.They just went to London to meet the girls, and we all had a very happy new year holiday together.

Currently returning to Liverpool from London.

The radio in the car was on, and it was supposed to be playing a preview of the Liverpool-Newcastle game.

The topic that the host talked about the most was Chen Yingxiong.

"...At present we have no more news about Chen Yingxiong. No one knows where he is. At the entrance of the hotel where Liverpool is staying, our reporters have been squatting there, but we have not seen Chen Yingxiong. ..."

"Oh! Damn it!" The three young men in the car complained at the same time. "Isn't it? The hero hasn't returned to Liverpool yet?"

"This damn Icelandic volcano! Iceland, this bankrupt and rotten place, should sink quickly!"

"Shut up! Phil, my aunt's family is in Reykjavik!" A young man with red hair and freckles sitting in the back seat shook his fist.

"Then tell them to move to Liverpool quickly. Wouldn't they be afraid of being buried in magma if they live in such a crappy place where they can only eat fish?" Phil Gibbs, who was driving, pouted.

"I agree with Phil, the country of Iceland is really rotten! It owes us money and has a referendum, then it's fucking declared bankrupt, and then it just reneges on the debt! It's so shameless! I have to even pay for this season's Liverpool There is no money to buy a package ticket..."

"Go away, Tom. You don't have any money because you think you spent it all on that fat chick Leona!"

While the three partners were arguing in the car, Phil Gibbs suddenly noticed a person standing in the rain on the side of the road ahead, and made a gesture to stop the car.

He suddenly laughed: "Hey, guys, look, there's an idiot blocking a car in the rain! Ahaha!"

He successfully attracted the attention of the other two, and the three turned their heads to look over.

"It seems that the car broke down. It's a pity that the weather is so bad that it's halfway..." Of course, not everyone is as heartless and sympathetic as Phil Gibbs.

"Is the one behind him with the umbrella his girl? She has a very good figure!"

"Would you like to blow a whistle to tease me?"

Just kidding, Tom Jackson, a young man sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly noticed something was wrong.

"Slow down, Phil!"

"What? Are you really going to help them?"

"No, I just think that person is a bit of a hero..."

Before he finished speaking, Phil Gibson's car sped past Chen Yingxiong.

But then there was a screeching sound of brakes.

"FUCK! Don't slam on the brakes! How did you get your driver's license, Phil?! It's raining! Damn! Your car doesn't have antilock brakes!"

"Hold on to the steering wheel! Hold on to it! God...it's on the highway!"

There was a sound of howling ghosts and howling wolves sounded in the car.

Chen Yingxiong watched the red classic car speeding past him turn left and right on the road, making a serpentine movement for a while before stabilizing, and then stopped on the side of the road with emergency lights flashing.

"It seems that there is no unparalleled road, hero." Cabrera walked up with an umbrella, and turned the umbrella to Chen Yingxiong intentionally or unintentionally.
