Chapter 309 Let It Go Back
Inside the Chicago train station.

"one dollar! just one dollar! (one dollar! just one dollar!)"

Standing behind several boxes of water, Xia Mi yelled at the marchers outside.

"Cough cough," Lu Mingfei coughed twice, and reminded, "Junior Sister, your sentence pattern is a common sentence used by American homeless people begging."

"Ah?" Xia Mi turned his head, blinked his eyes, a little puzzled, "Senior brother, how do you know?"

"How do you know?" Lu Mingfei showed a rather complicated expression, "When you get to school and meet a man named Finger, you will understand."

"There is not much water left, do you want to add some more?"

Lu Mingfei stood on the far left, Xia Mi stood in the middle, and Chu Zihang stood on Xia Mi's right. He bowed his head and counted the remaining mineral water and the people queuing outside, and said.

"It doesn't look like it's enough..." Lu Mingfei nodded, then turned to Xia Mi and said, "Junior Sister, can you drive? You drive to buy some goods."

"Although I got a domestic driver's license, I don't have an American driver's license." Xia Mi shook his head.

"It doesn't matter," Lu Mingfei said, "The car outside is a McLaren F1 I borrowed from a friend. This is not in China. Which policeman would dare to check the driver's license of this car?"

"How much is this car?" Xia Mi didn't know much about cars, but judging by Lu Mingfei's appearance, this car should not be cheap.

"My friend said he spent 65 yuan when he bought it." Lu Mingfei said.

"Dollar?"

"GBP."

"Damn it! Brother, do you still know such a rich friend?" Xia Mi's eyes lit up.

"Senior brother Chu also knows." Lu Mingfei shrugged.

"Caesar?" Chu Zihang asked.

When Lu Mingfei mentioned a rich friend, his first reaction was Caesar, and he was not to blame for his inertial thinking. The main reason was that Caesar always left a very deep double impression of the nouveau riche and the aristocrat on the people around him.

"It's Wiglaf," Lu Mingfei said, "She lent Xiao Qiang the car, and I borrowed it again. Brother Caesar's car is more expensive than the other, and it doesn't suit my taste."

Lu Mingfei took out the key and handed it to Xia Mi: "Go, junior sister, the destination is on the navigation, just follow it."

"Cough cough," Xia Mi coughed lightly, a little embarrassed, "Brother, I'm actually very bad at driving. I just passed the driver's license test by luck..."

"Junior Sister, that's not what you said when you applied to join the group just now," Lu Ming Feixu said, "You said that you are hardworking, smart, and able to do all kinds of dirty work, rough work, and groceries, so Brother Chu and I reluctantly agreed to your participation... ..."

"I'll go." Chu Zihang volunteered.

Xia Mi was moved.

"Oh...forget it, I'll go, you two stay and look after the store." Lu Mingfei sighed, put the key back in his pocket, and walked outside.

Brother, brother, in order to give you two a chance to be alone, I, the big boss, have been reduced to running errands to buy goods. You two have to make progress quickly, don't let me down.

Lu Mingfei left the booth, leaving only Chu Zihang and Xia Mi busy behind several boxes of water.

Xia Mi was in charge of collecting money, her eyes lit up every time she received a banknote or a coin from a guest, and Chu Zihang handed water to the guest beside her.

The sun was still hanging high outside the station, the strong sunlight scorched the air, the bright light was reflected on the glass billboards and the floor-to-ceiling windows of office buildings, and the crowd was still bustling.

At the station, Xia Mi fixed the hair curtain on one side with a hairpin, and tied her long hair into a neat ponytail with a hair tie. Chu Zihang stood beside her with the sleeves of his white shirt rolled up. The two of them stood behind several boxes, like It's the stall owner and his wife.

"Brother, when shall we go to the school to report?" Xia Mi asked while collecting money.

"It will take a week for the railway workers' strike to end," Chu Zihang said. "Judging from their slogans, it should take a week, but the news says that the talks between the railway workers' representatives and the Chicago Railway Bureau are not going well, so the possibility of an extension of the strike time cannot be ruled out. "

"Huh?" Xia Mi's eyes widened, "The workers are on strike, so we can't go to school?"

Chu Zihang gave Xia Mi a strange look: "To go to school, I have to take the CC1000 train. The station workers have gone on strike, so the train will naturally be suspended."

"No," Xia Mi shook his head, with a very surprised expression, "I mean, shouldn't the school be private? Isn't the train going to the school run independently? Could it be that the school conductors are also on strike?"

"The train itself is operated independently," Chu Zihang explained, "but the school is not involved in the operation of the station, and the switchmen and workers in the dispatch center have also gone on strike. The school has no staff for these two positions, so the train is now running. Do not come in."

"Ah? What about Senior Brother Lu? Didn't you say that he has a high status in the school? Is there a special car to pick him up? Then we two will be able to take advantage of the car." Xia Mi proposed a new idea.

"No," Chu Zihang shook his head, "He said he had already asked before, and the school is a little tight at the moment, and there is no one to pick him up, so he suggested to me to set up a stall here, because in a short time Neither of us can go back to school."

After a pause, Chu Zihang added, "You won't be able to go to school either."

"Then what should I do? I only have forty dollars left on me, how will I live this week..." Xia Mi was desperate.

"Lu Mingfei and I booked a hotel nearby, if you don't mind, you can..." Chu Zihang hesitated and suggested.

"Cohabitation?" Xia Mi said surprisingly.

Chu Zihang felt that there seemed to be something wrong with Xia Mi's words, but he couldn't tell what the problem was.

"I will open a room for you alone," Chu Zihang said, "I will pay the money..."

"That's so embarrassing." Xia Mi blinked, "Brother, just leave me a place on the floor."

Chu Zihang: ? ? ?

……

Inside the McLaren F1, Lu Mingfei was leaning on the driver's seat, driving towards the place of purchase in a bored manner, while the on-board computer was playing Katyusha.

It is worthy of being the car of Wiglaf, who comes from the family of iron-blooded dragon slayers. Although it looks like an ordinary supercar, it has undergone many concealed and practical modifications inside, and even hides some weapons.

The screen of the on-board computer suddenly lit up, Katyusha stopped abruptly, and a girl in a white dress appeared on the screen: "Researcher Lu Mingfei, good afternoon."

"Norma? What can I do for you?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"I'm sorry, due to the Chicago station strike, train CC1000 can't arrive on time. The college has prepared a special plane for you, and it will arrive in 15 minutes..."

"Let it go back." Lu Mingfei interrupted.

"What?" Norma felt that Lu Mingfei might have made a mistake, so she reconfirmed.

"I said let the special plane go back," Lu Mingfei said, "I will go back by train when the railway workers end their strike."

"Why did you do this?" Norma was puzzled.

"As an outstanding Chinese youth who was born under the red flag and grew up in the new era," Lu Mingfei said earnestly, "I want to support the strike struggle of comrades in foreign countries with practical actions. If they strike for a day here, I will Give them water for a day."

"So that's it," Norma said with a respectful expression on her delicate face, "Do I need to reply to the principal with this reason?"

"Well, that's it," Lu Mingfei nodded, and added, "By the way, tell the principal that if he asks a special plane to pick me up early, I will go there every day before the railway workers' strike is over." Find him and afternoon tea in his office."

"Okay." Norma nodded, disappeared from the screen, and kindly helped Lu Mingfei resume playing the song.

Humming along with the melody, Lu Mingfei suddenly wondered if Ling would sing "Katyusha", why don't you ask her when you get back?

But we have to wait for the railway to resume traffic first.

Supporting comrade workers is one of the reasons why he refused the school plane, and he can also use this as an excuse to fish reasonably.

And most importantly...

Senior Sister, Senior Sister, Senior Brother, I have already created opportunities for you in this way. If you can’t win Senior Brother Chu, then I can only go back and study the wine that Senior Brother Ye Sheng and Senior Sister Yaji drank in Zero’s palace.

Lu Mingfei thought secretly.
