Another reason why Lin Mai doesn't eat or drink is that it's not very safe on the train in this era.
Even if there are patrols by the police and train conductors, they cannot stop thieves, pickpockets and cheaters from running amok.
She didn't dare to leave the goods she worked so hard to get easily.
If she eats something, drinks water, or wants to go to the toilet, and a bad guy takes the opportunity to come in and steal her goods, the passengers in the same carriage as her will not stop her.
When going out, everyone just wants to protect themselves and not meddle in other people's business.
At that time, she will make heaven and earth unavailable, and the earth and earth will not respond.
So in order to avoid these unnecessary troubles, she would rather not eat or drink.
It only lasts for more than ten hours, and it’s not like I can’t stop.
In order to make it easier for Lin Mai to look at the goods, Fang Zhuoran specially asked the clerk at the guest house to buy her the bottom bunk.
Lin Mai lay comfortably on his berth and closed his eyes to relax.
The old woman who was sleeping on her berth stood in front of her and patted her own berth impatiently with her hand, and said to her:
"I said young people, can't you respect the old and love the young? Seeing that I am so old, you still let me climb up and down to sleep on the upper bunk? Get up and change bunks with me!"
Is this the legendary bad guy getting older?
Lin Mai slowly opened his eyes: "I wasn't the one who asked you to climb up and down the upper bunk. It should be your children. They bought the upper bunk for you to save money.
Also, please don't touch me or yell at me. I just had heart surgery at Southern Medical University.
I'm afraid you've affected my condition and I can't afford to pay for it. By the way, would you like me to show you my surgery bill? It cost several thousand in total."
She could get the surgery bill.
In the secret compartment of her bag containing her personal belongings was Doudou's surgery bill, which she had never taken out since it was there. It seemed like it might come in handy today.
Of course, you won't show this bad old man a closer look when you take it out, just shake it around.
Lin Mai learned this move from Fang Zhuoran.
That night, the two of them stayed in the small state-owned hotel. Fang Zhuoran pretended to be comrades with the gangster outside the door, and persuaded the gangster to retreat without any blood.
Although the bad old woman looked at Lin Mai suspiciously for a long time, she was not afraid of ten thousand, but what if she really had a heart attack?
If someone gets angry, he won't be able to escape the blame, so he has no choice but to give up and turn around to look at the other lower bunk.
On the other lower bunk lived a mother and her son. The mother was very young, in her early twenties, well-dressed, intellectual and beautiful, and she looked like a well-educated person.
The child was only two or three years old and was in a bit of a bad mood, leaning softly in his mother's arms.
The bad old man said angrily: "Change places with me!"
The beautiful mother looked at the bad old man inexplicably,
Although she thought her request was very rude, she still explained in a polite manner: "I asked my grandpa to tell my grandma to buy a sleeper ticket because my child was sick. I can't exchange it with you."
The bad old man squinted his eyes and asked angrily: "What's wrong with your child?"
"I've had a fever for two days and I'm feeling exhausted." When the beautiful mother said this, she touched her child's forehead.
The bad old man secretly rolled his eyes in disdain and said that his luck was not that bad and that he would not encounter all high-risk patients.
She said with a look of disdain: "You are just pretending to be sick with me for a minor illness. Get up quickly and change places with me!"
There were only four berths in a soft sleeper compartment, and the other passenger in the same compartment turned a deaf ear. Anyway, everything happening in the compartment had nothing to do with him.
Only Lin Mai was furious.
Not to mention that she had been a human being for two lifetimes, even if she had been a human being for two hundred lifetimes, she would not be able to accept this bad old man bullying this mother and son.
Although it's a small matter, it doesn't matter if you give in a little bit, but I just can't stand it.
What's wrong with you being an old man? You should be arrogant!
Although Lin Mai always warned herself to be indifferent, when faced with some injustices, her sense of justice would still overflow and she could not suppress it.
The beautiful mother refuses to give in.
Who wants to live in the upper bunk? It's inconvenient to climb up and down, not to mention she has a sick child in tow.
Besides, the price of the lower berth is more expensive and the price of the upper berth is cheaper. Why should she lose her own interests and switch to that bad old man?
Besides, the bad old man has a bad attitude, so she doesn't want to change with him.
The beautiful mother lost her good temper and said with a dark face: "Why should I change with you?"
The bad old man said confidently: "As an old man, I respect the old and love the young, do you understand?"
The beautiful mother sarcastically said: "You still know the word "respect the old and love the young". Didn't you see that I brought a sick child? Isn't this just childishness?
The bad old man was silenced by the rebuke, and suddenly started to get angry. He picked up the mother and son's belongings from their berth and threw them to the ground.
"If you don't want to change today, you have to change it. If you want to change it, you have to change it!"
Little Shota was so frightened that she burst into tears.
"Why do you throw away my things!" The beautiful mother was so angry that she pushed the bad old man.
The bad old man took advantage of the situation and screamed: "I hit someone! I beat someone to death!"
In this era, it is not common for people to get into trouble.
The beautiful mother had never encountered such a situation before, and her face turned red with anger: "Who hit you? It was obviously you who fell down on purpose!"
Lin Mai thought to himself that trying to reason with this kind of person is like seeking the skin of a tiger. Not only is it useless, they will also go all out to frame you.
He immediately reprimanded loudly: "Old man, why are you like this? Don't you have any grandchildren at home?
In order to steal someone else's lower bunk, you actually hit someone else's child, that's too much!"
She can only act up to this point for the time being, it depends on whether the mother is willing to cooperate.
Only by cooperating can she continue to act and help the mother and son deal with this bad old man.
The mother was quite clever. She messed up her hair and cried loudly: "If you want to beat me, just beat me. Why do you want to beat my child?"
Works well together!
Lin Mai said to the mother: "I'll go find the police to handle it right now!"
After that, he quickly left with the bad old man's dumbfounded expression.
After a while, he came back with a policeman and a conductor.
The bad old man lay on the ground and didn't get up. When he saw the policeman and the conductor, he started crying miserably.
"Comrade Public Security, I was beaten, you have to make the decision for me!"
Lin Mai said angrily: "You have wronged me. It was obviously you who wanted to seize someone else's lower bunk, threw away someone else's things, and beat the child.
When you saw that I was going to call the police, you panicked and deliberately lied on the ground to wrongfully accuse me!"
"I don't!"
"You have!"
"I didn't. You and this mother and son are in the same group, deliberately bullying my old lady!"
Lin Mai asked maliciously: "Were you beaten?"
The bad old man looked at her doubtfully and didn't understand why she asked.
But now it's hard to get off the tiger, and she can't change her rhetoric.
There was cunning in her eyes: "You asked knowingly, and I was the one who was beaten by you two?"
"You're talking nonsense! We didn't even lay a finger on you!"
The beautiful mother is very smart. Not only did she categorically deny hitting her, she even refused to admit that she pushed her.
"You're talking nonsense! You just beat me!"
Seeing that her beautiful mother was arguing with the bad old man, Lin Mai quickly stopped her with gestures.
He asked the bad old man jokingly: "Where did we hit you?"
"Here, here, and here."
The bad old man pointed to his chest, liver and kidneys, and shouted his injustice to the police and train conductors, "Comrade public security, comrade conductors, you have to make the decision for me!"
Lin Mai said: "Since we beat you, you must be injured. Let the conductor check it. Then won't the truth come out?"
The old man immediately became hesitant and refused to let the conductor check.
Lin Mai asked: "The conductor is a woman, why didn't you let her check? What are you afraid of?"
The bad old man scratched his neck and said: "Who is afraid!"
"If you're not afraid, let the conductor check it!"
The police officer also advised: "Just let the conductor check it. Only if we have evidence can we seek justice for you."
