Chapter 85 073. Welcome to Kyoto Purple Star Navigation
“Ah, we are finally here.”
Kurosawa didn’t seem to notice Li Ming’s expression, she just turned her side face Leaning on the steering wheel, waiting for the gate staff to handle the car in front, Kurosawa looked relaxed when he saw the brake light of the car in front of him turned off, and murmured softly.
Driving the Highlander near the gate, standing at the intersection was a man wearing a hat, sunglasses, and a black mask. This kind of attire always makes people feel that this guy is some kind of famous figure coming to the highway intersection. Those who experience life near Zhaguan find it very uncomfortable and out of place.
“Thank you for visiting the Capital Expressway Central Loop Entrance, but unfortunately, due to a traffic accident that just occurred on the expressway, the scene was tragic, and the police and gate staff have gone to the scene to clean up and deal with it. case, so the expressway is temporarily closed, I’m very sorry.”
The man's voice sounded a bit sharp. Li Ming sat in the passenger seat and maintained a slumped posture. In fact, he was secretly observing the man's performance. At the same time, he was also curious about how the man made such a sound. It sounded like he was using Fingernails scratching on the blackboard or the cover of a book.
“But we are going to Ikebukuro. Where else can we go without taking the Central Loop Expressway?”
Kurosawa looked a little ugly and was a little irritable. Now he was stopped inexplicably. I came down, even though I knew it was official business.
"Ikebukuro, right?"
The man held up the brim of his hat and turned his head slightly towards the driver's seat and the passenger seat.
Obviously, when he saw Li Ming in the passenger seat, although he could not see his expression clearly, Li Ming clearly felt that the man in front of him seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then there was a smile in his voice.
“Ah, you are the eldest lady of the Kurosawa Zaibatsu, Mika Kurosawa, right?” The man stretched out his hand wearing work gloves towards the girl in the driver’s seat, “First of all, I’m sorry for the girl on the highway. I feel sorry for the accident, and secondly, I feel sorry for stopping you, so to express my apology, I can give you this."
The man flipped his right hand casually and took out a card like a magic trick.
Li Dang squinted his eyes. The card was covered in black and white diagonal stripes, with the four letters HUNT vaguely formed by embossed embossed shapes. On the back of the card, No. 489 was written in gold text on the upper right corner.
Seeing these four letters, Li Dang couldn't help but think of the black card in his coat pocket. Is there any connection between TDHunt and HUNT?
“This card is an official vehicle pass that can be used to pass through highway intersections under special circumstances. With this card, you can drive on this highway. When you exit the highway, return the card to the other end. Just ask the staff.”
“It’s morning now. At 7:58, the fog on the highway has not completely dissipated. I hope you will drive carefully and strictly follow the navigation instructions in your car. I wish you a safe journey."
Man. The movement of handing Kurosawa the card suddenly stopped, and he continued speaking with a smile.
“In addition, due to the traffic accident just now, the vehicle cannot receive signals while driving. If you feel bored, you can turn on the car radio and tune to 24.4. This is a special feature our company provides to all drivers. channels, total There are twelve programs for you to listen to, which can help you relieve your boredom while driving. I apologize to you again.”
Kurosawa took the hard black card and handed it to him casually. He looked at Li Ming, who was sitting next to him, and nodded silently in response.
"Mist", "Strictly follow", "Do not receive signals", "Special channel", these phrases were extracted from the words spoken by the man. Perhaps because of his instinct as a private detective, Li Ming always felt that something was wrong. Something was wrong, but I couldn't put my finger on it.
When he saw Kurosawa and was about to drive the Highlander forward in the man's field of vision, Li Dang stretched out his right hand and patted Kurosawa's shoulder. This was the first time he touched Kurosawa with his hand. His body, the comfort of the cheongsam fabric reflected back to his mind through his hands, showing some confusion.
"Um, can you tell me what happened on the highway?"
Li Ming quickly recovered from his daze and waited with the man in Kurosawa's confused and surprised expression. He asked in front of his appearance.
“This gentleman, you have just made it very clear that a tragic accident occurred on the highway. It was so tragic that even the forensic doctor who attended the scene could not help but vomit, and a large number of people who witnessed the scene Everyone is in a daze, so in order to ensure the safety of the driver, all vehicles are refused entry.”
"But..." the man paused when he said this, "but Miss Kurosawa Mitaka is the heir to the famous Kurosawa Zaibatsu in Chiba Prefecture. If we grassroots people don't have good relations with Miss Kurosawa, we may not have any in the future. Our way out. "
To be honest, the man's words sounded a bit strange, but Li Dang felt that this was the case, but considering that Kurosawa was still around, he couldn't put it into perspective. Express your own thoughts.
“Ah, I’m sorry, I just said the wrong thing. My emotional intelligence is relatively low and I’m not very good at speaking. I hope Miss Mikka Kurosawa doesn’t mind and I would like to express my deep apology to you again.”
Obviously, Kurosawa was angry. She twitched the corners of her mouth and stepped on the accelerator. The Highlander kicked up a burst of dust and flew away.
Li Deng sat in the passenger seat, his face changed, but he didn't speak.
The two of them were speechless along the way. They could only hear the sound of the engine and their breathing. Looking sideways, the first thing that caught their eyes was Kurosawa's up and down body, moving evenly and regularly, followed by the car on the right side of Kurosawa. The thick fog was constantly being stirred and billowing outside the windowpane.
For a long time Li Fang tentatively stretched out his hand towards the car audio. After finding that Kurosawa made no move, he boldly followed the man's instructions and adjusted the frequency of the radio to 24.4.
Although something felt wrong, not only about the reason for closing the highway intersection, but also about the man's performance, as the voice gradually became clearer, Li Ming's tense mental state suddenly relaxed and he took a sneak peek. Kurosawa on the side noticed that her face, which had been frowning and looking straight ahead, now calmed down.
When you are almost bored, external sounds will play a role in stimulating the atmosphere.
——Li Ming also realized it deeply at this moment.
I remember that man seemed to have said that there are a total of twelve programs. I wonder which ones they will be?
