Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1734 - 1503: Hidden Crisis (Two in One)
"Oh my, that’s so tragic..."
Su Ran looked in surprise at the distant flames, which were growing more and more intense. It seemed that this car accident was very severe, and it might even be fatal! 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
"Son, is cursing someone... illegal?"
Su’s mother was dumbfounded. She never expected the script to play out exactly as she said, and now that it had come to this point, she felt a bit of guilt and remorse.
"What’s the big deal? That person brought it upon themselves; it has nothing to do with us!"
Su Ran watched the car’s initial speed and had been wanting to mock it for a while. What, trying to take off? But when he saw Little Black rushing back from a distance, he seemed to understand something and secretly gave it a thumbs up.
"Hey, sister, you ordered the car, right? Sorry, I ran into a little trouble earlier and just got here. I’m not too late, am I?"
A white SUV stopped in front of Su Ran, and a woman with average looks stuck her head out, showing an apologetic smile.
The woman looked to be about thirty, wearing black-framed glasses and dressed plainly, but she appeared very clean.
"What do you mean ’sister’? My son is almost as old as you!"
Su’s mother lost all her anger at being called ’sister’ and said happily, "No worries, not late, not late! Little Ran, get in the car quickly, don’t catch a cold!"
Seeing Su Ran’s appearance, the female driver was quite surprised and said a little embarrassedly, "Your son is already this big? I should really call you auntie, but you do look very young!"
"Is that so? You really know how to talk, haha..."
Su’s mother was flattered and laughed modestly, "Is the price what we discussed? Don’t blame me for being nosy, it’s reassuring to ask clearly first."
"Auntie, your worry is unnecessary. Even if I’m short on cash, I won’t scam people. If need be, you can take out your phone and record while I say it again in front of you. That way, you’ll have evidence."
The female driver wasn’t annoyed by Su’s mother’s words and continued smilingly, "Get in the car quickly, it’s too cold outside, it’s not suitable to freeze!"
"You really know how to talk; it sounds so comforting. Little Ran, I’ll put these nutrient solutions in the car trunk, you get in the car and warm up."
Su’s mother picked up two barrels, obviously struggling, but before she could move, Su Ran stopped her.
"Mom, better put it in the car; we might need it on the road."
Su Ran opened the car door, fussed with it for a long time, and finally managed to squeeze the Nutrient Barrel inside. It was so tight that even one person sitting in the back seemed cramped. Helplessly, Su Ran held Little Black and sat in the back, letting mom sit in the front passenger seat.
"Everyone seated? I’m starting the car!"
The female driver effortlessly engaged the brake, released the handbrake, and shifted the gears. The car slowly started. Su Ran glanced at the house where he had lived for over ten years, feeling full of emotion.
For a moment, he felt reluctant. The house was filled with memories, but fortunately, mom had no plans to sell it. Otherwise, he really would have had to tidy up well and wouldn’t leave so easily.
"Auntie, what are you two up to? Why bring so much nutrient solution?"
On the road, the female driver habitually asked. This not only increased interaction between both parties, warming up the atmosphere but also served as a way to discreetly gather some information.
"Oh, let me tell you, what we’re doing is..."
Su’s mother, with no energy left, saw the driver actively chatting with her and immediately opened up, starting her speech. But before she could say a few words, Su Ran interrupted her.
"Mom, don’t talk about everything. Also, this is our private matter; there’s no need to answer."
Su Ran stared at the back of the female driver’s head, paused for a moment, then asked, "Sister, I have a few questions for you. Why is it that the person my mom contacted wasn’t the first one to pick us up, but someone else? Also, the car accident was so serious, yet why are there no traces of it when we got here?"
The fire was coming from not far ahead, Su Ran remembered that very clearly. But strangely, the car drove so far and there was no sign of a collision at all. Even if someone cleaned up the scene, it was too fast, right?
Not long after the accident, this SUV arrived. Isn’t that too much of a coincidence?
Very likely, a team is orchestrating all of this!
From this, it’s not hard to speculate that we, mother and son, have fallen into a conspiracy!
However, with Little Black here, it is difficult to suppress it in general situations, and with so much nutrient solution, Su Ran is confident of creating large-scale chain lightning!
Of course, whether he can withstand the depletion of energy is still a question. This is the last resort for self-preservation, and if it can be avoided, it should be avoided. If worse comes to worst, perish together!
"Huh? That really is a question!"
Su’s mother considered the female driver a trustworthy person and forgot the previous unpleasantness.
"I said, little brother, can you stop being so suspicious? Which ride-hailing platform these days doesn’t disclose user information? According to the scheduled time, I wasn’t late, and as for the accident, how would I know? I wasn’t the one who did it, right?"
The female driver wasn’t caught off guard by Su Ran’s sudden questions; she answered flawlessly, without even altering her smile.
"Yes, Little Ran, did we wrongly accuse her? If we don’t have evidence, let’s not say too much to avoid causing any unpleasantness. She’s just trying to make a living; it’s not easy for her either."
