Corpse Recovery Diver

Chapter 1559 285:

The train arrived at the station.The teacher and student duo were in the sleeper carriage, both with lower berths.

After placing their luggage and taking off their coats, Luo Tingrui was already yawning, saying, "Finally I can get a good long sleep."

"Teacher, you really need to rest. Mistress Luo said you were forced to get a physical checkup last time, and there are many issues with your health, all due to exhaustion."

"This isn't like being at school." Luo Tingrui hung up his coat, "Also, you have the nerve to talk about me. What about yourself? How long has it been since you've rested?"

"I'm still young; I can handle it."

"Being young is not an excuse to abuse your health."

"You can't set an example for me, so that kind of counsel doesn't work on me."

"You rascal, I've gotten married and have kids now. What about you? You're not that young anymore, aren't you considering it?"

"No rush."

"You don't even attend the arranged blind dates."

"Work is busy. Whenever I think about the unfinished tasks at hand, I feel too lazy to meet new people."

"Recently, I heard from Xiao Feng that a girl proactively invited you to dinner and even secretly went to your place to organize things for you?"

"Not just one girl."

"Haha, you're quite in demand. How come I never noticed before?"

At this moment, a gentle woman dressed in a cheongsam walked in, holding a train ticket in her hand.

Seeing this, Luo Tingrui directly pointed to his lower berth, "Comrade, take this lower berth, where's your berth?"

The woman gestured to the berth above Xue Liangliang.

"Alright."

Luo Tingrui prepared to climb up.

"Teacher, I'll go up, you sleep below."

"Once I get to sleep, I won't come down. I'd prefer some quiet, so no more arguing."

Xue Liangliang stopped arguing.

Soon, Mr. Luo's snoring echoed, quite loud.

The train started moving, this soft sleeper compartment had four beds, and the other ticket probably hadn't been sold, given that at the time, soft sleeper tickets were a bit too luxurious for most people.

It was because Mr. Luo had accumulated so much fatigue, and knowing no one would look for him while the train was running, nor did he have any means to work if found, he slept exceptionally soundly.

Thus, he didn't know that right below his berth, his student slept together with the "never-before-seen" pregnant woman.

Her body was soft, cool, with only her slightly bulging stomach carrying some warmth.

Fortunately, Xue Liangliang had long adapted to her body temperature, and later yearned for it intensely.

Previously, they had always met beneath the river; this was their first time side by side on land.

Xue Liangliang discovered a strong sense of anticipation and joy surging within him, envisioning a future where he could live like ordinary people with her.

Neither spoke any words, just gently hugging, as the woman tenderly stroked the man's hair, watching as he gradually fell into a deep sleep, a smile appeared on her lips, as she lowered her gaze to her belly, her smile growing more pronounced.

Luo Tingrui really slept throughout, never coming down.

After getting enough sleep, Xue Liangliang rose, quietly flipping through documents, while the woman nestled beside him, accompanying silently without interruption.

Until... the train suddenly stopped without a platform.

The attendant came to report the situation, stating that a tunnel ahead collapsed and is undergoing repairs, necessitating the train to stop here for a long time. Passengers in a hurry could request refunds and find other transportation nearby.

"Liangliang, how long did I sleep?"

"Almost a day and night."

"I slept that long."

Luo Tingrui climbed down from the upper berth, urgently went to the toilet.

After opening the toilet door, upon exiting, he found Xue Liangliang waiting for him at the door.

"How long will the repairs ahead take?"

"It's going to take quite a while."

"Can't delay the trip, let's get off the train."

"It was my oversight. I should have known to take a plane."

"Haha, if you let me choose, I would still wish for this good sleep. I feel like I'm alive again, and what's more, our compartment didn't feel stuffy even though the windows were closed, it was breezy, wrapped in a quilt, it was really comfortable to sleep."

The two packed their luggage and got off the train.

Although the train didn't stop at a platform, it didn't halt in a deserted area either, as the railway led directly to a county town.

At this moment, many passengers also left the train, walking down in crowds.

Luo Tingrui stopped, took out a cigarette, placed it in his mouth just lit, he turned around and saw the gentle pregnant woman once again appear behind him.

Luo Tingrui held onto the smoke, took several steps, exhaling towards the sky.

Xue Liangliang stepped forward, pretending to engage in conversation with the woman.

Upon Luo Tingrui's return, seeing the woman hadn't left, he asked, "Comrade, where are you headed?"

Xue Liangliang helped to answer, "Also going to Fengdu, traveling the same way as us. Originally planning to reach Mountain City and then transfer."

Luo Tingrui nodded, said to the woman, "Don't worry, we're not bad people. If you trust us, let's find transportation together."

The woman nodded and said, "Alright, thank you."

"Liangliang, it will be laborious for you to search for a car."

"Teacher, I think we should eat first."

"You're hungry?"

"You're the one hungry."

"Oh, right, really past hungry now."

They found a restaurant, ate together, and came out, finding the sky already dark.

Luo Tingrui: "Now, it's difficult to find a car."

At this moment, a vehicle that appeared to be a taxi but without taxi signage stopped in front of them, the driver rolled down the window, revealing a woman's face with makeup, asking:

"Where to?"

Luo Tingrui: "Taking a long trip."

The female driver laughed, "Let's go then, just need to quote a price."
