From a distance, Gu Mian saw the crowded insurance company. He was asking Coach Che to identify anyone he might know in the crowd when he heard the harsh sound of tires screeching against the road.
Instinctively, he thought a car was losing control and heading straight towards him. He immediately pulled Coach Che, and they both jumped back a large step.
He stood frozen for a couple of seconds, but seeing no oncoming vehicle, he looked up in the direction of the sound.
He saw a bus, exhaust fumes spewing from its rear, hastily departing and disappearing in an instant.
Keke, too, was watching the bus leave. I've never seen a bus look so frantic before, she thought.
Wind Blows Butt Cool, who was about to reveal himself to save Gu Mian, was startled by the bus's sudden turn. He froze for a moment. Just as he recovered and was about to warn Gu Mian, someone from the insurance building suddenly shrieked, "The one surnamed Gu is here! Everybody run!"
