"Not foot-and-mouth disease."
Hearing this, the staff member removed his mask and pointed ahead.
"Something leaked up ahead. It's just a routine inspection, nothing serious."
"That's what you said last time too!"
The driver looked furious and complained repeatedly.
"If it turns out to be swine fever again and I made this trip for nothing, I won't let you people off!"
"Alright, stop complaining."
The staff member was helpless in the face of the driver's anger. He waved the traffic baton in his hand.
"Go on, go on. Inspection's complete."
Still doubtful, the driver rolled up his window, drove through the checkpoint, and continued onward.
"...What the hell leaked, anyway? So damn mysterious, these guys..."
"They're seriously not trustworthy at all."
As he spoke—
Beep beep beep—beep beep beep—
The phone on the passenger seat started ringing.
The driver glanced over, then reached for the phone without slowing down.
Rustle—
The car sped along the deserted road. The driver kept staring toward the passenger seat, his fingers almost reaching the phone.

A tremendous impact suddenly rang out!

"Could you stop digging your fingers into my kidneys?"
Gu Sheng bared his teeth as he looked at Shen Miaomiao, his expression somewhat pained.
"We don't have any beef with each other. Isn't your grip a little too strong?"
"Sorry, sorry..."
Shen Miaomiao flashed an apologetic grin.
"I'll try to control myself. Hehe."
Gu Sheng took the cola Shen Miaomiao handed him, reluctantly accepting her apology, and turned back to the movie.
