Zhou Rong put his hands on the steering wheel, his eyes red red, not saying a word
Si Nan got into the front seat froreeted by heavy nicotine s a little as he said, “Switch with me?”
Zhou Rong shook his head
“You’ve been driving for too long”
Zhou Rong still did not speak
Si Nan fell silent for aGe The dozen of people in these two cars are counting on you Who else would they rely on if you are down as well? The car behind us has changed driver twice between Yan Hao and Chun Cao ”
”…… Driving a biodiesel-car is not easy” Zhou Rong finally opened his mouth and talked in a hoarse voice,”The road here is difficult, and we have to hurry The farther ae are from T city, the better”
Sinan was about to say so the front car, calling the front car! Captain, our radio station is silent on this side, how about yours? ”
Zhou Rong's expression changed and he quickly opened the car's radio

-No shortwave signal
In the back seat, three of special soldiers suddenly woke up as if they were aware that soot up and squeezed forward, and instantly alarly expression The h the car radio, but like a fish disappearing in a the ocean, there was no reply The radio stayed absolutely silent except for those sizzling noises
Zhou Rong suddenly stepped on the brakes and took a deep breath He opened the car door and walked out

The people on the bus couldn't restrain themselves and peeked outside with hesitant eyes
