They ran for a long distance and stopped at the snack street behind the school.
There was a public toilet on the side of the street. They went into it to take off their school uniforms,
inside which were their winter jackets. They put uniforms into bags and went out.
Before coming out, Jessica looked around behind the wall. After making sure nothing was wrong, they
went out.
"What a close call. We almost got caught."
Although Jessica said that, Summer didn't sense the fear in her tone.
"It was even lucky if we got caught." She walked beside Jessica slowly, and said calmly, "If we got
photographed by reporters, we might be the headline tomorrow, and you will be the trending topic, like
'Break news, Jessica is a transvestite' or 'Jessica sneaked into a school in the middle of the night'".
Jessica made a bitter smile, "Stop it. I am not a pervert."
"Well, the media doesn't care if you're a pervert or not. Anyway, all they want is getting hits."
"Come on. We didn't get photographed. I am so hungry. I'm gonna get something to eat."
"Next time..."
"Alright, alright. I know."
Getting tired of her lecturing, Jessica interrupted her and ran forward with her.
Because students were on their winter holiday and the New Year was around the corner, many shops
were closed, only a few of them were still open.
They randomly went into a restaurant to find something to eat. The school did not change much, while
the snack street changed a lot.
When they studied here before, they had tasted all kinds of snacks there. The owner of the restaurant
was a middle-aged man, who seemed to be taciturn. He came over with the menu and asked, "Ready
to order? Here is the menu."
Just as Summer took the menu, he suddenly lowered his head and whispered, "Just the two of you?"
Hearing this, Jessica became vigilant. He kept whispering, "There was a car following behind you just
now. I thought they were with you, but if not, you'd better call some friend to pick you up or just call the
police."
"What? Are you saying ...?" Sitting with her back to the door, Jessica felt a chill down her spine. She
realized that she was too loud just now, and quickly covered her mouth to stop talking.
Summer was sitting opposite the door. She glanced outside and pointed at the name of a dish and said
to the owner, "Thank you. We got it."
After ordering the food, Summer called Bruce.
He didn't answer the phone for a long time. "Hello, Bruce. Listen, we have a situation here. Someone is
following us. Would you come over to pick us up?"
Bruce just said one word, "Address?"
Summer told him.
Jessica heard what they said clearly. After Summer hung up the phone, she frowned and asked, "You
just called your bodyguard? How about calling the police now?"
For her, a bodyguard was not as helpful as the police.
Summer shook her head, "No. We just went here from the school. It's kind of far. If those following us
are up to something, they would have a lot of opportunities to do that. But now we don't even know
what they want, it's risky to call the police."
"OK then. How many people are in that car, huh? Maybe I can also give them a lesson, you know?"
Jessica began to roll up her sleeves as she said.
But her clothes were so thick that she couldn't roll them up. Summer smiled and pretended not to see
this. She got up and went to the bathroom.
There was a small window in the bathroom, through which she could see the outside. She didn't turn
on the light when she came in, but stand by the window to look out. She saw a black car parked not far
away.
The car was parked in the dark. There was a shop in front of the car. The lights of the shop made it
impossible to see who were in the car.
Those in the car didn't move at all, and Summer just stood there to watch them.
Glancing at her watch, she found that they had been sitting in the car for almost twenty minutes.
She didn't think they worked for Logan, because those who worked for him were rash. If they really
wanted to do something to her, they wouldn't wait for so long.
She guessed maybe those in the car didn't want to hurt them. She came out of the bathroom and went
to the kitchen.
"Excuse me, mister, could you open the back door?" She found a back door when she came back, but
it was locked.
The owner of the restaurant looked up and asked her, "What's going on?"
Summer smiled and said gently, "My friends are coming over. I want them to come directly from the
back door, so I can go with them to find out who is following us."
"No problem." The owner opened it without any hesitation.
Walking out of the back door, Summer went around for quite a long time before she went to the street
in front of the restaurant.
There were several cars parked on the street. She had already confirmed the location of the car that
followed them, so she walked over directly.
As she walked, she held a brick in her hand tightly.
When she came out of the back door just now, she picked up a brick to protect herself.
When she was only two meters away from the car, she sped up and quickly ran over to open the car
door.
There was no light on in the car, and she could only see a faint silhouette. Even though it was just a
silhouette, Summer immediately recognized who it was.
The guy in the car didn't expect that she would show up, and he was shocked.
After a while, Summer murmured, "Leonardo?"
Why was he here?
She had thought of all possibilities, but she never thought that it would be him!
Leonardo pushed open the door and got out of the car. When he was in the car, she didn't have any
feelings but shock. But as soon as he got out of the car, all those familiar feelings came back, his face,
his commanding aura...
He looked at her expressionlessly and said in a cold tone, "Just passing by. Can't I?"
"You're lying." Summer clenched the brick in her hand subconsciously, "The owner of the restaurant
told us you had been following us."
"Hey, does this street belong to you, and only you can walk on it?" Leonardo put his hands into the
pockets of his trousers, and asked sarcastically.
"Well, whatever." Throwing the brick on the ground, Summer turned around and walked towards the
restaurant.
If they were in the commercial street, it wouldn't be strange to see him at a party. But on this snack
street? Come on! He lied.
Who the hell knew what he was doing here now!
Summer couldn't argue with him on this, and simply chose to ignore him.
