Volume 3: Pre-War Comfort Chapter 15 "Bombing the Toilet"
The train staff thought that the conductor had gone to find explosives. In fact, the conductor really went to find the police officer. However, the conductor's words were just to deceive the passengers and scare the people hiding in the toilet. According to his speculation, the person hiding in the toilet might be the terrorist who turned off the train lights or the hooligan who was beaten up earlier.
In fact, anyone with a bit of common sense knows that during this special period, explosives are undoubtedly within the scope of military control. Even if someone really got their hands on explosives, no one would dare to use them openly to blow up a train's toilet. Therefore, when the train staff suggested using explosives to blast open the toilet, they were just trying to scare out whoever was inside. He looked for the police officer, simply asking if he could help open the toilet door. With the police officer with smoke coming from his buttocks present, he wasn't as afraid that someone would suddenly rush out of the toilet and take revenge on him.
The train staff and the police officer didn't know how to deal with each other, only the person who shot at the train lamp was clear about the situation. After shooting out the train lamp, this person took advantage of the chaos to hide in the toilet.
No wonder the passenger who relieved himself anywhere couldn't open the toilet in another carriage, because the person who turned off the lights was inside. He chose to hide in this toilet instead of using the one in his own carriage, which he had yielded to the Kui people.
After the carriage where Kawaki and his men were hiding had calmed down a bit, he nonchalantly exited the toilet and came to the toilet where Kawaki was hiding. Seeing that anxious passenger kicking at the door of the toilet, he confirmed that Kawaki was safe, so he settled down in the connecting area of the carriage to pay attention to the development of the situation.
Because one carriage had no lights, the other carriages' lights were originally very dim, and the connection between the carriages lacked proper lighting, so nobody could see his face clearly, only that he was short and stout, like the legendary Japanese pirate.
When the train conductor came out, he was a bit nervous, but only for a moment. Because the conductor couldn't open the toilet door either.
It wasn't until the train conductor went to get explosives that he took action. The conductor didn't mind one person closely following him, because on this crowded train, passengers often walked between cars with the conductor's permission, which was a very normal thing. Therefore, this person followed the conductor all the way to the police office without being noticed.
The police officer was fiddling with a southern-style special-type pocket pistol in his less-than-1-square-meter duty room when he heard the knock on the door, and immediately hid the gun.
"What's wrong?" The conductor opened the door with some annoyance and asked, "Is there something wrong?" when he saw that it was a train staff member knocking on the door.
The train staff said: "The light in our carriage was shot out by someone with a gun."
The traffic cop knew that the other party was hinting at something, but he thought to himself, "You can say I'm derelict in my duty, or you can say I'm heartless and numb. But with an old mother and a young child to support, even if I had 120 times more guts, I wouldn't dare get involved in this life-or-death matter."
The train staff thought the police officer hadn't understood what he said, so he repeated it again. The police officer then told him: "That's 'Eight Route' catching tongues, we still don't catch rats with dogs, don't go and manage these trivial matters. Otherwise, you'll be treated as a traitor."
The person who extinguished the car lights only then realized that, originally, they had easily taken away the police officer's gun because the other party had intentionally created an opportunity for them to do so.
The train conductor said: "Tongue? Where did that come from in our carriage?"
"That man who flirted with the woman." The conductor said half a sentence, suddenly realized it was not quite right, and then changed the subject: "Hey, I'm telling you, you don't understand. Let's do this, when we arrive in Fengtian, I'll get someone to fix it. Besides, some things are easier to do without lights than with lights."
The train conductor said: "What did you say? The more I listen, the more confused I become."
"Are there beautiful women in your carriage?"
The train staff said: "It's dark and no one can see who is a woman or whether she is beautiful."
"That's right." The conductor patted his belly in agreement: "In the dark, who can tell which one is a hooligan? So don't look at those people making a ruckus, it's just surface phenomenon. Who knows, maybe he'll even grope his own grandma's breasts, or even do her once, not impossible."
This conductor is not serious, so the train staff had to get down to business: "The toilet in that carriage can't be opened."
"How could it be?" The conductor denied: "The toilet won't break."
The train staff said: "The door can't be opened."
"Is there someone inside?"
The train staff thought there must be someone hiding, but immediately changed his words: "At first, I also thought so, but the New Year's Eve dinner can't last that long, so it must have been neglected and broken for a long time!"
"It's just opening the toilet door, isn't it? That's easy."
The train conductor happily said: "So I've come to ask you for a solution."
The traffic police said: "No need to thank me, it's up to you."
"What can I do? If I had a way, would I still be begging you?"
"Are you going to blow it open?"
"This is the beheading 13th, who will take on this task!"
"The police officer patted his chest and said: 'Blow it up, if anything happens, I'll take responsibility!'"
"Really?" The conductor's solemn expression made the train staff mistakenly think they had this privilege, and they stared at each other with their eyes.
The police officer didn't care whether the train staff understood him or not and said, "This little master can't even be handled by me, do I need to report it to the Director of Health?"
"What does this have to do with the Health Department?" the train staff member said inexplicably.
The police officer said: "This eating, drinking, pulling and sleeping is no small matter. Quickly mobilize the masses and blow up the toilet."
"Where's the explosives? Can you give me some explosives?"
The police officer said: "I don't have much explosives, just a little bit. You have a lot of explosives over there, and that hand grenade on the side, I'm worried it won't be enough to blow up the toilet?"
The train staff did not understand what the other person was saying and muttered to himself: "My carriage has become an arsenal."
The conductor beckoned to the train staff: "Come on, come on, let me make it clear to you."
The train staff leaned in close to the police officer, and as they talked, their faces lit up like sunflowers, making the person eavesdropping on their conversation feel that there must be some kind of conspiracy going on.
The train conductor happily ended his conversation with the ticket inspector and returned to the dark carriage amidst the passengers' voluntary giving way.
The man who fired the gun didn't know what the train staff and police were whispering about, but he was sure it wouldn't be good for the people in the toilet. So he followed closely behind them, waiting to see how things would develop, ready to rescue the "tongue" in the toilet at any moment.
However, after the train staff returned, they did not take any measures regarding the toilet. It wasn't until a passenger walked over and, in front of the train staff, pulled out his penis and started urinating through the wide gap under the toilet door that the person who had been shooting suddenly realized what was happening.
