After a few minutes, the driver's door of the police car also opened, and a short man got out, wearing a cold-proof suit, and returned to the trailer with the big man.
"If you don't mind, can you open the trunk?" This time it was the short man who shined the flashlight into the car. After seeing the curtain behind Hong Tao, he asked Pawei who was sitting in the driver's seat.
"Open the curtain, Tao, move slowly, don't panic." Harrison turned back and said to Hong Tao.
"Hey, why am I always the unlucky one! What if these two plainclothes policemen see your collections and get excited and pull out their guns and kill me!" Hong Tao slowly turned around and pulled the curtain.
On the other side, he slowly opened the curtain as Harrison said, while secretly cursing Harrison in his heart.
The curtain had just been halfway opened when the two plainclothes policemen had already put their hands into his jacket. Hong Tao's heart skipped a beat and he forgot to open the curtain further.
"Please get out of the car. You must move slowly and put your hands where I can see." The short plainclothes policeman shined a flashlight on the people in the car, took a step back, and ordered loudly.
Hong Tao felt that his actions when getting out of the car could be described as slow motion frame by frame. After finally dragging his right leg out of the car door, he found that his hands had quietly been raised to his shoulders without knowing when. Could it be that
Do you still have the potential to be a prisoner?
The sky was just a little dark at this time, and there were small snowflakes in the sky. Two plainclothes policemen asked Hong Tao and the other three to stand facing the car door. Then one person stood a few meters away holding a flashlight, and the other started to
search.
The first person to be searched was Hong Tao. The short plainclothes policeman not only carefully groped Hong Tao's pockets, belt, armpits, and calves, but also dug a few fistfuls into his crotch, which was so painful that Hong Tao almost screamed.
, Fortunately, there is nothing suspicious about Hong Tao.
The second person to be searched was Harrison. Not only did this old handsome guy have an arsenal in his car, but he also had a lot of debris on his body. In addition to the large revolver that was more than a foot long, he had a lot of items in his trouser legs and on his belt.
He also had two large daggers attached to him. Whenever something was found by the policeman, Hong Tao felt a sudden sting on his back, as if he had been shot.
Because there were too many things on Harrison's body, the plainclothes policeman, after searching Pavey, went back to search Hong Tao a second time. After confirming that he really did not have any weapons on his body, he allowed 3
The person turned around.
What follows is a long period of document verification. Two plainclothes police officers use the radio system they carry to transmit each of Harrison's documents and gun numbers back to their police station or a certain department. Then they wait for the information to be confirmed. Harrison
Both Hong Tao and Pawei were relatively calm. Although Hong Tao had been trying to appear calmer, whenever he saw the tall plainclothes policeman putting his hands into his jacket, his calves began to twist involuntarily.
The inspection of vehicles, guns, and documents has not yet been completed. Two more police cars drove up from a distance. It seemed that the two plainclothes policemen were still not worried about the three people in front of them, so they specially called for support.
Seven police officers, both in police uniforms and not in police uniforms, surrounded the Harrison trailer. However, they did not use any harsh words at all and were quite polite. At least they were calm. When the review came to an end, a young man
The police also had a heated discussion with Harrison about his experience in using a certain gun in his collection. It seemed that this guy was also a gun lover. He was very envious of Harrison's equipment, but he didn't hate it.
After struggling for more than half an hour, Harrison's equipment was finally confirmed to be completely legal, and no other suspicious things were found in the trailer and RV. Hong Tao and the other three finally hung two skis on the back of the RV.
After being re-tied and secured, they were allowed to continue on their way.
"You see, this is bullshit democracy. If you had carried a gun just now, we might have spent tonight in the police station." After getting back on the road, Harrison said angrily, although he had nothing to lose.
, but still resented this sudden search.
"Be content. If I were a police officer and saw your weapons in this carriage, I would be stunned. They are already very efficient and have a good attitude. They did not deliberately make things difficult for us." Hong Tao is very, very satisfied with this result. Although he just
It was a bit scary at first, but the process and results opened his eyes. It turns out that powerful institutions can handle these unexpected situations so rationally and peacefully. If he still complains like this, he will not be able to survive after returning to China.
"I have to pay thousands of Canadian dollars every year for my hobby. This is not a reward from them, it is what I deserve! Of course, your contribution is also here, if you are not a foreigner, if you are not a long-term
If you are like our Indian friends, they probably won’t be in such trouble, hahaha!” Harrison laughed again as he spoke, pointing at Hong Tao for Pawei to see.
"I also think you look very similar to Austin's children. You both have straight black hair and a pair of black eyes." Pavey also looked at Hong Tao in the rearview mirror a few times, and then agreed with Harrison.
statement.
"Actually, in the eyes of us Asians, you white people look alike. It's hard to tell who is British, who is German, who is American, and who is Canadian. They all have curly yellow hair.
He has gray-green eyes and a big nose." Hong Tao didn't suffer at all and immediately retorted with words.
"Hahahaha, I don't look like an American. Pavey looks more like him, especially his figure. Americans are all big fat guys." Harrison wasn't angry at all. He started making fun of Pavey again.
The road became more and more desolate as we walked. Many times, for dozens of kilometers, only Hong Tao and his car were running alone. Countless lakes, bridges, and woods were left behind, and then almost identical lakes appeared in front of them.
Bridges, woods, endless.
On the evening of the second day of departure, Hong Tao finally arrived at the destination of the expedition, Piwonak, after 25 hours of traveling in Harrison's trailer.
If calculated according to Hong Tao's method, Piwonak is at most a village. With a population of more than 600, it would not even be considered a large village in China. However, such a small village in the wilderness of northern Ontario,
It actually has a small airport and a commercial street only a few dozen meters long.
Boss Liu and Austin live in the only hotel at the entrance of the commercial street. This hotel has more than 20 rooms in total. It is a two-story building. It is basically built of logs and wooden boards. It is a wealthy family.
Boss Liu has reserved all 7 rooms on the second floor. This is not because he wants to show off his financial resources, but there are only 2 bathrooms on the second floor. If he does not reserve the bathroom, he will have to share the bathroom with others. This is so
This is something that the great beauty Liu Xiaomei cannot bear.
When Hong Tao and the others arrived, except for their group, there was not a single tourist here. On the one hand, this season was really not a good time to go out for fun. On the other hand, the Indians were holding various protest marches, although no violence was used. , but most tourists also avoid these Indian reservations.
The rooms in this small hotel are not bad. In Hong Tao's opinion, most of the hardware is up to 3-star standards. It is not easy to provide enough heating and hot water especially when it is freezing and snowy outside.
Now that we have a room, don't stay in the car. As for Liu Xiaomei's mysophobia, it doesn't matter. Why don't we live on the second floor? The rooms downstairs are all empty anyway.
The owners of this hotel are also an Indian family. An elderly couple, together with their two sons and daughter-in-law, jointly run this only hotel within a few hundred miles. Their clothes are similar to Austin's The family is obviously different, not so Westernized, and still retain some of their ethnic clothing characteristics, which is more obvious in the old couple.
