The police car sped through the national highways whilst Ji Bai leaned against the seat with his eyes slightly shut. The drone from the engine and the wind from outside were white noise as he lost himself in his thoughts.
Suddenly, he felt a heaviness on his body, and when he opened his eyes, Yao Meng who was beside him was placing a pink shawl over his chest with her head lowered.
Ji Bai sat up straight.
Yao Meng looked up at him. "How about you sleep for a little longer? You haven't slept for the whole night, so I'm sure that your body is tired. I'll let you know when we've arrived."
"There's no need for that. Thank you." Ji Bai picked up the shawl and returned it to her.
After receiving orders from the station chief yesterday, the two headed down the highway and arrived at Xiang Chuan County Town early that morning.
