Before leaving, Gao Yang explained his last things in Libya. He gave the gun to Abdul and asked Abdul to help return it to Bob and Simon. Then Gao Yang took groliov's money and went home.
Abdul drove a very ordinary car. He wanted to take Gao Yang to the airport in person. At this time, Gao Yang didn't even know how to get on the plane after he arrived at the airport, and how to return home after getting on the plane, because there was no direct flight from Tripoli to China.
Walking on the streets of Tripoli, Gao Yang felt that Tripoli and Benghazi seemed to belong to different countries. Benghazi had been in a mess, while Tripoli was at least very stable on the surface, and everything looked the same as usual.
When the car left the city, Gao Yang met several checkpoints, but every time Abdul could easily pass through the checkpoint. He behaved no different from the local people, spoke the same language and wore the same clothes. If Gao Yang didn't know the details of Abdul, he would never think that Abdul's time to Libya was shorter than him.
After another pass, Gao Yang couldn't help but say, "Abdul, can you tell me what Libya is like? Is this country good or bad, and the people here good or bad? To be honest, I'm just a passer-by for Libya, but I want to know more. You know, I almost died here after all."
After a long silence, Abdul said in a deep voice: "this country is very good, and the people here are also very good. They are very warm and generous. Whether they are poor or rich, they will entertain you with the best, but the premise of all this is that there is no war!"
After hearing Abdul's words, Gao Yang remembered everything he had seen in Libya, including militia carrying guns as suicide charges, murderous robbers and a crowd of angry people. Gao Yang's seeing and hearing made it difficult for him to believe Abdul's words, but Gao Yang knew that Abdul didn't lie because he understood that war, Can change too many things.
Gao Yang thinks it's better for him to care about himself. No matter how Libya is, he is just a passer-by. Although Libya has changed him, he will not have any impact on Libya.
After walking a long way out of the city, Gao Yang finally couldn't help his inner curiosity and said, "Abdul, how do you want me to go home?"
As before, Abdul just shrugged and said, "don't worry, you can definitely go back. Now is not the time to reveal the answer. I want to surprise you."
Gao Yang said with a wry smile, "please, I don't want any surprises. I just want to know how I can go home early. I heard that the airport has been closed and no planes are allowed to take off? But it's really hard for me not to worry if you insist on sending me to the airport."
Abdul smiled and said, "wait a minute. Anyway, we'll be at the airport in a few minutes. You'll understand everything soon. By the way, do you want to go home as soon as possible, immediately, or have patience to wait?"
Gao Yang said without hesitation: "do you still need to ask? Of course, I went home as soon as possible. I don't want to wait any longer."
Abdul nodded and said, "I see. As you wish, you will go home immediately."
When Gao Yang and Abdul were talking, they could already see the terminal of the airport. At this time, Gao Yang didn't ask any more questions. Anyway, the airport has arrived, just as Abdul said, and the answer is about to be revealed.
Abdul led Gao Yang to enter the terminal directly after passing through the checkpoint twice. As soon as he entered the terminal, Gao Yang was stunned immediately.
The huge terminal is in a mess. Foreigners of all colors and faces almost slow down the whole terminal. There is a mess everywhere. Some people are crazy shouting on the phone, others are shouting and scolding, and the cries of children and women. All this makes Gao Yang just want to escape the terminal as soon as possible.
The huge flight sign shows that all flights have been grounded. Gao Yang thinks it is impossible for him to leave the airport.
Gao Yang frowned and said, "Abdul, I don't think I can leave here. Did you make a mistake?"
Abdul sighed, pointed to the panic crowd for a week and said, "look at these people. Did you find anything?"
Gao Yang took a look, shook his head and said, "I didn't find anything except all foreigners."
Abdul smiled and said, "you have to improve your observation. Take a closer look. There are all kinds of people here, the most Indians and Pakistanis, and then Europeans. There are people from all over the world. However, do you find Chinese people?"
Prompted by Abdul, Gao Yang found that, as Abdul said, there were no faces of several East Asians in the chaotic terminal, and Gao Yang also saw several faces similar to him, but those people spoke Korean or Japanese, and none spoke Chinese.
Gao Yang said in surprise, "what's going on?"
Abdul sighed and said, "come with me, you will soon understand."
Abdul led Gao Yang to squeeze around in the crowd to a corner of the terminal, then stretched out his hand and said, "where are your compatriots? You can go there, and then you can go with them."
In one corner, about four or five hundred people gathered together, standing or sitting. They all looked very embarrassed, but no one was crying, and unlike other foreigners, their faces looked confused except panic. Those people looked very calm and orderly.
Gao Yang saw the familiar skin color and heard the familiar language. Gao Yang immediately knew which people gathered together were from China like him.
The Chinese people calmly waiting for evacuation form a sharp contrast with those in other countries in despair. Gao Yang sees many foreigners leading children and pleading outside the corner where the Chinese people gather, while several Chinese people stand outside with a helpless face of rejection. Gao Yang hears that the most they say is sorry. We can only evacuate the Chinese people first, Whether you pay or not, we can't help you.
"What's going on?"
Abdul sighed and said: "I thought the United States would be the first to evacuate overseas Chinese, but I didn't expect that your Chinese would be the first to evacuate overseas Chinese, with the fastest action and the greatest strength. Maybe other countries will also come to evacuate overseas Chinese, but God knows what will happen here when their plane arrives. Now you understand? You catch up with the evacuation. I don't know what you think of your government, but I have to say, you're so stupid Good luck. At least you don't have to wait here like other foreigners, and I know that there are military planes for overseas Chinese to evacuate here. You can go home directly by military plane. "
Gao Yang has a feeling of wanting to cry. No matter how he used to be, no matter how China performed at other times, at least at this moment, Gao Yang is proud to be a Chinese.
He shook hands with Abdul and said, "thank you. Frankly, I didn't expect to leave in this way, but I have to say that you really surprised me."
Abdul smiled and said, "what are you going to do?"
"Of course, it's to go to the Chinese gathering area and wait for evacuation. Anyway, if you evacuate overseas Chinese, there's no problem without a passport. What else can you do?"
Abdul shook his head and said, "no, no, in that case, you may go to Egypt, Tunisia or even Italy first. It's too slow. As far as I know, there will be an army soon. If you want to get on the plane and fly directly to China first, listen to me and I'll let you go home as soon as possible."
Gao Yang hesitated and said, "isn't that good? Everyone is anxious to leave. I'd better line up honestly. Anyway, I can go back sooner or later."
Abdul shook his head and said, "no, I promised you to go home immediately, then you must go home immediately, stand still, don't move, hold back, it won't hurt very much."
Gao Yang said in horror, "it won't hurt very much? What do you want to do?"
Abdul didn't speak. He reached out and waved a knife that came out of nowhere. Then Abdul pulled Gao Yang, and the other hand pulled a long cut in Gao Yang's chest.
Looking at his chest quickly stained with blood, he said in horror: "what are you doing?"
Abdul smiled, put the knife away and said, "let's go home. Don't worry. Your wound is very shallow. You don't even need to deal with it. The blood will stop soon. It's scary to take advantage of your appearance now. Let's go quickly."
After that, Abdullah ran to the gathering area of the Chinese people with Gao Yang, and shouted, "help us, help him, he was attacked by the mob, and he was seriously injured."
Gao Yang looked at himself and felt scary. There was a huge cut in his clothes from his left shoulder to his right rib. Through the breach of his clothes, he could see the wound on his body, and the blood had completely wetted Gao Yang's front body. It looked really dangerous, but only Gao Yang knew that his wound was actually very shallow, very shallow. Even without any treatment, the blood would be lost It will stop soon.
Abdullah led Gao Yang to the outside of the Chinese gathering area. Two Chinese people in suits immediately greeted Gao Yang. When they saw Gao Yang's wound, they took a breath of air conditioning together. One of them roared: "what's going on, what's going on!"
Abdul shouted, "we were attacked by the mob. He was badly hurt. Don't you see? He's Chinese. You have to let him leave quickly."
