Chapter 2133: Chapter 2133: Eighteenth Coming-of-Age Ceremony (15)
How could this happen?
They clearly hit someone; Ruan Jiaojiao bent down in disbelief, trying to see if anything was stuck under the front wheel, but there was still nothing.
At this moment, Yu Rou also cautiously opened her eyes. She first looked at the car hood, saw nothing, then opened the car door and did the same action as Ruan Jiaojiao, bending down to look under the wheels.
But there was still nothing.
How could this be possible?
Could it be that they saw a ghost?
The two of them exchanged a glance, and the possibility flashed through their minds simultaneously. Ruan Jiaojiao’s face was even paler than Yu Rou’s because she was more aware of the existence of those things than anyone else.
"Jiaojiao, what should we do now?" Although Yu Rou was older than Ruan Jiaojiao, she had been pampered since childhood and was now at a loss, subconsciously asking Ruan Jiaojiao.
Ruan Jiaojiao steadied herself and said, "You should call the police first."
"Huh? We still need to call the police?" Yu Rou was a little scared.
Ruan Jiaojiao looked at her, "Of course, whether or not we hit someone, we have to call the police. That’s common knowledge."
Yu Rou nodded, turned around to the driver’s seat to get her phone, and a kind old lady nearby said to Ruan Jiaojiao, "Young girl, are you alright? Do you need help to call 120?"
Ruan Jiaojiao immediately shook her head, smiling gratefully, "No need, Auntie, we’re fine."
Ruan Jiaojiao wanted to say a few more words of thanks, but just at this moment, her phone, which she had dropped under the passenger seat due to the fright, started ringing, and Ruan Jiaojiao quickly opened the car door to answer it.
"Brother Xi?" She answered the call.
"Where are you?" Duan Xi on the other side asked, his tone somewhat off.
Ruan Jiaojiao managed to hold it together and could direct Yu Rou to call the police, but hearing Duan Xi’s voice, she unconsciously weakened, speaking softly with a bit of grievance, "On Whiton Road here, we had a minor car accident, and the front of the car is dented."
As soon as these words came out, there was an immediate "bang" from Duan Xi’s side, and Ruan Jiaojiao vaguely heard someone else calling his name.
Ruan Jiaojiao guessed he must be rushing over, and immediately said, "Brother Xi, I’m not injured, we’re all okay, don’t worry."
"Stay where you are, don’t move, I’m coming over right now." Duan Xi’s voice sounded a bit breathless, likely because he started running, and then the call was disconnected.
Ruan Jiaojiao pursed her lips, put the phone back in her pocket, and turned to ask Yu Rou, who had finished with the police call on the other side, "You aren’t hurt, are you?"
Yu Rou hadn’t recovered yet, shook her head at the words, and crouched next to the car, not exaggerating to say that her arms and legs were like jelly.
Ruan Jiaojiao went over to her, crouching on the ground with her.
The people around hadn’t left, still watching the commotion, and Ruan Jiaojiao leaned in closer to Yu Rou and asked in a low voice, "Xiaorou, earlier a kid suddenly appeared, you saw it too, right?"
Yu Rou nodded with lingering fear, her eyes full of doubt, "Yes, I saw it, and the car clearly hit it, so why is it gone?"
She paused here, couldn’t help rubbing her arms, "Could we have encountered a ghost in broad daylight?"
Ruan Jiaojiao shook her head, recalling that scene in her mind, lowered her gaze without speaking, planning to discuss it with Duan Xi once he arrived.
About ten minutes later, the traffic police arrived first.
Two traffic officers around forty years old rode over on motorcycles.
