Chapter 413
I was in a depressed mood, and the shuttle, which originally felt okay, suddenly became thin and a little breathless.
So, passing the edge of a city, she got out of the car. Anyway, this car is not a direct one, and there are two transfers on the way, and it is the same everywhere.
If she can't buy a ticket, she can walk back......
It was late at night, and there was no one on either side of the huge highway. From time to time, cars pass by, one by two, not many, as if they have arrived in a no-man's land.
The world is vast, and she is the only one walking alone in the night. The bitter night wind slapped her head coldly.
Masochistic, the coolness of the body is directly proportional to the depression of the mind, squeezing the negative emotions to the slightest. She carried her backpack and waved her trekking poles for a while, staring ahead and numbly heading towards her goal.
However, as I walked, my whole body became feverish.
The weather here is not too cold, so I can't help but take off my jacket and tie it around my waist, and wear only a long-sleeved shirt on my upper body.
Before getting off the bus, I checked the map, and there was a five-star hotel about four kilometers ahead, and I planned to stay there for a night before leaving. This is a relatively developed economic area, belonging to the third-tier city, and the comfort of the hotel is not too bad.
Compared with riding in a car, she loves the anticipation and sense of accomplishment of reaching the resting place step by step.
The streets are quiet and wide, and there are not even a single tree on either side of the road, and there are all shops of varying heights. And the tall street lamps emitted a faint glow, slowly moving towards the city according to her thin back.
The road ahead was a little steep, and a tricycle carrying goods struggled to climb up. The back of the load was blocked by a waterproof canvas, so she couldn't see the people in front of her, and the people in front of her couldn't see behind her.
The quality of her shoes is really good, and she trotted all the way to the back of the car and reached out to push it.
Pushing the tricycle uphill, she slowed down and continued to walk slowly.
But the tricycle stopped, and an old man wearing a hat and a thin coat walked behind to see what was going on. When he saw a female lone ranger behind his car, he froze.
Haha, Luo Qingyu raised his hand embarrassedly, and almost couldn't help but skin it, and said: Sorry, I'm sorry.
Fortunately, she controlled herself and accepted the old man's gratitude according to her normal pattern. Lifted the canvas and used a plastic bag to fill a bag of oranges from the car for her to eat slowly on the way.
"It looks like it's going to rain on this day, don't be picky, hurry up and find a place to stay overnight. The old man kindly reminded her in words with a local accent.
"Hey, hey, I know, there's a hotel just around the corner. Luo Qingyu nodded again and again.
The chance encounter at midnight, an old man and a young man exchanged a few nonsense words from all over the world, and then optimistically raised their hands to say goodbye and went their separate ways.
Watching the tricycle gradually drive away, Luo Qingyu peeled oranges and ate them while walking, adding a faint fresh taste to the loneliness around him. She eats and walks, and there is a garbage can just a few steps away, so she doesn't litter the peels.
The tricycle in the distance has become a black dot, turning a corner at the intersection and disappearing.
Will it rain? Luo Qingyu silently looked up for a while, and his feet sped up.
Not long after, she entered the city and came to an intersection where the hotel was a few hundred meters ahead. With her goal imminent, she breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on a bench by the side of the road.
Looking around, there is a silence in the shade of greenery.
Luo Qing sat bored, and subconsciously continued to peel oranges and eat them, trying to eat them all before arriving at the hotel.
"Pipsqueak, Pipsqueak, where are you?"
At this moment, a woman's voice was very clear in the silent night, and gradually approached her.
Luo Qingyu was stunned and looked in the direction of the sound.
Soon, she saw an elderly woman approaching her. The other party had white hair, a straight body, and very neat movements, and he was also stunned when he saw Luo Qingyu.
"Pippi?" the old woman called out hesitantly, staring at her, "Pippi, why don't you come home after school? ”
After that, he took her hand and wanted to leave, "Go, go home with Mom." ”
Luo Qingyu: "......"
Pulled by her, carrying her luggage and walking with her. But when she walked to the side of the road, the old woman stood at the intersection and looked left and right, looking dazed.
"Pippi, where is home?" she forgot.
"It's okay, let's sit there and think slowly. Luo Qingyu pulled the old woman back to sit on the bench just now, and then called the police.
When the police arrived, an old man with frosty white hair was also urgently found.
When I asked, I found out that the old woman was suffering from Alzheimer's disease, and her only daughter was married overseas. Her cognition of her daughter is stuck in elementary school, her daughter loves to eat oranges, once ran away from home, and now she must come out in the middle of the night to look around.
The old man followed every night, and sometimes the person disappeared when he missed his eye.
The old woman is in her seventies, and the old man is in his eighties. The body is tough, the old woman has ten years to live, and the old man ......
Since someone claimed it and the police car left, the old couple also helped each other and slowly left.
The silence of the night was restored all around, and Luo Qingyu continued to sit in place, continuing to peel the oranges and eat them petal by petal. After eating, I patted my paws clean, and took out my camera to take pictures of the tall lamppost in front of me, and the dim light.
There are shadows of leaves in the photo, which is especially lonely.
It seems that a scene from the previous life has reappeared, one point is anxious, three points are tired, five points are tired, and seven points are desperate...... "In my lifetime, I lick the calf deeply, and my relatives wander at midnight, where is the child." ”
After uploading, I put down my phone and looked at the street lamp for a while.
Looking at the time, it was already more than two o'clock in the morning, put away the things, and walked to the hotel with my bags again. The oranges were not finished yet, and they walked slowly with them hanging in their hands.
As the saying goes, there are unpredictable circumstances.
There was a crackling explosion in the sky, which frightened the defenseless Luo Qingyu into a jump, his feet were at least half a meter above the ground, and he stared at the giant lightning that swept through the sky with a frightened face.
Then there was another earth-shattering crackle, and the sky was pouring rain......
At the door of the star-rated hotel not far ahead, there are still handsome doormen standing by the glass door. He calmly watched the sudden storm outside the door, and the lightning and thunder that resounded in the night sky.
Winter thunder, it may be cold tomorrow, eighty percent of colleagues who change shifts can't get out of bed, alas, they have to work overtime again~.
At the same time, I was secretly glad that it was good to be down now, but fortunately there were no guests......
was in his heart, unconsciously glanced outside, suddenly his eyes froze, hurriedly opened the door, and the next moment, a figure rushed in.
Luo Qingyu, who was drenched and had a large package on his head, rushed into the hotel, glanced behind him in shock, and then glared at the doorman with a stunned face:
"What are you guys doing here?"
Isn't thunderstorms exclusive to spring and summer?
Unexpectedly, a beautiful woman rushed in, and the doorman smiled dryly, ah, haha, this, this bad weather is not his responsibility, he just opens the door......
Although she ran fast, she was still soaking wet, and the overhead package was used to protect her head from the mines. Although she doesn't remember that she has saved someone's life, she is a thief, what if she inadvertently saves it?
She didn't want to run either, but as far as the eye could see, only this place was the safest recently.
