45 Emotional Counselor
Because he heard that the temperature in New South Wales is good now, Lin Yilong felt that his "cover" mission in Edo had been completed, so he packed his luggage and went to Sidney with Xu Zhenkun, and by the way, he also saw the scenery of the "colony".
Of course, Lin Yilong does not plan to stay in Sidney, Australia's largest city. After getting off the plane, he courtesically went to Xu Zhenkun's home in Rose Bay to send off the salute, and then visited his friend's apartment in the city center to pick up two changes of clothes. On the way, I stopped by the opera house and Bondi Beach – the city's attraction to Lin Yilong has diminished considerably.
If you don't take into account the opera house and Bondi Beach, as a tourist, you have lost your travel purpose, and this is nothing more than a huge city. But then came the highlight, the Indo-Pacific Express that Lin Yilong had always wanted to take.
The train was supposed to go to Perth on the west coast, but stopped in Adelaide, the capital of South Australia. Lin Yilong has little interest in Western Australia, but he never forgets a small town called Alice Springs and the northern town of Darwin: this impression is a bit similar to Lin Yilong's junior high school English class when introducing the United States, the deepest impression to students is not the Great Lakes region, nor the New England region, let alone California, but Richmond, Virginia, the former capital of the Confederacy; Alice Springs and Darwin, two unknown towns, are also for the same reason, as long as they have studied "New Concepts in English Volume II" , you will be full of curiosity about it.
The preferred passenger service connecting East and West Australia is by air, followed by ships and finally other land modes of transport. It is a very painful journey of more than 1,000 kilometers to cross the Australian outback, which is so harsh that the natural environment is unlivable.
There are always travelers who want to see the deserted wilderness and enjoy the coolness of the journey, and a well-equipped travel train is their first choice, such as Lin Yilong.
Xu Zhenkun has not been to the north of Australia much, and his furthest journey has only been to Brisbane and the nearby Gold Coast, such as Darwin, Alice Springs and Perth, and has never set foot in it.
"Well, if only you were a sister. Sitting on the train, Lin Yilong quipped, "At least looking at the wasteland, there are beautiful women lying next to it, at least there is a rough contrast beauty." ”
"I'm sorry I'm not a sister. Xu Zhenkun smiled, "However, don't worry, you are the only one on this trip, and my girlfriend is on the train!"
"What?" Lin Yilong said in surprise, "So, I'm just the attached light bulb?"
"So to speak. Xu Zhenkun's smile was even better, "'For a lifetime, for a brother!' is what it means." ”
Lin Yilong couldn't answer, so he immediately unscrewed a bottle of pure water attached to the box and drank it.
"Actually, I want you to help me with the staff officer. Xu Zhenkun explained his reason, "After all, we have all experienced some emotional failures to a greater or lesser extent. However, the place of failure is different, so ...... I'd like to hear what you think about Yilong this time?"
"Do you want to listen to a friend, or to a 'Shameless Bastard'?" Lin Yilong asked as he suddenly felt pleasure at Xu Zhenkun's intentions.
"I'd like to hear the opinion of a friend who has been a Inglourious bastard on this. Xu Zhenkun made the classic "I want it all!" gesture, "Please." ”
"My fees are very expensive, so what about the remuneration?" Lin Yilong stretched out his hand.
"That's what you're enjoying now!" Xu Zhenkun waved his hand, meaning the furnishings of this private room, "and our hotel in Adelaide and the luxury box from there to Darwin." ”
“...... That's interesting. Lin Yilong said, "But in the past, I can enjoy the whole cabin alone." ”
How to say, Xu Zhenkun is a bit like a European in terms of body odor, he is one of the few people Lin Yilong knows of who has apocrine glands - even the Yeon sisters and Katie, who have a higher probability of body odor, have never been bothered by this aspect of the problem - for this reason, although Lin Yilong and Xu Zhenkun can be regarded as very friendly, they almost never sleep in the same room.
"Enjoy your solitude, I'm going to enjoy the romance. Xu Zhenkun said, and left with his suitcase.
"This slippery ghost. Lin Yilong scolded with a smile and sent Xu Zhenkun out.
Because from the time they got off the plane, Lin Yilong and Xu Zhenkun's schedules were too tight, although they didn't take much physical strength all the way, even if they sat in the car and took a turn, they were very tired.
After talking to the daughters' mothers one by one, saying hello to Amy, and reporting safety to their parents, Lin Yilong could finally comfortably bury himself in the sofa and wait for Xu Zhenkun and his one to get ready, and then go to lunch together.
“...... Kun and I met at a party in London, when I was studying abroad. Xu Zhenkun's current girlfriend Caroline said at the dinner table, "I later learned that Kun had an Australian green card." ”
Xu Zhenkun's girlfriend Caroline is a "Tuao" with good roots. studied at the London School of Design, and then was given the title of "art consultant" by Xu Zhenkun at a cocktail party. Although there are little freckles on his face, it does not affect the beauty of his face at all-although, Lin Yilong is not interested in this.
"Nothing, even though I've been in London for seven or eight years, I've never liked it very much. "They always say that London's East End is a so-called modern art capital, but I still like the more classic West End." ”
"I also want to go to the West End, but the fare is just too expensive. Caroline replied, "It's better to have more of an art in the East End." ”
At lunchtime, Lin and Caroline "fully exchanged views" on artistic tastes, and Caroline was visibly irritated by Lin's imitation of British satirical commentary, and even "money can't buy artistic taste." This kind of evil language is also spoken.
"I think it's a compliment. "When Usmanov painted his yacht 'Tilba' in a bronze white, they said the same, but people still know 'Tilba'." ”
This kind of rhetoric suddenly made Caroline speechless.
During their two days in Adelaide and the rail journey from Adelaide to Darwin, Caroline and Lin Yilong were only lightly polite, but it was clear that Caroline had lost her enthusiasm.
"Caroline is still very simple. Lin Yilong was on the way to the airport by Xu Zhenkun, so he gave his preliminary judgment, "However, if Zhenkun wants to marry her, I suggest that you still cut off the property, just in case." ”
"I think you're very steady. Xu Zhenkun accepted Lin Yilong's opinion, "Come and drink my happy bar next spring." ”
