Chapter Ninety-Five: The Way Home

Suzuko took the train at half past three in the morning, did not buy a sleeper ticket, only a hard seat, most of the passengers in the carriage slept crookedly, Suzuko's seat was in the penultimate row at the end of the carriage, I don't know if it was because of Christmas, or because the time period of this train was not good, there were not too many people on the car.

The carriage was dark, there were no lights, only two small lights were on in the washroom area on both sides of the carriage, and Suzuko found his seat by the light, which was a two-seater, and there was no one next to Suzuko's number, and an old man in his fifties was sitting opposite, who was napping at the moment.

Suzuko wanted to put the box on the luggage rack, but she couldn't move it at all, so she tried several times and failed, when a pair of big hands reached over, "Let me come," and took the box as she spoke, and easily lifted it to the luggage rack.

"Thank you. Suzuko whispered, looking up to see a tall and lanky young man smiling at her.

"Where are you going?" the ......young man laughed.

"Back to my hometown. Suzuko also smiled, forgetting that her face was full of tears, and her nose was blue and her face was swollen, but fortunately the lights were dim and the young man couldn't see clearly.

The car drove quickly, and Suzuko lay on the table tired and ready to sleep, but despite being tired, her brain was unusually clear, and the past was passing over and over again in her mind like a marquee, and Suzuko couldn't stand another burst of tears.

She turned her face to the side of the window, it was pitch black outside, and she couldn't see anything, and the train was running in the barren field, and it would be a long, long time before some lights flashed, and she must be almost to the next city.

Suzuko just stared out the window, the dark night was like her heart, there was no light, and there was no hope.

I don't know when, Suzuko closed her eyes in exhaustion, the train clattered open, gently swaying from side to side, and Suzuko slowly fell asleep.

When he opened his eyes again, Suzuko was awakened by an angry roar next to his ear.

"Stop, you thief!" Suzuko opened her eyes blankly, and the train clattered and stopped at a small station, and the young man sitting diagonally opposite him grabbed a man who was about to get off the train with Suzuko's bag in his hand.

It was already dark, Suzuko didn't have a cell phone on her, and she didn't know what time it was, "This is my bag!" she recognized, and was surprised to find that the thief was the old man on the other side.

"Hurry up and call the police!" someone shouted, and some of the people around him had already woken up, helping the young man to catch the old man and make him unable to break free.

The police officers who came and went soon arrived, and the two police officers took the man away, and Suzuko was relieved to grab his bag.

"Let's see if there's anything missing? Some thieves are very cunning, and have already stolen something, leaving only an empty bag, but when I opened my eyes just now, I saw that he was taking your bag, and I shouldn't have a chance to steal the contents of it. The young man kindly reminded Suzuko.

"Oh," Suzuko opened the bag in a panic, fortunately! The wallet is still there, and the bank passbook and change inside are also there, Suzuko breathed a sigh of relief, "I didn't lose it, thank you, otherwise I would have been living on the streets." ”

The world was so sinister that Suzuko trembled at the thought of the consequences of losing everything, and she couldn't imagine where she would go if she lost her money and passbook.

The young man took the opportunity to sit down and sat across from the bell, "What about your family? Why do you go out alone?"

"Huh, I ...... I'm an adult. Suzuko thought it was funny after saying this, and laughed with the young man opposite.

"You must be lying to me, you are a junior high school student, you didn't run away from home, did you? The young man became more and more serious, and looked like he was going to call the police.

"I'm really an adult, I don't believe it, I'll show you my ID card!" Suzuko was a little anxious, took out her wallet, took out her ID card and handed it to the young man opposite, I don't know why, this person can make her trust.

Li Lingzi...... You're really an adult, haha! You're only an adult in the summer, where are you going?What's the matter with the wound on your face?" the young man handed back his ID card to Suzuko.

"I accidentally fell on my own ......" Suzuko lied.

"Liar. The lad laughed.

"I really kid you. Suzuko didn't dare to talk any more.

"Are you from Shandong?" asked the young man again.

"Hmm. ”

"Me too, we are fellow countrymen!" The young man was really sunlight, originally Suzuko was sitting at the mouth of the carriage, and the faint cold wind passed through the crack in the train, blowing her hands and feet cold, almost stiff, I don't know when it started, and her hands and feet were hot as she spoke.

"Are you going to work in another place? Are you going home for the New Year?" the young man said a lot.

"Well, what about you?" Suzuko looked him up and down, a man a few years older than herself, but his face was still childish.

"I graduated from college and was going back to my hometown for an internship, I didn't want to go back, but my parents insisted on letting me go back, so I would come out after the Chinese New Year. This person did not shy away from meeting for the first time, and he made a thorough turn of his own background.

"College student, I really envy you. Suzuko said, but thought in her heart that Liu Lili should also go to college, right? These are getting farther and farther away from herself, and the university cannot have anything to do with herself in this life, and Suzuko's heart sank to the bottom of the lake again.

"Which city are you?" I'm going to change trains in Jinan, I'm going to Phoenix, where are you going?" the young man continued.

"I ...... Also, Phoenix. ”

"Wow, we're really fated, complete fellow, you don't often go out like this, you don't have to worry about it now, just follow me all the time." ”

"Hmm. Although the young man talks a lot, he is not annoying, Suzuko thinks that he is not a bad person, at least he will not get lost, and he was worried about how to transfer the car.

"I'll treat you to breakfast in a moment, why are you so thin?"

"No, no, no, I'm not hungry......" Suzuko waved her hand repeatedly, but her stomach rumbled uncontrollably, and she remembered that she hadn't eaten dinner at all yesterday, and the nightmarish experience from last night to now had made her forget about hunger, but her body was honest and began to protest.

"Tut, what are you polite to fellow countrymen? We are fellow countrymen, we are all from Phoenix City, you see your stomach is refuting you, haha!" The young man turned around and left, but Suzuko's face turned red.

After a while, the young man brought two fast food lunch boxes, which were cabbage noodles, an omelette, and three slices of red sausages, probably bought from the food truck, and Suzuko's stomach screamed even more.

"The food on the train is not delicious, so let's eat it, and when Jinan changes trains, I will treat you to a good meal." ”

Suzuko took the disposable chopsticks he handed over and asked, "Big brother, what's your name?"

"Oh, that's right, the little girl is polite, my name is Gu Sheng, take care of Gu, Sheng is a flat day above and a Cheng below, this word is not common, let's eat, it's cold for a while." ”
