The train was speeding away, accompanied by the sound of clanging, and the scenery outside the window seemed to be frightened by the sound, and it regressed rapidly, and in a blink of an eye, the scenery that had been seen a second ago had been left behind.
This is a limited express train from Province J to Province H, carrying the hopes of thousands of people on the train, returning home and the future to Province H, which is more than 1,000 kilometers away.
The season of August, it is the hottest time of the year, just sitting makes people sweat, in the closed carriage, although there is air conditioning, but it still makes people feel as if they are in a can, the air is not circulated, coupled with the sultry temperature, the smell of all kinds of food and the taste of some big men who pick their feet are mixed together, it really makes people want to die and die!
Ling Tao sat by the window, his eyes were on the car window, trying to divert his attention, so as not to let himself pay attention to the fat man on the opposite side who was eating and picking his feet, so he could eat, he didn't understand the world of foodies!
The seats on the train are all relative, on both sides of the aisle of the carriage, there are three seats on one side, and two seats on the other, Ling Tao's position is the position of the window on the side of the two seats, next to him is a middle-aged woman, holding a black cloth bag half a meter long, opposite is the fat man who picks his feet while eating, and diagonally opposite is a "successful person" who is still wearing a suit, tie, and meticulously combed in the carriage on this hot day, and it is stuffy like a tank, in the words of Ling Tao's sister, such a guy is not a "manager" It's about selling insurance.
It had only been more than ten minutes since the train departed, and the four of them were next to each other, but no one provoked a conversation to chat, and in this stuffy can-like carriage, almost everyone was drowsy and would not be interested in chatting.
The middle-aged woman next to Ling Tao has been holding the cloth bag in her arms tightly, her eyes looking left and right, if anyone looks at her twice, she will look very nervous, as if there is a huge amount of money hidden in the cloth bag.
Ling Tao had looked at the middle-aged woman beside him before, and seeing how the other party was dressed, he didn't look like the kind of person who had just gotten the money to get on the train. Of course, Ling Tao was not interested in knowing what was in someone's cloth bag.
Thinking of his parents' reluctant advice before getting into the car, and his sister's reluctant expression, Ling Tao also felt a trace of hesitation and expectation for this first time to run away from home and go to a distant place, hesitating because of the unknown future away from home, looking forward to it because after ten years of cold windows, he was finally able to go to the legendary university for further study, of course, whether it is necessary to experience further education to know ......!
Ling Tao has just stepped out of high school and was admitted to the Z University in H Province with excellent results, a nationally renowned university, and this time he took the train on the way to the school.
Thinking of the position he was sitting in now, Ling Tao couldn't help but smile bitterly, originally he booked a sleeper ticket by himself, but before leaving, he was changed to a soft seat by his sister, and now Ling Tao still remembers what his sister said confidently when she changed the ticket, "Brother, you should sit in the carriage, it's the back-to-school season, you will definitely meet female classmates on the train, in case you meet one or two beautiful women, you will make a lot of money, the book is written like this."
"I haven't met a beautiful woman, there are two middle-aged women and fat people who pick their feet, they are miserable by you, see how I clean you up when I go back", Ling Tao said secretly in his heart, but the wood is already in the boat, no matter what, he can only smile bitterly.
Thinking of his sister, a warmth rose in Ling Tao's heart, don't look at his sister who is one year younger than him, she likes to play tricks on herself since she was a child, but she actually cries when she is really far away from home, she still has a conscience, and she decided not to care about her sin of making herself suffer after she went back.
"This little brother, can I switch places with you"?
Just when Ling Tao was thinking about things, the middle-aged woman next to him patted him on the shoulder and said.
Ling Tao was interrupted from thinking, and he was not angry, he looked at the middle-aged woman beside him, and found that her eyes were a little flickering, especially afraid of people looking at the cloth bag in her arms, Ling Tao thought that there must be something very valuable to her in it for fear of being remembered, such a mood Ling Tao understood, and immediately nodded and said: "No problem, eldest sister, you can sit inside."
"Thank you, thank you", the middle-aged woman thanked again and again, got up and stood out, and let Ling Tao come out, and then she sat down by the window, and after sitting down, Ling Tao obviously felt that she was relieved.
"Little brother, thank you, look at your appearance, you are still a student, right? It's so good, who said that the current students don't have a vegetarian zhì, little brother, you are good, you are handsome, your heart and eyes are good, there must be many girls who like it! ”
Perhaps it was because of Ling Tao's empathy that this middle-aged woman had a good impression of him, and took the initiative to talk to Ling Tao, and she was not stingy with praise between words.
Ling Tao didn't take the other party's praise to heart, but he still showed a smile and said: "Well, I'm going to school, is the eldest sister going home or visiting relatives"?
Before going out, his parents repeatedly told him that he could not throw away all his heart when he met people and talk about three points, so Ling Tao just said that he was going to school, and did not say that he had just left high school and had not been far away, but changed the topic without a trace.
"I'm going home, hey~, my family, said to book a ticket for me, but in the end the ticket was not booked, but a train ticket, what do you say is this is ......."
Once a woman opens the conversation, especially a middle-aged woman, it is like eating Xuanmai, she can't stop at all, and Ling Tao only answers perfunctorily to the other party's nagging, and there is really no common language with the other party.
Maybe it was because she found that Ling Tao really had no interest in speaking, the middle-aged woman slowly closed her mouth, and looked out the window with the package in her arms, Ling Tao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, finally didn't have to listen to the other party's indiscriminate bombardment, listening to the other party's chattering speech in this stuffy can-like carriage, it was no less than being in a crazy hive.
It is worth mentioning that when the middle-aged woman praised Lingtao for being su, the fat man who was eating and picking his feet on the opposite side put his feet into the shoes without a trace, but his mouth did not stop ......!
Ding Dong ......, the bell rang, Ling Tao took out his mobile phone and looked, it turned out to be a news message popped up by a penguin, the news said that at six o'clock in the morning today, a 4.5 magnitude earthquake occurred in a local area of southern China, and no casualties were found for the time being.
Casually glanced at the news, Ling Tao didn't care, just felt that those photos were a little interesting, it was a photo of the earthquake center, there was a mushroom cloud-like black smoke rising up hundreds of meters high, the news explained that it was because the mountain fire caused by the earthquake caused a deep forest fire, and it has been controlled.
"Wow, kidney 5, I didn't expect my buddy to be a local tyrant", the fat man who was eating opposite was sharp-eyed, and when he saw the mobile phone in Ling Tao's hand, he immediately exaggerated and said, the other party has no malicious intentions, just like the casual ridicule between old friends, a typical self-cooked.
Looking up at each other, Ling Tao smiled and said: "Brother, you are the real tyrant, not to mention anything else, just the Rittal mobile phone you threw on the table seems inconspicuous, but at least it costs more than 100,000 soft sister coins, and I bought it from a second-hand store for 800 yuan, which is not as good as a shell of your mobile phone."
"Hehe, brother, get to know me, I'm Wang Jun, you have also seen it, I feel uncomfortable if I don't eat for a minute, I can't control it, Z college student, but I haven't officially entered the school gate yet, this is on the way to report", the fat man Wang Jun wiped his hand casually on his body, stretched out to Ling Tao, and didn't say more on the topic of the mobile phone, but poured out his bottom like a bean.
"Ling Tao, Z college student, I can see that you are a blessed person, brother", Ling Tao shook hands with the other party and said.
Knowing what Ling Tao meant to say that he could eat and eat, Wang Jun was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "No way, I just have this hobby."
After speaking, he heard his mobile phone ringing, glanced at it and pouted on the table, and said: "It's an earthquake again, since 08 years, it doesn't feel normal to the south if it doesn't earthquake a few times a year, the majority of people are used to it, and they still report this, who still cares."
It turned out that Wang Jun's mobile phone also received a news message from a penguin.
"You can't say that, no one can control such things as natural disasters, after all, no one wants their house to collapse for no reason, isn't that what ordinary people care about", Ling Tao put away his mobile phone and smiled.
In the silent carriage, Wang Jun obviously had a lot of conversation with Ling Tao, a peer who had a common topic, and was about to say something when a wavy sound came from the cloth bag in the arms of the middle-aged woman opposite him.
"Huanhuan, don't make trouble, I'll be home soon, and I'll let you out when the time comes", the middle-aged woman patted the cloth bag in her arms and said in a nervous tone, and after some reassurance, her waking voice quieted down.
Only then did she raise her head and say in a pleading tone: "My pet dog Huanhuan has been raised for three years, and I can't do without it, so I have to bring it up, I hope you don't sue the police."
Ling Tao said in his heart, no wonder he looked like a thief, holding the cloth bag in his arms, it turned out that he was carrying a dog into the car, and it was found that it was the rhythm of being driven out of the car! The inspection is so strict that she has brought it up, this eldest sister is clever, and I praise her in my heart!
"It's okay, just don't let it out and bite others", Wang Jun didn't care, he replied casually, looked at Ling Tao who was about to say something, and found that she was interrupted like this, Ling Tao actually put on headphones and was ready to listen to the song, and suddenly pouted and glanced at the middle-aged woman a little speechlessly, as if to say that it was all you, so I didn't even have a chance to speak.
The atmosphere fell silent again, no one had any interest in talking, Ling Tao opposite the "selling insurance" still pretended to be deep, the boring Wang Jun lowered his head to eat, the middle-aged woman held a cloth bag with a pet and patted it gently, Ling Tao closed his eyes and listened to the song.
This atmosphere did not last for two minutes, and the dog in the arms of the middle-aged woman began to bark again, and the voice of the watery voice seemed a little rapid and manic.
Although the middle-aged woman bowed her head to comfort, the effect was obviously not good, and the dog had no intention of stopping at all......!
