Act 11 Suddenly the summer solstice
"By the way, senior sister, what is that gift you are talking about?" Lu Mingfei asked suddenly.
"I almost forgot." Nono smiled and said, "Yes, there must be, but in my original clothes." ”
"So let's go back to the car and get it?" Lu Mingfei said, and was about to jump off the cement platform.
"Want?" Nono shook his finger, "Give me back one and five kisses first." ”
"Now?" Lu Mingfei asked, "Wouldn't the artistic conception be too ...... Hmm...... "Nono kissed him again."
The little devil whistled and walked out of the shadows behind Lu Mingfei, his hands in his trouser pockets.
He snapped his fingers, "Brother, I'll help you sort out your mood." It doesn't matter that Lu Mingfei doesn't have the mouth to respond to him now.
The mist rises all around, like a fairyland.
A shrill whistle broke the silence, and a bright fire burst out of the city in the distance, and it exploded into a flower in the high sky, occupying half of the night sky. Hundreds of streams of light fell, illuminating the faces of the two men.
"Zero-five." Nuno let go of him temporarily, panting slightly, and looked at the fireworks that bloomed in the night, "It's your trick again?" ”
"Sort of......
"Whatever, I like it very much." Nono kissed again.
One firelight after another in the city shot into the sky, like a shooting star in reverse.
It was the seeds of flowers, scattered in the sky, blooming at will, purple sun-like dandelions, falling cyan spider plants, red and gold roses, white dahlias......
The flowers promised by Lu Mingze came, and he used the entire sky as a flower basket to put all the bright colors in the world into it.
The fireworks lasted for a long time, and in this bright coastal town, someone spent a lot of money, and finally a huge fireworks bomb rose into the sky, and exploded at the extremely high ceiling, like a big tree born upside down in the sky, each branch was composed of fine golden points of light, and these branches were put together into a huge text:
“ricardo,happybirthday。”
"Happy birthday, junior brother." Nono let go of him, tears sliding down his face like meteors, "We are really happy to spend each other's birthdays with each other." ”
Lu Mingfei's chest was like being hit hard, at this moment, this girl was sitting on the rooftop with the night wind whistling, although Lu Mingfei was with her, but her figure was so depressed, people wanted to hug her, but not a soft and slender body, but a child's lonely soul.
So Lu Mingfei hugged her.
"Thank you, senior sister, I am also very happy." He whispered in the girl's ear.
"Alright, the hypocrisy is over." Nuo Nuo wiped away his tears with his fingertips, broke away from Lu Mingfei's embrace, stood up and shouted loudly against the mighty night wind, "Please let this time be a little longer!" ”
Lu Mingfei hurriedly took Nuonuo's hand and let her retreat from the dangerous rooftop, Nuono was a little dissatisfied with his fuss and sense of service, but he didn't open his hand either.
The two went downstairs hand in hand, and on the way back to Porsche, Nono suddenly became happy, jumping up and down, like a child. Lu Mingfei said that he used to think that the only way to go longer and longer in the world was the road along the river covered with dandelions, which was really blind, so he was also very happy.
……
……
In Porsche, Nono slowly put a pendant in Lu Mingfei's palm, made of sterling silver, the style is quite simple, just a ring engraved with letters.
"Is that it?" Lu Mingfei looked at it curiously, and it was engraved with randn.
"Hey, what's that tone called?" Nuno was dissatisfied, "I skewered it one by one with my own hands." ”
"It took me a long time, otherwise you think I'm going to Europe for something, learning a craft! The tour is just a drop-in. ”
Lu Mingfei was very moved again, "Thank you, senior sister." ”
"Look, I have one too." Nuno took out another pendant and shook it in front of his eyes, "When the time comes, you will wear one and I will wear one, perfect!" ”
"Put it on now." Lu Mingfei just did what he said.
"Then you can help me put it on." Nono said willfully, and the girl bowed her head slightly in front of him, and lifted her long dark red hair like a waterfall.
Lu Mingfei carefully bypassed Nuono's white and slender neck and put on the pendant for her.
"I'm a little sleepy, go back to sleep." Nono looked down, nodded in satisfaction, and suddenly yawned again.
"Okay, I'll help my sister book a hotel now." Lu Mingfei felt that today was really happy and his life was complete, he stepped on the accelerator, and the Porsche flew out like an arrow from the string.
Another corner of the city.
Mai tightened the windbreaker she was wrapping around and walked down the streets with strange neon lights on the coast.
"What a nuisance...... her mother-in-law grumbled, "and they called me out to make a romantic stinky boy at night." ”
At this time, a phone call came, and Mai was quite upset, and when she opened her phone, she saw that it was the phone number of the Mint Club.
"Hello Miss Mai, we are the Mint Club, can you be satisfied with the service tonight?"
Binhai is just a small city by the sea, and it stands to reason that there is no need for such a luxurious fireworks service.
Green Forest suddenly received an urgent service notice tonight, which was also a large order, requiring them to rush to this small southern city within an hour to set off the fireworks requested by the customer.
Originally, none of them were based in China, so they could only contact large domestic fireworks companies temporarily.
"Don't ask me if I'm dissatisfied! You didn't show it to me! If you want to let it go, you will let it go!" Mai's tone on the phone was so rude, she was already extremely unhappy now.
"Please pay the final payment." It's obviously not the first time that the staff at Mint Club have encountered such a rude clientele, and their voices on the phone are still polite.
"Okay, okay! What is the crooked fart? It's over! Double it for you!" Fortunately, the way she paid was just as rude, Mai scolded and hung up the phone, "Miss Ben, I'm miserable, when others fall in love, I'm responsible for giving them dog food for the whole atmosphere, what is this called?" ”
"Unscrupulous bosses have exploded for me!"
……
……
On July 20th, Lu Mingfei pulled Nuo Nuo and Chu Zihang to meet at the airport, at 23:30 in the middle of the night, the last night flight to the United States, the rain fell wildly outside the porthole, and the city lights were sparse from afar.
Chu Zihang handed him two sets of inflatable headrests, earplugs and eye masks, "This route passes over the Arctic Circle, 10 hours, and you will arrive in Chicago after a good night's sleep." ”
Lu Mingfei handed Nuo a set, and then learned from Chu Zihang to equip the whole set of things, plugged in earplugs and blindfolded, it was dark in front of him, and the huge wind sound of the aircraft engine was also separated, all he could feel was the acceleration and tremor from the seat, United Airlines ua836 pierced the rain curtain and plunged obliquely into the air, passing over the sleeping city.
In the dark, Lu Mingfei felt Nuo Nuo's head resting on his shoulder, and the girl whispered in his ear, "Good night, junior brother." ”
"Good night." Lu Mingfei said softly.
Nothing was said all night.
“tryaweekwithoutrailway!!!”
Lu Mingfei stood in the church-style waiting hall of Chicago Railway Station, looking up at the giant white banner hanging from the dome, and felt like he wanted to cry without tears.
"Although it's to meet Senior Sister Xia Mi......" Lu Mingfei muttered, "but I'm still very unhappy." ”
"Try a week without railroads!"
If an environmentalist would say that, it's nothing.
What they mean is to stay at home for a week, not go far away, save energy, stay away from the noise of the railway station, and feel the quiet beauty of living in a simple place, Lu Mingfei will raise his hands and feet to support.
As long as you have enough cola chips and a Wii or PS3 or something, you'll be fine for a month.
But the banner was hung by a railroad worker from the Chicago Railroad Authority, and the meaning was completely different.
They went on strike.
The specific reason is probably that they are dissatisfied with the high intensity and low salary of railway work, and demand more reasonable treatment.
Lu Mingfei is a young man who grew up under the red flag, and his grades in high school were politics in addition to English, because the latter relied purely on pre-exam raids.
"What a spiritual impact of the strike! How strongly the example of those partners who temporarily resorted to slavery and put themselves on an equal footing with the rich! Every strike gives the workers a great impetus to think of the Red Flag Doctrine and to the struggle that the entire working class needs to carry out for the liberation of the proletariat from the oppression of capital! ”
Lu Mingfei remembered that when he was in Shilan before, during a political examination, he affectionately quoted this passage written by Comrade Lie in 1899 in "Talking about the Strike" to express his support for the strike.
Because he showed good political consciousness with his hatred of all evil capitalists, he scored a rare high score of 92 points, thus saving the students who were struggling with the passing line in various subjects such as Chinese, mathematics, physics, and chemistry. I barely raised the average score to 70 points.
At that time, he did not understand what the strike was all about.
Now he understands that the strike means that the Chicago train station will be completely closed for a week, and the conductor, the ticket inspector, and even the subway's aunt will not be seen. There were only three people in the dead waiting hall, Lu Mingfei, Chen Motong and Chu Zihang.
Kassel Academy is indeed a very powerful institution, I don't know what method the old scoundrel Angers used to convince the Chicago government to open the CC1000 regional express train and operate the train itself, but all the trains have to run on the tracks, without a wrench and a dispatch center, no matter how luxurious the train is, it can't enter the station.
CC1000 feeder express service is suspended.
"Nothing, just a week in Chicago." Chu Zihang was very calm, "Let's find a hotel to book two rooms, if your money is not convenient, I will pay for the room." ”
"We can just go and see Lake Michigan, you take Nono with you, it's the best season to sail out of the lake, and in two months the friendly game between the college and the University of Chicago will begin."
"Two rooms?" Lu Mingfei was stunned, "Senior brother, do you mean, I live in the same room with my senior sister?" ”
"Isn't it?" Chu Zihang frowned and expressed puzzlement, "Shouldn't couples be like this?" ”
"You're thinking too much." Nono sneered, "I'm not good enough to sleep in the same bed with him right now." ”
"Yes......" Lu Mingfei drooped his head.
"Then let's open three rooms." Chu Zihang is worthy of being the elite of the elite, and quickly gave a solution, "It doesn't matter if you wait for a week." ”
"It's not a matter of a week, to be honest, I'm happy to stay for a week, or a little longer, because ......" Lu Mingfei covered his face, "Forget it, senior brother, you don't understand my feelings, this trip ...... Not once on time for me! ”
"Not really, right? You are the "S" class, and they arrange the train class first, so you should be the first priority. Chu Zihang said, "I have been on it about seven or eight times, and every time I enter the station according to the time Norma said, the train is waiting on the platform, checking the ticket and entering the station, and it will leave in a few minutes." I'm only "A" grade. ”
"The first time the conductor said he was wrong and thought I was a "B" grade, and the second time I came back from winter vacation, it was winter, because the railroad was closed due to heavy snow......"
"I guess there should be no problem this time, right? Now everyone knows I'm an "S" rating, right? It doesn't snow and freeze in the summer, does it? I really haven't heard of a train that can't run because it's hot! ”
"This ......" Chu Zihang didn't know how to comfort him, "Forget it, just bend over as a god of decline." Have you ever played Monopoly, it was really miserable when the god of decay leaned over, but it was only for a while, and after seven days, the god of decay was gone. ”
"Senior brother, you didn't figure out the situation, it wasn't me who was possessed by the god of decay but you, you were originally the president of the Lionheart Club, and you became the boss of the mixed club in Kassel Academy, calling for wind and rain and a big man, and you have never suffered from waiting for the bus. Now you're possessed, aren't you? I'm trapped here, too. Lu Ming explained patiently.
"Oh, that's it," Chu Zihang smiled and nodded.
"And I," Lu Mingfei pointed at himself, crying with a sad face, "It's the god of decay!" In seven days, you will send God, but I am still the same decline! ”
"With me here, you still want to be a god of decay?" Nuo Nuo pursed his lips dissatisfiedly, "Having a girlfriend like me, you are already a blessing from your previous life." ”
"It's really a blessing from the previous life......" Lu Mingfei smacked his tongue secretly.
Chu Zihang was stunned for a few seconds, he really didn't suffer from waiting for the train, even if he had to wait for the train, he wouldn't stay at the train station overnight, but would open a suite in a hotel and wait for the station to call him, so he didn't quite understand Lu Mingfei's feelings.
But he thought that he still had to continue to comfort, so he patted Lu Mingfei's shoulder affectionately and said, "It's okay, I don't care about being possessed by you......"
"Forget it, no matter!" Lu Mingfei put his luggage and Nuonuo's luggage on his shoulders, "Let's go!" Let's get out!"
Nuo Nuo was about to ridicule Lu Mingfei for being really a gentleman, and his eyes flashed with gold.
She suddenly pushed Chu Zihang, Chu Zihang was pushed two steps forward, and there was a sound of falling and cutting through the air from above, and he subconsciously opened his arms.
Someone descended from the sky and landed steadily in Chu Zihang's arms.
"Senior sister, you are really a god assist." Lu Mingfei whispered to Nuo Nuo.
"That's necessary, my Kassel little matchmaker is not called for nothing." Nono held his head up triumphantly.
Chu Zihang didn't hear what the two of them were plotting behind his back at all, he and the girl in his arms looked at each other quietly, a pair of clear child holes that illuminated himself, and a ...... Flawless face.
"Hello senior brother, my name is Xia Mi." The girl blinked her eyes and said to Chu Zihang.
Suddenly the summer solstice.
