The train slowly pulled into the platform. Through the window, you can see the crowded crowd on the platform and gradually disappeared into the afterlight. The muggy and humid air seems to permeate the windows, and the glass is covered with tiny drops of water. The hot and dry weather makes people waiting to get off the train upset. They seem to have a lot of grievances in their hearts, but they can't say them out.
Lin Duo keeps wiping the sweat on her face and moving forward in the crowd step by step. Her enthusiasm for City C gradually disappears on the train. There are countless strangers in this strange city, and countless strangers are doing strange things. These Lin Duo are not afraid. Her only fear is the process of coming here. A few short hours on the way made her feel as if she had gone through a whole day and exhausted all her energy. Oh, yes, and this suitcase. Lin Duo looked down at the box beside her. The heavy box was like a shackle that was tied to her.
After leaving the station, Lin Duo breathed heavily in the heavy and humid air, passed through a group of people holding the hotel sign and shouting, ignored the taxi drivers around, and fled to the bus stop sign. She stood the box up and looked back. Suddenly, she felt that the huge railway station, rows of shops, and bustling crowds revealed a sense of loneliness, just like the city, although prosperous, can not let people have any attachment. At this time, the mobile phone rang. It was Meng He.
"Dore, have you arrived yet?"
"I arrived and was about to call you. By the way, have you finished school?"
"School is over. The last one is sports. You know, there is no difference between college sports and school sports. Where are you going to stay tonight? Don't live near the railway station. There are many bad people."
"Come on, look what you said, there are so many bad people in the world. Moreover, the security around the railway station is more strict than that elsewhere. I am surrounded by police patrol cars."
"What you said is reasonable, but I'm still a little worried. When you have arranged your own residence, send me a video."
"OK, I know. Let's go first. I will find a place to live now. I will contact you later."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Duo looks around. There are still many formal hotels. She plans to find a place to stay near here, settle down first, and go for an interview tomorrow morning.
Lin Duo went into a chain hotel, went through the formalities and came to his room. Lying on the bed, she took a long breath. It seemed that a few hours on the train had drained her spirit. She was hungry and wanted to eat something, but she could not eat. It seemed that she had something in her heart that made her uninterested in other things. So she lay down and fell asleep unconsciously.
The loud whistle of the train pierced the night sky. Lin Duo frowned and slowly opened her eyes. Suddenly, she felt her stomach was burning, and a stream of sour water suddenly spilled from under her tongue. She quickly got up and ran into the bathroom.
Lin Duo spits out a mouthful of gastric juice into the washbasin. The nausea still lingers in the esophagus and cannot fade away for a long time. She washed for a while, took a bottle of water and drank a few mouthfuls. Her empty stomach was stimulated by cold water, and the feeling of hunger became stronger and stronger. Lin Duo put on her handbag and got up and went out.
The restaurant near the railway station has closed. Lin Duo glanced at her watch and found that the time was zero. At this time, only some small supermarkets were still open. She bought some bread and water and ate while walking. The night in City C was very quiet, and there was no one in the sky over the wide road. Occasionally, a car tried to drive by, accompanied by the roar, further and further, until the light of the lights was swallowed by the darkness. The doors of the surrounding shops were closed, and the street lamps threw dim lights on the ground, reflecting the tired appearance of the city. In this city, no matter how noisy the day is, how many disputes and hatred there are, they all disappear in the night, as if people all over the world have disappeared, as if this is a dead planet in the universe.
Lin Duo walked onto the overpass, fell on the railing, ate the last mouthful of bread, drank the last drop of water in the bottle, and looked at the overpass in a daze. This southern city is her first stop after graduating from college. Although I don't know whether my major can find a satisfactory job here, I still have an impulse to try here. The combination of yearning and hope makes her have a strong will to go out. Lin Duo looks at the night sky in the distance. The air of City C has long been affected by haze. The night sky is depressed and dark. The stars are tens of thousands of light years away, and the bright and sacred light cannot be projected on the earth. The only thing you can see is the illusion of stars in your heart. Lin Duo's inner longing for this new city is also her inner fear. She came to this strange city alone as a newly graduated girl, like a clear spring flowing into the river from a mountain stream. The future is unknown and full of uncertainties. A gust of hot wind made her shiver. In such an environment and mentality, her heart can only go forward step by step by relying on the chicken soup of those spiritual victory methods. She took out her mobile phone, clicked on the memo and looked at it carefully. It recorded dozens of work places and contact information, which she had found online in advance. Before coming here, she made sufficient preparations. Lin Duo looked around, looked at the city in the darkness, and turned to walk down the overpass.
