"Did you buy it?"
A gentle female voice came.
"I bought it!" This was the same sweet "kid" voice.
The strong light struck again, and Fumiko didn't even bother to frown any more. She closed her eyes and waited until she felt a relatively stable light before opening them again.
This is a station with many trams painted in red, coming and going. And his location is very high, and he can see almost all parts of the station.
These are all trams. On the two-way track under the deep pit, there is a red tram waiting to enter or exit the station. On the opposite sides, where the trains are waiting, there are two small iron ticket booths that are also red. In the room, there is a conductor wearing a green close-fitting uniform. He is skillfully counting boxes of coins on the workbench and constantly selling tickets to passengers.
The hourglass where Fumiko is located is placed at the highest point of the station. The light they emit is extremely brilliant, making this red station very beautiful.
A tram facing Fumiko's direction had just started. Behind the car, a little boy ran from a distance and tried to chase the car. Unfortunately, although the car stopped for him for a while, he ran away. I just bought it. He was denied a ticket and was refused boarding. The tram driver waved his hand helplessly at him and drove away.
The little boy who ran out of breath was extremely disappointed. He seemed exhausted. He bent down and held his knees to catch his breath for a long time. Then he got up and walked slowly back to the red ticket office, wanting to buy more. One piece.
However, he dug again and again, but couldn't get anything out. When he was so frustrated that he didn't know what to do, a tall and beautiful sister came over to him, bent down, and patted his shoulder gently. Let him go with her.
The tall sister was very beautiful. The little boy was fascinated by her, so he was pulled by her in the car. He followed her obediently and jumped off the railway track. Looking at the gap between the two sides when there were no trams passing by, they quickly ran to the opposite platform together. .
The little boy was carried up by the tall sister. He looked very excited. Then, the tall sister jumped onto the platform with one hand, and then carried the little boy high on her shoulders, letting him Riding on the back of his own neck and walking among the dense crowd, the little boy had never had such a high view and danced happily.
The tall sister did not take him to the ticket office, but directly carried him up the mountain.
Opposite is a hillside-like ascending route. Along both sides of the road are shops and houses built one after another along the slope. Roadside stalls are so densely packed that there is almost no room for idlers to get behind the stalls.
There are various kinds of goods on these stalls, and the little boy's eyes are opened. He looks here and there. The tall sister bought him several kinds of food. He is holding snacks in his left and right hands, sitting happily. Moving forward together on the neck of the beautiful sister, while eating delicious food.
The shouts, the sound of trams and other sounds were mixed together. The excitement here was completely beyond Fumiko's imagination. What he found even more strange was that his eyes had been attracted to this little boy from the moment he appeared. There were obviously so many people coming and going in the station, with people in all kinds of postures, but this little boy who didn't catch the train, there was something about him that attracted him directly.
And the sudden appearance of the tall girl did not make him lose his attention to the little boy.
Although they were already far away from him, they were going up the mountain, and this hillside was like a display stand that could clearly display all their whereabouts in front of him, as if it was specially designed for him. He seemed to be demonstrating the route up the mountain.
After walking a few more rows of mountain houses, the two of them appeared in front of the tallest house, where there was an entrance to the mountain cable car. The tall girl put the little boy down and walked into a house. After a while, When I came out again, I changed into the work uniform of a cable car attendant. It was a yellow A-line skirt and a small suit, which particularly showed off my figure. Then, she led the little boy to the entrance of the cable car and stuffed something into his hand. When the new cable car came over, she helped him fasten his seat belt and watched him sit in the cable car car for the last time. In the middle, there were two adults on both sides. They closed the door, waved to him, and watched the cable car slide out of the mountaintop station again and set off to the next area.
The tall girl entered her work room, the cable car entrance and exit, and did not come out again.
Both of them disappeared from Fumiko's sight again, but in his heart, there seemed to be a feeling that he was still with the little boy, following his cable car, moving forward together to an unknown place.
The red tram was still coming and going. Wenzi and his friends had been going back and forth for more than ten rounds, and they saw that the flow of people had changed from dense and crowded to sparse. For some reason, Wenzi stared at the platform looking at each other, always hoping to see the little boy appear again. Although he knew that the tall girl had sent him away via the cable car, he just felt inexplicably , he will come back again.
Finally, there was no one at the station. All the passengers had taken the last train they could take. Even the staff in the Little Red Room had left work. The entire station was empty except for The constantly changing lights came from Wenzi and his friends. While flashing, they were constantly counting the time.
quiet.
The station is so quiet, and the mountains are also so quiet. All the vendors have closed their stalls, and the lights in the stacked mountain shops have been extinguished one by one, leaving only the shop signs outside the doors, still flashing lights and advertising.
Along the mountain road, the last cable car, like the tram, had stopped running. It was parked there, blown by the mountain wind, and the sound of steel and steel wires rubbing against each other made the night here feel so quiet. Somewhat scary.
It was so dark everywhere, but Wenzi and the others were shining brightly, becoming the only light in this dark night.
Being watched closely by the darkness, Fumiko felt a strong sense of insecurity. For the first time, she didn't mind being squeezed, but hoped that she would be buried tightly in the innermost part by these sand brothers and not be discovered.
But the huge blades were still pushing and transporting them, especially when he was transported alone to the only "waist" line point again, his insecurity reached its peak. It seems that this second is longer than the whole day. He would rather not shine like this anymore - and he is indeed the brightest among these little friends in the sand. He can't see it in the daytime, but At night, his light surpasses the light of all other friends, so when he occupies the "waist" position, it is an important "time" for the hourglass to tell the time.
