Chapter 4: Noel


   This is just a joke. Under the dim light, the delicate bullet seems to have been waiting there for a long time. The exquisite workmanship reflects the extremely dazzling golden light for Cassia. As soon as Cassia glanced at it, she was attracted by its light, and could not tolerate anything else.
   The pace slowed mechanically, Cassia put down his luggage, his head was numb and couldn't think, there was no fighting inside, as if his mind had been completely unified when he picked up the revolver. He bent down and picked up the bullet. The thick palm of his hand held the bullet tightly on the palm of his hand. Then, while his heart "dongdong" jumped forward, he put the bullet into his pocket, where there was still Let him go to Manuo immediately to learn all the expenses.
   The cold bullet touched Cassia's hot skin, and he unconsciously fought a cold war. The vents in front of him were blowing into the cold wind mixed with snow and ice, and the cold wind was not as cold as a bullet.
   Everyone is doing their own things, and Cassia’s appearance doesn't make any difference.
   The food container was crowded with people, and many hungry people gathered there, eager for someone to give some food. Buying tickets is the limit of their ability. Perhaps most people can survive a meal or two, but what about afterwards? No one can tell.
   Cassia walked out of the few cargo boxes under countless pairs of evil wolves, and the people standing on both sides were a little agitated. Impetuous emotions filled the entire cargo box, the air became hot to the throat, and people's faces looked ugly under the light of the gas lamp.
   After the night, everyone's activities come to an end at this time. The hungry body also fell in front of exhaustion, and people fell asleep deeply. Outside the train is a cold ice field, the vegetation has no vitality under the ice, and the inside of the train is also dead.
  Kassia finally slept peacefully for a while, but he was highly concentrated. Whenever there was any movement in the carriage, his sleep was extremely shallow and he could wake up immediately. In order to avoid accidents with the little luggage in his arms, it can only be done like this.
The next day’s sunshine is almost noon. The air vent is the only channel connecting the world in the cargo box to the outside world. The golden sunlight shines in, and a large bright light and shadow are printed on the black steel plate. , A little warmth also spread along the sun into the carriage.
   But this warmth cannot solve any problems. There are more and more people in the food container, and it seems that someone has begun to other people's food, but Cassia hasn't seen this personally yet. But to buy food, the journey is even more difficult.
   The imperial retraining of train attendants to check tickets started at about 3 pm.
   The door connecting the cargo box and the passenger compartment has been tightly locked and can only be opened by the passenger compartment alone.
In the afternoon, the people in the cargo box were still sitting quietly in a daze, and then under the sound of iron chains and steam splashing, the thickened door was suddenly opened, and six fully armed flight attendants stood behind, without a trace. The expression, there is no temperature, like a humanoid machine, and no gun, only sharp swords and ferocious iron rods.
   They started checking the first section of the cargo box and asked everyone to show the ticket stub. Most people certainly do, and a few people do not.
   In this situation, begging for mercy and sympathy has no effect. According to their words, they must immediately make up the ticket or get off the bus. Getting off the bus is of course a dead end, because retraining will never stop and give you a chance to get off.
Someone started to run backwards one by one, but this did not have any effect at all. The third floor of the cargo compartment was completely separated from the two lower floors. Even if they were hidden in the surrounding cargo cabinets, they could not escape the six flight attendants. Carpet search. Some of them were helpless and could only find out the only coins left, and some were crying and begging for mercy, but were forcibly thrown off the train in everyone's horrified eyes.
   When the six flight attendants arrived in the car where Cassia was, it was almost dusk. The people who touched the muddy water had all gone to the last few cargo boxes in panic, and the people who could still sit here quietly took out the ticket stubs when the six flight attendants arrived.
   The flight attendant glanced icyly one by one, and the eyes fell on the human body, which made people feel like being stared at by wild animals. The atmosphere in the entire carriage was undoubtedly extremely cold at this time. People were pale and breathed hard, and their throats were thirsty but they could not secrete any saliva.
   Everyone prayed for these six icy people to leave quickly.
   However, things are often not what people want.
   "Whose child is this?" This voice has no emotions, no magnetism, no emotions included, except for being loud and clear, it's just like a roaring machine.
   Everyone's eyes were attracted at this moment.
   The flight attendant was tall and his head was about to touch the top of the cargo. He held an extremely dark and rough iron stick in his hand. The other end of the iron rod raised the brim of a girl's hat, revealing the girl's immature face of about six or seven years old, as well as exquisite facial features, stunning like a master craftsmanship. His long pale blonde hair was scattered, all hidden in his clothes.
   Her hat is the style that is attached to her clothes, and her body nearly one meter tall is hidden in this gray men's coat that does not fit her at all. Because the brim of the hat was raised, the clothes were also pulled up to a certain height, and the pale feet without shoes were completely exposed to the air in the cargo compartment.
   The girl's eyes are as dark as sister Cassia, and the same color as the endless black sky. It's just that there is no moon in this sky, no stars flowing in the sky, and no trace of light. It is the color of death, the color that all things can have.
   "Whose child is this!" the steely man asked again, his voice beyond doubt, no one could resist.
   "She's just a child..." In the dim car, a woman's pleading voice sounded, faintly like smoke that could be blown away by the wind at any time.
   "Your child?" This is a cold question. When the eyes flowed past, the beast was already looking at the prey.
   "No, no, no..." The woman's back oozes cold sweat, her breathing suddenly becomes extremely rapid, and her pale face turns into blue. She turned her head, she didn't dare to even look at it. The weak body can only tremble in the corner, and then cry helplessly.
   "Open the door." Everyone in the carriage fell into the ice cellar, but no one wanted to stand up.
  Other flight attendant machines usually take out the password card from the bag and insert it into the card slot on the side of the car. Steam and white mist spurted out of the joint suddenly, and the cargo compartment door could be opened by pulling down the joystick next to it.
   "Nuoer, come here." In everyone's glaring eyes, Cassia stood up stiffly, but the short words required great courage and strength.
   The flight attendant did not pull down the joystick in the end, and the six pairs of eyes exuding the icy air watched Cassia step by step.
   Cassia felt that these six pairs of eyes were twelve dark, invisible barrels, as if huge steel bullets could burst out at any time, smashing his weak body into pieces. But until the end, such things did not happen. Their eyes are majestic, giants are looking down at the pitiful ants under their feet, and they are prey that the fierce wolves can't escape. Every step taken, Cassia would have to endure tremendous pressure and consume a lot of physical energy. With each step, the regret that grew in her heart surged like a spring.
   "I fell asleep accidentally, I didn't pay attention to my sister." Cassia said cautiously. He took out his ticket stub and showed it to the flight attendant, and then squatted in front of the girl to take out the pocket of the girl's thin clothes.
   There was no light in the girl's eyes, and she stared blankly at the stranger named Cassia before her.
   "Noah, where's your ticket?"
   Of course, there is nothing in the pocket. Everyone can see this.
   "It seems that the ticket stub is lost, you see that my ticket stub is there, that Nuoer's ticket..." Cassia dared to swear that her mind has never been so dull, and she has never passed so painfully. Although he did not report any hope in the morning, when the fact that the girl did not have a ticket stub in his pocket was truly revealed before his eyes, he still felt the chill radiating from the bottom of his heart.
   "One hundred catties, two thousand two hundred sacred coins." The ruthless words made Cassia tremble all over, the warmth of his hands and feet was gone, only a pounding heart was still pacing. How could a six or seven-year-old girl have such a weight, but the weight in the words coming from behind was not something Cassia could resist. He wanted to defend, but the courage that came to his throat was finally contained in his throat.
   The coin in his hand still retained Cassia's own body temperature, but it was taken away by a hard palm with white gloves, and the remaining temperature finally disappeared.
   The leather shoes of the six flight attendants stepped on the steel plate and bounced until the sound was drowned in the whirring wind of the vent, and Cassia still had no strength to stand up.
He regrets in his heart, he is afraid, he wants to cry loudly, he wants to vent loudly, his temperament is gentle like a kitten who loves to bask in the sun at noon, he can't bear to see the fly that desperately rushes towards the light and slams against the glass window Moths can also be sad. He believes in his heart that he is a weak and incompetent coward, so in terms of words and deeds on the outside, he must be persevering and tough as a disguise.
   squatted there for a long time until his legs became numb, and then his legs lost consciousness. There was a terrifying scream from the car behind him, and all those who tried to resist were thrown off the train.
   No one wants to get up to light a gas lamp tonight, only the bright moonlight from the vents illuminates the cargo compartment.
   Cassia could only sigh in the end, all kinds of emotions were mixed, and his chest was extremely dull, but the regret and dullness in his heart could not dissipate much.
   Until the dawn of the next day, Cassia failed to close his eyes. Under his feet is his precious luggage, but there is already a girl with abnormal weight lying in his arms. The girl put on Cassia's thick spare clothes, and her little feet floating in the air also put on temporary rough remodeled shoes. At the moment, she was sleeping deeply in the arms of a stranger to her.
   The girl slept too deeply, her eyes were tightly closed, and there was no sign of wanting to open at noon. Her long eyelashes seemed to hang under her eyelids, shaking slightly with her low dream. Her nose is very long and heavy, like a giant black whale in the deep sea that can tear the ocean current, and every breath uses up the power of her body.
   Cassia carefully looked at the girl's peaceful face while she was sleeping, and remembered her sister who was already far away in the border. It was still cold, and Lilia was also wrapped tightly in the quilt, lying in a ball next to the stove to sleep, she didn't want to get up. When the early spring is coming, Lilia will also go to school in the small town to start school.
   The girl moved while sleeping in her arms, and the light in Cassia's eyes returned to the cargo compartment.
  The girl finally opened her eyes, and the dark sky now finally has a little brilliance.
   "What's your name?" Cassia's voice was very gentle, maybe it was just because he thought of his sister~EbookFREE.me~, her tone was quiet and gentle, although there was no magnetism that made people addicted.
   "Nuoer." A shallow voice came from the girl's mouth, with the blur of not sleeping enough, she changed to a more comfortable sleeping position and closed her eyes again.
   Cassia opened her mouth, her eyes swayed for a while, lost for a while, and then became extremely clear. She wanted to ask what more, but the girl who watched the girl who slept again could not spit out any more.
   So, in the afternoon, Cassia went to the thin figure of the food cargo compartment, and there was another girl. He was holding the luggage in one hand and the girl in the other, walking slowly in the first few cargo compartments that were getting more and more crowded. The air is full of restlessness, just a small spark can ignite all the combustion-supporting materials!
   Some people are more cautious, and the eyes of hungry wolves are no longer fierce, but endless greed.
   There was no sign of stopping at the platform after the relisting. All emotions and moods continued to ferment in the dim cargo compartment.
  Kassia came back with an ugly face, and the girl Nuoer was sitting next to him eating bread with warm water. He naturally leaned against the cargo planks behind him. There was more food in the suitcase for the next few days. He didn't want to go to those carriages anymore. The eyes of the people standing there looked at him as if they were deciding a prey. So the boy wanted to take a break with his eyes closed, but his mind was filled with the craving and distorted faces of those hungry and cold.
So in the darkness in the corner of the cargo compartment, remembering a slight metal collision that no one noticed, Cassia shuddered and put the brass shell bullet into the honeycomb magazine of the revolver~www.mtlnovel. com~Book friends are welcome to visit and read.
