Chapter 1: New Year's Eve
"This bus will depart on time at 5:20. Please confirm the flight and do not take the wrong bus. Please do not smoke or eat in the carriage, please fasten your seat belt. Seat belt, life belt, please fasten your seat belt..."
At the front of the car, a staff member in a blue work uniform was staring at the dead fish's eyes, doing routine commentary weakly. There were thick dark circles at the corners of her eyes, and her eyelids drooped, as if she was about to melt candles, and she looked listless. After finishing talking about the precautions that she had repeated for many times, she frowned and hurriedly got out of the car, as if she didn't want to stay for a second.
The Yin clan was completely able to understand her impatientness, after all... today is the New Year's Eve.
In the traditional Chinese concept, you can do any festival in a year, but the Spring Festival is absolutely not possible! Even if the place where you work is separated from your hometown, or even half of the earth, you have to book tickets two or three weeks in advance during the Spring Festival period, overcome many difficulties and go home, even if you just meet your family and have a meal at home. Foreigners may find it difficult to understand this almost stubborn feeling, because from a certain perspective, it is more like an ancient ritual, which continues in the inheritance of the torch. This ceremony is engraved in the hearts of every Chinese. Every Spring Festival, it is when they have to go home.
However, there are also people like some who cannot reunite with their families during the Spring Festival and must stick to their positions. They are often front-line staff, and it is these people who keep the country operating various basic facilities during holidays. Yin people often express support and understanding of their hard work, because their own situation is similar to theirs.
"Little New Year's Eve..." Yin sighed with a little emotion. He narrowed his eyes and looked around the seats around for a week. The carriage that had not been seated in many people was dead. Everyone was either staring at the seats in front, or lowering their heads to play with their phones. In the dim bus, a very strange smell of nausea that only large buses could be spreading. To describe it, it was the smell of pouring the white flower snake grass water in Laoshan into the pit, plus a little leather smell and the chewing gum that God knew to stick to under which seat, which was enough to make ordinary people dizzy and disgusted, and they wanted to spit out all the food in their stomachs.
No wonder the people in the car looked dead. It would be strange if they would feel good if they were on this bus that was so sorry for various reasons!
The Yin clan also felt a little frustrated, so he leaned his forehead against the car window glass, trying to keep his head awake in this way. Outside the window was a beautiful sunset, and the gorgeous sunset was like a prairie fire, burning the whole sky red. The sun was always short in winter. It was only five o'clock, and the sky was already full of rays of light, colorful clouds swaying, and a peaceful and peaceful scene. Those people from afar who had been reunited with their relatives and friends would definitely feel extremely relieved to see this scene.
The car body began to tremble and was about to leave.
Yin clan obediently fastened his seat belt and increased the frequency of breathing with his mouth as much as possible to adapt to the bad air in the car. Before arriving at the office, he planned to take a nap to nourish his energy. His work is generally considered a night shift, so it would be impossible not to supplement his sleep well.
Just as his eyes were about to squint, a girl hurriedly got into the car.
She seemed to have been running all the way, and in the middle of winter, she was sweating profusely when she arrived at the carriage with warm air conditioning. The girl was panting heavily, and maybe she smelled the intoxicating smell in the carriage, and her face turned pale, and her originally pretty facial features were tied together. She bent down slightly, threw off the huge schoolbag behind her, and made a hilarious and dry retching, but she didn't spit out anything. Yin Clan noticed that she was holding a ticket tightly in her right hand. The ticket itself was a thin piece of paper. After being wet with sweat, she pinched it a little, and basically couldn't read it.
After a while, she finally recovered and did not look at the seats on the ticket. She walked straight towards the seats of the Yin clan, and then sat next to him without hesitation. She threw her schoolbag heroically under her feet, let out a long sigh, and her face showed a happy expression of "I finally caught up".
"Did!Did!" The driver pressed the horn twice, and finally reminded him of the seat belt, and finally left the car.
Seeing that the girl wrapped herself up like a rice dumpling, Yin subconsciously moved her body a little to the right to make more space for her. Taking advantage of this time, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the girl with a lazy look that seemed to be woken up from a dream, and inadvertently looked her from top to bottom. Generally speaking, anyone with a little quality would not get angry about it, but would feel embarrassed because he disturbed others' rest. The girl didn't care about Yin's eyes, she was busy untiring the scarf wrapped around her neck, and indoors, this kind of thing was a bit too hot.
He is 1.58 meters tall, weighs 54 kilograms, and is about seventeen years old. He wears a black-frame flat glasses without any degree, short hair, but has traces of dyeing hair. There are several red hair hidden in the black hair, from the root to the tip of the hair... In other words, she deliberately dyed her natural red hair black, probably to better integrate into the masses. She did not use any expensive cosmetics, only the smell of flower dew... In winter, she
I guess she used it as perfume. The scarf was wool and it must have been used for a long time. She was wearing thick denim cotton pants on the lower body. She could see obvious wear marks on the heels and some yellow stains. This showed that she ran very quickly and stepped into a certain puddle or something inadvertently. She was wearing an old pair of sneakers on her feet, with red soil stains on the soles, and a few small holes could be seen on the soles exposed outside the shoes...
To sum up, this girl's family may be difficult, or she is very frugal. She can't see brand-name brands, shoes, socks, scarves and other close-fitting items on her clothes and pants, obviously she has been used for a while, but she still hasn't replaced it with new ones. In addition... Now it's time to get rid of the old and welcome the new, but she still wears this outfit and goes out, so the Yin clan becomes more inclined to the previous guess.
Not only that, she was very urgent to drive the bus. It is possible that this last bus was very important to her. She had to take this bus back to her hometown in Anji and celebrate the festival with her relatives. But if this is the case, there is no way to explain why she didn't sit in the back row of large empty seats and had to sit next to her. If she sat in the back row, she could also enjoy two seats in a row, one for sitting and the other for placing bags, and her legs could be stretched out. Wouldn't it be very spacious?
Could it be that she came for herself?
A liar? Is it a salesman? Or some kind of superb fairy jump series scam? It would be too hard to do such things on the New Year’s Eve!
The car drove steadily for about ten minutes, and the girl finally recovered completely. She pulled the zipper of her coat a little, turned her head, and whispered to Yin Clan Chao in a low voice, "Hey, are you a superpower?"
The Yin clan suddenly felt as if struck by lightning, and his expression frightened. He couldn't help but sweep his eyes down, and then he saw the pendant on her schoolbag - the special limited edition of the disaster of Kusuo Qi Mu (an anime about the superpowers)! He seemed to suddenly understand something and murmured to himself, "Oh~~~~ This child is a secondary disease..."
"Hey! I'm not a secondary disease, you are obviously a superpower. Don't say I'm a secondary disease like ordinary people!" The girl screamed like a cat with her tail, but soon she covered her mouth and glanced at the passengers on the bus with a panic look to confirm that they did not have any excessive reaction. It seemed that there was six million US dollars hidden in her bag, but she accidentally said it.
The Yin clan looked at her with a little amused look at this skillful denial. I guess this girl is usually deemed to be a secondary disease in her social circle...
"You..." The girl looked at him hatefully, but it was difficult to make the sound too loud. It sounded like gritting her teeth, "It would be fine if ordinary people don't believe me. You know that there are superpowers in the world, but you don't believe me... Classmate, I told you very seriously, my eyes..."
Yin Clan looked at her with a smile, "I'm already working."
"Eh?" The girl looked at him in surprise, because his dress and appearance did not look like a worker, but none of them mattered. She quickly turned the topic over again, "This, this is not important! My eyes... My eyes are very powerful. I can see that superpowers are different from ordinary people! Really, really! You can't even deny it! By the way, hair... The hair color of the capable people is different from that of ordinary people, let me find..."
After saying that, the girl actually took out a mirror from her pocket, pointed it at her hair, and mumbled to search, as if she wanted to pull down the red hair hidden in her black hair as evidence.
"Even if you pull off your red hair, it will only mean that you have foreign mixed races, and it won't mean that you have super powers." Seeing that she really began to pull out her hair in a hurry, Yin clan couldn't help laughing and reached out to snatch her mirror away, "Okay, stop making trouble, can't I believe it?"
"Hey! Don't use this tone of coaxing children to perfunctory me. What I said is true. Return the mirror to me..."
"Your glasses frame contains a certain amount of lead and gold. These elements are harmful to the human body. I think no matter how stupid a manufacturer is, they will not add them to it." Yin clan showed a faint smile to the girl. That was the tacit smile of the same kind after seeing the same kind. "You are wearing such glasses that have no degree but are very strange in structure. The only explanation I can think of is: two natural elements of lead and gold can seal your superpowers. As long as you wear it, you will be no different from ordinary people for the time being."
The bus finally passed the toll station and drove into a long and dark tunnel.
