"What is the meaning of life?

Successful work and happy family?

Surrounded by fine clothes and food, crowded travel?

At the pinnacle of power, rich enough to rival the country?

I've been thinking about this question for a long time, but the answer is like a drop of water in the desert, the entrance is fleeting, the sweetness of the moment contrasts with the eternity of despair.

Escaping is just practicing the instinct of life, but the nature of pursuing freedom is to keep the soul spinning in the bottom of the heart.

Loss, pain, confusion, and always depressing, but I kept wandering in this cage that I had built myself.

Isolation, isolation, exclusion, and always tiresome, but I have become accustomed to it, like a frog in warm water, unconsciously losing its vitality. ”

On the train from City D to City K, a teenager left that poignant, stinging handwriting in his notebook.

He was about fifteen or sixteen years old, and his slightly childish face reflected a trace of coldness and gloomy expression, which made people wonder and feel a chill from a distance.

The carriage in the early morning is bustling, and the sunlight outside has also passed through the window lattice, shining on the small table in the lower bunk, like a golden ribbon, giving people a bright feeling.

The people in the aisles of the train are already busy, and most of them have gone to the faucets at the junctions of the carriages to wash.

And some beauty-loving ladies still have to wear powder and makeup, occupying the space and not leaving, which has caused dissatisfaction among many passengers.

The boy stretched out from the bed and looked at the passengers back and forth in the aisle, a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

"Goo-Goo......

"Hmph, this stomach is already about to rebel? I didn't eat last night, and sure enough, I reacted. The boy touched his stomach and shook his head helplessly.

He was in the upper bunk, and since it was a student ticket, he arranged it in the upper bunk, so it was easier to get things.

Leaning over, he slowly moved to the place where he put his things, and reached out to tear off his backpack.

"I'll go!"

Because the space on the top bunk was too small, he was of upper-average stature, and when he exerted his strength, he didn't control his body well, and his head hit the roof of the car directly.

"Poof......

On the other side, a frail schoolgirl on the top bunk couldn't help but laugh.

Her actions did not have any effect on the boy, who opened his backpack, took out a piece of bread from it, and ate it quietly.

But this kind of indifferent response is even more aggressive, especially when a girl is treated like this, and the dissatisfaction and resentment in her heart fill her heart.

"Humph!" the girl snorted, stared at the boy with disdain, and lay down again.

Suddenly, the inside of the carriage became invisible, and the atmosphere made the young man's heart stagnate, and the darkness was like a huge black curtain, enveloping the train one by one.

Time passed minute by minute, but the darkness did not change at all.

"Hmmm......"

The young man sighed, and a trace of gloom appeared on his face.

Everything around seemed to be gone, leaving only silence, deathly silence.

"Anyone?"

The boy finally couldn't help himself, and asked softly, not too loudly, but he thought that the schoolgirl next to him on the top bunk would definitely be able to hear it.

When people instinctively feel the threat coming, they will always look for temporary people who are similar to themselves as their psychological support.

No one responded, and not only that, but the bustling noise of the people in the aisle was gone, and even the rhythmic sound of the wheels of the train was gone.

At this point, all that remains of the environment is silence, deathly silence.

The boy became uneasy, and he knew in his heart that this situation was very wrong, as if he were in a dark world without light, sound, and without any life.

Fear, amazement, depression......

All kinds of negative emotions suddenly hit in his heart, tormenting this seemingly cold and resolute teenager.

Not everything was dead, and he could still hear his own breathing, and even his heartbeat, which gave him a glimmer of hope in his heart to find the light.

He sat motionless on the bed, alert, ready to respond to any sudden crisis.

Suddenly, a little fluorescent and blue color floated in the air, gradually changing, getting brighter and brighter, and finally shining like stars, shining the whole carriage.

As the fluorescence gathers, the environment becomes dreamy, beautiful, and incredible.

The young man raised his eyebrows, his eyes flashed sharply, cautiously observed the movement in the carriage, and slowly walked out of bed.

A little fluorescence is like a spark, and after a while, the whole carriage will be as bright as day, and the real scene in the carriage will also be unobstructed.

"Hmmm......"

The young man's lips bit together slightly, a hint of brilliance flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but be curious about the scene in front of him.

The people who were still bustling and busy just now all seemed to be frozen, and they all remained the same as before entering the train tunnel, motionless, and even their expressions were stiff at that moment, perfectly preserved.

A sister-in-law who had just finished washing, holding a toiletry bag in her left hand and a white towel in her right hand, staggered across the aisle, her thick calves bumped into an uncle in the lower bunk, who frowned, his cheek muscles tightened together, and his eyes burst out with clearly visible anger.

However, the reckless sister-in-law was relaxed, regardless of it, with a happy smile on her face, and the expressions of the two formed a stark contrast.

A thin man in his 20s on the seat next to the wall of the carriage, with squinted eyes at the old man who was leaning out on the bed, with a lewd smile on the corner of his mouth, and no one else noticed this detail.

There is also a sturdy man, sweating profusely, eating spicy instant noodles, the expression of enjoyment on his face, the innocent and sincere eyes of the two student lovers, and the warmth and satisfaction in the eyes of the expectant mother touching her belly with both hands......

"Cut, man is a creature born with a disguise, and these tiny details will be hidden in dark corners, and only God can clearly perceive them. ”

The young man sneered, and his grim face showed a hint of mockery, like a god, looking down on everything trivial and real in the world with disdain.

What happened to me? Time and space seemed to stand still, why was I the only one who could move freely? What forces were these people controlled by?

He had countless doubts in his heart, but he understood that this was an unusual force, and all he could do was wait.

As he pondered, the faint blue fluorescence suddenly poured out like the Milky Way, gathering into a swirl, and a swirl of photons appeared in front of the boy......

"Woo......" With a long whistle, a train quickly pulled out of the dark tunnel.

In the carriage, the reckless sister-in-law happily walked back to her bed, the uncle of the lower bunk leaned down, there was a little helplessness in his eyes, and he had fallen on the bunk again, and the thin man in his 20s had a dilated look in his eyes, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he turned his head to the window in boredom......

Everything returned to normal, and the carriage again sounded with a cacophony of words, laughter, and walking.

It seems that no one has paid attention to an ordinary upper bunk bed, leaving only a small notebook.
