Since that day, one less person participated in breakfast every morning.Before dawn, Song Yaze vaguely heard the sound of the door opening and closing.He knew that it was the movement of Li Yuanfu getting up early, although the movement was deliberately lightened, he still caught it.

Every day, when the door lock opened and made a sound of metal thumping, there would always be a thump in his heart.

Why does Yuanfu get up so early every day?He lay on the bed, thinking in a daze, and then entered the continuous and vague dreams again...

There is one advantage of American universities that makes Chinese overseas students happy, and that is the abundant vacation time.

Song Yaze is a product of modern exam-oriented education.His holidays are either spent soaked in sweat, or spent visiting relatives in the ice and snow.The school has reserved the most comfortable season for school, and reserved the sun and cold for the holidays.

He has just adjusted to the pace of study in the United States, and the holiday is about to usher in.

Xu Yinliang's skin is as thick as a city wall.He held his new girlfriend's hand, smiled smugly, as if to show off: "Yaze, I don't have time to spend with you during the holidays. You saw it too..."

The corner of Song Yaze's mouth twitched, and he said clearly, "Go and do your business."

Xu Yinliang bowed to him in a gentlemanly manner, and left with his arms around his girlfriend's waist.His girlfriend is an authentic oriental beauty with a fair complexion, a slender waist, and round eyes shining with lovely waves.

Song Yaze was happy to be at leisure.He doesn't plan to have a party, but prefers to make coffee and read a book, or sit in the backyard and watch the raindrops on the banana leaves.

The turmoil of life and the inspiration of philosophy make him peaceful.

The backyard of Mrs. Winter's house is covered with round and smooth cobblestones, and the dust has been swept away.It is lush here, the plants grow tall, and the ivy climbs over the fence and stretches outside.

The ground was washed bright by the rain, revealing the white nature of the cement.Song Yaze wore an off-white blouse, barefoot, and the cool rainwater flowed between his toes, very gentle.In this carnival of rain, he enjoys his own loneliness at the round table under the canopy.

Li Yuanfu stood by the window on the second floor, silently staring at this rain-like gentle man.

The rain condensed into water droplets outside the window, and his reflection was reflected in the glass.It was a plain face, dotted with brown freckles.

Li Yuanfu frowned, his heart was scalded.

He wiped off the dust on the skirt of his clothes, and straightened his hat.Downstairs, along the long dark corridor, he wandered to behind the round table, standing there for a long time, silently.

The rain splashed on the man's hair and smock, reflecting beautiful light.He was afraid that he would be cold, so he really wanted to take off the clothes on his body and put them on him; but he was surprised, where did he get the thick and comfortable clothes.

Even so, I still want to reach out and wipe away the mischievous rain for that person.

After an unknown amount of time, his consciousness slowly came back, and he called softly, "Ya Ze."

Because of the sudden noise, the coffee in his hand shook.Song Yaze turned his head and saw Li Yuanfu standing awkwardly, and said with a smile, "Yuanfu, you are here."

"Hmm." He walked forward, his heart trembling with nervousness, "I want...to discuss something with you."

"Let's talk." Song Yaze put down the coffee cup and crossed his fingers, looking calm and gentle.

"In ten days, there will be a meteor shower coming. I wonder if you are interested..." Li Yuanfu rubbed his fingers uneasily and said, "There are a lot of them, it should be very beautiful..."

Song Yaze thought for a while and asked, "Who are you going with?"

"...Just me." Li Yuanfu lowered his head and said softly, his voice like a mosquito.

"Okay, then I'll go." He promised readily, "I prefer to be quiet."

Li Yuanfu was overjoyed and said without thinking: "I...I will be quiet."

Song Yaze couldn't help chuckling, isn't it cute for people with high IQ to be stupid occasionally. "Then have you figured out where to go to observe?"

"I'm going to..." Li Yuanfu was about to say the name of a place, but he quickly shut up and asked, "Where do you want to go? I'll listen to you."

"You have a lot of knowledge about astronomy, and you still ask me where a philosophy student can go to watch meteors?" Song Yaze said with a smile, "You decide, you are more professional."

Li Yuanfu hesitated and said, "I'm planning to go to the Grand Canyon. There are very few clouds, the weather is clear, and the terrain is high. It's the most suitable place to watch meteors."

Song Yaze froze, the smile froze on his face.Li Yuanfu asked uneasily: "What's the matter? If you don't want to, let's go to another place."

"No." Song Yaze shook his head, took a sip of coffee, "What a coincidence, I've always wanted to go there."

……

Boston is far away from Arizona, it takes a week by train.

At this time, the train was still made of iron sheet, and the interior was decorated in an antique style.There is no number on the seat, passengers can choose the seat they want.People read newspapers, listen to radio news, or chat carelessly, and the carriage is so quiet that it doesn't seem deserted.

Train travel is fantastic, and there are always sights beyond your destination.

The bare wasteland, the bustling and noisy city; the endless golden farmland, mixed with farmers the size of ants; the blue river, the half-construction bridge; the lady in fur, the wanderer in ragged clothes... …

The beauty or suffering in the world is displayed in front of Song Yaze like a dynamic scroll.

And beside him, Li Yuanfu was always sitting.

"Yuanfu, this time it cost you money." Song Yaze held a knife and fork in his hand, the rich scallion and light orange sauce made his index finger twitch.

In front of you is a plate of fried fish fillets with scallions, a plate of corn salad, and a bottle of white wine.This is the most expensive meal on the train.In the past three days, Li Yuanfu's purse has lost a lot of weight.From buying tickets on the train, to three meals a day, to tips, he pays for everything.

"It's nothing." Li Yuanfu whispered, but the low-alcohol wine made his throat hot. "Mr. William asked me and another classmate to undertake an experimental project. After completing this project, I can get half of the salary."

"So, you are excellent, and you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future." Song Yaze smiled.There is a German fountain pen hanging on his chest, shaking slightly with his smile.

The iron train has been running day and night for three days, and it is already tired, and its supplies are almost exhausted.It exhaled gray smoke slowly and stopped in Fort Myers, Florida. The strong porters moved water and food into the car, and wiped away the mud sticking to the iron sheet.This process takes about two hours.

The passengers who were stuffy in the carriage stepped out one after another, took a breath of clear air, and drove away their sedentary laziness.

The sun is particularly partial to this small town, and the bright colors make Fort Myers so lovable.It is clear and quiet here, with seawater encroaching on most of the land.There are no back waves in the shallows, and palm trees add a touch of the tropics.

The station is not far from the beach.Holding a map in his hand, Li Yuanfu brought Song Yaze to this white beach.

"This is the bluest sea I have ever seen." Song Yaze looked into the distance.There, the deep blue sea meets the light blue sky.

Li Yuanfu was stunned and asked, "Have you ever seen other seas?"

"En." Song Yaze nodded, thinking to himself: During the period of the Republic of China, transportation was not well developed, and ordinary people were mostly trapped in a corner for the rest of their lives; only rich and noble people could go out to see a different kind of scenery.

"I have been to Hong Kong and other seaside cities before." He whispered.The sun made his complexion pale, and the vicissitudes of the past flashed in his eyes.

"Then... when you go to see the sea, is there anyone accompanying you?" Li Yuanfu muttered in a low voice.

Song Yaze was surprised at his question and turned to look at him.Li Yuanfu was in a bad mood, and he couldn't care less about the logic of the language, so he quickly added: "I mean...the seaside is very dangerous, and the waves are always tall. Someone should protect you..."

"Yes, it's at night." Song Yaze smiled lightly, "You're asking that question...... Aren't I standing here right now?"

My heart sank suddenly.Li Yuanfu was inevitably depressed, but he forced a smile: "...I just want you to have a unique trip, not to waste your first vacation in the United States."

"It's already very unique. When looking at the sea in Hong Kong, the temperature is very low, the beach is dark, and you can't see anything except the lights." Song Yaze recalled, "But it is very warm and sunny here, which is completely different from Hong Kong. Same."

Only then did my heart ease up.Li Yuanfu slightly raised his head and looked into the distance. His neckline was beautiful, extending down to the collar of his gown. "I'm really happy to invite you out to play."

"I'm really flattered by what you said." Song Yaze joked, "I don't know where you are happy because you contribute money and effort. If you want me to say, we still have the AA system! Aren't Americans popular with Godutch!"

"No." Li Yuanfu shook his head resolutely, with a clear attitude. "I already have a job, and I want to ask you."

Song Yaze glanced at him from the tip of his eyes, but didn't insist anymore.He smiled knowingly, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, and was about to light it, Li Yuanfu glanced at his watch and said worriedly: "Let's go back, I'm afraid I'll miss the train."

"Wait until I finish smoking." Song Yaze took a cigarette in his mouth and rubbed it with a groan, "I haven't smoked a cigarette for three days, I'm suffocating."

The smoke blurred the side of his face, and soon dispersed and followed another wave.Under the influence of nicotine, his eyes seemed to lose focus, hanging straight at the end of the sea; there was no one there.

Li Yuanfu wanted to persuade him to quit smoking, but his throat seemed to be strangled, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

After the 3-minute tobacco time was over, the two hurried back to the carriage.

As soon as we were seated, the train started rumbling away.It was refueled, filled with supplies, and started the second half of the journey...
