114. Hi
Enid leaned against a pillar, facing an empty bench.
This is the only place you must pass at the entrance to the train station.
She looked up at the giant clock on the wall. In order to maintain the operation of this delicate machine, the train station had to pay high fees to workers with professional skills.
3:35.
We have ten minutes to get on the bus.
She stopped waiting and followed the crowd to the train platform.
At this moment, she was still thinking about what had just happened. She was not actually angry because of the two people's slander against Hewen. What she really cared about was who spread such rumors and for what purpose.
She was not as angry as she showed, but because there was no time, Enid could only use this method to achieve her goal quickly.
It would be nice if Heven was here, she could tell him about it.
But there's no chance.
Of course, she didn't fall in love with Hevin like Yvette said. Love is a feeling that needs to be taken seriously with all the body and mind. She will not fall in love with someone easily like a child.
But Hewen is indeed a person she cares about very much, a person who is very important to her.
A friend who chooses to save himself without any hesitation.
She was walking among the crowd carrying her suitcase.
In fact, there are not many people who can afford to ride the train. Many of them are middle-class gentlemen and ladies. Everyone has a tacit understanding of keeping a distance of more than 20 centimeters.
But there is still a vacuum zone with a radius of two meters around Enid, and no one finds it strange, including the girl herself.
Enid had long been accustomed to the distance her appearance and identity brought to others, so she failed to realize that the reason why people around her stayed away from her was not because of her expensive and low-key clothes and outstanding appearance.
They just instinctively knew to avoid her.
There are three types of passenger carriages in the train.
The first is the cheapest ordinary box, which has 6 cars. All seats in a truck are squeezed together. One car can hold 36 people. The price of a ticket varies from 20p to 1 pound, unless it is genuine.
When traveling long distances and being in a hurry, ordinary people will not choose to take the train, even the simplest "ordinary box".
The little boy and her mother I just met built this kind of carriage. It can be seen from the material of their clothes and their speech and behavior that their family conditions are pretty good.
The second type of carriage, nicknamed the "gentleman box" by the train station, has only 3 cars and 12 seats in one car. All seats are comfortable and high-end red leather sofas, and everyone maintains a suitable position for "gentlemen and ladies"
Passengers can read books or newspapers in the car with peace of mind.
Generally speaking, for short journeys, the price of a "gentleman box" is between 80p and 1.5 pounds.
The two girls she had just met were also passengers in this carriage. It could be seen that their families were also very wealthy.
Enid herself was riding in a gentleman's box. In order to pay pensions to the knights who died in the battle, she only had the fare money and food money left with her.
But fortunately, she still had to change trains. When the train stopped, someone from her mother would buy the ticket for her.
The third type of carriage is generally called a luxury carriage, but the train company still gave it a unique name - "knight carriage".
Each car in the Rider Box has two sections. Each section only sells one ticket, and one ticket can accommodate up to six people. It is stipulated that the next cheapest ticket is no less than 38 pounds, and there are often cases of hundreds of pounds.
The knight box has a large leather sofa, a refrigerator for storing wine bottles, a dining table for enjoying coffee and afternoon tea, a goose down double bed, blackout windows, lockable compartment doors, and warm and bright electric lights.
Because of the high pricing, the rider box is empty in most cases. Some people have asked why the two carriages are not converted into other types, so that they can make more money.
The largest shareholder of the train company just smiled and said:
"I want to take the train too."
In fact, there are still many people who choose knight boxes, such as Enid's mother.
Although Ms. Elizabeth's salary is not very high, the wealth controlled by her family far exceeds that of most members of Parliament.
Even though they were in decline, the Bailong family still owned a lot of real estate and private property, and these assets fell into the hands of Elizabeth after she became the chancellor.
The woman was willing to pay hundreds of pounds for her private space.
If nothing else happens, after changing trains, Elizabeth will also arrange a luxury box for her.
Enid lifted the suitcase with one hand and stepped onto the train easily. She took two seconds to lock her seat, threw the suitcase onto the partition, and sat safely in her seat.
The two girls I had just met were also on this car. They shifted uneasily in their positions, lowering their heads and praying that Enid did not notice them.
Enid didn't look at them. The girl put her face with one hand and stared blankly at the scene outside the car window.
No one can know what the girl is thinking.
"Sir, no passage is allowed here."
The security guard at the train station stopped a man wearing a black coat and a flat top hat of the same color. His right hand was also holding a mini "little gentleman" dressed in the same color.
The man took out a wad of bills from his arms and handed them to the security guard. He wanted to say that I would be punished for accepting the money, but then he looked at the denomination of the bills and just took them silently and stepped aside.
The man in black walked quickly towards the train, as if he was stepping on the shadow with every step he took. In just a few steps, he covered a distance of hundreds of meters.
However, the train still started moving.
As the internal combustion engine starts, steam rushes out of the cylinder, the connecting rod begins to move, and the steel giant roars and charges forward.
In the train, Enid looked out the window strangely, as if some black figure had just flashed by.
The man in black sighed:
"I'm really not good at teleportation."
He snapped his fingers, and black mist swelled out of his clothes, swallowing the two people.
Enid turned to look at the car behind her, and there seemed to be some sound.
The door was pushed open.
Enid lowered her head in disappointment, it was just the flight attendant.
The stewardess walked briskly through the empty aisle in the "gentleman box".
She stopped beside Enid.
Bang, bang.
The girl covered half of her face with the newspaper in her hand:
"Is there a problem?"
The flight attendant said politely:
"The guests of the knight box invite you to come over."
Enid stood up directly and took the suitcase briskly:
"lead the way."
The white-haired girl opened the door.
Hewen was helping Little Hara hang the polite and pocket coats on the rack. The girl watching this scene felt a strange feeling in her eyes.
He turned to Enid and said with a smile:
"Hi."
Enid raised her hand and waved it cautiously, then quietly lowered it as if she was guilty of committing a crime:
"Hi."
Hevin extended his right hand to Enid very gentlemanly, palm up.
Enid was about to hold it reservedly.
Hewen asked:
"Where's the Fallen Wings?"
Enid was startled for a moment, then burst out laughing, and then she couldn't control herself and let out a series of cheerful laughter like silver bells.
The girl put her left hand gracefully in front of her face and wiped her eyes with her right hand:
Chapter completed!
