The evening sun reminds everyone that night is coming. If you have anything to do to avoid the sun, now, be prepared. Just like the dinner plate in the housewife’s hand, the work clothes stuffed into the locker, the last bus, the young men and women sitting in the convertible, driving farther and farther away...
"What kind of place is this?" The young woman's voice seemed a little dissatisfied. She left the man leaning against her and looked at the desolate surroundings.
The young man turned off his motive and turned the woman's face over. Regardless of the other party's doubts, he shaved his carefully trimmed beard on the woman's face.
"Haha!" The woman beat the man's chest and pushed him away, "Stop it! Neil!"
The man named Neil smiled and let go of his wife, Daphne. The two got out of the car and chased each other in a manner very befitting a young couple, running towards the mottled wall courtyard.
"Pai Siying, bus?" Daphne looked at the sign hanging on the courtyard door and squinted her eyes to make out the words. She held on to some scattered gold, "I don't remember there is a bus in Pai Siying... "
Neil hugged Daphne from behind and walked into the abandoned bus stop regardless of her laughter and scolding.
Dark red old-fashioned buses are lined up in the courtyard. The patent leather has left the mark of time and is full of fine cracks. This place seemed to have been cleaned up not long ago. Two men and women who couldn't help themselves after fighting were standing between the buses, leaning against the carriage. There was no dust on their carefully matched clothes.
"Stop! Stop!" Daphne pushed Neil away, slightly pouting her slightly swollen lips. She seemed to realize what Neil meant, with a hint of blame, "What do you want to do! We won't Let’s spend the night here!”
Well, we all know what she's referring to.
Neil's chest was heaving. Oh, that's not fair. Both the young couple's chests were heaving. It's just that the man was more eager...
"Do you dare to spend the night here?" There was a hint of provocation in the man's eyes.
Daphne immediately saw through Neil's thoughts, "Pause! Pause!" She pulled on her somewhat messy coat, and all the clothes she had previously worn were thrown away, with a serious look on her face, "At least tell me where this is. !”
Neil took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and buckled the belt that had been unfastened again, "The former Paisiying bus station." Neil waved his hand helplessly, "You are bored and want to explore, want to find a place Exciting. I think this is a nice place."
Daphne frowned, with anger in her eyes, "I didn't mean to be in the wild!"
Neil's eyes lit up, "We can go in."
Daphne looked at the other person's serious proposal and really wanted to kick him!
"I'm sorry!" Neil's reaction was so quick. He pressed Daphne's shoulder: "I was just joking!"
Daphne glared at the sincere man in front of her. This was a funny thing. She couldn't help it and laughed out loud, "Hahaha! I mean, the things on Lister Street are a bit boring. I want to see new clothes and try new combinations. Go eat at a new restaurant. Instead of doing it in a strange place..." Delphine came here and glared at a man who might have misunderstood.
Neil was suddenly enlightened. Sure enough, men and women have fundamentally different thinking directions.
"Forget it, where is this place? Is it abandoned? I never knew there was such a place in Barton." Daphne hugged her shoulders and began to walk between the buses, looking around curiously, occasionally touching the Cracked bus shell.
Neil gave up the idea of doing something. If he hadn't accidentally seen it in the newspaper, he wouldn't have known about this bus station in Paising that had been abandoned for 20 to 30 years.
"This is where the cult emerged some time ago." He followed Daphne and had already begun planning to leave Barton for a trip to satisfy her 'adventure and excitement'.
"Is it the place where many corpses were found?" Daphne had obviously heard the news some time ago. She frowned, held her shoulders tightly, and leaned into Neil's arms.
Neil hugged the frightened Daphne and hummed casually.
"Why do you do that?" There was a trace of confusion on Daphne's face. Of course, it was more of fear. This was indeed an 'exciting' place for her.
Neil shrugged. It was a 'cult'. How could a normal person understand it? But the current chat seemed to be an opportunity to divert the awkwardness just now. Neil made up random words: "Open the door to hell."
Delphine in her arms pressed closer to Neil, "Let's get out of here." She looked up at the sky. Although she knew that Neil was talking nonsense, the sky had begun to darken from dusk, and it wouldn't take long for the night to turn dark. When she came here, she didn't want to enjoy the night view!
"Yeah." Neil hugged Daphne, and the two leaned together and turned to walk out.
Crunch—
The sound the metal made after being stressed came without any warning!
Both of them turned their heads warily and looked at the old bus beside them.
Swish, swish, swish…
The sound of tight friction came continuously from the other side of the bus! Neil instinctively hugged Daphne tightly, who had begun to tremble.
Just as the two of them were about to quicken their pace and walk out, the bus suddenly moved!
Amidst the squeaking noise, the bus in front of them seemed to be hit by something and shook violently! The aging tires were rising and falling, and the sound of metal bearings rubbing and colliding made the two people's eyes widen! Unconsciously retreat to the other side.
"Ah!" Daphne had already shouted, because just when their retreat was blocked by the bus behind them, the bus behind them also made a squeaking metal sound and shook!
Neil stared, his face unclear whether it was fear or surprise. He placed one hand on the bus that was shaking as if something was pushing it, hugged Daphne with the other hand, and pulled her to run out of the road between the two cars!
Bang! Crunch—
The bus on the left suddenly made a loud crash! The screeching sound of the tires on the ground was sharp! The dark red bus crashed into the two people. Neil only had time to push Daphne out of the lane. His own vision was squeezed by the dark red buses on both sides!
Bang!
The two buses suddenly closed together in front of Daphne who was narrowly pushed out!
"Neil!!"
The cold wind squeezed out by the suddenly closed passage lifted Daphne's hair up!
The fine particles that exploded during the impact hit her cheek directly!
Maybe Ben lost his balance under Neil's fierce push, or maybe Daphne simply couldn't stay standing anymore! Daphne's body fell backwards!
"Neil! Neal!" Daphne's elbow hit the hard ground. She reluctantly raised her body, her bloodshot eyes covered with wet moisture, and stared at the bus! Her voice was hoarse and sharp, and she screamed at the two buses closing in front of her!
"Daphne! Daphne!" A man's voice suddenly came from the bottom of the bus, "I'm okay! Daphne! Are you okay?"
Daphne's heartbeat skipped a beat. She quickly twisted her body and lay on the ground, looking at the dark bottom of the bus. Her man was also lying on the ground. "I, I'm fine!" Daphne's voice trembled. "Neil, come out quickly! I, let's get out of here..."
The sound stopped suddenly.
At the end of dusk, in the moment of darkness without the sun, an ink-colored figure seemed to pass by in front of two buses approaching each other.
When the real night with the light of stars enveloped the city of Barton, the abandoned Paisin bus station was as silent as ever.
