Edda's life on the run (6) Ah, she was full of emotions!The sound of thunder and the smell of damp soil immediately surrounded her, and faint cries came from somewhere, all of which were very familiar human voices.Joan was not in the same hole as her, she was in the hole next to her, and when Ida called her she responded vaguely, as if falling asleep.She had indeed stepped on the soil of her hometown, and that kind of softness would never be forgotten until she died.There was also the rain with a strong fishy smell, which kept falling, and soon her hair was completely wet.A man from her hometown said next to her ear: "Manila, Manila, the fields are flooded." She remembered hearing this sentence from someone just now.At this time, she deeply felt that the people in her hometown had the instinct of quick response, otherwise, how could the race survive in a place that was constantly hit by flash floods?Those who walk at night, how powerful their footsteps are, almost every step is closely related to the pulse of the land.

"Ada, Ada, have you seen Huoshaoyun?" Joan murmured beside him. The music surged in, and the smell of the tropical rainforest became thinner, but the crowing of the rooster still remained, intermittently, crowing and crowing. Joan's stiff, nervous fingers hooked hers, and they stood side by side.drunk man and woman Xiang Xiang helped them go home, and Joan said that they had a long journey. "They're going back to the house with the dungeon," Joan told her. "But my dungeon has no boundaries." Ada said with some frustration. Joan chuckled.Rarely had Ida heard her laugh so broadly.

"Is your boy here?" Ada asked. "Oh, as long as I'm in a place like this, I can hear his footsteps when he's gone. It's always such a wonderful feeling. I hear his instinctive voice." Ada thought that tomorrow she was going back to the farm, and there should be many such caves there too, she had completely missed them before. Ada groaned. "Oh, my feet!" she said.One of her feet was still stuck in the soil of her hometown, and she couldn't extricate herself.Joan looked back at her and said that it would be fine if she got used to it.He also said that you can get used to anything.As soon as the door opened, Ada saw the boss hiding in the shadows.He was lying under a table reading a book, and it was hard to imagine what he could see clearly in such a dark place.Did the two drunk customers lying on the table know that the boss was under them?

"Joan, I really envy your father." "Me too. You know the whole pub is his dungeon. Sometimes I think I'm nothing compared to him! I, I'd better not come out of my bedroom." She went around the counter and went to find Mark.Ada bent down to talk to the boss.The boss spoke first, but his eyes did not move away from the book. "I've been reading this story for decades, and there are traps everywhere in the story. Ada, have you made up your mind to go back? The train tomorrow is at nine o'clock in the morning." "How did the boss know that I was leaving?"

"It's all in the book. When you leave, you'll never find this pub again." "why?" "You broke in by accident. It's not easy to find here. If you don't pay attention, you will miss it." The boss put the book under his head, curled up, closed his eyes, and seemed to be asleep. Under the light of the counter, Joan and Mark stood there in a daze.The phonograph was already muted, almost everyone was drunk, some got up and went out, others fell asleep on the bar and tables.As soon as Ada saw someone woke up, she immediately ran over to help that person go out.The people who were helped were often very grateful, and called Ada "little darling", "little fairy" and so on.The sanctimonious look they had entered the bar was gone.After a woman staggered out of the door, she suddenly turned her head and shouted to Ada: "We were lucky to meet tonight, and we will never forget each other in the future. Goodbye!"

"Goodbye." Ada said mechanically, she didn't even see the woman's face clearly. At dawn, Ada saw many gorgeous butterflies in her bedroom, flying up and down in the light, and emitting letters.Ada stared blankly at them and began to cry.Then she heard Joan jump off the table next door again. Ada walked out of the "Green Jade" bar. When she looked back, the flashing neon lights had receded to the far end of the road.
