Chapter 111： subway encounter

Leaving the school gate, Gu Luobei walked straight to the special square station adjacent to Harvard University. Get ready to take the Red Line subway to the show. Walking into the subway, you can see an escalator with more than 200 levels divided into two sections. Standing on the elevator with a very steep slope, people have a sense of openness and deepness of walking into the tunnel. There are many Cast bronze models of subway builders' labor gloves are scattered irregularly beside the elevator handrails. Looking up, you can see the paintings hanging on the top of the gods. When you look up close, they are separated, and when you look at them from a distance, you can cast a picture.

Boston, the oldest city in the United States, the subway was built and put into use in 1897, and it is also the earliest subway in the United States. The subway is called tube in the UK, the French say it, and the Americans say subay, but in Boston it is represented by the English letter "", which is said to mean transportation (n), but in Gu Luobei's personal opinion Come, but it is inherited according to the British name.

Unlike the rush and efficiency of the New York subway, just like the unhurried pace of life in Boston, the subway here is relatively leisurely, and the train and arrival time are relatively random. Walking in this subway station, which has been in use for more than a hundred years, the subway is like an old man with vicissitudes of life for a hundred years, and the people living in the city are like babies in his arms. Many outdated facilities in the subway are obviously a bit unable to bear the weight of history. In the dimly lit aisle, the walls and the ground look dirty and old, look up along the graffiti-covered walls, and the roof is covered with black dust, which is very suitable for shooting thrillers.

Today, Gu Luobei was lucky. When he walked to the railway, he saw the unique three subway cars of the Wanjian extended bus. The red body indicates the red line of the subway.

Although there are only three cars in the carriage, there are not many passengers. Compared with the crowded rush hour in New York, it is a little leisurely to see the leisure of Nanshan. Although the carriage was clean, one could tell it was old. Many of the leather covers on the seats were cracked. 1ù Take out the yellow sponge inside, just subsidize it with electrical tape and continue to use it: the paint on the floor is already mottled.

The door of the carriage is not high-tech automation, but all needs to be manually operated, so when you need to get off the station, you must stand at the door in advance and open the door by hand, otherwise you will miss the station. If you are unlucky, you will also encounter some faults in the door of the car, which cannot be fully opened and can only be entered and exited on the side.

Gu Luobei sat down on the chair, put the guitar on the ground against the sand beside him, then took out a copy of "A Tale of Two Cities" from his bag and started to read. The subway in Boston is not as punctual as New York, and it comes late every now and then, so Gu Luobei is used to reading books on the subway. Even if he goes to a performance today, he still maintains his usual habit of promoting singles.

In the carriage, Gu Luobei was not the only one reading a book. Most people were reading quietly with a thick professional book or novel in their hands. A small number of people were listening to music, and some people were playing games in the newspaper. Crossword puzzles and even homework. If it weren't for the fact that the carriage had been shaking gently, and there was still a low sound of wind blowing through the tunnel, the quietness of the carriage would almost make people mistake it for a library.

After walking staggeringly for a long time, he heard the sound of announcing the station, informing that Gongyuan Road Station was about to arrive, Gu Luobei closed the book, packed his things, and walked towards the door of the carriage. When Gu Luobei stood at the door, he just arrived, but he didn't rush to open the door. The old carriage swayed after braking. Gu Luobei made sure that the car was stopped, then opened the door of the carriage and walked out with the sparse flow of people.

This is the transfer station for the red and green lines, and it is one of the largest stops in Stone, so the crowd is slightly more crowded. Still, it's not comparable to New York.

The interior of the station at Park Station has obviously been renovated, at least the sky board has been repainted, and it is much cleaner and tidy, but the graffiti and mottles that can be seen everywhere still tenaciously show the traces left by the years.

Since there was still enough time, Gu Luobei walked and watched, as if he had come for an outing, which was very pleasant.

When I walked to the exit of the subway station, I saw a man on the right with a width of six feet and a height of five feet.)

The huge poster of , could not help but stop.

The poster with the white background is a cute female cartoon character, sitting on a plain bench, holding a cup of Starbucks coffee in her right hand, with a pleasant morning on her face. Well, this should be a Starbucks ad.

However, at this time, a huge dark cloud was drawn on the top of the girl's cartoon character's head with a black carbon pen, and raindrops sparsely fell. Obviously, the person who painted on the poster was not in a good mood. Gu Luobei stood in front of the poster, looking at the people coming and going around him, his face was blank and hurried. I understood in an instant that the daily life of office workers living in the city repeats dull and boring day after day, year after year. This kind of life lacking affection, even on sunny days, stays in the office every day. can't appreciate it. No wonder that even though this cute little girl had a pleasant expression, someone added a dark cloud that was raining.

Gu Luobei thought for a while, searched the bag, found a red carbon pen, and drew a red umbrella on the right hand of the cartoon character holding Starbucks coffee, and put the raindrops above his head. All covered.

Taking two steps back, the comfort on the girl's cartoon character's face became relaxed again. After smiling, Gu Luobei took another step forward and walked forward.

The Hatch Shell Theater is a famous one-day performance stage in Boston. When summer comes,

Boston is full of music performances, the most famous of which is the Hatch Shell Theater on the Charles River, where more than 80% of performances are held. The Hatch Shell Theater is a 1ù-day performance stage, a bit similar to a music stage, the difference is that it is much larger in scale, and the nearby hinterland is also much larger. much more. A large area of ​​green grass extends from the front of the stage, followed by a riverside belt park with a wide field of vision, which is usually a good place for a rest and outing.

Here, 30,000 to 40,000 people can watch the performance at the same time without affecting the nearby traffic. The audience can even find a favorite corner, sit or lie down, and enjoy the performance easily.

This is also a famous place for melancholy mood. Here, the band stepped into the sight of the people of Boston with a "broad sea and sky".

Therefore, when Gu Luobei appeared on the stage, the voices calling "Evan" and "Bell" from the audience came one after another. Obviously, seeing their familiar faces made the audience very happy.

On the way Gu Luobei went to the theater, the audience dragged him to express dissatisfaction with the melancholy state of mind, "I think I am a character, but I don't attend our performance in Shiston. I hate this kind of people who forget their roots."

Gu Luobei and Melancholy broke up and worked on albums separately. Although there is no storm in the city, there are many people who know about it. At this time, I don't know how the organizer of this performance did publicity and how the news trended, which caused these audiences to complain so much about the melancholy mood.

But as far as Gu Luobei himself is concerned, he doesn't mind continuing to fall into trouble at this point in time, "Hehe, I am able to get to where I am today, but I have accumulated it in the streets and alleys of Boston, and of course, there is also the enthusiastic response of Hatch Shell's performance every time. But it made me unforgettable. With this opportunity for publicity,

Of course I can't ask for it. "These words made the audience next to him applaud Gu Luobei. People with a sense of belonging to the city like to hear praise from others about their hometown. In comparison, the melancholy mood that is absent is more inhuman.

Today on the stage, the sound did not malfunction again. Gu Luobei performed the hip-hop version of "Just a Lou", which was just a prelude, and the cheers of the seven or eight thousand audience in the audience were overwhelming. Every movement of Gu Luobei could create a **** and cause a huge scream under the stage, and the deafening support made the ceiling of the stage tremble slightly.

"If you've ever loved someone, raise your hand!"

Gu Luobei's voice was full of explosive force and affection. All the audience in the audience raised their right hands without exception. Even the pedestrians in the park next to the theater and on the side of the road had their mouths hanging when they heard the hot voice. With a smile, he quietly raised his right hand. The arm in front of me started to beat with the rhythm. I don't know who started the first. The feet jumped gently in the same rhythm. In the rhythm of Luobei, it is like being in the most **** rock concert.

Different from the guitar version at the Hollywood 1ù Tian Theater on Sunday, Gu Luobei's performance today not only moved the audience, but also brought vitality!

The end of the song was almost as if it had been negotiated, "Bell! Bell! Bell!" The voices were connected in the audience. The audience in Shiston sent the most enthusiastic support to Gu Luobei.

Thousands of people called the same name together. The shocking feeling that went straight to the soul made Gu Luobei's heart dangle, and he couldn't help but fight a cold war. This is the charm of the stage. Countless strangers have found their souls because of the magic of music common ground.

After the performance, Gu Luobei put on the guitar and left the scene silently, as if he was just an ordinary student. The audience who only walked by waved to Gu Luobei enthusiastically, and even a few people from the production number held it in their hands. "It's just a dreamy face and gave Gu Luobei a thumbs up with a smile, which made Gu Luobei feel an emotion called satisfaction in his heart.

The performance in the Hatch Shell Theater was still going on, and the night had already enveloped the entire brightly lit city. Gu Luobei walked to the subway station, ready to go directly to the school dormitory.

When he walked to the entrance of the park station, Gu Luobei suddenly remembered the poster that had been graffitied, and turned his head to look at it subconsciously. He didn't want to add something to the poster.

First update today. Thank you for your support, there is a small explosion today, huh, huh. a.
