Chapter 313: Dead
After walking out of the square, I returned to the flower shop and found that the three people were helping the clerk remove the thorns from the bouquets with skillful techniques.
Seeing her coming, William smiled and said: "She came just in time, we are talking about the aurora tonight."
Tang Guanqi rolled up his sleeves, glanced at the order requirements recorded by Xiao Li, and began to comment: "Can Sijing really see the aurora tonight?"
William carefully read all the information that could confirm the aurora: "Yes, if the aurora forecast is accurate."
After thinking about it for a while, he said: "We will stay in Skjung for one night. If we see the aurora, we are lucky. If we can't see it, it doesn't matter. We can go to Kiruna to see it. If we see it, we won't go to Kiruna. Northern Europe is too It’s cold, one less day is a day.”
"Otherwise, if you see the aurora tonight, buy a ticket to the Czech Republic in advance and go see Prague." Xiao Li suggested with bright eyes.
Tang Guanqi thought for a while: "This is a good suggestion."
Seeing all three people nodding, Xiao Li was happy and looked up outside: "Hey, it's almost dark, it's only about three o'clock in the afternoon."
She asked the store manager: "Does that mean we will see the aurora soon?"
The store manager smiled and reminded them that the clouds were a bit thick today and they might not be able to see it, so they had to be mentally prepared, but if they could see it, it would be easier to see it at Lappis Beach.
The four people were a little disappointed when they heard this.
But yes, today's clouds are a bit thick, and they move very fast and low, and they are hanging on the roof of the building.
Tang Guanqi looked outside. It was still daytime just now, but not long after she came in, it was already dusk.
Dots of lights lit up the streets, but it wasn't completely dark yet.
It was as if two worlds were torn apart from what had just happened.
The clerk suddenly put down what he was doing and ran out. Tang Guanqi asked puzzledly: "What's wrong?"
The store manager also looked outside: "It's a mother-of-pearl cloud, a celestial phenomenon even rarer than the aurora!"
The other party spoke very urgently and with an accent that Tang Guanqi couldn't understand, but even the locals were shocked. It must be extremely rare.
The four people immediately ran outside to take a look and saw brilliant colors appearing in the sky.
This kind of color is just like the auspicious clouds that the gods ride on in the 1986 version of Journey to the West, like a flowing river of color. It can be so obvious during the day, flowing on the sky like a special effect.
It's like a colorful grating on the inside of a white shell, and the color is getting thicker and thicker, until it finally looks like an exotic blanket of colorful patterns.
Tang Guanqi and the others were all shocked. They were speechless by the beauty. The surprise they had prepared to marvel at the aurora was taken away by the sudden nacre cloud. It was even more beautiful than the aurora photos they saw on their mobile phones. It was easy to tell which one was which one. Even more shocking.
William, who reacted first, quickly took a few photos and asked the shop owner to take a group photo for them.
Tang Guanqi's eyes couldn't bear to leave the sky. It was so beautiful that it was more exciting than the aurora, even though she had never heard of nacreous clouds before.
Four young people of the same age held hands with smiles on their faces, and the brightness of the sky was reflected on their faces.
Duo Yishi is wearing William's ring, Tang Guanqi is wearing Xiao Li's scarf, William's clothes have Xiao Li's anti-lost phone number written with a marker, and Xiao Li is wearing Duo Yishi's woolen hat.
The four of them mixed together, but blended into one, sniffing and holding back the cold.
Tang Guanqi's fair and handsome face was a little more heroic because of this bright light, or her eyes had changed. Standing in the middle of the four people, although she was young, she looked reliable and firm, and Xiao Li looked like a little girl. She leaned against her like a sister.
She and Duo Yishi were holding Duo Yishi's arm, not her.
The photo clicked, and the four young people were wrapped in clouds, as if they had gone to a different world, a strange world like Hogwarts.
William got a Chinese explanation of the celestial phenomenon on chatgpt: "This thing is called nacreous cloud, which is a polar stratospheric cloud. It only appears in high latitudes. Its rainbow-like colors come from tiny ice crystals or nitric acid trihydrate in the thin clouds at very high levels." Diffraction of sunlight by crystals ”
Xiao Li stopped: "Okay, I won't understand Chinese anymore."
Tang Guanqi looked up. If someone had told her a year ago that she would see nacreous clouds in Sweden in a year, she would never have believed it. At that time, she would have paid more than a dozen yuan for the bus ride, and she could only see it. I have one-third of an acre of land, but I don’t know what nacre is.
Xiao Li chattered and finally gave a more poetic name: "This shouldn't be called Mother of Pearl Cloud. I saw it should be called Colorful Auspicious Cloud."
When she wanted to say something more, she immediately became angry: "If you recite poetry here, I will kill you."
One more thing, he reluctantly took back what he was about to say.
The nacreous cloud lasted for almost half an hour. The shop owner lamented that they were really lucky. Local people in their area didn't have many opportunities to see nacreous cloud. The prototype of the famous painting "The Scream" is nacreous cloud.
Tang Guanqi and the others also felt that their visit to Sijing was a complete success. Even if they could not see the aurora, they were already satisfied.
After all, this is a rarer celestial phenomenon than the aurora, and they managed to capture it. Not only did they watch it, they also took hundreds of photos.
Several people no longer regretted that they might not be able to see the aurora, and happily helped the florist arrange the flowers.
The lights in the flower shop were gradually turned on and the glass doors were closed. The floor was so warm that it seemed to fog up the glass.
The manager of the branch invited them to have dinner together. The presentation was of course a little worse than eating out, but it was very rich. There were Swedish farm dishes, fried potato cubes with sausages, sprinkled with some onions, a large pot of red wine stewed beef, and There were herring salad, canned herring, herring and shrimp sandwiches, and other indiscernible dishes, filling a large table.
After coming here, Tang Guanqi felt that he had eaten all the herrings in his life.
It was hot, and my whole body felt warm after eating. The clerks went back to the backyard or upstairs to chat and drink. Tang Guanqi and his party did not dare to drink, fearing that they would fall asleep and die of coldness after waiting for the aurora in the ice and snow, and being drunk again.
When it was almost nine o'clock, the four of them held hands and went out despite the cold weather and warm babies. It was almost twelve o'clock and they didn't see it. Fortunately, the compatriots in Aurora shared the self-heating hot pot with them and invited them. Sit down and wait together.
Xiao Li ate the steaming noodles and shared her bag of warm noodles with kind-hearted compatriots, but she smiled:
"It seems that I can't buy a ticket to the Czech Republic now. I have to go to Kiruna."
The other party smiled and said: "It's not bad to go to Kiruna. You can see more clearly in the snowy fields. I have already seen nacreous clouds today. If I see the aurora again, I will have to find a lottery station in Sweden to buy a lottery ticket."
Suddenly, there was an exclamation not far away. The group of people all looked over and followed their gaze to the sky, only to find that the aurora had appeared at some point. Tang Guanqi's eyes also moved to the sky. It was far away and looked faint, but the green was so pure that it seemed as if there was no earthly matter, as if it came from the universe or outer space.
The world suddenly became very quiet, and the aurora captured with a mobile phone was even more eerie and intense than what could be seen with the naked eye.
But what you can see with the naked eye is even quieter. The four people are not as noisy as they were in the evening, they just watch quietly.
It was Xiao Li who took the initiative to ask the compatriot who invited them to eat self-heating hot pot if he could take a group photo for them. The other person said sure, and began to spread his legs and adjust his posture, preparing to take pictures for them.
The four of them sat together and took a photo.
Looking up at the aurora, the area has begun to become larger and larger, more and more dense, so illusory and cold, but also so strong and bright, like a rain of souls.
The things I once cared about and cared about seemed to have become a wisp of green smoke and melted into the dark night.
Tang Guanqi had an inexplicable feeling that everything on this journey was perfect.
The aurora lasted until one o'clock, and the four of them returned with their arms around each other contentedly.
At night, the four of them slept on a big bed, which was originally Duo Yishi and William's bed. Tang Guanqi and Xiao Li came to visit, and they lay down together. Anyway, the bed was really big, and it was enough to sleep four more.
Xiao Li suddenly remembered: "Then can we go directly to Prague, Czech Republic?"
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
Before the three people could answer, she excitedly took out her mobile phone: "Book tickets, book tickets!"
Tang Guanqi smiled in the darkness.
But she also took out her phone to look at the tickets.
The next day they took a walk around Sijing again. In fact, their trip to Sijing was complete, but the flight was in the afternoon and they had to wait.
After entering the airport and printing the ticket, Xiao Li suddenly said: "Hey, there is a KFC in the airport. Let me buy you an ice cream. I wanted to treat you to it in Germany, but you didn't want it, but I have it now. Money.”
Tang Guanqi trusted her enough now, unlike before when he was afraid of her drugging him. He nodded, and Xiao Li ran to KFC with joy.
While William was going to the bathroom, Duo Yishi suddenly answered the phone, his expression becoming more and more serious: "I have some matters at the bar to deal with. You wait for me here."
Tang Guanqi nodded and walked to a quiet place to answer the phone.
She didn't sit there for long when she also received a call. This was the first time she received a call from this new phone number. Tang Guanqi picked it up and found that it was an airline call.
The other party reminded her that her flight was delayed today and asked her if she wanted to change her flight.
She was surprised and looked at the big screen at the airport. The flight she took was still displayed normally: "Are you sure?"
I checked the weather today and it was clear that the voyage from Sijing to the Czech Republic was smooth sailing.
And they have all booked their tickets.
The other party answered in the affirmative.
Tang Guanqi had no choice but to ask: "Are there any flights to the Czech Republic today?"
"Sorry, there are no more. There will only be one tomorrow morning. We can compensate you with 300 euros for this."
She slowly turned around her ticket, not afraid of wasting time, as relaxed as if she were sitting in her own living room: "Oh... can you provide hotel room and board for today?"
The other party should take it for granted and say that they are deeply sorry for the inconvenience caused.
This service attitude is a bit different from the official website, but this is also a good thing. Three hundred euros is a lot. Xiao Li must be very happy to know:
"Then help me change to tomorrow's shift. I have a few companions. Will you notify them one by one later?"
The other party should understand.
She idled about the plane ticket in her hand.
While spinning, a gust of wind blew over her. She lost her grip and the ticket was blown away. She quickly leaned over to pick it up.
A big hand picked up her ticket before her. Before she could even stand up, she subconsciously said thank you and reached out to take the ticket from the other person's hand.
But as soon as her hand touched the other end of the ticket, the other party didn't let go. She pulled on it, and the other party squeezed it so tightly that she couldn't pull it out.
She looked up at the other person and was about to say you can give it to me.
But when she saw a handsome but familiar face, she felt like she was seeing a ghost in the daytime. She subconsciously took two steps back, and her face turned pale unconsciously.
The man in a black coat in front of her calmly looked at her ticket. She was flying to Czech Republic. The name and itinerary were the same as on the official website. He had been looking at it for a whole month, and he only saw the real person today.
His voice was low and slow, and every word was like a nail driven down:
"I didn't know that you could talk."
Tang Guanqi reacted and took a few steps back. His hands and feet became weak, but he turned around and ran. After taking two steps, he was blocked by several big men.
She tried to be calm, but her lips trembled inexplicably, forcing her to say two words: "Uncle Shi..."
Hearing her title of "cut off", Ying Duo didn't have much reaction, he just said lightly:
"Is it fun in Sweden? I see you stayed for two days."
Tang Guanqi suddenly felt a chill behind her, remembering that she had always felt like someone was always staring at her:
"You...you spy on me?"
If you can give me some monthly tickets, I will write as hard as a cow and a horse and bring you more love stories from KK and Duoduo. Love comes from the vast east
