Hogwarts Wizard of the East

Li Ran in his sleep was awakened by a urge to urinate.

Li Ran opened his eyes and rubbed them.He turned his head left and right and looked around, and found that it was already dark outside the window.

His mother and father changed positions at some point, and his mother was lying on her side on the seat opposite.With his eyes closed, he must be asleep.The bag in her mother's hand was placed a little inside her head, closer to the car window.

Father Li, who was sitting next to Li Ran, had his eyes half closed, as if he was not sleeping deeply. Every once in a while, he would open his eyes and stare at the surroundings. When he found that nothing happened, he lowered his head and continued to rest for a while with his eyes closed.

At this time, because he was asleep, Li Ran leaned against Li's father unconsciously.

Li Ran shook his head and twisted his neck, which was a little stiff from sleeping.He sat up straight and hit his sore shoulder with his hand.

As if sensing Li Ran's movements, Father Li slowly opened his half-closed eyes.He looked down at his son.

"Why, you're awake, son, do you want to stand up and move around?" After a long day of driving, Li's father seemed to have lost the energy he had when squeezing in the car in the morning. He just asked his son slowly. .

"Okay, Dad, I'm going to do some exercise and go to the toilet." Li Ran nodded, stopped beating his back, stood up and straightened his clothes.

After hearing this, Father Li stood up and reached out to pat Mother Li who was lying down to wake her up.

"Honey, I'll take my son to the bathroom. You look at something and the seat." Father Li said to the sleepy mother Li.

After hearing this, Mother Li sat up, yawned and stretched, and replied: "Okay, you two go quickly. Just watch Li Ran and don't get kidnapped."

"Don't worry, I'm here." Father Li smiled and took Li Ran to the bathroom on the train.

Li Ran's family sat at the end of this carriage, not too far from the bathroom.

In this era, because it was still a green train, it was particularly bumpy when traveling. Going to the toilet or the water room was not a good experience, and under normal circumstances, it was unavoidable to encounter people who were washing fruits and vegetables and occupied the sink for a long time. of fellow travelers…

Obviously, Li Ran also encountered this situation this time. There were two aunts in the water room leaning closely against the aisle next to them. They swayed and chatted unconsciously as the car bumped.

One of them chatted for a while, then turned around and turned on the faucet, took out a few cucumbers from his arms and washed them there.After washing, I did not turn off the faucet directly, but let it flow "swishing, swishing, swooshing...".The aunt who was washing vegetables turned around and handed a washed cucumber to another aunt who was leaning against the car next to her.

"Hey, you were talking about the eldest daughter next door to your house a while ago..." The standing aunt took the cucumber and took a bite, but did not stop what she was saying and chewed a few times casually. After that, he continued to chat with the aunt who was washing vegetables.

The other one also responded a few words while chewing cucumber.

While chatting, the aunt who was washing vegetables finally seemed to hear the sound of water flowing. She turned around and turned the faucet, but it was not tightened. The faucet changed from continuous to ticking. Tick ​​tock..

Seeing this, the vegetable washing aunt twisted it hard for a while, and found that she had screwed it all the way, but the faucet was still ticking, so she ignored it and turned around to continue talking about the topic that she hadn't finished talking about before.

As Li Ran walked, he looked at the dripping faucet, feeling a little irritated in his heart.Along with the irritability is a slight feeling of panic.

He reached the toilet in just a few steps.

Father Li let go of Li Ran's hand, pointed to the toilet door, smiled at Li Ran and said, "We must succeed!"

Li Ran lowered his head, slapped his forehead gently, and sighed. He felt as if his father was possessed by someone with a peach-shaped hairstyle. (Note 1)

"I know, dad, I will succeed..." Li Ran's eyes were like dead fish, and he rolled his eyes and replied to Li's father.

"Go quickly, dad is waiting here for you to come back." Father Li bent down, placed his hands more than ten centimeters in front of his head, and fanned the air back and forth.

Li Ran simply ignored his father this time, turned around, opened the door and entered the toilet.

Entering the toilet, Li Ran first locked the door with his backhand, then covered his nose with one hand, untied his trousers with the other, pulled his trousers down to his knees, and then took out his little brother from his trousers. '.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa..."

Although Li Ran covered his nose, he still smelled the smell of urine and urine in the toilet.

'Why does it smell so strong here? It smells much worse than the toilet on the train when I was an adult! 'Li Ran thought silently in his heart.

In fact, it’s not Li Ran’s fault, because trains in this era were not significantly renovated as they were later, and the bathrooms in the trains at this time were still smelly and dirty.I can only blame Li Ran for not riding the trains of this era when he was a child and not seeing this situation.But this time, he finally experienced it.

After Li Ran relieved his bladder and little brother, he felt much better.

Li Ran shook twice, then lifted up his trousers, tied the trousers with a small bow and tied them tightly with both hands.

He glanced at the window in the toilet. The window was locked, and there were iron pillars standing outside the window in the toilet, making it impossible for anyone to reach out and open the window from the inside.The windows are made of opaque material.I couldn't see clearly the sky outside, I could only vaguely know that it was dark outside.

Li Ran no longer paid attention to the window, turned around, opened the door, and walked out of the toilet.

He first went to the water room, turned on the broken faucet, washed his hands, scrubbed them a few times, lowered his head, held the water in his hands and washed his face thoroughly.

After rinsing for more than ten seconds, Li Ran raised his head and tried to tighten the faucet with his left hand.With his right hand, he looked in the mirror and wiped his bangs, which had been accidentally washed by water, back from his head, making it into a simple bun.

After twisting it for a while, he found that the faucet was still ticking like the same, and Li Ran had no idea what to do.My heart became more and more impetuous.

Li Ran shook his head, as if he wanted to calm down. After taking two or three deep breaths, he turned and walked towards his father, who was still waiting for him.

Taking a deep breath, Li Ran tried to calm down the uneasiness and impatience that came from nowhere in his heart.

Unfortunately, it did not have a successful effect.He could only reluctantly pull down the corners of his mouth and smile at his father.

"Dad, I'm fine, let's go back."

"Okay." Father Li didn't say much.It seemed that he also sensed something was wrong.He walked over, took Li Ran's still wet hand, and walked towards the way he came.

After walking a few steps, Li Ran and his son returned to the place where they were sitting.

Father Li first asked Li Ran to go in and sit down, and then he sat down a little outside.

After thinking for a moment, Father Li stood up again, picked up the bag next to Mother Li, reached out and rummaged through it for something.

After rummaging for a while, Father Li took out a bottle of mung bean soup and pulled the towel off the outside of the mung bean soup.

He handed the mung bean soup to Li Ran: "You must be thirsty after sleeping for so long. Drink a little first, don't drink too much."

"I know, Dad." Li Ran took the mung bean soup, opened it, took a sip, and returned it to Father Li.

After Li's father took it, he did not wrap the bottle of mung bean soup directly in the towel.Instead, he used a towel to wipe Li Ran's still dripping face and hands, and then wrapped the towel around the mung bean soup again, although the mung bean soup was no longer so cold at this time.

Father Li put the mung bean soup back into the bag and sat down.

Li Ran looked at Li's mother, who was looking out of the car window, and asked suspiciously: "Mom, what are you looking at, are you staring straight?"

Upon hearing this, Mother Li withdrew her gaze from the car window.He turned to look at his son.

"It's nothing, I'm just wondering why even though the weather forecast says it will be sunny here near the capital, there are not a few stars visible at night." Mother Li said questioningly.

Li Ran looked up at the clock hanging above the carriage at the back of the car. The time on it should be a few seconds shy of ten o'clock.

As Li Ran looked at it, the second hand on the clock was slowly, flickering from the number 11 to 12.

The second hand jumped to 12 o'clock. Not sure if it was an illusion, but Li Ran felt the clock shake a bit.

Then the steward's voice came from the small speaker next to the clock.

"Dear passengers and friends, it is now [-] o'clock in the afternoon Beijing time. The next stop of the train is the terminal station of this journey, Beijing. Friends who are getting off the train, please be prepared."

It seems to feel something.

Li Ran suddenly turned his head and looked out the window. Sure enough, the sky that should have been full of stars was now covered with dark clouds. The black sky made Li Ran a little breathless.
