my roommate

The status lasted until the summer vacation.

In previous years, I would buy a ticket in advance to go back to my hometown, but this year there were some accidents.Because distant relatives from other places celebrated their birthdays, my parents went to celebrate and planned to travel locally.

There is no one in my hometown, so I am naturally not in a hurry to go back.

From the corner of my eye, I watched my roommate pack up his meager luggage and prepare to see you at the beginning of school. I was suddenly very disappointed.

This kind of emotion came out of nowhere, and I couldn't figure it out for a while, so I could only sigh silently.

Maybe the roommate heard my mournful sigh, and he stopped when he was about to step out the door.

"Aren't you leaving?" he asked me.

"...My parents are not at home, so it doesn't make sense for me to go back now."

"Stay in the dormitory?"

"What else can I do? There is no arrangement at the moment." I shrugged and couldn't help but sigh again.

Hearing this, my roommate turned and looked at me.

I also looked at him, and the two of them looked at each other in silence.After a while, he said slowly: "You haven't looked at City C seriously yet, have you?"

Thinking about it, it is true that the two years of college have passed quietly, and I haven't visited City C well yet.Roommate wants me to travel in city C?I looked at him in bewilderment.

"I can take you anywhere," said the roommate.

I was stunned, not knowing what to say, I just looked at him stupidly.

The roommate is also very patient, repeating the boring behavior of "you look at me and I look at you" to me.

After a while, I hesitated and asked: "...Okay, okay?" I was a little flustered and couldn't help scratching my head: "Would it be inconvenient?"

"No." He answered quickly.

Seeing his serious face, I naturally couldn't help but hide my surging emotions, gritted my teeth, and nodded heavily.

The next day, I deliberately arrived at the school gate ten minutes earlier, but my roommate was earlier than me.

He was standing quietly under the shade of a tree with a backpack on his back. He was wearing a clean white shirt and black slacks. No matter how he looked, he looked like a national three-good student.

"Why are you so early?" I walked up to him.

"You're pretty early, too." He replied politely.

"Good habits." I casually said, "How do we go?" Yesterday we only made up our minds to go shopping together, and we haven't discussed the specific itinerary yet.

"You just have to come with me," he said bluntly.

Well, he saw through my familiarity with City C.I don't want to save face and compare the way with the local guy, so I can safely be behind him as luggage.

I followed him all the way to the station and got on a bus.

"Where is this going?" I asked curiously.

"Aquarium." He replied.

My heart skipped a beat, and I felt a little nervous.Could it be that my roommate found out that I hid his shell, so he took me to the aquarium to imply something?

"Are you nervous?" The roommate turned his face to the side, his eyes were very gentle, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Have you never been to the aquarium?"

Hearing his sarcastic tone, I was a little blown away, and quickly argued: "Of course I have been! I was thinking, C City is so big, why would I go to a place that children love."

"It's hot during the day, so it's not suitable for walking outside. In the evening, I'll take you to the night market." He said.However, it did not explain why to go to the aquarium.

The aquarium is at the terminal, and because it deviates from the downtown street, it is unimpeded all the way.It was noon when we arrived, and my roommate and I ate something casually at the fast food restaurant outside the museum, and then we were going to enter the museum.

During the summer vacation, the crowds are dense, and most of them are parents with children, or tour groups visit. City C is Linhai, as a landmark tourist attraction in the city, if you want to understand the mysteries of the ocean and the history of the city, this is the only way to go.

I said I'm going to buy a ticket, so I can treat my roommate.After all, he was a tour guide for me for nothing, and let him pay the bill himself, I must feel sorry.

But my roommate shook his head and said no need, and took me straight into a staff aisle next to it.

There were a few staff members in uniform sitting at the door of the staff passageway. When they saw their roommates, they stood up abruptly and bowed as if they had bumped into a leader patrolling.

"Hello, Master!"

I was stunned by their situation, grabbed my roommate by the arm, and asked him quietly: "What, what's going on?"

The roommate didn't answer, nodded to the staff, and led me swaggeringly into the venue.

The two walked around in silence for a while, and seeing that he didn't seem to be ready to answer the question just now, I was so curious that I asked him again.

"My parents are shareholders here," he said.

Well, I'm speechless.

But unexpectedly, he continued to explain.

"My family has lived on fishing for generations, but going to sea and seafood business is extremely risky. The gift of nature and the wrath of the ocean are beyond the control of human beings. After returning home with heavy losses, the family gave up hunting and relying on the accumulated wealth of the ancestors. Wealth has created a space for both human viewing and marine life's short-term survival." He stood at the innermost side and stroked the glass.The glass of the ocean channel cuts off the sea water and people, making him reflect the blue water light of the sea.

"Human beings' curiosity about the ocean is endless, and one day they will explore deeper secrets."

He looked at the sea with a very focused expression, as if staring at his relatives in the early days, attached to the warmth in its embrace.

A dolphin seemed to know him and saw him stretch out his hand, swimming around and rubbing against the palm of his hand.

The wonderful scene instantly attracted the attention of others, and a large number of tourists flocked to watch and take pictures.

Such a roommate made me feel very sacrosanct and very strange.

Many things flashed through my mind, but I didn't answer, and I was gradually squeezed out of the crowd.

"What's wrong?" Probably because I didn't see me when I turned around, my roommate also followed.

I cheered up: "No, let's go."

The two of us wandered around the museum until late in the evening.The museum itself is quite big, divided into three venues, ABC, and there are some traditional marine animal performances in it. My roommate and I didn’t spend a penny.

Because I was preoccupied and absent-minded, I became reticent.But my roommate, who was a commentator all the way, introduced me to popular science, and said more than the combined words of the two years of college.

After coming out, my roommate and I took the car back to the downtown area directly.

There is a well-known attraction in the city center.

The quaint towers are built along the hills and by the sea.Brightly lit all night, it is hazy and magnificent in the mist from a distance, and brilliant and elegant from a close view.It is rumored that it was a lighthouse that used to guide fishing boats, and it has been renovated into a modern building after several years.Due to its unique style, it has become very popular as a tourist attraction in City C in recent years.

In order to attract tourists, there is basically a night market every night, there are mythological performances, and some local snacks and antique ornaments are also sold.

In the past, I had only heard about it but never been there. After listening to my roommate's description, I put aside my worries for the time being and was eager to try it.

The building is on the coast, and my roommate and I entered from the top floor and gradually went down to the seaside at the bottom.

People were coming and going inside, making the not-so-spacious aisle even more crowded.In order to avoid being crowded out, I walked side by side with my roommate.

The whole building is a night market, and the left and right sides are full of shops with a wide variety of things.When I got to the middle floor, I finally had a free hand. I bought some snacks and drinks for my roommate, and we ate while walking.

When you come to an observation deck, the beautiful night seascape unfolds in front of you like a picture scroll - the lights of the towers reflect the sea surface, the huge cruise ship whistles and sails, and the sporadic small fishing boats flicker on the sea surface with dim yellow light, all the light gathers Light up a night sky.

Excitedly, I rushed to the armrest of the stand, grabbed a fairly good viewing position, and waved to my roommate hurriedly.

"What are you doing! Come on, come on!"

I was completely attracted by the beautiful scenery, immersed in the night and sea breeze, and my roommate didn't even know it when they came to me.The secrets, troubles and questions buried in my heart disappeared in an instant.

After a long time, I looked back to my roommate refreshed, only to find that he had been looking at me beside me, and now I happened to meet his eyes.

I'm a little embarrassed.

"You look much better than before." He offered.

"Yes, is it?"

"Ah."

After that, the two were silent for a while.

I took out my phone, hesitated, and said to my roommate: "Well, the scenery is nice, how about taking a photo?"

"Okay." The roommate nodded.

I put my phone on selfie mode and moved closer to him.

The phone screen framed my roommate's and my faces.

He suddenly put his arms around my waist.My hand trembled, and the phone almost fell to the ground.

Xin said that he wanted to take a photo, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it. In addition, I didn't resist in my heart, so I took an intimate photo with him.

My roommate and I enjoyed the sea view for a while, and then went down.

On the lower level, there are many local fairy tales performed along the way, with a wide variety, including sketch comedy cross talk.We casually read a few, and the stories all told the same story.Ancient legends, ocean spirits, poignant love can be summed up in three words.

Go out of the tower and come to the seaside at the bottom.

Even though it was midnight, there were still many tourists on the beach, and the seafood barbecue business was booming.

Seeing a row of crabs on the grill, I felt weird and couldn't help but peek at my roommate's face.He was expressionless. Seeing me looking at the grill, he asked me, "Do you want to eat barbecue?"

"Do you eat it?" Actually, I wanted to ask him if he eats seafood, er, or his kind?

Unexpectedly, he directly asked the barbecue owner: "Two people, is there any table?"

So the waiter led us to our seats and handed us the menu.

My roommate ordered several dishes, including grilled crabs, and perfectly helped me answer them with actions.

Seeing my roommate calmly gnawing on the crab's feet, I suddenly felt that the distance between me and him was not that far away.

After supper, my roommate and I walked around the beach and finally got ready to go home.

Because I had so much fun, I completely forgot about the access control of the school dormitory, and I only remembered it when I got in a taxi with my roommate.

Thinking of spending another 300 RMB to live in a broken hotel, I was depressed.

"Come back with me." The roommate said suddenly.
