高架橋上列車再次呼嘯而去，聲波在重新編碼過的夜晚彈跳，撞上新舊材料拼成的立面。街角的語氣變得客氣而昂貴，印刷字體在招牌上磨得光滑發亮。地面仍然擁擠，仍然嘈雜，仍然冰冷，外賣紙杯堆在路邊欄杆上像一串隨時會斷的白色泡沫。城市在這裡向上長、向外擴、向內擠。有人在夜裡加班，有人在夜裡搬家，有人在夜裡百思不得其解，為何像你一樣聰明的孩子會任由生活擺佈。

The train howls over the viaduct again, the waves of the sound ricocheting through an algorithmic night, striking facades sutured from old and new. On street corners, every turn of phrase grows polite, tagged and priced. The fonts on the signboards have been polished to a glow. And the ground remains crowded, remains loud and cold. Takeout paper cups pile along the roadside railings like a string of white foam about to snap at any moment. Here, the city climbs, unfurls, and tightens. Someone is working late at night, someone is moving houses at night, and someone is trying, at night, to loosen a mystery, asking why clever children like you would let life shoulder them aside.
