When Shen Zhiyi dragged his injured ankle up the last stone steps of Hallstatt, the setting sun was melting gold.
A girl in a cotton skirt sat on the edge of the observation deck holding an acoustic guitar and humming tuneless ballads.
"Your feet are crying." The girl suddenly looked up, her eyes like obsidian soaked in the stream, "It said it wanted to fly."

"I want Lin Xiaoman," her voice fell over the din in the room, "my singing partner."
The thirty-nine waiting actresses suddenly fell silent.
Lin Xiaoman, who was changing his costume in the corner, looked up blankly, and the needle tip pierced his fingertips.
As blood seeped out, she heard a laughing voice:
"The wind on the top of the mountain still remembers the song you owe me."
