波莉独自坐在车厢里。帕维尔在乌兰乌德下车了,那个士兵也换到了另一节车厢。上铺的新乘客是一位瘦弱的女士,她几乎整天都在睡觉。
一列货运列车从对面驶过,几乎有两公里长,载着木材。波莉数了三十八节平板车,然后停了下来。
火车在上午中途到达哈巴罗夫斯克。哈巴罗夫斯克位于阿穆尔河畔,阿穆尔河是世界第八长河。阿穆尔河构成了俄罗斯与中国的大部分边界。从站台上,波莉透过两栋建筑之间的缝隙看到了河流。河面宽阔,颜色像浓茶。远处的河岸,透过薄雾,是中国。
波莉跳下车,沿着火车走了一段。
一只远东丹顶鹤站在车站附近的小沼泽边缘。它几乎有两米高,黑白相间,眼周围有红色。远东丹顶鹤是世界上最稀有的鹤之一。也许只剩下三千只,主要在阿穆尔河流域繁殖。
波莉歪着头看着它,鹤也歪着头回望。波莉走近了一些,鹤没有动。
一位列车员吹响了哨子。波莉跳回火车,转身看着那只鹤。鹤仍在看着她。然后,它缓缓抬起长脖子,迈着稳重的步伐,走向沼泽深处。
火车驶出哈巴罗夫斯克,向南行驶。太平洋现在不到七百公里远了。
