With the help of the station official, An Ning boarded the train.
Xiao Lang, serving as an excellent "guide dog," followed her aboard.
Lin Cuihua, being a kind-hearted middle-aged woman, stuck right by An Ning's side, ready to look after the poor, unfamiliar young girl.
After An Ning was on the train, the station official stood on the platform, thought for a moment, and said, "That's a pretty good dog. It'd be great if there were more like it."
The staff members behind him who knew the situation said nothing. They all knew that the official had a son who was born with an eye condition.
The station official returned to his office with this thought in mind. He called an old army buddy and told him about the dog that could guide people.
His buddy on the other end of the line mentioned guide dogs from overseas. It was the first time the station official had heard of such a thing; it turned out other places already had them.
"I hope we can get them here soon, too."
