Terrorist Attacked Magome Underground Station!?
(July.16,2004)
It was a hot summer morning in Tokyo...
I woke up at the same time as susual....
And...I felt like not going to work as usual....
And...I left my house and headed to work as usual...
It was a just a normal day....until I got to the train station!!
I heard the announcement saying "the train was delayed..."
The train in the platform was full of people...the train was there for more than 15minutes..
then the next announcement said "This train was cancelled...so please get off the train and wait for the next one..."
The platform was full of people and it seemed very difficult to hold all the people getting off from the train..
BUT all the people got off the train somehow and waited for the next train..
Then the next announcement said "found a bomb like suspicious stuff at Magome station"
Wow!! It might be a terroist attack!!
So, train will not be in service for a while...
They provided a shuttle bus service...but there was long long Queue for shuttle bus...
There was now way to go to work....
It took me nearly two hours to get to the office....
News on the TV said the susupicious stuff was a gas lighter....
but they fount more than two lighters...
It was not terrorist attack but a noughty joke...
Oh...give me a break!!
