Chapter 373

... it seems inappropriate to say that this place is gloomy.: 3w. し

Walking in a dark alley, Lin Sanjiu put his hands into his trouser pockets, glanced back and forth several times, and felt more uncomfortable as he walked.

The visibility here is very low, and there is always a visible mist of particles floating in the air; Countless straight chimneys in the distance are spitting out thicker and more smoke without stopping - after soaking in them for a long time, there is a smell of sulfur in your nose. Obviously, there is no trace of rain, but whether it is on the ground of the alley or on the wide road, there are always potholes of dirty water. If you step in it carelessly, it will splash everywhere on your calves.

The sparse dwellings along the way looked like they had been corroded by mildew and moisture for 50 years. Thick black stains spread on the walls, dripping down the eaves just reaching the eyebrow height of Lin Sanjiu. Even in the real world, which has suffered the doomsday, it is rare to see such a dirty appearance.

Snow White was dressed in a soft and smooth white satin dress. After walking for more than ten minutes, the hem of the dress had become yellow and black, full of mud spots - but what was more ugly than this dress was her face.

The dwarf stopped at the edge of the city and didn't send the princess back to the palace again; Lin Sanjiu glanced at her and thought about it for a while. After all, he gave up his intention to take care of each other's mood and asked straightly, "are you born in such a place? To be honest, you and the city look completely like two cartoons..."

"My kingdom is certainly not like this!" Snow White suddenly raised her voice and sharply retorted, "although my kingdom is small, it is a beautiful place with blue sky, clear water and shady trees - I don't know this place!"

"Don't you know?" Lin San paused. "Then I can go."

Snow White suddenly blushed all over her body, and her beautiful little face was anxious to wring, "no, I know here, don't go... Oh, I mean, this place is my kingdom, but it wasn't like this before -"

I have guessed this kind of thing for a long time. When I said that I wanted to leave, I also meant to make snow white anxious; While turning a deaf ear to her words. Lin Sanjiu conveniently pulled a piece of paper from the wall of a folk house.

I don't know how many years it has been posted here. She suddenly touched the ash in her hand; The paper was soaked soft in the moisture and lost its toughness. There were circles of yellow stains on the surface, and even the things originally printed on it could not be seen clearly - but almost every place that eyes could see was covered with such paper. From the street all the way to the end of the alley.

He shook it gently, and Lin Sanjiu looked carefully; Even snow white shut her mouth and stretched her neck around her toes.

... after watching it for a full minute, Lin Sanjiu put down his hand in a daze.

In the mildew and stains, it takes a little resolution to understand what is written on it; However, if she is not mistaken, this is a leaflet.

A flyer for election canvassing.

The words "vote/for" can be vaguely seen from the bold boldface at the bottom, obviously for someone who is canvassing; The English names behind are long and strange. After reading them for a while, Lin Sanjiu finally recognized a "McDuck".

I was shocked. Her eyes immediately moved back to the circle of yellow stains, and she suddenly understood why this part of the stains on each piece of paper turned yellow——

"Scotch, is Mike duck your father?"

She turned her head and stared at snow white.

The girl's petal like purplish red mouth slightly opened into an "O" word, which seemed to have no duck blood - "what are you talking about?"

"Take a good look yourself," Lin Sanjiu impatiently covered her face with a piece of paper. "This is a flyer made by Scott Mack duck to compete for the president of the country!"

She vaguely remembered that this role seemed to be Donald Duck's uncle, who seemed to be very rich... While watching snow white gradually change her face, Lin Sanjiu thought uncertainly. That's right. Only money can compete for president. Although this is a cartoon world, the internal logic is quite realistic

"When did our country implement democracy?" Snow White screamed again, and three or five crows flew up on the roof not far away. "Where is my father? And my stepmother?"

Since she knew that Lin Sanjiu would not have any answer, she couldn't care about her image. He lifted up his skirt and rushed out in a hurry; Lin Sanjiu sighed and followed.

Although the city has expanded at least threeorfour times, fortunately, the building with the royal palace as the central symbol is still firmly in the middle of the city - they almost lost in the narrow lane like a cobweb for several times, and finally found the location of the royal palace.

I saw the palace from a distance. Snow White's anxiety suddenly eased a little.

Even if he hadn't been here before, Lin Sanjiu could guess that in this dirty and gloomy city, probably only the royal palace still looks like before: every royal palace building is as white as jade, and the exquisite and fantastic roof stands high and low in the dense fog, and even a little golden reflection flickers, which comes from its golden edging and decoration.

"Here and your painting style can match," Lin Sanjiu said after snow white, "... But the air is so dirty, why is the only palace so clean?"

"You don't understand, there are special people in the palace who are responsible for wiping the outer walls..." Snow White just answered this sentence, almost as if to respond to her words. A team of people with buckets and cleaning tools came out of the gate of the palace from a distance; Everyone's face was covered with a rag, set up a shelf, and began to paint under the wall.

After coming in for so long, in addition to the rats and crows in the ditch and the faces flashing behind the window, this was the first time Lin Sanjiu saw a living creature.

"Let's go," she tugged at Snow White's sleeve. "Since someone came, we happened to go over and ask, what's the matter with this Mike duck and where is your father."

With this pull, snow white didn't move.

Lin San paused and looked back at the girl.

Although she didn't exert herself this time, Snow White was not pulled to move - but at the moment, the girl seemed to have just been taken away by someone, and she didn't move foolishly. The mouth opened into a slightly demented appearance.

Looking forward with her dull eyes, an old man who was not tall and covered with dirt was stumbling closer and closer——

"Snow White!" The old man, who just ran out of the cleaning team, was almost covered with black mud in his wrinkles, and his face was yellow due to malnutrition: "snow white. You are back! You are still well, my baby daughter..."

——Is this the king?

Snow White maintained a dull look and was held in her arms by the old man; After a long time, she suddenly flushed her eyes and quickly pushed the old man away. Unbelievably, he looked him up and down again: "-- father? What's going on here?"

"Oh, you can't call me father again," the thin old man quickly waved his hand, "now the country is getting better and better under the rule of Mr. Mike duck; the status of any king is in the past..."

From the back of his dry and old face, Lin Sanjiu spent a lot of effort to see a contour that is somewhat similar to snow white.

However, she doesn't care about family and state affairs. It seems that the stepmother doesn't exist anymore. Should she leave

"Who the hell is that duck? Father, how did you make it so ugly!" Snow White blushed. There were blue veins floating around his neck, shaking his hands and stamping his feet: "why did he suddenly go from King to President -"

"Hahaha, of course, this is what the people mean."

A somewhat thick voice suddenly "Gaga" a smile behind the old man, and immediately made the three people present calm down.

The first person to react was the former King - the old man turned around quickly, bowed his head respectfully, and shouted "Mr. President".

When he turned around, Lin Sanjiu and snow white saw the people behind him.

——Of course, it's not really a person.

With a high hat on his head and a pair of round glasses on his beak. Half of the round body is wrapped in a black dress, but the lower body is wearing nothing - it looks like Donald Duck in cartoons, except for the long and fluffy short hair on its cheeks, which indicates that it is an elderly duck.

Compared with Mickey Mouse, Mike duck looks much more normal - although it is also more than half the size of ordinary people. As soon as you open your mouth, you can almost swallow Snow White's face into the duck beak; When blinking, it also blinks from both sides to the middle.

"So you are snow white," Mike duck said to her with a smile, stroking his dress demurely, "... Things inside the royal family in the past have been properly solved; now this country has ushered in a new process, and I hope you won't be an obstacle to it."

Looking down, Mike duck obviously noticed the leaflet held by snow white.

"Oh, how can there be such a thing," it seemed very embarrassed to wave its wings, "Congress has long passed a resolution to appoint me as the president of the country for life, and these leaflets should also be cleaned up... Why don't you wipe the outer wall of the palace today?"

It turned to the old man and said this sentence, as if it suddenly ignited Snow White's infinite anger - she pushed her father away and took two steps to aim at old duck Mike's huge duck face: "what do you mean by saying 'solved'? What about my stepmother? And how dare you let my father do chores, you poultry!"

"Oh, how dare you say I'm a poultry." Mike duck's two eyes narrowed into two vertical seams, and the duck's beak flattened into a smiling arc: "your stepmother is not from her own country, and she has returned to her own monarchy to continue to be her Princess... But now you are not a princess, which is really ironic."

Snow White was so angry with this that she didn't know for a moment whether she was still digesting the news and couldn't say anything; Taking advantage of this Kung Fu, Mike duck saw Lin Sanjiu in a blink of an eye.

"Oh, this must be a tourist from afar?" It politely opened half a duck's wings, and its two erect eyes blinked quickly in the middle. "... I heard from my nephew that another tourist came here for sightseeing, but I didn't expect to meet him so soon. I have an unkind request for you. If you promise me, I can provide you with all the help you need."

It bit the word "everything" very loudly.

Under such a hint, Lin Sanjiu immediately thought of Minnie Mouse's golden ring.

As long as we find the ring, this game will be over - the cat doctor outside is now alone between the soul and the puppet master, but these two guys are not affected by it, and I don't know what's going on now; The only puppet division that can be called combat power fell into a coma again, in case someone approached them with ill intentions

If you don't want to, stop. Once you think of it, Lin Sanjiu is so anxious that he can't wait to go out right away.

"What is it?" She couldn't help asking softly.

"It's simple." Old duck Mike rubbed his wings and said, "Snow White has too much opinion on me. I hope she can go to another land to live... I've found a place. As long as you take her there, it's over. Then, no matter what you want, I can give it to you."

When it said this, it looked as if the two fathers and daughters around it did not exist - it took a long time for snow white to react to what Mike duck meant, and her face turned white.

"No!" Mixed with anger and fear, the girl screamed; Ran a step to Lin Sanjiu, and she stopped vigilantly and stared at her: "you promised me to help me deal with my stepmother! Now that she's gone, you'll help me deal with this duck! It's a deal!"

Who told you? Lin Sanjiu glanced at her and turned his eyes to Mike duck.

Old Mike duck smiled like he was holding the winning ticket and tilted his head at her: "... How? Do you choose to help me, a president with unbearable private wealth, or this penniless little girl?"

I knew it was another multiple-choice question——

Lin Sanjiu breathed a sigh, inserted his hands into his trouser pockets again, and looked up at the dark sky.

"If I knew this, I might as well let snow white eat the poisonous apple and die... It's so troublesome." She withdrew her eyes to the sky, moved her neck and shoulders back and forth, and the joints made a "cluck" sound. "Sorry, I'm not very clear sometimes. Just get used to it... I choose a penniless girl." (to be continued.)
