Sending Clara to the fallen tree, gray stopped.

"Then I'll go out and come back to see you later!" Clara waved to gray, and her sweet smile seemed to make the snow melt.

"I'll wait for you to come back!" Gray also smiled, "if you can't find me

Clara threw the gold coin in her hand and said with a smile, "then I will throw it into the river under the castle and throw it down hard!"

"It seems that I can only come out of the water!"

Clara smiled, turned over and hugged him with a kiss, then bent down and quickly walked into the hollow trunk of the big tree and disappeared in the darkness that gray couldn't see through.

Gray waited for a while before he bent down and walked in, but he didn't go deep. After walking somewhere, he stopped sharply and reached out to touch something in front of him.

After a while, he withdrew his hand in disappointment, turned back to the world of the four kingdoms and walked slowly in the direction of the castle.

After returning to the castle, gray took out a key and rubbed it in his hand. He wanted to go to the new machine for the first time. He wanted to know what the machine was like and why it could give the toy flesh and soul.

But after entering the castle, he was not in a hurry. He turned his steps and walked into a long corridor.

Walking down the corridor, he came to the back of the clock, stood on the platform and gently pulled the joystick.

In the tall house, Clara took what her mother had left her. Wearing the long dress she left, she walked down the stairs quickly. Looking around, she saw her father sitting in a chair with a sad face.

He strode over, apologized to his father, said he didn't understand his pains, was too attached to his mother's death, and so on.

The father was moved and hugged Clara, feeling that his daughter had grown up.

After making up, Clara danced with her father, accompanied by a gift left by her mother.

Before leaving here, Clara is going to see the godfather and ask him if he knows about the four kingdoms.

In her opinion, this is certain, because the godfather put the key there. He must know more than himself.

After entering the stage, Clara subconsciously looked at the clock. She remembered that she had seen her father's sad face from there before, otherwise she wouldn't want to understand so many things.

But as soon as she looked up, she was stunned. She saw a doll standing on the original ring, looked here and turned slowly.

She was sure that there was no such doll on the godfather's clock.

And the doll is so much like gray that it just can't move or talk.

"Gray?" She whispered to the doll, with some doubt between her eyebrows.

But the doll did not answer her, but returned to the back of the clock with the rotation of the clock.

Gray pulled the lever again, and the platform slowly turned to the other side. As soon as she turned around, she saw Clara standing below. She seemed to open her mouth and say something, but there was no sound.

Looking at Clara, Gray was a little confused. What he saw last time was not like this. Last time, people in that world were like being hit by a powerful slow spell, like sloths.

But this time, Clara he saw was very normal. Her movements were no different from ordinary people. It seemed that he saw him and wanted to say hello to him.

"Clara, what are you doing and why are you talking to the clock?" Clara's sister came in from behind and asked strangely.

"See the figure above?" Clara pointed it out to her.

"See, eh, there seems to be no such doll before. When did you put it on!" My sister also had some doubts and wondered if she had remembered wrong.

Clara smiled brightly. "I put it on. I named him gray."

Then she said to it, "isn't it, stupid gray?"

"Well, aren't you going to find Mr. dussemel? We're going home soon." Her sister pushed her and said that she didn't want to stare at a doll in a daze. It looked a little stupid.

Clara was pushed around by her and turned back again. After the circle turned around, she turned back again. The doll was still on it.

But when she went to the godfather, she came back and found that the doll was no longer on it.

Clara had some doubts, but before she could figure out what was wrong, her father, sister and brother had taken her to the carriage and walked home.

Castle palace, gray came down from the platform, his heart was not calm.

What he saw told him that after Clara left, the time flow rate of the two worlds seemed to become the same, so he saw Clara who acted normally.

On the other side, they can see themselves, but what they see is not normal themselves. Otherwise, a shrinking living man standing on the clock will certainly cause them to shout and exclaim.

But the woman just pointed at herself for a while, and her expression was normal without much surprise.

Clara must have seen herself, recognized herself and wanted to talk to herself.

It shows that in her opinion, she still has some recognizable places so that she can recognize herself, but others will not be surprised.

"I won't be a doll in their eyes, will I?" Gray suddenly said to himself.

He has this idea, not out of nothing, but that people in the world are made of dolls. When he appears on the clock, his image in the eyes of others is just a doll, which doesn't seem to be surprising.

And in this way, Clara can recognize herself, and others won't be too surprised. At most, it's strange how a doll ran onto the clock.

After all, that place is only a place for information exchange between the two worlds, which is not completely integrated. It is understandable that there is some distortion in information transmission.

As for the time flow rate of the two worlds is the same, gray also has some guesses.

He found three Regents who were still in the palace.

The three Regents usually live in the palace and will not return to their kingdom. Except that little jasmine is in full swing building her own wine Kingdom, the other three are here.

Including the ginger queen who wants to build the kingdom from scratch. She is not as hands-on as little jasmine. Everything is left to others who return to the amusement kingdom. Naturally, someone will handle those things for her.

"Gray, has the queen left the four kingdoms?" Seeing him, the three asked in unison.

"The queen has left, but she will be back soon." Gray answered quickly and said, "three gentlemen, if it's convenient for me, I'd like to ask you a few questions."

"You ask!" Queen Jiang nodded. She knew she could come back. Gray made a lot of efforts and was kind to him.

Gray nodded. "Has Queen Mary been here since she created the four kingdoms until she left last time?"

"No!" Queen ginger shook her head, "Queen Mary sometimes leaves suddenly and will not come back for several days. Sometimes she will come back after leaving for half a day."

Gray nodded and continued to ask, "how long have the four kingdoms existed?"

"Thirty three years!" The ginger mother queen calculated and quickly replied.

"OK, I see. Thank you, sir!"

Gray nodded. The answer was similar to what he thought. Sure enough, Queen Mary was the same. When she returned there, the worlds on both sides would be synchronized, which was why she would disappear every other period of time.

Because when she was in this world, the world would pass very slowly, so every time she went back, it didn't take long, so no one noticed there.

But after she went back, both sides synchronized, and it was easy to find her leaving.

Of course, if it is not synchronized, her departure will be more obvious. Maybe she will leave for months and years at a time.

However, in that way, the history of the four kingdoms is far more than 33 years, and it is almost 333 years.
