Duncan looked at Alice quietly, and Alice looked at Duncan confidently. After a while, Duncan rubbed his eyebrows and felt a strange emotion come to his mind. The feeling of dissonance in his heart could not be dissipated for a long time.
It's obviously the same face, but how can it express such a hugely different temperament?
"Captain," Alice blinked curiously after seeing Duncan's reaction, then came over and asked,
"Why don't you speak? Did I say something wrong?"
"No, it's not your problem." Duncan shook his head and got rid of the messy thoughts in his head. Then he suddenly raised his eyelids and looked at the puppet in front of him with a solemn and serious expression.
"Yanlisi, have you ever wondered about the connection between yourself and the Frost Queen?" Alice was stunned for a moment, raised her hand and scratched her head, and seemed to think about it very seriously before she was not sure. He said: "I was curious, but then I thought about it and realized that it was not a very important thing, so I didn't think about it anymore. Duncan was a little surprised: "Is it not that important? "
"The Frost Queen is the Frost Queen. I am me. No matter how great that queen is, it is still her business. I don't understand it." Alice said seriously.
"I have something I'm good at, and I like every day now, which is good. In addition, I also heard Mr. Morris say that everyone in the world is likely to find another person who looks almost exactly like me. , then I will think that the Frost Queen is the one who looks exactly like me, even though I am actually a doll." Duncan listened to the doll's words quietly, and looked at her eyes when she mentioned the current day. The natural and contented look in her heart suddenly touched her heart.
Perhaps, she is really just a special false copy created by the ancient gods in the deep sea. Maybe, she is really just the result of the strange fusion of Le Nora who fell into the deep sea and the guillotine, or maybe , there are more secrets hidden in her, secrets that even Lenora could not imagine. But as Ellie herself said, it is not important. She is not smart, but she is very happy. There are many things she does not understand. things, but I have never felt nervous or fearful because of these overly complicated things.
She was born and lived in a world full of weirdness, but to her, this weird world was nothing but ordinary.
"normal". She was exploring, curious, and looking forward to everything in this new and unknown world to her, including tomorrow, just like a child opening her eyes in the sun.
There are countless living beings in the world, but even the bravest warriors, the most knowledgeable wise men, and the most devout believers cannot see the world from a perspective like Alice's.
Duncan suddenly had a feeling that in this strange world where everyone was afraid and everything was distorted, Alice, the doll, was more human than anyone else.
Just like the ordinary humans he saw walking calmly in the sun in another world, a world without abnormalities and visions, without gods and weirdness.
"Chuan?" Alice's curious voice sounded again.
"Why are you in a daze again?"
"Nothing" Duncan shook his head.
"I just suddenly felt that you are actually very smart." Alice was slightly startled when she heard Chuan Chang's compliment, and a happy look gradually appeared on her face: "Hey," she didn't know why Chuan Chang suddenly praised her. have
"Wisdom", I didn't even think that I could have any wisdom, but since Chuan Chang praised it like this, it must be something to be happy about.
After Deng Xing finished his compliment, he thought briefly, and then slowly reached his hand to his side - the cold touch came from his fingertips, it was the brass key.
In the deep sea, the submersible is slowly rising,
It will take some time for "recovery". Frost Queen Lenonora revealed a lot of information to herself, but there are still many flaws or ambiguities in the information, which she needs to confirm by herself.
The Brass Key was handed over to Lenora by a rational preacher of the end, but even with the latter's ability, she was ultimately unable to figure out the true origin of the key.
"Nature". Meanwhile, Alice this one looks totally
Is it still a coincidence that a corresponding keyhole appeared on the wrong copy that was born by "coincidence"?
Did the final evangelist foresee all that would happen today? It's still the ancient god who sleeps in the deep sea who is making it.
Maybe it’s time to try it after retrieving Leigh Nora’s memory during “Alice” and leaving the keyhole in Alice’s body.
"Alice" Duncan suddenly raised his head and looked at the doll in front of him solemnly.
"You come with me"
"Huh?" Alice was stunned for a moment, but she immediately reacted and got up to follow.
"Oh well."
"Stand the helm." Duncan stood up from behind the chart table, told the goat head, took a breath, turned and walked towards the captain's quarters.
Alice followed Duncan for no apparent reason, walked into the bedroom door together, and then turned back to close the door at the other's instruction.
Turning around and looking at Duncan curiously
"Chuangchang? What to do next?" Deng Yi silently took the key in his hand and looked at the puppet quietly: "I hope to test this key." When Alice heard this, she was a little surprised: "Ah ? Didn't you say this key might be dangerous? Could it be that the Frost Queen's soul resides inside? "Now that the hidden danger has been eliminated, Duncan said calmly, I just eliminated it myself.
"Oh." Alice said immediately. Then he turned around and fumbled with the zipper of his clothes on his back without any hesitation.
"Then let me take off my clothes first."
"Just expose the keyhole." Even though he had been thinking about getting along with this solid-headed doll for so long, Dengbo was a little embarrassed by this guy's unhesitating behavior at this time, and he subconsciously reminded him. .
Then there was another surprise.
"You're not afraid?"
"Captain, you said there are no hidden dangers." Alice turned and said. And you will wind it up for me personally, and you will definitely protect me if something happens, right?
"Yes, I will protect you." After a brief silence of two or three seconds, Duncan nodded slowly, then raised his finger and clicked a stool next to the bed.
"Sitting up here, I'm not sure what's going to happen when it's wound up, it's best not to stand."
"Oh." Alice agreed and obediently came to the round stool and sat down. With her back to the Duncan doll, the clothes on the back had been untied, and Duncan finally saw the figure.
"Keyhole" look. In the center of Alice's back, which was as smooth as white porcelain, the keyhole was embedded there, and there was a circle of fine and gorgeous patterns, with a texture like bronzing, surrounding the keyhole. Duncan lowered his head and took a look. The size and shape of the brass key in his hand were indeed exactly the same. A strange feeling emerged from his heart, mixed with a little nervousness. Duncan took a gentle breath, controlled the strangeness in his heart, and slowly turned the key. Slowly approach the round hole.
"Yanlisi"
"Um?"
"Don't be afraid." The wind-up key entered the keyhole without any obstruction, and then an extremely clear voice came to Deng Bei's ear, as if it was really ringing in his mind.
There was a soft "click" sound. Some mechanism was activated, but it was not an ordinary clockwork mechanism. A slight force came from the fingertips.
Duncan instantly realized that the clockwork key was turning on its own. It slowly turned to the horizontal position, and then there was another sound.
There was a "click", and everything in front of me began to change rapidly in the next second. Light and shadow were collapsing and reorganizing. The senses were undergoing transformation and reset, and there was that familiar slight dizziness, and that feeling of...
"Walking in the spirit world"
The feeling of "transfer", there is no time to sigh in my heart
"It's like this again." Duncan found that everything around him had stabilized again. He was in an old, gorgeous but eerie and strange grand mansion. The classical and solemn hall was wide and empty, and tall columns were arranged on the second floor of the hall. On the side, supporting the gloomy roof above like dark clouds gathering, the narrow and high windows are inlaid on the walls covered with patterns and reliefs, and the windows seem to be covered with dark thorns.
There are chaotic lights and shadows floating outside the thorn bushes, and in this eerie mansion, there are voices from time to time, whispers, intermittent chatting and laughter, the sound of footsteps walking across the floor, and even something like something somewhere There was a dance-like, eerie, vague music going on.
Deng frowned slightly and glanced at the gloomy old mansion. Something flashed out of the corner of his eye.
Deng Bei quickly looked over there, but only saw an empty corner, but he was sure that he had indeed seen something just now. There was a figure that looked like a maid in a white dress. The figure had no head and no upper body. There is only a bare neck at the neckline.
Duncan stood in the empty hall for a moment, carefully observing the surrounding environment, feeling the strange and uneasy atmosphere vaguely floating in the air, and then took steps towards the spiraling upward stairs at the end of the hall.
He wanted to figure out where this place was and why he was giving Alice
After "winding up", will I be brought here? He walked up the spiral staircase. The stairs, which seemed to have been abandoned for countless years, made strange creaking sounds under his feet, and as he walked, a sense of familiarity suddenly appeared in Duncan's mind.
He stopped suddenly and opened his eyes wide as he looked at the various furnishings and styles in the mansion. He knew what the feeling of familiarity was about, the room where Frost Queen Lenora slept.
