In the north of the city, in a remote courtyard, there are two dim lights in a house.
A man in black looked at Hughes sitting behind the chair with a solemn expression, and said in a lowered voice: "Captain, we haven't got any news about Snar and the others since we came back, and we haven't found any clues about them. .”
"But judging from what happened after we returned to the stronghold, we left a lot of belongings and weapons behind. Snar and the others probably didn't leave the City of Chaos on their own initiative. They probably encountered an accident when they went out to look for Alex, and He was killed by the group." Another man in black also said solemnly, his expression also very solemn.
"Could it be that they found Alex?"
A man in black exclaimed softly, and then immediately covered his mouth, with a look of horror in his eyes.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly dropped to freezing point. More than a dozen people in black were silent, and they could see fear in each other's eyes.
Although they had always regarded Alex as their target over the years, when he might actually appear in front of them, the first thing they felt was not surprise, but fear.
That legendary man left an indelible record and also left a deep shadow in the hearts of his opponents.
"It can't be Alex. He has become disabled. It is absolutely impossible for one person to destroy the team led by Nelson." Hughes shook his head firmly, grinned, and said with a cold smile: "However, No matter who dares to kill one of our Black Hawk squads, they must pay the price, blood for blood and tooth for tooth."
After hearing this, the faces of the men in black softened slightly, and their faces regained their confidence.
"Although the murderer cannot be Alex, this matter does not necessarily have nothing to do with him. Next, I will deploy black hawks from various places to the city of chaos to conduct a blanket search to find traces of Nelson and the others. At the same time, Search for Alex." Hughes clenched his fists and sneered: "I have a hunch that he is in this chaotic city, and the deep mountains and old forests do not fit his character."
"yes!"
All the men in black responded in unison.
…
After sending away the city lord and his daughter, Mag took Amy and Anna upstairs, bribed Barbara with a black pepper steak, entrusted her to give Anna a bath, put on a beautiful pink nightgown, and the two little ones The guy was lying on the crib.
"Meow meow~"
The ugly duckling screamed anxiously under the bed, scratching the foot of the bed and poking his head.
"Ugly duckling, I already have Miss Anna. I don't want you anymore. You can sleep on the ground from now on." Amy stuck her head out and looked at the ugly duckling and said.
"Meow~" The ugly duckling's ears suddenly fell down, and he retracted his front paws that were resting on the foot of the bed. He looked at Amy with some grievance, tears already welling up in his eyes.
"The ugly duckling is so pitiful." Anna also poked her head out of the bed and looked at the ugly duckling with some pity. After thinking about it, her eyes lit up and she said, "It's better to let it sleep among us."
"Meow meow!" The ugly duckling suddenly became excited, jumped on the spot, and looked up at Amy with an expectant expression.
"Since Miss Anna has agreed, I will reluctantly agree to let you go to bed, but you have to be obedient." Amy thought for a moment, nodded, and then lay beside the bed and picked up the ugly duckling who came over. Placed between the two of them.
"Meow meow~"
The ugly duckling found a comfortable position between the two of them, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
"So good." Anna gently stroked the ugly duckling's hair with a smile on her face.
"But it's getting fatter and fatter. It feels like the bed will collapse under its weight soon." Amy pinched the flesh on the ugly duckling's face and sighed.
"The plump one is cuter. Look how fun it is to pinch it like this. It's like it's made of water." Anna grabbed the ugly duckling's face with both hands and kneaded it gently. After a while, it turned into a round cake shape. It will become a square.
"Wow! You can still play like this!" Amy's eyes lit up, and she suddenly became interested. She reached out and pulled the ugly duckling's face to both sides, and it immediately changed its appearance, causing the two little guys to giggle.
"It's so pitiful." Mag, who had just come out of the bath, looked at this scene and couldn't help but smile and shake his head. Other people's cats are their masters. Here, no matter who comes, the ugly duckling's family status will automatically be -1 .
The two little guys were having fun. Amy turned to look at Mag and said coquettishly: "Father, can you tell us a bedtime story?"
When Anna heard this, she also looked at Mag, with bright eyes and a bit of anticipation. Her grandfather used to tell her stories to coax her to sleep every night before going to bed.
"Okay, let's tell a story about Snow White today." Mag sat down beside the bed with a stool.
"Is Snow White made of ice cream?" Amy raised her little hand and asked.
"No, Snow White is called Snow White because her skin is as white as snow." Mag shook his head with a smile, and his girl's brain was out of control.
"That's it, what a pity." Amy nodded sadly.
Although she didn’t know what Amy was feeling sorry for, Mag still began to tell the story of Snow White in a gentle and low tone:
"In the severe winter, the feather-like snow was flying in the sky. The queen sat by the window, looking at the white snow, and made a wish..."
Snow White's tragic life began with this beautiful wish. Because of her beauty, she was jealous of the new queen and was kidnapped into the forest. She met seven dwarfs, but she still could not escape from the queen's clutches. She was almost strangled to death and then almost killed. Killed by a poisonous comb...
Amy and Anna were completely immersed in Mag's story. They were worried about Snow White's life and death, and their anger towards the evil queen fluctuated with the story.
However, when talking about Snow White eating the poisoned apple and dying as if in a deep sleep, Mag stopped.
As a father, he really couldn't tell them the original story, in which a necrophilic prince fell in love with Snow White's body, spent money to buy her body, and ended up with her.
This is not in line with his three views.
"Father, what happens next? Is Snow White really dead?" Amy looked at Mag sadly.
Anna on the side also had tears in her eyes. This Snow White was as pitiful as her.
Mag thought for a while and had an idea: "In the end, the seven dwarfs turned into seven gourds and were voluntarily refined into a pill. After Snow White took the pill, she came back to life and had He acquired seven magical abilities, returned to the palace, locked the queen in a dry well that would never see the light of day, broke the magic mirror, and became the new owner of the palace."
