Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 142 Cinderella's Happy Life
To be honest, no matter how confusing this dungeon has been, this is still the first time Lin Sanjiu has seen the "magic" in fairy tales with his own eyes.

Lila's scream still seemed to be echoing in her head—this was the second hero in distress—she tried to gather herself, and although she didn't know if it was going to help, she stood motionless in the shadows , trying to slow down her breathing and heartbeat, hoping that the other party would not pay attention to her.

The soldier guarding Cinderella's room had passed out long ago, and was lying limp on the ground, motionless.Looking through the crack of the door, between Lin Sanjiu and Cinderella, there was a back figure floating in mid-air, covered in a halo.

The man was dressed in a dusty robe, and his hunchback was raised high, like a turtle shell.The dry and disheveled hair was formed into clumps of gray lumps, hanging down from the back, and the wrinkled skin exposed under the robe was no better to be seen than the hair.Fairy's unique transparent wings look like the stumps of two dead flies.

Although Fairy has all the characteristics, no matter how you look at it, Lin Sanjiu doesn't think that the "fairy godmother" in fairy tales should look like this.

Because she was blocked by this figure, she couldn't see Cinderella's expression.The shadow of Leila was like a drowning person, ups and downs in her mind, and was finally pushed down by Lin Sanjiu.She listened attentively to every word Cinderella said in the room—"I, I know, but the person who brought me to the palace is not a prince at all..."

"Oh dear, don't worry about it anymore," the figure from the back startled Lin Sanjiu as soon as he spoke—because it was clearly an old man's voice, it was hoarse and greasy. : "The deal we made at the beginning was to allow you to be with the prince, and you paid the price. This goal will not change..."

When he said this, he seemed to think of something interesting, and giggled like a girl for a while.

In this case, it is obviously not able to comfort Cinderella.Her voice was full of anxiety: "Well... I can trust you, right?"

The old man raised a hand, and while picking his long gray nails, he replied: "Of course. Your request is to get rid of the past life and be with the prince...don't worry, I never break my promise, although a little It’s a bit of a twist, but it’s about to happen.”

"Thank you, thank you!" Hearing such a clear promise, Cinderella was finally relieved and let out a sigh of relief: "This is so strange now, it scares me a little... Oh, yes, you came to the palace for Looking for me?"

The old man laughed "hee hee" twice, "... there is a poor young man who only wants amazing wealth and status but can't get it. I'm here to make a deal with him."

"Is he from the palace?"

While listening to Cinderella's nonchalant question, Lin Sanjiu quietly took a step back into the distance.

It's fine to say that she judges people by their appearance, but she is full of distrust for this old fairy.Why did the palace steward and another person kidnap Cinderella, just ask them themselves?

Although her movements were silent, they were very quick - not long after, Lin Sanjiu had already turned the corner, leaving the room quite a distance away.

It was also because of this that when the voice of the old man and the fairy reached her ears, it was a little erratic: "... Oh no, my dear. Because his... has a strange color, and he is making fun for others in the circus troupe, and he is more like a clown You were much worse then..."

Lin Sanjiu paused.

What color is weird?
A vague idea popped up in her heart, which was confirmed by Cinderella's raised voice in surprise: "Huh? So there are people with beards born with this color in the world?"

blue beard!You can't go wrong!
Listening to the old man's voice muttering something like "wife, not a lot", Lin Sanjiu's heart seemed to brighten up a lot—she finally sorted out the context of this fairy tale copy.Presumably, Bluebeard made a deal with the old man and fairy in Cinderella's palace, and became a rich man on the wealthy side, and only then did the story of marrying Lila and others later...

Presumably killing Lyra and dedicating her mirror to the king is also something that will happen in the future in this "Cinderella story line".

If you can find Bluebeard and kill him first, then the future Lyra will be saved!

With a calculation in mind, Lin Sanjiu felt heaved a sigh of relief.

The conversation in the room was still going on, just at this time a jumping fire came from not far away, she hurriedly picked up the unconscious soldier on the ground, and quietly retreated into the corner.Two maids passed by her one after the other, each holding a plate in his hand, and the other carrying a lamp.

When the sound of their footsteps reached the door, Cinderella's room suddenly fell silent.After a few seconds, her uneasy voice came out: "Who, who is outside?"

"I am here to deliver dinner to Miss Ira by the order of the headmaster." A maid said respectfully.

Ella was Cinderella's real name - to humiliate her, her two older sisters changed her name to Cinderella, which means "Cinderella".Hearing this name that she hadn't heard for a long time, Cinderella couldn't help being excited—her voice suddenly choked up, and she took a few sniffs before saying, "Okay, thank you."

When they pushed open the door, Lin Sanjiu's gaze fell in. As expected, only Cinderella was left in the room.

Go find Bluebeard now, and you may just bump into the old man fairy.Even though her combat power has increased greatly now, she doesn't want to face magic recklessly—if she is turned into a mouse or something, it will be too late to regret—after thinking about it, Lin Sanjiu still set her target on On the head of the royal palace.

Although the royal palace is not big, it is not an easy task to find it floor by floor and room by room.

It is a little strange that the main rooms and palaces in the palace are hung with large black curtains for decoration. In addition to providing many hiding places for Lin Sanjiu, it also dyes the atmosphere in the palace. heavy.

Following the dark road, Lin Sanjiu came to the door of a side hall.

The serious voice that was once heard at Cinderella's house was faintly leaking out from the gap between the two doors. It must be the steward of the palace—what was said, but I couldn't make out clearly.Lin Sanjiu knocked out the guard at the door, walked lightly to the door, pushed aside the black curtain, and put his ears on the door.

"...His Royal Highness Sid, please accept your condolences." The steward's voice sounded very deep, as if the speaker was also immersed in grief, trying to hold himself together: "Now that the eldest prince is gone, the future of the country depends on you ..."

"Brother, his death is so unworthy!" A young man's voice pierced the air like a knife. There was something extreme in his voice, which made people want to back away after hearing it.After he said such a sentence, it seemed that he couldn't continue, and the manager hurriedly gave a few words of comfort.

Lin Sanjiu waited patiently for a while, only to hear Prince Sid cheer up, and said again: "Is the coffin ready?"

"It's almost finished. Because I didn't expect this girl to be so thin and small, the previous mold seemed to be bigger, so I changed the coffin..."

"You are really too serious! This kind of thing, it doesn't matter if it's big or small—"

Prince Sid's eyes were red, and before he could finish speaking, he suddenly heard a bang, and before his eyes could react, his body was already knocked down by a force, his neck was tightly gripped, and even a cry of surprise came at once. The air was stuck in his chest.

It took several seconds for the manager to understand the current situation.He took a few steps back in a panic, and pulled out the prince's saber hanging on the wall. Before he could shout, the strange woman who was pressing on the prince calmly said, "Don't scream! You just need to make a sound!" , I'll strangle him."

The manager nodded blankly.

"You just said that a coffin would be prepared for a thin woman—who was it? Is she dead?"

Lin Sanjiu exerted all his strength with his arm, pressing down the desperate struggle of Prince Sid.He was a young man with a high forehead and thin hair, half of his face was covered with veins at this time - judging by his expression, it seemed that he would rather die than let the woman on him get away with it.

The steward was so frightened that he said a few words in succession, "Take it easy", and then he held his sword tightly and said, "...the coffin is for Cinderella!"

Even though he more or less guessed a little bit, Lin Sanjiu's expression changed slightly in shock.

"That woman is a sinner of this country!" The manager didn't know what to think of, and seemed to have forgotten the flushed Prince West Germany, with old tears streaming down his face: "His Royal Highness Peter, who is about to take over the throne, has never met her since he met her." From then on, I thought about it day and night...even for a shoe she left behind, I went on the road in person, looking for a girl who could wear this shoe across the country. As a result, as a result, something happened..."

Lin Sanjiu was stunned when he heard this, and his subordinates couldn't help but relax a little.As soon as the air entered Sid's trachea, he said hoarsely: "My brother was still on the road in the rainy night in order to find her as soon as possible... He was bitten to death by a wild animal!"

"Anyway, I want that woman to be buried with me!" Sid's flushed face turned blue, and his eyes protruded from the short-term lack of oxygen, looking crazy.

Rainy Night... Beast...

"Tell me the details—" Lin Sanjiu's face was very ugly, and he tightened his hands.As soon as Sid uttered a short beep, the manager hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness Peter seems to have seen an injured person on the side of the road, and he was attacked when he went to rescue him! Beside him, there is an intestinal piercer Poor hunter—"

That's right——

The three stories are finally connected.Lin Sanjiu thought about it carefully. In this way, the story of Little Red Riding Hood happened first, followed by Cinderella, and finally Lila...

This was a big improvement—she took a breath, and was about to withdraw her hand when her gaze froze on a familiar piece of furniture.

"Second question, that silver mirror... who brought it?"

Lin Sanjiu asked dryly.

Yes, that was Lyra's mirror.
