The Princess Diaries [Comprehensive British and American]

Eric feels that life is really too difficult. He just wants to be a worker honestly, work hard from [-] to [-], work hard to make iron and steel, and strive to save enough money to buy a small house of his own one day, and then the whole family can live with him. Live in it beautifully...

It was such a simple wish, but the cruel God did not give him a chance to realize it, and even sent a handsome bald guy in a wheelchair to crush his dream, just like popping a fragile soap bubble.

In short, the X-Men worked hard, and after forcing out Eric's ability, they finally forced him to accept his identity as a mutant and believed in amnesia.

But Eric still does not admit that he is Magneto, he said that he has nothing to do with the law-breaking villain.

When he said this, Eric's firm attitude, firm eyes, and sincere tone made the corners of Professor X's mouth twitch, speechless.

"I almost believed him," Raven sighed, "if I didn't know what he was."

With a cigarette dangling from his mouth, Logan echoed vaguely, "I finally understand why he is always fooling around and doing things with him."

In order to prevent Eric from thinking about how to take the Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver out of Xavier School every day, and return to the steel factory that only existed in his distorted memory and did not exist in reality, Professor X waved his hand and spent huge sums of money. A special land was opened up in the backyard of the manor, and a small factory was built for Eric, allowing him to use his superpowers to make steel and iron every day, satisfying his desire to be an ordinary worker.

Eric finally calmed down. From then on, he was addicted to blacksmithing, unable to extricate himself, soaked in the small factory day and night, and refused other people to visit, making it mysterious.

Time soon came to Halloween, Xavier's school was on holiday on this day, the children all went to the city to have fun, and the adults followed suit. Only Eric refused to go out and insisted on staying to continue his unfinished business .

So Professor X had no choice but to stay as a housekeeper, and by the way, accompany an old guy who lost his memory and lost his mind.

But these Erics don't know that he has been isolated from the world for a long time, just for one thing - to make a Christmas gift for Wanda and Pietro.

Eric felt that he owed a lot to these two children and failed to watch them grow up, but he swore that he would walk with them in the future and the family would never be separated again.

When the moon was in the sky, Eric finally made all the small parts, and the next thing to do was to put the parts together.He put down his tools, stretched his waist, rubbed his eyes, and planned to go out and relax.

The campus was quiet and silent. Eric approached the main house under the moonlight. He remembered that there was a side door after turning the corner. Entering from here could save a long distance and save time and effort.

Weeds are overgrown under the stone steps, the wooden doors are old and mottled, and the handrails are covered with rust.A black crow crouched on the doorpost, its blood-red eyes quietly watching Eric, like a silent ghost.

But Eric didn't notice the abnormality, and he was a little dazzled by the long hours of labor.

He pushed open the door, stepped over the barrier... into the unknown.

In the living room, Professor X suddenly paused when he placed the chess pieces, his fingers snapped together, and he squeezed the crown of the kingdom tightly.

The amnesiac Magneto disappeared silently under the shadow of his thoughts.

Professor X made a decisive decision and rushed to the missing place of Magneto with a wheelchair. On the way, he called Mystique and others who were out playing to explain the situation and asked them to come back immediately.

"...Don't struggle anymore, it's useless for you to resist," the elf riding a shell chattered beside Eric, "When Snow White finishes the whole story, you can leave."

As expected, life is only worse and not the worst, Eric with a dark face, angrily tore at the skirt on his body, "Then at least change this dress for me!"

The elf shook her head, "No, a queen should look like a queen, be more elegant, put down the skirt, don't be careless!"

Eric suddenly grabbed the elf without warning.

It's a pity that the little elf was prepared for a long time, she flew high "swish", circled around Eric's head, and said with a smile: "I can't catch it!"

Eric was so angry that his liver hurt.He'd tried every means of escape since finding himself in this wretched place, but they'd all failed—the castle's carved doors and colorful glass windows didn't look solid, but no matter what Erik tried, None of them can cause damage to them, and there is a mysterious force in the dark that prevents him from leaving here with an undeniable attitude.

"As long as you do what you said, I can leave, right?" Finally Eric gave up. He walked through the corridor with his skirt in his hands, walked into another room along the route guided by the elf, and stood in the fog-covered room. In front of his sunglasses, "You better keep your word."

"My purpose has nothing to do with you, but who told you to open a specific door at a specific moment?" said the elf, "It's too late to quit now, I can only wait for the end of the story, come on, queen!"

Eric with a livid face took a deep breath and said coldly: "Mirror, mirror, tell me, who is...the most...beautiful...person in the world..."

The mirror was silent.

Eric gritted his teeth hard, "What's going on?!"

The elf smiled and replied: "Maybe you are not sincere? You ask again?"

Eric: "..." The man looked like he was going to kill someone.

Maybe it was frightened by the ferocious Eric, the fog covering the mirror finally dissipated, and Eric's...unhappy-looking face was reflected on the mirror.

"It's you," said a listless voice, sounding like a little boy who failed an exam and was invited by his parents, "You are the most beautiful person."

The moment the voice fell, no matter whether it was Xiao Qiao in the mirror or Eric outside the mirror, they were shocked by this sentence.

After confirming that this is the manor left by her mother, Adele felt complicated, as if a group of alpacas were running wildly past, leaving a mess on the ground.

She really didn't know what expression to put on, so she could only ask with a dull face: "Mom, what do you want to do? Is this a Halloween present for me?"

"You say yes," said the elf, holding her face in both hands, "I just want you to feel the beauty of love! You've been away for so long, haven't you met someone who makes your heart beat?"

Adele walked out with a heavy skirt, "I assume you remember that I am only 12 years old now."

"What's wrong with being 12 years old? When we met your father, we were both only eight years old." The elf flew around Adele like a lively bird, "Besides, your 12 years old is only temporary, In fact, you are already a big child, you have to learn to find your own love."

"My goal is to gain my father's approval, break the seal and regain power, not fall in love." Adele's eyes flashed, "Speaking of this, I have a question to ask you—"

"Ah!" The elf screamed and interrupted Adele's question. She pushed Adele's shoulder hard and pushed her into the reception room.

The closed door was knocked open with a "bang", and Jason, who was checking the firmness of the window, turned his head abruptly. He picked up the only weapon currently available-a spade, and assumed a defensive posture.

After seeing the person's appearance clearly, Jason froze, "You—"

"It's you." Adele was relieved to meet a familiar person.

Looking around, Adele found that the elf had disappeared. She opened the chair and sat down. She bent down and took off the hard crystal slipper with a five-inch heel. While kneading her throbbing ankle, she Began to doubt the mother's real purpose.

Adele didn't believe what Bruce said, but the elf's eagerness to change the subject made her suspicious.

"You know me?" Jason looked at Adele suspiciously, and the more he looked, the more he felt that something was wrong.

The girl with the crown did look a bit like someone Jason had seen, but he couldn't quite figure out who it was.This shouldn't be, after all the girl is so beautiful, if he has seen it, he will never forget it.

unless……

"I haven't seen you for a few minutes, you don't know me anymore." Adele hesitated for a moment between putting on her shoes and continuing to suffer, and taking off her shoes to let herself go, and chose the latter.She first tested it with her toes to confirm that the carpet was soft enough, then she stepped on it with her bare feet and stood up while leaning on the back of the seat.

Jason opened his eyes slightly, and said a name that he himself found unbelievable: "Adele?"

"Yes," Adele nodded, "but please call me 'Snow White' now."

Her skin is fairer than snow, her lips are as bright as flowers, she is indeed very good-looking, but...

"Snow White's hair is black," Jason said.

Adele: "Huh?"

Jason: "..."

Jason didn't know why he would say such a sentence suddenly, maybe his brain had a twitch, so he quickly made up a sentence to change the subject, "What the hell is going on?!"

Knowing that there was no elf around Jason, Adele showed a thoughtful expression. She organized her words and briefly explained the ins and outs of the incident.

"That is to say, we can only leave after the story is finished?" Jason raised his eyebrows, "Then what are you waiting for?"

"I haven't seen Snow White, so I don't know what's going to happen next," Adele said helplessly. "What role are you playing?"

Jason lowered his head and tugged at the hem of his clothes, and pulled out a mess of tools from his belt, including a small shovel, a small pair of scissors, a small hoe, and a bunch of seeds.

Judging by the vicious eyes he has cultivated through years of travel, this attire should be a standard... "Gardenist?"

"But there is no mention of the gardener in Snow White," Jason rubbed his chin in deep thought, "it should be a passing mention, it doesn't matter—"

"No," Adele shook her head, "Since mother arranged it like this, you must have a need to exist, otherwise you won't even be able to enter the door."

The two of you looked at me and I looked at you, Jason took the lead to look away.

Adele: "...what's wrong?"

"Don't stare at me, thank you," Jason raised his hand to shield his face.

Adele was a little dazed.

"Did you meet anyone else besides me?" Jason asked. "The kid from Superman's house wasn't with you?"

"That's right, Xiao Qiao!" Adele clapped her hands suddenly, "We should have come in together...Let's go find him."

Before Jason could express his opinion, Adele grabbed his wrist and dragged him out of the reception room.

Jason was ready to hit the door, but to his surprise, the door was pushed open easily, as if he had kicked and kicked with all his strength before, but he couldn't shake the door at all. illusion.

"Wait," Jason hooked his wrist back, grabbing Adele who was running, and pointed to the window on the other side of the corridor, "Can you see if you can push it away?"

Although Adele didn't understand Jason's intentions, she obediently tried it.

The light-white fingertips touched the transparent glass, and there was a soft "squeak", and Adele pushed the window open without much effort.

"Okay," she looked back at Jason, "what do you want to do?"

Jason continued to ask, "How about climbing out?"

Adele: "...you let me crawl out in this?"

Jason glanced at Adele's thick skirt, feeling a little unkind.

"Let me do it." Jason walked to the window, raised his hand and stretched his arms out. When his fingertips were level with the window frame, an invisible external force pressed against his fingers, blocking the window in place.

"Can't you?" Adele saw the clue and frowned slightly. She tried to make the same move, but nothing stopped her.

"It seems that we can't take shortcuts." Jason sighed, and made a gesture of invitation to Adele, "Let's go."

The entire old castle was empty, and no one else seemed to exist. The two of them searched aimlessly from room to room for a long time, but found nothing.

When passing by the courtyard, Adele was too tired to walk and asked for a rest.

"What the hell is this place? Is there no third person?" Adele sat on the edge of the flower bed panting, with one hand she supported the branch of the bonsai shrub to keep her balance, and the other hand kept pressing her chest up and down.

Jason asked suspiciously, "Are you feeling bad?"

"This skirt is too tight," Adele tried to catch her breath, "I can't breathe."

Indeed—Jason's eyes wandered to Adele's waist—her waist is now so thin that I can hold it with one hand, which is too exaggerated.

Jason cast a sympathetic gaze at Adele. After all, compared to the fatally swinging princess dress on Adele, his gardener's suit was at best a bit worn out, but it didn't affect his actions at all.

Adele slowed down for a moment, feeling more comfortable, she picked up her skirt and jumped off the flower bed, "I'm fine, let's go."

"You...don't wear shoes?" Jason couldn't help asking.

"The five-inch stiletto heels are made of crystal," Adele said quietly, "I think it's better to take them off."

Jason followed Adele's description and imagined for a while, feeling inexplicably pain in his feet.

In order to take care of Adele, the two moved very slowly, but gradually approached the exit of the castle.

"Going out?" Adele stood on tiptoe and looked out. As far as her eyes could see, there was a flat road with trees of the same height on both sides of the road, and a forest could be seen faintly ahead.

Jason thought for a moment, and suggested not to leave the palace yet.According to the story line of Snow White, the princess was taken to the forest by the hunter sent by the queen, and his occupation is a gardener, which should not trigger the main plot.

"It's nothing to try," Adele didn't care, she jumped through the unguarded doorway, stood outside the castle and waved to Jason, "Look, I just said—"

Suddenly, low-pitched horns sounded everywhere in the silent castle. Adele was startled, and ran back to Jason in a hurry.

A tide of soldiers emerged from every corner, holding long guns, lined up neatly, and rushed to the gate in a swarm.

"Come here! It's not good! Snow White has eloped with the gardener!"

"The queen gave an order, and they must be brought back!"

Adele & Jason: "..."

But it pissed me off, what is going on with these two people, one is more puzzled than the other.

Silly girl, if you can't run, why don't you ask Jason to hold you?

I've been able to help with this, alas...

Candidate No. 1 passes, I hope candidate No. 2 will be smarter.
