Chapter 258 New Clothes
As soon as she saw Yu Sheng's expression change, Irene quickly leaned over and glanced at the screen to know what was going on. The little doll raised its head, and its eyes were full of excitement and excitement: "Oh no - what's the matter, you don't go to meet your netizens, and your netizens come to see you..."
Yu Sheng didn't have time to deal with the puppet's weirdness at this time. He looked at the message on the screen and clenched his teeth, looking very worried: "I'm telling you, I have a bad premonition. It's too ominous..."
"Spiritual intuition is jumping?"
"That's not the case, but maybe it's beyond the scope," Yu Sheng said seriously and tangledly, "Or maybe I'm overthinking it. There aren't necessarily such coincidences in the world, right..."
"Then I can only agree. After all, you are so worried." Irene sat on the table with legs crossed, looking at Yu Sheng curiously, "Then what are you going to do? Make up an excuse to disappear? Anyway, we are not that close - how about you just open a door and find a deserted planet to survive for a few days, and say you are going out for an investigation - after all, if it really happens that way, it will be too embarrassing."
"It's easy for you to say that. I'd rather face the netizen who came to meet me with a knife than to survive in the wilderness of a deserted planet." Yu Sheng glared at the puppet, then made up his mind, "Hey, let's meet, what can we do? Don't say it might not be such a coincidence. If it is such a coincidence, it's good. I don't have to worry about it in the future."
As he spoke, he replied on the border communication: "Okay, it's certainly a good thing to have someone who knows the business come to chat, but where should we meet? Do you need an address? The place I live is a bit remote, and most people can't find it..."
After a while, the evil disciple Siqian sent a reply: "It's okay, I have some connections with the Secret Service Bureau. When my disciple arrives, I will ask them to help arrange it. You just wait for the news."
After exchanging a few more words, Yu Sheng put down his phone and breathed a long sigh of relief.
There is a feeling that a wish has been fulfilled and enlightenment has been achieved.
The little doll came over, looked at Yu Sheng's face from left to right, and after a long while, he said, "You are going to have a bloody disaster!"
"I bleed every now and then, but that's not a disaster," Yu Sheng reached out and slapped away Irene's two claws, picked up the small skirt that had just been sewn on the table and handed it to her, "Try it on, I made the back a little looser for you, removed the hot melt glue and re-sewn it with thread, it should be as comfortable to wear as normal clothes now."
"Oh, okay!" Irene was instantly happy, holding her skirt and jumping off the table, "I'll change... change... ah, there's no place to change clothes in the attic, I have to go downstairs."
"Why waste your time?" Yu Sheng casually grabbed a large cardboard box that was used to store sundries, stood it up and put it on the ground. "Why not just change it in here? There's a hole on the side, and there's no light inside."
"Oh, then you are not allowed to peek!"
Yu Sheng waved his hands helplessly.
The doll went into the box to change clothes. After a rustling sound, Irene, wearing a new purple dress, came out with a big smile on her face. She turned around proudly in front of Yu Sheng and said, "It looks good, doesn't it?"
"It's nice, it's nice. I've seen it once before. It's quite suitable," Yu Sheng praised casually. "Does it still irritate me?"
"No more tickling!" Irene said happily, and climbed up the table along Yu Sheng's legs. "You have good skills. Maybe you can become a professional puppeteer in the future?"
"I do what I want to do. I have some self-awareness of my craft. It's already quite impressive that I can fix things for you and make a usable body for you," Yu Sheng said casually. "If I really became a puppet master, I would starve to death."
Irene thought about it, and then jumped into a new topic: "By the way, did that evil disciple tell you when his apprentice would come?"
"They say it will take at least five or six days, not only because of the long journey, but also because of the formalities," Yu Sheng said, waving his hand. "I have never traveled far, let alone lived outside the border area, so I don't understand their process, but it sounds like it's quite troublesome for 'outsiders' to come to this border city."
"It's a border area after all... I guess this is the place with the highest security level in the entire universe."
In the next two days, Yu Sheng finally had a peaceful life, at least days without any unexpected events.
The "netizen" on the other side of the starry sea is still on the way to handle the formalities, there is no new news from the Secret Service in the short term, the room at the end of the corridor on the second floor is temporarily quiet, and no alien land suddenly opens a door on the street, and no entity rushes into the kitchen of No. 66 Wutong Road.
Hu Li leads a leisurely life where he waits for the next meal after eating, and finds Yu Sheng to comb his tail when he has nothing to do. Ai Lin, on the other hand, leads a high-spirited life every day in the cycle of "confronting stupid netizens - account blocked - account unblocked - confronting stupid netizens". She occasionally indulges in new idiotic online skits or low-cost variety shows, and her life can be considered fulfilling.
Yu Shengze finally finished writing a manuscript that he had been overdue for a long time - this time the protagonist of his story no longer rides a motorcycle. Although motorcycles are very cool, he still reluctantly replaced the male protagonist with an alpaca.
The editor was obviously shocked, but what was even more shocking was that he actually accepted the manuscript. This made Yu Sheng even doubt for a moment that the saying "delaying manuscript submission can increase the acceptance rate" might be true, and he decided to try a different three-wheeled vehicle for the male lead next time...
On the other side, in that valley, the "fairy tale" children were also living well, and everything was gradually getting on track.
The aid engineering team has withdrawn, and Little Red Riding Hood leads a group of super middle school students to take over the subsequent home construction work.
In fact, Mr. Sun was quite unhappy when he left that day. He felt that as an adult he should be responsible to the end and should not leave the task of "rebuilding homes" to a group of half-grown children. However, this simple idea was half-returned after he saw the "Royal Masonry Association" summoned by the king. Then he saw the efficiency of the seven powerful Thunder Titans in building the house, and the remaining half was also held back.
After confirming that everything in the valley was on track, Yu Sheng was ready to complete something he had planned before: opening an additional stable portal to the outside world in the center of the "town".
After all, Little Red Riding Hood and her friends couldn't stay in the valley forever. They needed to go out sometimes. The board employees represented by Teacher Su also had to go off work every day. Now, when people went in and out, they either had to ask Yu Sheng to help open the door, or they had to go through the fixed passage on the portal platform and then come out from the basement of No. 66 Wutong Road - these two methods were obviously not a long-term solution.
Early in the morning that day, Yu Sheng took Irene and Hu Li to the valley.
Near the shack in the "town", they saw a construction site bustling with activity.
A large area of new foundation has been "grown". A group of "kingdom craftsmen" who are dressed as if they came out of a storybook and whose words and actions are as stiff as puppets but whose work is done accurately are measuring the ground and marking it. Snow White and several "parents" seem to be discussing some planning issues for the subsequent construction at the edge of the construction site, while the summoned Thunder Titans are stacking huge building materials on the site where houses are to be built, just like playing with building blocks. Those building materials include big trees from the Black Forest, huge stones from distant castles, and large quantities of steel bars and cement that the Secret Service had previously transported over.
Yu Sheng also saw a giant wearing steel armor sitting next to the construction site, holding a tree trunk in one hand and slowly cutting the tree with his "dagger" in the other hand, just like sharpening a pencil. He watched for a long time before realizing that the "wooden stick" in the giant's hand was actually a beam...
There were several cut beams next to the giant.
A voice sounded beside Yu Sheng: "I heard from the 'King' that these roughly processed woods cannot be used directly. They need to be dried and dehydrated and then carbonized on the surface. Under normal circumstances, it takes a long time, so we have to build a drying room first. Among the Titans summoned by Snow White, there is one who can play with fire. We can go in and speed up, but it requires precise control. It sounds very troublesome...but it insists that it will give it a sense of accomplishment..."
When Yu Sheng turned around, he saw Rapunzel standing next to him, looking in the direction of the construction site with him.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The girl turned around with a bright smile on her face: "Brother, are you here to look for Red Riding Hood?"
Yu Sheng was stunned: "How do you know?"
"You have an aura of someone who is here to do something serious..."
Yu Sheng: “?”
Rapunzel bared her teeth, turned towards the town, and shouted, "Red Riding Hood—Sister Red Riding Hood—"
Then Yu Sheng saw a figure running out of the town, surrounded by shadowy wolves, and in the blink of an eye, he jumped nearby: "What are you howling about! You can't send a message!"
Rapunzel raised her hand and pointed, "Brother is looking for you."
Yu Sheng greeted Little Red Riding Hood with a smile, then his expression froze.
The girl in front of me changed her clothes today.
She was not wearing her iconic red coat, but a thick blue and white coat. The coat was plain in style and loose in shape, with a line of words embroidered on the chest - XX High School...
Yu Sheng: “…”
Little Red Riding Hood noticed the gaze falling on her, she looked down, and when she looked up again, she had a bright smile on her face: "How is it? This is my school uniform~~~"
Yu Sheng thought about it and said nothing.
Irene was straightforward: "To be honest, it's pretty ugly."
"Yes, it is quite ugly, haha," Little Red Riding Hood laughed happily, "but I also want to wear it occasionally - after all, I used to wear that red coat almost every day, and sometimes I would change my clothes and wear it one day, and my nails would start to become pointed the next day... Now I am not afraid of that anymore."
As she spoke, she turned around again.
"Well, it's still quite ugly after all," she said happily.
