Chapter 66: A Beautiful Morning on the Lost Country
"Alice! Mind your head!"
The beautiful morning on the Lost Home began with the captain's angry roar on the deck.
Duncan stood outside the captain's room and raised his finger to point to the doll's head hanging on a nearby beam. His eyes twitched for a long time before he finally saw a doll's body wearing a dark purple gothic dress standing up from the side in a hurry.
Take off the head hanging in the air.
As a crisp "pop" sound came from the air, Miss Doll put her head back on her head, then trotted over and said, "Hehe..."
"Hey hey what hey hey, why are you hanging your head on my door this early in the morning?" Duncan stared at this cursed doll that comes to life every now and then. To be honest, he opened the door so early in the morning and saw a head floating in the wind at the door. Who is this?
Don't you want to be frightened? Fortunately, he has been on this ship for a long time and his nerves are stronger than before. Otherwise, he might have lost his temper. "Don't tell me that you are on the lookout - there are pigeons on guard!"
"I washed my hair this morning..." Alice shrank her neck and replied cautiously, "I can't get my hair to dry, so I just wanted to hang it higher to blow some air..."
Duncan: "..."
Alice glanced at Duncan carefully: "Captain...are you angry?"
"You...are reasonable." Duncan held it in for a long time, and finally could only get out this sentence from his bronchus. While restraining the trembling of the muscles on his face, he had to admit that at least from the life of Alice, the "abnormal 099"
Judging from the way it is, there is nothing wrong with hanging your head higher to blow in the wind - the winch on the ship even takes a nap as a habit, and the bucket used to wipe the deck rolls to the stern of the ship to bask in the sun every afternoon. Living on this ship is essential.
Just be generous.
From this perspective, Alice, a doll who has adapted to life on the ship, is now really "integrated" with the ship...
"It's good that you're not angry, Captain!" Alice immediately laughed. She seemed to have not only adapted to the life on the ship, but also adapted to or understood the captain's temper. She was still in awe of this powerful ghost captain, but she didn't
Just like at the beginning, she only had pure fear, but now she seemed to be more relaxed, and even dared to bargain with the captain, "Then I can still hang my head..."
"No - anywhere except the door to the captain's cabin. Find a place by yourself." Duncan glanced at the puppet, "I don't want to see the heads of the crew hanging on the door or the headless bodies hanging on the door as soon as I open the door.
Wandering forward."
Alice could only lower her head honestly: "Oh, okay."
Duncan still looked at her with a thoughtful expression.
"Captain?" Alice was a little confused by the other party's look, "Why do you keep staring at me..."
"I just suddenly thought of a question," Duncan said while thinking, "You will lose your hair, right? Will it also fall when you wash your hair? Then...will you grow hair?"
Alice was stunned for a moment, her expression was like that of the pigeon Ai Yi who was suddenly stuck.
After a long time, her eyes suddenly opened, and she looked at Duncan in astonishment: "I...I...I haven't thought about this problem at all! Captain, you..."
She almost cried in the second half of her sentence, and she didn't dare to say the last few words. She actually wanted to ask, "Captain, are you a devil?" but she was afraid that Mr. Goathead would scold him for underestimating the captain after she said this.
Powerfully and excessively beautify the image of the first natural disaster at sea...
Duncan didn't care what Alice swallowed back in the end. His thoughts had already spread out: "Look, although you can walk, jump and talk, your body is still like a real doll. No.
You need to eat, you don’t need to drink water, and even if a joint falls off, you can press it back on. So, can I understand that your hair is a non-renewable resource, and it will become bald if you wash it too much... and comb your hair too much?"
Alice almost cried: "Captain, why would you think of such a terrible thing..."
Duncan: "Actually, I've been wanting to ask you since you cooked that bowl of fish head soup."
Although Alice was sad, she was still stunned for a moment after hearing this: "But what I cooked was just fish soup..."
Duncan said confidently: "Nonsense, there is fish, head and soup in it, why isn't it fish head soup?"
Alice: "...Captain, you are reasonable."
The beautiful morning on the Lost Home begins with everyone recognizing each other's rationality.
Miss Doll left in a daze. She seemed to suddenly have something important to think about that involved the future of her life. Duncan felt happy. He blew in the sea breeze and then ate a simple breakfast - the content was yesterday
The fish fillets baked by Alice herself, the shredded cheese, and the spirits from the city-state of Pland are not very delicious, but they are currently the top of the meals on the Lost Home.
In the chart room of the captain's cabin, the goat head looked at Duncan who was in a happy mood curiously: "Captain, what happened to Miss Alice? I noticed that she returned to the cabin absentmindedly, and bumped into the door twice when she returned to her room.
Go...she seems to be worried?"
"She is facing a major life challenge. I think you won't have to worry about her fighting with the weird things on the ship for a long time," Duncan said, shaking the glass in his hand with a mischievous look on his face.
Smile, "But I am really curious about one thing..."
"Ah? What are you curious about?"
"Will the cursed doll really turn into a bald doll if its hair falls out?" Duncan seriously discussed with the goat head, "Should this kind of extraordinary thing have some extraordinary power to ensure... hmm
, to ensure a certain state? Unfortunately, before I could discuss it with Alice, she ran away."
Goat head: "..."
Duncan glanced curiously at this guy who was always noisy: "Why don't you talk?"
The goat head held it in for a long time, and finally said: "You are truly the most terrifying natural disaster in the boundless sea... I can't ask you such a question even if I kill you."
Duncan shrugged and stood up from behind the navigation table.
"I want to leave again," he said to the goat head, and at the same time he snapped his fingers, and a bunch of green flames exploded out of thin air. Ai, the dove in the form of an undead bird, descended from the flames and landed on his shoulder, "
As usual, you are responsible for steering the ship."
"Yes, Captain, your loyal omission will not disappoint you!" Goat Head immediately agreed with a rising tone, and then asked curiously, "Captain, you seem to be... very keen on walking in the spirit world recently?
Is there something on land that interests you?"
Duncan did not answer immediately, but thought for a moment before speaking: "I suddenly discovered recently that after a century of development, the world has become a little more interesting."
This was his response after weighing: This sentence did not reveal any clear-directed information, nor did it expose his lack of knowledge. At the same time, it reasonably laid a lead that would allow him to pay more attention to land in the future.
The behavior of the world is more normal, and when necessary, it can also be used as a "reasonable motive" for the Lost Home to return to the civilized world.
And this answer should not violate the image of "Captain Duncan" too much.
The biggest natural disaster in the boundless sea can also be a happy person - because the happy person is compatible with all things.
As expected, the goat head had no abnormal reaction, as if all the decisions made by Captain Duncan were taken for granted: "Oh, you are right, after all these years, those weak city-states should have something to interest you.
It’s normal that you want to use it to relieve your boredom... In this case, should the Homeless Ship make preparations? Which one do you plan to invade? Pland? Lensa? Or the frost further north? "
Duncan nodded secretly in his mind as he listened to the first half of Goat Head's words, thinking that this number one loser really knew how to figure out what was going on, but when he heard the second half, his blood began to run cold - this guy's cooperation turned into a direct confrontation.
, he had to interrupt quickly: "When did I say that I was going to invade the city-state? Something interesting has just appeared, wouldn't it be a pity to destroy it?"
"Ah... yes, you are saying that my suggestion was too reckless," Goat Head immediately changed his words, "Actually, I thought you planned to drive a boat there in the future... Of course, since you have no such idea, then
This suggestion should be invalidated. In fact, this is also very good. After all, the big city-state still has some strength, and it is a bit risky to approach rashly..."
"Don't mention the invasion of city-states casually in the future." Duncan glanced at the goat head and added a layer of insurance uneasily, "We have been derailed from the world for a hundred years. Now I want to regain control of the changes in civilized society. This may
It involves a lot of long-term changes - don't make unnecessary plans until I have clear orders."
