Chapter 373: Because She is Lin Sanjiu

Translator: BinBin92 Editor: EllisBLV13

It wasn't entirely accurate to say that this place was spooky

Lin Sanjiu alked through an alley under darkness' reign with her hands in her pockets and eyes on the surroundings As she ventured further through the alley, uneasiness seeped quickly into her hts

The visibility was poor, and the only thing that was particularly visible was the vast blanket of dust that hung heavily in the air The alley looked as if God had had a crisis of perfectionism and decided to take an eraser and remove the urban landscape, but Lin Sanjiu kneasn't true Behind the dense white dust were many twenty-four hour skyscrapers with chi that assaulted whosever nostrils with pungent ammoniacal scent There were puddles of filthy water here and there ah there was no rain The foul water splashed over the shins of all ere unfortunate enough to step on them

It seemed that dampness was the constant nuisance here for at least the past 50 years as the houses that sparsely scattered along the alley appeared to be badly in need of improvements Mildeled up their walls, and a thick layer of black stains streaked along the dingy brick walls, dripping off at the eaves around the height of Lin Sanjiu's eyebrows Even in the real world that had been ruined by the apocalypse, it was rare to see such a wasteland

The hem of Snow White's silky white satin dress had been smeared with brownish dark mud after they had traversed the alley for ten or so minutes While her dress looked pretty awful, her expression was even viler

The dwarfs had stopped on the urban fringe and did not escort their princess back to her castle While they alking, Lin Sanjiu cast a sidelong glance at her co whether or not she should ask the question that lingered in herto the wind and get straight to the matter, "You were born here? No offense, Snow White, but you and the city look like two different cartoons…"

"The hell are you talking about?! How dare you codom to this filthy piece of land!" Snow White's voice was ear-splitting, "The sky aboveOur strea their merry way around the forest Our forests are dense, full of lush, green trees that ht be s like this! I don't know this place!"

"A likely story" Lin Sanjiu stopped , "Guessnow"

Hearing her reply, Snow White turned into Snow Red Her skin flushed red, and her delicate oval face greretched with nervousness, "No, that's not what I meant I know this place, but… Hey, don't leave! Okay, fine, fine, you win This place was dom, but it was never like this before—"

Lin Sanjiu kne White had been hiding sorasp of the whole story She had only wanted toa deaf ear to Snow White's nonsense that wasn't going to end soon, she tore a piece of paper from the wall of a residential house

It seeh for the dirt to accuh huy and lost the resilience paper should have Yellow stains covered the surface of the paper ible Lin Sanjiu raised her head and realized there wereall the way fro until the end of the alley on the wall of every house

Then, she lowered her head and again looked at the page Shaking the paper to get a better look, Lin Sanjiu decided to take a closer look Concurrently, Snow White had stoppedShe stood on her toes and craned her neck to look at the paper as well

After a , Lin Sanjiu lowered her hand, and an almost ludicrous expression of astonishment spread over her face

It required a strenuous amount of effort to differentiate the words beneath the mildew and stain If her eyes didn't fail her, the paper in her hand was a poster for an election

At the bottom of the poster, there was "VOTE FOR" printed in extra bold font It see the voters After Lin Sanjiu squinted, she was able to distinguish the long and unfamiliar western name behind the call to action

"McDuck?"

Lin Sanjiu was taken aback by what she saw She quickly glanced over the yellow stain, and she finally understood why the stain appeared in the same spot in all posters

She turned her head and stared into Snow White, "Scrooge McDuck is your dad?"

The young lady's two cherry red lips gaped into an "O" She didn't seee, "What do you mean? Are you dumb?"

"Look at it yourself," Lin Sanjiu snarled and shoved the poster into Snow White's face, "This poster was printed by Scrooge McDuck when he was co for this country's presidency!"

Lin Sanjiu soe McDuck was the uncle of Donald Duck and an incredibly wealthy businessperforht flashed into her e McDuck is rich Not ordinary rich, but extremely rich Of course he can compete for a country's presidency with his wealth Guess not even Cartoon World could escape frodoain A few ravens flew into the sky from a roof not far away from them, "Where is my father? Where is my stepmother? What has happened to the that Lin Sanjiu would give her the answer Since Lin Sanjiu couldn't answer her, she had to find the answer her own Lifting the hem of her dress in one hand, she rushed forward in a hurry Lin Sanjiu sighed before stretching her legs and following after Snow White

Although the city had been expanded at least three or four times, the castle still stood staunchly at the heart of the city as a land their way several ti the aiven job poorly in their minds, Lin Sanjiu and Snow White finally found the correct path that led the at the castle from a distance, Snow White's anxiety-ridden expression eased a little bit

Lin Sanjiu had never set foot in this city before, but even as a first-time visitor, she could see that in the loo people a look through ti was pure white as if it was built of jadestone The delicately constructed rooftops spelled the word fantasy and stood steadfast at a different height in the haze The occasional flashes of gold cas and adornment

"This castle matches your mien better," Lin Sanjiu said to Snow White fro clean while the air is so full of dust?"

"You are not froroup of people specifically tasked to wipe and clean the facade of the castle…" Just as Snow White replied to Lin Sanjiu, a group of people with rags on their faces, each of the tools, swar, they then began to clean the castle starting fro beings, asides from rats, ravens, and the faces that shilly-shallied behind s after she stepped into this city

"Let's go," she tugged at Snow White's sleeve, "Since we're here, we e McDuck is, and where your father is"

However, Snow White didn't budge

Lin Sanjiu stopped and looked over her shoulder at the young th, Snow White wasn't somebody who needed people to tote her around Despite that, the young maiden looked like her soul had ascended from her mortal body She had a stunned look on her face, and she refused to move an inch — her lassy stare, Lin Sanjiu saw a short, dirty, old geezer sturew closer and closer
