353. The Dream of Dongcheng District
"Here? Dongcheng District? ”
Looking at the harsh environment full of dirt and mess around her, Cinderella frowned, facing the dirty path full of sewage, the girl couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and walk forward cautiously.
Although he has long known about the existence of Dongcheng District, and even his family's chamber of commerce has a large textile factory in Dongcheng District, Cinderella has never been here, and her father has never allowed the three sisters to come close here.
Cinderella didn't care about this, anyway, she had no interest in the family industry, and only thought about studying, but the two strong sisters often begged their father to take them to the factory, saying that they wanted to learn about the family industry as soon as possible, so that they could help their parents share their worries in the future.
It's just that both the father and the stepmother who wants to come and be obedient to the two sisters have a tough attitude towards them, just saying that they are not yet in time to contact these, and when they are older and adults, they will say this kind of thing I don't know how many times.
Therefore, the two sisters often feel very angry, they think that it must be because they are girls, so their parents will refuse their request, otherwise Henry next door is only sixteen years old? The birthday is still a little younger than theirs, but Henry's parents have already arranged for Henry to gradually take over the family business.
We're all about the same age, we're so much better than Henry's goofy guy, why should he go to the factory, but we can't?
After thinking about it, the sisters can only come up with one answer, that is, gender differences.
Henry is a boy, so it's okay, and they're girls, so it's okay.
The two sisters who think they have got the right answer are often angry about this, but they are helpless, after all, this era is like this, generally only boys can inherit the family business, and if it is a rich businessman like the father who only has daughters but no sons, he will choose to wait for his daughters to arrange a family affair for them as soon as they become adults, and then the son-in-law or grandson will be the heir to the family.
No matter how much the daughter of this era is pampered, but in the final analysis, in the hearts of adults, it is just a prop for marriage, it is so ruthless.
Although Cinderella didn't say it before, she actually agreed with her sisters' guesses, but she still didn't care much about it, after all, in her life plan, when she became an adult, she would leave the family and live alone, her father and stepmother couldn't arrange her, and she only wanted to control her life.
It's just that when Cinderella came to this never-before-seen Dongcheng District in person and saw the dirty mess here, she suddenly understood her parents' thoughts.
It's so chaotic here, it's too dangerous to let a girl come to this place, and if she were a parent, she would never want her daughter to come to such a ghost place.
Carefully avoiding the foul-smelling sewage under her feet in the dark alleys, Cinderella was a little nervous, the rats that walked in the corners of the walls disgusted her, but what worried her even more was that occasionally some drunks would sit in the corners and fall asleep in a daze, they exuded the smell of alcohol, and muttered some foul words in their mouths, as if they were talking in their dreams.
For Cinderella, who has received an aristocratic education since she was a child, she has never seen such a scene, and the three views have suffered a major impact for a while, after all, even if her stepmother calls her as a maid, but it is also a maid from a rich family in Xicheng District, and most of the people she comes into contact with on a daily basis are well-educated gentlemen and ladies, even if it is someone else's maid or something, those servants have also received vocational training from a professional housekeeping company, and most of them are very qualified and polite.
All of Cinderella is still a long way from the real bottom of society, and she doesn't know what the real bottom is like.
Therefore, Cinderella only felt that these drunks were too disgusting for a while, and she couldn't believe that there were still such people in the world, and these guys couldn't pay a little attention to their image and quality?
Resisting the discomfort, the girl hurried to leave the alley, but when she was about to reach the mouth of the alley, a drunken man on the other side suddenly staggered to his feet, and then looked around in confusion, he had seen the direction of Cinderella.
This suddenly made the girl's spirit tense, and she quickly pulled out the wand hanging from her waist and entered a state of alert.
After all, the dark alleys, the neatly dressed young and beautiful girls, and the stinking and vicious drunks, no matter how you think about these keywords, it will not be a scene of harmony and friendship.
Cinderella has made up her mind, and if the drunk dares to think anything about her, she will immediately turn this guy into a frog.
It's just that, to the girl's surprise, the drunk man didn't seem to see her, the empty eyes went straight through the girl, there was no focus at all, as if the girl didn't exist, he looked around in a daze, and was about to get up and leave, but he didn't take two steps, he was nauseous, and he threw up against the wall, and the foul smell of vomit made the already bad air even more unacceptable.
Anyway, Cinderella covered her nose and almost escaped from this small alley, but when she left, she deliberately did not avoid the drunk, and even deliberately kicked a tin can under her feet to make a noise, she wanted to see if the drunk really couldn't see her.
As a result, the drunkard heard the sound of the tin can, looked back at the can, and thought it was blown by the wind, so he didn't pay much attention to it, and continued to hold on to the wall and staggered away.
And Cinderella, who was still a little nervous throughout the whole process, relieved herself, she looked at her body a little strangely, it seemed that she was now invisible, and others couldn't see her.
What's going on?
The girl was a little puzzled.
"And why did I suddenly appear in Dongcheng District, and what was I doing before?"
Cinderella thought about it carefully, and then the memories of the previous one came flooding back to her mind.
My sister is missing.... Ask Mr. Merlin for help.... Potions .... Dream bubbles....
"Am I dreaming?"
The school girl quickly analyzed her state, and her consciousness became clear.
It's just that the girl originally thought that when she realized that she was dreaming, she should be awakened from the dream, but the reality is that she didn't wake up, but a sudden realization suddenly emerged in her heart, and a special feeling emerged from her heart.
It was as if something was calling to her not far away.
Cinderella looked up, and through the gaps between the countless staggered steam pipes overhead, she saw the huge steam energy tower in the center of the East City District, this landmark building in the East City District was spewing a huge amount of steam smoke, making the entire city foggy, and the huge roar of machinery was also resounding in the sky, even if she was far away from the energy tower, it was still clearly visible.
"It seems to be in the middle of the East Quarter, is it Freya and Louise?"
The school girl estimated the location of the thing that called to her, and guessed.
She almost understood her situation now, she was indeed dreaming now, and this strange dream was probably made by the witchcraft dream bubble that Teacher Merlin taught her, and if it was really that divination witchcraft at work, then the things that were calling her now were naturally the targets of this divination, that is, her two missing sisters.
Sure enough, those two sisters who were not reassuring were really in an accident, otherwise they wouldn't have appeared in the hellish place of Dongcheng District.
Knowing that the sisters are in Dongcheng District, and even know the approximate location, then the purpose of this divination has been achieved, and it stands to reason that Cinderella should go back immediately, and then call her teacher Merlin to save people.
However, the troublesome thing for the school bully girl is that she doesn't seem to know how to get out of this dream, and she doesn't know when this witchcraft will end, so she can't just stay where she is.
"Why don't you come any closer?"
Anyway, being idle is idle, and now it's a dream, and others can't see her, so there will be no accidents, so Cinderella is a lot bolder, she struggled a little a little, and then followed the telepathy, and began to slowly touch the depths of Dongcheng District.
