Chapter 198: Alice's First Day in the World

Duncan was a little creepy by the puppet's straight eyes, and after a few seconds, he finally couldn't help frowning and asked, "What are you looking at?" ”

Alice was honest: "Look at you." ”

Duncan looked confused: "What do I have to look at?" ”

"The first time I've seen you use ...... This look speaks," Alice looked incredulous, "Although you said before that you have another body and identity here, it still feels incredible to really see it!" Captain, you don't look like you're on a ship at all, you're not so tall, you're not so gloomy, huh...... Looks like a good person......"

Duncan's eyes widened when he heard this, but before he could say anything, Alice hurriedly added: "Ah, I shouldn't have slandered you, Captain......"

"How many times have you said it, don't mess with that goat's head! Praising others for being good is not denigrating – praising me is the same! Duncan stared at the criticism in front of him, feeling his brain tremble, "And forgot how I reminded him?" On the city-state's side, you can't be called 'Captain', you have to call Mr. Duncan or Mr. Storekeeper, remember? ”

Alice Spirit's head shrank suddenly: "Ah...... Ay! Remembered the ship...... Mr. Manager! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Why don't you just call Mr. Duncan," Duncan sighed tiredly, "Anyway, you're familiar with this name, and the probability of calling it wrong is relatively low." ”

"Oh, okay Mr. Duncan." Alice hurriedly bowed her head in agreement, but as soon as she was halfway down, she heard Duncan helplessly remind: "Don't bow your head, your head will fall off - if you drop your head in front of everyone, your city-state journey will be over." ”

Alice sighed, then frowned and thought for a while: "I seem to have heard Ai Yin Di muttering a sentence similar to what you just said, isn't that...... What it says is don't bow your head, the crown will ......"

"Do you have a crown on your head?!" Duncan glared, "You've got a wig on your headβ€”stronger than your head!" ”

Alice thought for a moment: "Hey, hey......"

Then she was silent for less than two seconds, and suddenly began to stare at Duncan again, this time saying it herself before the latter could speak: "Captain...... Can I touch your face? ”

Duncan looked puzzled: "I don't mind, but why?" ”

Alice had already started when she heard the word "don't mind", it seemed that after leaving Captain Duncan's majestic "body", the doll's courage had swelled unprecedentedly, she stepped forward and pinched Duncan's current body cheek, her eyes were full of surprise: "It's amazing! It's true! When I was on the boat, I looked at your face and felt carved out of stone! ”

Duncan felt extremely awkward, and said helplessly while dodging back: "Are you enough?" It's almost ......."

Before he could finish speaking, he heard two brisk footsteps coming from the direction of the staircase, followed by Nina's crisp and happy voice: "Uncle, I'm finished eating with Shirley!" What are you doing right here......"

Duncan turned his head expressionlessly, Alice's hand was still outstretched, Nina stood at the staircase on the second floor and stared at the scene by the counter in amazement, looking at the elegant and beautiful lady who appeared in the store at some point, looking like a noble lady in the upper city, Shirley almost hit Nina's head: "Hey, why did you stop suddenly?" ”

Alice immediately withdrew her hands, folded her hands on her laps, and sat in front of the counter with a straight and dignified upper body.

The board is like a gorgeous doll placed in the window of the Rose Human-shaped Pavilion.

Nina was stunned for a while before she reacted, and while hesitating to walk down the stairs, she cautiously looked at the beautiful lady sitting opposite Duncan, and Shirley, who was following her, also saw the situation on the first floor at this time, but Shirley was thinking about something else entirely-

"Dog, dog, look at what is sitting across from Mr. Duncan...... Is it human? Can you beat it? ”

Ah Gou's voice hesitated for a long time before it came, sounding extremely cautious: "I can't see clearly through your eyes, but the more I look at it, the less human it becomes...... I don't know if I can fight her, but I definitely won't fight her anyway. ”

Shirley was stunned: "Why?" You can't even see what it is, why are you so afraid? ”

"Nonsense! How dare she pinch Mr. Duncan's face! Ah Gou's voice sounded like death, "Just rush here, if she wants to stew me, I have to take the initiative to crack the wood......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Dog, you're getting more and more embarrassed. ”

"I call it judging the situationβ€”do you know how many human beings have spent their entire lives of wisdom trying to master this essence of existence?"

Shirley ignored the dog.

While she was talking, she and Nina had reached the first floor, and she saw Nina walk up to Duncan and the beautiful young lady, and hear their conversation.

"Uncle, who is this lady?"

Nina asked curiously, and subconsciously secretly looked at Alice on the side, with surprise and speculation in her heart - she had never seen such a beautiful lady, let alone a young lady who had such an intimate action with her uncle just now, and her eyes lit up slightly with strong curiosity.

"Oh, that's just the time to introduce," Duncan coughed lightly to ease the embarrassment, and then raised his hand with a determined face, "Her name is Alice, remember when I said I was going to hire another man in the store?" That's her. ”

After saying that, he immediately pointed to Nina and Shirley: "This is my niece, Nina, and this is Shirley who is temporarily living here during this time." ”

"Hello." Alice immediately took the initiative to say hello, this time she remembered Duncan's explanation, sat upright, nodded just right, restrained her detached posture, and greeted people in the most polite way.

But I don't know if it's a certain "texture" unique to the puppet that is difficult to erase, Alice's restrained posture fell into the eyes of Nina and Shirley, but it became an indescribable elegant upbringing, as well as a certain mysterious and introverted temperament.

The first meeting between the two girls and a certain Hanhan doll reaches an epic misunderstanding.

"You...... Hello," Nina swallowed a little nervously, nodding to Alice as if she was afraid of leaving a bad impression, "It's nice to meet you." ”

Shirley also followed closely to say hello, she was also a little nervous, but her nervousness came more from Ah Gou's words just now, "Hello, I'm also ...... It's a pleasure. ”

Then the scene froze, with faces tense on both sides, and no one spoke.

Shirley and Nina didn't know how to continue, and the beautiful and elegant lady in front of them barely looked like a person who would appear in the lower town, so much so that the two girls felt that whatever they said would upset Miss Alice.

Alice was even simpler - her mind was empty most of the time.

Rarely, the lake is stuffed with pulp.

Fortunately, Duncan had expected this situation, and when he saw that both sides were cold at the same time, he knew what was going on, and immediately broke the silence with a light cough: "Ahem, Shirley, how is your injury?" ”

"Hurt ...... Oh! The injury is completely healed! Shirley was stunned for a moment before she reacted, and quickly stood up straight and answered Duncan's question as if she was making a report, "And I ate a lot just now, and I'm not hungry at all now!" ”

"I didn't ask you this...... But if you can enjoy today's meal," Duncan smiled and nodded, "I will make some nutritious things to rejuvenate you in the next two days." Nina, do you have any plans for today? ”

"I'm going to take Shirley to the store next door," Nina said at once, "and buy her two new clothes, and new shoesβ€”her clothes are old." ”

Speaking of this, she turned her head to look at Shirley, and emphasized before the other party could speak: "This is a welcome gift for you to move over, and it is rude not to accept it." ”

"I ......" Shirley opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say for a while, and finally she could only nod, "Okay, thank you in advance...... And Mr. Duncan. ”

Duncan nodded, a smile on his face, "Then don't go too far, come back before evening - Shirley, you have to protect Nina." ”

Shirley immediately straightened up, and Nina was startled by the loud voice: "Yes, Mr. Duncan!" ”

Then the two girls said goodbye to Duncan and Alice, and walked in the direction of the gate, and Nina muttered as they went, "What did you suddenly do so loudly just now, and it startled me...... Uncle? My uncle isn't terrible. ”

"I ...... I'm polite and I've been learning politeness lately......"

Duncan couldn't help but smile as the two girls drifted apart, and then he turned back to see Alice staring at him again.

"What are you staring at me again?"

"Mr. Duncan...... You're very different here than you are on a boat," Alice said with a serious look at Duncan, and then looked up and down before speaking, "It's much kinder than on a boat!" ”

"Okay, don't feel that there is nothing to be done," Duncan smiled helplessly, of course he knew why Alice felt this way - even he knew that he had been tense on the ship, even if he had relaxed a little in the recent past, it was not at all as easy as in the city-state, but he didn't bother with this matter, but quickly changed the topic to another place, "Let's talk about you first-you don't have legal status, so it's best not to go uptown to attract attention, During this time, I first helped in the antique shop, on the one hand, to adapt to the environment, on the other hand, I can also help me do something, usually when I go out, you stay at the counter, customers come to ...... Wait, a question popped into my mind! ”

Both Android and Apple are available. 】

Duncan stopped suddenly, stared at the puppet in front of him with a strange expression, and waited for several seconds before he hesitated to speak: "You...... Do you know money? ”

Alice's face was full of curiosity: "What is money?" ”

Duncan: "......"
