Chapter 427: Chapter 427: Is it an Illusion?
“The fire was getting bigger.
Leaning against the wall, Bai Youwei slowly moved forward.
Her knee throbbed with pain.
It was like walking on the tip of a knife.
Despite regaining sensation, she still could not walk properly. She walked out of the Candy House, only a dozen steps away, covered in cold sweat, her legs trembled.
The bunny followed behind, matching her pace.
Once she got to the door, she saw her wheelchair and breathed a sigh of relief. She told the bunny, “Go, bring my wheelchair over here.”
The bunny flicked its ears and hopped towards the wheelchair.
Although it was a bit small, the pavement was smooth. The wheelchair was pushed forward intermittently and sometimes spun around, before finally reaching Bai Youwei.
At this moment, the fire in the Candy House started spreading outside.
Bai Youwei sat in her wheelchair, clutching the bunny, and left Fantasy Street.
Behind her, the toy store, dessert shop, gift shop, ice cream parlor… all the shops on Fantasy Street were being devoured by the widespread fire.
Fantasy Street was next to the Dreaming Garden, an area filled with vibrant flowers and beautiful landscapes, made up of countless individual gardens.
Bai Youwei traveled through the garden, trying to find a high-vantage point to see where Shen Mo and the others were.
As she passed the cartoon statues in the garden, she felt something eerie. The statues’ eyes were painted black, like deep dark holes, seeming to stare at her…
Bai Youwei furrowed her eyebrows and sped up her pace.
A familiar unease started to surface.
She suddenly halted and turned around to look at the cartoon statues again.
They were motionless.
Could it have been her imagination?
Bai Youwei pondered for a moment but she was more concerned about Shen Mo. She put her doubts aside for now and continued forward.
She emerged from the garden onto the main park path.
The sounds of various theme park music entered her ears; the claw machine music, bumper car music, and hovercraft music… It was too noisy for her to determine where Shen Mo was, and she couldn’t see Mary and the cat.
The park was just too big.
Another wave of music approached.
Bai Youwei frowned and looked down the road. Coming from the other end was a parade float, the music was coming from there.
Snow White stood high on the float, holding a red apple, followed by the seven dwarfs and a variety of other cartoon characters. They formed a long line and were happily parading the grounds.
During the day, they were silent inanimate objects, but they all came to life after dark, singing along with the music:
Everywhere that Mary went,
She would bring along her little doll,
People met them everywhere,
Mary and her merry doll…
The parade passed right in front of her and then moved away.
The music also dissipated.
Suddenly, loud bangs echoed! The chaotic fighting noises became clearer with the retreat of the music, as though something had been knocked over, or perhaps something had been hit.
Bai Youwei’s heart leapt, and she swiftly rolled her wheelchair in the direction of the noise!
A shadow suddenly lunged at her!
“What are you doing here?!” Sweaty and frantic, Shen Fei demanded, “You shouldn’t be here! Get away!!!”
Without waiting for a response, he began to push her wheelchair and ran forward!
“Stop!” Bai Youwei coldly ordered.
“Don’t make trouble! My brother can’t deal with you right now!”
Shen Fei was running so fast that Bai Youwei had no chance to argue! He looked back from time to time, and when he saw that the cat was not following, he made a sharp turn with the wheelchair—
And rushed into the Old Vine Monster Tree House on the side of the road!
Bai Youwei was about to speak when Shen Fei covered her mouth!
“Stay quiet!” his voice was anxious and low, “They’re coming!”
