Chapter 870: New Captain
Lily didn't know how to answer this question. Now that she has become a human being, she can go home, but she dare not ask herself to make sure.
Lily felt that if she said a specific time in person, her time in this plane would start counting down
"Don't worry about it. Nothing is static. Charles' meaning is very clear. He wants you to return to your world. It's useless for you to wait any longer."
Feeling that she had said enough, Linda stood up and walked towards the door.
Seeing Lily who seemed very tangled, Grace began to say: "Don't worry, think slowly, no one is urging you to make a choice."
As a good friend, Lily had already told her everything about herself.
"I know what Mr. Charles means. He wants me to go back, but has he forgotten our agreement? It was agreed that when I become a human, I will..."
"In the end he just left." Lily's voice carried a hint of complaint, she felt abandoned.
With the help of her good friend Grace, Lily's mood gradually improved, and when they came to their senses, it was already late at night.
The two went to bed after a nice bath in the bathtub. Lily, who was holding the black cat, looked at Grace, who was lying on her right side and reading a book. "Do you think Mr. Charles really likes me?"
"Probably, the closest person to him, besides his daughter, is you." With a slight shake of Grace's scarred right hand, the books suspended in the air began to turn pages.
"I think so too. Back then we were still kissing each other." Lily closed her eyes slowly after she finished speaking.
Grace looked at her lovely face, raised her hand slightly, and the crystal lamp above her head gradually dimmed. "Night, Lily."
"Good night, Grace."
After a while, there was the sound of even breathing in the bedroom, and when the owner fell asleep, the black cat in Lily's arms got out from the fragrant quilt, and quickly jumped towards the window next to it.
After Lily muttered a few words in her sleep, she put her arms around Grace's arm beside her.
When it was midnight, the extremely quiet environment was instantly broken, the bedroom door was pushed open suddenly, and Grace woke up from her sleep in an instant. As she recited the spell, a fireball the size of a washbasin formed in the air and threw it towards the door. go.
"Hey! What are you doing! It's me!" The light was turned on, and Dipper, whose body was atomized, appeared on the spot.
"Do you have something to do? It's so late, why don't we talk about it tomorrow." Grace gently pulled the quilt on the two of them.
"I'm not looking for you! I'm looking for Lily." Dipper rushed over in a hurry, and asked Lily who was woken up with dim eyes: "Lily, do you often meet the captain's daughter, where is she now, do you know? ?”
"Ah? Shiny? She lived in the crown of the world before. I don't know if she is still here. I used her portrait to contact her before, but she ignored me."
"The crown of the world, the crown of the world" Di Pu muttered the place name and rushed outside.
As soon as he left, the dazed Lily lay down on the pillow and fell asleep.
When Lily was having breakfast the next morning, Grace, with a surprised expression, talked about what happened last night. "Really? Dipper came to see me? How come I don't remember?"
"You must have thought you were in a dream. I was also taken aback at the time, and rushed in without even knocking on the door."
Lily bit her spoon thoughtfully, "You said...is it possible that what Dipper said is true? Mr. Charles really didn't go back?"
"I don't know about that, you were the only one present at the time." Grace picked up the dried banana soaked in milk in the bowl with a spoon and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Why don't you eat? What are you thinking?"
Lily put down the spoon in her mouth, and then gently supported her chin with her wrist.
"Why does Winky ignore me recently? Could it be that what Dipper said is true? Mr. Charles is still in Earthsea? But he clearly made a wish."
"I won't eat for now, I'll go to the pier to have a look." Lily ran to the door next to her, and as her body glowed faintly, her petite body began to float in the air and flew towards the pier.
When she came to the pier, she was surprised to find that some dock laborers were delivering some daily necessities to the ship, and Dipper next to him was lecturing in front of a group of people.
"Dipper, where are you going?" Lily fell from the sky.
"That's no need to ask! Of course, I went to the crown of the world to find the captain's daughter! If the captain is really on the surface, she must know!" At this moment, Di Pu was full of energy. He was completely different from the one who was anxious yesterday.
"This is the crew I'm looking for, how is it? Not bad, they are all good hands. The first mate, the second mate, the chief engineer, and the sailors are all here!"
After Lily looked at the refined crew in front of her and thought for a while, her expression gradually became firm, "Then I will go too, and I also want to ask Winky why she ignores me, and she must know a lot about Charles."
She knew that the possibility that Di Pu said was very low, but she wanted to try it, just in case it was true.
Lily also didn't realize that she was looking for new excuses for staying in this plane, and she was nostalgic for it.
Lily's joining surprised Di Pu, but of course he welcomed it. "Okay! Now the gunners are all in place. Bring more of your mice. If anything happens at sea, you can use them all."
"Captain, I'm afraid it's not good to bring a woman on board." The experienced first mate persuaded,
"Haha, she's not a woman, don't worry. With her, you will be safe along the way."
"Da da da" footsteps sounded from behind, everyone turned their heads at the same time, and saw the current acting governor leading a large group of people walking towards this side.
"What? You guys are not going, and you plan to stop me from going out to sea?" Di Pu raised his chin and shouted at the bandage.
Bandage looked at the people that Di Pu had brought over temporarily, "They can't do it. The origin is unknown. Hope Island.. There are people in the navy."
As soon as the words were finished, the sound of neat boots stepping on the floor was heard, and a dozen people stood up from the crowd and gave a military salute to Di Pu.
Judging from their appearance, they were obviously elites who had been replaced from the Hope Island naval battleship, and it was more than enough to cooperate with Di Pu to control the Narwhal.
Dipper was stunned for a few seconds, his face was filled with joy, and he punched heavily on the bandaged shoulder. "Bandages! I knew you'd help me!"
After the bandaged body swayed, he stood up again. "The captain said... to kill me with his own hands. Maybe you... look for it."
"Don't worry! Leave it to me, let's go!" Di Pu led the others towards the deck of the Narwhal.
"Woo~~~!" The piercing siren sounded throughout the Hope Island pier.
When the winch was turned hard by the sailors, the anchor in the water was slowly lifted up, and when the cables tied to the pier were untied by the bandages, the Narwhal left the shore again.
Looking at the gradually shrinking pier in the distance, Dipper took a slight breath. "The Narwhal! Set sail!"
