Chapter 14 Chapter 14: I Don't Know How to Read a Newspaper, I Know Where to Find the Small Pages

Early in the morning, Quan Wu was awakened by a strange buzzing sound. In his dream, he seemed to feel that there was a bee buzzing in front of him, and it seemed that the vacuum cabinet was starting to work.Quan Wu opened his eyes and saw a strange little machine on the floor not far from the bed. It was crawling from one side of the wall to the other in the room, humming constantly.This machine looks like a turtle: the upper part is arched and the lower part is flat.Quan Bu jumped out of the bed, bent over and followed the little machine, trying to take a closer look at it.It was painted with dark green enamel, with densely packed holes like those on a colander, surrounded by a shiny nickel-plated band with several larger holes like eyes.In beautiful silver letters on the side: киъернегика.

"What does the word mean? 'Kibenejika'?" asked Knuckles to himself. "Probably the name of the machine?" At this time, the machine crawled to Xiaohualian's bed, where a pile of candy wrappers was thrown around.It just crawled over and over the papers—all the wrappers disappeared immediately, as if they had never been there.The machine then burrows under the bed.Its barking came from under the bed.After barking for a while, Xiao Hualian was woken up, and put her legs on the floor, but when she saw the machine crawling out from under the bed, she jumped back on the bed in fright.

"What is this?" he asked tremblingly. "Kibenejika," replied Omniscience. "What 'ki-kibenejika'?" "It's not the 'Kikibenejika,' it's the 'Kikibenejika'—a sweeping machine." "Why did it crawl under my bed?" "You are so weird! Don't you have to clean under the bed too!?" At this time, the machine crawled to the door and screamed, as if it had received a signal.The door opened, and the machine crawled into the next room.It crawled all over the floor there, even under the table, and in the end, there was no rubbish left anywhere...

Little Thumbtack woke up at this moment, and when she heard the noise, she poked her head out of her room to see: "What's moving in your place?" "Kibenejika," Quan Zhi said to her, pointing at the machine. "It sweeps the floor by itself, understand?" "How strange!" exclaimed the little thumbtack. "What's so strange!" Xiao Hualian waved her hands. "It wouldn't be strange if it stained the floor! If it's sweeping, it wouldn't be so strange." Having finished sweeping, the machine crept into the middle of the room, whirled around as if to look around, then crept around the corner and disappeared behind a small door close to the floor.

After breakfast (before breakfast, of course, they dressed, washed, and brushed their teeth), our travelers decided to walk around the city, since they hadn't seen anything carefully.Going down the stairs and out of the hotel, they saw many pedestrians on the street.Almost everyone has a newspaper in their hands.Some people sat on benches and read newspapers, while others simply stood in the middle of the sidewalk.There are also some people who read while walking, that is, burying their heads in the newspaper and walking step by step. As a result, many people say that you bump into me and I bump into you.However, no one cared about the people who were hit, because everyone was absorbed in reading the newspaper.Those without newspapers rushed to the newsstand on the corner of the street.

"There must be some important news in the newspaper," said the little thumbtack. The little pushpin saw a little girl leaning against a cabinet in the street, reading the newspaper with relish, and asked her, "Please tell me, what happened? Why are everyone rushing to read the newspaper?" "The little page is missing," replied the little girl. "What little pages?" "It's a little boy." "Then how did he lose it?" "I don't know that either. I'll tell you when I've finished reading the paper." Little Thumbtack was about to run to the newsstand when he saw a little boy walking quickly down the street with a large roll of newspapers in his hand, distributing the papers to everyone who wanted to read them.He walked up to the little thumbtack and handed her a copy too.

Little Thumbtack, ignorant of anything, and Little Face sat down on the bench, and she began to read the newspaper articles about the little pages and little letters, and went on to read all that we have said in the last chapter.Who knows that Xiao Shuye loves to read while walking, and immediately understands that this little Shuye is none other than the little boy he met on the street yesterday and was turned into a donkey by him.Conscience began to torment him again, but he didn't know what he was thinking to Little Pushpin at all. Little Pushpin is a person who is easily moved. After reading this story, tears came to her eyes.

"I don't know, you and I are on good terms too, like little pages and little letters, and we read fairy tales to each other, remember?" she said. "What would happen if I lost you?" "Look at you fool, why are you crying!" Xiao Hualian said. "I don't know that I didn't lose it at all! He's sitting here!" But Quan Bu picked up the newspaper and began to read other news.One passage caught his attention. "Listen, what is written here," he said, reading a message: "Yesterday evening, an ownerless donkey was found on Biscuit Street. The animal was wandering on the sidewalk and suddenly appeared in front of passers-by. It startled people. Sometimes it ran to the road where cars came and went regardless of its own life. Everyone tried everything to find the owner of the donkey, but there was no result. The police officers had left the donkey alone. caught by his donkey and sent to the zoo."

"Well, I caught a donkey and sent it to the zoo," said little pushpin. "What's so great about that?" "This must be..." Quan Mo said. He wanted to say that this must be the little man who was turned into a donkey by him yesterday, but he almost slipped his mouth when he saw it, so he quickly shut up. "What must this be?" asked Little Thumbtack. "Hey, this must be...it must be..." Quan Zhi said creakingly. "There must be a zoo in Sun City, we can go and see the wild animals." "Yes!" Xiao Hualian said happily. "I've long wanted to go to the zoo and see the wild animals."

It should be said that the Little People's Country is exactly the same as ours here, with all kinds of animals: lions, tigers, wolves, bears, crocodiles, elephants...All these animals, however, were not so large as ours, but rather small and dwarfed.The wolf there is about as big as our little mouse, the bear is like a big mouse, and the biggest animal, the elephant, is only as big as a kitten.However, in the eyes of little people, these little animals are scary enough.Everyone knows that they are only as long as one of our fingers.Although the little man is small, he is quite brave.They bravely captured wild animals and put them in the zoo for everyone to visit and enjoy.

When Xiaohualian heard that he was going to the zoo, he jumped up from the bench, wanting to go there as soon as possible.He said, "What should we do? We don't know where the zoo is...?" "It's easy to handle, and we can find out right away." Don't know the answer. He walked up to a little boy who was reading a newspaper on the sidewalk, and asked him, "Where is the zoo, please? We'd love to see the donkey, no... well... not the donkey, but the donkey." Go and see the beast." "Go to the zoo, take the No. 9 bus." The little boy replied. "There's a station next to the hotel here." No idea, thank you, and they walked to the bus station.It didn't take long—about a minute and a half to two minutes later, the car drove up.The car door opened automatically as if to say welcome.The buddies got into the car and the car drove on.It walks very steadily and feels no vibration at all.This is due to the special tire and spring equipment mounted on the car. The equipment in the car is also unusual.Each window has a small table with two loveseats on either side of the table.There are newspapers and magazines on the table, as well as chess, checkers, cards, dominoes and other toys.There are beautiful pictures on the walls between the windows, various colorful flags are hung on the ceiling, and the whole car is decorated like a festival.There is a TV set in front of the car, and everyone can watch movies, football games or other TV programs on the screen.In addition, there is a shooting target at the back of the car.One more thing to add here: there is no flight attendant in the car, instead he is replaced by a loudspeaker hanging on the wall, which announces the name of the station loudly. When Quanzhi and his companions got on the bus, they saw several passengers buried in the newspapers at the table, two little girls were playing cards, two little girls and two little boys were playing chess, and three little girls were sitting on the bus. Watch TV in front.Also, two little boys were shooting targets with air guns, but that didn't bother anyone.There were also several young boys discussing enthusiastically about the disappearance of the little pages in the newspapers.A passenger told about an acquaintance of his, Little Bell, who lost his way on the street at night and couldn't find his way home. This story fascinated everyone, but he had no way of knowing how the story of Little Bell ended, because the bus stopped at the gate of the zoo very quickly, and he got off before he could finish listening to the story.
