Chapter 24 Trouble has struck, and the Cool King makes his appearance.
"What's your name? Do you like mushrooms? Your legs are even shorter than mine!"
Toad, who was playing with Yuanbao, didn't notice at all that his travel bag had moved.
Then, after a few quick movements, a glass bottle emerged from the travel bag.
This glass bottle contains a turtle with a green shell covered in spikes, and shackles tightly binding its neck and arms, and a head of fiery red hair!
If Mario were here, he would definitely recognize him.
This turtle is none other than Mini Bowser!
"Princess Brigitte, wait for me, I will definitely find you!"
Cooler Master glanced at Toad, who was having a great time, and then smashed the glass bottle hard.
Soon, the glass bottle rolled out of the travel bag.
Kuba chuckled and kept fiddling with his feet, controlling the glass bottle to roll forward.
Perhaps he was too happy, because Cooler Master accidentally lost control of his speed.
With a bang, it hit the chair leg.
What was that sound?
Toad turned his head curiously to take a look.
Everything around me is normal.
Toad scratched his head, then turned back to petting the cat.
"Little one, you are so cute."
Meow~
The glass bottle had somehow been turned upright. Kuba, who was hiding behind the chair leg, breathed a sigh of relief and wiped away non-existent cold sweat from his face.
Kuba looked up and scanned the room, which seemed enormous to him at the moment.
How can I escape from here?
Coolba's eyes darted around, and suddenly an idea came to him. He smiled slyly, knocked over the glass bottle, and hobbled away.
Toad, engrossed in petting the cat, was completely unaware.
until...
I don't know how much time passed.
Toad rubbed his empty stomach, looked towards the door and said helplessly, "What's wrong with Mario? Why isn't he back yet? I'm so hungry, I'd better eat some of the mushrooms I brought."
Toad went to the travel bag, opened it, and pulled out a mushroom. Just as he was about to take a bite, he froze.
"etc!"
Toad glanced mechanically at his travel bag, then his expression changed, and he began frantically rummaging through it.
"It's gone! It's gone!"
Finally, he even turned the travel bag upside down and emptied everything out.
"It's gone!!!"
Toad frantically searched for it.
"Ah! Found it!"
Toad's face lit up with joy as he found... a bottle of cumin powder under a book.
"Ha, how can you eat mushrooms without cumin?"
Toad sprinkled cumin on the mushrooms, licked his lips, and popped them into his mouth.
"Smack smack smack..."
"One isn't enough, have another one!"
Toad rummaged through his rummaged luggage and quickly pulled out a potato.
"ha!"
Toad sprinkled cumin on the potato and swallowed it in one bite.
"Delicious, delicious."
Kuba, hiding in a dark corner, watched this scene with a speechless expression.
Didn't this guy notice that I was missing?
Cooler scratched his head, anxiously trying to come up with a solution.
How can I make this silly mushroom realize that I've run away?
Or... should I shout it out?
Seeing that Toad was almost full, Bowser gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and shouted in a high-pitched voice, "Hey! The great and handsome King Bowser has come out! Run!!"
Toad wiped his mouth and looked in the direction of Bowser.
"Cooldown King? Right, Cooldown King! Where's Cooldown the Great Demon King?"
Toad's reflexes, which were so slow even Bowser found them annoying, finally caught up.
Toad rummaged around again, but this time he didn't get what he wanted.
"That scream just now... could it be... that the Great Demon King Cool has run away? Oh no!"
Toad jumped three feet high in a panic.
"What to do? What to do? What to do? That's it! Find Mario! Mario defeated Bowser before, and if he can beat someone once, he can beat him again!"
Toad rushed to the door, jumped with all his might, and got stuck on the doorknob.
I turned the knob, and the door opened.
Toad took off running.
"Mario! Mario! Something terrible has happened! Bowser has escaped!"
After Toad ran out, Bowser followed, rolling the glass bottle with both hands and feet.
Looking at the even larger room, Coolba chuckled.
Keep searching for an exit!
Having just finished tidying up the room, Lu Ziqiao, whose back was aching from exhaustion, heard someone shouting "Mario" in the living room. He couldn't help but walk out of the room, clutching his aching back in confusion.
When Lu Ziqiao saw Toad running around the living room, he was first stunned, then let out a howl and almost jumped onto the roof.
"What a huge mushroom!!!"
Toad was also startled by the shout and buried his head under the sofa, leaving only his trembling bottom sticking out.
As Lu Ziqiao ran towards the room, he tripped over his own feet and fell flat on his face, bumping into an old wooden root that was almost covered in patina.
He discovered this by chance, originally planning to wait until he met the "right" person and then trick or sell this old wooden man to him. Little did he know that it would almost cost him his life.
"Holy crap, this hurts like hell..."
Lu Ziqiao cursed, then bent over in pain and lay on his side on the ground, writhing.
Fortunately, the top of the old tree root was flat; otherwise, he might have died here today.
Hiding under the sofa, Toad mustered up his courage, raised his head, and looked around.
After finding no one, he immediately ran towards the gate, then quickly jumped up, grabbed the doorknob, and twisted it hard.
He opened the door and ran away as fast as he could.
Cooler followed closely behind, but he couldn't control the direction well, so he crashed and banged his way out.
Lu Ziqiao took a while to recover before clutching his stomach and getting up, glancing down in horror.
"Phew~ thank goodness, I almost never experienced the joy of being a stranger again."
"What the hell was that thing I just saw? It could talk, it could run, and it was a whole pot of mushrooms that couldn't fit in a stew?"
Lu Ziqiao peeked into the living room with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.
It's completely empty.
Looking at the quiet living room, Lü Ziqiao wondered to himself, "Could this be a hallucination?"
He thought for a moment and then went into the room.
When he came out again.
He had a broken pot on his head, windproof glasses on his face, a clothes rack in his left hand, a back scratcher in his right, his chest was bulging with something, and he was wearing a pair of bright purple rain boots.
Dressed like that, anyone who didn't know better would think he escaped from "The Narnia Asylum".
"Little, little mushroom? Brother Mushroom? Uh, cool... isn't it?"
Lu Ziqiao called out cautiously, but after circling around, he still couldn't see Toad, so he relaxed.
"Phew~ Looks like I was seeing things, that scared me to death."
"Hello!"
A sudden shout rang out.
"Ah!!! Brother Mushroom, Grandpa Mushroom, please, please don't eat me! I eat gutter oil every day, it doesn't taste good~"
Lu Ziqiao knelt down with his eyes closed, begging for mercy.
