「阿呦呦！搜索員太太實在太可憐了。」庫庫的媽媽舀了一匙豆子湯說。
「對呀！」爸爸回應道。
「太可怕了！而且竟然還被衛生官帶走，不知道什麼時候才能回來呦～」
「衛生官…為什麼要帶走她們？」餐桌上庫庫問。
「哼！為了國王的大柱子」爸爸嗤之以鼻。
「柱子怎麼了？」
「柱子髒了，需要又黑又硬的流蘇去刷乾淨！還好你老爸沒妄想去加入什麼搜索隊！不然他就完啦！」媽媽忿忿說道
「是呀，好險」剛才很有氣勢的爸爸變得很小聲
「什麼，你還真的有想過加入搜索隊呀？」
「沒有呀，沒有呀」
庫庫忍不住想像長大以後，萬一自己丈夫是搜索隊員，自己被黑流蘇怪物詛咒長出長長腋毛的樣子…

“Oh…those wives, they are so pathetic…”said KuKu's mom.
“Exactly…”responded her dad.
“And the entire thing is just terrifying! They were even caught away by the cruel government minister. God knows when would they be sent back?”
“The government took them away?” asked KuKu.
“Um huh! All about the pillars.” dad sniffed.
“What?”
“They need something really tough to clean the dirty palace pillars. Unfortunately, the tassels do strong enough. Thank god your father isn't that stupid getting involved with it, or he would be dead meat.”
“Yeah…That was close.”
“Oh. No! You did think about that.”
“Nope. Of course not! Come on.”
At the moment, KuKu started wondering what kind of cursed tassel would she get under arms if she were one of the poor ladies.
