I n 2018 , there was a rich little girl called Belle , who had a very strange disease . Because of this , she can ’ t leave her bedroom . Therefore , her father gave her a laptop to communicate to the world . She had a lot of friends on the Internet . However , she wanted to have some real friends sitting next to her chatting and playing with her . Furthermore , she always saw a lot of beautiful pictures on traveling blogs . She wanted to go to admire them with her own eyes . One day , Belle watched a cartoon movie “ Journey to the West ” with her family . Her mother made four stuffed toys- Sun Wukong , Zhu Bajie , Sha Wujing and Xuanzang since the girl loved those four characters . That night , Belle discovered a website called “ Dream Come True ” ( www . dreamcometrue . hk ) It said , “ If you want to make your dream come true , please type your wish in the text box ." She typed that she wanted to have real friends , and hit the “ Wish ” button . After that , the browser displayed “ This website can ’ t be reached ". She hit the “ refresh ” button a lot of times , but it still displayed the same message . She was very disappointed . Its long past her bedtime , so she slept . “ Help !!” The next day , a noise woke Belle up . She opened her eyes sleepily . However , it was neither her father ’ s voice , nor her mother ’ s voice . She gasped in amazement . It was the four toys ’ noise that woke her up ! She exclaimed , “ You are alive !! My dream has come true !!” “ I ’ ll protect you from this giant , master !” Sun Wukong said . After saying that , Sun Wukong drew a circle around his master , Xuanzang . Zhu Bajie , also known as Pigsy , hid behind them and yelled , “ Good luck facing the giant , big brother ! I ’ m not participating in the fight !” Sha Wujing , also known as Sandy said , " Master ? We ’ d better stay in the circle that big brother drew because it would be dangerous !” Xuanzang warned , “ Sun Wukong , be careful !” Belle was confused . She said , “ I ’ m Belle . What brings you here ? Can we be friends ?” They were confused . Xuanzang asked , “ We can , but where are the scriptures ?” Belle answered , “ I finally have real friends ! You ’ re in 2018 . My parents should be happy to meet you .” After a moment , Belle ’ s father entered the bedroom and said , “ Belle , I have some news for you . Next week , you will need to go to the United States to have your treatment . However , the doctor says you can ’ t take anything with you . We won ’ t come back until you are fully cured .” Belle was about to introduce her four new friends to her father , but he left the room quickly . She was unwilling to leave her new friends . They were also disappointed to see her going away . The next week , Belle was ready to go . Xuanzang said , “ If we all miss Belle , why don ’ t we go and find her ? Although finding her will be like finding a needle in a haystack , but if we have hope , we can do anything .” Pigsy answered , “ Good idea ! Belle is such a beauty …” “ The technology in , here is well developed . Moreover , we are tiny in this world . Therefore , we can do something without anyone noticing ,” Sun Wukong analyzed . Sandy said , “ Let ’ s make our way to the U . S . and find Belle !” After they had psychological preparation , they started their journey to the U . S . They decided they needed to get to the airport as fast as they can . They found someone who climbed into a taxi , telling the driver to drop him at the airport , so they climbed into the taxi quietly .

S . when the flight attendant wasn ’ t looking at their direction . When they are on the plane , Pigsy complained quietly , “ That man ’ s foot and shoe sure are smelly !” When the plane is ready to departure , the flight attendant said , “ The plane will departure in 5 minutes , and will arrive U . S . in 12 hours . …” After 12 hours , they had a serious airsick . When they were feeling good , they sped to find a hospital in order to find Belle . Finally , they found the Queen Elizabeth Hospital . They went inside and saw a lot of sickroom . They peeked into each sickroom , one by one . At last , they found Belle ’ s sickroom and entered .
