"How did they get here?"

Xiao Du's voice was trembling. He was walking at the back of the team, closest to the puppet.

"Did you hear any footsteps?" Han Qiu Ming looked away and looked at Du Chaojin. "To be able to move so many puppets, there must be more than one staff member mixed in."

"There was no sound. They just seemed to appear behind us suddenly. I can guarantee it." Xiao Du was afraid that Han Qiu Ming would not believe him.

"No sound?" Han Qiu Ming frowned, stared at the puppet for a while, and suddenly smiled: "I know the reason!"

He strode towards the puppet, as if he had really discovered the secret hidden in the puppet: "There are beddings piled everywhere on the floor of the third ward. As long as the staff walk on the beddings, no sound will be made."

"The person who designed this haunted house is very thoughtful and knows how to manipulate people's hearts. He deliberately hid a scary-looking mannequin under the quilt to divert our attention and make us ignore the real purpose of the quilt."

Han Qiuming stopped beside the female doll, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. "Using blankets to hide the footsteps is a good idea, but their performance is too bad. If you want to give tourists a sense of psychological oppression, you must keep a distance. It is best to let tourists feel their presence but not touch them."

Xiao Du didn't quite understand what Han Qiu Ming meant: "Why is keeping a distance the scariest thing? I think approaching slowly like this seems a little more terrifying."

"Too much is as bad as too little. If you push them too hard, they will rebel and do things like I did." Han Qiuming pulled off the puppet's head and pushed her over. He looked at the puppets left in the dark corridor and shouted, "Go away on your own. Don't let me catch you. It will be bad for everyone."

"Who are you talking to?" Xiao Du found that he could hardly keep up with Han Qiumin's thoughts.

"The staff of the third ward have done special effects makeup and are now blending in with the pile of puppets!" Han Qiumin pushed his glasses, his expression calm, as if everything was under control.

But after more than ten seconds, the puppet in the corridor still maintained its posture.

Several dark figures stood in the middle of the corridor, and even if they were motionless, they were still a little scary.

"Teacher Han, why don't we go first? It doesn't matter if their staff doesn't want to come out."

Xiao Du tried to persuade him, but Han Qiu Ming felt that he was a little embarrassed: "If I find out, then they won't be able to do anything about it. I'm just in a bad mood today. Didn't that guy named Chen make a big fuss in our haunted house? Today I'm going to let go and turn his haunted house upside down!"

Han Qiuming walked towards the group of puppets alone, plucked the heads off every puppet around him, and kicked the puppets to the ground: "Keep hiding, I want to see how long you can hide?"

Heads rolled around, and the scene became even more eerie.

"Come back, Teacher Han!" Xiao Du's heart beat faster and faster as he looked at the puppet's head rolling on the ground.

"What's the hurry?" Han Qiuming pulled out the heads of four or five puppets in one breath. "This actor is really patient. He would rather the props be damaged than show his head."

"The Boss and Brother Song have already gone far away, let's hurry up and leave too!" Xiao Du kept urging them. The heads on the ground were rolling around, and what made his scalp tingle was that the expressions on the puppets' faces seemed to gradually change, and they seemed to be laughing!

"Don't panic." After Han Qiu Ming pulled off the eighth puppet's head, he also felt that something was wrong. "The puppets have metal brackets and joints installed in their bodies. It's not easy for an adult to move four at the same time. Are the actors hiding at the back? That's right. Even if the staff are wearing makeup, they will be discovered if they are too close to us, so they must be hiding at the back."

Han Qiu Ming convinced himself and continued to move forward. The dismembered puppets behind him fell to the ground.

"Teacher Han!" Xiao Du looked at Han Qiuming who rushed into the group of puppets and felt a little worried. He gritted his teeth and ran over: "Let's go! It's not good to be seen by others if you break so many props."

"If he dares to destroy our place, he must be prepared to have his haunted house destroyed." Han Qiu Ming walked towards the last four puppets, which were lying a little further away. "I won't cry until I see the coffin. You must let me catch you out with my own hands."

He pressed his hand on the head of the fourth-to-last doll and with a slight force, he removed the head.

"Why is it still a dummy?" Xiao Du's tone was a little nervous: "Teacher Han, do you think the puppet is moving on its own? When I came over just now, I saw that the expression on the puppet's face seemed to have changed."

"What do you know? Don't talk!" Han Qiumin pulled off the heads of two more puppets. His hands began to tremble and fell on the last puppet.

With force from both hands, a human head that seemed to be crying was pulled out.

"What the hell?"

Han Qiu Ming held the head in his hands and stared at Du Chaojin.

"Are they all dummies?!"

Xiao Du's vocal cords were trembling. He stood among a pile of puppet remains, not daring to move.

"It's okay, don't be afraid! The staff of this haunted house saw me coming and probably hid in the wards on both sides in advance." Han Qiumin threw the puppet head on the ground and hurried into the wards on both sides to check.

"Come out! I see you!"

After searching several rooms and finding nothing, Han Qiumin walked out with a grim face.

"Teacher Han, is this haunted house really haunted? Boss Chen is a lunatic. He can do anything. He once locked me in an iron cabinet." Xiao Du's scalp tingled and he began to cry about the horrible experience.

"Okay, it's not something glorious." Han Qiu Ming waved his hand to interrupt Xiao Du. He was calculating the distance from the exit of the third ward to the corner of the corridor. "After the actors moved the puppets, they didn't have time to run out of the building. I know, they should have left through the staff passage. There may be a tunnel or something under these beddings."

No matter what he said, Xiao Du would no longer believe it. He now just wanted to get away from Teacher Han. He always felt that something bad would happen if he stayed with this guy.

"If you want to find the tunnel, you can find it yourself. I'm leaving first." Xiao Du ran away.

"You are so timid, no wonder you were scared to tears by a tourist." Han Qiumin lost confidence in speaking. He walked towards the third ward, but just as he raised his foot, he found that his trouser leg was hooked by the fingers of a headless puppet.

Without thinking too much, he kicked the puppet's arm away and said, "It looks so real, who are you trying to scare?"

As he turned the corner, Han Qiu Ming faintly heard the sound of wind behind him, mixed with "gurgling" and "gurgling" sounds.

"Playing tricks."

Instead of going back to the corner to check, he sped up and caught up with the tourists in front.
