Horror Dolls
Several children, the oldest of whom was only six and a half years old and the youngest was less than two years old, turned into little detectives, full of fighting spirit and without any fear.
But it's evening now, and after dinner it's time to go to bed.
Lawyer Qin said: "If we want to know the truth, we have to start with the staff. They must know what they are doing when they shoot this variety show for children."
Xia Yao said: "Even if they know, they won't tell us."
Qin Lu: "So, we have to eavesdrop on their conversation. We are children, and adults always don't like to avoid children when talking. They won't notice us eavesdropping."
As he spoke, he looked at the youngest, Gu Lin, "Especially him. For a baby this young, adults will definitely not deliberately avoid talking to him, and he may not understand even if they talk to him."
Gu Lin is not even two years old yet, but he is already an anti-PUA expert. Hearing this, he immediately spoke up for himself: "The kid is not a fool, the kid can understand!"
When Qin Lu thought about how Gu Lin got first place on the first day, the words of rebuttal came to his lips, but he swallowed them back.
Shen Su asked every child to go back to their room to sleep and not run around at night. There were activities scheduled for the next day, so they had to get up at seven in the morning.
Gu Lin followed Qin Lumu Chenke back to the room on the second floor.
Han Muyang was still lying in the quilt of his bed. His posture had not changed and his whole body was still wrapped in the quilt, but he was no longer trembling and looked like he had fallen asleep.
Qin Lu walked over and poked him, but there was no response. When he was about to poke him again, a snoring sound came from under the quilt.
I actually fell asleep.
Gu Lin took off his little cotton boots and climbed onto his bed.
Seeing that Qi Yuan's bed was empty, he was not in a hurry to look for Qi Yuan. Brother A Yuan said he would come to find him, so he would definitely come.
It was not yet eight o'clock. Gu Lin took off his cotton-padded jacket and the little tiger-head hat on his head. He lay on the bed and rolled around a few times. He was having a lot of fun.
Gu Lin wasn't sleepy for the moment, but there was nothing fun here and nothing to do.
He suddenly thought of his lamb doll, which could play TV.
Gu Lin sat up from the bed, crossed his legs, and asked 9527 to take out the little black sheep doll from the system backpack.
The next moment, the little black sheep doll appeared in Gu Lin's arms. He held up the doll and said, "Mee, mee."
Except for Han Muyang who was already fast asleep, Qin Lu, Mu Chenke and the little fat boy were all lying on their beds bored. They couldn't fall asleep for a while, but they didn't know what to do.
At this time, they all heard Gu Lin's "bleating" sound, but they didn't pay attention to it. They thought it was the little brother pretending to be a lamb to amuse himself.
However, soon, they widened their eyes, climbed out of bed one by one, and looked at the wall facing Gu Lin's bed in disbelief.
There was nothing on the snow-white wall originally, but now a projection appeared, with various cartoons on it.
Mu Chenke couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "Wow, what is this?"
The little fat boy also said: "Wow, you actually have a projector and can play cartoons, so cool! Wow, there are Transformers!!"
Even Qin Lu was dumbfounded when he saw that what Gu Lin used to project was just an ugly little black sheep. He had seen projectors before, but had never seen such a simple projector.
A doll can also be used to play videos
The picture that others saw was on the wall, but Gu Lin's control panel was right in front of him. He swiped his little hands and finally clicked on "Peppa Pig".
These children have been raised in orphanages since birth. They rarely have the opportunity to watch TV and have few entertainment activities. So they are enjoying watching "Peppa Pig" with great gusto.
It's good enough to have something to watch. They are not picky about what to watch.
The little fat boy was very supportive and gave Gu Lin two thumbs up, having forgotten that he was scared to death that Gu Lin was talking to the air.
Mu Chenke said: "Little brother, don't you know what mommy and daddy are? Look, this daddy pig is Peppa's dad, and mommy pig is Peppa's mom. Peppa and George are their babies."
Gu Lin pointed at George with his little hand and said, "This is Zi Zi."
Then he pointed at Peppa Pig: "This is my brother."
Then point to Daddy Pig and Mommy Pig: "This is Daddy, this is Mommy."
Mu Chenke: "No, Paige is a girl, Paige is the older sister."
Gu Lin tilted his head: "But Zizi only has a brother, not a sister."
Mu Chenke: “…”
You are not a pig!
When their parents were mentioned, these children who grew up in an orphanage and had never seen their parents felt sad.
The little fat boy said sadly: "I haven't seen my parents either."
Qin Lu was the most silent, staring at the projection wall, and said: "We haven't seen it before, okay, let's just watch TV."
The projector can only play for a maximum of thirty minutes a day, but after less than ten minutes, Gu Lin fell asleep on his bed, his head facing the end of the bed, and a lamb doll in his arms.
"Peppa Pig" was still playing, and Qin Lu and the other two were watching it intently. When they turned around, they saw that Gu Lin had fallen asleep.
Mu Chenke: "My little brother has fallen asleep, how do I turn this off later?"
Qin Lu got up from the bed, walked to Gu Lin's bed, and prepared to study this little black sheep projector.
However, at this moment, footsteps were heard outside the room, approaching this side.
The three of them were stunned, and Qin Lu immediately wanted to wake up his little brother and ask him to turn off the projector.
But before he touched Gu Lin, the projector turned off automatically.
Qin Lu was stunned, then he looked down at Gu Lin and found that he was sleeping very soundly, without moving at all. It was impossible that he turned it off. If it wasn't Gu Lin who turned it off, who could have turned it off?
Qin Lu didn't dare to think too much about it. He immediately ran back to his bed, pulled the quilt over his head, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
Mu Chenke and the fat boy also covered their heads with quilts and pretended to sleep.
The footsteps stopped at the door and stayed there for nearly a minute.
Gu Lin and Han Muyang were asleep and not affected, but the three children who were pretending to be asleep were all terrified.
Although separated by a door panel, they felt that there were a pair of eyes outside the door, which seemed to be able to penetrate the door panel and fall on each of them.
Finally, the footsteps sounded again, gradually moving away from the door.
Qin Lu and the other two all breathed a sigh of relief.
The next second, the lights in the room suddenly went out automatically, leaving only darkness.
The little fat boy screamed, then immediately covered his mouth, not daring to make any sound.
Darkness would magnify one's inner fear. The three of them covered their heads with quilts, closed their eyes, and forced themselves to fall asleep.
In the darkness, Qi Yuan looked at the sleeping Gu Lin, then pulled the quilt over him.

Nothing happened that night, but early the next morning, all the children were woken up from their sleep by the staff.
Gu Lin woke up with a small yawn, rubbing his eyes with his little fleshy hands, and his snow-white and delicate face was flushed.
After waking up a little, Gu Lin remembered that his brother Yuan said he would come to see him last night but he didn't show up.
He poked his head out and looked outside. His furry little head was a mess with his hair standing up.
He looked at the bed next to him; it was empty and his brother Yuan was nowhere to be seen.
Well, he must have gone to bed too early last night, and Brother Yuan didn’t come because he saw that he fell asleep.
Gu Lin didn't think much about it. He stretched himself, yawned, and then put on his cotton jacket.
The other children also woke up.
Han Muyang also woke up, but he seemed to have lost his soul. His eyes were dull and lifeless, like a puppet.
Qin Lu called him, but he ignored him, as if he didn't hear him.
While the other older children had put on their clothes and shoes, Gu Lin was still clumsily putting on his little cotton-padded jacket, but he was already halfway done.
Mu Chenke said: "Do you want me to help you put it on?"
Gu Lin said: "Zizi can!"
He put on his little cotton-padded jacket, then got out of bed, sat on the floor, and put on his little cotton-padded boots.
Qin Lu saw him putting the cotton shoe on his right foot and put it on his left foot. His eyelids twitched and he hesitated for a moment. He was about to remind the kid that he had put the shoes on the wrong way around, but while he was hesitating, Mu Chenke got there first.
Mu Chenke laughed: "You put your shoes on the wrong way round, hahaha, do you know how to put on shoes?"
Gu Lin sat on the ground. He was wearing too many thick clothes and could hardly see his legs when he lowered his head. He put on his shoes with some difficulty.
After putting on his shoes, he stood up and kicked his feet. Finally, with Mu Chenke's guidance, he put on his shoes correctly.
Gu Lin clapped his hands and thanked him politely: "Thank you, little brother."
Mu Chenke liked to pull people's hair. He pulled Gu Lin's curled hair and said with a smile: "You are not wearing your tiger hat."
Gu Lin put on his hat again and was fully equipped.
Qin Lu looked at Gu Lin, hesitated for a moment, and asked him: "How did you turn off your Lamb projector? Did it turn off automatically?"
He didn't touch the projector yesterday, and Gu Lin fell asleep, but it turned off automatically. Who turned it off?
Gu Lin blinked his eyes and said, "Pinch the lamb's horns to turn it off."
Qin Lu's face suddenly changed. Could it be a ghost who turned off the projector yesterday?
Gu Lin added: "It will turn itself off when the time comes. You can only watch it for 30 minutes a day."
After hearing what Gu Lin said, Qin Lu became confused again. Did you watch it for 30 minutes yesterday?
He wasn't too sure, after all, time passed quickly when watching TV.

After washing up, the cubs came to the first floor.
Xia Yao had already come down, and as soon as she saw Gu Lin, she ran over with a smile.
Xia Yao: "Little brother, let's go eat together!"
Gu Lin nodded his head: "Yes, let's have dinner together with my sister."
Qin Lu and Mu Chenke looked at each other and followed behind in silence.
In Xia Yao's eyes, the two of them were obviously not as popular as her younger brother.
The dining table is a particularly long one, with five tables in total, and each table can seat more than twenty people.
At dinner last night, all five tables were full of people, and one of the tables was occupied by people from the program crew.
But now there is an empty table.
Qin Lu carefully counted the number of people and whispered: "There are still 60 children. I remember that only 23 were eliminated yesterday."
Gu Lin didn't know how to count. When he heard this, he opened his little hands and counted with his fingers, but he couldn't count clearly.
Xia Yao said: "The child who was injured yesterday is also missing."
Mu Chenke was stunned and said: "They...were they all sent back to the welfare home by bus?"
Neither Xia Yao nor Qin Lu answered.
At this moment, a series of swaying shadows appeared on the table in front of them, like the shadows of children, swaying back and forth.
They raised their heads stiffly, looked at the ceiling, and then their faces suddenly changed.
The ceiling was densely covered with the bodies of hanged children. Their faces were gray, their eye sockets were bulging, and their suspended bodies were swaying.
The faces of these children are exactly the same as those children who were eliminated yesterday and those who were injured.
Before they could even scream, they looked again and saw that there was nothing on the ceiling except the chandelier.
The scene just now seemed like an illusion.
No matter what the secret behind this kids variety show is, if they can’t stay and make it into the top ten, they’ll probably die.
