Horror Kindergarten (Revised)
Xia Yi opened the compartment curtain in a daze: "Bai Sisi, do you still remember the game prompt? It said that there were six people who could complete the game. I've been looking for this sixth person, but I haven't found him..."
"We've discussed this before. Some people are better at clearing levels alone, but it's normal to come in small groups." Bai Sisi glanced at the curtain of the first compartment and said quietly, "Of course, there are rare times when you can't tell who your teammates are. You might be killed as soon as you enter the game."
Xia Yi paused, and as he followed Teacher Lin back to the dormitory, he made up his mind and said, "They're not dead. Can I see your game bracelets?"
Bai Sisi's bracelet is in the shape of a ring and is coded 002, Wang En's is 001, and Ye Baixin's is 004.
"Ningxi is 003. I saw their wristbands when I confirmed their identities." Wang En glanced at Teacher Lin's back and said in a low voice.
Xia Yi raised his hand and knocked his head, saying: "The sixth player is a black cat." There was another sentence that Xia Yi did not say. The black cat entered the game in the body of an animal, so he must know the most clues.
Bai Sisi: "Impossible, gamers have never turned into animals."
"This is outrageous. You must have seen it wrong. How can you confirm it? Could he have told you?" Ye Baixin retorted. Seeing Xia Yi nodded without saying anything, Ye Baixin pondered his last sentence.
So, the cat talked??!
Hold! !
"No way! I went out before... and I didn't see anyone keeping cats in the kindergarten!"
Wang En concluded: "That's possible. There's nothing weird in the game."
"Okay, stop whispering here. You are the last one to come back, and the children have all gone in to sleep. Be quiet, and the teacher will sleep in the bed next to you at night. If you want to go to the bathroom, just go to the teacher's bed and wake her up, and she will take you there. Children must sleep well. In our Chunhuahua Kindergarten, it is strictly forbidden to go out at night. If you go out without permission, a very scary monster will appear, and you will never see your parents again!" Teacher Lin interrupted the discussion of several people and reminded them anxiously.
Xia Yi nodded in agreement. When he entered, Teacher Yuan's voice had just reached the end of the story.
The children in the small beds were all lying down obediently.
Xia Yi noticed that Teacher Yuan and Teacher Lin looked at each other, and then Teacher Yuan stopped telling the story and urged them to go to bed.
Xia Yi bent his knees and lay down on his small bed, covered himself with a quilt, closed his eyes quietly, but clenched his fists to stay awake.
Teacher Yuan continued to tell the story: "...The prince inherited the kingdom and lived happily with the princess. Their people also lived a happy and healthy life under the prince's rule..." His voice was soft.
The story that reaches its end seems to have a hypnotic power.
Xia Yi couldn't help but yawn, his clenched fists loosened, and his clear consciousness quickly became blurred by the sound of the story.
The expected scene appears in the dream, making people smile unconsciously.
I don’t know how long it took, but I felt a faint pain between my bent legs.
Xia Yi was affected by the pain, and his consciousness left the dream and returned a little.
"This is the last student transferring today." Teacher Lin's respectful voice rang out, instantly waking Xia Yi up. How had she fallen asleep? Who was Teacher Lin talking to? Just by hearing her voice, she could see the smile bulging across her round, apple-shaped face, even a hint of flattery. This person must be the reason they were so anxious.
"Sister, this one is taller than the previous ones. Although he's growing faster, there's nothing wrong with his kindergarten checklist. He's perfectly healthy!"
Xia Yi closed his eyes and gently adjusted his breathing.
"Sister, have you reviewed all the information?" Teacher Yuan was there, her voice clear and undimmed by the sleeping child. "In my opinion, the child who came today is the most suitable. She's young and beautiful."
"I need to think about it again." As the old female voice sounded, a pair of rough hands touched her arm.
Xia Yi's eyelids twitched, and she almost couldn't hold back her expression. In the darkness, his palms moved back and forth on her body, from wrists to shoulders to ankles, and finally, he patted her cheek as if he was picking out fine pork.
"Sister, you have to make a decision quickly. We've already announced the activities for our Thanksgiving gathering, and we need to prepare all the necessary rituals in advance. Tomorrow, we should lead the children in setting up the venue for the gathering. The scene they've created will be a real surprise for their parents," Teacher Lin said, taking credit for the event. "I've also cleaned the log altar where we were born, so it's ready for use. This will make the ceremony much easier."
"I have also almost finished teaching our kindergarten's anthem." Teacher Yuan also hurriedly took credit.
Xia Yi had a guess about the owner of the old female voice. This woman was probably Teacher Zhou whom she had seen in the photo before. However, Teacher Zhou's voice seemed to be much older than her appearance. The various pauses and speaking styles made her sound more like an old lady in her seventies or eighties.
"Why does it seem like two people are missing?" Teacher Zhou said again.
The surroundings fell silent for a while before Teacher Yuan spoke. "At noon, Bai Zhu was thrown into another child's bed by her sleepwalking. At night, several of the new children went to the woods behind the house. One of them died. Teacher Lin and I put away their things."
"What a good thing you've done! How can the memories of two children not be confused when mixed together?!" Teacher Zhou scolded in a low voice. "I've told you all along, the children are still absorbing our memories and are very fragile. Be patient when watching them. We're not as large as human families. Losing a child means losing a member of our race, and we won't become any stronger."
"I specially selected you two. Please restrain your thoughts and don't let me down."
"I understand, sister." Teacher Lin and Teacher Yuan said in unison.
After a long time, Xia Yi felt that the gaze on him was withdrawn and footsteps were heard walking out.
"Sister, don't worry. I've got these newcomers under control. They won't sleepwalk again." Teacher Yuan said, "After we finish the sacrifice, these little brats won't be afraid of anything. Those dirty things won't be able to touch them. When our tribe grows up, we'll naturally be able to bring more children into our group."
"We should be more cautious. Bai Zhu's parents haven't noticed anything unusual, right?"
"No, I used my ability to call his parents."
Xia Yi heard the footsteps gradually fading away and the sound of a door closing, then she slowly relaxed her clenched fists. After waiting for a long time until the surroundings were quiet and only the child's breathing could be heard, she gently let out the foul breath in her heart and opened her mouth slightly.
The next moment, an old female voice exploded in Xia Yi's ears like thunder.
"It seems that the child really fell asleep. What a pity."
"I've observed this child carefully. She's timid and withdrawn. She's been here all day and hasn't spoken more than three sentences to any of the other kids. Choosing her will definitely not lead to any accidents."
After Teacher Lin finished speaking, the footsteps of the three people were heard again, and the sound of the door closing lightly was also heard for the second time.
Xia Yi's tongue was pressed tightly against his upper palate, and sweat soaked the pillow under his head.
Xia Yi did not sleep any more. She waited until it became bright all around and the chirping of children could be heard around her. Then she opened her eyes, sat up, got up, and moved her body. Her body was very stiff because she had been in the same position for a long time.
"Are you all awake, kids?" Not long after I got up, Teacher Lin walked in, smiling. "Make sure your quilts are folded. I'll take you to wash up and change clothes. Today, we'll all wear kindergarten uniforms."
"Yiyi, you newcomers haven't received your school uniforms yet. When you pass by the teacher's office later, go in and ask Teacher Zhou to get a few. Our school uniforms are all with Teacher Zhou, and we have all sizes available." Teacher Lin reminded Xia Yi as he was pulling a group of children outside.
Teacher Zhou's office is at the westernmost end of the entire office, separated by frosted glass. Standing at the bathroom door, you can't see any of Teacher Zhou's office.
When she went there, Teacher Zhou was not there, and there were piles of information on the desk and computer.
-Bai Zhe, male, 30 years old, height: 181, job: owner of a local restaurant, spouse: widowed, relative: Bai Zhu.
-Gao Jixing, male, 31 years old, height: 183 cm, job: Bank director...
-Xia Yi, female, 2 years old, height: 167, kindergarten student, father: ...
Xia Yi found her own information among a pile of parents' information sheets, and only her and Bai Zhe's forms had big check marks on them, marking them as important. When she took the information, the medical record at the bottom was pulled out.
Xia Yi paused. It was from Teacher Zhou. It was covered with messy lines and words, and one could only vaguely read the symptoms on it.
Zhou Guiqin, advanced gastric cancer? ?
Haven’t these monsters been able to conquer cancer too?
There was a relatively clear line of text on the medical record. Xia Yi lowered his head and squinted his eyes as he read silently: I need to find a new body.
Dong, dong, dong. Just as Xia Yi was reading Chinese characters seriously, footsteps were approaching.
