Horror Kindergarten
"Yiyi, you came here to register alone? You are so brave. Come in with me and meet your classmates."
Xia Yi was pushed into the classroom by Teacher Yuan with a stiff face, facing more than 20 children.
"Yiyi, please introduce yourself first." Teacher Yuan said with a smile, "Children, this is a new transfer student. Can you let her introduce herself?"
"Good." The applause started out sporadic and then became louder and louder. The children clapped with joy on their faces.
After a while, Xia Yi raised her head and cast her gaze towards the girl with pigtails in the first row. She stared closely at her mouth, twisting the corners of her mouth into a perfect grin. She said the words she had rehearsed in her head several times: "Hello everyone, my name is Xia Yi. I'm very happy to be in this kindergarten. I hope to make friends with you all."
As soon as Xia Yi finished speaking, the applause broke out again under the leadership of the teacher.
"Minmin, do you have any questions?" Suddenly the girl with pigtails raised her hand high.
"Teacher, the new kid is so tall, taller than you."
"Minmin, Xia Yi has grown so tall because of her illness, but she's still a child at heart, younger than you. She's her younger sister, so you should get along well with her in the future."
"What disease did the little girl have?" Gao Minmin nodded, looking serious.
"Gigantism."
Xia Yi: “…” Stupid game.
She turned to look at Teacher Yuan, but accidentally hit Teacher Yuan's raised arm. She froze for a moment and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
However, the apology sounded particularly small in the noisy classroom.
On the emerald watch on Xia Yi's wrist, the code 005 is engraved in the middle. The flashing red camera, with Xia Yi as the central visual center, reflects all the scenes in the classroom and projects them into Xia Yi's live broadcast room in "The Ladder".
Players who enter "Ladder" will start live streaming by default. At this moment, many people have flocked to Xia Yi's live streaming room.
——Hahahaha, damn gigantism, this sister is so unlucky.
——This girl doesn’t look very old, but she doesn’t dare to speak loudly. Is she scared after entering the game? Why does she feel afraid even to speak? If she doesn’t even dare to ask questions loudly in the game, she will probably be the first to be eliminated!
——He looks good, but he is too timid and not generous at all.
——It’s really cowardly. What can this achieve? Come on, let’s place the bet. I bet that this newcomer will be the first to die.
— Kindergarten? A new scene? Are there any elderly people here? I'll go to their livestream room and take notes.
—Gigantism? Or a newcomer? This game was going to be tough. I'd seen a few before where people entered the game in their natural form, but it was too conspicuous, making them easy targets for the goblins. If this game involved fighting goblins, this newbie probably wouldn't make it to the end.
"Horror Kindergarten, Time to Clear: Three Days, Number of Players: Six, How to Clear: Find the Kindergarten's Secret, Find the Key, and Open the Door to Exit the Kindergarten to Complete."
As soon as Xia Yi sat on the bench, he received a game prompt for "Ladder".
The teacher arranged her to sit in the last row, and she could see the entire classroom.
The classroom looked like an ordinary classroom, with some dirty and old green walls covered with children's display paintings: My Mom. Next to the display paintings was a scoreboard covered with red stars. The child with the most stars was the one who had just asked what disease she had. Her name was Gao Minmin. Her little stars were crowded together and filled the entire box, ranking first by a large margin.
Knock, knock, knock! Teacher Yuan knocked on the old-fashioned blackboard on the podium. On the blackboard were the musical notes that Teacher Yuan had just drawn, as well as the lyrics of the song: "Children, Teacher Lin has gone out for something. How about we have music class in the first period?"
"Okay." The children shouted in unison.
The children in the first few rows were all staring intently at what Teacher Yuan was preparing to teach. Only the children in the last row were whispering to each other. Xia Yi listened carefully and found that they were all players of "Ladder". Including her, there were five people in total.
However, she was the only one who looked like an adult.
Xia Yi frowned and looked at her hand. Was there something wrong? Was it because of the eye piercing she had just done? She must not be so impulsive next time.
Xia Yi sighed silently. Although it sounded good, she couldn't control herself.
"Wang En, which game are you in?" The four players were getting to know each other.
"It's my second game. Bai Sisi, didn't you just go out? Has your strength and speed changed after becoming a child?" Wang En is a little boy wearing blue stripes.
"Bai Sisi said there's no change, and her strength is about the same as before." A boy said anxiously.
"My name is Ning Xi. Bai Sisi and I went out together. My body wasn't responding well."
Xia Yi secretly listened to the players' conversation. No one paid any attention to her, and no one wanted to talk to her. So how was she supposed to connect with those players online? Should she say hi first, or should she first point out that she was also a player? Xia Yi pursed her lips and was about to start a conversation when she met the gazes of several people. The scrutiny made Xia Yi slowly straighten her head.
"The teacher is going to sing the song and dance we performed for parents at the Thanksgiving gathering. All the children are required to perform on stage. Children, please listen carefully to how the teacher sings."
Teacher Yuan got down from the podium and walked around the classroom, singing nursery rhymes softly.
"We are different, we are all the same."
"In this happy paradise and perfect home, let's hold hands and dance together."
“Pat your shoulders, face to face, we are different, we are awesome; pat your shoulders, face to face, we are all the same, we are awesome!” Whenever Teacher Yuan sang “Bang Bang Bang”, the children below would follow Teacher Yuan’s movements, raising their thumbs and stretching them outwards to make an awesome gesture.
Under Teacher Yuan's gaze, Xia Yi stiffly raised his thumb and stretched it out.
She quietly turned sideways so that she could always pay attention to Teacher Yuan's movements.
"Children, after class, you can take a break and go play outside for a while. It's free time for everyone."
"Teacher, can we go anywhere?" It was Wang En who asked this question.
"Of course not. The only area where you can move freely is the playground. Be careful not to let the teacher see you." Teacher Yuan said, pointing to her eyes playfully.
Xia Yi ran out following the children's happy shouts. When she reached the door, she looked back at the nameplate on the classroom door: Chunhuahua Kindergarten Senior Class, but it seemed that there was only one senior class in the entire kindergarten.
She didn't see anyone from the middle and small classes.
Chunhuahua Kindergarten is not big. It faces east and west and is a deep rectangular building. The playground is a large open space with a rubber track, a small basketball hoop, a slide and a swing. Along the edge of the playground, you can see the rest room next to the classroom, the cafeteria, the teacher's office and the dance room. The gate of the kindergarten is on the west side, which is also the darkest place in the entire kindergarten.
Xia Yi walked along the edge of the playground. The gate of the kindergarten was a carved iron gate, more than two meters high. You could see the top of the gate by looking up, but it was very dark outside the kindergarten. The thick black seemed to be painted with black ink several times. Xia Yi looked for a long time before realizing that the black was smoke. Xia Yi took another step closer. At this time, she was only one step away from the gate of the kindergarten, thirty centimeters. The black fog suddenly rushed in from outside as if it smelled the fishy smell of food, wrapped around the iron gate and slowly climbed up.
The black fog covered most of the iron gate, swallowing up most of it bit by bit.
As if alive, it slowly depicted the pattern of the iron gate, even more exquisitely, and gradually turned into the shape of an iron gate.
A large black lock covered with rust could be vaguely seen on the big iron gate.
Xia Yi took a few steps back and walked slowly along the kindergarten wall for a while. The wall was also made of iron fences. The swirling black fog merged with the entire wall, and then swirled apart. When he reached the end, he saw a small forest planted with poplar, peach and willow trees. From west to east, it filled the area behind several kindergarten classrooms.
Before she could take a closer look, she heard hurried footsteps. Xia Yi turned around abruptly, took a step sideways, dodged Teacher Yuan's patting hand, and shouted, "Teacher."
"Yiyi, why are you here? Didn't the teacher tell you to move freely in the playground?" Teacher Yuan's tone was not anxious, but rather revealed a sense of joy with a hint of regret.
Xia Yi had sweat on his nose and said calmly, "Teacher, I thought this was also a playground. Look, the ground of the playground extends all the way to here." The cement ground did extend from the playground ground to this aisle, and under the woods was yellow-black soil.
Teacher Yuan was still smiling. She looked carefully at the child who had ducked his head to avoid her. She observed Xia Yi from head to toe, revealing a smile that was almost admiring. She took Xia Yi's hand and walked out to the playground. "Yiyi, you just got here today, so you may not be familiar with it. The playground I'm talking about is the large yard in front of our classroom. Next time, Yiyi, if you have any questions, please come and ask the teacher."
"good."
Xia Yi nodded, and listened to the cheers of the children outside getting closer and closer. Her heart finally settled down. She had been too reckless just now. She didn't want to know what the consequences of disobeying the teacher's orders were.
"Okay, go play with the kids."
Xia Yi nodded and looked back. Teacher Yuan's eyes were still fixed on her, staring intently, as if she had not eaten for hundreds of years. It was as if there were large pieces of mutton hanging on her body.
She lowered her gaze and quickly walked towards the group with the most children. The other contestants were also in that group. As she approached, she heard Bai Sisi ask, "Who is your favorite teacher in kindergarten?"
"I like Teacher Lin the best, Teacher Yuan too, and Teacher Zhou is third." The children raised their hands and answered noisily, "Teacher Lin is the prettiest." "Nonsense, I think Teacher Yuan is the prettiest!"
Special incidents in kindergartens are nothing more than abuse by teachers and parents, human traffickers, and sacrifices.
There's nothing wrong with the player's choice of insertion point.
However, the children's positive responses mean that these children are living well in kindergarten and have no worries.
"Are your parents good to you? Do they beat you? The first time my father beat me, I looked it up in a book. They said it's wrong for adults to abuse children. It's illegal." Bai Sisi continued to ask.
"My parents will beat people." A little boy said in a baby voice while holding a water gun.
"Really? How did he hit you?" Bai Sisi asked hurriedly as if she had found a breakthrough.
"That's it." The little boy raised the water gun in his hand. Another little girl had already stood opposite him. The little boy imitated the sound of a gun, "Bang, bang, bang, bang!"
The girl cooperated by covering her chest with her hands and fell down, yelling, "Ahhh, you're going to kill me!!"
As soon as the girl finished her performance, the children's cheerful laughter instantly filled the entire kindergarten.
Xia Yi: “…”
