  Chapter 155 The puppet on the first floor

The girl in the white skirt smiled first, and then said: "You also believe in fairy tales, how can people not grow old? If you want to hear the original fairy tale city stories, you have to go to the old people, but the old people in the fairy tale city will either die of illness , or moved to other cities, and the rest are at home for the elderly, do not like to go out."

   "The owner of Jimu Momo and the owner of Long Nose Nut Pie are the old people from the original Fairy Tale City, but you may not be there when you go to find them."

   "I'll say whatever I want." Xu Huo bought two umbrellas and gave her one, "Let's have dinner together."

  The girl in the white skirt smiled shyly.

The two had dinner together and then separated. The girl in white skirt held an umbrella and left the noisy main street, and entered a complicated street. However, she was stopped by a man and a woman as soon as she walked in. The woman put a dagger on her. neck, "What did that man ask you just now?"

  The girl in the white dress panicked, and took out the tour guide fee that Xu Huo had paid her, "All my money is here..."

   "Who wants your money!" The man snorted, but the woman snatched the money first, and glared at the man, "Don't want it for nothing, it's our money anyway!"

  The man grabbed the girl in the white skirt by the shoulder, and said fiercely, "If I ask you what, tell the truth, and I promise not to hurt you."

  The girl in the white skirt swallowed her saliva, "The man just now was just a tourist, so he asked where to find the old man in the Fairy Tale City of Building Blocks."

   "Say it! Where!"

   "Building block steamed buns and delicious sausage shop..." the girl in the white skirt said in a low voice.

   "Where else can you find elderly people other than these two places?" the man asked again.

   "No, no more... Most of the old people in Fairy Tale City have died of illness..." the girl in the white skirt hurriedly said.

  The man threw her away, exchanged glances with the woman, and left in a hurry.

  After they left, the girl in the white skirt picked up the umbrella that had fallen on the ground, wiped the stains on the hem of her skirt, and continued walking.

   After walking for a few minutes, a hand suddenly stretched out from the corner, strangled her throat and asked, "What did those two people ask you?"

  The girl in the white dress breathed hard, and said in a stuttering way: "They want...know where the...that guest I brought is going?"

"Place."

   "Bear Claw Restaurant...and Delicious Sausage Shop...nothing else..."

   When she was about to suffocate, the hand suddenly released. The girl in white skirt knelt on the ground and coughed non-stop. At this time, a tall and strong man jumped down from above, and he handed her a handkerchief.

  The girl in the white dress looked at him fearfully, "Do you also want to ask where that guest is going?"

  The tall and strong man gave her a stack of money.

  The girl in the white skirt hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take it, "He is going to find the old man in Fairy Tale City, and I told him about the delicious sausage shop and the building block bun shop."

  The man nodded and left.

  The girl in the white skirt stood up again after a while, put the money in the bag, picked up the umbrella and turned it around towards the sky, then put it on her right shoulder, walked briskly out of the path, and headed for the accommodation area.

In a dessert shop a few streets away, after listening to Wang Qiao, Gao Baimei, a stranger, and Shen Tai three groups of people questioning the girl in white skirt, Xu Huo looked at the anti-theft monitor screen he bought from the mall. The above point has been moving to the depths of the accommodation area, and finally stopped at the bear claw restaurant.

   Tapped his finger on the screen, he turned off the anti-theft device, checked out and left the dessert shop, went out and went straight to the Bear Claw restaurant.

  It was already dusk at this time, the Fairy Tale City was closed, and tourists began to look for places to stay.

  Although there are diners tirelessly telling foreigners about the horror of the Bear Claw restaurant, there are still many tourists staying here.

  Xu Huo followed the waiter to register, and saw the umbrella he gave to the girl in the white skirt in the item box in the corridor on the fifth floor.

  With a slight smile, he opened the room he reserved.

  Not long after he moved in, Tao Chengxin, carrying a backpack, walked into the Bear Claw restaurant in the last few minutes before closing.

  The sky darkened quickly, and the Fairy Tale City gradually became deserted and quiet.

  Late at night when the waiters were not walking around in the store, there was a creaking sound in the corridor on the fifth floor. The sound passed by Xu Huo's door and went downstairs.

   Not long after, the smell of food wafted up from downstairs.

   "Is there any supper in the middle of the night?" A guest who was not asleep walked out of the room and went downstairs muttering.

   After a while, Xu Huo also came out, glanced at the room opposite, and headed towards the stairs.

  As soon as he left, the door of the opposite room was opened, and Tao Chengxin followed cautiously.

  The first and second floors of the Xiongpao restaurant are both dining areas. There are no lights on these two floors at night, but Xu Huo's eyes have evolved night vision capabilities, so he can see clearly the situation in the restaurant.

  Except for the guests who passed by his door just now, there are already six people sitting in the dining room. They each occupy a table, their expressions are a little blank, but their hands are hanging on the table, as if they are paddling something.

  He looked at the door for a few seconds before turning around and continuing down the stairs to the restaurant on the first floor.

  The dining room on the first floor was also in darkness, but there was a low-profile figure who was cleaning the stains on the ground stiffly. He neither touched anything nor made a sound during his actions.

As if sensing the gaze from behind, the figure suddenly turned around. Xu Huo hid by the door first, then grabbed the strings and hung upside down on the top of the first floor. At the same time, a kitchen knife flew out of the door and stuck halfway into the wall In front of him, a shadow jumped out of the door, jumped onto the handle of the kitchen knife, squatted on it, and turned his head 180 degrees from side to side!

   It turned out to be a puppet.

Its limbs are made of wood, the joints are connected by a white soft object, and there is no hindrance or sound when it turns. The eyes and mouth are made of two beads and two pieces of wood. There is a hat on the head, although some wood Stiff, but the hands and feet will not bump when imitating human movements.

The puppet has no ears, and the eyes made of glass beads do not seem to have the function of seeing. After turning its head at 360 degrees and failing to find the target, it jumped off the wall and pulled out the kitchen knife by the way. .

Just when it was about to return to the restaurant on the first floor with the kitchen knife crookedly in hand, the bell of the second floor suddenly heard the sound of passing food. The puppet turned its head back, and the two wooden bars of its mouth were turned down to make an angry expression. , and rushed up to the second floor backwards!

  Then there were slashing and screams from upstairs, but in just ten seconds, the slashing stopped abruptly with the sound of tables and chairs falling to the ground—suddenly erupted and then stopped suddenly.

  Xu Huo lay there without moving. Suddenly, he raised his head as if feeling something, and met a wooden head that quietly appeared at the corner of the stairs on the second floor.

  The puppet hangs crookedly by the railing, with its head resting on its shoulders, and its two eyes "staring" straight at him.
