A lion's face looked at Sean funny: "What's wrong?"
Looking at Moonlight wearing a lion's hood, Sean pinched his chin, feeling an inexplicable sense of disobedience.
In the suspicious eyes of everyone, Moonlight 1902 spread out his hands: "What's wrong? What do you mean by your eyes?"
"Don't you think a lion suits me very well?"
Sean, Olivia and Father Taylor all shook their heads.
Moonlight took off her hood with some annoyance and said loudly: "I just want to wear a lion hood - lions are so majestic!"
"Furthermore," he turned the lion's face with hollow eyes toward him, "I don't know what the next game will be.
"It's always better to choose a beast, right?"
Sean somewhat agrees with the second reason mentioned by Moonlight——
What if the next game is animal hunting?
It's better to be a lion than a sheep, right?
but……
Sean shook his head: "The choice of headgear should be more important...
“Before that kid went out, he specifically stated that he should choose the one that suits him.
"If you make such a random choice, you are likely to be punished."
Moonlight held the lion's head, her face flushed slightly: "How can you say it was a random choice?
"Don't I look like the king of beasts?!"
Sean, Olivia and Father Taylor shook their heads again.
"Okay, okay!" The frustrated Moonlight reluctantly put the lion's head back on the shelf.
"Then what do I look like?" He stood in the middle of the room angrily and asked with his waist in his hands.
Olivia walked around the room with a serious expression. When she saw a hood, she took it off and put it in Moonlight's hand.
A wild boar head with black hair and yellow tusks.
Moonlight jumped in anger: "Does this look like me?!" He waved the boar's head: "——It's too much! Too, too much!"
Sean appreciates Olivia's sense of humor, but he still takes the boar's head back from Moonlight.
Knowing that the girl was teasing him, Moonlight made an angry face at Olivia.
Olivia hid behind Sean, an expression of biting her lower lip to hold back laughter appeared on her originally cold face.
Seeing Olivia's rare smile, Yueguang's anger disappeared immediately.
"Moonlight's idea is quite good." Sean praised it.
"Which idea?" The pianist thought the captain was mocking him and asked a little cautiously.
“If you let yourself choose a headgear, you will inevitably fall into wrong perceptions.
"It may be more suitable for you to let the people around you help you choose."
Father Taylor nodded repeatedly: "That's true. People can't always clearly understand themselves. If they want to piece together their true selves, they still need the help of people around them."
"In this case..." Yueguang suddenly looked a little hopeful, "Then let's do it one by one."
The pianist looked at Olivia deliberately and seriously: "No joking this time."
Then, he pointed to Sean: "Then let's start with Xiao - the three of us will help him choose the one that suits him best."
After saying that, he turned around and started choosing with great interest.
Based on Sean's knowledge of Moonlight, he thought that the naughty pianist would follow Olivia's previous example and joke about a ridiculous balaclava.
For example, domestic pigs or hairless monkeys, etc.
"Huh? This..." Moonlight seemed to have discovered something. He reached out and took off the hood, "Guys, take a look at this."
He thought Yueguang had chosen a bad hood, but Sean saw that he was holding a wolf's head.
A Nordic gray wolf.
Olivia's red eyes shone slightly, and she nodded gently: "It's him."
"Strong and resourceful..." Father Taylor nodded slightly, "He is a powerful hunter when walking alone, and he can survive the difficult winter with his troops.
"Xiao does look like a wolf king."
This hood seemed to be a compliment, so Sean turned his head and took it, saying "thank you".
"Next is the moonlight." Sean turned around and started searching, and his eyes soon fell on a hood...
It didn't take long for all four of them to find a headgear that suited them.
Moonlight held the white horse's head and looked at it repeatedly, as if looking for similarities between the headgear and her own.
What Olivia was holding was a vigorous antelope.
Father Taylor held a scarred Indian tiger head under his arm, and the stubborn expressions between the two eyebrows were somewhat similar.
"Guys..." Sean's eyes swept over the faces of the team members, "Remember our respective appearances.
"No matter what happens, never get separated."
The four of them exchanged looks, took a breath, and put on their hoods together.
Through the narrow vision of the hood, Sean noticed that something seemed to have changed around him——
"This is……?"
Only after the door was suddenly opened did he realize what the change was.
The gray rabbit wearing a red dot dress stood at the door.
Before, Sean visually estimated that her age should be around twelve years old.
Sean found that he was at eye level with her at this moment - their heights had become the same.
"Are we getting smaller?!" Yueguang said in surprise as her originally thin and slender hands became a little tender.
He raised his eyes, his eyes full of panic and shock.
Sean was much calmer: "Don't panic. This is more like some kind of illusion, a special effect of this spiritual world."
"Tonight's 'Stay Ceremony' is about to begin," Gray Rabbit said in a cold voice, "Please take your candles and follow the crowd to the hall."
The four of them, Sean, picked up the silver-lacquered candlesticks placed in the corner, walked out of the room, and quickly joined the crowd of addicts.
Before, as adults, they looked at these hidden children with a sense of distance.
At this moment, they were also wearing hoods and holding candles. Among these mysterious children, their "self" seemed to have disappeared.
It's like becoming a member of the addicted group.
Moonlight, who was in a daze, quickly shook her head.
While silently reciting "Wolf, antelope, Indian tiger; gray wolf, antelope, Indian tiger...", he confirmed that Sean, Olivia and Father Taylor were beside him.
Watching them repeatedly, he suddenly felt a little funny again——
Including himself, the four of them all turned into children, but the clothes on their bodies did not become children's, but shrunk in proportion.
Like a couple of kids imitating adult clothing.
The priest's black robe made him look even more weird: paired with a tiger head, it looked like a tiger-headed little monster running out of a cave somewhere...
Next to the long corridor is a huge stone pillar with a sheep body and a human head.
The strange gods on the stone pillars seemed to stare at the moving wave of candlelight.
Hundreds of children wearing animal heads held candles and walked forward slowly and quickly.
The corridor was illuminated by candlelight, and the moonlight suddenly gave me a feeling of happiness, security and joy.
So, is it such a joy to be in it?
The adult in my heart is warning me, but the child in my heart already wants to break out of the barrier.
Lights, castles, friends, playgrounds...
It seems like it would be nice to stay here forever?
Next to him, little Sean, wearing a gray wolf hood, awakened the wandering moonlight with his eyes.
"What's wrong?" In the hurried candlelight group, they gathered a little more.
Sean's eyes were obviously a little excited, and he desperately pointed in one direction with the silver-painted candlestick in his hand...
The white horse, antelope and Indian tiger also turned their attention.
It was a pair of addicts walking ahead.
Their age is relatively older among addicts.
Judging from her figure, she should be around sixteen or seventeen years old.
One of the boys was wearing a red shirt, a hooded cloak, and a goat hood.
The girl walking next to him was wearing a green dress, playing the role of a female deer with white spots on her head.
In the slightly noisy team, the two of them kept talking in low voices.
"What's wrong with them?..." Yueguang frowned suspiciously. In order to hear their words clearly, he extended his ectoplasm to act as a listening ear, "Is there anything special?..."
Moonlight's questions were quickly answered.
He heard the doe say quietly but urgently to the goat:
"...Don't leave Paradise, stay with me, Wordsworth!"
Wordsworth...?
Under the hood and mask, Yueguang looked shocked.
This name...?
The young playwright who was used by the God in Red in the mission "The Non-Existent Drama"? !
