On the stage, No. 17 slowly raised its face.
After 'No. 17''s face completely appeared in Huan Xiao's sight, she couldn't help but slightly widen her eyes.
It was a smooth white color, and the face shape was that of an oval face when No. 17 was alive.
However, there are no facial features on the flat face. The eyes, nose, mouth... all disappeared. It was like a semi-finished product made of clay, before the details of the face could be pinched out.
"...judge?"
The indistinguishable voice of male and female came from the direction of the human ghost. It followed the direction of the pumpkin head and saw the judges' seat.
"Hello judges, I am a human ghost."
In the dark environment, the voice of the human ghost changed again, as if it had a voice changer installed in its body.
Seeing the humans and ghosts greeting them, the judges all expressed their admiration for the humans and ghosts.
The long-haired ghost nodded and said in a hoarse voice:
"I like this toy, it seems better behaved than the previous ones."
The little girl ghost shouted to the pumpkin-headed host:
"Pumpkin head, pumpkin head! Can you lend it to me for a few days after the variety show is over? I gave away my last toy."
On the stage, Pumpkinhead shook his head helplessly and apologized to the little girl:
"I'm really sorry, Judge 02, the human ghost will be released after the variety show ends. If you are really interested, you can try to catch it."
"What, you just lent me to play with, it's not like I won't return it to you!" The little girl picked up the dog in her arms dissatisfied and threw the motionless dog body on Pumpkin Head's head.
I saw that the half-rotted dog exploded into a flesh and blood firework the moment it touched the pumpkin head, and the pumpkin head was covered with shredded dog hair.
Even the bodies of the humans and ghosts next to them were covered with pieces of rotten flesh.
The audience burst into laughter, but Huanxiao didn't know what they were laughing at.
The pumpkin head, which was teased by the little girl's ghost, had no other reaction. It took out a black cloth from its sleeves and wiped off the pieces of flesh stuck to its hood. With that calm look on his face, he seemed to have become accustomed to the little girl ghost throwing the dog away whenever he disagreed with her.
After it wiped off the stains on the hood, it stopped caring about the stains on the clothes.
Just listen to the pumpkin head host continue to say:
"Judge 02, even if you are like this, Pumpkinhead can't do anything about it. This is not something Pumpkinhead can decide, and you know that."
The little girl snorted coldly, took out another dead kitten from somewhere, hugged it, and said:
"Okay, do you hear the ghosts over there? Don't leave yet, play with me for a few more days, or if I see you in the future, I will make you into ghost meat buns for humans to eat! "
Its sound permeates the entire space.
But the human ghost didn't seem to hear the little girl ghost's words. It remained quiet, like a lifeless sculpture.
The bandaged ghost on the right followed:
"I also want to borrow it for a few days. It just so happens that I have found a new hobby recently. Let the ghost accompany me."
"You all want to borrow it? Then I want to borrow it too!"
The headless ghost plunges into the battlefield.
Seeing that they had no intention of urging the game to start, the devil couldn't help it anymore:
"Pumpkin head, start quickly! Don't waste time, I also want to try to see how powerful the newly produced ghost is."
Huan Xiao echoed from the side:
"Let's go to the next level of the game first. If you want to borrow it, you can intercept it near the end."
She wanted to go back quickly, but sitting like this all the time made her feel uncomfortable. There was a big difference between humans and ghosts.
The little girl ghostly touched the cat in her arms and looked at Huan Xiao:
"03, do you also like human ghosts? How about we stop it together later? Then I'll let you play with it when I'm done playing."
"No, I'm not interested in it. You guys should just play."
When the game ends, they will no longer be able to find her, and Huanxiao doesn't want to compete with them for a ghost.
The little girl ghost glanced at Huanxiao thoughtfully and asked:
"03, are you really not a human being?"
Huan Xiao asked her back:
"If I were a human, do you think I would answer honestly?"
"...That's right, then I'll just treat you as a ghost."
After the little girl ghost finished speaking, she stopped talking to Huan Xiao and seemed to be planning to let Huan Xiao go.
Pumpkinhead saw that all the judges had almost communicated with each other, so he began to prepare for the start of the next level of the game.
I don’t know what it did, but a tall screen rose up on the stage.
The screen was facing the direction of the judges' seat, and it looked like it was specially prepared for the judges.
Huan Xiao saw that the picture on the screen was over an empty square.
In the middle of the square is a sculpture of a man.
But the person's face does not have an expression of holiness or joy, but a look of horror looking somewhere in the air, and the posture of the body is defensive.
The picture on the screen was moving down, and Pumpkin Head also announced loudly with a skull microphone at this time:
"The fourth level of the game, Toy City is about to begin!"
"Before we begin, please let Pumpkinhead explain the rules of the game again.
In one hour of game time, we will put two hundred toys in the toy city, and the human ghosts we just produced will go in and hunt the toys.
The direction in which humans and ghosts walk will be controlled by the votes of the judges. The minority obeys the majority. If there is a tie, the audience will choose a direction to move forward. "
As soon as these words came out, the ghost audience became excited.
"Kill them all! Kill them all! Kill them all! Kill them all!"
They have weird smiles on their faces, swaying their bodies and urging Pumpkin Head in the audience.
Pumpkin Head snapped his fingers and saw two hundred people appear on the screen out of thin air, all of them looking confused.
Some people looked at their phones, some asked others about the situation, and some people couldn't stand the weird atmosphere around them and ran outside.
Judging from the outside of the screen, there are only a small number of players, and most of them are aborigines.
The noise on the other side of the screen clearly reached Huanxiao's ears, and she heard someone inside say:
"...one hour...over."
"Where is this? Why haven't I been here before?"
"...It's not a dream...a ghost."
However, the camera continued to move downwards, until it stopped at the position where the sculpture was looking at in horror.
An electronic sound appeared in the sky above the toy city:
"Welcome to Toy City!
This game lasts for one hour. There are 200 toys in the game. The captor is a human ghost. Please hide the toys before the human ghost arrives.
When the game ends, the living toys will be immediately expelled from the toy city, so please be mentally prepared!
...The human ghost has ten seconds to reach the toy city.
ten……
…”
Everyone in the square was whispering.
"...Human ghost? What is that?"
"New prank show? I don't remember signing up for it."
"It's so weird. Who is pretending to be a ghost?"
Most aborigines don't believe this is a real ghost. Several people were laughing and joking. They stepped on the calf of the sculpture, causing several dark footprints to instantly appear on the snow-white sculpture.
Of course, a few aborigines and most of the players realized that this was a countdown to escape, so they ran out of the square without saying much.
"two……
one……
This game has started. I wish you all a happy game. "
At the same time, Pumpkinhead announced loudly:
"The fourth level of the game has officially begun!"
