I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today

—If Mary and the cat found the clock tower, they would first find Shen Fei and launch an attack on him, ignoring the possibility of others hiding on top of the tower.

Bai Youwei’s feelings became somewhat intricate.

She wanted Shen Mo to treat her better, but for her safety, he unhesitatingly let his cousin use himself as a shield. That was really ruthless! …It made her feel a little embarrassed~

(Blushing)

…

In fact, Shen Mo hadn’t given that much thought.

He just felt that as a man of the Shen Family, Shen Fei should protect women and the weak. This was a responsibility a man should bear, and it had nothing to do with anything else.

(Aloof)

…

The group left the stage and walked out of the puppet theater.

The sun was bright outside, the blue sky was cloudless, the white daylight shone on everyone’s faces, bright enough to be suffocating.

They had already spent two days and two nights in this game.

Now it was the third day.

On the way to the carousel, things began to change a bit.

They found many stuffed toys by the side of the road, but these were toys that were left only with their outer layer; their fluffy inner cores had been hollowed out.

Seeing flattened teddy bears, dogs, and little ducks laying on the ground, it gave off an inexplicable eeriness. Everyone became vigilant and continued forward.

They arrived again at the carousel.

After burning all night, the area was no longer bright and shiny as it first was, but a mess, blackened all over, filled countlessly with disassembled puppet dolls.

The cat puppet’s head had been sewn back on, and cotton was stuffed into its two front paws, wrapped in cloth. But the back legs had not been fixed in time, left bare, revealing the metal frame.

Mary had also been partially fixed; the scorched face had become fair and delicate again. As there was no suitable material to fix the hair, yellow wool was temporarily used as a substitute.

The part below the head was still metallic, just like a robot doll with a human head.

She was leaning on the rag doll, sleeping on the cat puppet. One arm was a triangular bayonet, while the other hand was holding a needle and thread, as if she had been sewing all night and was exhausted.

For a moment everyone looked at each other.

No wonder nothing had happened last night; it turned out that Mary didn’t bother looking for them at all.

Was sewing the cat puppet back together more important than finding the hide-and-seek players?

This matter was unfathomable, and they had no way of finding an answer to it.

Yan Qingwen looked around and said, “Quite a lot of places have been burned.”

Fantasy Street and Dreaming Garden were almost all ruined, nearly half of the Fairy Tale Kingdom was also burnt. Fortunately, the mine of the dwarves had blocked the spread of the fire; otherwise, it would have been hard for them to find a hiding place if everything was burnt.

…Suddenly a sense of having shot themselves in the foot.

Yan Qingwen sighed.

“Maybe we don’t need to find a hiding place anymore.” Yu Yaqing said seriously, “As long as we kill Mary this time, the game of hide-and-seek will end.”

Will it end?

Everyone looked at each other and fell silent.

“Alright, let’s get started.” Yan Qingwen stretched his arms, and began assigning tasks, “Yu Yaqing and Tan Xiao are responsible for finding hiding spots. Find all the possible places to hide in the amusement park, and then everyone decides where to hide tonight.

Shen Mo, Lun Ang and I will set up traps around the carousel.

Shen Fei is injured, he can rest somewhere.

Youwei, you just mentioned going up to the clock tower, go up and survey the situation, perhaps from above, there are aspects we may have failed to notice—”

After saying everything, he looked at everyone and extended his right hand:

“Let’s hope, this is the last day.”
