The back kitchen is located on the south side of the circus, and it is not yet directly accessible.

There is a hidden fork in the hallway leading to the restaurant, which can only be identified by the main members of the circus.

When the animal tamer Zok was about to open the secret door, Catherine dodged and squeezed the other party behind her, "I'm coming!" I got it! ”

There is a small depression in the wall of the passage in front of which is made of large rough stones,

Catherine pressed her finger upwards first, leaving the outline of the groove imprinted on the surface of the finger...... Swish! Cut off the finger meat of the corresponding shape and stuff it into it tightly.

Thundered!

The door is sunken, and a hidden passage made of crimson stone bricks is revealed, and the entire passage is not only clean, but even deeply polished, clean and hygienic.

At the end of the passage is the entrance to the back kitchen.

It is not so much a back kitchen as a sterile laboratory, with a complex structure corresponding to the "buffer room" inside the entrance, which is used for the physical disinfection of visitors and the change of clothing. In the event of an emergency in the kitchen, the buffer room can also be used as an isolation.

There is also a kitchen employee guarding the door,

Wearing a surgeon-like surgical gown, a surgical cap, and a fully enclosed breathing mask, he filters out his exhaled air and keeps it absolutely clean.

At the same time, he also wears a black leather butcher's apron over the surgical gown, which is engraved with the stamp of "Hair Circles the Meat Block", representing the unit to which he belongs - [Fear Kitchen].

As a big man like Zoke showed his intentions, the other party also politely introduced everyone into the buffer room, and they were isolated in a single disinfection room.

William thought it would be a very cumbersome process, but when he was about to undress, a burst of white light swept by, and the disinfection was completed, and a notification sound came from the side of the wall:

"Your garment is special, clean and tidy, no germs have been detected that could contaminate the kitchen, but the smell of death flowing inside the garment can sanitize well.

So you don't need to change your outfit, you just need to wear our apron here. ”

The notification ends, and the side door opens.

A special black apron hung on the side of the exit door of the buffer room, and the moment William put on the apron.

Airplanes! The ringing sound of the ears actually echoed in the brain, and at the same time, it also gave rise to a desperate desire to cook. Although he was quickly suppressed by the insane brain, William looked surprised.

"Does the apron still have this purpose? When you wear it, you will want to make a delicious meal...... It's funny. ”

As William stepped out of the buffer room, a crimson-themed and large kitchen area came into view, allowing up to twenty people to cook at the same time.

A stove with a flame formation printed on it,

Body cavity tank for patients with dryness and heat with baking and simmering functions,

An in-house vegetable garden with a variety of vegetables and fruits,

The food processing area is full of knives, torture tools, and even operating table fixtures.

and a garbage area with 28 garbage sorting grooves and treatment devices such as grinders, meat grinders, etching solutions.

The variety of the kitchen is beyond William's imagination, but his eyes are constantly wandering among the various kitchen utensils, as if searching for something, and finally freezes on a safe embedded in the deep wall.

Even with the multiple seals, William could still feel a hint of fear spilling through the cracks in the safe.

Different from Catherine's nightmare phobia, and different from Yat's dense phobia the clown...... This is not a certain fear, but a primordial fear that has no defined nature.

As William focused on his observations, this fear penetrated William's eyes and spread out between the retina, presenting a dynamic video, which felt like watching VR.

The video leads William to a sealed chamber littered with wriggling pieces of flesh and black hair in the cracks.

Primal fears floated from the deepest depths, turning into arms carved with human faces dragging William's body and dragging them into the depths.

"William, do you need me to burn the unknown substance between the retina? It doesn't seem good to continue watching like this." The voice of the little grape came.

"Don't ...... Read on.'"

William did not reject the visual image of fear and continued to watch.

As we went deeper, the amount of flesh and hair increased, and even some pieces of flesh with long hair appeared, and they were designed to take the shape of a human head, crawling slowly with the terrified tentacles growing from their necks, or hanging in the air and shaking their heads constantly.

Even with only visual observations, William had already begun to gasp for breath, and the fear in his body was pouring out like a tide.

It's not that the picture in front of you is scary,

Rather, it is the proportions and tones of these images, the proportional arrangement of various pieces of flesh and matter, the oppression of thinking brought about by the limited space, and the completely unknown source of fear in the deepest part.

All kinds of factors are stacked on top of each other, deepening the fear, and multiplying the fear at the visual level dozens of times.

William continued to hold hard and finally reached the deepest depth, blocking him with a dense curtain formed by black hair, and when he reached out and tried to lift the curtain,

A tingling sensation instantly came from the palm of his hand, and the picture disappeared back to reality.

It wasn't the pain of a hair awl, but the blood was oozing from someone with a fingernail into the jaw of William's palm.

"The scene behind the curtain is not what you can see now...... However, you seem to have a good affinity for the "fear" aspect, and you can reach the depth of the hair curtain by feeling the primordial fear for the first time. ”

Standing beside him was the animal trainer Zorke, whose beastly brain sensed William's state and snuffed him off in a moment of danger.

"Is the boss behind the curtain?"

"No...... It's something you can't see yet.

Once you see it, this primordial and pure fear will encroach on your mind, and your soul and body will be completely confused in fear and eventually collapse and transform in some unforeseen direction. ”

"Got it."

Zock still looks undressed, but with an extra black apron and his exaggerated skull mask, he feels like a butcher of the wilderness.

At this moment, Catherine, who was the slowest speed, changed into a black and white chef's outfit and walked out, "Huh! William, why didn't you change your clothes? ”

Before William could answer, a voice came from the depths of the back kitchen, "Because his clothes meet the cleanliness standards of the back kitchen, there is no need to change clothes." ”

End of voice,

A white-haired old man slowly walked out of the shadows, dressed like a doctor in the gentlemen's organization,

It's just that his face is very special, it seems that in order to delay aging, there are multiple skin grafts and sutures on his face, and at least five different colors and delicate skin are sutured on his face.

In addition, he wears a very special breathing mask, which only covers his mouth, and the specifications are large, and there is a feeling of a storage box.

When William tried to spy on the strange respirator, he found that it was actually a tongue inside, an extra-long structure of tongue that was still secreting saliva.

Excess saliva is removed using the mask's circulatory system and removed periodically.

As William looked closely, he actually saw small pink arms on the surface of his tongue, hundreds, and what seemed to be the structure of the eyes.

"Are there any diseases related to the 'tongue'?"

At this time, the animal tamer on the side, Zuck, introduced, "Chef Timmy, this is my good friend, William. Behrens. I took him to get acquainted with the kitchen, and he will surely become a major member of the circus in the future. ”

"It's rare to see Zoke recommend someone so much, and not even from your zoo.

Since you value it so much, do you want to try cooking once? Under the premise of not using the meat cabinet, as long as the taste reaches 50% of the conventional standard, the cost can be waived. ”

Catherine on the side hurriedly sent a voice to persuade: "William, don't agree! You've never cooked before, and you're not familiar with the kitchen, so the cost of cooking is very high."

William ignored it, but looked sideways at Zorke, who had not expressed his opinion, and after the two looked at each other, he nodded in agreement.

"Okay, let me try it, but please give me ten minutes before you start to familiarize yourself with the overall structure of the back kitchen."
