"The environment here doesn't seem to be to the point where you need to eat bugs to survive, so why are there such machines?"

Kiriyama rejected Qiao Dui's "kindness" and thought again.

"No, no, it seems like there's something wrong."

He thought about it for a moment, he hadn't heard the chirping of insects since he came here, he hadn't seen birds in the mountains and forests, and the only animals he had seen were the corpses controlled by gray worms, and even whether those corpses were real dead animals or worm mimics were a little uncertain.

The last time I came to the school city, I didn't see anything like it, only machines and trees.

Is it possible that there are really no more animals in the school city?

Kiriyama was silent.

As a Chosen One, he has been to some foreign lands, and he should know that although there are human beings in the foreign lands he has seen, the development process of civilizations in different foreign lands is completely different, and he cannot take the theory of his own world for granted.

Although the school city seems to be a little more technologically advanced, Kiriyama is not sure if this world is really no different from anything else.

Of course, both from the description of the cans and from the image of these dolls, there were once normal animals in this world.

Seeing this, Qiao Du took care of eating the contents of the canned food by herself, feeling very satisfied.

"We'll sleep here tonight."

Qiao Du patted the table in the dining room, as if to see if it was solid.

There should be no danger in the amusement park other than those bugs, and sleeping on the floor of a haunted house might as well lie in a restaurant, or at least get a can of food if you're hungry.

Kiriyama nodded silently.

Neither of them had anything to show the time, and the time in the school city was not necessarily similar to their original world, and the night seemed very long under the starless night sky.

"Where did you spend the night?"

Joe Twilight packs up the canned food and asks John, the teddy bear.

"John said, we'll be in the theater."

John the teddy bear did not hide.

"Theater? It's the room next to the Ferris wheel. ”

Kiriyama remembered the map of the amusement park he saw in the control room.

"Raphael said, yes, there it is!"

Raphael, the turban-clad turtle, spun in a circle in a circle.

"Let's rest over there tonight."

Kiriyama said.

"Anna said, really, humans want to be with us?"

Anna the pink fox said as if in disbelief.

"George said, together!"

George, the three-eyed purple rabbit, shouted excitedly.

The dolls quickly lead the way and take Kiriyama and Jo Twilight to the amusement park's theater.

It is a circular building with an open air in the center and stepped seats on three sides.

You can imagine its pomp and circumstance, where actors dressed in a variety of costumes perform acrobatics, magic, and circus, turning fairy tales into reality and welcoming children's laughter.

Today, the theater is decadent, overgrown with weeds, and the lonely stage is empty.

Due to the lack of maintenance for many years, one corner of the theater has collapsed under the wind and rain, and the dolls gather under the eaves on the other side and sit together.

They don't need a firelight, but now that the amusement park is powered on, the lights on the theater side are on.

Under the bright yellow light, he didn't know if it was the illusion of Kiriyama, and he felt that the faces of these dolls were a little melancholy.

"Can you just sit here and rest, it's quite spacious."

Jo Twilight walked around the audience with great interest, as if to see if there was anything interesting.

"Anna said, people will be here to remember."

Anna the pink fox replied.

"Memories?"

Kiriyama frowned.

"John said, yes, memories, because it's about remembering what humans look like, so people keep remembering."

John the teddy bear nodded his round head.

"How do you remember?"

Jo Twilight didn't have any fun to discover, and when she came back, she happened to hear their conversation.

Bruno said, like this.

Bruno, a Dalmatian dog in a yellow waistcoat, sat in the audience, and suddenly, his eyes creaked mechanically, and then lit up.

The light from his two eyes shone on the collapsed ceiling across the theater, projecting images.

I don't know if it's because of the age, or if there is a problem with the video itself, or if Bruno's projection equipment is aging, and those images are not clear, only some blurry figures can be seen.

At the same time, a slightly noisy sound came from the mouth of Bruno, a Dalmatian.

"Hello, Bruno, I'm having a good day."

A woman's voice came.

"I want Bruno to hug me."

A young child's voice sounds, the camera moves down slightly, and a small figure can be seen rushing towards the camera, as if it is still rubbing the camera.

"It is Bruno's greatest honour to be able to bring joy to everyone."

Bruno's voice rang out, full of pride and pride.

The picture dimmed, and soon lit up again.

"Listen, Bruno, shall I make a few pact with you?"

A man's voice rang out, and judging from the blurred picture, the other party seemed to be wearing a lab coat, and his voice was soft, as if he was coaxing a child to sleep.

"No problem, Bruno and Alan have an appointment."

Bruno's voice was slightly confused, but still full of energy.

"Everyone is very special, you may go through a lot in the future, but remember these three conventions, you will always be my favorite good boys."

The man known as Alan was silent for a moment before continuing to speak.

He spoke of three simple conventions that sounded a little inexplicable in the Foggy Mountains.

After a while, the camera nodded slightly.

"Bruno knows, Bruno will keep the agreement."

"Great."

Alan hugged the camera, and the hug lasted for a long time until the picture dimmed.

When the screen comes back on, the surrounding environment is less like an amusement park and more like a nearby forest.

"Bruno, it's sunshine."

Alan's voice came from one side, and the camera went down, and in the blurred picture, there were spots of light leaking through the cracks in the trees.

"Sunshine, warm, like."

Bruno reached out and tried to catch the sun, but he pounced.

A hand caught Bruno's shaggy round hand.

"Be careful."

Allen's voice rang out.

"Human hands, warm, like."

Bruno seemed to be happy.

Alan took him on a walk through the forest, taking him to identify the babbling streams, the mottled tree trunks, the soft earth, the scent of flowers and the breeze, and the blue sky.

"Bruno, you have to remember these feelings, although you may not understand them now, but one day, you will understand the meaning of these things."

Alan came up to Bruno and hugged him gently.

"The feeling of being embraced, loved."

Bruno's voice rang out.

The picture is plunged into darkness.
