Qi Zhen clearly remembers that this was the first time he had seen a non-blue uniformed staff member since he entered the road circus.

Does the red work uniform have any special meaning? Or is it just a difference in function?

"Good evening children, it's almost twelve o'clock in the morning, follow me into the car, once the bell rings at twelve o'clock, it will become very dangerous here!"

The red-uniformed staff bowed slightly, made a gesture of invitation to the "children", and behind him was a red ten-seater open-top coach.

And the style of dressing of this red-uniformed staff member is also very different from that of the blue uniform.

He wears a crisp suit with white leather shoes, but he wears a pair of inappropriate brown heart-shaped sunglasses on his face, which looks both funny and absurd.

"Where are you taking us?" A player asked with a fox on his face.

The staff in red uniforms smiled: "Of course, I will take you to the tent in the rest area for the night." ”

Another player questioned, "We came here from the rest area, why can't we go back the way we came?" ”

"Of course, you can, but after the performance, the night is foggy, and I think it's safer for the children to follow the tour bus." The staff in red uniforms smiled and said, "If you want to walk back by yourself, it's no problem, I'm just doing my duty, I hope you can understand." ”

Everyone look at me, I look at you, although there are doubts and concerns in their hearts, but after some consideration, they finally decided to get on this open-top tour bus that came to pick them up.

"I'd like to ask why we still look like children when we come out of the clown's tent? When will we be able to change back to what we were? Qin Rang sat in the first row of the tour bus and asked the red-uniformed staff who were starting the tour bus.

"Don't worry, it's normal," the Red uniformed staff explained, "because you've eaten the clown's dessert, at least until the dessert is completely metabolized before you can recover." ”

"Eh, how long will that take? Won't it affect the rest of the show? A player asked nervously.

The staff in red uniforms smiled and said, "Don't worry, kid, according to my experience, it will be back the next morning at the latest, even if it doesn't come back, it won't hinder it, and it won't affect the next performance." ”

"Unless something happens... For example, there are performances that children can't watch. He smiled meaningfully.

"A show that children can't see? Can you tell me what it is? Qin Rang continued to ask.

The red-uniformed staff was silent for a long time before lowering their voices and speaking mysteriously, "You know what? There are animal performances in the circus. ”

Hearing the words animal performance, Qi Jiu, who was also sitting in the first row, subconsciously leaned forward: "I know, our performance package has the program of "Wonderful Zoo". ”

The reason why Qi Yan is interested in animal shows is that there is no set menu for animal trainers on the menu of the circus restaurant.

In addition to the animal trainer package, it is clear that the other cast and crew packages are complete.

"yes, I don't understand why the circus has such a dangerous show, after all, the animals are wild and unruly." The red-uniformed staff shrugged.

It seems that the staff in red uniforms are dissatisfied with the circus' animal performances......

Qi Yan and Qin Rang glanced at each other, and Qi Yan seized the opportunity to ask: "Excuse me, is there no animal tamer in the circus?" ”

The red-uniformed staff looked at him, as if he had no intention of answering the question, and he continued to himself: "But it's a pity that these fierce and cruel beasts used to be cute and well-behaved..."

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the tourists sitting in the tour bus, "Just like you guys, cute and well-behaved." ”

The moment the red uniformed staff's voice fell, almost everyone immediately sensed that something was wrong.

"Just as cute and well-behaved as you are" -

Does it imply that these ferocious show animals were once tourists?

Players who are aware of this possibility do not feel a chill down their spine.

"By the way, do you know the legends? It's that the animals in the circus are all human......"

"I know, it's called animal husbandry, and our version is that human traffickers abduct children into circuses, poison them and make them dumb, and they can't speak, and then they burn off the children's skin with boiling water, and then apply a special potion, and the children's scalded skin will grow hair, like monkeys."

"I've heard urban legends that circus traffickers will tear off the skin of a trafficked child and put it on the fur of the animal, and the child will gradually grow into that animal......

"But, though, isn't there a rejection reaction?"

“…… It's all strange to talk about the world, why should you care about such scientific details? ”

"I've heard the opposite of the strange story, that the animals in the circus end up being caretakers and start taking revenge on humans."

“……”

The uneasy atmosphere quickly spread in the carriage, and everyone used their previous experience and imagination to process and amplify the information mentioned by the red uniformed staff, and a chilling sense of horror quickly enveloped everyone.

The red-uniformed staff seemed unconcerned about the discussion, and he kept a standard smile on his lips and continued to concentrate on driving his tour bus.

"Qi Jiu, what do you think?" Seeing Qi Yan's thoughtful look, Qin Rang hurriedly asked.

Before Qi Yan opened his mouth, he would not easily believe other people's inferences.

Qi Jiu's brows furrowed, and he said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "There is a high probability that the conversion between circus animals and tourists exists, but the transformation itself is just a phenomenon, and now we don't know the way, cause, purpose, and impact of the transformation, so it is not good for us to speculate, and we need more clues." ”

Qin Rang nodded as if he didn't understand: "In other words, for the time being, we can affirm that the identities of tourists and animals can be transformed, but we have to understand how the transformation works, why it is transformed, and the impact of transformation, right?" ”

Qi Zhen said: "You understand correctly. ”

Qin made this little young master more and more upright.

During the heated discussion among the players, Qi Yan also noticed that there were three prohibition icons pasted next to the helm of the open-top tour bus, and the small signs were very inconspicuous in the dimly lit and foggy night, and could only be found by tourists like Qi who chose to sit in the first row when they looked closely.

This is also the reason why Qi Yan chose to sit in the first row, and he also pulled Qin Rang, the European emperor, so that he could better find important clues.

The prohibitory sign depicts a green drink, a green cigarette, and a green piece of gum.

What all three icons have in common: they are all green.

So does it mean that green represents danger? This matched the anguish look on the cast and crew in the green tent on the flyer.

But is the so-called "danger" for everyone in the circus? Or is it just for the cast and crew?

Now there are not enough clues, and only fragmented clues can only infer appearances, and there is no way to find the truth hidden in the phenomena and rules, as well as the story line and logic line of the entire copy.

But there is no doubt that the green itself is a very important clue.

In addition, there is a reminder sign on the right side of the helm, and a small line of words is written on it-

"Animals are not allowed in this car, please do not bring your pet on the bus, thank you for your cooperation."

No animals allowed to ride? Is it forbidden for tourists who have been transformed into animals to ride on tour buses?

"Hello, excuse me," Qi Ji pointed to the prohibitory signs next to the helm and asked tentatively, "What kind of person would sell us these contraband?" I didn't see any food or cigarettes in the cafeteria and mobile vendors in the lounge area. ”

The red-uniformed staff was silent for a moment before replying ambiguously, "Dangerous guys with bad intentions. ”

"What kind of danger law?" Qi Yan asked reluctantly.

"Kid, you have too many questions." Through the rearview mirror, the red-uniformed staff glanced at Qi Yan.

Because he was wearing brown opaque love sunglasses, Qi Zhen couldn't see his gaze and expression clearly.

For the rest of the journey, the red-uniformed staff was so focused on driving his tour bus that he didn't speak.

The players continued to discuss the various animal legends they had learned, and the discussion became more and more intense.

About three minutes later, the rickety open-top tour bus made its way through the fog and finally reached the yellow tent cluster in the rest area.

This is a tent sign for tourists to rest at night, and Qi Ji looked up the coordinates on the map, and the staff in red uniforms did not lie to them.

"Dear children, we have arrived at the tent for tourists to rest, please get off the bus in an orderly manner and return to the tent to rest as soon as possible, but before that, ......"

The staff in red uniform held a note in his hand, turned to everyone and said mysteriously, "I like cute and polite children very much, and I don't want you to follow in the footsteps of your predecessors, so I have prepared a little hint for you, I hope you don't show the reminder information to other staff, otherwise I will be fired!" ”

The players who were about to get off the bus immediately cheered up for twelve points.

"Combined with the tips I gave you in the car just now, please read the content of the note carefully, there is only so much I can do," said the red-uniformed staff and handed the note to Qin Rang, "Cute children, please remember my words." ”

After the players got out of the car, the red uniform staff bowed to the young players again, "Good dreams." ”

After seeing the red open-top tour bus drive into the dense fog again, Qin Rang opened the note under the urging gaze of everyone.

The handwriting on the note is handwritten –

"Please don't trust the staff who are peddling food in the tent!"

"The staff who peddles food in the tent?" After everyone saw the content of the note, they all frowned, "In other words, will there be snack vendors entering our tourist tents tonight?" ”

"Since the staff just said so, there is a high probability that there will be."

"I'm curious what kind of food those vendors sell..."

"Actually, even if the staff doesn't remind me, I won't buy these weird snacks at night, it doesn't sound right."

At this time, a staff member had already come out of the tent, and he warmly greeted the tourists who had just survived the clown tent: "Welcome all children to the rest tent smoothly, I believe you still remember the content of Article 6 of the "Tourist Safety Instructions": the circus will stop all performances at 12 o'clock in the morning, and all tourists should return to the tent to rest before 12 o'clock." ”

"You are well-behaved tourists, and the circus staff will do their best to keep you safe."

The staff stood at the entrance of the tent, wearing a familiar blue work uniform, and his smile was also familiar to everyone.

"However, in order to ensure the safety and health of all visitors, I must distribute the Visitor Check-in Guide to everyone," the blue-uniformed staff smiled and looked at the crowd, "Please read this check-in guide carefully before resting, although the contents of the guide may make you wonder, please do not doubt that the circus staff is for your safety, please be in awe of it." ”

As he spoke, the staff in blue uniforms distributed the "Tourist Check-in Guide" to everyone one by one.

But when everyone saw the content of the guide, they all showed a confused expression-

Chapter 120: Highway Circus (14)

"Good evening, dear visitors, and welcome to the rest tent provided by the Road Circus, where you can spend a safe and enjoyable night, we have the following suggestions:

1. Please try not to laugh in the rest tent so as not to disturb the rest of other tourists and cast members;

2. The circus is covered with dense fog at night, please do not leave the rest tent easily, so as not to get lost in the dense fog, so that the ill-intentioned ████ and ████ have a chance to take advantage of you;

3. If you feel hungry at night, there will be staff selling snacks and drinks in the tent, the price is affordable, the food quality is guaranteed, you can absolutely trust, this is your best choice for eating at night;

4. Don't take ████'s word for it, remember!

The above is the advice of the road circus staff to you, and I hope you will follow it strictly, respect life, and ensure the safety of yourself and others."

Everyone looked at the third content of the "Tourist Check-in Guide" and fell silent for a moment.

This is the same as the note left by the staff in red uniforms: "Please don't trust the staff who peddle food in the tent!" Exactly contradictory.

The guide highly recommends buying drinks and snacks sold in the tent, but the staff in red uniforms say don't trust them, why?

Who is true and who is false, and who is lying?

A group of people entered the yellow rest tent with doubts, the space in the tent was not spacious, and it was arranged with the most basic living facilities like a youth hostel, and four bunk iron frame beds were placed, a total of eight beds, and there was just one free place for the seven of them.

Qi Zhen guessed that one of the players in their team was likely to "fall behind", so the bed was vacated.

Soon, the beds were divided.
