Dressed in all black, boss, her vest can’t cover it up

After entering the performance tent, Lin Qingqing saw the clown on the ticket card.

Not a clown mask, but a "real" clown wearing a colorful wig, makeup, and a loose clown costume.

The clown held a square box in his arms, and was jumping away with a smile on his face.

This was what Lin Qingqing saw when she first came in.

She walked in front, and the clown walked so fast that they almost bumped into each other at the entrance of the tent.

However, although he did not hit the "real" clown, he still fell to the ground very comically, then got up on his own with a smile, greeted Lin Qingqing and others, and left the tent.

No matter how you look at it, "real" clowns should be what clowns should look like. In comparison, "fake" clowns wearing masks are more like the dangerous kind.

Under the guidance of the masked clown, Lin Qingqing walked to the viewing area with doubts.

A variety of drinks and snacks are placed at the edge of the viewing area. Each snack has a label with the name of the snack on the label.

Lin Qingqing didn't eat, but Ye Xiaolu felt like she couldn't walk when she saw these desserts. She had to try a little of each dessert.

The masked clown led eight people to eight empty seats and made the "please" gesture again.

The eight seats are in the best viewing area. They are located in two rows, four in the front and four in the back. The eight guests can sit in groups of two and two, which is very suitable.

The empty seats were surrounded by noisy guests, the lights were flashing, people were buzzing, and it was a bustle.

The time had reached 6:24, Lin Qingqing sat down in the back row, and Fu Shiqing sat next to her.

Ye Xiaolu and Gu Yan also sat in the back row, and the remaining two groups sat in the front row.

The show begins.

The first program was Russian dance. Actresses from Russia stood in the middle of the stage and danced in front of a huge curtain formed by lights and light.

The music that suited the atmosphere quickly attracted everyone's attention to the stage.

[Watching a variety show, you can actually see the circus live, you make a lot of money]

[Why is the deer girl still eating the goose? Is your stomach a bottomless pit?]

[Qingqing’s makeup is so beautiful today, and the shot under the light just now is amazing, I want it to be my wallpaper]

[Look, Sister Qing is not watching the show. What is she looking for? 】

Lin Qingqing did not forget that she came to the circus this time not to watch any performance, but to find the Orange Medal.

If the previous analysis is correct, the orange medal should represent the sun god Apollo, and what Apollo gave Pandora was "a singing voice as sweet as a nightingale."

Something related to the circus and Apollo... Lin Qingqing thought about the program for a long time, and only thought of jumping through the fire hoop.

It is worth noting that there is a hidden program at the end of the program list.

Most likely, the Orange Medal has something to do with hidden programming.

After reading the program list again, Lin Qingqing discovered a very interesting point.

Program Rules Article 6.

【6. If you do not return to your seat within one minute and see the lion in the corner staring at you, don’t panic, immediately take two magician five-pointed stars from the self-service area and return within one minute. Your seat. 】

It can be seen that there should be a lion in the corner of this tent.

Lin Qingqing looked around and finally found the lion among the crowd at the back.

It's just that this lion is surprisingly small. At this time, it is sitting in a soft seat in the corner in a strange posture. It does not look threatening.

"Stop looking." Fu Shiqing suddenly whispered, "That's not a lion." Lin Qingqing felt a chill on her back and her pupils suddenly dilated.

Viewed from the side, the lion's three-dimensional facial features appear much flatter, and its hind limbs are obviously longer than its forelimbs. If you look closely, you will see that the lion's tail hangs limply, lifeless and motionless.

If you look closely, you can see that the lion's forelimbs even have five branches... What kind of lion is this?

This is a person!

The lion seemed to have noticed Lin Qingqing. He turned his head, met Lin Qingqing's gaze, and bared his teeth in a strange smile.

Maybe the picture itself is not scary, but being in the environment, so close, and looking at each other makes it feel like a hunter and an unknown prey are locked in a stalemate.

Arranging such irrationality in everything that makes sense, the circus setting seems to be dancing on the uncanny valley effect.

Lin Qingqing's scalp felt numb for a while, she turned her head back and stared hard at the Russian actress dancing on the stage.

Because of fear, the smile just now lingered in her mind, so that when she saw the actresses on the stage, Lin Qingqing subconsciously felt that those were lions.

"What's wrong, Sister Qingqing? Are you okay?"

Ye Xiaolu sat next to Lin Qingqing, and was very keenly aware that something was wrong with Lin Qingqing. She handed over the small plate in her hand, "Sister Qingqing, why are you looking so pale? Is it because of low blood sugar? Why don't you eat some of this?"

There was a small piece of ice cream cake on the plate. Lin Qingqing thanked her and ate it.

The cold cake fell into his stomach, suppressing the discomfort.

"Sister Qingqing, did you see something just now?" Ye Xiaolu said, looking back.

The lion dressed as a man was still staring in the direction of Lin Qingqing. Ye Xiaolu turned around now, and the same scene as before was waiting for her.

[Little Deer Girl Goose, don’t look back! 】

[It scares me to death. What is that? Can the show crew stop making trouble? Have you forgotten that this is a romance drama? 】

[It’s okay if it doesn’t smile. This smile makes my skin crawl.]

[Little deer, don’t look back, you will be frightened and cry]

The lion also noticed Ye Xiaolu, who was looking back. He leaned out half of his body from the cushion, opened his eyes, and made an even more horrifying expression than before.

"Don't look!" Lin Qingqing covered Ye Xiaolu's eyes in time.

Ye Xiaolu was very obedient. When Lin Qingqing said don't look, she turned her head back obediently and asked Lin Qingqing curiously, "Sister Qingqing, what's behind you?"

"People." Lin Qingqing said simply.

Ye Xiaolu seemed to understand but didn't ask any more questions or look back.

Gu Yan looked back and after a moment, looked at Lin Qingqing.

When did this girl become so brave? Gu Yan clearly remembered that in the escape room variety show not long ago, Lin Qingqing was so frightened that she did not dare to open her eyes.

She closed her eyes the whole way and let Qiao Yu pull her out.

It is precisely because of this that during that time, her Weibo posts were full of curses.

At this moment, Lin Qingqing and Fu Shiqing were sitting together and did not notice Gu Yan's gaze at all.

The lights and music on the stage seemed to be in a different world from Lin Qingqing. Her eyes were cold, staring closely at the program in her hand.

"Look, there are also bears, puppies, and beautiful women turning into tigers on the program list."

"Aren't they all dressed up as people?"
