Rules of the Strange: Starting with the Weird Peppa Pig

He walked quickly forward following the dinosaur's instructions, the footsteps behind him following his rhythm.

He felt a chill run down his spine, wondering when these freaks would rush up and beat him up, so Wuyin quickened his pace.

He followed the dinosaur's directions, turning left and right, and then went up another hillside before seeing the kindergarten gate.

The fog beside them had dissipated, and Wuyin saw a pink figure from behind.

He stared warily at the red figure. The fog had now dissipated, and he could make a sound.

Wuyin tentatively called out.

"Patty?"

The red-clad figure in front of me turned to the side, looking somewhat angry.

"George, why are you so slow? We're going to be late. Hurry up and go inside."

When Wuyin saw that familiar pig face, she didn't think it was so ugly, and even felt a little bit of warmth towards it.

"Ok."

The two went to the kindergarten together.

When he reached the classroom door, he saw a school rule posted on the wall.

1. No lateness allowed.

2. No noise is allowed during class.

3. Students are not allowed to leave their seats during class.

4. There are only 6 students in the class.

5. If you have any questions, you can seek help from Mrs. Antelope, but Mrs. Antelope's eyes are blue, not red, so please don't mistake her for your teacher.

Chapter 9 Blue Mist

There were only five rules, and Wuyin quickly memorized them.

The first three rules are normal rules that schools should have, but they are a bit too strict for kindergartens.

The last two rules require special attention.

Upon entering the classroom, Wuyin first noticed Mrs. Antelope's eyes; they were blue.

"Is everyone here? Please sit down and be quiet. We're about to start our first lesson."

Mrs. Antelope, with a smile and a kind voice, soothed the little animals in the kindergarten.

But strangely, all the little animals seemed to have no sparkle in their eyes, mechanically finding their places and sitting neatly in rows.

Paige sat in the corner of the last row, and Wuyin sat next to her.

At that moment, he silently counted the number of students in the class.

"1, 2, 3... 6, plus me, that's... 7!"

Wuyin lowered her eyes and silently counted again in her mind.

"There are indeed seven. So who is the extra one?"

Silently lost in thought, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, as if someone was staring at his back.

He turned his head slightly and glanced back out of the corner of his eye, a glance that made him break out in a cold sweat.

At the very back corner of the classroom, a student was sitting there.

But he seemed to be sitting with his back to the podium, and his figure was somewhat blurry, like a wisp of blue mist.

Therefore, there are not 7 students in this classroom, but 8.

Wuyin was in class and couldn't make any noise or leave his seat, so he decided to investigate after class.

But the feeling of being stared at grew stronger, and he felt something was wrong; he felt cold all over.

When he glanced behind him again out of the corner of his eye, the blue mist, along with the tables and chairs, appeared very close behind him.

The table touched his back, and the closer the mist got to him, the colder he felt.

But the others seemed oblivious to the presence of the blue mist and continued to attend class attentively.

The blue mist vaporized into a sharp claw, gradually approaching Wuyin's neck.

Wuyin couldn't just sit and wait to die. His hand explored the hole in the table and he just happened to touch a ballpoint pen.

He tried to hook the pen with his little finger, quietly moved it behind him, then held his breath and suddenly plunged towards the direction of the blue mist.

The mist dispersed as if startled, and the set of tables and chairs that had been there disappeared.

The chill on his neck lessened considerably.

Just as Wuyin was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she noticed that Mrs. Antelope on the podium had stopped lecturing.

"George, what are you doing?"

Wuyin placed the ballpoint pen on the back half of the stool, raised her hand, and pretended to be relaxed.

"mosquito."

Lady Antelope's eyes had turned red at some point, and she stared intently at Wuyin as she quickly walked to his side in her high heels.

"Da da da……"

The school rules state that Mrs. Antelope's eyes are blue, but the Mrs. Antelope before me has eyes that are red as if they are about to bleed, exuding an extremely dangerous aura.

Wuyin was already in a fighting stance when a voice sounded beside him.

Paige stood up and smiled at Mrs. Antelope.

"Teacher, I'm sorry, this is my younger brother George. He may be having some trouble adjusting. I'll talk to him about it when we get back."

"Really? Okay, then you know what I'll do. Come to my office after class."

Mrs. Antelope looked angry, but seemed unwilling to get entangled with Paige.

"Okay, teacher, I will."

After answering, Paige sat down quietly again.

Wuyin was also somewhat surprised that the strange Peppa Pig had actually saved him.

Mrs. Antelope walked back to the podium, glanced at Wuyin, and then continued her eloquent speech.

But what she was talking about was not the kind of knowledge that kindergarten children should learn.

"The great Creator created us; He took away our bodies but gave us incomparable souls."

"We must find the traitor! The traitor will destroy all this perfection..."

As she spoke, Mrs. Antelope turned around, picked up a piece of chalk, and drew a portrait of the Creator on the blackboard.

Wuyin was pondering what that blue mist was when he suddenly felt a gaze upon him again, this time from a seat in front of him.

He lowered his eyes slightly, pretending to be flipping through a book, but actually looking at his shadow on the ground.

But strangely, all the shadows have their heads facing straight ahead, with no side profiles projected.

The classroom fell silent, with only the scratching of chalk remaining.

No... something must have been missed.

Wuyin carefully observed the shadows on the ground and noticed that one rabbit-shaped shadow was darker and more blurred than the others.

This shows that...

He turned his head 180 degrees to look at him.

Just then, the bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class.

Wuyin raised her head, and the feeling of being stared at her disappeared. All the small animals were sitting properly.

He looked at the blackboard and discovered that the so-called image of the creator was just a bunch of messy, crooked lines.

Paige stood up and followed Mrs. Antelope out of the classroom.

There were only Mrs. Antelope and Paige in the office.

“Patty, I think you know in your heart that that’s not George.”

Mrs. Antelope found a stool and sat down, her expression becoming increasingly contorted as she could no longer control herself.

Paige remembered the vegetables arranged like a dinosaur, and her expression became somewhat unnatural.

“George might not be dead. What if he really comes back one day? You know he's my brother, and I miss him terribly.”

Lady Antelope's lips curled into a strange arc as she sneered.

“The real George is long dead; he couldn’t have survived under those circumstances.”

“You’re really stupid to mistake the ‘traitor’ for him. I think you should know what kind of punishment you’ll get for protecting the ‘traitor’.”

Paige nodded, her four-eyed face expressionless.

"Yes, teacher, I know."

"Alright, then go and accept your punishment."

In the classroom, Wuyin stood up while holding a dinosaur doll and walked over to the rabbit.

It's Richard the Rabbit. In the original story, he's about the same age as George, and the two are good friends.

But now it seems that after he became a monster, he is no longer the silly and cute little kid who could only hop like a rabbit.

Richard turned his head to look at him, a strange smile curving his lips.

Should I call you smart, or should I call you stupid?

Wuyin coldly watched Richard.

"why."

He wasn't sure when Paige would be back, so he made sure that everything he said was something he could say.

Richard stood up with a smile.

"I really didn't expect Paige to speak up for you, but do you know what the consequences of her doing this are?"
