Chapter 153 How can a doll and a ghost be combined!

What kind of genius can combine two completely different elements, dolls and ghosts!

And nursery rhymes!

How can such a cute element be tied together with horror!

It’s simply unreasonable!

Theodore felt that he had to call his parents or the servants and ask them to come to his room to deal with the doll, otherwise he would not dare to move tonight.

"Theodore, do you know what a stupid request you made to me? What on earth did you go through when you went to China to make you become like this?"

Theodore's mother expressed great incomprehension, saying that her incomprehension had been accumulating for a long time.

Ever since Theodore came back from a trip to China a few months ago, he has been a little suspicious.

Ms. Gracie originally thought her little son was frightened by the ogre.

The news that the cannibal was arrested for entering China caused a huge sensation in the United States. After all, the local police had been trying to catch him for so many years without success, and had even been provoked many times. Unexpectedly, he was arrested as soon as he got off the plane when he arrived in China.

The devil didn't even have time to do anything.

Now not only the U.S. police are unable to sit still, but residents from all over the country are also shocked. In addition, they express suspicion and anger towards the national police.

It would be fine if China couldn't catch the person either, because that would mean it wasn't the police's problem, but that the devil was too cunning.

However, the big devil who acted recklessly in the United States was immediately arrested as soon as he arrived in China, even though the strength of all parties was not as good as that of his own country, which was rumored to be extremely backward.

What does this show? Either the other country is stronger than our own country, or our own country does not care about the safety of its people at all.

It's all bullshit to say that the other party is too cunning, too smart, and too resourceful. How could he be caught as soon as he got off the plane? You surrounded him from all sides and he still managed to slip away.

There were even local police stations whose windows were smashed to show the public's anger.

Gracie also saw the news of the devil's arrest in the newspaper. Because the time and place of landing coincided with Theodore's, she called to ask.

When she found out her son and the ogre got off the same plane, she almost fainted.

After Theodore returned home, she always felt that his behavior was a little strange, as if he had changed a lot.

In the past, he would go out to play as soon as he got home, or have a few parties with some friends, but this time when he came back, he stayed in his room all the time and did not go out except at meal times.

It's like he's become a completely different person.

Gracie originally thought that he was frightened and wanted to ask something, but she was afraid of touching on Theodore's fear and making him feel more psychologically burdened.

But today, she really couldn't bear it anymore.

I watched as the housekeeper asked people to move all the doll-related things in the room away and put them in another room. Some of them were even models of basketball stars that Theodore liked, which were also taken away.

Her son hid in the bed, as if he would not come out until the move was completed.

Theodore met his mother's gaze and smiled awkwardly, "Mom, don't you think these dolls are scary?"

Gracie's expression became even more strange. "They have been in your room for so long, and you find them scary now?"

"Honey, what's wrong with you? Is there anything you can't tell your mother? Maybe I should call a psychiatrist for you?"

Theodore kept saying no, "I know you think I'm weird because of my big change, but I'm really fine mentally. I was just reading a novel. You see, it's a Chinese horror novel, it's a little scary... I'm a little scared."

Gracie was even more confused. "Chinese novels? I don't understand. What's so good about them? If you want to read novels, why not read novels from our own country? There are several writers who write very well. Do you need me to recommend them to you?"

"The descriptions of China are always difficult to understand and not interesting to read."

Theodore disagreed: "Mom, if you saw it, you would never say such a thing. Good things know no borders."

"I also plan to use my company to sign the overseas copyright of this book, and my translator friend will cooperate with me."

"But if you are curious, you can get a sneak peek of the translated draft from me now."

When Theodore talked about this author's novels, he really had endless things to say, from her brilliant imagination, to her writing style, to the characters and worldview she created.

After reading the updates every day, he would chat with his translator friend about the contents of the novel, but the other party was very busy, and due to the time difference between China and abroad, the two often talked at different times.

Theodore couldn't stand the loneliness, so he often climbed over the wall to enter the Chinese software forum.

The Chinese I learned from the novel came in handy. Even though I still stumble a bit, at least I was able to have a few conversations with Chinese readers on the forum, which also helped my Chinese learning.

Theodore had long wanted to bring the novel to his own country. His strong desire to share could not be fulfilled in his own country, and he was eager to open the eyes of those people in his country who had never seen good things.

Compared with Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs, the novels written by authors in their country are at least a hundred years behind the times.

It's not that he is pro-Chinese.

He just prefers to tell the truth.

All the things that needed to be moved out of the room had been moved out, and with one more person, Theodore's fear of catching up was reduced a little, and he crawled out of the bed.

Gracie said disapprovingly: "Come on, kid, just enjoy yourself and don't show it to me. I'm not very interested in Chinese things."

"Wait, mom, just take a look. If nothing else, help me see how she translated it."

"I'm used to it, and I really can't find any mistakes. If you haven't read it, please help me find the parts where I can't understand the language. You've read so many good books, you must know more about these than me."

Theodore took Gracie to the computer and opened the document.

Gracie has always been fond of Theodore and usually would not refuse his requests.

She pulled her reading glasses out of her pocket, put them on her nose, and leaned closer to the computer screen.

Theodore showed Gracie the book "Grandma".

When reading, the room is quiet.

Theodore wanted to speak, but for some reason, every time he started watching "Grandmaster" until the end, he could not open his mouth. He was oppressed by the atmosphere. He always felt that as soon as he opened his mouth, he would lose his temper and it would trigger some kind of ghost attack switch.

As long as you hold your breath and watch to the end, and then let go in one go, you can be considered to have escaped.

It's just like every time I finish watching a horror movie and run back to my room from a place some distance away, I always feel that if I stop or take a breath, I will be caught by the ghost behind me.

Gracie scratched the back of her hand, "Ahem, the temperature in this room seems a little low."
