(A piece of paper picked by a visitor)

Leave away.......Live on........Leave away..........Live on!!!There isn’t rabbit blood...it’s...goat meat.Goat Park is...an elephant.Rabbits eat apes??? When in Ape Park,I can’t talk with staffs,can’t go out,can’t feed the apes,can’t enter when there is only one path.And I can’t enter the oceanarium when there is nobody.Only can goat meat be eaten.You can spend the night in the oceanarium,there is always opened.The first four white lions are apes...the fifth is...a goat!Rabbits are elephants...BLUE is BLACK!!!You are an ELEPHANT...And,I am a GOAT!!!

Notice inside the oceanarium

1.?Don’t enter the oceanarium when there is anybody.If any staff greet you when you are there,immediately leave by some excuse after seeing this article.

2.?If you don’t see any staff when seeing this article,you can visit and stay there.We provide food,it’s all for free,you can take some yourself,but don’t eat goat meat.If you see it on the shelf,ignore it.

3.?If you enter before 16:00, stay there for no more than half an hour.

4.?If you enter after 16:01,stay there for no less than 4 hours.

5.?It’s an oceanarium,and there is only marine creatures.If you see an elephant swimming in the whale area,do hush up and don’t shout.That’s a 3D projection put out of fun.Take it easy and pretend it is just a whale.

6.?You can spend the night in the oceanarium,on the left of the jellyfish area,there are bedrooms provided for visitors and tramps.If you have a rest there,please turn off the jellyfish-shaped light in the room before sleeping.

7.?Our staffs wear red uniforms(REDERS),and sweep and check the oceanarium after 0:30 every day.If you meet a BLACKER saying he is a staff there,you can talk with him,also you can trust him as a temporary guide,but don’t give your map to him,especially the piece torn off along the dotted line.

8.?If you violate the articles above,you must be responsible for your safety problems.

9.?The oceanarium does exist and we don’t serve any organization.

Oceanarium Staff Regulations

1.?The oceanarium is closed during the daytime,you should go to work from 0:30 to 6:00,you can come late and leave early,but never come early or leave late.

2.?The bedrooms on the left of the jellyfish area is provided for tramps and visitors.When you are working,check if they turn off the jellyfish-shaped lights before 1:00,if not,remind them to turn it off,and you can even force them.Anyway,don’t let the lights remain on after 1:15.

3.?The ‘dead elephant’?in the whale area is a developing 3D projection technique.Try not to notice how lifelike it is,just ignore it,and don’t be curious to find the position of the switch,there is no need to turn it off.

4.?The monitors are broken and hard to get repaired,so patrol around once an hour.The electricity may suddenly be cut off and you usually hear unidentified noise,that’s all commonplace,and you don’t worry about fishes’?safety.If you feel scared,you can stay in the jellyfish area,there is a complete power supply and the electricity won’t be cut off.

5.?It’s also commonplace that the visitors hold a zoo map.Don’t answer any question about “where is the oceanarium ’s position in the zoo”. If the visitor sticks to questioning,leave right away.

6.?Before ending your work on Sundays,remember to charge the jellyfish-shaped lights,anyway,don’t forget.

7.?Change the food on the shelves every day.If you find strange food that tagged “goat meat”?,please put it in the storage box in the whale area,

then someone will help you to deal with it.

8.?During your work shift you can take a walk anywhere,but don’t leave the oceanarium.If some visitors try to leave before 6:00,prevent them as possible.Needless to fight with them or follow them to leave if you can’t prevent,you’d just keep on your work.

9.?If a visitor wears an uniform that is similar to yours but black,refuse them to stay here.Use tough methods to drive them away.There are shock rods and anaesthetic guns put on the working stand in the Jellyfish Area.

10.?If a visitor brings a rabbit doll,steal it when he falls asleep and put it in the storage box in the Whale Area.We’re sure that the visitor wouldn’t?suspect you after his sleep.

11.?If a visitor wants to talk with you, you can do as long as you remember to turn off the lights in time.And don’t mention anything about the zoo,if he does,change the topic rapidly.

12.?We run the oceanarium independently and there aren’t any zoos,do remember it.

(A Piece of Note Stuck in the Security Room by a Staff Worked in Elephant Area 3 Years Ago)

??Someone that shifts with me,comes here by chance or comes newly to see the note afterwards,hello.In your work shift please do as the note requires.It’s my precious experience helps keep safe and a clear mind.

I don’t want to lose any associates and don’t want to experience anything strange,I believe so don’t you.After reading these tips,please pretend not to read and keep on what you are doing.

??Keep the color of your clothes in mind,it can be red blue or black. Don’t change it.Keeping your self-cognition tough is very essential.Don’t let “it”?find that you are cognate the surroundings fearfully.

??Believe,believe,do believe.Human beings are worth trusting,only they are.

??Rabbits eat us,but people with rabbit earrings don’t.Shades eat us,but people who trim it don’t.Elephants eat us,but people who visit them don’t and so do who don’t visit them.White lions eat us,but glowing jellyfish don’t.

? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Since they don’t have brains?

??When being prevented “it”?cries,when getting something “it”?laughs.

Never mind what “it”?is,keep away from “it”?when finding “it”,they haven’t known yet.

??It’s all probing that the food that appears on the shelves somehow.

Don’t look at the sign on the packages of the food and never mind how others call it.Ignore instead and pretend it to be common food and eat if necessary.And don’t let “it”?know that you have already sensed “it”.

Zoo Administrator’s Regulations File

(Put on the Desk)

1.?Accept every one of your staff,no matter what color of their clothes is. Although we only serve blue uniforms,but if someone is wearing one that is of the same style but black or red,make no exception and see him as a staff.

2.?It’s normal phenomenon that there is crying or laughter of a child?when there is nobody.Ignore and pretend not to hear that,don’t act your fear or annoyance out.

3.?Don’t allow staffs to bring?pets?into the zoo,if someone sticks to violating this article,needless to fine,just ask them to be responsible for it.

4.?Check the amount of white lions every three days and record the frequency of the changes of it,then put it into a table named “it”?in the PC Folder.Never mind what “it”?means.Don’t rename this table or talk about this table with others including your family.

5.?There must be a part that can be teared off along the dotted line?on every map,and the maps must be produced by a certain factory.You can find out how to contact them in a Word file in the folder.At least 3 maps?should be kept in the office to be used anytime.

6.?No matter how often staffs in Elephant Park retire and how high they want their profit to be.Be friendly to them and satisfy their demand as possible.They aren’t making trouble out of nothing.But never look for the reason why they are demanding like this.

7.?If you see some staffs catching running rabbits?or picking up dry jellyfish?or?rabbits bitten to death by white lions?when you check staffs’?work is a normal phenomenon.You don’t need to blame or question them,but make sure they have dealt with it properly indeed.

8.?You must?keep lights onin your office from 1:15AM to 6:00AM even if there is nobody.The power supply equipment is stronger than any other parks in the zoo,power cut is an abnormal phenomenon,if so,tear off the map prepared on the right side of the desk along the dotted line,take the piece and go out.Tell the first staff?you meet about this problem,no matter what color his clothes is or what he is ready to do.Ask him to help deal with the power cut,he won’t refuse you.

9.?Don’t stick to the problem?whether the oceanarium exists.But if you see it,you can enter and take a walk.If you are outside of the oceanarium, please obey the notice on the gate,if you are inside,please obey the one inside.If there are differences between the two,which you should obey depends on your position?when you see the notice.

10.?There are only ape dolls and white lion dolls put on the sofa in the office.When goat/rabbit/elephant?dolls appear,there is no need to work indoors that day.Leave away until the staff in the monitor room tells you that the extra dolls have disappeared.

11.?You can sleep at noon,but if you decide to be on a night shift.Try anything to keep a clear mind and don’t let yourself sleepy.If you don’t have confidence to do things in last sentence,don’t be on a night shift.

12.?Sometimes the monitor is broken,please check if there is animal fur to judge if it is broken.If there is,don’t repair it until 1 month later,you can use tiny cameras to take its place if necessary.After telling this problem,the finance sector will reimburse the cost of them.

13.It’s commonplace that there are some dry jellyfish?in the dustbin sometimes,just remind the cleaners of it when they pour the rubbish into the bin.

14.If you violate any article above,pretend nothing happens and spend 13 hours in the office,you can order takeout food and ask a staff to bring it to you.Don’t leave the office,don’t face up to the takeout-sender or staffs,and don’t look at the mirror.Always remind yourself: Each human being has and only has 2 eyes.

15.Never forget:humans’?life security is more valuable than animals’.Give up any animal if necessary.Don’t make your heart too soft and you don’t know whether they are animals.

[A piece of note left in a left-hand room in the jellyfish area in the oceanarium(put by a staff in the drawer in the whale area)]

I’m so scared...I...I want to leave alive...do not believe,uh...do believe!Oh what the ****?Uh...Let me take a note.And I’ll never leave away unless following these tips.

Apes and white lions can see “it”,jellyfish and rabbits can comfort “it”,elephants and goats are “its”?dolls.

Believe in white lions.They bite people who can be saved,they bite people who can’t.Their roaring is the alarm to drive “it”?away,their roaring is a sad song to mourn the dead.

You’ll be found when changing your clothes,don’t do that!

Unity,courage,and determined loyalty,are the biggest value of us human beings!

The security staffs in the Elephant Park can be trusted,but they go off work at 1AM every day,please ask for help before that.

“It”?likes light,especially in the evening. “It”hates airtight spaces,you should have a rest in a dark and airtight room.

Oh...my god,the goat meat is really raw meat,but it can be f**king eaten!

When standing by an ape you can’t be found.

Each human being has 2 eyes,and arranges on the left and right,lie on both side of the nose.None of the rest ones are humans.When one’s appearance changes,it means he is being stared at by “it”.Please believe in humans,don’t believe in pretend humans!

Don’t respond to visitors who are visiting with laughter,they have found nothing.

Look for visitors as scared as me,they are believable,they have found everything.

Thanks dry jellyfish and drowned elephants,remember that they have devoted their life to protecting humans to death.

There is an exit indeed,but not in the Ape Park,I don’t know what there is at the end of the right path.

Always remember that you are a human,not an animal.
