Chapter 500
To understand what Gao Yi is looking for, we need to pull back the timeline and think about the various doubts in the previous copies.
The first thing to think about is where the mechanical dolls in these copies come from.
Yes, the original dolls, Freddy the Bear, Bonnie the Rabbit, Chica the Chicken and Fox the Pirate, are all victims of the disappearance case.
Their bodies were hidden in the dolls, and their souls were attached to the machinery and gears.
To be honest, this doesn't make sense.
Is there a clown murderer in the city sewer? Is there a company controlled by artificial intelligence and letting employees work 24 hours a day?
These copies cannot be understood by the logic of the ordinary world-although the real world is also a group of weirdos now...
But even so, even if the five original dolls are controlled by the souls of dead children.
What about the other dolls after that? The victims just happened to enter each mechanical doll?
You know, in 2023, the "first night", there were dozens of mechanical dolls in the store.
According to the news reports I saw before, most of the dead bodies near the restaurant were found, and it is impossible to hide them in dolls - not to mention that most dolls in the later period are not wearable.
Even if each mechanical doll corresponds to a dead person, the way it "comes to life" is obviously different from the first five dolls.
It should be a more convenient, easier to operate and process-oriented way.
Look at the glass jar in Gao Yi's hand. The "copy source material" used to wake up the doll and complete the main task is undoubtedly the culprit.
Of course, this does not mean that all "copy source materials" have the ability to give life to items.
You must know that the "copy source material" of each copy is different, and they are all the most core and key existence in the corresponding copy.
And for the current [Toy War] copy, it is naturally this blue substance that can give life to mechanical dolls.
Researching its specific composition can only be said to be completely beyond Gao Yi's knowledge level.
However, it can be confirmed that someone in this copy has created this blue substance in some way and brought many dolls back to life.
And this is the real reason why a large group of dolls exist in 2023.
So what is the purpose of making these living dolls, and who did it?
In fact, the answer is very simple.
There are only two people in the entire copy who have the ability and knowledge to make mechanical dolls, open restaurants and produce these "copy sources".
Since Chuck died in 1993, the only person who can continue to do these jobs in the next thirty years is naturally Stanley.
From this perspective, Lu Jinxi's reasoning is actually partly correct.
At least he successfully confirmed the important role of Stanley in the last thirty years.
But what Lu Jinxi did not realize is that the story in the first twenty years was also dominated by Stanley.
Yes, Chuck is not a good person either. He has been modifying mechanical dolls in various ways for a long time and trying to give them life-this is also his original goal when making dolls.
But objectively speaking, he does not need to be responsible for the dead-at least not the main responsibility.
Because almost all the victims died at the hands of Stanley.
The most direct question comes from the missing child case in 1972.
When Gao Yi first saw this case, he thought that the police were too incompetent.
Even if you can't find the body of the missing child, can't you find the murderer?
Please, the owner of the shop and the maker of the dolls are the same person. Who else could it be but Chuck?
But in fact, the reason why the police did not arrest Chuck is also very simple.
He had a very sufficient alibi at the time of the crime.
In fact, he was in the hospital at that time, welcoming the birth of his child.
This can also be confirmed from his diary.
The real murderer of the case was Stanley, who had not yet started a cooperative relationship with Chuck.
This Stanley obviously saw the potential of the mechanical dolls and chose a rather extreme way to stop the development of the restaurant and hit Chuck's career.
Then, he appeared in front of Chuck as a partner.
Adequate funds, understanding and enthusiasm for mechanical dolls soon made Stanley trust and join the restaurant.
The "Chuck and Stanley Family Restaurant" opened in 1987 was also established under such circumstances.
You want to ask if Chuck didn't find the bodies in the doll costumes during these fifteen years?
It should be impossible, but for his dream of making real dolls, a few dead children are obviously nothing.
In Chuck's diary, he recorded in detail the shock he felt when he entered the mobile circus as a child and saw the little bear doll walking in front of him.
He spent his whole life trying to reproduce the feeling at that time.
This made Chuck's development of mechanical dolls possible, and also made him Stanley's accomplice-although he didn't know it at the time.
And when Stanley joined the restaurant and the manufacture of mechanical dolls, he gradually showed his ambition.
A large number of deaths around him appeared at that time.
Stanley obviously discovered the abnormality of the first five dolls and became very interested in them.
In the days that followed, he committed a long series of murders and kidnappings.
In order to replicate the original situation as much as possible, most of the victims it chose were children - which was also the source of a large number of missing children and homicides.
Stanley attempts to extract a certain substance from the victim and put it into a doll.
It was not until 1987 that his work made substantial progress.
Some of the dolls have begun to take on life, and Stanley himself has become a "creator" to a certain extent.
But soon, this young man full of ambition and cruel ideas discovered that he was wrong.
The created doll has no real intelligence and does not obey his instructions.
Instead, these resentful thoughts drive the dolls to become extremely aggressive and search for their killers.
The "87 bite incident" that bit off a child's frontal lobe happened on this basis.
This also explains why Chuck's record states that he was so surprised and confused about this incident.
Because Chuck didn't lie, he really didn't know the reason why the mechanical dolls went crazy.
But after all, is Chuck really pure and innocent?
Of course it was impossible. As the maker of mechanical dolls, how could he not notice the strangeness behind it.
But by that time, Stanley had taken control of the situation, and Chuck could no longer look back.
This is not a confrontation between two powers, just one genius controlling another genius...
At this point in the story, it has become out of control.

It’s worth mentioning that the best book titles came out today.
The book title that killed all the competitors in the test was "Enter a Dungeon by Mistake and Become a Legendary Investigator."
It can be seen that everyone is very interested in the "Legendary Investigator"...
