Pretending to be a Ghost
Ma, who'd been following Mengyao and Yushu from afar, heard their conversation as well.
Naturally, Lin Yi had noticed Ma coming, but didn't want to startle him. As far as he was concerned, Ma wasn't much of a threat at all. Might as well let him tag along and see what he was up to. Who knew, he might even be able to lure out the mastermind.
He was just a small character, and Lin Yi killing him wouldn't affect the mastermind at all. The guy wasn't even a third of a golden class, he was just an errand boy.
"Yuchu Bro, it sounds like they're going to the haunted house …" Ma's mission was to report Mengyao and the others' movements to Maosheng and Zhang Yuchu.
"Haunted house? I got it. "Yuchu said." I'll discuss it with Jin Bro, I'll tell you what to do. "
Maosheng had heard Ma's words through the walkie-talkie as well, but he hadn't figured out what kind of accident he could create in the haunted house yet. Assassinations were out of the question, and that would only draw the police in faster. That wasn't something he wanted to see.
"Get Ma to go to the ticket counter first, tell them to slow down the sales! Don't let Mengyao and the others go in immediately! "Maosheng said after some thought.
"Alright." Yuchu relayed Maosheng's message to Ma. "Jin Bro, what should we do now?"
"What kind of accident do you think could kill people in a haunted house?" Maosheng decided to discuss it with Yuchu.
"Um … Inside the haunted house …" Yuchu couldn't think of any good ideas. "There's nothing else in the haunted house other than scaring people … It's all fake stuff!"
"Scaring people …" Maosheng cackled all of a sudden. "I got it, heh heh. Let's go pretend to be ghosts and scare them to death, what do you think?"
"That's a good idea. The things in there are all dead. Although it's scary, it's nothing. But if we pretend to be ghosts and shout their names, they will probably … Hehe …" Yuchu nodded in agreement. "Isn't there a saying that goes, 'Don't you remember? It was so scary that it scared people to death! That's what it means! "
"Let's go. Let's go get ready. Don't scare those two girls to death!" Maosheng smiled darkly- he'd only been suggesting it casually, but Yuchu's approval had moved him! That's right. Scaring people, scaring people to death. This is an old saying. It shouldn't be wrong.
"Why does this haunted house only let three or four people in at a time?" Mengyao looked at the entrance of the haunted house impatiently. There were still three or four groups of people waiting in front of her. Who knew how long it would take for them to get there! If he had known earlier, he would have asked Faubert to come and give him a heads-up, saving him from having to wait for so long!
"Isn't it too late for a good show?" Yushu, on the other hand, didn't mind. "You know what, Yao Yao? The two couples who went in just now were pale with fright!"
"You'll be like that too!" Mengyao said, annoyed. "Why don't we stop playing and go watch something else?"
"Let's wait a little longer. It'll be our turn in another two or three groups!" Yushu didn't want to give up just like that. "Yao Yao, think about it, it's scarier when there's only a few people in the haunted house! What's the point if there's too many visitors? If there's too many people and too few ghosts, then are the ghosts scaring the people or the people scaring the ghosts? There's no point in that. "
"That's true …" Mengyao was starting to agree with Yushu's reasoning. Indeed, if there were too many people, then there'd be no time for ghosts.
In the control room at the back of the haunted house, Maosheng, Zhang Yuzhou, and Ma had all changed into their costumes. Maosheng was a vampire, Zhang Yuzhou was a zombie, and Ma was a faceless man with something stuck to his face!
"Get ready, call the people in front. They don't need to come in, just tell Mengyao to come in directly!" Yuchu said to Ma.
"Yes …" Ma was already a faceless man, and his speech was a little sluggish. He took out his phone and dialed a number. "You guys can go now!"
Outside the haunted house, the two groups of people waiting in front of Mengyao's group suddenly spoke up after receiving a call. "We're not waiting anymore, it's too slow. Let's go and play something else!"
"Yeah, it's so slow. I don't want to watch anymore. Let's go!" Another person immediately echoed.
And so, the two groups of people turned around and left without any hesitation.
"Eh? Yao Yao, is there something wrong with them? They've been waiting in line for so long, it's almost their turn, and they're leaving? "Yushu looked at the two groups of people as if they were idiots.
"Who knows? But it's good that they're leaving, it'll be our turn soon! "Mengyao was a little troubled as well, but it was a good thing that they were leaving. They didn't have to wait anymore.
Lin Yi, on the other hand, looked at the two groups of people coldly, a cold smile on his lips. Making a move already? Inside the Haunted House?
"Next …" The worker opened the door and looked at Mengyao's group. "Is that you guys? Are the three of you together? "
"Yes, is it our turn?" Mengyao asked.
"We're here. Give me the tickets and you can go in." The staff took the ticket from Mengyao's hand and threw it into the box without even looking at it, making Lin Yi look down on them. They didn't even know how to put on an act, were they in such a hurry to get them in?
Mengyao, Yushu, and Lin Yi entered the haunted house one after another, and the door slammed shut behind them. "Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Mengyao couldn't help but shiver. She knew it was fake, but the creepy atmosphere in the haunted house still made her shiver.
"Shu, hold onto me. Don't run around! It's pretty scary in here! " Mengyao tried to maintain the demeanor of a big sister, but there was a hint of fear in her voice. She wanted Yushu to hold onto her so that Yushu wouldn't be afraid, but anyone could tell that Mengyao was just putting on a brave front.
"Hehe, Yao Yao, are you scared?" Yushu wasn't a coward. She wasn't scared even after hearing the screams.
"Who said I'm scared?" Mengyao wouldn't admit that she was scared, "These things are fake, they're just scaring people, what's there to be scared of? Let's go! Lin Yi, follow behind us, don't go too far! "
