"The door has been opened?"
Chen Ge's hand froze in midair. The weirdest thing was that the door in the mirror had opened at the same angle as the cubicle door in the bathroom.
Removing the black cloth, Chen Ge walked to the cubicle. He turned to look at the mirror and reached out to pull the cubicle door open.
In the real world, there was nothing inside the cubicle, but the image reflected in the mirror was completely different. The narrow cubicle was a sea of red, and the walls and floor appeared to be oozing blood. It was like it was a different world.
Chen Ge still did not have the courage to enter the cubicle to investigate. He gripped the door and considered whether he should remove it or not.
After about ten seconds, Chen Ge heard a strange sound. It came closer and closer, like someone was crawling on the ground in wet clothes.
"Where is it coming from?" The sound became clearer, and it got closer and closer to Chen Ge.
He glanced down the corridor and then back at the mirror. In the end, he confirmed that the sound came from inside the cubicle.
"Something's coming?" Now was not the time to be curious. Chen Ge closed the cubicle door. He used the mop to block the lock and turned to look at the mirror.
The sound that sounded like a dead body entered the cubicle. Soon, blood leaked out from the gap of the door. The thing seemed to be looking for something, and a thick stench permeated the air.
Several seconds later, the sound faded away, and the stench in the air slowly dissipated.
One minute later, the cubicle door in the mirror returned to normal, and the room became much brighter.
Leaning against the cubicle door, Chen Ge's palms were sweating. If he had not woken up, the thing that was crawling on the ground might have escaped like the monster in the mirror.
"Even if the mirror is covered with black cloth, the blood red door will still appear punctually."
Chen Ge knew nothing about the world behind the cubicle door, and temporarily, he had no better solution. He could only lock the cubicle that had caused the problem first.
After washing his face with cold water, Chen Ge returned to the staff breakroom. When he opened the door, he realized that Xiaoxiao had disappeared again.
"Did she purposely come to warn me?" Chen Ge sat on the edge of the bed. He could not fall asleep that quickly, so he took out the black phone.
Swiping the screen, Chen Ge clicked on the Daily Missions tab.
"Easy Mission: A scary experience should not cause trauma to the user's heart. Please improve the Haunted House's security system and investigate the safety hazards inside the Haunted House."
"Normal Difficulty: A good Haunted House needs a good team to run it. Recruit more talents, and they will help you overcome the difficulties."
"Nightmare Difficulty: There has been another person living in your room. Don't you want to know who he is?"
"Watch out! Some missions are extremely dangerous, so please choose carefully! "
Chen Ge was familiar with the three daily quests that had been refreshed. He had seen them many times.
"Simple missions and missions of average difficulty are what I should be doing at this stage. I need to expand my manpower, and the security system needs to be improved. But in comparison, the reward of the Nightmare Mission is more tempting. "
Danger and opportunity existed together, and the key was that after hiring the Pen Spirit, he would have one chance to predict the future every day.
From how he saw it, using this chance on the Nightmare Mission was more worthwhile.
Taking out the ballpoint pen that was wrapped in cellophane tape, Chen Ge felt quite embarrassed. "If there's a chance, I'll ask the Pen Spirit if I can give her a different pen."
He found a random piece of paper and placed it on the table. Chen Ge chanted the spell to summon the Pen Spirit. After getting a response from the Pen Spirit, he asked the question that had been on his mind.
"Can I complete the latest Nightmare Mission on the phone safely?"
After that, Chen Ge looked at the paper before him. The ballpoint pen trembled for a long time, but it did not draw the answer.
"Is this question that difficult?" The Pen Spirit's power was not as powerful as Chen Ge thought. It seemed like she could not answer anything related to the black phone.
Chen Ge looked at the ballpoint pen that was about to disintegrate and quickly changed the question. "That doesn't count. I want to ask you, is there someone else living in this room?"
The ballpoint pen stopped on the paper for a long time before writing down the word 'yes'.
"Then do you know what it looks like?"
This time, the Pen Spirit did not answer, and the ballpoint pen returned to normal.
Chen Ge did not blame the Pen Spirit. Prophecy seemed to exhaust the Pen Spirit, and that was probably why the Pen Spirit could only use it once a day.
"There's really someone else living here? I didn't notice it at all. Based on the mission introduction, this thing seems to be different from normal ghosts. " Chen Ge's Haunted House already had many tenants. He did not mind the appearance of more strange things, but the premise was that they had to listen to him and not harm the visitors like the mirror monster.
After giving it some thought, Chen Ge chose to accept the Nightmare Mission.
"Are you sure you want to accept the Nightmare Mission? Accepting it might trigger an unknown situation. "
"Yes."
The screen flickered, and a new message appeared.
"It lives in the same room as you, and when you fall asleep, it will appear.
"If it has kindness in its heart, it will wipe away the filth behind you and protect the safety of your home.
"If it has evil in its heart, it will stand beside your bed when you are asleep and think of ways to destroy you.
"The following game is called The Invisible Guest. In the wee hours of the morning, soaked white rice is scattered around the house, a pair of worn slippers is placed outside the door, a stick of pewter is lit on the bedroom floor, and the bed is arranged to look like someone is sleeping soundly. Finally, you lie under the bed. The key to the mission is that you have to really fall asleep. If you can see its face, the mission will be considered a success.
"This is the third Nightmare Mission that you've accepted. After completing the mission, you will be given a random Trial Mission with a scary scenario.
"Warning: After completing the third Nightmare Mission, the Nightmare Missions in the Daily Missions will be randomly refreshed. Please treat each Nightmare Mission seriously!"
After reading through it, Chen Ge memorized the mission information.
"Why does the key to the mission have to be asleep? How will I see its face when I'm asleep? Will I see it in my dream? " Chen Ge did not quite understand the mission, but since he had already accepted it, he could only follow its instructions.
After putting on his jacket, Chen Ge once again visited the theme park canteen late at night to 'borrow' half a bowl of rice.
