Xu Shu had put in a lot of effort for Chen Ge's Haunted House. "We'll happily send the visitors in and then bring them out safely. Isn't that a good idea?"
"Okay, don't worry, everything is under control." With Xu Shu's repeated reminders, Chen Ge led the five visitors to the first floor of the Haunted House.
"Sign the disclaimer first." Chen Ge took out a few pieces of paper from under the table and handed them to the five visitors. "The precautions are all written on them. You can take a look."
"That's quite formal." The leader signed his name without even looking at it. His name was Wang Hailong. He was 1.85 meters tall, and he appeared to be around the same age as Chen Ge.
"Boss, does the reward that you mentioned outside count? If someone really manages to find all twenty-four nametags, you won't regret it, right? " The slightly shorter man next to Wang Hailong was called Wang Wenlong. The two should be biological brothers because they looked alike, but their personalities were different.
"As a shop owner, the most important thing is honesty." Chen Ge had a professional smile on his face.
"The reward for entering the Haunted House alone and finding all twenty-four nametags is 20,000. Boss, can we discuss this? If all five of us find all twenty-four nametags, can you reward us with 5,000?" The person who spoke seemed to be Wang Hailong's girlfriend. She was wearing hot pants and an unlined shirt. Her top was unbuttoned, and there was a flying butterfly tattoo on her beautiful collarbone.
The girl's name was Dou Menglu. She was beautiful, but her handwriting was ugly.
"No problem. The main purpose of our visit is to have fun. As long as you can find all the nametags within twenty minutes, the reward will be 5,000." Chen Ge looked at the group of visitors with a smile.
"That's great! Next time, I'll ask my brothers to come and support you, "Wang Hailong said as he put down the pen in his hand.
"Then I'll thank you in advance." What a kind and passionate visitor. Chen Ge was touched. "Since you're done, follow me. A friendly reminder, do not stay in the last classroom for too long."
The group came to the end of the corridor on the first floor. Chen Ge pulled back the wooden plank on the ground. "There are many legends circulating around this abandoned school. Whether you believe them or not, you have to be careful. After entering, no photos or videos are allowed. Violators will have to bear the consequences. "
"It's underground?" The five of them looked at the dim underground tunnel. They could vaguely see something moving back and forth inside.
"Holy sh * t, what is that?" Fatty, who hadn't spoken all this while, took a step back. He had a big belly, small eyes, and wasn't very courageous.
"Pei Hu, we haven't even entered and you're already turning into a sick cat?" Wang Hailong tugged at Pei Hu's chubby arm. "It's all fake. If you're afraid, stand behind Meili."
"Two grown men chattering. Are we going in or not?" The one who spoke was another woman. She looked fierce, not tall, and her body was about the same size. Even though she tried her best to dress up, when she stood next to Dou Menglu, she looked like a supporting leaf.
Chen Ge glanced at her disclaimer. The woman's name was Xia Meili.
"What's the hurry?" Wang Hailong winked at Chen Ge. "Boss, we'll start the timer after we go down!"
"Okay." Chen Ge pretended to take out his phone and started the timer.
After sending the five visitors underground, he closed the wooden plank and put his phone away.
Timer? That was impossible.
The fact that they could walk out was already a miracle.
Entering the dressing room, Chen Ge put on Doctor Skull-cracker's outfit and put on the mask before entering the control room.
He searched for the background music and thought about it. He did not play Black Friday on repeat.
"Xu Shu has a point. We're in the service industry, so we should consider the visitors." He moved the mouse, lowered the volume, opened Wedding Dress, and added it to the playlist.
"Listening to the same song all the time, even the visitors will get sick of it."
…
The wooden plank above them was closed. The five visitors stood in the dim corridor, looking at the half-open classroom doors, and they could hear the rustling sound in their ears.
"This place is so big." Pei Hu nudged backward to stand next to Xia Meili.
"Of course, how can they hide so many nametags in such a small space? The boss is not an idiot. " Wang Wenlong, who was the thinnest, was the first to walk forward. "Let's hurry. There are five of us looking for twenty-four nametags, so the chance is high. After we win the 5,000, we'll go out for hot pot and karaoke. "
"Since we're already here, why are we still standing there? Listen to my little brother." Wang Hailong strode forward, and when he passed the door of the first classroom, he suddenly stopped.
This sudden movement spooked the people behind him. Dou Menglu followed closely behind him and whispered, "Hailong, what did you see?"
"Look at you guys. What's there to be afraid of? "He kicked open the classroom door, and the nametags that hung on the door fell to the ground." It's just so random! "
He picked up the nametags. A girl's name was written on it — Chen Ya Lin.
"This nametags are placed at such an obvious spot. It's probably to tell us what the nametags look like and what they look like." Wang Wenlong accepted the nametags. "Every nametags has a name on it, and the edges are yellowed. They look like they're from many years ago, so they won't be easily replicated."
"What's the point of talking so much? We've only been here for less than ten seconds, and we've already found one. As long as we're not afraid, finding the remaining twenty-three shouldn't be a problem. "Wang Hailong took back the nametags and continued to move forward. The rest of the group slowly lowered their guard.
They moved deeper into Mu Yang High School. The cold wind ruffled the papers on the ground. No one noticed that even though all five of them were wearing shoes, there were blurry footprints on the papers.
The temperature dropped even lower, and a strange nursery rhyme came from somewhere in the dark corridor.
It sounded like someone was crying, but at the same time, it sounded like someone was laughing.
The atmosphere became more and more eerie. It felt like something was hiding in the classrooms on both sides, and it felt like there were pairs of eyes watching them in the dark.
"There's nothing to be afraid of, but how come I feel so uneasy?"
To find the nametags faster, the five split up.
Xia Meili and Wang Wenlong searched the classroom on the left, and the rest searched the classroom on the right. They checked the drawers of the earlier classrooms, but they did not find any nametags.
"This Haunted House's boss is quite something. We need to move forward; we can't waste any more time." Wang Hailong walked at the front, and when he passed the last classroom, he suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong, Brother Long? Another nametags? " Pei Hu poked his head in the direction that Wang Hailong had stopped, and with just a glance, a chill rushed into his brain.
There was a man standing by the window, and the expression on his face appeared to be one of laughter.
The scariest thing was, looking through the window, behind this mannequin, there were more than twenty people standing or sitting!
