The whole lobby was filled with people. There were visitors downstairs who did not come up, and there were still new visitors entering the building.
When it was almost 10 pm, the proprietor of Tian Teng Medical School finally walked out. He was not tall, and he had a crew cut. He looked about thirty.
Behind him were two models in high-slit nurse outfits. Their faces were painted white, and their eyes were seductive.
The proprietor tried the loudspeaker and stood on the stage. "Thanks to everyone's love, Tian Teng Medical School has maintained …"
Chen Ge's eyes scanned the two models. He was too lazy to listen to the proprietor's opening speech. He was planning to design a sexy uniform for Xu Wan the next time his Haunted House held an event.
The proprietor talked for two to three minutes before he got to the important point. "Every six months, we will optimize the Haunted House and hire a professional design team from overseas. All the scare points are upgraded. I can tell you with confidence that Tian Teng Medical School is scarier than any Haunted House on the market! We aim for the ultimate horror, unlike some Haunted Houses that rely on marketing and fake reviewers to promote their Haunted House. They think they're smart, but they're putting the cart before the horse, and there are so many people following them. Honestly, I think they're being ridiculous! "
Chen Ge was getting impatient. He nudged forward, but there were too many people. He walked for a long time before he found the ticket counter. "I want a ticket."
"Do you have a reservation online?"
"No."
"I'm sorry, but we've booked all the tickets for today. Would you like to wait for the afternoon session?"
"Sold out?"
The proprietor was still speaking on the stage. "If the Haunted Houses on the market are first generation Haunted Houses, then our Tian Teng Medical School is a fourth generation Haunted House that combines the latest technology! Today is our first day of business in Jiujiang. To give everyone a better understanding, we will randomly select four visitors to experience the Haunted House while wearing a portable electrocardiogram monitor! Through the loudspeaker and the electrocardiogram on the projector, you will be able to judge how scary our Haunted House is! "
Before the proprietor finished, the atmosphere in the crowd started to heat up. It was unclear whether this was a setup or not.
"Every ticket has a serial number. We'll draw lots according to the serial number." The person in charge gestured to the ticket counter. The staff at the ticket counter understood tacitly and began to draw.
Chen Ge saw all of this. The man was using his Haunted House to boost his own popularity, and that was something that he could not tolerate.
"Wait!" Chen Ge raised his hand and walked directly toward the stage. "Earlier, you said that your Haunted House is very scary, and other Haunted Houses rely on marketing and paid posters to gain attention. I do not agree with that."
The person in charge frowned. If there weren't so many people, he would have called security.
"I'm the boss of Western Jiujiang's Haunted House, the owner of the Haunted House that you slandered on the website. Two days ago, I hosted a livestream that was watched by 600,000 people."
Chen Ge walked up to the platform as if nothing had happened. When everyone saw his face, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.
"Boss?!"
Chen Ge turned toward the voice and saw Heshan and Gao Ru Xue standing not far away.
"Why are you here?" Chen Ge was startled. Heshan's action was no different from 'aiding the enemy'. "If you want to visit a Haunted House, why don't you come to Western Jiujiang to find me?"
He San did not know what to say. He was trying to figure out how to bring it up. After all, he could not say in front of Tian Teng Medical School, "Your Boss Chen's Haunted House is too scary. We have nightmares every night, so we came to another Haunted House to relax."
This was seen by the proprietor of Tian Teng Medical School, and he recognized Chen Ge. "Looks like your Western Jiujiang's Haunted House is not that popular. Even your own friends aren't willing to go and support you. Since you're here to study, we'll count you in, and we'll randomly draw three more slots. "
The person in charge was very cunning. They had slandered Chen Ge's Haunted House on the official website, so they obviously knew about Chen Ge's existence. Now that they had voluntarily allowed Chen Ge to enter the Haunted House, their intention was clear. If Chen Ge made a fool of himself at the Haunted House, he could use that as an excuse to compete for customers from Western Jiujiang's Haunted House.
Actually, he had the same idea as Chen Ge — they both wanted to recruit the other party's visitors.
Chen Ge's Haunted House had become a trending topic due to the recent livestream, but the popularity did not last long. It would only last for a week. Even though Tian Teng Medical School was not as famous as Chen Ge's Haunted House in Jiujiang, they were very famous among the local Haunted House enthusiasts, and they had many loyal fans like Su Su.
"Come, help him install the audio recorder and electrocardiogram monitor." Two models in high-slit nurse outfits walked to Chen Ge's side. "Now, we'll draw the remaining three participants."
"I don't think that's necessary." Chen Ge waved his hands. "Challenging a Haunted House alone is more difficult. If you can scare me, I will admit that my Haunted House is not as good as yours on my Haunted House's homepage and put it at the top for a month."
The person in charge of Tian Teng Medical School was tempted by Chen Ge's words, but he had a feeling that something was off. He asked cautiously, "What level do I have to be scared of?"
"Didn't you install a portable electrocardiogram monitor? A normal walking person's heart rate is around 60 to 100, but after a scare, the oxygen level in the blood will drop rapidly, and the heart rate will double. " Chen Ge looked at the person in charge of Tian Teng Medical School and said calmly, "If my heart rate goes over 100, then I lose."
"It's a deal." The manager did not give Chen Ge the chance to change his mind and agreed immediately. Ignoring the fear and strenuous activity, even when jogging, Chen Ge's heart rate might go over one hundred, so from how he saw it, Chen Ge would definitely lose.
"Don't be so quick to agree. If I lose, I will admit that my Haunted House is not as good as your Haunted House, but what if you lose?"
"Don't worry, if we lose, we will also admit that our Haunted House is not as good as yours." The person in charge pointed at the visitors present. "We can all testify for you."
"Actually, I have a small request." An innocent smile appeared on Chen Ge's face. "I feel like you have some misunderstandings about my Haunted House. I hope that your team can come to visit my Haunted House as well. There's a new scenario that I recently added, and no visitors have tried it yet. "
"Okay, no problem." The person in charge agreed easily, and he gained a good impression from the visitors.
