The toilet was dark, and the surroundings were quiet. Chen Ge could hear his own heartbeat.
He looked at the mirror before him. When the hand crossed midnight, the surface of the mirror blurred like something was covering it. Then, a number appeared in the middle of the mirror — 0.
The number on the mirror changed again, and this was completely out of Chen Ge's expectation. From how he saw it, this number was left behind by the mirror monster. Now that the mirror monster had been consumed by Zhang Ya, the number should have disappeared.
Could it be that this number has nothing to do with the mirror monster?
He took out his phone to snap a picture of the number, but when he raised his hand, his whole body froze.
The scene in the mirror was different from reality. The cubicle door had turned red!
It was a red that spread from the inside out, and it was soaked in blood. It was as if the cubicle was filled with blood, and the blood kept seeping out from the gap.
Why would the cubicle door in the mirror change? Chen Ge took out his phone to record. He turned around and slowly pushed the cubicle door open.
The cubicle door in real life was pushed open, and so was the cubicle door in the mirror.
There was nothing inside the cubicle in real life, but in the mirror, everything inside the cubicle was dyed red, including the partition, the trash, and even the small advertisements on the wall.
In the dark toilet, the blood red cubicle was strangely glaring.
Chen Ge had no idea what was going on. He took a step forward, and when half of his body reached into the cubicle, a sticky feeling appeared on the surface of his skin like something was squeezing and wrapping around him.
He quickly retreated, and one minute later, the cubicle door in the mirror returned to normal.
When Chen Ge entered the cubicle in real life again, the strange feeling was gone.
The blood red door in the mirror only appeared for one minute after midnight, and then everything returned to normal.
Why would the cubicle door in the mirror turn red? And when I push open the door, the walls and decorations behind the door turn red as well. Chen Ge switched on the light and leaned against the windowsill to think. Is that the world inside the mirror? The mirror monster escaped from that blood-red world? "
To confirm his speculation, Chen Ge searched for the message from his first Nightmare Mission in the black phone.
At that time, the mission hint was: If you want to see another world, you need extraordinary courage, extraordinary luck, and a little help.
"The mission clearly stated that we need to see another world, and this world should be the blood red world inside the cubicle."
Recalling the strange mission process that day, although Chen Ge did not open his eyes, his ears had been paying attention to the movements around him.
"I'm sure that I heard the sound of the toilet cubicle door shaking! At first, everything was normal. All the strange things only happened after the door shook. "
Halfway through the mission, he heard the door of the cubicle creak. At the time, he thought it was the wind, so he did not pay much attention to it. Now that he thought about it, the sound of the door shaking could very well have come from the mirror.
"The mirror might be the buffer zone that connects the two worlds. In the mirror, the cubicle door was pushed open, and the monster escaped from the blood red world. Due to the doll's interference, it was forced to stay inside the mirror." Chen Ge stared blankly at the wooden door of the cubicle, and a strange thought appeared in his mind. "If I enter the cubicle in real life when the door in the mirror turns red, what will happen? Does that mean I've stepped into the other world? "
Shaking his head to dispel this crazy thought, Chen Ge walked back to the mirror. "After the number hit zero, the blood red door appeared in the mirror. Looks like all my previous guesses were wrong. This number has nothing to do with the number of kills; it should be a countdown. It might represent the duration of the mirror monster's activity in real life."
The door in the mirror had returned to normal, but Chen Ge could not guarantee that it would not appear again. In fact, as long as the mirror monster did not return, the door would appear punctually at midnight.
"If it appears again tomorrow night, I'll remove the mirror. That's all I can do for now." Chen Ge found a thick black cloth to cover the mirror and left the bathroom.
Returning to the staff breakroom, Chen Ge opened the black phone to check the Daily Mission for the day.
"Easy Mission: A scary experience should not cause trauma to the user's heart. I believe you understand the concept of going too far is just as bad as not going far enough. Please improve the Haunted House's security system and investigate the potential security threats."
"Normal Mission: A good Haunted House needs a good team to run it. Hire more talents, and they will help you overcome the difficulties.
"Nightmare Mission: There has been another person living in your room. Don't you want to know who he is?"
These three missions were very familiar to Chen Ge. Actually, he was conflicted. For the sake of the Haunted House's development, choosing the Nightmare Mission was the best option, but after the incident with the mirror monster, he was a bit afraid of the black phone's Nightmare Mission.
"Oh well, I'll take a good rest today and decide tomorrow." Ever since he obtained the black phone, Chen Ge had not had a good night's sleep. If he continued like this, his body might not be able to take it anymore.
Pulling the blanket over him, it did not take long for Chen Ge to drift off to sleep.
At 8 am, the 'fully recovered' Chen Ge rushed out of his room. He first went to the Night of the Living Dead scenario on the first floor. The area that he had chosen the previous night had changed, and there was now a new tunnel that led underground.
"The black phone sure is efficient."
The floor was hollowed out, and he walked down the stairs to the abandoned underground parking lot.
Looking around, there was not even a single light in the parking lot; it was very old.
"That's it? Just a new staircase? " Chen Ge was slightly disappointed, but when he remembered that the whole parking lot was his territory, his fighting spirit was reignited. "Eastern Jiujiang's futuristic theme park will be completed in at most three months. In these three months, I need to unlock as many scenarios as I can and upgrade the Haunted House. I need to build a theme park that is as good as the other one."
Returning to the first floor, Chen Ge walked to the entrance of the Haunted House with the black phone. Between the fence and the Haunted House's corridor, there was an additional opaque black wooden building. It looked like two closets that had been stacked together.
