Running to the third basement floor alone, standing inside a hidden room that looked like a murder scene, and standing before him was a strange woman covered in blood. Anyone would be afraid of such a scenario.
Wei Jinyuan scratched his neck. His back was drenched, and his Adam's apple moved as cold sweat slid down his forehead.
He had been looking for the actors at the Haunted House, trying to understand why it was so popular, but when he saw the actors in person, for some reason, he felt guilty.
He could not explain the reason. The woman was standing several meters away from him, but his heart was unsettled.
Is it the effect of the environment or the make-up? Wei Jinyuan's heart was pounding, and he used a whole minute before he calmed down. Throughout the whole process, the woman just stood beside the wall and showed no intention of coming over.
Similar to the shadow that I ran into in the corridor, they don't appear to actively scare people, and they don't know how to hide. Are the actors at this Haunted House too confident, or are they worried about something else? Are they afraid that they might scare the visitors too much, so they use this method to 'scare' the visitors? Wei Jinyuan's mind was a mess, and he slowly moved forward.
The hair on his body stood on end, and his body instinctively wanted to run. Every step required a lot of courage.
Hey, are you an actor at this Haunted House? His voice was shaking involuntarily. Wei Jinyuan kept reminding himself that there was no need to be afraid. The woman was just an actress, and after removing the make-up, she might look very cute.
The woman did not answer. Her arms were crossed before her chest, and her back was facing Wei Jinyuan. Her head was leaning against the wall, and she maintained a strange posture.
You're not going to answer? Fine, I'd like to see what you're up to. Walking in the room that was soaked in blood, the floor rustled. It took Wei Jinyuan ten seconds to walk the short distance.
He stopped next to the woman and poked his head out to look at her.
The female ghost, who was dressed in blood-red clothes and was filled with resentment, had her hands placed in front of her chest as if she was holding something?
The clue wouldn't be inside the ghost's arms, would it? Wei Jinyuan's eyes widened. "This Haunted House's boss sure is a scumbag. He hid the clue at a place like this."
If the clue was with the woman in the red dress, the visitors had to get close to the female ghost to get the clue. If the visitors were too afraid to get close, then they could only be trapped inside the scenario or search for new clues.
"Fortunately, I'm quite brave. You can't scare me." Wei Jinyuan gathered his courage and reached out to grab the few pieces of paper that the woman was holding in her hands. Just as he was about to pull them back, the woman's head that was leaning against the wall slowly turned.
Her body remained in its original position, and even her neck did not move. Only her head was tilted to one side.
His face was deathly pale, without a trace of blood. His facial features could be considered exquisite, but those two pitch-black eyes were somewhat frightening.
The woman in red did not seem to understand what Wei Jinyuan was doing. Her eyes were filled with resentment, but when she saw the black hair on her wrist, she calmed down.
"And she's even wearing pure black contact lenses? If not for the fact that I work at a Haunted House and know these make-up techniques, I might really be scared by you. " Wei Jinyuan pulled the few pieces of paper away from the woman's hands. He used the light from his phone to read them. "Haunted House's worker rules? Cannot have physical contact with visitors? Cannot harm the visitors? Should they faint, they should be sent to the underground morgue? "
Wei Jinyuan flipped through the few pieces of paper, and his mind was filled with question marks. "What is this? Where's the clue? "
He lifted his head to look at the woman. The woman was still in that strange position. Her body was half an inch away from the wall, and her head was leaning against the wall. Her eyes stared at the papers in his hands like she was waiting for Wei Jinyuan to return them to her.
"That's it?" Wei Jinyuan held the few pieces of paper. "You're a Haunted House worker, right? Is there something hidden between the lines? "
The woman had no idea what Wei Jinyuan was talking about. Her patience was slowly being worn down by Wei Jinyuan. Her dress was dripping with blood, and there was a faded scent of blood in the air.
"Oh, there's a second transformation?" Wei Jinyuan looked at the blood dripping from the woman's dress and forced himself to calm down. "There's a blood bag hidden inside her dress? But that's too unprofessional of you. Haunted House workers focus on speed, precision, and accuracy. You're so slow that the visitors are already prepared. "
Wei Jinyuan actually had no idea how the woman managed to do that. He kept talking to hide the anxiety in his heart.
"Looks like just finding the clue isn't enough. I need to decipher the secret." Wei Jinyuan felt his neck itch more and more like something was sitting on his shoulder, shivering. He even felt a pulling force pulling him backward like something was telling him to leave as soon as possible.
"Is this a psychological hint? What is it that's hinting at me? When I came here, I saw many people saying that the boss is an expert in psychology. Looks like I've fallen into his trap without realizing it. " Wei Jinyuan held the phone in one hand, and the light from the phone shone on him and the woman next to him. His other hand held the few pieces of paper. "What's the problem? It's not that scary, so why is my heart beating so fast? "
Being shone on by the light and having her worker's rules taken away, the woman's face started to turn red. She felt like the man was purposely trying to humiliate her.
The smell of blood in the air thickened. The viscous blood slid down the dress, creating a dripping sound.
Wei Jinyuan was still thinking. He felt like he had walked into a strange circle. From the moment I entered the Haunted House, there were several empty rooms. There was no decoration, much less scare points. There was not even the symbolic sign of blood. Why would a Haunted House like this give me such a feeling of unease? What is the source of this indescribable pressure? I think I can smell the scent of blood. Is this an illusion, or is this some kind of psychological hint that he has placed on me? "
None of the questions had an answer, and everything was a mystery. Wei Jinyuan scratched his neck and frowned. "The environment is complicated, and it gives people an indescribable sense of horror. The clues are also very strange, and it is very confusing."
While he was still thinking, the paper in his hand was grabbed by another pale hand.
"What are you doing?"
Wei Jinyuan lifted his head to look. His mouth was half open, and his expression froze.
The woman who was originally standing next to the wall, her body was still standing far away, but her head had disappeared!
The uneven cut, the blood that kept flowing, this scene was like a hammer that smashed into Wei Jinyuan's brain. He felt like he had been struck by lightning, and multiple currents surged through his blood vessels!
"Where's the head?"
He could confirm that the actor standing before him was a living person. The exquisite facial features, the rich expression, and the disdain that seemed like she was looking at a piece of trash was definitely not something that could be created by a prop.
But such a living person's head had disappeared in the blink of an eye!
"Give me back my stuff."
A woman's voice came from his shoulder. Wei Jinyuan turned his head mechanically, and he soon saw something even more shocking. The woman's head was connected by blood vessels, and it was resting on his shoulder.
When their eyes met, Wei Jinyuan felt like his heart had stopped, and all the blood in his body rushed to his brain at the same time.
"Help!"
He screamed at the top of his lungs. With one hand holding the phone and the other holding the few pages of the worker's manual, he ran out of the bedroom at the fastest speed that he had ever run in his life!
"Give it back to me! Give it back to me!"
Resentment swirled around her, and thick blood dripped to the ground. The woman in the red dress chased after Wei Jinyuan.
The blood vessels and black hair tangled together, and the woman hugged her own head as she followed behind.
Running down the dark corridor, Wei Jinyuan had no time to analyze the situation anymore. There was only one simple thought in his mind — run!
He even forgot to look at the road as he ran down the corridor!
Gasping for air, he had no idea how far he had run, but the vibrating phone in his hand woke him up slightly.
His heart was about to jump out of his chest. Wei Jinyuan turned to look at the screen, and the caller ID said Li Xu.
He was like a drowning man grasping at the last straw that could save his life, and he clicked on the answer button madly!
"Jinyuan, it's the same thing from earlier. We found another piece of the map, and after piecing it together, we realized that the direction that you and Cold Man were heading to is an extremely dangerous area … "
Before Li Xu finished, he was interrupted by Wei Jinyuan. "Xu! Come and save me! Save me! "
"Slow down. What's going on?"
Wei Jinyuan wanted to slow down as well, but when he turned around, he saw the woman in the red dress with her head separated from her body. She was waving her hands, and under the guidance of her head, she was running toward him!
"Come here quickly! There's a woman here! She doesn't have a head! She doesn't have a head! "Wei Jinyuan screamed at the top of his lungs, and his face was twisted from fear.
"No head? Special effects actress? Tell me more clearly. Don't come up with no head or tail. It's confusing. "
"It's not that I'm confused! This is so f * cking confusing! "
Wei Jinyuan's voice echoed down the dark corridor, and then the phone was hung up.
…
"Ridiculous." On the other end of the phone, Li Xu stood where he was, holding the phone.
When Wei Jinyuan had screamed earlier, Li Xu and the people around him had all heard it.
"What's wrong with Xiao Jin?" The male host seemed to be familiar with the few workers from Nightmare Academy, but there was no concern in his tone, just curiosity. "Xiao Jin is very brave. To be able to scare him to the point that his voice changed, it means that this Haunted House is quite something."
"Everyone, be careful. I didn't hear what Jinyuan was saying earlier, but I know there's a headless woman." Seeing his partner so scared, even Li Xu felt embarrassed. "Ignore him. Wei Jinyuan is a designer at my place, and he doesn't come to the Haunted House often. He's the most cowardly among us."
"Stubborn duck." Wang Yan had heard Wei Jinyuan's scream for help earlier, and he was a soft-hearted person. "I advise you to listen to me. Stop using the phone and go back the way we came. We won't be able to clear this scenario with a bunch of newbies who don't follow the rules."
"If you're really that good, then leave on your own. Don't shamelessly follow us." The male host ignored Wang Yan. After what happened to Wei Jinyuan, he was feeling strangely agitated.
Wang Yan stopped arguing. He used a voice that only he could hear to grumble, "If I leave, who's going to collect your bodies?"
"Stop arguing. This Haunted House is indeed unique to be able to scare Jinyuan. Now that we've found two pieces of the map, we should be able to escape soon." Li Xu was responsible for the design of props and traps at Nightmare Academy. He had been in this business for five years, and he had a lot of experience. With one glance, he could tell which parts of the Haunted House had hidden traps. Because of that, he was able to find some hints that Chen Ge had hidden in Li Wan City.
A Haunted House could be difficult, but there had to be a possibility of clearing the scenario for the visitors to find the game interesting. Those hints were the opportunities that Chen Ge had given the visitors.
With the map, they would be able to avoid some extremely dangerous areas, like the woman in the red dress at the third underground floor.
Such an arrogant person had been scared to the point of wailing in just a few minutes. This created a certain amount of psychological pressure on the other visitors.
"Come on, let's move forward and see if there's anything else." Li Xu put his phone away and held the two pieces of the map in his hands.
"It feels like this Haunted House is trying to wear down our patience. When we lower our guard and start to get agitated, the workers will suddenly appear to scare us. That's probably how Xiao Jin got scared." The male host looked at his watch and then exchanged a look with Li Xu.
Li Xu understood immediately. He nodded and said, "After we enter the next building, we should temporarily split up. This is too inefficient. After we finish searching the whole building, we'll meet up at the entrance."
Without waiting for the others' agreement, Li Xu and the male host entered the building before them.
"Let's go together," the specially recruited student, Zhang Feng, said. The specially recruited student, Zhang Feng, said, but Li Jiu and the male streamer acted like they did not hear him. They disappeared into the building.
"Let's go in as well." Wang Yan said lightly. He had a feeling that Li Xu and the male host had some ulterior motive for entering the Haunted House.
"Are you sure?" Initially, Zhang Feng was not that afraid, but when he heard Wei Jinyuan's voice on the phone, he started to panic. "The building in front of us looks like a small hospital. The hospitals inside a Haunted House should be the focus of the project."
"Are you afraid?" Wang Yan did not even look at Zhang Feng and walked into the building.
"Afraid? Who are you looking down on? I don't believe a Haunted House can be more exciting than bungee jumping. "
Zhang Feng looked at the wooden sign that said Li Wan Private Hospital. He suppressed the anxiety in his heart and followed Wang Yan and Wang Yan's girlfriend into the building.
