In the end, Chen Ge found Li Xu and Huang Hu inside Li Wan Private Hospital's morgue. Both of them were unconscious, but their vitals were stable, so they did not need to be transferred to the paramedics.
The child's handprint on the back of Huang Hu's neck had disappeared. Tong Tong had been manipulating it in the dark to influence their communication.
"Go to the underground morgue and get a trolley." Chen Ge dragged the hammer and told the patient next to Li Xu, "Don't worry, I won't blame you. For visitors who use phones inside the Haunted House and refuse to learn, you can do whatever you want. After all, we have the best doctors here. When we have more money in the future, I'll import a batch of medical equipment so that we can have our fun. "
Seeing how open-minded his boss was, the patient quickly nodded and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute." Chen Ge turned back to look. "Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Both of them were intimidated by you alone? "
The patient glanced at the mortuary beds that were covered with white cloth. In the end, he nodded his head in a very loyal manner.
"Li Wan Private Hospital needs a leader. You're not bad. I'll focus on training you in the future." Chen Ge was not joking — he was a man of action. "It's hard to become a Red Specter, but becoming a Half Red Specter is relatively easy."
The patient stood where he was. He had enjoyed scaring the two earlier. The group of ghosts had chased after the two for ten minutes, and when they really fainted, they realized that they might have gone too far.
That scary shadow flashed across his mind. Many patients had escaped, but this honest man had stayed.
He actually felt uncomfortable. He had tried his best to satisfy the visitors' needs, but he had not expected the other party to play tricks on him, causing all the patients in the scenario to go on a rampage.
Now that something had happened, he felt like he was the main culprit, so he stayed.
He was already prepared to be punished, but he did not expect that Chen Ge not only did not criticize him, but also wanted to focus on training him. This kind of psychological contrast made his heart, which was entangled with hatred, have an indescribable strange feeling.
"Alright, don't just stand there. Go to the underground morgue to find a cart and push them out of the scenario."
The patient ran away happily. Chen Ge squatted down beside Huang Hu and Li Xu and started to inspect them. "Li Xu's face is covered with make-up. A visitor came to my Haunted House to pretend to be a ghost. Is he trying to scare my employees?"
"Huang Hu came to my Haunted House for a livestream and exposed the design of my Haunted House before hundreds of thousands of people. Li Xu came into my Haunted House to disguise himself as an actor to cause trouble. They have a clear division of labor, so it looks like this is all part of a plan. " Chen Ge found a small make-up bag in Li Xu's pocket and an access card to the futuristic theme park.
The futuristic theme park was not open yet, so all the attractions were kept secret. To enter, one had to swipe the card.
"They are indeed related to the futuristic theme park." Chen Ge placed everything back and did not take them with him. "The futuristic theme park is opening soon, so I cannot waste any more time. I'll try to release the four-star scenario on the opening day!"
Standing up, Chen Ge dragged the hammer and left Li Wan Private Hospital.
…
On the second basement floor of Li Wan City, Shinozaki and his female assistant, Xiao Xia, were tearing at the tape inside the room.
This was the mission given to them by Wei Jinyuan, but to their dismay, several minutes ago, Wei Jinyuan's screams that sounded like a pig being slaughtered came from deeper underground.
The two were not that brave. Triggered by Wei Jinyuan's screams, their already anxious hearts raced.
"Do you want to go down to take a look?" Xiao Xia asked politely, but in reality, her face was filled with resistance.
"Forget it. Everyone has their own specialties. Wei Jinyuan said that he works at a Haunted House, so I believe he can handle everything on his own." Shinozaki coughed drily. He had seen the mark on the back of Wei Jinyuan's neck earlier, and he knew that something bad would happen to him.
"Then, what should we do now?" Xiao Xia asked a crucial question. Even though Wei Jinyuan did not look like a normal person, being with him gave her a sense of security. Now that Wei Jinyuan had been 'killed', the two of them needed to face these unknown ghosts on their own.
"Don't worry." Shinozaki thought about it and came up with a good idea. "We'll wait here. Wei Jinyuan has a friend in the building next door. He will come when he hears the screams, and we'll follow him."
"Okay." Xiao Xia looked at the half-open door, and outside it was the dark corridor. "Should I go and close the door?"
"Yes, we'll pretend that there's no one in this room and pay attention to the situation outside through the peephole."
"But we've already removed the tape on the door, right?"
"We can't worry about that now."
The two closed the door and stood guard at the door.
Shinozaki leaned against the door and looked out through the peephole. There was only darkness outside, and he could not see anything.
Xiao Xia leaned against the wall, and cold sweat kept pouring down her face. For some reason, she was feeling very nervous, like there was someone else in the room.
"Sir, why do you think all the furniture in this room is covered in tape?"
"I have no idea," Shinozaki answered casually. He leaned against the door, trying to figure out how to get a better look at the corridor outside.
"The tape is to prevent things from cracking on their own, but does this mean that the furniture can move on its own? All the gaps are covered with tape, so do you think the drawers will suddenly open on their own? To prevent that from happening, the owner used the tape to seal the gaps? "Xiao Xia still did not realize how scary she was talking about.
"Open on their own? Why would the drawers open on their own? "Shinozaki turned around to look at Xiao Xia.
"Perhaps there's something hidden inside the furniture, or perhaps there are invisible people in the room, and they will move the furniture around."
"Invisible people?" Shinozaki's expression darkened, but he managed to maintain his composure. "This is a good source material for me to draw into my comic. Not bad, we've only been here for a few minutes, and we've already found two material. "
"Sir, why don't we leave this place? This place feels weird." Xiao Xia looked around anxiously, and she suddenly realized that the DVD player in the living room had been switched on.
"That's right, the scarier the better! I have to show those who think I only know how to draw comics that a real comic artist can master any kind of comic! " Shinozaki was a hot-tempered person, and other than his comics, he really did not have much else to show, so the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
"When we came in, was the DVD player on?" Xiao Xia did not pay attention to what Shinozaki said. She looked at the DVD player with confusion, and as she watched, the signal light of the television in the living room also came on.
"Quick, look!" Xiao Xia gasped. "Sir! We seem to have triggered something! "
"Don't panic." Shinozaki signaled for Xiao Xia to calm down, and the two of them slowly walked to stand before the television.
"This should be remote control. I've seen this at a Japanese Haunted House before. This is not good. That scary Haunted House boss is about to make his move on us!" Shinozaki inspected the television. Perhaps he had touched something, but the image suddenly appeared on the screen.
The cold light fell on the two's faces, and they turned to look at the screen in unison.
The quality of the old television was very poor, but the two could tell with one glance that the image on the television was the living room they were in.
It looked exactly the same. It was like someone had placed a camera on the television and aimed it at the door of the living room.
"Surveillance? He installed a surveillance camera in his own home? "Shinozaki and Xiao Xia stared at the screen, not daring to move.
After ten seconds, they realized that the image on the screen was still the same; nothing had changed.
"To install a surveillance camera in his own home, it means that something strange has happened here, and the owner wants to find out what is going on." Shinozaki pulled open the drawer at the bottom of the television cabinet. It was filled with many CDs without covers. They appeared to have been recorded by the owner himself. "The information to escape might be hidden inside these CDs."
Shinozaki buried his head in the drawer to look for clues while Xiao Xia stared at the television screen. She kept feeling like there was something moving in the seemingly still image.
"Is that a bug?" Xiao Xia took a few steps forward, and her face was almost stuck to the screen. She stared at the bathroom door in the middle of the screen.
The door was half-open, and on the side of the door frame, several strands of black hair poked out.
"It looks like hair."
When the television was first turned on, there was nothing in the bathroom, so these few strands of hair were new.
Xiao Xia was confused. She was about to call Mr. Shinozaki over to take a look when the few strands of hair on the screen suddenly moved.
"The hair is moving?"
The image quality was very poor. She wanted to confirm it, so she leaned closer.
However, just as she leaned closer to the screen, a woman's face suddenly poked out from inside the bathroom!
"Ah!"
Xiao Xia screamed and jumped onto the sofa in fright. "There's a ghost! Sir! She's on the television! She's on the television! "
The room was not that big, and it was originally very quiet, but with Xiao Xia's scream, even Shinozaki was spooked.
He put down the disc that he was holding and lifted his head to look at the television.
On the screen, a woman's face poked out from inside the bathroom.
It was a very delicate face, but to Shinozaki's horror, no matter where he was in the room, the face appeared to be looking at him!
"It's fine. Don't panic, don't be afraid. This is just a small trap set up by the boss." Shinozaki was starting to lose his composure. He wanted to turn off the television, but he could not find the switch.
"Sir, we'd better leave now. We'll come back with more people next time." Xiao Xia was so scared that her face turned pale. She almost couldn't take it anymore. She couldn't use any strength and her legs were weak. "That was too scary. Why don't you stay here and look around? I'll go out first."
Xiao Xia held onto the edge of the sofa. She wanted to jump down from the sofa, but when she turned around, she saw …
About two meters away from her, a woman's face poked out from inside the bathroom. This scene was exactly the same as the one in the video!
"F * ck, I'm so scared that I'm hallucinating." Xiao Xia turned to look at the television. The video was still frozen at the spot where the woman's head had just poked out from the bathroom. "Yes, this is the scene from the television."
She turned her head back, and a woman appeared before her. She had delicate features and a beautiful face, but her body was covered in wounds, and blood was dripping from her wounds.
The muscles on Xiao Xia's face were twitching. When she fell backward, she used all the energy in her body to scream, "Ghost! There's a ghost! "
Shinozaki was still trying to figure out why the woman in the video kept staring at him. He suspected that the woman was using the same technique that Da Vinci used when he painted the Mona Lisa.
However, before he could come up with an explanation, he heard Xiao Xia's scream. When he turned back to look, he was also scared out of his wits.
The empty room that he had inspected multiple times had suddenly appeared with the addition of a woman covered in blood and wounds!
This was more than just a scare; it was a shock!
Xiao Xia's warning had given Shinozaki some warning. Even though he was scared to death, he had not lost control of his body.
The woman blocked the living room door, and Shinozaki dragged Xiao Xia into the bedroom.
"Bang!"
Closing the door, Shinozaki's heart raced. He even had the urge to call the police.
"What should I do? What should I do? " Shinozaki was so scared that he almost forgot that he was inside a Haunted House. It took him a long time to recover. "Yes, I'm inside a Haunted House!"
He leaned against the door and started to yell at the people outside the room, "I've given up! I'm not playing anymore! Please, leave! Please, I'm begging you to leave! "
There was no reply from outside the door, and there was no sound of footsteps. Shinozaki held Xiao Xia, and neither of them dared to be the first to leave.
"How about … we just stay here?" After what had happened earlier, Shinozaki did not dare force himself anymore. This Haunted House had studied the human heart to the extreme.
Other Haunted Houses would let the visitors relax first and then sneak out to scare them when they were unprepared.
This Haunted House was different. It would scare the visitors from the start, and after that, it would use a method that was ten times scarier to scare the visitors from a different angle.
"In the future, I'll have to invite those cartoonists who look down on me to come in and play." There was no movement outside the room, and Shinozaki did not know what to do next. "The female ghost has blocked the door to prevent us from leaving. There has to be a reason for the design of this Haunted House. Could it be that there are clues hidden in this bedroom, the only hiding place?"
After having Xiao Xia block the door, Shinozaki looked into the room, and he suddenly noticed something strange. On the study table in the bedroom, there were drawing papers and several pens of different shapes.
"G pens? Ballpoint pens? Meticulous brushes? " Shinozaki recognized the pens on the table with one glance. "G pens are used to draw the main characters, ballpoint pens are used to draw the details like the patterns on the clothes and eyelashes, and meticulous brushes are used to draw large areas of black. These are all pens that are used to draw comics! Could it be that the owner of this room is a cartoonist? "
Shinozaki did not expect to run into a fellow cartoonist while visiting a Haunted House.
He walked to the table and flipped through the drawings.
Initially, he did not pay much attention to them, but the more he studied them, the more shocked he became.
"This is a drawing style that I've never seen before, and the plot design is enough to make one's hair stand on end. The creator of this comic is a genius! Is he trying to create a whole new genre? "
