Standing between the two eerie buildings, Zhang Jingjiu and Lee Changyin looked at each other.
No one spoke. They had no experience dealing with ghosts, and the atmosphere was getting weirder and weirder.
Zhang Jingjiu coughed drily. He used to be a salesman, so he was more cheerful than Lee Changyin. He knew this was not going to work, so he decided to break the silence.
"Don't panic. Can you tell me in detail what the thing that you lost looks like? Like size, length, what's the special feature? "
"Describe it to you? Size? Length? Special feature? "Lee Changyin was stumped by Zhang Jingjiu's question. Was that a question a human being would ask?
He was just asking casually; he did not expect the man to ask so much.
The arrow had to be fired. After some hesitation, Lee Changyin said, "His face is blurry, and his body is bleeding. He has been crying. He said he's very, very cold."
"I can't see his face clearly. That's troublesome." Zhang Jingjiu held his chin and started to think seriously. "He said he's very cold, so he's probably hidden inside a freezer. But if he's inside a freezer, his blood should be frozen, so I can't rule out the possibility of him being in a freezer. Let me think of a place that's cooler. Oh right! The morgue at the small town hospital! Your child might have snuck into the hospital. I think you can go there to take a look. Pay attention to the crying. Whichever room is the loudest, that's where your child might be. "
"Are you serious?"
Lee Changyin was very confident in his make-up and acting skills. He was the best actor at Nightmare Academy, but before Zhang Jingjiu, he started to doubt himself. The man cooperated with him like he had seen through everything and was purposely trying to lure him to the morgue.
Zhang Jingjiu had no idea what Lee Changyin was thinking. He nodded. "If he's not at the hospital, there's no need to rush. After all, this place is only so big. We'll find him one day."
Lee Changyin could not believe that he was being comforted by a ghost. How should he describe this feeling?
It was a bit scary and exciting.
"Thank you, I'll go take a look now." In the end, Lee Changyin's voice was trembling. He had been hiding in the shadows with his head lowered to hide his Adam's apple.
"It's okay, we'll be family from now on." Zhang Jingjiu sighed internally. This ghost sure is polite; he even knows how to say thank you. Looks like the other workers at the Haunted House are quite friendly.
"A family? What do you mean? " Lee Changyin's heart raced. Was the man trying to kill him and then trap his soul inside the Haunted House to become a new employee?
"Right now, we are indeed a little distant. After all, this is the first time we've met. In the future, when we work together for a long time, we will naturally become familiar with each other." Zhang Jingjiu forced an ugly smile on his face.
"We'll work together in the future?" Lee Changyin's heart skipped a beat as he clenched his fists!
The dagger was revealed!
The enemy's true target was him! The man with the strange smile in front of him might have seen through his disguise! He wanted to keep her here forever!
Sweat soaked the make-up on his forehead. Lee Changyin knew very well that a normal Haunted House worker would not run to a pregnant stranger to tell her that they would be working together in the future.
The more Lee Changyin thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. He finally understood why he had been feeling unsettled ever since he entered this place.
This haunted house is really haunted!
"We'll talk about it when we have the chance." Li Changyin quickly left.
"The hospital is on the left!" Zhang Jingjiu rubbed his nose when he saw Li Changyin leaving in a hurry. "Did I say something wrong? It feels like I'm being hated. "
Before Lee Changyin left, the walkie-talkie in Zhang Jingjiu's pocket rang, and he quickly took it out.
"Jingjiu, why did you call me earlier?" Chen Ge's voice came from the walkie-talkie.
"An old worker came to find me and asked me some questions, but don't worry, we had a good time."
"An old worker came to find you?" Chen Ge was confused. "A normal worker can't stray too far away from their building. Without a home, they will continue to weaken. The two Red Specters are both heavily injured, and they have communicated with me. They won't actively seek out visitors. Jingjiu, what did the old worker look like? "
"It was a pregnant woman …"
"Okay, I understand. She's not one of us. Someone else has snuck in."
"Then what should we do?" Zhang Jingjiu was flustered. He really did not expect the pregnant woman to not be an employee.
"You've seen the ghosts in Eastern Jiujiang. There's light in this world, and there's darkness. There are righteous people like me, and naturally, there are evil people. But don't worry, no matter who they are, since they dare to mess around my Haunted House, they should be prepared for a one-way trip. "
"Understood." Zhang Jingjiu gave Chen Ge a detailed description of the pregnant woman before hanging up the walkie-talkie.
…
Putting away the walkie-talkie, Chen Ge stood at the junction. When he first heard Zhang Jingjiu's report, he thought it was the shadow's underlings.
But the more he listened, the more he realized that the pregnant woman was probably a living person in disguise.
This time, there were professional Haunted House workers among the visitors. They followed the host, Huang Hu, and for the sake of the show, they might pretend to be ghosts.
Hopefully, it's just a false alarm. Haunted House was Chen Ge's foundation; he could not afford to lose it.
For the sake of safety, Chen Ge contacted Tong Tong and had him wake up all the ghosts inside the scenario. He had to find the suspicious visitor as soon as possible.
Crying and laughter intertwined in the small town. Many dark shadows woke up at the corners. The hidden spirits were awakened, and they started to wander the streets.
Several seconds later, Chen Ge received a message from Tong Tong and Scissors.
Tong Tong had found the person, but Scissors was even better. He told Chen Ge that he had been following the person, and the person was acting suspiciously, different from normal visitors.
"Calm down, we'll make our move when I arrive."
Chen Ge glanced at the time on his phone. The tour was about to end.
…
Tossing the maternity outfit and bedsheet into a random room, Lee Changyin ran toward the exit in his memory without even removing the make-up.
He did not dare scream, afraid that he would be targeted by more evil spirits. He called his friends, but no one answered. He felt like he had been isolated in another world.
As the tour came to an end, the small town became scarier and scarier. Shadows started to move on the originally empty streets.
The fog that came out of nowhere had thickened, and it was laced with the smell of blood.
"It feels like there's a pair of eyes following me." Lee Changyin scratched his neck. He felt uncomfortable all over. Whenever there was a movement, he would turn his head to look. "There's someone behind me!"
Running past a junction, Lee Changyin suddenly picked up speed. He switched on the flashlight on his phone and shone it behind him.
In the fog, there was a strange person in a trench coat. He was holding a pair of scissors that looked scary as he chased after him.
"I knew it!" Lee Changyin was still very calm. He knew that the flashlight on his phone would expose him, so he immediately switched it off. "I've been to that house before. After entering through the front door, I can jump out from the window at the back. I'll use that house to shake off this monster."
His plan was not bad, but when he prepared to move forward, he suddenly stopped moving.
At the corner of the street, a person wearing a doctor's outfit and shackled in chains slowly walked out, dragging a scary-looking hammer in his hand.
