"The director is trapped inside the movie? That should be a ghost story, right? "
Chen Ge felt like this was within his scope of work, so he could not ignore it.
He raised his head to look at the clock on the wall. It was already 2: 30 am. "It takes half an hour to get to Yong Ling Mountain from here. It's too late. I should go tomorrow."
"I just don't have enough time. The deadline for the School of the Afterlife mission is coming soon, but I don't even have a Red Specter that I can use. I should go take a look at the crew first. It'll be best if I can help the author complete his wish and get the suicide operator to join Haunted House as soon as possible. "
After he was fully prepared, Chen Ge switched off his phone and went to bed early, which was rare for him.
At 8 am the next day, Chen Ge was woken up by knocking on the window. He opened his eyes blurrily and heard Xiao Gu's voice coming from outside the window.
"The boss probably ran out again in the middle of the night. Let's wait at the door."
"Does the boss leave at night often?" It was Zhang Jingjiu who spoke. He was curious about Chen Ge.
"Let me put it this way. The social media that we often use has a real-time walking function. In any case, when I wake up every morning, the boss will have already walked ten thousand steps." Xiao Gu's tone was calm. "But today is strange. Since last night, the boss has only walked three thousand steps. Could something have happened to him?"
"If the boss hears that, he'll definitely beat you up." Xu Wan's voice drifted into the room. All the employees seemed to have arrived.
"Do you think I would do something like beat up my employees?" Chen Ge crawled out of bed, pulled back the thick curtains, and pushed open the window of the staff breakroom. "At most, I will deduct their wages."
"Boss!"
The four employees stood next to the window. They seemed to have been there for a long time.
"Wait a minute, I'll go open the door for you now." Chen Ge lowered his head to look at his phone. It was already 8: 40 am. He had been too sleepy the night before, so he had gone to bed without setting the alarm.
Pulling open the Haunted House's security door, Chen Ge called the four employees into the dressing room and helped them with their make-up.
"It just so happens that all of you are here. Let's have a simple morning meeting while we put on makeup." Chen Ge skillfully applied the make-up for his employees. His movements were smooth, and there was not a trace of a straight man to be seen. "Xu Wan and Xiao Gu, you two are the veterans, so you'll be responsible for the two scenes on the ground. Our Haunted House has a horror rating system, and many visitors are unable to explore the higher-rated scenarios, so your mission is the most important. You represent the face of our Haunted House and affect the first impression visitors have of our Haunted House. "
"Don't worry. Leave it to me and Sister Xu Wan. Everything will be fine." Xiao Gu patted his chest and guaranteed. His enthusiastic and optimistic personality made it easy for him to get along with the newcomers.
"Scissors and Zhang Jingjiu, the two of you will be responsible for the underground scenario. Just do your job. If anything happens to the visitors, remember to call me at the first notice." Chen Ge shared a look with Zhang Jingjiu and Scissors. "The difficulty of the underground scenario is very high. The two of you will have to train your acting skills."
"Understood." Scissors and Zhang Jingjiu had followed Chen Ge into Li Wan City before, so they knew what Chen Ge was trying to say.
"One last thing, I will now officially hand the spare key to the Haunted House to Xu Wan. If you run into a situation where I'm not around, follow my orders to maintain the Haunted House." Chen Ge handed the spare key to Xu Wan and looked at the girl in the mirror. "If there's a problem with the underground scenario, go and ask Xu Wan. If Xu Wan still can't solve it, go and find Director Luo from New Century Park. Don't go to anyone else, and don't trust them easily."
Before Xu Wan could answer, Chen Ge stood up. "I'll be responsible for the underground scenario. Now, Scissors and Zhang Jingjiu, come with me. I still have many things to teach you."
After Chen Ge's group walked away, Xiao Gu realized that Xu Wan was still spacing out looking at the mirror. "Sis, it's time to go. The visitors will arrive soon."
"Yes, I know." Xu Wan gripped the key in her hand and slowly tightened her grip like she was afraid of losing this important thing.
Chen Ge led Zhang Jingjiu and Scissors into the underground scenario and stopped outside one of the rooms in the underground morgue.
He knocked lightly on the door, and an old man in a white coat walked out. His hair was white, but his body was straight like a pine tree growing on the cliff.
"This old man is called Wei Jiuqin. He is the best doctor at our Haunted House. If one day I'm not around and you run into something you can't solve, you can come to him. He will help you." Doctor Wei was the oldest, had the most experience, and his personality was unquestionable. Of all the employees, he was the most suitable person to handle the situation.
"Why are you suddenly bringing this up?" Doctor Wei felt like something was wrong, so he asked.
"It's nothing, just a backup plan."
"Kid, if there's anything on your mind, you have to tell me! This old man is very comfortable staying at your place, especially since I can see my old students and educate them like before. "Doctor Wei rarely joked, but this time, he seemed to be purposely trying to make Chen Ge happier.
"Don't worry." Chen Ge returned to the surface. After the visitors started to enter the Haunted House, he led Scissors and Zhang Jingjiu on a tour of the underground scenario and introduced them to most of the ghosts.
Scissors and Zhang Jingjiu were so shocked during the 'tour' that they could not close their mouths. There were students, teachers, doctors, patients, and even some special workers. It was like an underground town.
"What you're seeing now is just a small part of the underground scenario. The whole scenario is very, very big, and it was built by my parents over ten years." Chen Ge told Scissors and Zhang Jingjiu many things that they should not do before sending them into Li Wan City.
"Only when they are my best friends will I trust them to become my employees. Otherwise, it will be too hard to hire new people in the future." Chen Ge was trying his best to train Scissors and Zhang Jingjiu. When they could handle things on their own, he would have more time to do other things.
Exiting the underground scenario, when Chen Ge reached the entrance, he was called by Xu Shu. "Chen Ge, Director Luo is looking for you."
"Looking for me?"
"Yes, be careful. There are outsiders around." Xu Shu reminded him softly before going back to selling tickets.
Chen Ge ran to the office building. Once he pushed open the door, he heard laughter coming from inside.
Director Luo was chatting happily with a middle-aged man. Those who did not know better would have thought that they were good friends.
"Xiao Chen, come and sit." Director Luo was very friendly toward Chen Ge. He stood up voluntarily, and when his back was facing the middle-aged man, he made a gesture. However, his voice was still bright and clear. "This is CEO Bai. I've introduced him to you before. He has some questions to ask you."
"CEO Bai?" Chen Ge understood immediately. The visitor was not friendly.
"There's no need to be so formal. We've met several times already. I'm here because someone asked me to, so I'm too embarrassed." CEO Bai also had a smile on his face. "Earlier, there was a haunted house in Xin Hai that came to visit us. In the end, all of their employees were sent to the hospital because of the scare. Their boss is a friend of mine, so he wanted me to come over to ask how Boss Chen managed to do that. They are all professional Haunted House actors. They have been in this business for five to six years, and they can be considered the best in the market. "
"That's why you're here?" Chen Ge was silent for a while before turning to CEO Bai. "Perhaps it's because they are too weak. I don't think my Haunted House is that scary, but it varies from person to person. Why don't you come into my Haunted House to experience it?"
