"Where is he?"
"What's going on?"
The dormitory door was half-open. Liu Gang looked down the empty corridor and sucked in a cold breath.
The male assistant was not brave, but he was not a coward either.
"What did he see when he was alone?"
The same question appeared in everyone's mind. None of them knew why the male assistant had run away. If this was not a planned scenario, then there was a big problem.
"Brother Gang, this brother of yours is a bit of a coward." Lan Dong stood next to Liu Gang, and his eyes were filled with confusion. At the time, they had been hiding inside the dormitory, and the assistant could have knocked on the door for help, so why did he run down the corridor?
Was it because he was too afraid that his brain was dominated by fear, and he lost his basic judgment?
Or was the thing that scared him at the door?
A layer of goosebumps appeared on Lan Dong's neck. He looked around, but he did not see anything scary.
"The phone is still here." Ah Li was about to pick up the phone when he saw a piece of paper with blood stains next to it. "Look!"
He picked up the paper, and a few sentences were scrawled on it. 'There is a hidden path behind one of the mirrors on the eastern and western campuses. We can leave the campuses through the hidden path, but after we left, we realized …'
"We didn't clear the game, so how did we get the hint?" Ah Li held the paper. "Is this message purposely misleading us? Mirrors are important in many places, especially when the sky is dark. We shouldn't wander around mirrors. "
"Brother Gang's assistant's sacrifice is not completely worthless. At least, it has revealed something important." Lan Dong accepted the paper. "The boss has been watching us, ready to make his move at any moment. The message on the paper should be real. We're livestreaming it, so the boss wouldn't have tampered with the game hint. After all, his Haunted House still needs to earn money in the future. If he purposely used the hint to trick the visitors, it would cause them to be disgusted. "
Before the camera, Lan Dong's analysis was clear and logical. He wanted to divert everyone's attention.
However, he had underestimated the impact of the male assistant's disappearance on everyone there, including Liu Gang's livestream. The whole screen was filled with question marks.
"Keep this note well. Later on in the exploration, if we see a mirror, we'll try to push it together." Liu Gang forced himself to remain calm. This was the first time he had heard his assistant scream like that. It was as if his life was threatened, and he was about to die.
"Since we got the hint, there's no need for us to play the remaining two games. Let's go look for information related to Mr. Bai and meet up with Bai Buhui and the others at the art club." Lan Dong didn't dare to be careless anymore. After all, it had only been a few seconds, and a living adult had disappeared just like that. It was indeed a little scary.
They hadn't seen how the male assistant had disappeared, so they didn't know why he had disappeared. Because they didn't know, they were even more anxious.
"Let's go."
Just like that, the team of six became five. With so many viewers watching him, Liu Gang had to pretend to be relaxed.
As he walked down the dark corridor, strange noises came from the abandoned male dormitory. It sounded like a mouse crawling past, or something accidentally rubbing against the wall that was about to fall off.
The weak light above them shone on the doors on both sides, and occasionally, there were names written in red on the walls.
"This appears to be a student dormitory. Mr. Bai probably lives somewhere else." Lan Dong and Ah Li walked ahead. When they reached the end of the corridor, they realized to their surprise that there was a staircase that led deeper.
"There's another floor underground …"
The light barely reached the lowest floor. The five of them stood at the corner of the staircase, and none of them dared to be the first to go down.
The rusted banister shook slightly like someone was climbing up the stairs. Lan Dong took out his phone and shone it downward. Something seemed to be reflecting light in the darkness.
"Is it a mirror?"
"Don't forget, eyes can reflect light as well."
"Why don't we stay here?" The only girl in Lan Dong's group spoke up. She tugged lightly on Lan Dong's shirt. "Do you remember the last time we went to investigate? Before the accident, Brother Four said he saw a pair of red eyes in the dark …"
"Don't mention that coward to me. Ever since he left, the number of views of our videos has increased exponentially. We were dragged down by him before." There were four people in Lan Dong's group, but one of them had chosen to leave due to some reason.
"Some people are easily influenced by those things. Brother Four is just being nice." The quiet girl hesitated. She knew that Liu Gang was livestreaming, so she left some face for Lan Dong.
"Girl, there are no ghosts in this world, only people pretending to be ghosts." Liu Gang placed his hand on the girl's arm. "I don't believe in ghosts because I've seen many people worse than ghosts, like that Haunted House boss."
The girl pulled her arm back and stopped talking.
"This place doesn't even have a sign. Why don't we stay here?"
Ah Li suggested softly, and Liu Gang wanted to find a way out. "Yes, the lights on the third floor are not installed. Perhaps the Haunted House is not open to the public. It's not that I don't dare go, but it's probably not ready yet."
Liu Gang communicated with the viewers in the livestream, but to his surprise, the direction of the chat changed. Many people wanted to see what was on the third floor, and many of the accounts even had Ye Xiaoxin's fan tag.
The male assistant being scared away did make Liu Gang nervous, but he reminded himself many times that this was a Haunted House, and other than scaring people, there was nothing else to do. He was livestreaming, and the other party could not physically touch him. If they did, then the Haunted House would not be able to operate anymore.
They would not be physically injured; they would just be scared. It was not like they would lose a piece of flesh.
With that in mind, Liu Gang calmed down. "If you want to see it, I'll bring you down. It's not a big deal."
He turned on the flashlight on his phone and had Lan Dong and Ah Li walk in front. He and Xiao Chun stood in the middle, and the cameraman followed at the back.
"Many school ghost stories are related to the stairs. The corners of the stairs are filled with Yin energy, and it's where many evil things hide." Lan Dong maintained his composure. He moved down the stairs step by step, and the flashlight shone on the path ahead. When the light reached the corner, a child's face appeared.
"Don't … don't panic!" he shouted. His shaking hands pushed on his glasses and aimed the phone at the corner of the stairs.
There was a child squatting in the corner. His face was leaning on his shoulders like his neck was broken.
"It's fine. It's just a mannequin. It looks very real." Lan Dong carefully approached the mannequin and realized that there were many dirty balls of paper around the child.
He picked up a random paper ball, and it was written with a long message.
"That day, it was my shift. When I was going to empty the trash, I saw a child squatting at the corner of the stairs. His neck was very unnatural. At the time, just like you, I walked to his side and picked up the paper ball that he dropped."
