"The most difficult ghost story in the 'business district' … There might be other problems that I haven't considered."
When the employees lining up outside the gate of the general's mansion had all left the underground area after 'hanging themselves'.
Mia was the leader.
Han Dong and Abel accompanied her.
The three of them entered the mansion through the front door … Wen Li sneaked to the underground tunnel, preparing to cut off the connection between the underground area and the surface area.
Inside the mansion.
Even though the main mansion was dilapidated and there were large amounts of blood stains in the corridors and sliding doors, the whole mansion was still well-preserved.
Not far from the main mansion was the shallow pool mentioned in the clues.
There was a large tree with a crooked neck growing in the pool, and such a structure was very suitable for 'hanging' … In fact, when the party looked directly at the tree, they even had a brief suicidal thought in their minds.
Both Miya and Abel were stunned for a moment. The body hair of the insects and animals grew slightly on the surface of their bodies, and sweat dripped down from their foreheads.
However … Han Dong's focus was different.
When Han Dong stepped into the mansion, most of his attention was on the main mansion.
This was because the little magic eye seemed to have seen something in the dark corners of the building … Furthermore, there were occasionally strange bloody handprints on the paper doors.
The whole building exuded an indescribable evil aura.
At this time … crying came from under the locust tree.
Waves of cold air spread out from the shallow pool, even forming a layer of ice around it.
A woman in a pale pink kimono with white borders and a Hannya mask appeared under the tree … Her body was both real and intangible, and normal attacks would not be able to hurt her.
From her smooth skin, she did not look like a middle-aged woman over fifty.
At this time, Han Dong made an unusual decision.
His palm landed lightly on his partner's shoulder.
"Abel … help Mia and fight this female owner! I have to go inside the building to take a look. "
If this was the first time they worked together, Abel would definitely reject Han Dong's suggestion.
After all, the final destination of the ghost story was here, and it was unwise to split up at this time.
However, Abel, who had worked together before, trusted his decision completely.
Abel's furry ears twitched as if he heard something. "There seems to be a strange sound coming from inside the building, you have to be careful."
Han Dong gave an 'OK' sign.
"Don't worry … I'm a team."
At this time.
Boom!
Loud noises came from all the entrances of the underground area.
Wen Li only needed a light hammer to completely collapse the small passageway that connected to the dormitory above ground.
This noise attracted the attention of the crying woman under the locust tree … When she turned her head, she realized that there was one less person in the general's residence.
However, she did not care.
The only thing that caught her attention was the Demon Blade that was wrapped in spider silk on Mia's back.
The demon sword that was stolen years ago had finally returned.
…
In the corridor outside of the main building.
Han Dong stood in front of the sliding door covered in bloody handprints.
Splash …
He suddenly slid the door open.
In an instant, he caught a glimpse of a naked figure on the opposite side of the ceiling. The figure was crawling away quickly … The presence of the figure was completely different from the workers at the hot spring hotel.
"As expected … Although the main focus of the ghost story is the female owner, the general's residence is also an important factor that cannot be ignored.
The Japanese Bushido spirit regards' Seppuku 'as the most noble way to die.
However, when the enemy attacked the mansion, the female owner did not end her life by seppuku.
Instead, she chose to 'commit suicide by hanging' and used the head of her family and her favorite katana as an evil ritual.
It is very possible that the female owner has been practicing this kind of evil sorcery for a long time.
'A locust tree that grows in a shallow pool.'
'Over 50 years old, but with smooth skin and extraordinary swordsmanship.'
All of these prove this point.
I even suspect that the female owner, Yuki, has already taken over the general and become the real owner of the mansion.
The real secret of the general's residence should be hidden here … If I can find it, I might be able to completely eradicate the 'ghost story'. "
Just as Han Dong made a series of speculations in his mind.
In the corner of the room, a black shadow slowly formed.
"Who is it?!"
Han Dong was ready to use the ability related to his tentacles.
However, in the next second, Han Dong slowly pulled back. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The black shadows gathered and slowly walked out of the shadows. It wasn't the dead soul in the general's mansion, nor was it the clown Pennywise in the illusion.
It was …
"Ah-ha-san?!"
That's right, the person who walked out from the corner was the owner of the 'shop', Mr. Ah-ha-san.
Han Dong, who was originally calculating and analyzing the incident at the general's residence, was suddenly interrupted by Mr. Ah-ha-san's appearance. It was as if a large program had been added to his computer.
This made Han Dong's thoughts a bit messy.
"Ah-ha-san! From the start, I could see that you were completely different from the [Death Row Prisoners] that were sent here.
You actually ignored the main ghost story outside and came to the crucial building alone.
This [General's Residence] has always been troublesome to deal with. I have to manage many shops at the same time, so I rarely have time to deal with this.
The last time I came here, I only managed to steal the demon blade.
I once gave the demon blade to many groups of prisoners to deal with, but they were all useless. They all died before they could even get to the bottom of the building. I even needed to retrieve the demon blade.
However, this time, my feeling is not bad! You are completely different from those useless prisoners.
Since you've discovered the root of the problem, plus there aren't many customers in the shop today … let's deal with the [General's Residence] together, Ah-ha-san?
If you can really deal with it, I can consider giving you a discount on the items in the shop! "
Things suddenly changed.
Mr. Ah-ha-san offered to cooperate.
Just as Han Dong was hesitating, a system announcement came.
[Hidden Event – General's Residence (Triggered)]
Introduction Requirement: When your team went deep into the ghost story, you accidentally discovered the secret of the General's Residence.
Within the theme park's business area, the General's Residence is not completely under your control. You need to help Mr. Ah-ha-san expose the secret of the General's Residence so that Mr. Ah-ha-san can fully control this area.
Trigger Condition: Enter the General's Residence alone before the female owner, [Chi], dies.
Event Type: Assistance
Completion Reward: Increase intimacy level with Mr. Ah-ha-san (Hint: By improving your relationship with Mr. Ah-ha-san, you can enjoy the shop's exclusive discount and can even purchase some rare items.)
Do you want to accept the hidden event?
"Yes!"
Han Dong was shocked as well.
He did not expect that his exploration alone would trigger an unexpected hidden event … and at the same time, it would bring out the mysterious Mr. Ah-ha-san.
This made Han Dong curious about Mr. Ah-ha-san's real position in the theme park.
Seeing that the cooperation was successful, Mr. Ah-ha-san pulled out a layer of black shadow from his pocket and stuck it on the wall of the General's Residence.
In an instant, the black shadow spread out and sealed off the entire building, preventing anyone from entering or leaving.
The current hidden event had to be completed by Han Dong alone.
"Let's go … young man."
