To Gu Xizhou, a few minutes passed in the blink of an eye, but to other people, it felt like a century.
To Zou Jue and the tall man, five minutes of gaming time was as long as winter. At first, they wanted to observe the other cars, but the ghosts lining up at the entrance didn't allow them to do so.
These ghosts stared at the two of them with their greenish-purple faces, as if they could pounce on them and tear them apart at any moment. The two of them could only hold their breaths and drive the bumper car very slowly, trying to find a pattern during this period of time.
Zou Jue was worried and complained, "If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have teamed up with you."
The tall man looked at Zou Jue unhappily, but he didn't argue with Zou Jue.
He said to Zou Jue, "I'll drive. Hurry up and say something nice to your partner. Look pitiful. Women are easily soft-hearted, and if they do, they'll tell us the pattern."
Zou Jue responded when he heard that. He shouted for the girl to beg for mercy from across half the field. He clasped his hands together and revealed an innocent expression. He said to the girl, "Xiao Lu, please help Brother Zou. I also helped you when you were choosing your seat on the trojan horse. Can you forgive Brother Zou? Brother Zou was afraid just now … that's why he teamed up with others!"
Zou Jue looked very pitiful. His hair was messy, his face was pale, and he looked like he was going to faint at any moment.
The girl sitting next to Mei Xiao hesitated when she heard Zou Jue's words. When they were choosing their seat on the merry-go-round, Zou Jue reminded her to choose the horse that had eaten people. She had done her duty as a companion, but when she thought about Zou Jue's betrayal … she felt conflicted.
Mei Xiao saw the girl looking at her and she pursed her lips, "Help if you want, but you better think about it carefully. There are some people you can't offend."
As Mei Xiao spoke, her gaze fell on Si Yu, who was driving the bumper car. She looked deeply at Si Yu and Gu Xizhou's backs. She was obviously implying something. Those who offended him were done for.
The girl was stunned, but she nodded firmly, "… I won't tell them the pattern!"
Zou Jue saw that his partner was already tempted, but after hearing Mei Xiao's words, she decided to ignore him. He looked anxiously at the tall man driving, "What should I do? She's ignoring me! Where's your partner? "
The tall man pointed his finger at the only woman, "Zou Jue's eye, she's the eye's eye."
Zou Jue wanted to cry but had no tears. He felt that there must be something wrong with his brain for him to be captivated by the guy in front of him. He actually agreed to team up with him just now.
The tall man hesitated for a moment. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said to Zou Jue, "We will follow behind them. Even if we die, we will die together!"
"Okay." Zou Jue couldn't think of a better idea. The two of them drove behind Ye Shu and Ma Qi's bumper cars, who were closest to them.
Ye Shu naturally noticed that there was a large tail behind them. She glanced sideways at the two people behind them and smiled. She drove around the venue for a while, then suddenly gave up on the black bumper car in front of her. She turned around and followed behind a green bumper car.
"What are you doing? Didn't Si Yu ask us to follow the black bumper car? "Ma Qi's heart skipped a beat as he asked anxiously.
Ye Shu's eyes were glazed over, as if he hadn't come back to his senses.
Si Yu didn't want to explain to his teammates what the path of death was, so he just told them to follow the color of the bumper car so that they wouldn't get into trouble.
After Ye Shu changed directions, the tall man hurriedly changed directions and followed the path that Ye Shu was taking.
Ma Qi hurriedly reminded Ye Shu that they were following the wrong car. Suddenly, he heard two extremely tragic screams coming from behind him.
The team members subconsciously turned to look in the direction of the sound. They saw that the headless body was still in the car. The hand that was holding the steering wheel was twitching slightly, and the artery on the neck was spurting out a rain of blood. Blood splattered out and covered the entire field like a fountain.
The two heads that died with their eyes wide open were hit by the passing cars in the bumper car field.
Ma Qi swallowed his saliva when he saw the scene behind him. He turned around and saw that Ye Shu was out of breath and looked like he was about to faint.
"Oh my god, I just got distracted and followed the wrong car …" Ye Shu clutched her chest, her hands trembling slightly. She looked very haggard. She seemed to be scared out of her wits and even started to cry. As she cried, she turned around and followed the other black bumper cars in the arena. Her movements were steady, accurate, and without any hesitation.
Ma Qi was speechless. Was she really scared or was she faking it?
Seeing this, Si Yu said calmly, "See, it's not difficult. Someone else figured it out like me."
Gu Xizhou took a deep look at Ye Shu, who was pretending to be trembling beside Ma Qi. She fell silent … Only those who had not figured out the pattern would believe that she was just too nervous.
The tall man snatched Ye Shu's seat. It was normal for Ye Shu to mess with him …
However, Gu Xizhou could only say that this was a one-off buy one get one free. He was also a ruthless person!
When the music ended, Gu Xizhou and the others got out of the car. This time, Mei Xiao found a piece of essay paper in their bumper cars. As for Zou Jue's death, none of them mentioned it.
— —
"My Dad."
"My dad is very generous. He always gives me pocket money to buy food. He says that boys need to eat well to grow taller.
My dad loves me very much. Sometimes, he comes home very late. My mom says that it's because my dad is very busy.
My dad doesn't make breakfast for me in the morning or coax me to sleep at night. However, he is the best dad in the world! "
— —
The content of the essay was hard to explain. It was exactly the same as "My Mom" on the previous piece of paper. No one knew where to start complaining.
"What kind of clue is this?" After reading the content of the second piece of paper, Lu An frowned and could not help but complain, "This doesn't seem to be any different from the previous piece of paper!"
Si Yu glanced at it and did not say anything.
After everyone had read it, Gu Xizhou took the piece of paper. He held it and looked at it for a while before saying, "This piece of paper has been wiped many times."
He pointed at one of the boxes and said, "Look, the paper here has been scratched. There are also traces of it being wiped at the front."
When the group heard Gu Xizhou's words, they gathered around to take a closer look. They stumbled over some key words such as "don't care about me", "hate me", and "play mahjong". These words had some handwriting marks. Obviously, this piece of paper had been altered.
The boy obviously did not like his father.
After riding the bumper cars, the tickets in their hands did not change. This meant that the boy was still in the queue. They split into two groups and searched for the boy.
Gu Xizhou was walking down the street when he heard the sound of chains around him. His brows furrowed. The chains fell to the ground and clanked.
Gu Xizhou looked around. Following the sound, he saw a boy holding a balloon at the ticket gate of the Haunted House.
The boy was wearing a white printed shirt and knee-length jeans. His face was unnaturally pale. However, from afar, he looked no different from a normal child. Only his skin was fairer.
Gu Xizhou pointed at the boy holding the red balloon and asked his friends who had seen the boy before, "Is that him?"
Hearing Gu Xizhou's question, Ah Ke looked in the direction of his finger. Her eyes met the boy's, and her eyelids twitched. "It's him!"
The boy grimaced and followed the other ghosts into the Haunted House.
Gu Xizhou chased after the boy, but Si Yu stopped him. "Wait!"
"Ah?" Gu Xizhou told Si Yu, "There's the sound of chains on his body. The door is on his body!"
Hearing Gu Xizhou, Si Yu's eyelids twitched, and he looked at Gu Xizhou intently.
"I told you before that I can sometimes hear the sound of chains! It's on his body! "Gu Xizhou was afraid that Si Yu did not get what he meant, so he quickly explained.
Si Yu nodded and pulled Gu Xizhou to the side. "You said the door is on his body, so we can't go in so easily!"
"Why?" Gu Xizhou was confused. "I'm not afraid of ghosts. I just hate those rules."
"Do you remember the kindergarten world?"
Gu Xizhou nodded.
"White lines of death, ghosts that get caught playing hide-and-seek," Si Yu said lightly. "Children have more imagination than adults, and they always have some strange ideas … For example, the merry-go-round eats people, or the bumper cars that go the wrong way will kill people. A Haunted House is a place where their imagination can be fully unleashed."
Si Yu's words made everyone lose the courage to chase after the boy. However, they had no choice but to enter the Haunted House because the words' Haunted House (0/23) 'had appeared on their tickets.
Soon, the other companions saw the words on the back of the ticket and hurried over. After confirming that everyone was present, Si Yu looked at the time on the digital clock. It was 5: 32. There were still more than two hours until 8: 00.
Gu Xizhou repeated the same trick. With the VIP ticket in his hand, he walked into the office, found the ghost worker, and gave the ghost a good beating.
The ghost in the Haunted House, whose soul was crying, looked at Gu Xizhou with tears in his eyes …
Gu Xizhou looked at its pitiful eyes and winked at it. "If you had agreed earlier, I wouldn't have hit you. Plus, as long as we can clear the Haunted House, you'll be able to reincarnate sooner, right?"
The ghost hugged its head with its hands and stared at Gu Xizhou for a moment. It seemed to agree with Gu Xizhou's words. It accepted its fate and followed Gu Xizhou out. Its expression was ugly, and its messy work clothes made it look like a 16-year-old girl who had just been defiled.
"The Haunted House in the Amusement Park of Death is a couple's Haunted House. There is a love story behind it. It means that if there is love, there will be victory. This Haunted House can accommodate ten people at a time. There are five different passages, and each passage can accommodate two people.
"It's very scary inside the Haunted House. I suggest that no matter what you encounter, don't separate."
It suddenly cracked a smile, and scarlet blood flowed down its cheeks. It looked very scary. Even Ma Qi couldn't help but swallow his saliva, let alone the girls. The girls were frightened by it and instinctively took two steps back. However, they didn't dare to scream. They could only look at the men in the group for help.
"What are you laughing at? You're scaring people! "Gu Xizhou suddenly said.
"Oh …" The Headless Ghost looked at Gu Xizhou without dignity and shut its mouth. After all, it had just been beaten up … and it was still in pain!
"Ten people at a time, two in a group, but we have 23 people." Gu Xizhou rubbed his forehead, turned to the Headless Ghost, and asked, "Can one person go in alone?"
The Headless Ghost smiled but didn't say anything. However, its smile was a little creepy.
Gu Xizhou was silent for a moment and asked in a different way, "Can people who have entered the Haunted House once enter a second time?"
"Yes."
As soon as the ghost answered Gu Xizhou, everyone looked at each other.
There were advantages and disadvantages to being the 23rd person. The advantage was that someone would help you figure out the situation inside. The disadvantage was that after someone really passed the Haunted House, would they be willing to accompany the person who was left behind? This meant that the danger was doubled!
The curly-haired girl who didn't have any teammates crossed her arms in front of her chest and hugged herself tightly. Her upper teeth were biting her lower body until they turned white.
"I … I'm willing to go in first. I don't want to be alone …"
This girl was obviously afraid that she would be left behind. She quickly expressed that she was willing to go in first to test the rules.
The ghost on the side looked at everyone silently. He glanced at the digital clock and said, "I've already told you the rules. There's still one minute. Have you decided which ten people will enter the Haunted House first?"
"The rules are very clear. Two people in a group, and don't split up after entering." Si Yu said calmly to everyone. As he spoke, he suddenly grabbed Gu Xizhou's arm and pulled him into the Haunted House. "Let's go in first."
"Huh?" Gu Xizhou was stunned.
What the hell?
Si Yu had already figured out the rules?
Before Gu Xizhou could wrap his head around it, Si Yu had already dragged him into the tunnel. The people outside, like Ye Shu, were thinking about the meaning of Si Yu's last sentence.
After entering the tunnel, Si Yu didn't let go. His wrist was still held, and it was slightly warm. In the dim light, Gu Xizhou blinked at Si Yu and asked, "How long are we going to hold hands like this?"
Under the light, Si Yu's deep eyes looked lazily at Gu Xizhou. "If everything goes according to plan, we'll have to walk out of this Haunted House hand in hand."
Gu Xizhou was stunned. Therefore, he asked, "Is this the rule?"
Si Yu said, "Did you turn a deaf ear to what I said outside?"
Gu Xizhou: "…"
Seeing the confusion on Gu Xizhou's face, Si Yu reminded him, "The ghost in the Haunted House has already told us all the rules, including the method to solve them."
"…" Gu Xizhou slapped his face. He felt like he was being insulted when he was with Si Yu. When he heard Si Yu's reminder, he finally understood.
The ghost might have listened to him and wanted to help them cheat, but due to the rules, it couldn't say it out loud.
'The Haunted House of Death Amusement Park is a couple's Haunted House. There is a love story behind it, and it means that love can overcome everything together.' This sentence translated to 'love can overcome everything.'
'The Haunted House is very scary. I suggest you stay together no matter what happens.' This sentence translated to 'Don't f * cking separate! You'll die if you separate! '
Gu Xizhou grumbled, "Can't it be more direct?"
When he said this, he didn't notice that Si Yu's gaze, intentionally or unintentionally, fell on him. Hearing his complaints, she felt that it was a little funny.
As the two of them spoke, a hand suddenly landed on Gu Xizhou's shoulder. The hand was pale and bloodless. Gu Xizhou turned his head and saw a woman's face close to his. Her red eyes were dripping blood, and the red blood dripped onto Gu Xizhou's collar.
When Gu Xizhou and the female ghost's eyes met, Si Yu reminded him, "Don't be afraid. We're holding hands. It can't hurt you."
"I know." Gu Xizhou smiled happily. His eyes were curved, and he was smiling. "That's good! I can hurt it. "Even without this rule, I can hurt it! And them!
Si Yu was confused. What the hell?
Gu Xizhou suddenly kicked the female ghost. At the same time, he suddenly waved his left hand and sent the female ghost flying with a punch. Before the female ghost could react, she was stepped on by Gu Xizhou on the ground. The entire ghost was stunned.
This person hit it!
Gu Xizhou's hard fists didn't feel good. However, the female ghost stared at Gu Xizhou and Si Yu's hands. Due to the rules, it couldn't hurt the person in front of it.
It gritted its teeth, but no matter how much it hated them, it couldn't change the rules. It had no choice. It was here to kill, but in the end, it could only choose to run away.
However, Gu Xizhou wouldn't let it go. He dragged Si Yu and chased after the female ghost.
In the dark, the female ghost hid in the closet. She bit on her handkerchief and cried.
These two people didn't make sense! They were using the rules to bully it!
"It was scared away by you."
"I just saw it running over here!"
"I found it!" Gu Xizhou looked around and finally found his target. He pointed at the white cloth at the corner of the closet and smiled at Si Yu.
Seeing the closet door open, the female ghost was stunned. Why did I find this crazy person!
Si Yu looked at Gu Xizhou who was happily hammering the ghost. "…"
Oh, so the rules could be used like this.
