I'm Investigating妖怪Cases in the Human Realm

As a fake half-demon, Yue Jiuling feels that living in the human realm is actually pretty good. However, this is only true if she can retrieve her original body and separated soul. There's no c...

Chapter 223 The Secret Chamber

Because they encountered a girl who could see ghosts in the amusement park, in order not to scare her anymore, Yue Jiu Nian and the others stopped acting as ghost hunters and just wanted to get out of the haunted house as soon as possible to find Yue Jiu Yue and leave the haunted house to go play somewhere else.

"Huh? Where are Nine Stars and September?"

Yue Jiuzai was looking at the exit ahead at a bend, but she didn't see Yue Jiuxing or Yue Jiuyue there. She turned around and asked Yue Jiujie at another exit, "Did you see them over there?"

"No, we don't even know which exit it went to."

Yue Jiujie shook his head and said.

Because the haunted house had more than one exit, but four or five, and some of them were fake, they split up to find the exits in order to find Yue and Jiuyue.

However, the three of them searched all the exits but still couldn't find Yue Jiuxing and Yue Jiuyue, which made them feel a little strange.

Yue Jiu Nian took out her phone to call the two missing people. She said, "Could it be that they've already gone to play other games? They've completely forgotten to meet up with us."

"Maybe so. You should call and ask them where they are."

"Aaaaaah!!!"

Just as Yue Jiu Nian was about to dial, she suddenly heard someone screaming loudly again. She didn't need to turn around to know that it was those people who were frightened by the fake ghost, but she didn't care and continued to dial.

Yue Jiujie turned around to look at the place where the screams came from. It turned out to be at a fake exit. Two people were about to push open the door to go out, but as soon as they pushed the door open, two disheveled female ghosts hanging upside down suddenly fell from the ceiling. One of the female ghosts was covered in red dye, and her whole body was covered in blood. The visual effect was very shocking!

Seeing that some people were frightened, Yue Jiujie said with a bit of a laugh, "This design is pretty good, it's full of fear. I think they were scared this time, and they probably won't dare to come and play again next time."

At this moment, Yue Jiu Nian had already gotten through to Yue Jiu Yue on the phone. She said to the person on the other end, "Where did you all go again? Didn't we agree to meet at the exit? Why can't I see you?"

On the other end of the phone, Yue Jiuyue was quiet. After answering, she didn't speak immediately, but waited a few seconds before whispering, "Shh~ We're playing in an escape room. Do you want to come and join us? It looks like a lot of fun~"

This haunted house isn't just a typical adventure level with a straight path to the end. It also includes escape rooms and games like hide-and-seek with ghosts. Right now, Yue Jiuyue and Yue Jiuxing have run off to play in those escape room games.

After learning where the two had gone, Yue Jiu Nian had no choice but to say, "Alright, which secret room are you in? Let's join in and have some fun."

"It's at 404, come quick!"

After Yue Jiuyue finished telling him the room number of the secret room, she hung up the phone. Yue Jiuyue and the others, who were planning to leave the haunted house, had no choice but to go find someone.

"They went to play escape room games in 404 in September. Let's go and take a look."

Yue Jiu Nian put away her phone and went back the way she came to find the secret room. She said, "I wonder how many people were playing with them. If another person who can see ghosts saw them, wouldn't they be scared to death again?"

"Haha~ There aren't that many people who can actually see ghosts. If everyone could see real ghosts while visiting haunted houses, these haunted houses probably wouldn't be able to stay open."

Yue Jiuzai laughed too. She reached out and pulled Yue Jiujie, saying, "By the way, you guys be careful not to let that girl see us again. I remember she seems to still be on the road behind us. I'm afraid we'll run into her again when we go back."

Just as Yue Jiuzai finished speaking, they encountered the group of girls who came up behind them. The girl who could see ghosts and was particularly timid immediately started screaming again when she saw the three floating 'ghosts'.

"Ahhh! A ghost!"

Yue Jiu Nian felt a headache coming on as soon as she saw the girl. She covered her ears and quickly floated past the girl, trying to get away from the dolphin-like sound.

She thought that if she just floated past quickly, everything would be fine. But when the girl saw her coming, she became even more frightened and screamed even louder. Finally, as she brushed past her, the girl rolled her eyes and fainted!

"Hmm, if we had known she was so easily scared, we should have just scared her into fainting so we wouldn't have had to put up with her screaming~"

Looking at the girl who had fainted from fright, was surrounded by her companions for concern, and was eventually carried out by the staff, Yue Jiuzai felt a little regretful.

Yue Jiujie chimed in, "Yeah, if we'd known it would be like this, we should have scared her senseless as soon as we walked in. That way, she wouldn't have even needed to come in, and the journey would have been so peaceful!"

Yue Jiu Nian was the culprit who frightened people into fainting, but she did not feel guilty. Instead, she had a good feeling that "I did a good deed".

She said happily, "That's great! She's finally free, and we're free too! Hahaha~"

Room 404 was not far from the exit, and Yue Jiu Nian quickly found it.

It was an old wooden door with peeling paint. The door number was written crookedly in red paint: 404. After finding the door to the secret room, Yue Jiu Nian waved to her friends behind her and said, "This should be it. Let's go in."
