Chapter 124 Glass Skywalk shuhaige.net

The haunted house has ten rules.

This number is already comparable to the number of visitors' notices at the entrance, indirectly proving that danger lurks ahead.

but……

"The plot development is so lacking! Mr. Horror? Is that the name of a villain in some cartoon?" Yin Zhu couldn't resist the urge to vent and pulled Mu Yunsheng aside to complain: "If the amusement park is this perfunctory, how can anyone be willing to come and play in the future? What's wrong with this manager? Doesn't he understand the importance of ceremony?"

Upon hearing Yin Zhu mention the words "supervisor," the dejected Wei Chuxing subconsciously looked over, only to meet Yin Zhu's ambiguous gaze.

Jing Gui naturally noticed Yin Zhu's overly obvious actions and whispered to Yin Zhu, "Don't go too far, or the amusement park manager will get angry and cause you trouble."

Just then, Mu Yunsheng nervously tugged at Yin Zhu's sleeve: "Don't talk nonsense."

“Well, I think a complete story background makes it easier for tourists to immerse themselves. With such a perfunctory setting, it’s hard for me to feel any fear,” Yin Zhuqiang argued. “Sin City definitely didn’t open an amusement park just to make money. If you want to have fun, you still need to put some effort into the preparation.”

Hearing this, a nearby tourist couldn't help but interject, "I'm telling you, don't make it harder for everyone. I heard this haunted house is a death sentence."

……well?

Yin Zhu gave the tourists next to him a serious look, which made them a little uneasy: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I think what you said makes a lot of sense. It's true that haunted houses that aren't scary are easier to pass. I was just being nosy. I used to be a haunted house designer, so I subconsciously looked at it from a professional perspective. I'm really sorry." Yin Zhu nodded heavily, which, combined with her tense expression, made her look particularly comical.

Jing Gui seriously suspected that Yin Zhu was talking nonsense again.

Such a serious answer and apology made the tourists next to them a little embarrassed: "Well, it's okay, we still need to work together."

"Speaking of which, are all of us going into the haunted house together?"

Yin Zhu quickly turned her attention to the next question.

The roller coaster that takes tourists into the haunted house has six carriages, each with four people. Since Yin Zhu, Mu Yunsheng and Wei Chuxing are in a group of three, their carriage was the only one that was not full. In addition, due to the various accidents that have caused some tourists to lose their lives, there are still 11 people alive, which means that the survival rate is close to 50%.

As mentioned earlier, one-third more NPCs survived this time than before, so there are a lot of tourists right now.

To create a more immersive atmosphere, most haunted houses don't allow too many visitors to enter at once; otherwise, they would be just like any other tourist attraction—"the most beautiful scenery is the people."

Therefore, Yin Zhu's question made Wei Chuxing, who was standing in the corner feeling sad, even more depressed.

In the past, only 6-8 tourists would survive when entering the haunted house. The haunted house also had many mechanisms inside to disperse them, ensuring that there would not be too many people in each area, making it easier for the eerie creatures inside to prey on the fearful tourists.

In a panic, visitors may forget the rules and act irrationally, ultimately becoming "new employees" of the haunted house.

But once there are a lot of people... the sense of terror isn't as strong!

Wei Chuxing couldn't help but comfort himself, thankfully only a third of the people survived. If all 23 people had been in the haunted house, he was afraid that Yin Zhu would have burst out laughing at the sight.

After all, this former kindergarten teacher from the sunny and cheerful kindergarten seems to have extremely low emotional intelligence. She would never give herself any face if she had the chance to make fun of her. If she were to confirm that she was the manager of Daydream Amusement Park, she would probably run over and burst into laughter right next to her ear.

Wei Chuxing was overthinking it. Although Yin Zhu liked to court death, she wouldn't go so far as to do that.

However, Wei Chuxing was quite accurate in one point: Yin Zhu did indeed like to offend people and then make up for it later, deceiving them into thinking that she was genuinely doing what was best for them: "With so many of us, it's easy to be replaced silently once we're inside, so I suggest that we go in in batches, which will make it easier to keep an eye on our teammates."

Yin Zhu gave a seemingly reasonable reason, but in reality, she was biased towards the amusement park: "Each map can be viewed for 30 minutes. We can have six people in a group, with a new group going in every 25 minutes. This way, the people inside can leave the information they find to the next group. Even if they don't find it, they can let the next group explore it with peace of mind."

Breaking the tourists down into smaller groups was exactly what Wei Chuxing wanted, and everyone in charge had to thank her.

Tourists naturally sensed something was wrong: "What if the group that went in got wiped out, or was replaced after being wiped out?"

"That's why we need to enter separately. If the first group goes overtime without any problems, it just means they have a problem." Yin Zhu's reasoning seemed very convincing. "People's energy is limited, and it's impossible to pay attention to everyone at the same time. If everyone goes in together, it's hard to be discovered if someone is secretly replaced. The imposter will follow everyone's actions, and it will easily turn into a werewolf game. Even if the six people are split up, they can be divided into two groups, which is the safest number."

As for not acting together and being defeated one by one, that's another matter entirely.

Yin Zhu certainly wouldn't say this, because she believed that in previous trips, it was impossible for tourists not to suggest going together. But since no one ultimately came out, it meant that going together must have other hidden dangers.

After discussing it for a while, Yin Zhu volunteered to be among the first to go in, and that was basically settled.

Yin Zhu walked at the front, and the staff member who had been pretending to be invisible pushed open the door to the haunted house checkpoint.
