The group of people in the monitoring room outside were completely dumbfounded.
However, what they saw was only surveillance footage, not the actual experience, and because the lighting inside the haunted house was dim, the surveillance was in night vision mode.
So everyone, including Director Zhong and General Manager Fang, only saw the NPC rushing towards the three customers.
Who knew that the male customer was incredibly bold? He casually said something, and then the NPC seemed to have a fit, screamed, and ran away.
"What happened? Did that kid drink before work today?"
The pot-bellied General Manager Fang was a little embarrassed and asked Xiao Yu, the only staff member left there, in a bad mood.
Fortunately, Xiaoyu wasn't troubled for long. Director Zhong seemed to have discovered something and said:
"Can we review the surveillance footage? I want to hear what this man just said!"
"Sure, sure, hurry up and play back that surveillance footage for Director Zhong! Turn the volume up, we couldn't hear anything clearly just now!"
Manager Fang didn't pursue the matter of the NPC's unusual behavior any further and gave instructions.
Soon, everyone present heard what Xu Lu said in the video surveillance footage, and then they looked at each other, dumbfounded once again.
Based on the current situation, the NPC in the surveillance footage appears to have been frightened before turning around and running away.
But... he's the professional scareerman, and he's even wearing a terrifying costume, yet he's being frightened by a customer.
It's unbelievable to even think about it.
"Director Zhong, what this man said was indeed a bit scary, but it shouldn't have scared our staff this much, right?"
Mr. Fang asked, somewhat puzzled.
Director Zhong pondered for a moment and said:
"No, it's probably because we weren't there, and the footage from the surveillance camera was too distorted to convey what the staff member actually felt."
But one thing is certain: the NPC you assigned probably won't be scared of this guest. On the contrary, I suspect the other NPCs will be quite startled too!
"Impossible! Director Zhong, you may not know, but our staff are all hand-picked people who are very brave, and they have also undergone special training."
"You see, their daily work involves working in haunted houses. If one person gets scared, that's a mistake. But for him to scare all my staff? I don't believe it!"
Mr. Fang said with great confidence.
Director Zhong didn't say anything more, he just smiled and said:
"Keep watching!"
Meanwhile, on the third floor of the haunted house, the NPC screamed and turned to run away.
Xu Lu smiled, patted the two girls who were still screaming, and told them that they were safe and didn't need to scream anymore!
"They escaped?"
Xiaomei and Xiaoxian were completely dumbfounded after hearing the explanation.
But since Xu Lu said he ran away, they could only believe it, since the scary NPC in front of them was indeed gone.
"I never expected that the third level would be popped up with real NPCs to scare people. It's terrifying!"
"Yeah, if Brother Xu hadn't been blocking my way, I would have been the first to run away!"
The two girls muttered to themselves, venting their fear.
Xu Lu didn't urge them. He waited until the two of them said they wanted to continue exploring before he continued, but this time he took the lead.
Now that he knew these NPCs were pretending to be ghosts to scare people, Xu Lu decided not to hold back. While others were pretending to be ghosts to scare people, he was pretending to be a ghost to scare 'ghosts'—it was all about the thrill!
...
"Hahaha, finally I heard a man scream! I didn't expect that pretty boy to be so handsome, but his screams are so awful, like a pig being slaughtered!"
"Well, that's fine too. Now those two pretty girls will probably dislike that guy even more after hearing this. Hurry up and come here, I can't wait to scare them!"
The other NPC perked up instantly after hearing that scream.
Before long, footsteps could be heard.
However, this NPC, like the previous one, was somewhat surprised by the multiple footsteps, but he quickly overlooked the reason.
When the footsteps finally reached his room, the NPC tiptoed out from the corner.
He had already seen two pretty young ladies standing in front of him, but he was a little puzzled as to why both of them were covering their ears with their hands.
"Haha, maybe if I tap them on the back, they'll both jump into my arms in fright! But when they see what I look like, they'll be even more terrified!"
Thinking this to himself, the NPC gently raised his hand with long fingernails.
However, before he could even pat the shoulders of the two young ladies in front of him, his own shoulder was grabbed.
Which guy came to share a room with me?
Didn't we agree that I would stay here alone?
The NPC thought to himself with annoyance, and turned his head to glare at his colleague.
But when he turned around, he saw no one, and the hand that had been on his shoulder had disappeared at some point.
Am I just imagining things?
The NPC paused for a moment, then prepared to continue teasing the two young ladies standing in front of him.
But the next moment, another hand landed on his shoulder.
In that instant, the NPC's heart stopped for a moment, a chill ran down his spine, and the hairs on his body stood on end.
