Chapter 215: Midnight Haunted House 2



Chapter 215: Midnight Haunted House 2

The system did make a decision. Five minutes after Su Qingyun returned to the dormitory, it asked Su Qingyun if she was willing to replace a team member in this stage, because she had just seen a team member from another team in the aisle. According to the rules of the game, it is also the captain's responsibility to protect team members from being discovered by others, so she has the power to replace other team members with her own team members.

Then, Yun Xuantian's avatar appeared in front of Su Qingyun, with the same beautiful face and the same bewitching smile as before. At the same time, the system also informed Su Qingyun of Yun Xuantian's skills.

[It can accurately capture the breath of ghosts. Su Qingyun's answer was very straightforward: no change.

[System, players, please dress neatly and return to the office in ten minutes. Please be careful not to bump into other players in the hallway. Once you're back in the office, please check your assigned cleaning tasks on your phone and then head to the underground parking lot to board your bus.]

Ten minutes later, Su Qingyun went out to the office. She didn't meet anyone along the way. When she arrived at the office, Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe were already there.

Su Qingyun told the two about the team member replacement. She said, "It seems that you should be careful when you return to the dormitory. Don't let others see you, otherwise you might be picked by others."

"Can we change team members at short notice?"

"Yeah, it's a very strange rule. It clearly states that it's a team competition, but you can change team members midway."

Xu Xinghe thought about it and pointed out the trap of this rule. "This way, the system can restrict the cooperation between team members. If we cooperate well, others may separate us. If we don't cooperate well, we will lose."

Su Qingyun sneered, the routines were really everywhere.

She raised her eyebrows and looked at Xu Xinghe and Ye Jian, and said very democratically, "If you want to leave me, you can also go out and let others see you. I don't care."

"I won't leave you." Xu Xinghe immediately expressed his loyalty.

Ye Jian didn't express his opinion, but he took out a hat and a mask from his work clothes pocket and put them on.

Then he shook the bell on his waist and asked Su Qingyun, "Do you still remember what I look like now?"

Su Qingyun's mind was blank, and she seemed to have no memory of Ye Jian's appearance.

"Your bell?"

"The secret treasure of the house, the hexagonal bell."

Su Qingyun stopped asking, although she was very curious about the family that Ye Jian mentioned. What kind of family would confiscate all his skill cards? What kind of family would have secret treasures?

Xu Xinghe's starry eyes turned slightly, and he secretly looked at Ye Jian, then he looked away.

[Cleaning Assignment: Please have three members of Cleaning Team A go to the Zeng family's old house to clean. Three years ago, Zeng's daughter-in-law, Yang Huihui, accidentally fell to her death in the old house. The ghost lingered, making the house a haunted place. Cleaning Assignment 1: Clean according to the second work flow of the employee code of conduct. Cleaning Assignment 2: Expel the vengeful spirit.]

After receiving the task, the three of them didn't say a word. They each picked up their toolbox and went to the underground parking lot.

During this time they did not encounter anyone.

There was a van in the parking lot marked Cleaning Group A, with no driver in the car.

Ye Jian looked inside the car and told them, "The car key is in the keyhole. There's a navigation system in the car, so it looks like we have to drive ourselves."

"I can't drive." Su Qingyun stated first.

Ye Jian smiled and nodded Su Qingyun's head. "How can we let a girl drive when there are two of us men here? Besides, even if you can drive, I won't let you drive. Otherwise, if we don't drive away the vengeful spirit, we will become vengeful spirits in the end."

Who is he looking down on?

Su Qingyun really wanted to retort, but Ye Jian had already jumped into the driver's seat.

Xu Xinghe came over and pulled her into the car.

He also helped her carry the toolbox.

The car soon arrived at the Zeng family's old house. Like the wilderness hotel, the Zeng family's old house was also a lonely house. It was surrounded by black fog. There were no trees or people, not even a dog barking at night.

Of course, there were no lights either.

The three people got out of the car. Su Qingyun looked at the time on her wrist. It was nine fifty-three in the evening.

There are still seven minutes until the weird time. It seems that there will be some trouble in this house tonight.

"Come in." Su Qingyun also took out a flashlight from the work box and was the first to enter the yard.

As the three people entered, the gate closed behind them, and then a sudden gust of cold wind blew, making the weeds in the yard rustle.

Su Qingyun looked up and observed the old house.

The house is indeed a bit old, as the architectural style is like that of the 1960s and 1970s. The yard is not big but is paved with rocks. There is a low pomegranate tree full of pomegranates, which emits a strange red light in the dark.

"Pomegranates are yin-type, and they are planted in the yard. It would be strange if this house is not a haunted house." Ye Jian also used a flashlight to look around.

"Do you also understand Feng Shui?" Su Qingyun asked him.

"I know a little bit." After saying that, Ye Jian walked straight towards the gate, and then pushed open the door of the house without hesitation.

The wind was blowing out from the door, and it was very strong. I didn't know where the paper money for the dead was placed, but the strong wind blew it all over the sky.

Su Qingyun couldn't help but frown. According to the work process of Article 2 of the Employee Code of Conduct, the garbage in the haunted house must be cleaned up. She didn't know whether these paper money could be considered garbage.

If it's considered garbage, it still needs to be cleaned up.

Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe, however, didn't care about the paper money flying in the sky. They looked around with their heads raised, letting the paper money fall on them.

Xu Xinghe pushed the door a little wider, which made the wind blow even harder.

"Come in." Ye Jian urged Su Qingyun.

Su Qingyun went in, and Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe cooperated perfectly to close the door. Then they used flashlights to scan the house from left and right.

The furniture in the house was very high-end, all made of mahogany, but it was covered in thick dust, and it looked like no one had lived there for three years.

Ye Jian found the power switch on the wall and turned it on. There was only a slight sound of the switch, but no light came on in the room.

It looks like the power is out.

Xu Xinghe took out candles and lighters from the space ring. He lit the candles and placed them in various places in the house.

There is some visibility in the living room.

Su Qingyun looked at the time. It was exactly ten o'clock in the evening.

"Let's start working." Su Qingyun put the toolbox on the ground, then took out a fluorescent pen from it. She used the fluorescent pen to draw a "cross" on the door, and then looked at the time while observing the fluorescent pen.

Thirty seconds later, the highlighter did not disappear, and she nodded to Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe.

The two men reacted quickly. They took out black tape from the toolbox, jumped to the windows, and quickly used black tape to cross-seal all the windows.

Although the three of them didn't know why they did this, it was the rule.

Next, they had to check under the bed.

Su Qingyun looked up at the second floor. The wooden staircase spiraled upwards and led directly into darkness.
