Chapter 64 Fantasy Amusement Park (46)
Su Yue closed his eyes, and Cangzhi's palm pressed lightly on his mouth. He couldn't feel it, but he knew in his heart that Cangzhi's lips were separated by a hand's distance.
It was like kissing Cang Zhi through my palm.
The NPC's footsteps gradually faded away. He couldn't tell the difference between a real kiss and a fake kiss, nor was he perverted enough to get close to see whether the two people's mouths were touching. This level of intimacy was enough.
But the kiss between Cangzhi and Suyue did not stop the moment the NPC's footsteps disappeared. It lasted a little longer in a rather subtle way.
It was only two or three seconds later, and the two of them let go of each other's hands at the same time, took a step back and looked at each other.
Even though they didn't really kiss, Cangzhi looked at Suyue lovingly. Suyue looked like she had been bullied, with watery eyes, as if they had just had a real and passionate kiss.
Cang Zhi cleared his throat and said, "Just now... I had to make an emergency decision. I'm sorry."
After hearing what he said, Su Yue regained his composure. He smiled and said, "I understand, Ah Zhi. We have to leave here as soon as possible."
He is now in a very normal state again, and feels a little dazed when he thinks about what just happened.
For a few seconds, Su Yue really couldn't tell whether the person in front of him was a puppet or Cang Zhi himself, so that "kiss" made it particularly difficult for him to get over it.
Now that Cangzhi has returned to his true nature as a puppet, Suyue's energy has subsided and he feels much more at ease now.
The BUG-level NPC was still patrolling. Although they had left now, they would be back soon. Su Yue and Cang Zhi did not dare to delay any longer. They ran through the stairwell as fast as they could and rushed to the viewing terrace.
Su Yue and Cang Zhi had just stepped onto the viewing terrace when the ghost bride slowly walked out from another door.
As the bride stepped onto the terrace, Su Yue felt that heavy sadness again, as if even the ground and the white jade railings were stained a sea-blue by her heavy sorrow. The moment the bride stepped onto the terrace, she noticed Su Yue and Cang Zhi—though it was unclear how she noticed them—and then she quickly turned around, as if she wanted to leave, just like last night.
Su Yue quickly took out the red leaf bookmark from his pocket, waved it vigorously twice, and shouted, "Wait!"
Su Yue wasn't sure if this was reliable. Judging from his actions, he himself felt it wasn't. But the bride's figure trembled slightly, and she actually stopped.
She slowly turned towards Suyue. Fireflies formed a group, embellishing her skirt that was shattered by the fire. They flashed as she turned, and her veil and headband swayed in the gentle night breeze.
The bride kept looking in Su Yue's direction. It should be said that she was looking at the red leaf bookmark in his hand, which was the token of love given to her by the groom.
She stretched out her hand hesitantly, but stopped after stretching it out a little bit.
The bride's arms were long and slender, but because they were burnt black, they looked like two pieces of dead charcoal.
She certainly didn't want her loved one to see her like this.
She even wanted to leave again. Su Yue could see that the bride stretched out her hand halfway and then retracted it to her side. She lifted up her skirt embarrassedly and wanted to turn around and go back to the corridor.
"Don't go." Su Yue said, "He wants to see you."
The bride's back froze.
The veil trembled slightly in the wind, as if she was crying with her head down. Su Yue couldn't get close to her for fear of scaring her.
She was very timid, perhaps because of the tragic situation at the end of her life. Su Yue couldn't bear to see her like this, so he and Cang Zhi waited on the side.
After an unknown amount of time, the bride finally turned around slowly, and Su Yue and Cang Zhi finally saw her face.
It was a face that had been completely distorted by the fire, with even the facial features blurred. Under the purest and most beautiful white veil, the face looked even more shocking.
He couldn't even see where her eyes were, but Su Yue knew she was "looking" at them, he could feel that gaze.
Can I really see him?
The bride took a step forward, and the lovely beads on her hair swayed in the wind.
she seemed to be asking.
"Really? Don't worry." Su Yue said, "My teammates have already gone to bring him out. He will definitely come to see you today. Please don't leave, okay?"
The bride hesitated, and finally chose to believe Su Yue's words. She continued to walk towards Su Yue with light steps.
However, when Su Yue looked closely, he discovered that there were things like wounds on her skin that were slightly opening up, as if she was constantly suffering new injuries.
Ghosts will soon be annihilated in windy places. It seems that the bride will not be spared from this suffering. Su Yue felt a little sorry and said to the bride, "Why don't you go back and wait in a place without wind. When he comes, you can come out."
The bride shook her head slowly.
What she meant was that if she went back, she would never be able to get out. Su Yue guessed this clearly.
"Then you want to wait for him here?" Su Yue said.
The bride nodded slowly.
Su Yue was prepared for this. He pointed to the bushes that he had just spotted at a glance.
The grass and trees there were lush and very tall, like sheds and umbrellas, shielding everything around and making it very quiet.
"There's no wind here. You'll feel better if you wait here."
The bride nodded slowly again, holding up the hems of her skirt with both hands, crossed her right foot behind her left foot, and gracefully bent her knees towards Su Yue like a dancer saluting, then walked into the bushes.
Su Yue looked up at the fog in the distance. Today's fog was light pink and very dreamy, but now the fog was getting thicker, especially in the diagonal direction in the distance, near the bushes on the other side of the warehouse. The pink fog was so thick that it was almost turning into clouds, which made him feel a little worried.
As if to soothe his anxiety, Cang Zhi walked naturally to his side.
——
At this moment, on the other side.
Zhao Shuo and Su Chen strolled outside until around 1 a.m., watched the fireworks together, and then went to the warehouse.
"Damn, it's quite creepy this late at night." Zhao Shuo looked around and felt as if there were countless ghostly figures swaying among the heavy shadows of the trees. "Boss and Brother Cang take this road back every night? They're not afraid at all? I look so weak in comparison."
"They are not ordinary people." Su Chen said, "You are already very brave. If there were two of me, I wouldn't even dare to walk here."
Zhao Shuo scratched his head awkwardly. "You're a little girl, so it's normal to be a little timid... It's really creepy to wipe here. Let me tell you a joke."
Accompanied by Zhao Shuo's not-so-funny jokes, the two finally arrived at the warehouse.
I thought the woods outside were creepy enough, but when I entered the yard where the warehouse was, I found that compared to here, the woods outside were so quiet and peaceful.
Su Yue also arranged for them to do other things, so Zhao Shuo and Su Chen first walked around the yard before going into the hall to find the deputy manager.
"Oh my god." Su Chen lowered his voice and pointed at the staff members walking around the warehouse hall, peeking in and out, "Those NPCs...are they rat spirits? They look too much like rats."
"Sister, please don't mention it. I'm terrified of mice." Zhao Shuo's scalp tingled, and he began to stutter. "How am I supposed to draw lots with them?"
"I'll go." Su Chen said.
When the deputy manager saw Su Chen and Zhao Shuo, he still looked very unwelcome.
Su Chen looked at his earth-yellow eyes and didn't want to talk anymore, but he still gritted his teeth and asked to "go down to the warehouse."
"No!" The deputy manager was very arrogant, and his behavior was completely different from how he was in front of Su Yue and the others.
"We have the director's permission." Su Chen took out the dozen trial coupons.
"That won't work either. It's so late now, you're not allowed to enter the museum without permission!" The deputy manager said fiercely, even trying to snatch Su Chen's experience coupon. "Besides, who knows where these coupons came from? What if they were stolen from the director? Not only can I not let you in, I have to confiscate your experience coupons!"
Su Chen is the kind of girl who is introverted most of the time and even a little weak.
But at some critical moments she would suddenly explode, which might be a trait she learned from nursing studies. At critical moments, she would be very reliable.
Just like now, she threw the experience coupon behind her expressionlessly, dodging the assistant manager's rude gesture, and then asked coldly: "You mean you don't take the employee handbook seriously, right?"
The deputy manager choked and blushed. After a moment, he spoke again, his tone miraculously softening. "If you really want to go in, then you can go in. You have the ticket anyway. But you have to draw lots to enter the underground warehouse. You should know the rules, right?"
"I know." Su Chen said, "Bring me the lottery box."
Of course, she couldn't draw Warehouse No. 521 the first time, but Su Chen imitated Su Yue and said "one more time" in her tone. The manager's characteristic of bullying the weak and fearing the strong was clearly revealed, and he actually let her continue to draw.
Compared with Su Yue, Su Chen was lucky. She drew the correct number for the third time. The two of them took the alarm clock and went down to Warehouse No. 521.
The process of taking the elevator down is also very stressful. The dark elevator shaft gives people the feeling of going into hell.
However, at this time, Zhao Shuo and Su Chen had calmed down. The plan was about to be implemented, and both of them calmly confirmed what they were going to do.
"We'll go in and bring that ghost out later. The warehouse door will be closed, and we'll go through the hole behind the wall that the boss mentioned." Zhao Shuo took off his work jacket.
"I'll wrap him up in my coat for now, to prevent him from melting in the light... I mean, wrapping a ghost in clothes seems strange no matter how you think about it, but it seems to be the case."
"Then you go and drive the car, and I'll wait for your news. If the car can't be driven, I'll go find the manager and try to rob his flatbed truck, saying that there's a flatbed truck mark on the map, but this may not work. I still hope you can drive the car." Su Chen said.
Zhao Shuo pursed his lips and said, "I'll try my best."
"You can do it." Su Chen smiled, "You're such a good driver."
As they were talking, the elevator hit the bottom with a clang, and Zhao Shuo and Su Chen walked out.
.
The chains in the warehouse began to shake violently when they sensed their approach, and one could almost feel his eagerness to see his lover.
Su Chen was dexterous and helped him untie the chains. Zhao Shuo stood watch on the side. They freed the groom without much effort. Zhao Shuo carefully made an empty package with his clothes.
"Brother, if you want to get in, just go ahead and get in. I'll leave you room. After all, I can't see you either... Hey, actually, if you try harder, I can see you, but I really don't want to see ghosts. It's too subversive. You can understand, right?"
The clothes moved slightly, meaning "ok, I understand, I'm still alive."
Zhao Shuo knew that time was running out. After making sure he had brought the ghost with him, he pulled Su Chen out of the warehouse one after the other. This process was easier said than done. A few minutes later, the two of them were sitting in the elevator going up, covered in dust.
Everything seemed fine until Suchen sniffed, "Did you notice something's wrong? The air in this elevator smells strangely like cream."
Then, Zhao Shuo and Su Chen both saw the pink mist slowly filling the elevator.
.
Zhao Shuo quickly gestured to Su Chen, meaning "hold your breath." If this pink mist was poisonous or corrosive, they would have died in it. Fortunately, it was not that bad.
The elevator was soon filled with pink mist, but neither of them felt any physical discomfort.
Zhao Shuo was looking outside nervously, but when he relaxed a little, he turned around and said to Su Chen, "It's okay, it shouldn't be... Hey?! What's wrong with you?!"
He suddenly noticed that Su Chen's lips were trembling slightly, and he looked down at the ground, looking like he could cry at any moment.
In the thick fog, Su Chen sniffed hard and sobbed, "I suddenly remembered the boy I liked before. I don't know why, but I feel so sad when I think about not being able to be with him."
Zhao Shuo was stunned. This was beyond his comprehension. However, he tried to console her, "Is he important to you? Don't worry, just stay calm."
Su Chen sniffed hard again and wiped the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand. "It's not very important, so I don't know why it's like this now. It's so painful to think that I can't be with him. It's so painful that I want to die."
Zhao Shuo was completely stunned at first, not understanding why the little girl suddenly brought up these things, until the creamy smell of the pink mist rushed into his nostrils, which made him suddenly enlightened.
He shouted, "Xiao Su! This is probably the effect of the mist! You're poisoned! Stay calm and think about something happy! Don't be affected!"
He wasn't sure if shouting loudly would be helpful, but at least in TV dramas, when someone was dying, their friends would yell at them to stay awake, so that should have some effect.
Su Chen felt very sad. The sweet scent of cream in the pink mist was bewitching, and a feeling of despair from the bottom of her heart pulled her down little by little.
But she knew that she shouldn't have such feelings. It was just a secret crush that she had just started to fall in love with. She knew that it was the thick fog that was causing the problem, so she tried hard to cooperate with Zhao Shuo's calls and responded to him to keep herself awake.
Now both of them realized that this creamy pink mist would amplify the sadness in everyone's heart, but the good news was that it could only amplify the love between children.
The elevator creaked all the way up. Su Chen struggled to fight the despair that was growing in the pink fog. Zhao Shuo kept talking loudly to persuade her.
"Don't be sad! Men are nothing!"
"There's plenty of fish in the sea! Two-legged men are everywhere!"
"Think about something happy! We'll be able to see Boss and Cang show their affection soon!"
To Su Chen, these five minutes felt as long as five hours. The despair of not being able to get the love she wanted surged in her heart again and again. It was clearly just a silhouette of her first love in junior high school, but it was magnified to this extent.
If she was alone in the elevator, she would have been swallowed by despair and jumped out of the gap in the elevator bars.
Fortunately, Zhao Shuo kept yelling loud and funny things, which helped her chaotic mind remain somewhat clear. When the elevator finally stopped at the first floor with a "ding" sound, the pink mist dissipated dejectedly from the elevator.
The suffocating feeling of despair gripping his heart eased a little, and Su Chen finally didn't have to fight with himself anymore. He took a long breath, and his legs softened as he knelt on the ground.
Zhao Shuo reached out and pulled her up, asking her how she was. Su Chen couldn't speak at first. She leaned against the wall and took several deep breaths before she felt that she was basically fine.
As they walked down the corridor from the elevator to the lobby, Su Chen said, "That poisonous fog is truly terrifying. It will infinitely magnify your emotional frustrations. I can't even remember what the boy I used to like looked like, but after being provoked by the poisonous fog, I felt that only by jumping in could I alleviate the despair of not being able to have him."
After that, she asked admiringly, "So, how do you have such good concentration?"
Zhao Shuo touched his nose and chuckled, "Because I was born single, he had no idea where to start."
Su Chen: “…”
0x positive infinity = 0.
Like.
.
I walked through the long corridor and entered the hall. Perhaps because it was too late, the staff were not there and the lights in the hall were off. In the darkness, I could only see shelves stacked on top of each other, like a terrifying maze.
"We..." Zhao Shuo had just started when he was interrupted by a voice in the darkness.
“Squeak—”
A rustling sound accompanied by a strange cry appeared, and Zhao Shuo's face changed immediately. He quickly took out his mobile phone, turned on the flashlight mode, and shone it in the direction of the sound. When he saw the dark figures over there, he could see his face turned pale instantly even against the light.
"Fuck..." Zhao Shuo said these three words, and his legs were so weak that he almost couldn't stand.
Su Chen quickly supported his shoulders from behind and hammered him twice, "Hold steady!"
"I can't keep still!" Zhao Shuo cried with a sad face, "I'm most afraid of rats in my life!"
At the end of the corridor, there was a black mass of large rats with sleek fur. They were huddled together, making the blue floor tiles look like they were covered with a wriggling black carpet. Their yellow eyes, like light bulbs, were staring in the direction of Zhao Shuo and Su Chen. The scene was extremely disgusting.
The thing Zhao Shuo fears most in his life is rats. Now he has to hold on to the wall to stand, but when he thinks that there may be rats crawling on the wall, he doesn't want to let go of it. He is caught in an awkward dilemma.
Suddenly, he felt a weight in his hand. It was Su Chen who stuffed the clothes containing the ghost of the groom that she had been holding into his hand. Then Su Chen grabbed his shoulders and twisted them. Zhao Shuo was turned 180 degrees like a clockwork man, and he could no longer see the scene in the corridor.
"Take him and run, I'll cover your retreat." Su Chen said, "I'll run over to meet you later."
"Are you okay?" Zhao Shuo was unsure.
But he had no intention of showing off and working with Su Chen to deal with these rats. In front of the rats, he was nothing but a loser and would only cause trouble.
Su Chen had already picked up a large broom piled in the corner next to him. "Don't worry, I've been cleaning the basement for three years. Rats are very common."
She even wielded a broom and performed a set of nunchakus, "Stop talking nonsense and get going!"
Zhao Shuo actually felt weak in the knees just by hearing the squeaking of mice, but Su Chen was so brave that he couldn't let him down. He gritted his teeth and said, "Wait for me!"
Su Chen's answer was to hold the broom across her body and sweep it with great force, sending the mouse closest to her flying.
.
Zhao Shuo ran out with the groom. The director must have sensed something and was trying desperately to stop them. He was running out like he was running against an eight-force gale.
It took him nearly a minute to walk the short distance from the front yard to the back yard, not including the stairs he had to climb afterwards.
There is a small yard behind the warehouse. It seems that the yard has been vacant for a while. There are miscellaneous items piled in the yard. Apart from the miscellaneous items, there is also a staircase.
The entrance to the stairs was locked tightly, and above it was the control console of an amusement facility, with the train tracks extending from here.
This is the starting point of the "Love at First Sight" train that circles the park.
"Hey, buddy, are you okay?" Zhao Shuo kept talking to the groom in the package. "If you're okay, just let me know."
The clothes creaked twice, and the groom was saying "I'm fine" and "I can't speak."
"Hold on a little longer." Zhao Shuo's bangs were blown back by the strong wind. He held the package in his arms like a child, and walked to the stairs against the wind, one foot deep and one foot shallow. When he was about to take out the experience coupon and swipe the door open, he suddenly shouted, "Oh no! The experience coupon is with Xiao Su!"
When drawing lots just now, Zhao Shuo gave all the trial coupons to Su Chen, and now the situation is not good.
He frantically searched his body and when he touched the fifth pocket of his work jacket, he breathed a sigh of relief.
There was a coupon that had fallen off from a dozen experience coupons, lying crumpled in this pocket.
"God helps me." Zhao Shuo muttered and quickly handed over the experience voucher.
No one was responsible for checking, but with a "click", the chain at the stairs fell off automatically, and a rusty staircase appeared in front of Zhao Shuo.
Walking up the stairs, there is a signboard on the side. It is covered with dust due to neglect, but you can still see the words "Love at First Sight" and the time displayed on the LED timer screen, which shows that the battery is not exhausted.
It was already 2:15, much later than scheduled. The groom must be very weak now, and he was only supported by his obsession to see his lover.
The little train stopped at this end of the track, like a quiet and old piece of scrap metal.
Zhao Shuo took out a fluorescent heart-shaped card from his pocket. This was something Su Yue brought out from under the water during the Ferris wheel level. They didn't know what it was for at the time, but later they suddenly got an inspiration and thought it might be the starting key for the "Love at First Sight".
Zhao Shuo found the card reader and stuck the heart-shaped card on it.
There was a silence of about three seconds, and he kept praying in his heart.
Until with a "beep", all the lights around the train lit up, instantly lighting up the entire station with dazzling brilliance.
The car body is mainly pink, and is surrounded by colorful lights, as if it is a wedding car decorated with colorful flowers.
"Get in the car, buddy."
Zhao Shuo sat in the driving seat. The train was supposed to be machine-controlled, but it could also be manually controlled when necessary.
He placed the groom in the passenger seat, pulled the joystick, and shouted, "Xiao Su! I'm here to pick you up!"
