Gao Ruxue has been studying human anatomy for many years, and she has spent more time with corpses than with her roommates. She is not good at socializing with people, and she knows dead people better than living people.
"The makeup on the faces of our haunted house actors is very special. Coupled with the complex environment of the haunted house and your own psychological suggestion, the illusion occurs." The burial and Black Friday are things that cannot be seen in the light, and Chen Ge will never reveal them to outsiders.
He just brushed it off without going into the topic: "You two, if you have nothing else to do, I'll be busy now."
After saying goodbye to the forensic students, he asked Xu Wan to pack up the props from the ghost marriage scene and ran into the main control room alone.
Only Chen Ge himself knew the truth about Heshan being frightened and fainted. The monster hiding in the mirror did not leave and was still hiding in the haunted house.
"Keeping it will ultimately be a hidden danger." This was also the first time he accepted a nightmare-level mission, and he never expected such consequences.
Turning off the background music of the haunted house, Chen Ge called up the surveillance video and repeatedly watched the video of Heshan entering the west wing, playing it frame by frame, and soon made a discovery.
At 9:24:11, Heshan entered the west wing. He was so frightened that he rushed around.
At 24 minutes and 14 seconds, he came to the inner room and saw the bronze mirror for the first time. At this time, a very strange scene appeared on the surveillance camera.
Heshan, who was originally panicked, calmed down after seeing the bronze mirror. It was as if time had stopped. He stood in front of the mirror motionless.
The numbers representing time in the surveillance video kept changing until twenty-four minutes and seventeen seconds, when Heshan suddenly raised his left hand and walked towards the mirror.
It looked as if someone was holding his hand and trying to force him into the mirror!
At 24 minutes and 20 seconds, Xu Wan, wearing a wedding dress, chased after him from behind. At this time, half of Heshan's body was already pressed against the mirror. It could be clearly seen from the surveillance video that something flashed in the mirror, and then Heshan fainted on the ground.
"Did Xiaowan's arrival ruin the monster's plan in the mirror?" Chen Ge watched the video again and again. So many things happened in just ten seconds. He rubbed his temples and couldn't think of any good solution for the time being.
"It seems that I can only cover up all the mirrors in the haunted house first, and then I can eliminate the root of the problem after I figure out a way to deal with this monster."
He went into the prop room, found some black cloth, and entered the ghost marriage venue.
"Boss, why are you here? Just leave these to me." Xu Wan saw Chen Ge from afar through the gate. She was stuffing the scattered paper figures and paper money back into the coffin.
"I'm here to inform you that all mirror-related props in the haunted house are temporarily unusable. Also, when you're pretending to be a ghost, be careful not to get close to the mirror." Chen Ge held a black cloth and helped Xu Wan put the scattered coffin props back together.
Xu Wan didn't understand Chen Ge's behavior, but she didn't ask any further questions.
After rearranging the scene in the main room, Chen Ge entered the west wing alone.
White paper lanterns were hung high, and the light in the room was dim. He stood where Heshan had fainted, staring at the bronze mirror silently.
"The person living in the mirror? Is there another world hidden in the mirror?" Chen Ge touched the cold mirror surface and looked at himself in the mirror. After staring for a long time, he always felt a little strange: "When I handed Heshan the mineral water before, he subconsciously took it with his right hand, which means he is not left-handed. But in the surveillance, he raised his left hand at the first time. Why did he do something contrary to his habit? Could it be that he was controlled by the thing in the mirror at that time and had no choice?"
Chen Ge placed his left hand on the mirror, sticking it to the image in the mirror: "After all, only what is in the mirror is the opposite of reality."
Covering the mirror with a black cloth, Chen Ge sat in the haunted house and took out the black phone: "The person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. The monster appeared because of the black phone. If we want to kill it, I'm afraid we need the help of the black phone."
Slide the screen and click on the haunted house icon. The application interface has changed slightly. The number of visitors today and the number of visitors this month have increased by two each.
In the column of unlockable horror scenes, there is an additional trial task. After clicking it, it will prompt that you can unlock the corresponding horror scene as long as you complete the trial task.
"This game is designed to be very fair. You will get rewards after completing tasks. The generosity of the rewards is related to the difficulty of the tasks. If I want to develop the haunted house quickly and solve the dirt in the mirror, I need to complete as many tasks as possible."
Only one daily task can be completed per day, so Chen Ge naturally looked at the trial task.
“Midnight Escape Trial Mission: A dangerous mental patient has moved into the dilapidated apartment building. He is lingering outside your door with scissors and a hammer.”
"Mission location: Xijiao Ping'an Apartment."
"Mission requirements: Arrive at the mission site before 23:00 today, find the murderer, and survive until dawn."
“Mission Tip: He is hiding among the crowd, with a heart full of scars beneath his kind appearance.”
"Do you want to accept the mission? Note: The trial mission only exists for 24 hours. If you do not accept it within 24 hours, it will be considered abandoned and this scene will never be unlocked."
Chen Ge was a little hesitant at first, but after seeing the last one, he decisively chose to accept it.
"If it's a blessing, it won't be a disaster. If it's a disaster, it can't be avoided. Now that the haunted house has just started to pick up, I will seize every opportunity to run it better."
After accepting the task, he continued to look down and found that the terrifying turntable at the bottom had been activated at some point.
Chen Ge curiously clicked on the turntable interface, and a line of words appeared on the screen:
Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are determined by God. Here there are magical fruits that increase lifespan, but there are also evil spirits full of hatred.
The first time you collect a tourist's scream, the turntable is activated and you are given a chance to draw a lottery (the tourist's scream can only be collected if it exceeds 70 decibels. After accumulating 100 times, you will get a chance to spin the turntable).
"One hundred screams are required to redeem a chance to win a prize?" Chen Ge held his phone with a strange expression, "This turntable is too tricky. The conditions are difficult to meet, and the final result is uncertain. If a fierce ghost really comes out, it will be a lot of fun."
He looked at the remaining times on the dial and felt itchy in his heart. The feeling was just like when a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder saw an incoming message notification on his mobile phone. No matter whether it was a harassing message or not, he wanted to click on it.
"It shouldn't be a problem if I give it a try." Chen Ge consoled himself. With a light touch of his finger, the turntable on the screen started to spin immediately.
"As long as it's not a ghost, anything else is fine!"
