"Okay, don't worry."
Gu Feiyu didn't know why Chen Ge wanted to enter the haunted house to scare people and block the exit. He secretly muttered in his heart: "Are they trying to 'kill all' the tourists?"
After watching Chen Ge go underground, Xiao Gu obediently closed the wooden board and moved the props to press on it.
…
Yang Chen and Wei Wu's team chose the passage on the left. After walking halfway, a fork appeared in front of them.
"This is the second fork in the road. The left road ends at a deep well, and the right road ends at three empty rooms."
Yang Chen flipped through the notes in his hand. There was a detailed description of each scene. He could remember it so clearly. From this, he could see what kind of despair his seniors had experienced here. Even after returning to school, everything was still vivid in their minds.
"The three rooms have their own numbers. A female corpse is hidden on the ceiling of the bathroom in one of the rooms. According to the senior's records, there is a school badge in the pocket of the female corpse."
Listening to Yang Chen's description, Li Xue and Wang Yan both frowned, and were unwilling to get closer just by listening.
"Let's go and get this school badge." Kong Xiangming, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. Wei Wu wanted to say something, but was stopped by his eyes.
"Okay, then we'll help you guard the door. There's a reminder in the notes that when tourists enter an empty room, there may be puppets outside to harass them."
"No need. Isn't there a time limit for passing the level? You can go to the other one first, and we will come to find you later." Kong Xiangming left immediately after he finished speaking, and Wei Wu followed behind him. Both of them were very calm from beginning to end.
"Old Yang, let's go too." Wang Yan pointed to the road leading to the deep well and whispered, "It's good to separate, so they won't drag us down."
The previous notes said not to act separately, but the situation is different now. The two tourists are likely to be actors in disguise in the haunted house.
Yang Chen nodded, and the three of them trotted to the side of the deep well. Just as described in the notes, there were two school badges thrown into the well.
"Two school badges at a time. It seems that what the senior said is right. This well is indeed very dangerous." Li Xue took out a ball of thread from her handbag, took off the hairpin on her head, and tied it to the end of the ball of thread: "Fortunately, we are prepared."
“I guess the owner of the haunted house couldn’t have imagined this.” The three students felt happy for the first time since entering the haunted house, as if they had spiritually defeated the evil owner of the haunted house.
Li Xue put the ball of thread into the well, easily hooked one of the school badges, and slowly pulled it up. When the school badge was pulled out of the well, it was as if several people had worked hard all night and finally got some top-notch equipment.
“Well done!”
When Li Xue extended the thin line out of the deep well again, she was somewhat surprised to find that the well seemed to have become a little deeper.
She tried several times and finally hooked another school sign, but when she wanted to pull it back, a horrible scene appeared in the well.
The fine sand slid to both sides, and a dead face emerged.
The upper part of the school badge was exposed outside the sand, and the lower part was bitten in the dead face's mouth!
“Oh shit!”
"Are you playing so cruelly?!"
The three students lay by the well, experiencing for the first time the malicious world of adults.
"Xiaoxue, try harder and see if you can pull the school badge out."
The plump female student pulled the thin line upwards little by little, the fine sand slid, and the dead person's body gradually emerged.
"Bang!"
After trying several times, the thin thread finally broke, the school badge was not taken out, and the girl's hairpin fell near the doll's mouth.
"No, this boss really doesn't give us any room to maneuver!" Li Xue looked at her hairpin, feeling a little distressed.
"You two stay outside. I'll go downstairs and get the hairpin and school badge." Wang Yan was more impulsive: "Isn't it just a doll that looks like a dead person? I've seen real dead people before."
“You have seen dead people, but have you seen dead people that can move?” Yang Chen stopped Wang Yan: “This place is a dangerous area marked by seniors, don’t take risks easily, isn’t it just a school sign? Without this one, we can still find other school signs, don’t be blinded by the petty gains in front of you.”
"I'll listen to you." Wang Yan was impulsive, but he was not stupid: "How about we let those two haunted house actors go?"
"If they are actors, they would definitely not go down the well if they know it is dangerous; if they are just ordinary tourists, it would not be nice for us to cheat them like this," Li Xue advised.
"There's still time. We haven't seen the couple along the way. They may have gone to the other side. Let's find them first." Yang Chen looked at the map: "We can go around the front of the deep well. The scene over there is the girls' dormitory."
Yang Chen took the map and ran to the end of the deep well scene, but the girls' dormitory recorded on the map did not appear. Instead, another fork appeared.
"The map was drawn wrong?"
Yang Chen turned the hand-drawn map back and looked at it again: "How could there be a new passage here? Did we trigger a hidden scene? Does Boss Chen's haunted house have this gameplay?"
The three students looked at each other in bewilderment; the map they relied on was completely useless at this moment.
“No wonder there are so few school badges in the first few scenes, it seems that some of the school badges were placed in the hidden scenes.” Yang Chen tore off a page from his notebook and simply drew a few strokes with a pen: “Let’s go in and take a look. Even if we can’t pass the level today, we have to complete the map for the alumni who will explore later.”
The three students thought they had triggered a hidden scene, and they became the first visitors to enter the West City Private Academy.
Turning a corner, the architectural styles on both sides become slightly different. There are no traces of burning on the walls, and the feeling here is more real and immersive.
"Old Yang, do you smell a bad smell?" Wang Yan stopped at the intersection and covered his nose. "It's a very strange smell, as if something is moldy."
…
Kong Xiangming stood outside the "Room for Three People" scene, silent.
"Why did you avoid those three students and come here specifically?" Wei Wu was very confused.
"Look at the door in this scene. Does it look like the door of Haiming Apartment?" Kong Xiangming opened the door and found that the architectural structure inside was exactly the same as that of the room in Haiming Apartment.
"Really? How could it be such a coincidence?" Wei Wu was also a little surprised: "We just went to Haiming Apartment a few days ago and caught the guy who escaped privately. Today, we saw the same layout in the haunted house as Haiming Apartment."
"It takes time to set up the scene. It seems that the owner of the haunted house has already discovered the secret of Haiming's apartment." Kong Xiangming looked thoughtful: "He may have seen the guy who escaped from behind the door secretly."
