Chen Ge sat alone in the dark room, talking to himself in front of the four dolls. The scene was a bit weird, but fortunately, no one else saw it.

"I don't know why you appeared in my house of horrors, and I don't know how to address you, but I can assure you that I have no ill intentions."

Chen Ge's own voice was the only one echoing in the room. He looked at the four puppets in front of him and had a very contradictory thought.

I hope they will react and agree with what I say, but I am also afraid that the dolls will suddenly move on their own and do something dangerous.

After a few seconds, Chen Ge felt that he was overthinking, so he decided to change his approach: "The midnight escape scene simulates the Ping An Apartment five years ago. The four of you should be the victims of the murder case..."

Perhaps it was because he touched a sore spot. Chen Ge clearly felt that the temperature in the room dropped a few degrees. He didn't know when the door lock closed automatically, and the surrounding furniture was all shaking slightly.

"Now the case has been solved! The madman who hurt you and destroyed your beautiful life is being severely punished by the law!" Chen Ge was a little panicked. He took out his mobile phone and clicked on the news video on the Internet: "Look, the murderer has been arrested, and the person who caught him is me!"

Chen Ge knew that the obsession of the four puppets was related to Wang Qi, so he wanted to use the video to prove that he was the one who caught the murderer, but the effect was weak.

The atmosphere in the room became increasingly tense and heavy. Chen Ge was anxious but there was nothing he could do. The biggest problem was that the two sides were unable to communicate.

The situation was not right, but Chen Ge was not ready to retreat. This horror house was everything to him. If he allowed the four puppets to mess around in it, there would be too many unknown factors, and a serious accident might occur one day.

"Calm down! I'm here to help you!" The puppet didn't listen to Chen Ge at all. No matter how much he said, it was useless.

"Looks like I have no choice but to try this." Chen Ge took out Wang Qi's missing person notice from his pocket. There were some bloodstains on this yellowed thin paper, but other than that, there was nothing special about it.

But strangely enough, after Chen Ge took out the missing person notice, the noise in the house suddenly became much quieter and the atmosphere was no longer tense, as if the hand that was pinching his neck had slowly loosened.

"Is this what you want?" The missing person notice worked better than Chen Ge had imagined. He placed the piece of paper in the middle of the four puppets. After the puppets' bodies touched the yellowed paper, the missing person notice seemed to be blown by the wind and began to "struggle" desperately.

The situation in front of me was very strange. A piece of paper was surrounded by four puppets. There was no wind in the room, but they were all shaking.

Chen Ge watched closely. After a few minutes, the outline of a human face vaguely appeared on the missing person notice, and it seemed that he looked somewhat similar to Wang Qi.

Before Chen Ge could take a closer look, the face was torn into pieces and entered the bodies of the four dolls respectively. Then the room returned to complete peace.

"That's it?"

The black phone in his pocket vibrated. Chen Ge took it out and a new message appeared on the screen.

“Complete the only hidden mission in the Midnight Escape scene! Increase the favorability of the evil spirits by one, and gain the kindness of the victims of Ping An Apartment. They will clean up all the garbage for you every day to keep the Midnight Escape scene as it is.”

Looking at the information on the phone screen, Chen Ge stood there for a long time without saying anything: "Is this the only hidden task completed?"

His mind was a little confused. "Only when the completion rate of the trial mission exceeds 90% will the hidden props be awarded, and the hidden props are the key to completing the hidden scene mission! In other words, if I want to completely control the newly unlocked horror scene in the haunted house, I must complete the corresponding trial mission to more than 90%."

Now think about what happened to him in Ping'an Apartment. If he hadn't gone to investigate the truth, he might have survived the night safely, but in that case, the mission completion rate would be extremely low, and it would be impossible to get the hidden props.

"Insidious! This setting is clearly encouraging players to commit suicide." Chen Ge flipped through his black phone, wanting to check for more information. He first clicked on the column for the Goblin Team, but to his disappointment, the number of team members was still shown as zero.

"The mission prompts me to obtain the goodwill of the victims of Ping An Apartment, but there is nothing displayed in the ghost team column. Is this because they have not yet completely surrendered? Or is it that the victims' regrets are not ghosts at all, so they are not qualified to be included in the black phone?"

Chen Ge couldn't figure it out, so he opened the prop library again and found that Wang Qi's missing person notice was still there, but the resentment value on it had been reset to zero.

"What exactly is the grudge value? Why does the resentment of the victim tear it apart and devour it?"

The door to the unknown world is slowly opening. Chen Ge doesn't care whether these things are useful or not, and keeps them firmly in mind.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and stood up. "The victim's regret cannot be communicated, but it can help me maintain the original state of the scene. Overall, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."

Maintaining the props for the haunted house scene was a very tedious task, and the appearance of the victim's regret saved Chen Ge a lot of time.

Looking at the four puppets on the ground, the last bit of fear in Chen Ge's heart slowly dissipated: "Hiring ghosts to work in my horror house, maybe it will really come true in the future."

He walked to the door and looked back worriedly. The dolls representing his parents and sister were all lying there, except for the smallest doll, which was lying alone, looking furtive, as if it was preparing to sneak out again.

Seeing this scene, Chen Ge smiled. Not all ghosts in the world are evil and cruel. Just like the smallest puppet in front of him, it is like a cat that is curious about everything, naughty and timid.

"Little guy, don't run around. Be careful not to get stepped on." Chen Ge said and walked out. After helping the victims of Ping An Apartment fulfill their wishes, he had a deeper understanding of the black phone: "The unlocked horror scenes in the phone should not only be used to scare people. Each scene has its own story behind it, involving cause and effect entanglement. It also provides a place for these homeless people to stay."

Turning off the flashlight, Chen Ge walked in the dark corridor and ran a long way. After making sure that no one could hear him, the corners of his mouth unconsciously lifted up, revealing a fox-like smile: "They don't need salary or subsidies, they don't complain about being tired, they don't get emotional, and they are natural experts in scaring people. These guys are simply the most perfect employees!"

People feel refreshed when good things happen to them, and Chen Ge feels that he has more energy to scare people.

"It's been dragging on for so long, it's time to end it. There are three people left in the haunted house. Let me think about who should start with?"
