Chen Ge was the last person to jump down from the second floor. When he stood on the windowsill, he was also shocked by the surging flow of people downstairs.

"It seems like things are a bit over the top this time."

In order not to stand out, Chen Ge hesitated for a moment and then jumped down from the window sill.

"Someone jumped off the building!"

Waves of noise rose and fell on Xinhai Central Avenue, and more and more people were crowding here.

It took a full ten minutes for order to be restored at the scene after the police arrived.

"Don't stay where you are, don't block the passage, let the ambulance in!"

Several police officers dispersed the onlookers, and it didn't take them long to find the people who had just "jumped off the building".

"Something is running out from under the building! Police comrade! I know this is hard to understand, but this is the fact!" Xiao Zhao kept jumping up and down, trying to attract the attention of the police: "There are still tourists inside! Quick! Save them!"

Several actors in the haunted house were very emotional and had not yet calmed down. After the police briefly inquired about the situation, they all looked strange.

At first they thought a vicious murder had occurred, but later they thought there might be a fire in the haunted house and they were forced to jump off the building. However, after listening to the employees' descriptions, the police felt that this group of people seemed to be playing a joke on them.

"The thing downstairs? Do you know what the consequences are for teasing the police?" The leading police captain had a dark face. After understanding the situation, he began to suspect that this was a malicious hype by the Nightmare Academy. All of this was a farce directed and performed by them to gain popularity and attention.

"We are not kidding you! It's real! The thing downstairs appeared out of thin air! He was wearing a red shirt!" Several surviving haunted house actors described it vividly to the police.

The frightened eyes, hurried tone, exaggerated body movements, the actors in the haunted house seemed to be too immersed in the role and couldn't get out.

"Okay, okay, where is your person in charge? Ask him to come out, I have something to ask him." The police captain felt that he really could not communicate with the actors in the haunted house.

"Who's in charge?" Several haunted house actors looked at each other, and they suddenly remembered that their boss was still in the haunted house!

"Oh no! The boss is still in there!"

…

Waving the golf club in his hand, Nightmare Academy boss Shangguan Qinghong frowned slightly: "It's a bit light, forget it, I can't find a more convenient weapon in a short time, so let it be."

He looked at the computer screen and checked the several clips that he had just captured from the surveillance. The protagonist of these videos was Chen Ge. All the clips he captured were of Chen Ge escaping from his own haunted house.

"With such a cowardly boss, how can Hanjiang Horror House be compared with my Nightmare Academy in the future? Their boss is scared to death when he comes to my place." Although many unexpected things happened today, Boss Shangguan was still very happy. He felt that he had maintained the reputation of his haunted house and dealt a heavy blow to the arrogance of his opponent.

"So what even if a real ghost runs out downstairs? As long as it is a ghost that appears in my haunted house, it is part of the strength of my haunted house." Justice does not command wealth, and kindness does not command soldiers. Shangguan Qinghong felt that he was doing the right thing.

"I already have evidence that Chen Ge collapsed from fear. Now all we have to do is get out safely." After all the videos captured from the surveillance were downloaded, Shangguan Qinghong put away his phone.

He put on a hard hat and knee pads and held the golf club in one hand.

"It's time to get out. Even though that thing downstairs is weird and scary, I have a lot of employees under me. If we get together, even the dirty stuff won't make any waves."

Taking a deep breath, Shangguan Qinghong opened the door of the principal's office: "Don't panic, everyone! Follow my instructions!"

The door was open, but there were no employees outside as Shangguan Qinghong had imagined. There was no one in the dark corridor, only the cold air from the air conditioner blowing randomly.

"Where are the people?"

Standing alone in the dark corridor, Shangguan Qinghong couldn't help but panic. He took out his intercom and shouted loudly: "Where are you? Xiao Zhao? Lao Li? Xiao Xu?"

He changed several channels but no one answered. His voice was the only one he could hear in the entire corridor.

"What's going on?"

No one spoke on the intercom and no one answered the cell phone, as if he was the only one left in the world.

"Where did all these guys go?"

Shangguan Qinghong held the golf club and after a brief panic, he immediately calmed down: "I notified them as soon as the incident happened. The actors on the same floor as me gathered directly at the door of my office. Now they all disappeared. There are two possibilities."

"First, the dirty things under the building are chasing them. They attracted the attention of the dirty things and helped me lead away the ghosts. Now is a good opportunity for me to leave."

"Second, they have already been killed. If this is the case, then there is no point in me worrying or being afraid. What is coming will eventually come. Blind panic will only make me lose my sense of proportion."

The fact that Shangguan Qinghong was able to run Nightmare Academy into the largest haunted house in Xinhai shows that he is very capable, but perhaps because his career has been so smooth, he has some personality issues.

"My goal has been achieved. Now all I have to do is ensure my own safety." Shangguan Qinghong decided to leave immediately. As for the safety of his employees, he would only consider that after he ensured his own safety first.

Shangguan Qinghong walked carefully to the elevator door. It took him two minutes to walk this short distance.

The usually familiar scene is now filled with a special sense of horror.

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Shangguan Qinghong pressed the elevator button, but the elevator seemed to have a problem and stayed on the underground first floor.

"What's going on?" After pressing the button several times, the numbers on the elevator's external display screen changed and began to rise slowly.

"It's so slow!" Standing at the elevator door, Shangguan Qinghong became more and more scared. He looked at the dark corridor and always felt that something would suddenly appear in the darkness. Fear was like a poisonous weed taking root in his heart.

When the elevator reached the second floor, Shangguan Qinghong suddenly heard footsteps in the corridor. The background music also changed at this moment, and he could clearly hear the voice of an unfamiliar man.

"That thing is coming."

The footsteps in the corridor were getting closer and closer. Shangguan Qinghong stared at the numbers on the elevator's outer screen, holding the golf club tightly in both hands.

“Hurry up!”

When footsteps appeared on the fourth floor, the elevator finally reached the fourth floor.

The elevator door painted with various colors opened to both sides, and Shangguan Qinghong squeezed inside. As soon as he stepped in, his body froze.

There is actually someone in the elevator!

The man was standing in the corner of the elevator, his face pale. He was also frightened when he saw the haunted house owner rushing in with a golf club.

"Who are you?"

The two spoke in unison, as if they had discussed it beforehand.

After staring at each other for about three seconds, the haunted house owner spoke first: "Are you a tourist?"

All his attention today was on Chen Ge, and he didn't care much about other tourists.

The pale middle-aged man nodded and looked at Shangguan Qinghong warily: "What about you?"

"I'm the owner of the haunted house. There's a small accident here. Don't ask too many questions. I'll take you out first." Shangguan Qinghong behaved very calmly in front of the tourists.

After hearing Shangguan Qinghong say that he was the owner of the haunted house, the other person in the elevator breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay."

"A tall tree attracts the wind. There was an accident today. It was mainly because of our colleagues who came to cause trouble. Our haunted house is not like this normally." Shangguan Qinghong forced a smile and pushed all the responsibility onto Chen Ge: "What do you call a friend?"

"My last name is Zhou, you can just call me Lao Zhou."

The footsteps in the corridor were approaching quickly and had already appeared at the corner of the fourth floor. Shangguan Qinghong quickly pressed the elevator door switch.

The bloodstained elevator door slowly closed, and the strange footsteps were getting closer and closer!

The owner of the haunted house could do nothing in the elevator at this moment. His heart was in his throat and his hands slowly clenched.

"Close it! Close it quickly!"

Perhaps God heard the prayers of the Nightmare Academy boss, because when the elevator door was about to close, the footsteps were still a few meters away.

"It's stable." He breathed a sigh of relief, but then the thing he expected happened.

A hand stretched out from the elevator and got stuck in the middle of the elevator door that was about to close!

Shangguan Qinghong swore that he was definitely not mistaken, that pale hand was stretched out from inside the elevator!

The elevator door touched the hand and opened to both sides again.

Shangguan Qinghong almost fainted when he looked at Lao Zhou who had stood at the door without him noticing.

His lips were pale and before he could say anything, a strong smell of blood hit the elevator like a huge wave!

When he raised his head again, Shangguan Qinghong saw Lao Zhou retreat to the side and a strange figure standing at the elevator door.

The red clothes are as red as blood, and the body is filled with resentment. Black curses are running through the flesh and blood.

"Don't come over!" The owner of the haunted house curled up in the corner of the elevator, watched Blood Shadow enter the elevator, and then saw Lao Zhou press the button to close the door.

The elevator door slowly closed, and this time no one tried to stop it.

…

"Is your boss still in the haunted house?" The leading captain looked at the screaming actors in the haunted house, not understanding why they were so excited.

"Comrade police officer! Please save our boss! He is still on the fourth floor! There are other tourists in the haunted house!"

Hearing that the haunted house actors didn't seem to be joking, the police nodded in agreement and gathered a team to go to the main entrance of the haunted house.

"The elevator is the only exit in our haunted house, but now it's occupied by the dirty things downstairs! It's been parked on the underground first floor..." Xiao Zhao said as he jumped. He led the way in front, pointing at the display screen outside the elevator.

But when he saw the numbers on the display, he was stunned.

The number on the display screen is two, which means that the elevator is passing the second floor.

"The elevator moved? It must be the dirty guy downstairs taking the elevator upstairs!" Xiao Zhao screamed.

At this time, the number on the display was still changing, and soon it became one again.

After a few seconds, the elevator door slowly opened in front of the police and the haunted house actors.

The boss of Nightmare Academy was lying on the ground holding a golf club, his body twitching constantly, and he had completely lost consciousness.

"boss!"

The employees rushed over: "Call the emergency number!"

People were scared to death. If this was directed and performed by the haunted house themselves, then they were going too far.

The leading policeman realized that something was wrong and asked a few people to take the elevator upstairs.

They searched the entire building repeatedly, but did not encounter any of the dirty things that the haunted house actors mentioned. Instead, they saw more haunted house actors lying unconscious on the ground, and two confused couples of tourists.

When they first saw the police come in, the couple of tourists thought they were actors in the haunted house disguised as police officers, and they had a crazy conversation in an attempt to trigger the plot of the haunted house.

About thirty minutes later, an area was cleared in front of the haunted house, and the unconscious haunted house actor and owner were taken away by ambulance. The remaining conscious tourists and actors stayed behind to be questioned by the police, and finally everyone was taken to the nearest police station.

Sitting in the police car, Chen Ge fastened his seat belt skillfully. He never thought that he would have the opportunity to ride in a Xinhai police car on his first visit to Xinhai.

"Comrade police officer, please believe me, I am really innocent. My hometown is in Hanjiang. I came all the way here to visit the haunted house. In fact, I am also a victim..."

…

"Make way! Emergency! Make way!" Medical carts passed through the corridor, carrying unconscious patients to the emergency room.

"No more room! Send the remaining patients to other wards first! Xiao Zhang, call Dr. Liu and Dr. Xu who are on break to come over immediately! A large number of employees in a haunted house on Xinhai Central Avenue have fainted! We suspect it's food poisoning! They may have eaten some kind of hallucinogenic substance!"

"No abnormalities were found during the physical examination! They seem to have been stimulated by something. Fainting is the body's own protective mechanism."

"When will they wake up?" The leading policeman had a headache. The public security in Xinhai was very good and such a thing had never happened in the area under his charge.

"Not sure! It could be as short as one or two, or as long as a few days. We can't tell for sure." The doctor in charge couldn't count either: "If you're in a hurry, I suggest you transfer them to Hanjiang Central Hospital. I heard that the doctors there are very good at treating syncope. They even have a separate ward to specifically receive this type of patients!"

"Is there a hospital that specializes in treating fainting?" The leading policeman hesitated. The current situation was no longer something he could decide.

"Forget about the other patients, but the patient named Shangguan Qinghong is in a very serious condition. He has fallen into a deep coma and has no response to external stimuli. I suggest sending him to Hanjiang and receiving relevant treatment immediately."

"Okay, I'll report to my superiors." The leading police officer nodded: "The hospital in Hanjiang is called Hanjiang Central Hospital, right?"

"Yes, Hanjiang Central Hospital, Paradise Exclusive Ward No. 514! I don't know why they gave the ward such a name, but I know that their ability to treat fainting is the best in the industry." The doctor said seriously.
