Chapter 91: Heat Soars



Seeing that the completion rate of the trial mission exceeded 90%, Chen Ge finally put his heart at ease.

This horror scene with a scream index of two stars was simpler than he expected, probably because the ghosts in Muyang Middle School did not specifically target him.

Halfway through the mission, he had already discovered that the ghosts in Muyang Middle School were not evil spirits or fierce ghosts. Most of them, including the Pen Fairy, had no intention of harming people. The reason why Fan Yu's father was threatened by them was also his own fault, as he had made the mistake first.

The most difficult part of the whole trial mission was the two side missions of the classroom and the deep well. He had not yet solved the mystery of the last classroom, but had only gone in to experience it. Fortunately, the ghosts of that class showed mercy and did not embarrass him. The difficulty of the deep well mission was no less than that of the classroom. Even with the help of the police, he had to dig for a whole night before finding the wellhead before dawn. If he relied on his own strength, this side mission would have almost no chance of success.

After completing the trial mission and unlocking a new scene, Chen Ge was very satisfied. As for the hidden props in the end, he didn't really care. Legend has it that the Pen Fairy can predict the future and good or bad luck, but that's just a legend. This Pen Fairy in his house seems to know nothing and has no principles or moral integrity.

The rain that had fallen all night finally stopped, and the police from the Xicheng Police Station did not treat Chen Ge, the hero, unfairly. After taking a brief statement, they drove him away.

During an emergency call, the police officer in the car was so tired that he fell asleep. Chen Ge moved his body as much as possible to make more space for them. No one spoke along the way and it was very quiet.

At six o'clock in the morning, Chen Ge returned to New Century Park.

Not sure if it was because of his dark pupils or because of his long-term contact with evil spirits, but Chen Ge always felt a little cold.

Not feeling sleepy at all, he lay on the bed in the employee lounge. When he turned on his cell phone, he found that there were several missed calls and more than a dozen text messages.

Most of the calls were from Heshan, mainly asking Chen Ge if he had encountered any accidents and whether he needed to call the police.

Turning to the bottom of the mailbox, Chen Ge unexpectedly saw a message from Doctor Gao, who said that Fan Yu's condition might be related to his relatives and asked Chen Ge to pay more attention.

The text message was sent at 12:30 in the evening, when Fan Yu's aunt had already revealed her true colors to Chen Ge.

After replying to the text messages to Heshan and Dr. Gao, Chen Ge opened the short video platform and clicked on his personal homepage.

"I live streamed for four hours, but didn't communicate with the commentators at all. I even turned off the stream a few times. My popularity is going to drop terribly."

After controlling Aunt Fan Yu, Chen Ge turned off the live broadcast directly, considering that it would involve the privacy of Fan Yu.

He didn't have time to explain to his fans, and the situation at the time didn't allow him to be distracted.

After the homepage was loaded, Chen Ge took a quick glance and suddenly found that the number of collections in his live broadcast room had skyrocketed to 39,000.

"I remember that before the broadcast started, the collection was less than 10,000. What happened in the live broadcast room last night?"

He has been busy with side quests, and has been broadcasting his live stream in a completely Buddhist way, following the principle of tricking as many people as possible into his trap, as long as he doesn't lose anything, but he didn't expect to have an unexpected gain.

When Chen Ge was confused about the situation, Heshan called. As soon as he answered the phone, he heard a noisy voice on the other end: "Boss! I knew you were still alive!"

Chen Ge ignored Heshan's sigh and asked, "What happened in the live broadcast room last night? Why did my favorites and followers increase so much?"

"As soon as you started broadcasting yesterday, your popularity increased, but the growth was very slow. It was not until you started playing the Pen Fairy game that someone broke the news on the platform forum that Qin Guang plagiarized, and then uploaded the recording of your first live broadcast." Heshan's voice gradually became louder: "Qin Guang imitated your reasoning process in the live broadcast room, invited actors to play the murderer, and the scene layout and some lines were exactly the same as your last live broadcast! It's already a hammer, but Qin Guang's fans still refuse to admit it. They slandered you under the post and falsely accused you of following suit."

"That should be the navy that we hired, right? What happened next?"

"Many people went to Qin Guang's live broadcast room to ask, but Qin Guang pretended not to see it. Not only did he not respond, he also muted everyone who mentioned your live broadcast room. But last night when he started broadcasting, his popularity reached 800,000, and all platform resources were used to promote him. The comments were very fast, but there were always some who slipped through the net. Among them, a small number of curious people saw it and ran to your live broadcast room." Heshan became more and more excited as he spoke: "Although your popularity was only 50,000 last night, it was full of passers-by, water army, trolls, Qin Guang fans and your water friends. It was really a melee! There was no room manager to maintain order in your live broadcast room. It has been suspended for half an hour, and all kinds of comments are still swiping the screen. Oh, right! Because of this melee, you seem to have made it to the live broadcast popularity list during the midnight period. Few newcomers can squeeze into that list."

Chen Ge could imagine the chaotic scene in his live broadcast room last night, but it was a blessing in disguise. The number of collections and followers did increase dramatically.

He doesn't lack good content now, what he lacks is exposure.

"Take your time, this is only my second live broadcast." Chen Ge chatted with Heshan for a few more words and then hung up the phone.

He looked through the private messages from netizens on the short video platform. Most of them were meaningless curses. However, there were also some passers-by who disliked Qin Guang and stood firmly on Chen Ge's side, speaking out in support.

At the end, Chen Ge found a familiar account with the same avatar as the original studio account. The other party left him a message, warning him not to do anything behind his back, otherwise he would not be able to continue on this platform.

If other anchors saw this, they would probably be scared and anxious, but Chen Ge was different. Live broadcasts and short videos were just his means of promoting the haunted house.

After deleting the small account, Chen Ge exited the short video page and took out his black mobile phone.

"Muyang Middle School (scream index 2 stars): This scene has been set up. You can go to the underground floor for a visit."

"Attention: Muyang Middle School is a branch of the four-star horror scene, the Psychic Ghost School. Its area is twice the size of an ordinary horror scene. Please familiarize yourself with the internal mechanisms before using it."

After reading the prompt message on the black phone, Chen Ge sat up from his bed: "The area is twice the size of an ordinary horror scene? Could it be that half of Muyang Middle School has been moved in?"

He put on his shoes and ran to the zombie resurrection night scene on the first floor, moved the wooden board away, and looked down.

The abandoned underground parking lot has completely changed its appearance. There are traces of burnt fire on the stairs, unfinished test papers are scattered in the dark corridor, and the doors of the classrooms are half open, the desks and chairs are overturned, and dark shadows are faintly moving around.
