Chapter 20
Everyone started looking for a similar brand to what Shen Yunzhe mentioned, but unfortunately no one found one.
In fact, some people had discovered before that this exhibition hall had no route map or house number, but at that time they just thought it was a private exhibition hall and did not have so many standards. Now think about it, they really overlooked the most important point.
No one had lunch, for they were afraid that they would eat another baby eyeball.
"Is this really an exhibition hall?" Feng Zhou, a veteran player who'd played three games, asked. "Did you guys notice when you went out to check just now? Aside from the lobby and the staff area over here, everything else is closed. Some doors won't even open."
Qiulan: "Yeah, I suddenly wanted to go to the bathroom just now, but I found that all the toilets inside were closed, so I ended up coming back to use it."
Liu Yaran: "Not only is the door closed, don't you think this exhibition hall is too empty?"
From the lobby to the staff area they could enter, the whole world was empty, there was nothing. If they had not confirmed before coming in that this was the Wonders Exhibition Hall and the name of the game hall was also this, they would not have thought that this was an exhibition hall.
There is nothing in the exhibition hall.
Shen Yunzhe looked at everyone and asked, "You didn't find a single house number?"
"Apart from your propaganda hall, we don't even know where these closed doors are." Ding Yue also frowned. "By the way, is Luo Yiyue okay?"
When Luo Yiyue was mentioned, everyone present fell silent.
After a long while, Qiulan finally spoke, "She's been locking herself in the dormitory and won't come out. She must be mentally broken. I think she'll be fine tomorrow. People can't skip meals. One or two meals is fine, but three meals won't last."
But everyone present knew very well that it was hard to say whether Luo Yiyue could survive until tomorrow.
Of course, no one present was sure whether they would survive to see tomorrow.
Time passed quickly, and it was easy to visit all the places around. Everyone could only return to the dormitory or sit in the restaurant in silence. Most of them planned to wait here to see who brought the meal to the table. After all, the meal could not appear out of thin air.
While everyone was waiting, Qiulan was knocking on the dormitory door.
"Luo Yiyue," Qiulan said, "Don't lock yourself in. It's time for dinner. Come out and have something to eat."
"I don't want to eat!" Luo Yiyue's voice came from inside, "Leave me alone!"
"Then open the door and let me in to get something." Qiulan was clearly impatient. "You wanted to share a dormitory with me in the first place, so why are you refusing to let me in now?"
"Open the door quickly."
Luo Yiyue's sharp voice could even be heard by Shen Yunzhe and others who were sitting at the dining table.
"I won't open it!" Luo Yiyue screamed, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. The audience has told me. You just want to trick me out. As long as I die, you'll be safe!"
The air froze for a few seconds.
Only then did Shen Yunzhe remember the live broadcast that he had ignored for a long time.
He quickly turned on the live broadcast, and the next moment he saw a barrage of comments flying around, and the audience was obviously very excited.
Someone will definitely die tonight. Don't open the door for her. If you don't, she will be exposed outside the dormitory. The ghost will definitely kill her, and then she will die for you.
[She has the same idea. If you die, she won't die.]
"You have to live. You're getting married next week. How can you die here?"
[Your happy life has just begun, and she, with her old-fashioned airs, looks like the kind of capitalist who exploits others.]
Qiulan was so furious after watching the comments on the screen that she kicked the door fiercely. "Luo Yiyue! I'm warning you! Even if you don't let me into the dormitory, I won't necessarily die. And you won't necessarily survive if you hide in the dormitory!"
"Don't scare me, I know, I know everything!" Luo Yiyue also shouted.
Qiulan's face turned blue and red. She really didn't expect that she would be locked out of the dormitory. There really was a useless newcomer who listened to the audience.
But it was this behavior that made her very anxious, because if Luo Yiyue was obeying the audience, the difficulty of her game would be reduced, but she was the targeted object, and the difficulty of the game was increasing. In other words: if she was forced to stay in the restaurant, there was a great probability that she would really encounter a ghost.
"Don't worry about her." Ding Yue couldn't help but say, "If you don't mind, you can come to my dormitory in the evening."
Ding Yue's roommate just glared at Ding Yue with an ugly expression. It was obvious that he didn't want Qiulan to come to their dormitory at all.
But Ding Yue had already said so, and he couldn't refute it now, not to mention that Qiulan was a pretty enough woman, so he complained in a low voice and said nothing more.
After kicking the dormitory door again, Qiulan turned around and returned to the dining table.
It was exactly six o'clock when the clock hanging on the wall rang, and almost instantly, a fragrance rushed into their nostrils.
Ding Yue carefully pulled the corner of Shen Yunzhe's clothes and pointed towards the kitchen.
There was suddenly an extra person in the kitchen. He was wearing a white chef's uniform and was cooking diligently. Because of the glass, they couldn't see the chef's appearance clearly. They only thought that he looked very skinny.
After a while, the chef came over with the plates. Everyone present fell silent, and some people were so frightened that they almost fell to the ground.
"Everyone is here." The chef placed the plates in front of them in a hoarse voice. He was so skinny as if he had been dried in the wind for three years, and the red, shriveled muscles could be seen through his skin. That was not enough, there were no eyes in his eye sockets, and his eyelids drooped on his cheeks. If he raised his head slightly, everyone present could see his empty eye sockets.
The chef said hoarsely, "Thank you for your hard work."
"...It's not hard." Qiulan finally replied, "Thank you."
"Everyone, eat more. We've been busy lately, and so many people have come to the exhibition hall. Even I got a raise." The chef stuffed everyone's bowl full. "The director said he'll give us all bonuses after this busy period. Look, he even bought all this meat as a reward for us."
The chef grabbed the meat from the plate and started eating. Oil dripped down his hands. "It smells so good. This meat smells so good."
"Eat, why don't you eat?"
The aroma of meat and the strange feeling surged together, and no one present had the courage to pick up chopsticks.
"We'll eat right away." Qiulan said with a pale face, "You go back first. We'll get back to work after we finish eating."
"Yes, yes, I can't disturb you." The chef grabbed the meat and ate while moving back to the kitchen.
But even after the chef left, the restaurant remained silent.
Finally, Ding Yue looked at Shen Yunzhe, "Aren't you a doctor? Can you tell that this meat is pork?"
"You're asking me to look at bones, but I'm a doctor, not a god. Cooked human flesh looks the same as pork." Shen Yunzhe said helplessly, "Have you never read the news? Many murderers cook their victims after killing them to destroy any traces of the body. Some even add seasonings and seasonal vegetables."
The people present who already had grim expressions now looked even uglier.
They listlessly threw away the broth and began to eat the steamed buns dry, occasionally retching once or twice because of Shen Yunzhe's description.
They barely finished their dinner. As it was getting darker, everyone chose to go back to the staff dormitory. Qiulan had not given up yet. She stood at the dormitory door and knocked.
"Luo Yiyue." Qiulan called her, "Listen to me, we really don't intend to harm you."
The dormitory was dead silent, and Luo Yiyue did not answer.
"Aren't you scared of being alone? You found a doll, and there might be something wrong with it. I can still look after you. Don't be so distrustful of others."
"Luo Yiyue?"
Still no one answered.
Qiulan frowned slightly and put her ear to the door. "Luo Yiyue, can you hear me?"
Ding Yue: "Stop shouting, Sister Qiu, come to me."
"Something's not right." Qiulan knocked on the door, calling out, "Luo Yiyue, are you okay?"
Shen Yunzhe realized that something was wrong. He walked to Qiulan. Qiulan and Shen Yunzhe looked at each other. She shook her head with a complicated look, as if she heard some strange sound. Shen Yunzhe carefully moved over and put his ear as close to the door as possible.
Crunch.
It was like the subtle sound of a mouse gnawing on food.
Or is it... chewing sound?
Is anyone eating in there?
"Is there any food in the dormitory?" Shen Yunzhe asked Qiulan in a low voice.
Qiulan shook her head, "No, I checked carefully before leaving."
Then why is there a chewing sound coming from inside?
"No, something must have happened!" Shen Yunzhe looked at the person next to him, "Come and help open the door!"
As he said that, he kicked the dormitory door hard, but it was stuck tightly from the inside and there was no movement. Ding Yue and others hurried over and banged on the door. Even if there was no Luo Yiyue's voice in such a loud noise, any fool would know that there was definitely something wrong.
The bolt was finally knocked open, and the door slammed against the wall and bounced back. The moment the door opened, a strong smell of blood rushed out of the room.
Luo Yiyue was lying on her back on the ground, staring blankly at the ceiling with her eyes open, her mouth slightly open, but there was a huge bloody hole in her right eye. Her eye had been gouged out, and a plastic doll rolled on her face. It was a low-quality doll head.
"Ugh!" Duan Ziyao covered his mouth and rushed out. After a while, he heard the sound of vomiting coming from the toilet.
"Dead?" Qiulan's voice was still confused, and it was hard to tell whether she was nervous or relaxed.
Ding Yue nodded, "Dead."
"But we didn't hear any sound. How could she have died?" Lu Ronghua seemed a little overwhelmed. "We were all in the restaurant, so close to the dormitory."
Shen Yunzhe walked to the side of the corpse and reached out to pick up the blood-stained doll on the ground.
"Hey!" The faces of everyone present changed. They didn't expect that Shen Yunzhe would dare to go in. Not only did he go in, but he even dared to hold the bloody doll in his hands.
"Confirm something."
Shen Yunzhe came over with the doll. He held up the doll's head and showed it to the people present. "Did you find anything?"
When everyone saw the doll up close, their hearts skipped a beat.
Because they clearly saw that there was an eye in the eye socket of the inferior doll that obviously did not belong to the doll. The eye was cloudy and still had some red flesh and blood. It was obviously a human eye. There was no need to think about it. This was the eyeball dug out from Luo Yiyue's right eye.
