"I also saw it online. I heard that the horror house here is very scary. I don't know if it's true or not. I lined up as soon as it opened, but I didn't expect that there were people who came earlier than me. We have to wait for the third batch."
"I saw it on the school forum. A girl from our school came here yesterday and fainted from shock."
"Are you guys planning to go to the campus theme too? Let's go together. We need enough people to get in."
Lin Churan was still wearing her red dress. While others were still putting on makeup and changing their makeup, she had already sat in her seat.
"I really envy you for having such a fair face. You don't even need to wear makeup." It was the same chatty female NPC sitting next to Lin Churan.
Lin Churan felt much better when he thought about the scene that would scare those living people to death.
Seeing that the other party ignored her, the female NPC didn't mind and continued talking to herself until she heard the player start talking through the headset, and then she stopped.
Ten minutes later, the player's voice was heard.
"Is this the classroom?"
"Yes, yes, yes. People on the internet say the scariest thing is the female ghost in red. She has all sorts of ways to scare people."
"I still don't understand how her mouth got so wide. The props they have here are so realistic."
When everyone arrived at the classroom, they were not looking for props to pass the level, but to see the female ghost in red.
"Wow! It's really cold!"
The players came up one by one and touched the arm of the female ghost in red.
Lin Churan clenched his fists, and suddenly a rustling sound was heard in the room, with a faint and cold feeling.
"What's that sound?"
Then the sound of bones turning was heard again.
Everyone looked around in panic.
"Are you here to play with me?" Lin Churan's face, which was blocked by her long black hair, gradually emerged. Her facial features were bleeding, and there was a strange smile at the corner of her mouth. There was only the white of her eyes, a little black in the middle of her eyes, and bloodshot around her eyes.
Seeing that everyone's attention was attracted by her, Lin Churan suddenly pulled out the tongue from her mouth. In the sight of everyone, the tongue was still jumping around after being pulled in her hand, and even endless blood spurted out of the other party's mouth.
"Ah! Ghost!"
"I don't want to play anymore, this is a real ghost!"
"Ah! Run!"
Batch after batch of players were scared away when they reached Lin Churan's level, so much so that the NPCs behind her level were so idle that they started playing games.
"Come on, Sister Lin!"
Some people even encouraged Lin Churan, saying that if he worked hard enough, no one would be able to reach the next level, and they would naturally have some free time.
It was time to pay the bill again, and the manager looked at Lin Churan with a complicated expression.
Because of the other party, their Pistachio Horror House became famous, and many students from nearby came to see them. The manager was both happy and worried.
She was happy that their fame had increased, but she was worried that the other party was just a temporary worker.
"Xiao Lin, what do you think about the official employee thing I told you about?"
Lin Churan shook her head. She liked this place very much, but she also knew that she couldn't stay in one place for a long time. It would be bad for both the living and herself.
"Okay." The manager gave her today's salary of 2,100. Thanks to her scary and terrifying methods, players could be replaced every ten minutes or so, so Lin Churan could naturally earn more.
After Lin Churan left, an employee spoke to the manager.
"Manager, the NPCs behind Lin Churan's level are all idle playing games today. Should we ask them to take it easy next time we scare them? Don't let those players not even be able to play the next level."
The manager shook his head. "Are you stupid? This level is just right now. If she restrains herself and doesn't scare the customers, will they still come to play? They're here for her."
"Well, today I was a little scared when I saw the scene on the camera. The tongue was pulled out of her mouth and was still jumping around. Why didn't I think our props were scary before? The ketchup on her looked like blood." The employee was amazed.
"Xiao Lin was born to do this job. Look at her expression. Even standing in the same room with her gives me a cold feeling," said the manager.
"But you do have a point. The people behind Xiaolin's level are all slacking off. That's not okay. How about this? Let's move Xiaolin to the end of the level tomorrow to give players a better experience."
"But if this happens, they might play for longer and won't be able to receive so many guests in a day." The employee wondered, saying that if this happens, the cash flow will also decrease.
"That's true," the manager said after a moment's hesitation. "How about this? Push Xiaolin's checkpoint back a bit so they can get the experience without staying there too long. Have the others learn how to scare people like Xiaolin. After all, she's not a full-time employee, so we don't know when she'll leave."
The employee scratched his head and said, "I really can't learn this. I don't understand why the same prop looks so realistic in Xiaolin's hands."
Of course, they didn't know that Lin Churan didn't use the props he got at all. The tongue was real, the cracked corners of his mouth were real, and the arm being pulled off was real.
…
An Jingzhi suddenly received a call from Zhang Chu.
The other party very earnestly invited him to a private restaurant for dinner.
When An Jingzhi arrived, Zhang Chu was already there.
"Brother, you're here? Come on, come on, sit down quickly, order whatever you want to eat, don't be polite."
An Jingzhi looked at him suspiciously and ordered a few dishes.
Soon all the dishes were served. An Jingzhi ate while asking, "What's wrong? Did you get rich recently? Or is it your girlfriend's 60th birthday?"
Zhang Chu was speechless. An Jingzhi was bringing up something that was irrelevant. "Don't mention it. I just got a few business deals and made a little money." People looked down on him at all.
"Then why did you suddenly think of treating me to a meal?"
Zhang Chu asked, "You haven't been online? Director Jiang's movie has started to promote, and he's publicly praising a supporting actor. Didn't my cousin Hu Le introduce them to extras? He recognized him immediately and told me about it."
"That extra is your relative! You've become rich! I didn't expect your relative to be so skilled in martial arts that he could even climb such a high building with his bare hands."
An Jingzhi took the video on the other person's phone and took a look. Wasn't the video he was talking about the incident when the wire hanging went wrong and the building ghost almost fell down?
But the video did not say that it was because of their work mistakes. It just praised them for inviting real masters to climb the building with their bare hands, and expressed regret that they did not sign the other party.
As the two were chatting, An Jingzhi's phone rang.
"Promotion? That's fine. How much is it? This... I really don't have time."
The other party offered them 50,000 yuan to go with them to promote the movie. An Jingzhi was envious, but had no choice but to give up. Going around to promote the movie would inevitably require taking a car or a plane, which was unsafe, so he had to reluctantly refuse.
