Chapter 0045 – Someone is trying to kill me!
A minute after the short video was released, Chen Ge’s comment section once again exploded!
”The black shadow lying on the bathtub at fifty-six seconds is a special effect, right? It seems to have burrowed out from under the bathtub!”
”Is the one wielding the chopper in the water the anchor himself? Boy! This expression is too real!”
”If that black shadow grits its teeth a bit more, will we not see the anchor again?”
”Toxic, right! I wanted to try to see how long I could hold my breath, but halfway through, this thing popped up for me!”
”Newcomers, run! This video is full of ghosts! Don’t look back! Run!”
”I stared at my cell phone screen for a minute without blinking, now I can’t sleep ……”
”I didn’t dare to look in the mirror after watching your last video, and I didn’t dare to take a shower alone after watching this video of yours! Unscrupulous anchor, eat this fairy with a belly-to-back waist-hugging back drop!”
The comment section was still so hot at four o’clock in the morning, Chen Ge felt relieved, he felt that he had a group of iron fans, and all the effort was worth it.
At the end of turning off the short video page, Chen Ge also didn’t forget to advertise his house of horrors in the comment section, the water friends were all very enthusiastic and left messages saying that they were ready to bring some local specialties from their hometowns to visit him at the house of horrors.
”Buying a ticket to visit the haunted house and sending me local specialties from my hometown, the tourists nowadays are so powerful.” Chen Ge exited the page and was in a much better mood, he stretched his back and left from the Midnight Escape scene holding five muppets.
The dark night passed and dawn arrived, the sky outside the house of horrors was already cloudy.
Chen Ge found wooden boards in the tool room and sealed the staff passageway connected to the Midnight Escape theme, before dealing with the monster in the mirror, this scene he wasn’t going to open up for a while.
”With a ticket price of twenty, Midnight Escape can accommodate seven tourists visiting at the same time, according to fifteen minutes a game, one hour can make a profit of 560 yuan, eight hours a day that’s more than four thousand.” Thinking about this Chen Ge was a little heartbroken, but he wasn’t overwhelmed by money, “Safety first, more scenes can be unlocked in the future, money can’t be earned.”
After blocking out the Midnight Escape scene, Chen Ge went back to the staff lounge, he put a few muppets by the bedside while he changed into clean clothes and went out for a run.
The Peaceful Apartment Trial Mission was waking Chen Ge up at all times, and if he hadn’t run fast enough that night, he would probably be buried in the dirt by now.
At 8:40 a.m., Xu Wan came to work at the haunted house and was a bit surprised to see Chen Ge returning from his sweaty run, in her impression, her boss was not a person who liked to exercise.
A new day came, the guardrail outside the haunted house was pulled open on both sides, and the two men, each in their own way, were ready to open for business.
At nine o’clock tourists were entering the park one after another, the entrance to the haunted house was still cold and quiet, this was the least crowded time in the park.
”Boss, what did you do in the haunted house last night? Why is there water everywhere?”
”Cleaning.” Chen Ge casually made a perfunctory remark, and then immediately instructed, “Pay attention when you’re pretending to be a ghost inside, don’t get too close to the mirror.”
”Why?”
Chen Ge was about to explain to Xu Wan when he suddenly saw Uncle Xu, the park administrator, running over.
”Uncle Xu, is something wrong?” Chen Ge removed his headphones, and he realized that Uncle Xu’s face didn’t look quite right.
”You kid is getting weirder and weirder.” Uncle Xu looked Chen Ge up and down: “Just now, the people from the cafeteria came over and said that the kitchen knives were stolen, and I thought that the thief was poor and crazy and even stole the kitchen knives, and when I turned on the surveillance monitor, you didn’t sleep in the middle of the night to go and take the kitchen knives from the cafeteria, so why did you do it? Carrying two kitchen knives running around is very impressive?”
Being said by Uncle Xu, Chen Ge remembered that the kitchen knife taken from the cafeteria was still thrown in the bathtub.
”Didn’t I just assist the police in solving the case, there’s still a murderer who hasn’t been caught, I took the kitchen knives for self-defense, I’ll sell new kitchen knives to the cafeteria tomorrow.” He also didn’t know if chopping vegetables with a chopper that had chopped a ghost would be harmful to one’s body again, so he didn’t dare to return those two knives to Uncle Xu.
”I am getting more and more confused about you, are you kid doing something bad behind my back?”
”What bad thing can I do with two kitchen knives? You can rest assured.”
Uncle Xu was half convinced that he had just opened the garden and he still had a lot of things to do, so he didn’t look into it deeply, he walked over to Chen Ge and took out a tightly wrapped plastic bag from his pocket, “You can take this 5,000 and use it first, if you have any difficulties, you must give me a word.”
”Uncle, thanks a lot, I should be able to pay you back this weekend.”
”No need, just make less trouble for me.”
Waiting for Uncle Xu to leave, Chen Ge stuffed the money into his inner pocket of his clothes, he leaned against the guardrail and thought about what to do with the money.
”Five thousand is just enough to install surveillance, now the haunted house’s internal space is full, expanding it before adding new horror scenes, leasing an underground parking lot is a good idea, I just don’t know how much the park will charge for rent.”
A whole bunch of problems were waiting for Chen Ge to solve, and he also felt a headache, “My biggest problem is the lack of money! I don’t know when the bounty will come down, should I go and rush it?”
He unconsciously looked into the distance, and as he scanned over a certain place, his pupils narrowed and he suddenly saw a strange tourist.
Wearing a duck-tongued cap and long sleeves, with his hands in his shirt pockets, the man wandered in the middle of several entertainment facilities, seemingly torn between which one to play.
”This person looks a bit familiar.” Because of the existence of Yin pupils, Chen Ge’s eyesight was better than the vast majority of people, and the man probably didn’t know that he had already been discovered.
”Should we stop him?”
While Chen Ge was hesitating, there happened to be tourists who wanted to visit the haunted house, and he started to get busy, gradually forgetting about it.
By noon, when Chen Ge and Xu Wan were about to go eat, he once again saw the suspicious-looking tourist near the haunted house.
”This person didn’t go near the haunted house all morning, and specifically waited for Xu Wan and I to go to dinner and came over when the haunted house was empty, what does he want?” Chen Ge told Xu Wan to go eat first and he returned alone, that tourist realized that someone was coming and directly turned around and left the paradise, walking away very dryly.
”Have I seen him somewhere before?” Eyelids fluttered gently, Chen Ge didn’t eat his meal and ran directly into the park’s comprehensive management office, and after asking the staff for permission, he looked up the person’s surveillance.
This person had deliberately avoided some obvious surveillance probes, and he had kept his hands in his pockets from the time he entered the park in the morning to the time he left, and even when he smoked in the middle of the day, he was holding a cigarette in his mouth and using one hand to light it.
What’s even weirder is that after he purchased the park ticket, he only played the Ferris wheel as a program in the park, and he played it three times in a row.
”Something’s wrong, this person is very wrong!”
