Chapter 0260: Let’s match his performance
The cold wind blew through the corridor, the blank test papers flipped up and down, and the classrooms on both sides would make strange noises when there was clearly no one in them.
The two teams of Kong Xiangming and Yang Chen searched the rooms on both sides left and right, and it only took them three minutes to get to the end of the corridor, where they met at the door of the last classroom.
”The haunted house boss changed the location of the school sign again.” Yang Chen’s face wasn’t too good, “How many did you guys find?”
”Not a single one.” Wei Wu said frankly, the purpose of him and Kong Xiangming coming in was not to look for the school license plate to begin with.
”What’s the point of not finding anything?” Wang Diem was a hothead, “Lao Yang, I think it’s better if we don’t bring the others with us, bringing them along is also a burden.”
”There’s always a process of adaptation when you first come in, the terrain here is complicated, and the owner of the haunted house has studied psychology, so it’s normal that he can’t find anything because he’s hidden in an extremely tricky location.” Yang Chen vaguely felt that these two people are a bit strange, but can’t tell exactly where it’s wrong: “This last classroom has three school licenses hidden in the bottom of it, so don’t split up, go in together, and get it over with quickly!”
Pushing open the door of the last classroom, Yang Chen was the first to rush in, “Don’t dawdle, the seniors have specially explained that we must be quick! The longer we stay, the more horrible things will happen!”
The three medical students cooperated well each responsible for an area, they lowered their heads and did not meet the dolls’ eyes, nor did they touch the dolls, when they saw the school license plate they immediately reached out to pick it up, their movements were fast and accurate, it looked like they had practiced many times over.
Wei Wu and Kong Xiangming did not enter the classroom, they both stood outside the door, looking at the mannequins that were either sitting or standing in different postures.
”It’s like I see the soul of a living person in those dolls.” Kong Xiangming squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, his voice was so low that only Wei Wu next to him could hear it.
”Treating the living as toys and not having peace after death, what a vicious fellow.” A hint of fear flashed under Wei Wu’s eyes, “Do you think those dolls could be the people who had offended him before?”
”I’m afraid it’s not that simple, there are a large number of mannequins, and I suspect that a large portion of them are unknowing innocents, or even tourists who come to visit.” Kong Xiangming gently inhaled a breath, “So many people will go missing in the city every year, maybe some of them have turned into mannequins in the haunted house, this time the target is even more brutal than we imagined, we must be careful.”
After hearing Kong Xiangming’s words, Wei Wu shrunk back and looked at the few students with a hint of pity in his gaze.
How could the tourists possibly know that the mannequins scaring them might be the tourists who had once disappeared.
”Come in and help! What are you waiting outside for?” Wang Yan finished searching the area he was responsible for, and when he saw Wei Wu and Kong Xiangming still standing outside, there was a hint of fire in his heart, and he spoke a little heavier.
”Say less.” Yang Chen stopped Wang Yan, the three of them found a long time in the classroom, but only found two school tags.
”The situation has changed, we need to speed up.” Yang Chen walked out of the classroom with the school license plates, and as he passed by Wei Wu and Kong Xiangming, he felt more and more strange about these two people, “Both of you, since you have also agreed to work together, then show a little bit of sincerity.”
”Don’t count on them, we’d better go and look for it ourselves.” Wang Yan spoke very nonchalantly, he and Li Xue followed behind, and the three students drilled into the bathroom next to the classroom again without stopping for a moment.
Wei Wu and Kong Xiangming didn’t follow them, the two of them looked at each other.
”These three students are quite interesting, should we try making them into dolls as well?” A streak of blood surfaced on Wei Wu’s neck, brightly colored.
Kong Xiangming shook his head, “Be careful of alerting the target.”
In the toilet Yang Chen opened one compartment after another and found another school sign in the crack between the fifth compartment and the wall.
Looking at the eyes painted all over the cubicles, Yang Chen winced, “This haunted house is really sick.”
”Old Yang, those two tourists outside feel a bit weird.” Li Xue was the only girl among the three, she was not very old, but she already had all the advantages of a female forensic pathologist, bold and meticulous, possessing a very keen insight.
”I can see it too.” Old Yang signaled Li Xue to keep her voice down, “Those two are too calm, facing a completely unknown scene, yet they look like they don’t care, they seem to be very familiar with this environment.”
”That ugly-looking guy among them often shows a thoughtful look, as if he’s plotting something.” Li Xue nodded approvingly, “I’m a bit skeptical about the identity of their tourists, do you guys think they could be haunted house actors as well?”
Yang Chen and Wang Yan were both stunned by Li Xue’s words, a cool air surging up their spines to their brains.
”It’s really possible!”
”I’ve heard Heshan say that that haunted house boss can do anything, once he was just mixing amongst the tourists, and as a result, seven people went in to visit, and it was only when they were taking pictures that they realized that there were a total of eight people around them ……”
”No wonder they didn’t look scared at all, yet not a single school sign was found.”
The more the three students discussed, the more horrible they felt, “Luckily we noticed it in advance, if we were posed by them at the most critical time, not to mention the previous success, we will definitely also be scared to pee.”
”This haunted house has reached the point of heartlessness in order to scare people! There’s no humanity at all!”
Yang Chen took out his notebook and a water pen, and added another one after the three taboos – don’t trust strangers!
”Even the most cunning fox can’t defeat a good hunter, and since we’ve guessed their identities, we’re one step closer to success!” Yang Chen was very good at boosting morale, “Let’s pretend we haven’t spotted them, prepare ourselves mentally, and then go along with their performance, and wait until they show their fangs before revealing their identities, I’m sure the expressions on their faces will be wonderful by then!”
”That’s right, we can just collect the school cards with all our might, this will firstly paralyze them, and secondly even if we guess wrong, it won’t be too embarrassing.”
”Playing a haunted house also requires guessing the identity, before I thought that the reward of 200,000 for clearing all the scenes was just a gimmick, only after personally visiting and experiencing it did I realize that the 200,000 reward is really a bit less.”
”Alright, there is a time limit to pass the level, and us staying here for too long will also cause them to be suspicious.” Yang Chen waved towards the two of them, “Later on, let’s try to find that couple, they are angry, we can use them to attract the attention of these two haunted house actors.”
The three forensic science students discussed the matter and walked out of the bathroom.
A few people stopped at the first fork in the road of the Twilight Sun High School scene, and after a moment of hesitation, headed towards the road where the deep well was located.
……
Chen Ge entered the staff lounge to bring the repeater with him, then dragged Gu Feiyu to the entrance of the underground scene.
After Gu Feiyu’s bitter pleas, he eventually did not force the other party to enter the underground scene with him.
”Xiao Gu, after I go down, you go to the horror scene next to me and push out those large props and press them onto the wooden board.” Chen Ge checked the various props on his body to make sure there was no mistake and then walked into the middle of the underground scene, “Just stand by the side, I won’t call you, and whatever happens down there, don’t move the props out of the way.”
Gu Feiyu looked at Chen Ge, who was wearing the uniform of Dr. Cranium Shatterer, how could he not connect him with the haunted house actor, always feeling that his boss was not there to scare people at all, but to commit murder.
