Chapter 0474 – The Most Suitable Person to Become a Teammate
Tail’s cell phone came out with Tiger Tooth’s voice, warm, soft, shining into her heart like sunshine.
”Sister Tiger Tooth, listen to me, that ghost is hiding in the printer, it dragged me to this side of the cave, you can see it if you move the printer.”
”Okay, don’t worry, we’ll meet up soon.”
Listening to the voice on the other side of the phone, Tails was still a bit uneasy, “You guys make sure to head down the left passage! When I just came out of the cave, the sound of wheels rolling sounded behind me, something was chasing after me, I didn’t dare to think too much at that time so I just picked a random direction and ran, waiting for that sound to disappear before I dared to call you.”
”We’ve already come over, you walk further, don’t be afraid and don’t hang up.” Tiger’s voice kept coming out from the phone, she seemed like an attentive big sister.
In the company of that voice, Tails felt her body regain strength as she walked towards the deeper darkness.
……
”The phone can’t get through.”
Nan stood in the middle of the fork in the road, looking at the two paths to the left and right that were painted white, deep in thought.
”Which way to go?”
This question had puzzled him for a long time, the underground corpse vault scene was completely different from other horror scenes, this place was like a labyrinth with an extremely complicated internal structure, and they were now deep in it.
”No one is answering, the haunted house owner is meticulous, there should be a signal blocker installed in this scene.” Xiao Li tried to explain it with science.
”It’s not a shielding device, the signal is full, but there’s just no answer.” Tigress put away her cell phone as she stood next to Nan, a hint of worry in her eyes, “Tails might have accidentally dropped his cell phone somewhere in the process of running for his life.”
Tigress said the answer that was closest to reality, which was also the explanation she gave herself.
”What do we do next? Another fork in the road, which way to go?” Yang Chen looked at Tigress, who was using her cell phone in the haunted house, and subconsciously moved away from her, the situation was a bit off, and he wasn’t willing to be the head of the pack anymore, trying to keep a low profile.
His eyes secretly swept over the few people around him, the uneasiness in Yang Chen’s heart grew stronger, he secretly paid attention, vowing to find out the source of that uneasiness.
”The two roads don’t have any markings, they are all painted white, according to what that medical student said, this is the corpse transportation passage, a road for the dead, we’d better not just go in.” After Xiao Li finished speaking, he glanced at Bai Qiulin, he was probably trying to get Bai Qiulin’s support, but unfortunately, Bai Qiulin’s attention hadn’t been on him since the beginning.
”We can only take a gamble.” Tiger Tooth and Ah Nan didn’t consult with the others either, the two of them looked at each other and directly chose the passage to the left to go, “Tail’s cell phone was able to get through, but there was no answer, so it should have been dropped during the run. And the fact that it could make her run for her life in a hurry, and she couldn’t even care about picking up her cell phone, means that she was definitely being chased by something horrible at that time, most likely that kind of small car with wheels. In that situation, she would definitely choose the passageway closer to her, and the left passageway is closer to her in comparison.”
”This speculation of yours is more like self-deception in my opinion, completely untenable.” Yang Chen was young after all, he really couldn’t listen to it and retorted, “Then what if the terrifying monster chasing the tail rushed out from the left passage? At this time, she can only run to the right, and if we go back to the left passage, we will only collide with those monsters.”
”Relatively speaking, the probability of Tail entering the left passage is greater, and that’s enough for me.” Tiger’s Tooth and Ah Nan entered the middle of the left passage without looking back.
The two editors insisted on going, so in order to keep the team intact, Yang Chen had no choice but to follow them even if he wasn’t satisfied in his heart.
The team of twelve had already turned into nine, and if it split further, the chances of passing the level would be even slimmer.
Sighing softly, Yang Chen felt more and more like he couldn’t see through the haunted house boss, “With my understanding of the boss, after I get the photos, the real horror of this scene will be shown, now it’s already just an appetizer.”
Just a little deeper thought, Yang Chen forehead can not stop sweating, the other party obviously has not yet power, this just entered the scene a few minutes, the original screwed together team has been broken apart. At this rate, not to mention passing the level, whether or not they could enter the core area to find the photo was a problem.
”This haunted house boss is also too perverted, completely not leaving any way to live at all Ah!”
Yang Chen sighed in his heart, but his expression didn’t change a bit, he was worried that his emotions would affect the others.
”We can’t rely on others, at this time, we can only take ourselves as the core and prioritize our own people.” Yang Chen glanced back, this batch of tourists who had gone in to visit the haunted house had been divided into several small groups.
The two editors were in the front, Bai Qiulin and Xiao Li were two casual visitors walking together, and at the end of the group were Old Zhou and Duan Yue.
”Those two editors don’t listen to advice and have too much of their own ideas, Bai Qiulin this person is high-minded and feels like the city is deep.” Yang Chen looked around and finally placed his eyes on Lao Zhou, “This young couple is kind, the husband has a strong sense of justice and is forgiving, the wife is soft, the two of them are very suitable to be teammates, it is necessary for me to get in touch with them more.”
Yang Chen talked to Li Xue in a low voice, slowed down his speed and took the initiative to come over to Old Zhou’s side.
Realizing that Yang Chen had taken the initiative to run to him for a chat, Old Zhou revealed a strong wariness, he still remembered Yang Chen’s cold speech just now when the chef ran away and lost him.
He did not give Yang Chen a good face, in his opinion, if Yang Chen could abandon the chef, he would abandon himself in the future.
”What are you doing over here?” Old Zhou strained his face, but it was Duan Yue who kept persuading from the side.
Yang Chen apologized in a low voice, voiced out his hardships, and seriously analyzed the situation for Old Zhou, and only in the end did Old Zhou’s complexion ease a little.
But in Yang Chen proposed to join forces with the old week, the old week did not even think about it directly rejected, aside Duan Yue asked, the old week with just enough to let Yang Chen heard the voice said: “Join forces with them, is with the tiger for the skin, we have less heart eyes, don’t be sold by them at that time, but also to help them count the money.”
Duan Yue seemed to understand and nodded her head, but next to Yang Chen, there was only a bitter smile, but the more Lao Zhou said this, the more it strengthened his idea of pulling Lao Zhou together.
He didn’t know why, the uneasiness in his heart was getting stronger and stronger, it seemed that danger was lurking around him, even hidden among the tourists, so at this time he had to unite more forces to deal with unexpected situations.
As Yang Chen continued to lobby Lao Zhou, a new change appeared in the passage in front of him.
The odor of formalin in the air thickened, and a gust of cold wind blew out from an open iron door at the end of the passage.
