Chapter 0684 – The Ripper and Dr. Cranium Crusher
That manga artist’s pen name was Kurosaki Orochi, and he was very famous abroad.
As for his real name, not many people knew it, Chen Ge searched for a long time and only saw a person who claimed to be Kurosaki’s landlord breaking the news.
He claimed that he had seen Kurosaki’s ID card, and that this manga artist, who was very famous abroad, had a real name that was actually very grounded, called Li Satomi.
”Kurosaki Orochi, Li Satomi, it’s hard to imagine that this is the same person just by listening to the name.”
Chen Ge looked towards the entrance of the haunted house, Kurosaki was staring at the trench coat man, perhaps they both detected a different aura from each other.
Now there were a total of seven people inside the haunted house security door, Kurosaki and the female assistant stood on the left side, the trench coat man stood alone on the right side, the remaining four people were obviously together, but they were in groups of two or two pretending not to be very familiar with each other.
”The Liwan Town scene is huge, seven people going in probably can’t even make a wave.” If they were tourists who had gone through the three-star scene test, Chen Ge might still put them in directly, but these guys were all newcomers.
Those few guys who had bad intentions towards the haunted house were fine, but Kurosaki and the female assistant were innocent.
Chen Ge was a generous person, he wouldn’t be irresponsible to others just because they looked down on the haunted house and didn’t find the scenes scary.
After thinking about it, Chen Ge walked up to the seven people, “The new scene covers a large area, it’s a ten-person scene, let’s wait for three more people to go in.”
”Haunted houses are places where the fewer people the more fun it is, seven people is already more than enough.” The trench coat man had been beaten by tourists before, he was not afraid of ghosts and monsters, instead he was worried that too many tourists would not be convenient for him to do bad things.
”Yeah, ten people going in together, just watching people, crowded and noisy, what’s the point?” Kurosaki also opened his mouth, he was a grumpy person who spoke without thinking, wherever he thought of.
”I advise you guys to wait a little longer, the boss is doing it for your own good.” A young man in the crowd opened his mouth, that person’s voice was familiar to Chen Ge, he looked in that direction and saw that Yang Chen was frowning and staring at the bedpan next to the haunted house.
”You don’t go to class anymore and run to me every day?” Probably because of the underground corpse vault scene, Chen Ge now felt very friendly when he saw the students of the Jiujiang School of Forensic Medicine.
Yang Chen was a bit afraid of Chen Ge and would habitually back away when he heard Chen Ge’s voice: “I haven’t cleared the underground corpse vault yet, so I definitely won’t challenge the new scene, so just die!”
”Little Yang, you’re being too outgoing with me, at the expense of me gifting you coupons in the first place.” Chen Ge raised his cell phone, and on the screen was an introduction about the new scene, “Really don’t you want to consider it? As far as I know, your school only has the Underground Corpse Vault scenario left to clear, so when you’ve raided the Underground Corpse Vault and taken the new scenario, the two hundred thousand yuan cash reward will be yours. I’m a person you know, say one thing, as long as you pass the level, the bonus will be issued on the spot.”
Any scene that had been challenged by the Jiujiang School of Forensic Medicine was bound to be a big hit behind it, and in Chen Ge’s eyes, those medical students were simply their own mascots.
”I’ll forget about it, but I brought a few people over for you today.” Yang Chen looked back and waved towards the side, and two men and one woman walked out from the group.
The one walking alone at the front was Wang Yan, Chen Ge had seen him before, when he followed Yang Chen he had challenged the Twilight Sun Middle School and the underground corpse vault scene together.
A man and a woman behind him were chatting vigorously, the woman was wearing a loose strapless T-shirt on top and white hot pants underneath, which was both sexy and sweet at the same time, revealing the beauty unique to her age group.
The male was taller than Wang Diem, with obvious muscle lines, dressed casually, but all of his body was brand-name, much more handsome than the plainly dressed Wang Diem.
”Wang Diem, my best friend, you know. The woman in the back is his girlfriend, and that guy is a special enrollment for sports in Jiujiang Normal, and is also Wang Diem’s girlfriend’s high school classmate, said to be the school grass of their high school.” Yang Chen whispered.
”That’s Wang Diem’s girlfriend? I really didn’t see it if you didn’t say it.” Chen Ge suddenly realized, “Wait, why are you telling me this?”
Yang Chen scowled and gestured to Chen Ge, making him cry and laugh.
Without waiting for him to respond, the three Wang Yan people had already walked over.
”Give me three tickets for the new scene.”
It could be heard that Wang Diem was not in a good mood, and his voice was a bit tired.
”Sure? The new scene is terrifying, you mustn’t get carried away.”
”It’s fine, I’ve challenged the three-star scene so many times, this new scene shouldn’t be much of a problem.”
”Alright, with you as a senior tourist, I’m relieved.” Chen Ge handed out the tickets to the three, then led them along into the middle of the haunted house, “The pens are on the table, come sign the waiver first.”
Ten tourists stopped in the aisle, looking a bit crowded, the number of pens on the table was limited, and they had to wait again, the trench coat man was a bit dissatisfied, “Is it necessary? I’ve played haunted houses so many times, and I’ve never really seen it get this formal.”
”Yeah, visiting a haunted house is like bungee jumping, only to realize in the end that it’s just hype and psychological innuendo.” The tall student who looked as shiny as the sun with a full-body name tag said casually, standing next to Wang Diem’s girlfriend, and talked about his previous bungee jumping and diving trips to the beach.
Compared to being chased around by ghosts in a haunted house, it was obviously diving and bungee jumping that aroused the girl’s curiosity more, and Wang Diem’s girlfriend listened attentively, and from time to time would even chime in with a few words.
”Don’t talk nonsense, it’s better to be honest when it’s your first time to visit a haunted house.” Wang Diem handed the man the pen he was holding.
”Thank you.” the male student signed his name indifferently and placed the agreement on the table.
”Zhang Huo?” Chen Ge looked at the name on the agreement and put it away solemnly, “You wrote this name yourself, and I haven’t induced you in any way, it’s you who voluntarily signed your name and came to visit voluntarily.”
He had just heard Wang Diem say that Zhang Huo was visiting a haunted house for the first time, visiting a haunted house for the first time and directly coming to challenge the three and a half star scenes of his own haunted house, this kind of behavior could no longer be used as a death to describe.
”Are you being funny?”
”It’s not too late for you to quit now.” Chen Ge persuaded once more.
”Is playing a haunted house as bad as that? It’s too late, it’s not interesting at all for you to keep reminding like this.” Zhang Huo disregarded Chen Ge’s advice and continued to chat with Wang Yan’s girlfriend again.
The other party refused to leave, so Chen Ge couldn’t do anything about it, he put away the other people’s waivers to make sure there were no problems, and then began to tell the tourists about the special way to play the Liwan Town scene.
”This new scene you guys can call it Strange Talk Town, it’s made up of countless strange talks, it covers a very large area and has an extremely high degree of freedom, when you guys go in, I’ll close the door to the town, the way to pass the level is hidden in the middle of the scene.”
”You guys need to find the clues hidden in the middle of the scene under the pursuit of homicidal maniacs and stern ghosts, there are a total of thirty-two clues in this scene, corresponding to thirty-two different endings.” Saying this, Chen Ge held out four fingers, “Since this is your first time visiting this scene, I can provide you with the locations of four clues.”
”The first clue is hidden in a water tank in one of the rooms, and it’s a cell phone that can hear the voices of ghosts.”
”The second clue is hidden in a residential building, you wouldn’t expect anything strange to be hidden where you live on a regular basis.”
”The third clue is hidden in a villa, a music box that makes its own crying sound.”
”The fourth clue is hidden in the owner of the hotel, find him and he will tell you something.”
”Of course, these four clues I mentioned are only a very small part of the scene, you guys can also look for other clues yourselves and find a way to escape.”
Chen Ge only said these four clues because these four clues had already been laid out, and what thirty-two clues were the scene he had conceptualized, which still needed to be perfected step by step before it could be done.
”Thirty-two clues?” One of those four interlopers didn’t quite believe what Chen Ge said, but he merely questioned it and didn’t say anything more.
”Thoroughly open-ended haunted house with a super high degree of freedom, here you can experience the ultimate experience that no other haunted house can bring you.” Chen Ge collected all the disclaimers and led the crowd to the entrance leading to the underground scene, “I’ll give you one last piece of advice, when you go in, head towards the place with light and don’t act alone.”
”Acting like that, we know all of this without you telling us.” The trenchcoat man didn’t know if it was weakness or something else, he muttered something in a low voice.
”Any of your choices will lead to a different result, you guys will know when you go in.” Chen Ge opened the Gate of Sharp Howls, a cold aura gushed out directly from the ground, the temperature dropped instantly, and several people around him shivered.
”Let’s go, I’ll take you guys there.” Chen Ge walked in the forefront, passing through the eerie paths and arriving in front of the Liwan Town Scene.
A large blackened iron door appeared in front of them, on this side of the door you could still hear the screams and running sounds of the other tourists, but on the other side of the door there was a dead silence, as if no life had ever existed.
”The length of the experience is forty minutes, if you want to give up, just stand where you are and yell for help, our staff will pick you up and bring you out.” After sending all the tourists into Liwan Town, Chen Ge locked the iron door.
The sound made by the chains rubbing against the door of the room was very harsh, Chen Ge looked at the ten tourists in front of him and the corner of his mouth rose, “I hope you guys have a good time.”
Twisting his head out of the underground scene, Chen Ge entered the main control room, and he changed the background music of the Liwan Town scene to normal music.
There were too many newcomers, so Chen Ge felt that the scene itself alone was enough.
After getting it done, Chen Ge continued to the door to buy tickets.
After a while, Night Beware finished her visit and walked out of the haunted house.
The girl’s back was already soaked and her forehead was covered in cold sweat.
”How do you feel after your assessment?” Chen Ge took the initiative to walk over.
”Every time I come to visit, the first thing I feel is that it’s real, and that kind of fear strikes straight to the heart, as if these really exist in reality.” Night carefully sighed from the bottom of her heart, “I really don’t know how in the world you designed these scenes, it’s too scary.”
”If it’s not scary, how can it still be called a haunted house?” Chen Ge casually replied back.
”Right, there’s something else I want to tell you.” Night Careful took out his cell phone, “Just now, one of my fans wrote to me privately, saying that the largest physical haunted house in New Sea is coming to visit and learn from you in the near future.”
”New Sea’s haunted house?”
”En, their haunted house over there is almost out of business, so they want to come to you to learn from you.”
Night carefully let Chen Ge look at that haunted house’s information, Chen Ge didn’t care at first, but after sweeping a glance, he suddenly felt a bit familiar: “Let me see that group photo of them again.”
After Chen Ge clicked on the picture, he was surprised to find that there was a person in the picture of the haunted house that Night Careful showed him who looked familiar.
With a feminine face and small eyes, this person was now in his haunted house!
”I’ve seen this guy before, he just entered the haunted house with that pervert.”
”Impossible, right?” Night Beware was a bit surprised.
”That pervert who is on many haunted house blacklists should only be known by people who frequent haunted house forums, there’s something wrong with this.” Chen Ge returned the cell phone to Night Careful: “Excuse me for a moment.”
Without continuing to chat with Night Careful, Chen Ge returned to the main control room to check the surveillance at the entrance of the haunted house.
After comparing them, he was even more certain of his thoughts, “These four guys are obviously a gang, what exactly are they after when they snubbed a pervert into my haunted house to cause trouble? Could it be that Virtual Future Paradise sent them here?”
The situation had changed, Chen Ge pondered for a moment and changed the background music back to Graft and Black Friday, “Since you guys want to come and exchange ideas and learn, then I definitely can’t hide anything, lest people say I’m petty.”
Walking out of the main control room, Chen Ge entered the dressing room to put on some makeup for himself, then took out a set of clothes from the Mastodon changing room, contacted Xiao Gu through the secret staff channel, and changed out of the Skull Shattering Doctor’s uniform that Xiao Gu was wearing.
”I don’t suppose they could have imagined that there would be two different homicidal maniacs, could they?” Chains dragging on the floor, Chen Ge put on a human skin mask and single-handedly carried the hideous Skull Crushing Hammer, rejoining the middle of the Liwan Town scene.
”A friend from afar, isn’t it a pleasure?”
……
The moment the door to the Liwan Town scene closed, the temperature became even lower.
Eerie, silent, and indescribable terror filled the body like a tidal wave.
Not a single person opened their mouths, and the visitors could even hear each other’s heartbeats.
”Not even a signboard? Just straight up leave us here?” Kurosaki himself didn’t even notice that his voice had gotten much smaller.
”Boss Chen’s haunted house is just like this, unique and completely different from other haunted houses on the market.” Wang Yan’s tone wasn’t very good as he walked to the front of the group and spoke, “I’ve cleared the three-star scene, do we have any other tourists here who have cleared the three-star scene? We all cooperate sincerely to have a slight chance of getting through.”
”Have you been brainwashed by this haunted house, and your words are so middle-aged.” One of the people who came in with the feminine man said casually, “When did the haunted house scene horror rating come under his say-so? His haunted house is at most only relatively famous in the local area of Jiujiang.”
”Specializing in rating differences is actually to circularly earn money from you tourists, it’s all left over from our earlier years of playing.” Another person stretched his back and took out his cell phone, seemingly preparing to send a message to someone.
”I advise you better not use your cell phone in the haunted house.” Wang Diem looked at the man very seriously, “All those who use cell phones in this haunted house will end up in a miserable situation and will involve their companions.”
”You’re an inside man hired by the haunted house, aren’t you? Out of your mind?” The man was unimpressed and started communicating with his companion.
Wang Diem wanted to say something else, but was stopped by his girlfriend, who also seemed to think that Wang Diem looked middle-aged and a bit humiliated for doing so.
