Chapter 0737: Three?
”Why is this person wearing another school’s uniform?” Cui Ming froze for a moment, “Mureyang Middle School? Haven’t heard of it at all, huh? Did other visitors sneak in? But how come I didn’t hear a sound in the nightmare?”
As Choi Name stayed in place, footsteps once again sounded in the darkened classroom as the blurry figure slowly approached.
The temperature seemed to have gotten a little cooler, the cold wind from the air conditioner blew across his neck and drilled into his collar, and Cui Ming felt his back go cold.
”Brother Gou?”
No one responded to Cui Ming, he took a deep breath, that indescribable feeling of oppression grew stronger and stronger, his body instinctively wanted to escape.
”What’s going on?” This was in a haunted house, he was an actor in a haunted house, now why did he have the illusion that he was a tourist.
His eyes widened, the more he looked, the more wrong he felt, the person following him was definitely not Xiao Gou, she was wearing another school’s uniform!
The unknown is the most terrifying thing, Cui Ming had now encountered such a situation, he knew that someone was following him, but he didn’t know who that person actually was.
This familiar scene became terrifying just because of this strange person behind him.
The darkness was like a tidal wave drowning Cui Ming, his chest heaved and his breathing became rapid, it was as if he was the only one left in the entire room, there were no coworkers or tourists around him, there was only the endless darkness.
A normal person used to the colorful world, suddenly plunged into the darkness will appear brief panic, as if he was stripped out of the original world.
After scaring the tourists so many times in this scene, Cui Ming finally experienced that feeling of being frightened this time.
The cell phone in his palm vibrated again, and Cui Ming knew that someone had sent him a message.
Strongly suppressing the fear in his heart, Cui Ming blocked the light with his body and looked at the message on the screen – put on the headphones!
It was still from Xiao Gou, very short, only four words.
”If there’s something wrong, just say it! Making me even more flustered!” Cui Ming muttered in his heart, he held his cell phone in one hand, the other hand reached into his pocket to fumble for the headphones, just as he had just gotten the headphones and was about to put them on his ears, a cool breeze suddenly came from his neck.
He turned around violently, and the afterglow of the phone screen shone behind him.
Without looking down, Cui Ming looked behind himself flatly, he didn’t see a living person approaching, he just saw a pair of worn out women’s shoes, and it was a shoelace that had just brushed against his neck.
”Why are these shoes floating behind me?” Following the shoes, Cui Ming slowly raised his head, and he saw a dark figure almost on the verge of standing on his shoulder!
As he raised his head to look at the other person, that person was also looking at him!
His heart seemed to have missed a beat, his body seemed to be petrified as he held onto the wall, his brain was trying to comfort himself with the last of his sanity, but after half a day of flying through his thoughts, his mind was blank.
Abandoned classroom, psychic game, darkness, a person standing on his shoulder, these few key words randomly selected one or two combinations, will be able to scare people out of the problem, not to mention that Cui Ming now set all the “elements”.
Half-raised neck has been frozen, Cui Ming shouted, may be too afraid of the reason, he spit out the words very unclear, the surrounding people did not even hear what he said clearly, saw him “dab” a rushed toward the front.
What script, what actors, what haunted house, were Cui Ming left behind, his mind now only one idea – run! Rush out!
No purpose, no direction, as long as he could leave this classroom, he could go anywhere.
”Cui Ming!” Xiao Gou shouted loudly, trying to calm Cui Ming down, and the response was the sound of tables, chairs and benches being knocked over.
Without any lights in the classroom, Cui Ming couldn’t see the way and dashed across the room, finally rushing out through the front door of the classroom.
Xiao Gou knew that the thing following Cui Ming was a ghost, and at that moment, seeing Cui Ming’s reaction, he immediately realized that that thing was very scary.
”Where are you going! Cui Ming!” Xiao Gou shouted loudly, but Cui Ming didn’t even turn his head back and directly ran out of sight.
”What’s wrong with him? Why is he suddenly running out? Something won’t have happened?” Chen Ge had a hint of concern in his eyes and inquired three times in a row, and several other people in the room could hear the worry about Cui Ming in his tone.
”I don’t know, this game of ours probably can’t continue, I’m going to get Cui Ming back.” Xiao Gou himself was starting to get scared, it was pitch black around him, he didn’t know if that ghost had left with Cui Ming.
”No!”
These two words came from the headphones and the last row of the classroom at the same time as Chen Ge and the owner of the Nightmare Academy in the monitoring room spoke together.
”What are you guys up to? Follow the script properly for me! Don’t you guys just come up here and screw it up for me, and in turn let that guy see the joke!”
Xiao Gou’s headset heard his own boss’s voice, and before he had a chance to reply to his own boss’s words, he heard Chen Ge from the last row of the classroom say again, “You can’t quit in the middle of a psychic game, or else the ghosts will haunt you for the rest of your life! Whether this is a plot set up by the haunted house or it’s really haunted, if you guys don’t want to be knocked on the door by a stern ghost in the middle of the night, you’d better keep playing this game!”
Hearing his boss and Chen Ge’s voices at the same time, Xiao Gou felt like he was about to be driven crazy, what kind of people had he met.
What kind of tourist would take the initiative to ask to finish the psychic game in a haunted house, never encountered such a situation before.
Chen Ge was the tourist, the headset side was the boss, both of them insisted on playing the game, Gou could only play on with his head.
”Okay, then …… let s continue.” He was gritting his teeth and holding on, and now he could only bet that the ghost followed Cui Ming away.
”There’s one less person and an empty corner, so let’s change the rules of the game.” Chen Ge should be the first person to run into someone else’s haunted house and set the rules of the game, and he didn’t resent such a thing.
”The basic rules of the game will remain the same, we’ll still walk clockwise, if we walk to a corner where there’s no one, we’ll cough and then leave that corner empty, just keep walking forward.”
”Just follow what you said.” Xiao Gou’s heart was long gone from the game, and he agreed perfunctorily.
”Then let’s still start with me.” Chen Ge counted down to three, then took out the comic book from his backpack and touched the wall towards the corner in front of him.
He didn’t deliberately hide his footsteps, and a person could be vaguely seen walking in the darkness.
Xiao Gou had been staring at Chen Ge, and the corner Chen Ge was now going to was very close to where Cui Ming’s accident had occurred.
His nerves were taut and he was highly focused on paying attention.
Soon Chen Ge walked to the next corner, he didn’t cough and stayed where he was.
”There’s no coughing sound! There’s someone else in that corner!” Xiao Gou’s body was trembling gently, he was very uneasy.
Chen Ge stayed in that corner, but the sound of footsteps didn’t stop, there was a silhouette swaying from the last row of the classroom towards Li Po.
Of all the people present, only Li Po, the little fat man, was still in the dark as he honestly played the game.
With a gentle tap on his shoulder, Li Po touched the wall and walked towards Xiao Gou.
The haunted house actors discussed with each other with code words, Li Po walked behind Xiao Gou, tapped his left shoulder, then tapped his right shoulder, “Brother Gou, what’s the matter with Cui Ming?”
Li Po inquired in a low voice, Xiao Gou was worried about scaring Li Po and didn’t tell the truth: “Don’t care about him, when the situation is not right, you should hurry and leave this classroom.”
After saying these words, Xiao Gou began to walk towards the next corner.
I don’t know if it was because of the psychological suggestion, Xiao Gou felt that the surrounding had become even dimmer, and it was as if there was a black hole in front of him, which would suck in all the people who approached.
Holding onto the wall, Xiao Gou slowly moved to the corner where Chen Ge had just stayed, and there was a vague shadow of a figure in front of him.
He walked closer and stretched out his hand, but just as his hand was about to fall onto the figure’s shoulder, Xiao Gou realized something.
This round of the game had started with Chen Ge, so it was correct to say that there should be no one in the corner where Chen Ge had originally stayed!
Chen Ge had moved to the next corner, so who was the person standing in this corner?
Fear struck from all sides, Xiao Gou’s arm hovered in mid-air as he suddenly thought of something even more terrifying.
The game had already gone on for one round, but not a single person had coughed.
In other words, there was more than one ghost in this classroom!
The raised hand just couldn’t fall, and all of Xiao Gou’s courage had been exhausted.
After hesitating for a while, he finally made a decision and gently touched the shoulder of the man in the corner, then immediately took a few steps back.
Until the man staggered away, Xiao Gou was relieved, he didn’t stay in the corner, but gently opened the back door in the back row of the classroom that only the haunted house employees knew about, and then hid inside.
”Definitely can’t stay here!”
Gou took out his cell phone and wanted to send a text message to Li Po to notify him, but his own boss’s voice came from his headphones, “Gou Huo, what do you want? That tourist is still inside, I told you to scare him, now what do you mean by running out on your own?”
”Boss, listen to me, today is really a bit different!” Xiao Gou was explaining to his boss, the game was still going on in the classroom.
Footsteps kept coming out of the classroom, and soon Li Po felt another tap on his shoulder.
This honest little fatty, without thinking much, started walking towards the front.
But when he walked to the corner where Xiao Gou was, he realized that the corner was empty.
”Brother Gou?” Standing alone in the corner, Li Po paused for a few seconds, then according to the rules of the game set by Chen Ge, he coughed gently and continued toward the next corner again.
In the dark classroom, Li Po was also a bit panicked as he slowly approached the corner where Chen Ge was, but after he came to his heels, he realized that this corner was also empty!
”Where are the people? Where are the tourists?”
Completely unable to understand what was going on, Li Po had to give another dry cough and started walking towards the next corner.
The classroom was so quiet that he could only hear his own heartbeat and footsteps alone.
When he got to the third corner, Lipo finally realized something was wrong because there was no one in this corner either.
”Where did they all go?”
Li Po didn’t dare to move around, he tried to contact Xiao Gou, the other party didn’t send him a message back, he wanted to give up, but what Chen Ge said just now would always come to his mind.
If you give up halfway through the psychic game, you will be knocked on the door in the middle of the night by a severe ghost.
At the thought of this, Li Po’s hairs stood up in sweat and he had no choice but to continue walking forward.
”How come it feels like I’m the only one left in the entire classroom?”
There at the back door, Xiao Gou had just finished explaining to his boss and was about to reply to Li Po’s text message when he saw Li Po walking towards him through the window on the back door.
”This game can’t be played any longer by saying anything, when Li Po comes over, I’ll shout him away first. That tourist is up to his own destiny, it just so happens that the boss wants to deal with him.” Xiao Gou gripped the door handle and saw Li Po coming towards him through the window.
He opened the back door a crack and opened his mouth to shout out Li Po’s name when a cool air rushed directly to the top of his head!
Xiao Gou clearly saw that right behind Li Po, three figures followed shakily!
They were following closely behind Li Po, their pace was consistent with Li Po, and Li Po who was walking in front of him was completely unaware of it!
”Three?!”
Sitting on his butt on the ground, Xiao Gou’s legs stomped on the ground, frantically moving backward, his mouth shouting loudly, “Li Po! Run!”
The sudden sound startled Li Po, he saw the back door of the classroom open and Xiao Gou desperately pointing behind him, he subconsciously twisted his head to look behind him.
Three figures were close to him, and three different faces were reflected in his eyes.
”Don’t the three of us look unfamiliar to you?”
Responding to Chen Ge was an ear-piercing scream, and it was the first time he had heard such a high-pitched voice from a boy’s mouth.
Watching the chubby body hit the back door and rush out like a cannonball, Chen Ge didn’t chase after it.
He retrieved the Pen Fairy and Old Zhou, picked up the diary that had fallen on the ground, and flipped to the third page.
At the end of the first diary, there was this paragraph written, Four people were playing a four-cornered game in an abandoned classroom, and three people deliberately tricked and bullied one of them, causing him to have an accident.
Later the three adults who had teased the others all disappeared, and on the seventh day of the teased person’s head, his family found three straw dolls under his bed, and on the back of the dolls were written respectively- Prompting Life, Hooking Souls, and Departing from the Spirit.
”This first diary is describing the first horror scene, which is the abandoned classroom four corners game, according to this, the second scene should correspond to the second diary.”
Sitting in the eerie haunted house scene, Chen Ge was curious and started flipping through the second diary – there was a beauty-loving woman called Butterfly, who fell in love with a man, and in order to prevent her confession from being rejected, she decided to ask the Pen Fairy.
”Pen Fairy?” Chen Ge didn’t continue reading when he saw this, his expression was odd: “Same theme, I hope they can bring me a different feeling here.”
Without bothering to look at the other diaries, Chen Ge directly walked out from the back door of the classroom.
”Should we go to the Penumbra scene first, or should we go to the doctor’s place to get some props over first?”
He looked at the dark corridor and gently shook his head, “Forget it, walk all the way there and make sure to clear this haunted house today.”
