Chapter 0749 – So the Legend is True
The short figure’s heart-breaking shouts finally awakened his boss from his joy.
”Red-clothed Knight Ghost?”
As a haunted house owner, he knew a lot of legends about red-clothed stern ghosts, only people with the deepest grudges and who had suffered a lot of torture before their deaths had the chance to turn red.
Whether it was true or not, at least that’s what a lot of movies and weird stories said.
”A red-clad stern ghost appeared in my haunted house? And he’s not the haunted house actor I hired?” That was how things were, but it was very difficult to completely understand them clearly, there were some things that only by being there could one realize what kind of despair it was.
”Xiao Zhao, don’t panic, I’ll immediately call someone over! I don’t care what he is in the end, in my territory, have to follow my rules, is a tiger give lying down, is a dragon also have to give me disk ……”
The phone was directly hung up by the short figure, he didn’t have the time to listen to his boss say such nonsense now.
In the narrow and gloomy passageway, the short figure ran wildly with all his might, and for the first time he realized that the haunted house where he worked was so scary.
The originally familiar environment now became unfamiliar, the props and organs along the road seemed to be covered with a thin veil of blood, all the audio playback devices also seemed to be all malfunctioning, the rustling sound of electric current kept ringing out, which seemed to be mixed with some agonizing wails and whispers.
The background seemed to be playing a recording secretly recorded from the murder scene, and that kind of despair and agonizing emotion was spreading throughout the haunted house, torturing everyone’s ears and stimulating their hearts, putting their spirits on the verge of collapsing at all times.
”What’s going on? What the hell is going on here! Why do I feel as if the entire building has come to life! Why do I feel like this building is going to eat people!”
The short voice desperately shouted, he was now helpless.
”You ask me, who do I ask? I came all the way from Hanjiang to take the high speed train to run to your haunted house to play, thinking to visit a haunted house to relax, but you ended up fixing a real ghost for me!” Chen Ge realized that the short figure was running too slowly, at this rate, even if Xu Yin intended to let go, he would still be caught up, he simply lifted the man up.
”Don’t move around! Where is the exit of your haunted house!”
”The elevator! The elevator is the only entrance and exit! There are a few floors that you can only go to by swiping your employee pass, and that’s the exit!”
The short voice wailed as Chen Ge grabbed his clothes as if he was a human-shaped purse, his body hanging in mid-air.
”Got it!” Chen Ge noted down this information and decisively rushed to the elevator in the middle of the first floor, he desperately pressed the elevator button, but the elevator just stopped at the negative floor and wouldn’t come up!
”What’s the situation! This elevator is malfunctioning?”
”It can’t be! The boss is just worried about accidents in the haunted house, and the elevator is inspected and maintained every day!”
”Then tell me why it’s not coming up!” Chen Ge’s tone was impatient, as if he was on the verge of breaking down, “Are there other employees on the negative floor? Are they occupying the elevator?”
”Nope, I’m the only employee on the negative floor, that scene isn’t usually activated, today it’s mainly because I have to receive ……” The short figure said here and suddenly stopped, the fear in his eyes became even more intense:” Wait a minute, the elevator hasn’t been coming up, that means someone has been pressing the elevator on the negative floor, is there more than one ghost in this basement?”
Shorty was so shocked by his own thoughts that he didn’t need to put on makeup now, his face was white.
”If there’s a ghost controlling the elevator, then this only way of life isn’t safe, after all, since the other party is able to control the elevator, there’s definitely a possibility that they could be in the elevator as well!”
The elevator was a completely enclosed space, Shorty simply couldn’t dare to imagine himself bumping into a ghost in the elevator.
”Then what do you think we should do now?”
”Run! Go and find the others! More people should not be afraid!” The short man was truly panicked, he had witnessed the entire process of Xu Yin’s appearance, and that highly impactful image lingered in his mind, probably in the future, if he dreamed of it, he would wake up straight away in fear.
There is no better way, behind the red clothes gradually approaching, Chen Ge had to carry a backpack and short man rushed to the nearest scene.
A foot kicked open the door of the room, and the sound of playing the piano came to his ears, which was very sad, and it seemed that something very bad had happened to the person playing it.
”Should we find a place to hide first?” Being mentioned by Chen Ge, the short actor was finally able to of stilled his mind and thought.
”Are you sure? In many horror movies, the supporting characters died tragically just because they were stupid enough to find a dead end to hide.” In the aspect of being chased by ghosts and monsters, Chen Ge possessed extremely rich experience in dealing with them.
While the two of them were talking, the sound of blood drops sliding down had already appeared in their ears, and the ticking sound seemed like a hypnotic note.
It was too late to go out now, Chen Ge hid behind the piano at the short man’s signal.
The smell of blood slowly thickened, and Chen Ge and the short actor saw a pair of blood-red shoes through the gap under the piano.
Desperation was spreading, and as if sensing that someone was coming in, the sound of the piano playing gradually became intense.
That lonely, sad melody drifted into Xu Yin’s ears, and the melancholy deep in his eyes became apparent as he twisted his head towards the door of the room.
Written on the door panel were four words – Music Classroom.
The dimly lit classroom was decorated with a variety of musical instruments, the most conspicuous of which was the piano in the center of the room, with a rope hanging above the piano seat, as if someone had stepped on the edge of the piano to hang themselves.
As the melody of the piano music changed, the rope hanging above the piano began to shake on its own, as if the dead were returning to their souls.
As the blood surged, Xu Yin stopped in front of the piano, and he reached out to pluck away the rope that swayed back and forth as he sat down on the chair in front of the piano.
After a moment of silence, he dropped his hands onto the keys of the piano, seemingly recalling the memory that was buried deep in his heart.
The blood-stained fingers moved on the black and white keys, and a very different melody resounded in the classroom.
Like a stream, like moonlight, like a dream that couldn’t be grasped in any way.
Chen Ge, who was hiding behind the piano, looked at Xu Yin, he felt that he still didn’t know Xu Yin well enough, this special red dress, still had a lot of things hidden in her heart.
”When there’s an opportunity in the future, I’ll buy a piano specifically for Xu Yin well, it feels like he can ‘narrate’ the words in his heart through this way.”
When the short actor was narrowly scared half to death, Chen Ge took the time to take out his cell phone and searched for the price of an ordinary piano, after flipping through a few pages he withdrew his phone, “Pianos bought from outside aren’t necessarily good, I see that this piano from Nightmare Academy is quite good.”
”Shhh, don’t talk.” The short actor had a death grip on Chen Ge, he took Chen Ge as a companion, only he guessed that he would never be able to guess what was going on in his teammate’s mind.
Halfway through the piano, blood suddenly seeped out from underneath the black and white keys, and if you looked closely, you could see that this unusually bright “blood” was not as thick as real blood.
Soon the keys began to play a strange melody out of control, and Xu Yin, who was sitting next to the piano, froze for a moment, and then he heard a mournful cry coming from inside the piano.
