Chapter 0752 – 514 Paradise Exclusive Ward
Chen Ge was the last person to jump down from the second floor, and when he stood on the window sill, he was also surprised by the surging crowd downstairs.
”Playing around seems a bit big this time.”
In order to not make himself seem special, Chen Ge hesitated for a moment before also jumping down on the edge of the window.
”Someone jumped!”
Waves of voices rang out on Xinhai Central Avenue, and more and more people crowded this way.
A full ten minutes passed before order was restored to the scene when the police arrived.
”Don’t stay where you are, don’t block the passageway, let the ambulance come in!”
Several police officers dispersed the onlookers, and it didn’t take them long to find the people who had just “jumped off the building”.
”Something ran out from under the building! Comrade police! I know it’s hard to understand, but this is what happened!” Xiao Zhao kept jumping up and down, trying to attract the police’s attention: “There are still tourists inside! Quick! Save them!”
Several of the haunted house actors were agitated and had yet to fully calm down, and after the police briefly inquired about the situation, each of them looked odd.
At first they thought that there was a vicious murder case, then they thought that there might have been a fire in the haunted house and they were forced to jump off the building, but after listening to the employees’ descriptions, the police felt that the group was very much like they were joking with themselves.
”Something under the building? Do you guys know what the consequences of playing tricks on the police are?” The leading police captain had a dark face, and after understanding the situation, he began to suspect that this was Nightmare Academy’s malicious hype, and that this was all a farce that they were directing themselves in order to gain heat and attention.
”We didn’t tease you! It’s true! That thing under the building appeared out of nowhere! He was wearing a red suit!” Several of the surviving haunted house actors described it to the police in graphic detail.
Frightened eyes, hurried tones, exaggerated body movements, the haunted house actors acted as if they were too deep into the movie and couldn’t get out.
”Alright, alright, where is the person in charge of you? Let him come out, I have something to ask him.” That police captain felt like he just couldn’t communicate with the haunted house actors.
”The person in charge?” Several haunted house actors looked at each other, they suddenly remembered that their boss was still in the haunted house!
”Crap! The boss is still inside!”
……
Waving the golf club in his hand, Nightmare Academy boss Shangguan Qinghong frowned slightly, “It’s a bit light, forget it, I can’t find a smoother weapon in a short period of time, so that’s it.”
He looked at the computer screen and checked the several videos that he had just intercepted from the surveillance, the protagonists of these videos were all Chen Ge, and all of the ones that he had intercepted were the clips of Chen Ge falling away in his own haunted house.
”With such a wimpy boss, how can the Hanyue House of Horrors be compared to my Nightmare Academy in the future, their bosses are scared shitless when they come to my place.” Although a lot of unexpected things happened today, but the boss of Shangguan was still very happy, he felt that he had guarded his haunted house’s signboard, and dealt a severe blow to the arrogance of his rivals.
”So what if the real ghost downstairs ran out? As long as a ghost appears in my haunted house, that’s considered part of my haunted house’s strength.” Righteousness is not in the hands of wealth, mercy is not in the hands of soldiers, Shangguan Light Hong felt that he had done the right thing.
”I already have the evidence that Chen Ge was scared and collapsed, now I just need to get out safely.” When all the videos intercepted from the surveillance were downloaded, Shangguan Light Hong put away his cell phone.
He put on his helmet and knee pads and held his golf club with one hand.
”It’s time to go out, that thing downstairs is weird and scary, but I have a large number of employees under me, so if we all get together, even if it’s dirty, it won’t be able to make waves.”
Taking a deep breath, Shangguan Light Hong opened the door to the principal’s office, “Everyone don’t panic! Listen to my command!”
The door panel was open, but there were no employees outside as Shangguan Qinghong had imagined, there was no one in the dark corridor, only the cold wind from the air conditioner was blowing haphazardly.
”Where is everyone?”
Standing alone on the long corridor where he couldn’t see his fingers, Shangguan Qinghong couldn’t help but panic, he took out his walkie-talkie and shouted loudly, “Where are you guys? Xiao Zhao? Old Li? Xiaoxu?”
After changing several channels in a row, no one answered, and he was the only one echoing on the entire promenade.
”What’s going on?”
No one spoke on the intercom, no one answered on the cell phone, as if he was the only one left in the world.
”Where did all these guys go?”
Shangguan Qinghong held a golf club, after a short panic, he immediately calmed down, “I notified them the first time of the accident, the actors on the same floor as me gathered directly in front of my office, there are two possibilities for all of them to have disappeared now.”
”First, the dirty things pressed under the building are chasing them, they attracted the attention of the dirty things and helped me draw away the ghosts and monsters, now is a good opportunity for me to leave.”
”Secondly, they have been killed, if this is the case, then it’s useless for me to worry and be afraid, what’s coming will always come, blind panic will only cause myself to lose my bearings.”
Shangguan Light Hong was able to run the Nightmare Academy into the largest haunted house in Xinhai, showing that he himself was very capable, only perhaps because his career was smooth sailing, making his personality slightly problematic.
”My purpose has been accomplished, now as long as I can guarantee my own safety.” Shangguan Qinghong decided to leave directly, as for the safety of his employees, that would only be considered after he first guaranteed his own safety.
Carefully coming to the elevator door, a short stretch of road, Shangguan Qinghong walked for two minutes.
The normally familiar scene was now unexpectedly filled with a special sense of terror.
Wiping away the cold sweat on his forehead, Shangguan Light Hong pressed the elevator button, but the elevator seemed to be malfunctioning and kept stopping at the negative floor.
”What’s going on?” It took several consecutive presses before the numbers on the elevator’s external display changed and began to slowly rise.
”So slow!” Dry standing at the elevator door, Shangguan Light Hong was getting more and more scared, he looked at the dark corridor and always felt that something would suddenly appear in the darkness, fear was like a poisonous weed taking root in his heart.
When the elevator rose to the second floor, Shangguan Qinghong suddenly heard footsteps coming from the hallway, the background music also changed at this moment, he was able to clearly hear the voice of a strange man.
”That thing is coming over.”
The footsteps in the hallway were getting closer and closer, Shangguan Qinghong stared at the numbers on the outer screen of the elevator, his hands gripping the golf clubs tightly.
”Hurry!”
When the footsteps appeared on the fourth floor, the elevator also finally rose to the fourth floor.
The elevator doors painted with various paints opened towards both sides, Shangguan Light Hong squeezed his way inside, and just as he stepped in with his front foot, his body froze.
There was actually a person inside the elevator!
That person was standing in the corner of the elevator, his face was pale, he was also startled when he saw the haunted house owner rushing in with a golf club.
”Who are you?”
The two men spoke in unison, as if they had discussed it.
After staring at each other for about three seconds, the haunted house boss was the first to speak, “You’re a tourist?”
His entire focus was on Chen Ge today, and he didn’t care that much about the other tourists.
The pale middle-aged man nodded and looked at Shangguan Qinghong warily, “And you?”
”I’m the owner of the haunted house, now there’s a small accident here, don’t ask so many questions, I’ll send you out first.” In front of the tourists, Shangguan Light Hong acted calmly.
After hearing Shangguan Qinghong say his haunted house boss, the other guy in the elevator sighed in relief, “Good.”
”Trees attract the wind, today there will be an accident, mainly because of peers running over to make trouble, usually our haunted house is not like this.” Shangguan Light Hong forced a smile as he put the blame on Chen Ge, “What is your friend’s name?”
”My surname is Zhou, you can just call me Old Zhou.”
The footsteps on the corridor quickly approached and had appeared at the corner of the fourth floor, Shangguan Light Hong hurriedly pressed the elevator door switch.
The bloodstained elevator door slowly closed, and the eerie footsteps were getting closer and closer!
The haunted house owner couldn’t do anything in the elevator at this time, his heart hung in the air and his hands slowly clenched.
”Quickly close it! Hurry up and close it!”
Perhaps the heavens heard the Nightmare Academy boss’s prayers, the footsteps were still a few meters away when the elevator doors were about to close.
”Steady.” He let out a long sigh of relief, but the next thing that made him think of anything came next.
A hand reached out from the elevator and got stuck in the middle of the elevator door that was just about to close!
Shangguan Qinghong swore that he was absolutely not mistaken, that pale hand was sticking out from the inside of the elevator!
The elevator door touched the hand and opened again to both sides.
Shangguan Qinghong looked at Lao Zhou who was standing in the doorway at an unknown time, and almost passed his back.
His lips were bloodless, and before he could say anything, a strong smell of blood seemed like a giant wave slapping hard into the elevator room!
When he raised his head again, Shangguan Qinghong saw Old Zhou retreating to the side, and an unfamiliar figure standing in the elevator doorway.
Red clothes like blood, grievances wrapped around his body, a black curse threading through the flesh and blood.
”Don’t come over!” The haunted house owner curled up in the corner of the elevator, watching the blood shadow enter the elevator before seeing Old Zhou press the button to close the door.
The elevator door slowly closed, and this time there was no one left to stop it.
……
”Your boss is still inside the haunted house?” The leading captain looked at the wailing haunted house actors and wondered why they were so agitated.
”Comrade police officer! Save our boss! He’s still on the fourth floor! There are other tourists in the haunted house!”
Hearing that the haunted house actors didn’t look like they were joking, the police nodded in agreement and gathered the team to the main entrance of the haunted house.
”The only exit to this haunted house of ours is the elevator, but right now the elevator is occupied by the filth downstairs! It keeps stopping on the negative floor ……” Zhao said as he jumped ahead, leading the way and pointing to the display on the outside of the elevator.
But when he saw the number on the display, he froze.
The number on the display was two, which meant that the elevator was passing the second floor at that moment.
”The elevator moved? It must be the dirty thing downstairs that took the elevator upstairs!” Xiao Zhao screamed.
The number on the display was still changing at this time, and it soon became one again.
After roughly a few seconds, the elevator doors slowly opened in front of the police and the haunted house actors.
The Nightmare Academy boss, who was holding a golf club, was lying horizontally on the ground, his body constantly twitching, and the person had completely lost consciousness.
”Boss!”
The employees swarmed and rushed, “Call the emergency services!”
The person was stunned, if this was a haunted house directing itself, then they had played too big a game.
The lead cop realized something was wrong and called a few people to take the elevator upstairs with him.
They repeatedly searched the entire building, and none of the dirty things the haunted house actors said they had encountered were there; instead, they saw more unconscious haunted house actors on the ground, as well as two dumbfounded couple tourists.
When they first saw the police come in, the couple tourists thought the haunted house actors were pretending to be police, and frantically conversed in an attempt to trigger the haunted house plot.
About thirty minutes later, the entrance to the haunted house was cleared out, the unconscious haunted house actors and the haunted house owner were sent away by ambulance, the remaining tourists and actors who were still conscious stayed behind to be questioned by the police, and finally everyone was taken to the nearest police station.
Sitting in the police car, Chen Ge skillfully memorized the seatbelt for himself, he also didn’t expect that on his first visit to Xinhai, he would have the opportunity to ride in the police car of Xinhai City.
”Comrade police officer, please believe me, I’m really innocent, my hometown is in Hanjiang, I came all the way here to visit the haunted house, in fact, I’m also a victim ……”
……
”Make way! Emergency! Make way!” A medical trolley crossed the corridor, sending unconscious patients into the emergency room.
”There’s no room! The patients in the back will be sent to other wards first! Xiao Zhang, call Dr. Liu and Dr. Xu, who are resting, to come over immediately! The employees of a haunted house on Xinhai Central Avenue have fainted in a massive coma and fainted! It’s suspected to be food poisoning! It’s likely that they’ve ingested some kind of hallucinogen!”
”No abnormalities were found in the physical examination! They seem to have received some kind of stimulus, fainting is the body’s own protective mechanism.”
”When will they wake up?” The police officer leading the team had a bit of a headache, Xinhai’s law and order was very good, and the precinct he was in charge of had never seen anything like this before.
”It’s not clear! As short as an hour or two, as long as a few days, this we can’t say.” The doctor in charge couldn’t say for sure either, “If you guys are in a hurry, I suggest that you can transfer them to the Hanjiang Central Hospital, I’ve heard that the doctors there are very good at treating fainting, and that they have a separate ward there for specializing in receiving this type of patients!”
”There’s a hospital that specializes in treating syncope?” The lead policeman was a bit hesitant, the current situation was no longer something he could make a decision on.
”Forget about the other patients, but that patient called Shangguan Light Hong is in a very serious condition, he has already fallen into a deep coma and has no response to external stimuli. I suggest that he be sent over to Hanjiang to receive the relevant treatment immediately.”
”Alright, I’ll report this to my superiors.” The lead policeman nodded, “That hospital in Hanjiang is called Hanjiang Central Hospital, right?”
”Yes, Hanyue Central Hospital, Paradise Exclusive Ward 514! I don’t know why they named the sickroom like that, but I do know that their ability to treat fainting is number one in the industry.” The doctor said seriously.
