Chapter 102 - Reward: Hiring the Pen Spirit (1/2)

Translator: Lonelytree  Editor: Millman97

“Mission Requirement: Find the Pen Spirit’s best friend and fulfil its wish.

“Mission Reward: The Pen Spirit’s affection level will increase tremendously, and you will have a chance to recruit it as the Haunted House’s employee!”

Chen Ge’s eyes studied the last sentence closely. Hiring an actual ghost to be his worker was his dream, and he had not expected that the day would arrive so soon!

When he first received the black phone, he had been paying extra attention to the My Team of Ghouls and Ghosts tab, but after completing so many missions, the tab had remained empty. Both Xiaoxiao and Zhang Ya could not be hired due to specific reasons. Chen Ge had already given up on that thought; after all, human and ghosts were different. However, it was not as good as he had hoped, since the black phone had now issued this mission.

The perks of employing the Pen Spirit were endless; she could predict the future and could scare the visitors without the use of make-up. In Chen Ge’s eyes, she was the perfect employee.

I shall help the Pen Spirit fulfil her wish.

After slipping the black phone back into his pocked, Chen Ge squeezed through the crowd. The few from Qin Guang’s studio were packing up the equipment and laptop; they looked like they were ready to leave. “Who said you people can go?”

Chen Ge walked toward Fei Youliang and pulled out the nametag from his pocket. The dirtied name tag had a woman’s name written on it—Chen Yalin.

“Why would you steal a prop from the Haunted House?” Chen Ge waved the nametag in the air. “Don’t tell me, this old nametag belongs to Fei Youliang?”

The people from Qin Guang’s studio looked at each other. They did not know what had possessed Fei Youliang to go to the classroom to steal this nametag either.

“Xiao Chen, let me handle this.” Uncle Xu was afraid of conflict, so he quickly came out to block Chen Ge.”

“First thing’s first, I need them to delete all the videos from their laptop, or else they are not leaving this place. Every set inside the Haunted House took painstaking effort to build, and I will not allow my effort to go to waste just like that.”

Uncle Xu also understood the damage that the Haunted House would suffer if the video was released to the public. He kept a close eye on the people from Qin Guang’s studio as they deleted the video from the laptop, then he led them to the park management. These people’s behavior had created a negative influence on the park, and they would be punished according to the park rules.

After the few were led away, Chen Ge pushed them out of his mind. In a way, he pitied them from accidentally angering the Pen Spirit.

After they left, Xu Wan walked out from the Haunted House. “Boss, are we still going to continue for the rest of the day?”

“Of course.” Chen Ge returned to the ticket booth, and the originally orderly crowd suddenly swamped him.

“Brother, how come there is no mention of the school scenario on the public forum? It looks f*cking interesting!”

“Is the ticket to visit the school the same price?”

“Can we go in four at a time‽ I haven’t been so excited and scared at the same time! Someone hold me!”

Chen Ge did not expect that the crowd’s reaction to the new scenario would be so positive after witnessing what had happened to Fei Youliang and Zhu Jianing. He glanced at the crowd and realized that most of them were students.

“I’m sorry, but due to some accidents, the scenario is temporarily closed for a two-day maintenance period.” Fei Youliang and Zhu Jianing were the beta testers. From their experience, Chen Ge realized that even without his intervention, the scenario was independent enough to scare the visitors on its own, but there were still too many uncertainties and, thus, a certain risk.
