Chapter 187 - Tian Teng Medical School (2/2)
“Hey!”
Chen Ge’s eyes flew open, and he woke up from the nightmare, his forehead soaked with cold sweat. It was 3:40 am, and this coincided with the time he exited the ‘door’.
Why would I have a dream like that? Did anything happen to Men Nan’s main persona inside the door? Chen Ge lost all interest in sleep. He took his phone, toolbox, and backpack and headed for the Third Sick Hall.
Chen Ge returned to this place at 5 am. The sun was coming up, but the buildings still looked quite creepy. Chen Ge jumped over the fence into the mental hospital. The police had broken down the locks to the Third Sick Hall, and Chen Ge headed for Room 3 immediately.
He pushed the door open, and everything looked the same as when he left it. His investigation came up with nothing. Chen Ge walked deeper into the sick hall as he contemplated. He retrieved the hammer and cleaver that he had hidden the night before and rushed to the director’s office. Using the tools from his toolbox, he pried the four blood red nails from the corners of the dresser.
They look to be normal iron nails. Chen Ge tore a piece off from the curtain, used it to wrap the nails, and placed it inside his backpack.
The day was starting. Knowing that he still had plenty of things to do, he exited the mental hospital, walked quite a distance, and eventually found a taxi. He returned to New Century Park.
After placing down his backpack, Chen Ge put up a sign for temporary closure and carried a bunch of stuff before hurrying to the city center.
“Sheng Yuan International Plaza’s third floor.” Chen Ge held the flyer in his hand as he waited for the elevator. There was a group of young men and women near him, and they were chit-chatting among themselves. They were very excited.
“I’m shocked that Tian Teng Medical School decided to come to Jiujiang! When they were stationed at Xing Hai last year, I was so ready to hop on a train to go visit them!”
“Sounds like you’re exaggerating again. Su Su, I hear we also have a good Haunted House, and it’s quite famous online.”
“Don’t buy into online rumors. The Haunted Houses we have only rely on cheap tricks; they’re no competition for Tian Teng Medical School. You’re not an aficionado like myself, so you wouldn’t understand it.”
The Su Su who spoke was a rather cute girl. She was about 1.6 meters tall, and her front was as flat as her back. Standing beside Su Su was a tall young man. He added shyly, “But aren’t all Haunted Houses the same?”
“Most Haunted Houses are in it for the money, but Tian Teng Medical School is different; they’re aiming for a real haunting experience. The two are leagues apart.” The girl seemed to be a real Haunted House fan. “You won’t understand it even if I explain it to you. Later, you just stick behind me.”
The girl was quite interesting, and she had Chen Ge’s interest. The elevator door opened, and all of them went up to the third floor. The elevator opened to reveal a hall that was filled with waiting visitors.
“Tian Teng Medical School is so famous?” Chen Ge had risked his life and energy doing all sort of promotion online, and he had barely gotten the popularity of his Haunted House up. In comparison, Tian Teng Medical School managed to attract so many visitors just from word of mouth alone. That was quite impressive.
“They are, of course, famous! They’re the biggest moving Haunted House currently available on the market! They hired a professional Haunted House designer from Japan who had over ten years of experience. The make-up team and every set piece are custom-made.” The girl called Su Su overheard Chen Ge and patiently explained to him, “Uncle, even though the price of admission is rather expensive, it is definitely worth your money! The scares utilize sound, light, electricity, and smell. It’s the best Japanese-style Haunted House in the nation.”
“Uncle?” Chen Ge’s lips twitched slightly. The things he had seen yesterday were scary enough. After managing his expression, Chen Ge walked past the girl, mumbling, “I’ve not experienced a Japanese-style Haunted House before, but I wonder, compared to the Third Sick Hall, which is scarier?”
