When the woman said that, Chen Ge could clearly see the hairs on the back of the man’s neck stand upright. Chen Ge had filled in several words, mimicking the original handwriting, as a prank, but he did not think that the actors’ reaction would be so big.
With his eyes narrowed, Chen Ge stood between the recorder and the actors. He had a feeling that this Haunted House was more than it appeared—perhaps it was really haunted.
Xing Hai was a large city. Tian Teng Medical School had spent a lot of resources to set up their Haunted House there, but they had left in a hurry to move to Jiujiang City, which was far from Xing Hai, after being in operation for only a few weeks.
If they knew Xu Zhenzhen might draw her spirit back, why did they insist on using her name inside the Haunted House? Chen Ge could not understand the proprietor’s thought. Did he really think that moving the location would be able to shake her spirit off? Or does this Xu Zhenzhen have a special meaning for the proprietor?
The light in the Haunted House was dim, so the actor had to bring the note close to his face before he could get a good look. “The handwriting is still wet.”
He turned to look at Chen Ge but quickly looked back. He mumbled to himself, “We’ve only had one visitor so far. Let’s say he brought a pen with him and wrote this, how does that explain the voice in the recorder? This scene is newly added, and no one other than the design team knows about the tape recorder. I don’t think someone would be weird enough to visit a Haunted House with an audio tape on him!”
Just as the actor was thinking, the scream appeared once more in the recorder. The pain was different from the one recorded by the actor. Even though it was broadcasted through speakers, it was enough to make the listeners shiver from terror. It sounded like the murder was happening right beside them.
“Brother Lin…” The female actor moved toward the door. “How come the recording sounds so real?”
“I have no clue.” The man turned back to look, and he found Chen Ge still standing beside the recorder. He hesitated for a while before ignoring Chen Ge and rushing to the woman’s side. He whispered, “Other than this note, did you find anything else in the room that you’re responsible for?”
“No.”
“What about the others?”
“They should be coming soon.” The woman’s eyes darted about like she was on the verge of a breakdown. “Did that thing return? We’ve just opened for business, and didn’t the boss say that he has already taken care of it?”
“What are you guys talking about? What happened here?” Chen Ge picked up the recorder. He planned to persuade the actors to let him bring the recorder out of the Haunted House with him. Looking at Chen Ge and the recorder he was carrying, the two actors froze.
“Put that thing down!” the female actor demanded shrilly. “We did not record the voice that is coming out of it now!”
Of course, Chen Ge knew that, but he could not admit that he knew. “The recorder is inside your Haunted House. If you didn’t record this tape, who did? Are you telling me that a ghost did?”
The man was stunned speechless. Afterwards, it was the woman who stepped forth in spite of the man’s intervention and explained, “When we were in Xing Hai, one of the visitors was so scared that she left in tears. She told us that one of our actors was really realistic in her acting, but in reality, she was not supposed to be scared at the place that she was! We asked her for a description of the actor and realized her description matched Xu Zhenzhen perfectly!”
