“Sure.” Han Qiuming patted the proprietor’s hand, telling him not to worry.

“Follow me.” Chen Ge did not give them the chance to reject. The proprietor stood where he was. “Qiuming, you’ve acted too rashly.”

“We’re all in the same business. You should be able to tell whether he was lying or not.” Han Qiuming shrugged. “If you are that afraid, I’ll walk at the front.”

“You weren’t there that day; you don’t know about the situation.” The proprietor felt a headache coming. “This Boss Chen is not a normal individual. He entered the Haunted House alone and managed to maintain his heartrate below 100.”

“That’s not all,” Song An added. “That day, Zhenzhen’s spirit seemed to appear again. All of us actors ran out of the Haunted House for our lives, but he remained inside the Haunted House alone.”

“What is so scary about that? You people are just too cowardly.” Han Qiuming pushed the glasses up his nose. “If it was me, I would have stayed inside the Haunted House as well.”

“I’m not done.” Song An shared a look with his boss. He continued when he got the latter’s permission. “After Boss Chen left, we inspected the Haunted House closely. Guess what we found.”

“Stop talking in riddles.”

“The female body that hung at the entrance was decimated. The head was rolled to the side, and its eyes looking in a fixed direction. Both of its legs were torn apart and were deposited far away from the body.” Just retelling it made Song An scared. “Would a normal visitor do something this crazy? I almost called the police then.”

The proprietor also walked over. “After Boss Chen, I’ve learned something. Sometimes, people are scarier than ghosts.”

“That’s right.” Song An nodded in agreement. “We should leave as soon as possible when the visitation is over. Our two Haunted Houses should stay as apart as possible in the future.”

“Is that necessary? You’re all acting like such babies. We’re already here, and it’s too late to be afraid now.” Ye Xiaoxin swiped on her phone and turned back when she realized that the people from Tian Teng Medical School had not moved. “You’re both in the same business, so how come the difference is so big?”

The young woman was a straight-shooter, and she had a unique tone. It sounded quite raspy and sexy. She walked toward the Haunted House and updated her status online. ‘Trying out a new local Haunted House today.’

“See, we’re looked down upon now.” Han Qiuming’s gaze swept the pair of long legs and rushed after Ye Xiaoxin without looking back.

“He’s acting too rashly.” The proprietor was worried. “Song An, stick close to him when we’re in there. Qiuming is talented, but pride might be his biggest downfall.”

“Okay, I’ll try my best.” Song An sighed as they walked into the Haunted House. The curtain was like a wall separating the two worlds. There was barely any light inside the Haunted House, and it was much cooler inside.
