My House of Horrors Chapter 1142: Am I scary, or is the curse scary?
Chen Ge asked Lao Wu to reveal his identity to the landlord, and the two entered the rental house to check it out.
Chiren walked in a hurry, the food on the table was not finished, all kinds of clothes were thrown on the sofa, the drawers were not closed, and the house was in a mess, just like a thief.
"Did Chi Ren tell you where he's going?"
"No, but he's been on the phone with people recently, it seems that he wants others to take him in for a while, and he's quarreled with the people on the phone a few times." The landlord pointed to the wall: "Old house, The sound insulation is relatively poor, although Chiren usually looks very honest, but he is very scary when he gets angry.”
"Then have you heard more important names of people and places?" Chen Ge looked serious.
"They seem to have mentioned a deli called Shilixiang, and the owner also seems to be surnamed." The landlord can provide limited information, and Chen Ge has quietly released Men Nan during the conversation.
While they were chatting, Men Nan probably searched the entire room, but found nothing.
Leaving the apartment building, Old Wu drove Chen Ge to Shilixiang Deli again.
This store is located on the most prosperous Century Avenue in Xinhai. Coincidentally, Shangguan Qinghong's haunted house is also near Century Avenue. The two stores belong to the same business district.
"Century Avenue business district is brightly lit 24 hours a day and is very popular. It is indeed a good choice to hide here." In popular places, Specter is very inconvenient to operate, and even red clothes will be affected.
"Angkor, don't worry about me after you send me to the deli. I'm really bothering you today. When you're free, I'll definitely invite you to dinner."
"Can you do it alone? This is Xinhai. You are not familiar with your life, but you dare not do anything dangerous by yourself." Old Wu gave Chen Ge his mobile phone number: "Give it to me if you are in trouble. Call and I'll try my best to help you find a way."
"Thank you."
Old Wu came with Teacher Wang. He still has a mission and cannot act with Chen Ge for a long time, but he can send Chen Ge to Xinhai, which has already made Chen Ge very grateful.
Carrying two large bags, Chen Ge directly found Shilixiang Deli.
The store is not big, but there are a lot of customers, and there is a long queue at the door.
"Business is booming."
It took a full fifteen minutes for Chen Ge to line up. He looked at the various cooked foods in the window and smelled the fragrant aroma: "Boss, why does your cooked food feel better than other people's?" /
"My family has a secret sauce handed down from my ancestors. This taste is the only one in the world!" The boss is a big fat man and looks very happy.
"Let's have a little bit of everything. I like meat very much." When Chen Ge was talking, he had been secretly observing the boss and staff and found no problems. This seemed to be a very normal deli.
After paying the money, Chen Ge left with a large bag of cooked food.
It was already dark, but the street was still full of traffic. Not only did it not become deserted, but it became more and more lively.
"Xinhai is a big city after all." Carrying two large bags and the bag of cooked food, Chen Ge found Shangguan Qinghong's haunted house on the corner of the street. Compared with the main road, the crowd here is indeed much less.
"The last time I came here, this was someone else's haunted house."
As soon as Chen Ge entered the haunted house, an employee greeted her enthusiastically, but when she saw Chen Ge's face, she instantly stepped back a few steps.
"Chen, Chen Ge..." The female employee was so impressed with Chen Ge that her boss was hospitalized twice because of this terrifying man in front of her.
"Call me boss in the future, New Century Paradise has bought you here." Chen Ge took out a certificate from his backpack: "Go and call all the free employees, I have something to tell you. ."
The nemesis has become the new boss, and the employees in the hall all look ugly. They look at Chen Ge just like watching the villain in the TV series.
"Don't stand stupidly, hurry up!" Chen Ge had no intention of bullying these employees. Although this haunted house provoked him first, he was a very generous person. Didn't take it to heart at all.
Ten minutes later, several employees wearing ghost makeup hurried out of scenario. Counting the cashier and the handyman in charge of water and electricity logistics, there were a total of five employees standing in the hall.
"Why are you the only ones here? What about the others? Do you want to give me a slap in the face?" Chen Ge had the impression that there were at least a dozen employees in this haunted house.
"There are fewer and fewer tourists, wages can't be paid, and there are rumors of haunted people, many people choose to leave." The female employee whispered: "Because there are not enough staff, now we will open the most popular two points scenario.”
"Occupying such a good location, there will be fewer and fewer tourists? It seems that Shangguan Qinghong really needs to reflect on it." Chen Ge looked at the five remaining employees: "Shangguan Qinghong has already put this place here. If you are willing to continue working here, I welcome it, if not, I will make up for the wages Shangguan Qinghong owes you, so that we can get together and break up.”
The remaining five employees were a little excited when Chen Ge said that they would pay back wages. In the end, including the female front desk employee, four of them chose to leave.
Chen Ge settled their wages on the spot: "Tomorrow you will not use it, I wish you can find a better job."
After the handover, the four employees makeup remover left, leaving only Chen Ge and a female employee in the huge haunted house.
"Why didn't you resign with them?" Chen Ge looked at the female employee and felt a little familiar.
"I usually live here, and if I leave, I don't even have a place to live."
"You must have saved a lot of money after working for so long, right? How come you don't even have a place to rent?" When Chen Ge said this, he forgot that he also lived in a haunted house every day.
"My brother is not in good health. He has to get medical treatment and go to school, which will cost a lot. If I can save it, I will try to save as much as possible." The female employee whispered. She seemed to be afraid of Chen Ge, but for the salary And where she lived, she bit her head and stood where she was.
"Have trouble at home?" Chen Ge nodded: "You add me WeChat first, and I'll make up for the salary owed by Shangguan Qinghong. You can stay here and work in the future."
"Thank you... Boss."
"Have we met before? I always think you look familiar."
"My name is Hu Die, and everyone calls me Xiao Die. When you visited here last time, I played a game of pen fairy with you." The female employee whispered back.
"It's you! I almost didn't recognize it after I took off my makeup." Chen Ge thought of this girl, when he and Xiaodie were playing the pen fairy game together. In the second game, he hid the real pen Xian's ballpoint pen was taken out, and Xiaodie was directly stunned.
In order to prevent embarrassment, Chen Ge changed the subject: "It is said that our haunted house is really haunted. You have experienced it yourself. Why do you still insist on working here? Are you not afraid?"
"There is nothing in this world that scares me more than being poor." Xiaodie held her hands together, her family environment seemed to be very bad.
"Don't think about those unhappy things, do it well, I can't guarantee that you will be rich in the future, but at least there is no problem with doubling your salary." Chen Ge doesn't like to say empty words and clichés, he speaks in general All he can do.
"The employee benefits here are much better than yours before. You'd better find a place to live first. I'm not driving you away. After I came here last time, I found that your haunted house really has problems. ." Chen Ge stared at Xiaodie's eyes: "There seems to be something unclean at night. For your safety, let's move out."
Fluttershy nodded, looking a little pitiful.
"Come on, take me around the haunted house. I was in a hurry last time. I haven't seen a lot of scenario yet."
Chen Ge and Xiaodie entered the haunted house, and before they saw a few scenarios, Xiaodie's phone suddenly rang.
Seeing caller ID, Xiaodie walked to the side with embarrassment and answered the phone.
"Sister, where are you? Can I stay with you tonight?" A boy's voice came from the phone, and there was a cry in his voice.
Xiaodie is very embarrassed. Chen Ge just told her that she can't live here, and she doesn't know how to answer her brother: "Aren't you living in school? Why did you sneak out?"
"I really can't live there anymore."
"They bullied you again?" Xiaodie was a little angry.
"Sister, don't ask, I'm at the door of your haunted house now, you can just let me stay for one night." The boy begged desperately, Xiaodie looked at Chen Ge helplessly, she opened her mouth and didn't speak, Chen Ge Song nodded in agreement.
"No problem, you can let him live here for one night today, but it's not a long-term solution. You'd better find out why he doesn't want to live on campus."
"Thank you boss." Xiaodie hung up the phone and ran out of scenario with Chen Ge.
At this moment in the hall of the haunted house is a thin and thin high school student with very white skin. He has a narrow skeleton, a wound on his face, and a pair of glasses that have been trampled in his hand.
“Why did you come here by yourself?” Xiaodie saw the high school student and hurried over. She took out the wet wipes from under the counter and helped the high school student wipe off his clothes and dust on his arm: “I’m going to find a Band-Aid. , you don't run around here."
After Xiaodie left, Chen Ge and the high school students were left in the hall.
"Can your school allow resident students to leave the school at will at night?" Chen Ge put the two large bags in his hand on the seat, and took two glasses of water. in front of life.
The male student didn't pick up the water that Chen Ge handed over. He didn't seem to like Chen Ge too much: "Are you and my sister a colleague? Why are you two here today?"
"Can't you?" Chen Ge took a sip of the water from the cup and smiled.
The auras of the two are not at the same level at all. Little brother Xiaodie stood there, holding the glasses that were trampled on, silently not saying a word.
A moment later, Xiaodie ran over with the medicine box of the haunted house and gave her brother a brief treatment of the wound.
In the middle, Xiaodie asked her brother what happened many times, but her brother didn't say anything until after the wound was healed, and her brother walked into the haunted house with a schoolbag. He seemed to know where the haunted house staff restroom was. It's not the first time he's taken refuge in a haunted house.
"Hu Yuan! Wait!" Xiaodie shouted twice before the high school student stopped.
"I don't want to say anything, can you please stop asking!" Hu Yuan's emotions fluctuated greatly, and his heart was obviously very painful.
"This is Chen Ge, the new boss of Nightmare Academy. You have to live in a haunted house, at least with his approval. This is the most basic courtesy." Xiaodie dragged Hu Yuan to Chen Ge's side.
"He can live here, but what can he change by hiding here for a night?" Chen Ge walked up to Hu Yuan: "Fear will not dissipate just because you avoid it, you have to face it sooner or later, it is better to say it out. , let me and your sister help you find a way."
Since getting the black phone, Chen Ge has encountered countless problem children and has accumulated a wealth of experience.
Under his constant guidance, Hu Yuan finally told the truth.
There are four people in their dormitory, and the other three always form a group to bully him.
He usually endures it, but this afternoon when school was over, the three little **** shoved him a letter.
Hu Yuan insisted not to. As a result, the three started to make fun of his sister, and finally Hu Yuan fought with the three.
The thin and thin Hu Yuan is of course not the opponent of the three. After being beaten, he didn't want to go back to the dormitory, so he ran to his sister.
A typical school bullying, Xiaodie is very angry and wants to go to the school teacher tomorrow.
"They want to send you a letter?" Chen Ge heard something strange: "Did you want that letter in the end?"
"Cao Fei stuffed the letter to me. I was going to throw it away, but I hesitated after seeing the contents of the letter." Hu Yuan took out a letter from his schoolbag: "Don't read it. Now, I'll figure out a way to get rid of it."
Actually, Chen Ge didn't care at all, but after seeing the envelope, his pupils gradually narrowed. The surface of the letter was left with a dark black mark, which was left after the blood dried up: "Why is there blood on the envelope? ?"
Chen Ge took the letter in his hand, and disregarded Hu Yuan's obstruction to open the letter. In addition to a few hairs of different lengths, there was also a case sheet.
The patient's name was not written on the form, but a few words were written on the back with a red ballpoint pen.
"Please cut one of your hair and put it in the envelope, and give this letter to someone else."
"If you do not pass this letter on to anyone else before dark, I will be at your house at 4:44 am."
"If you still haven't given this letter to anyone else within three days, I will appear in front of you at 4:44 in the morning."
"Curse the envelope? So naive." Chen Ge looked at the hair in the envelope and knew that many people had already touched the envelope.
"You better return the letter to me. I heard Cao Fei say he really saw something last night." Hu Yuan went to get the envelope, but Chen Ge avoided it.
"The most important task at your age is to study hard, and you don't need to worry about other things." Chen Ge patted Hu Yuan's shoulder: "The person who gave you this letter is called Cao Fei, Right?"
"Yes."
"He lives on campus like you?"
"What do you want to do?" Hu Yuan was stunned, looking at his sister, Xiaodie didn't know what Chen Ge wanted to do.
"I'm going to appear by his bed at 4:44 in the morning tonight." Chen Ge smiled and put away the envelope: "Just kidding, you go to rest inside first."
With a relaxed and natural expression, Chen Ge acted as if nothing had happened. He asked Xiaodie to show him all the scenarios, and then locked himself in the principal's office.
"The configuration of Nightmare Academy is better than that of the House of Horrors. These props alone are worth a lot of money." Chen Ge opened the comic book and asked the red-clothed people to carefully search every corner of the Haunted House. After the danger, he was completely relieved.
"There are two things to do tonight, to investigate the deli, and to figure out the source of the cursed envelope." Chen Ge has seen many case sheets, but he is still the number one blank case sheet with no name and no photos attached. time to see.
"I'll go to Cao Fei after the early morning, and look up one by one, I will definitely find the source of the curse." Chen Ge put his legs on the principal's desk and changed a comfortable position: "The school is A place to study, and all those who make a student's mind are unforgivable."
