Mu Xiaoxiao stretched her arms out to hug his waist.
She said in a soft voice, “It doesn’t seem that scary.”
Hearing this, Yin Shaojie smiled. Not scary? If she were to open her eyes and see the scene in front of her, she probably wouldn’t have said this.
Fortunately, he was tough enough mentally to be able to remain unperturbed.
He had to admit that this was really the wrong path to take.
It was obvious that the path on the right was the upgraded version.
Given Mu Xiaoxiao’s timidity, they should have chosen the path on the left.
Yin Shaojie was quite regretful. He hadn’t expected her to be so afraid. He thought that at most some of the haunted house crew would dress up as some scary characters to jump out and scare them.
Mu Xiaoxiao muttered softly again, “When are we getting out? Why does it feel like we’ve been walking for a long time?”
“We should be getting to the end soon,” Yin Shaojie said.
There was another door ahead. He wasn’t afraid, so he reached out his hand to push open the door.
The lights behind the door flickered, and Yin Shaojie said subconsciously, “Walk carefully…”
Before he could finish talking, a group of zombies suddenly came running from the side, and their makeup was quite realistic.
Mu Xiaoxiao was frightened from the sound of hurried footsteps. “What’s happening? What’s happening? Did some monster appear?”
“Let’s go quickly!” Yin Shaojie looked grave as he quickly led her away.
“Wait a minute——ah!” Something suddenly grabbed Mu Xiaoxiao’s hand.
“Xiaoxiao!”
Just then, the lights went off, and all he could see was darkness.
Yin Shaojie stood rooted in place as he tried to locate Mu Xiaoxiao.
Then he heard Mu Xiaoxiao shouting in fright, “Jie! Where are you? Where are you? I’m so scared! I’m so scared! I’m so scared! Ah!”
Hearing her screaming, his heart became tense.
He said calmly, “Stay where you are and don’t move. I will go and find you right now.”
However, Mu Xiaoxiao suddenly became silent, and he could only hear the sound of rapid breathing.
Yin Shaojie had sharp hearing. However, all he heard was the zombies’ messy footsteps behind him.
“Xiaoxiao?” he called out.
Then Mu Xiaoxiao suddenly screamed, “Ah——Jie! Save me! Help!”
A sharp shriek. Then it was silent again.
Yin Shaojie frowned as he walked along the direction where her scream came from. “Xiaoxiao? What’s the matter?”
However, no one replied to him.
Yin Shaojie only felt a chill in his heart. An indescribable feeling gripped him.
Dammit!
What a shitty haunted house!
Just then, the lights turned on. Yin Shaojie raised his hand to block out the glare and quickly adapted to the brightness.
The lights returned to its previous flickering state.
Yin Shaojie looked around but didn’t see Mu Xiaoxiao anywhere.
He clenched his fist and shouted sternly, “Xiaoxiao? Where are you?”
But no one responded to him in the empty space.
Yin Shaojie suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness. Did something happen to her?
Even if it was a haunted house, they couldn’t grab away the guests, could they?
Yin Shaojie couldn’t care about all this anymore, his heart beating in a fluster, feeling deeply regretful.
Damned! They shouldn’t have gone into the haunted house!
After turning the corner, it was only a small space with nowhere to hide. Yin Shaojie didn’t know where Mu Xiaoxiao could have gone. He thought for a moment, and he decided to hurry out of the haunted house and contact the staff.
