The light in the haunted house is very dim, and there are gusts of cold wind that make people feel uneasy. Coupled with some sound effects, it is enough to evoke the fear deep in one's heart.
Even so, Igarashi Runa, who was walking in front, was not afraid at all.
It's not because she's not afraid of ghosts, but because she's in a good mood.
She had already noticed that the two people behind her were walking closely together, arm in arm.
"I have to find a chance to slip away and give them enough space." Igarashi Runa thought to himself.
She glanced back furtively, and then quietly quickened her pace.
This was a very subtle movement. If you didn't keep looking at her, you wouldn't even notice that she was walking very fast.
"Kurosawa, you better keep working on it."
A few minutes later, Igarashi Runa looked back. It was dark and gloomy, but there was no one there. He let out a long sigh and muttered to himself.
After a day of preparation, the biggest assist was finally done.
As for what the relationship between Kurosawa and Chizuru will become after this haunted house trip, she doesn't care. Anyway, she has done her best.
After thinking about it, she did not stop, but continued to walk quickly, to further increase the distance and absolutely eliminate the possibility of being caught up.
However, the fact that the Ciji General Hospital is known as the most terrifying haunted house in the world is not undeserved.
"ah… "
As Igarashi Runa advanced alone, a sound like a subconscious cry of pain directly pulled away its mysterious veil.
The sound was very strange, like the wailing of a patient lying in bed, tortured by illness.
The place where the patient was located was right in front of the door not far ahead. It was the only way to go and it could not even be crossed.
Hearing the voice, Igarashi Runa suddenly came to her senses, looked around, and suddenly realized that she was facing this most terrifying haunted house alone.
"The staff at the haunted house are all actors, it's all fake."
A man of great skill is bold and courageous. Igarashi Runa considered herself experienced because her class had held a haunted house during the school festival in high school. She muttered to herself, comforted herself, and continued walking forward.
She was not afraid and walked straight in.
Sure enough, there were three beds in the room, all in a mess, curtains that had long been gray and stained, and a person.
"Gurgle!"
Even though she convinced herself that it was fake, Igarashi Runa subconsciously took a look and her body stiffened.
Lying on the hospital bed was a man whose face was disfigured by the flames, with burn scars all over his face. At least 70% of his body was wrapped in bloody bandages, and both his hands were hooked up to IV bottles with intravenous tubes hanging in the air.
Thankfully, the patient was completely motionless and not moving at all... It looked scary, but it wasn't dangerous.
“The makeup technique is amazing.”
Igarashi Runa forced a smile and gave him a thumbs up to show encouragement and to comfort herself.
“Da da da da!”
At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded from behind. It was the sound of high heels stepping on the ground, and they were walking towards this side quickly.
"!" Igarashi Runa was frightened by the sudden visitor. She looked back and it seemed that someone was walking towards her in the darkness. Her scalp went numb and she quickly ran forward.
The horror of a haunted house is hard to describe, because it is designed by humans to scare people. It is not just visual, but an all-round experience.
Environment, light, sound, people, situation, a series of factors combined together.
In other words, unless there is no emotion of fear or terror, there is always a way to scare people.
…
In the darkness, Kurosawa Hikaru and Ninomiya Chizuru are walking together.
Their steps were very slow, they didn't walk fast, they took one step at a time.
Ninomiya Chizuru didn't say anything, but just held Kurosawa Mitsuru's arm tightly and looked around nervously, afraid that a ghost would suddenly jump out from some dark corner.
Compared to her fear, Kurosawa Hikaru was in a very good mood.
In fact, he was also very afraid of ghosts. After all, even if he had a system, he did not have super powers. He was still a mortal after all. He would instinctively feel afraid and uncomfortable in such a dark and gloomy environment.
Even so, most of his fear was numbed by the warmth he felt in his arm.
The two people were almost pressed together, and the pungent smell of disinfectant in the hospital had faded, replaced by a refreshing scent of hair and perfume.
Comfortable, very comfortable.
This is not only physically refreshing, but also mentally refreshing.
Because he found that after entering the haunted house, he didn't even have to do anything, Mr. Ninomiya was already holding his arm and wouldn't let go.
If we continue like this, it won’t be long before the five-minute task is completed.
Apart from that, he felt that Miss Ninomiya's trembling little woman appearance after she took off her strength and calmness was really cute and pitiable.
Perhaps we could see some clues when we were on the roller coaster, but it is only now that it is complete.
"Kurosawa, where's Runa?"
After walking for a while, Ninomiya Chizuru suddenly realized something.
"Yeah, where's Ms. Runa?"
Kurosawa Hikaru had already noticed that Igarashi Runa had walked away, but he pretended to be unaware of the question.
"Runa, Runa." Realizing that her best friend was missing, Ninomiya Chizuru, who was already scared, suddenly lost her composure and called out hurriedly several times.
The shouts echoed in the empty and gloomy corridor, but there was no response.
"What should I do? Runa is missing. Is it possible that he is in danger?"
Chizuru Ninomiya, who was originally worried about her own safety, began to worry about the situation of her best friend.
"It shouldn't be. This is a haunted house, not a haunted house. Maybe he is hiding somewhere and watching the show." Kurosawa Mitsuru shook his head and comforted him.
"But I heard that there were paranormal incidents in this haunted house... There might really be ghosts here."
Ninomiya Chizuru didn't think so. She looked around again, her heart beating wildly. It was not because she was heartbeating, but because she was scared by her own words.
Because she had an appointment to visit Fuji-Q Highland last night, she went online to check for information about the park.
Among all these, what concerned her most was the haunted house.
"Since we're here, let's just finish the journey."
Kurosawa Hikaru could feel her body trembling, and his attention was diverted from feeling comfortable, so he comforted her.
"Yeah." Ninomiya Chizuru nodded reluctantly.
Although I was nervous, after walking for a while, I felt very safe and nothing happened.
For Kurosawa Hikaru, there is another good news, that is, the mission progress has been updated and the mission goal of hugging his arms has been achieved.
"ah… "
But at this moment, a groan came from the front.
This sound instantly attracted the attention of two people and they looked forward.
In the darkness, I could vaguely see an open door, blocking the way forward.
The room had a dim light, which was very conspicuous in the darkness.
"Kurosawa, why don't we go back?"
Realizing that she had to enter the room, Ninomiya Chizuru, who had just mustered up the courage, hugged her arms even tighter and began to back out.
