Chapter 327 [Xiao Guang's Doll]

Wang Mengmeng felt as if she were sick, like having a 39-degree fever; she had no strength at all, was delirious, and just wanted to sleep.

The moment Chen Yu retracted his ghost head blade, he looked toward the Opera Stage. He needed to confirm whether the Little Boy could be killed now that the time had been broken.

His gaze swept across every corner of the Theater: the iron frames, the ceiling, behind the curtains, and the shadows of the pillars.

Nothing.

"Creak—" At the same time, the main door of the quiet Theater opened.

Only at this moment was Chen Yu certain that everything was over.

But he still did not dare to put away his blade.

A few seconds later, the familiar notification sound appeared:

[ Haunted House · Playthrough Ended ]

[ Facility Original Rating: S-Rank ]

[ Unconventional clearance method detected—did not collect the seven partners' remains, did not complete hidden tasks, killed the key unique character ]

[ Facility rules in chaos... timeline damaged... ]

[ Facility rating forcibly upgraded: S-Rank → SSS+ Rank ]

[ Warning: Key unique character _ Xiaoguang has been killed ]

[ Penalty: Deducting Low-grade Energy Core × 100 from Vehicle Baby Bus ]

[ Warning: Because key unique character _ Xiaoguang has been killed, evidence of the old days cannot be obtained through conventional means ]

[ Note: Adjusted to killer's reward ]

[ Reward: Xiaoguangs Homework Notebook (Already obtained) ]

[ This facility carried a total of 13 passengers, 6 survived ]

[ Next Facility — — ]

[ Carousel ]

[ Will open promptly tomorrow morning at 8:00. Please arrive at the facility entrance in advance; do not be late ]

[ Current time is free exploration. Supply crates have been deployed within the Amusement Park; passengers may search for food, drinking water, medical supplies, and other materials on their own ]

[ Amusement Park rules reiterated: Do not damage amusement facilities; do not enter facility areas during non-opening hours ]

Chen Yu directly ignored the "Deducting Low-grade Energy Core × 100" notification. After all, his backpack was already overflowing with building materials.

He even remembered that in the previous notification, it would say: [ Try not to loiter near the Haunted House ].

But this time, it was not there.

And what truly caught his attention was—

So this Haunted House was not meant to be cleared this way.

They had forcefully turned an S-Rank facility into an SSS+ Rank one???

No wonder it was so perverted.

"Brother Yu... this... this is not right, is it?"

Wang Mengmeng stammered. By the time she heard the notification, she was already numb.

She said cautiously: "This time, the notification seems exceptionally long..."

Chen Yu: "..."

Yang Kexin was the first to run out of the passage. She rushed to Wang Mengmeng's side and glanced at Chen Yu.

"Did you guys hear that? That notification, the one about deducting a hundred Energy Cores!"

Chen Yu picked his ear: "I am not deaf."

Zuo Shi followed behind, feeling some lingering fear: "I told you... how could a Haunted House mission be this terrifying... it was basically a fight to the death!"

Flyer was playing "This is the feeling of flying, this is the feeling of freedom" on the side while turning down the volume.

"Um..."

"It must be that guy Lin Yuan, he sucked away all our luck!"

Flyer said indignantly, then suddenly thought of something and hurriedly changed the music to a sad, wordless BGM.

He walked quickly to Red Hair's side, not knowing what to say.

Chen Yu withdrew his gaze, "Let's go."

But just as he finished speaking, a large notebook suddenly appeared in Chen Yu's hand.

Chen Yu put away his ghost head blade and flipped through it casually...

The first page had three crooked characters written on it—Homework Notebook.

Wang Mengmeng was stunned for a moment: "This is..."

Chen Yu nodded: "It should be the evidence of the old days mentioned in the notification."

He flipped to the second page, the third page...

They were all simple arithmetic problems, but in the bottom right corner of the problems were dates,

July 1, 1998

July 2, 1998

July 3, 1998

Classic old dates.

The next second, another notification appeared:

[ Key clue detected: Xiaoguangs Homework ]

[ Hidden mission "Cage of Memories" activated ]

[ Mission objective: Collect seven pieces of evidence of the old days (7/7) ]

[ Mission reward: xiao guangs doll ]

[ Mission complete — — ]

The three girls from Baby Bus all heard this sound.

Wang Mengmeng was silent for a long while: "Brother Yu, you scattered his ashes, yet he still has to give you a doll..."

Chen Yu: "..."

A golden light flashed, and in Chen Yu's hand appeared a palm-sized doll with a round head, stuffed plump with cotton, wearing a little light blue cotton dress, with a few crooked little flowers embroidered on the hem.

Chen Yu had some impression of it; was this not...

"Is this not the one I took before! It was later snatched away by the Little Boy!"

Flyer looked shocked: "Is this some kind of important item!"

Wang Mengmeng curled her lip: "Yeah, this is the one whose skirt you lifted..."

Flyer "er"ed: "I was just checking, seeing if there was anything wrong with the doll!"

Chen Yu ignored them and checked it himself:

[ xiao guangs doll ]

Description: In the legends of the Naha tribe, there exist countless bizarre objects. They are all regarded as taboos, and each one will bring about the disaster of genocide.

Effect: After binding, when receiving a fatal attack, the doll will bear half of the damage.

"?"

"When receiving a fatal attack..."

Chen Yu's expression changed, and he immediately bound the doll to himself.

A ray of light flashed.

Chen Yu could already see the information about the binder under the doll's notification.

The reward for this hidden mission far exceeded Chen Yu's expectations.

This was tantamount to giving Chen Yu a second life.

Especially when facing sudden situations, the value of this doll far exceeded the golden body card.

It was just a pity...

This doll was sent directly into his hand and could not be returned via red luan.

Otherwise, if he possessed hundreds of these dolls, he could practically treat the Haunted House as his own backyard.

"Brother Yu, let's leave quickly."

Wang Mengmeng looked at the Opera Stage behind her, her voice still a bit tense.

She thought again of the child's face that had suddenly appeared not long ago.

Chen Yu nodded: "Let's go, get some rest. Tomorrow is the last day."

"Big Brother! Wait for me!!!"

Flyer closed Red Hair's eyes, then hugged the speaker and whispered: "I will carry your speaker and survive."

Then he got up and ran towards Chen Yu and the others.

Wang Mengmeng gave him a dirty look: "Why are you following us? We are from Baby Bus, you are not..."

Flyer fawned: "Hey! Big Sister Mengmeng, you are wrong there. Although my body is not in Baby Bus, my heart is there, my soul is there!"

He continued: "After we leave the Amusement Park, I can be in the second team. I will specialize in gathering information for you guys!"

Chen Yu interrupted ruthlessly: "The information I cannot find, you will not be able to find either."

Flyer: "..."

Zuo Shi leaned in: "Chen Yu, where are we going now? Are we resting directly? Not going to look for that guy Lin Yuan?"

Chen Yu waved his hand: "No need, he will definitely go to the Carousel tomorrow..."
