83: Hong Ling was treated as an ordinary employee

The tightly shut Haunted House gate was now opening.

Seeing this, everyone gathered outside was stunned.

The Haunted House owner was still livestreaming on his phone, so who opened the gate?

"Welcome, everyone, please queue in an orderly fashion."

Just as everyone was wondering, a pleasant voice rang in their ears.

A woman in a long red dress appeared outside the gate.

With a beautiful face and an elegant demeanor, she looked as if she had stepped out of an ancient drama.

Looking at the crowd standing outside the gate, Red Spirit's thin lips curved slightly, and a captivating smile flashed across her face.

"Are we... not going to make the Boss angry by doing this?"

In Red Spirit's mind, a hoarse voice sounded.

Inside the Hundred Ghosts Cemetery, the Zombie sat uneasily on a coffin, a clear look of hesitation visible on its terrifying face.

Previously, after the Boss and others entered the Castle, only Red Spirit and the Zombie remained in the entire Haunted House.

The Zombie had originally planned to sleep for a while, but Red Spirit suddenly found him.

With just a few words, the Zombie was so bewildered by Red Spirit that he foolishly agreed to go out and scare the players outside later.

By the time he realized what was happening, Red Spirit had already opened the Haunted House gate.

Acting so presumptuously, the Zombie was now very conflicted.

He worried that his and Red Spirit's actions would displease the Boss.

Getting a pay cut would be fine, but if they were fired because of this, it would be a huge loss.

"What are you worried about?"

"We are helping the Boss with his worries. The Boss will be happy, not angry."

"Don't think about it anymore, get ready, it's time to welcome guests~"

Red Spirit responded to the Zombie a few times, then, with a smile on her face, she began to receive the players outside.

Taking out agreements, scanning QR codes for payment—she handled everything professionally.

Almost all of these players who came to challenge were amazed by Red Spirit's demeanor; many had shining eyes and secretly took photos with their phones.

They hadn't noticed before that Tianfeng Haunted House had such a beautiful employee. Could she be a new hire?

Indeed, these people all mistook Red Spirit for an employee of the Haunted House.

Soon, under her arrangements, dozens of players successively signed agreements and purchased tickets.

Although Red Spirit was beautiful, most of them were still focused on the Castle inside the Haunted House.

They came this time specifically to challenge and experience what kind of secret room could scare various Streamers so badly.

Unexpectedly, just as these people were about to head to the Castle, Red Spirit stopped them.

"I'm sorry, this Castle is not open to the public today."

Looking at the players in front of her, Red Spirit said sweetly.

Those who were initially annoyed by being stopped were almost melted by her charming and pleasant voice.

Immediately, their anger dissipated.

However, there was still some disappointment.

Seemingly noticing this, Red Spirit covered her mouth and spoke again: "Actually, our shop has other fun places, everyone can try them."

"I believe you absolutely won't be disappointed."

After speaking, a strange glint flashed in the depths of Red Spirit's eyes.

She still remembered what the Boss told her when she was summoned earlier.

As long as she could scare a large number of players, her salary would increase.

"We've already looked into the other scenes in your Haunted House; they are all outdated."

"Only this Castle interests us slightly."

Because Tianfeng Haunted House had no reputation before, very few people would come to such a remote place.

Almost all of the people who came today were escape room enthusiasts.

They had done their research before coming; in the entire Tianfeng Haunted House, apart from this newly opened Castle, there was nothing else that attracted them.

Previously, the Zombie hadn't gained much popularity because Song Yang's livestream room closed too quickly.

Moreover, there were simply too many NPCs of the Zombie type in domestic Haunted Houses.

Now, most netizens only knew that there was a Butcher with a chainsaw in Tianfeng Haunted House.

And now, this Butcher was in the Castle before their eyes.

"Hehe, actually, the reason our shop is closed today is that some scenes inside have been renovated and upgraded."

"Don't you all want to experience it?"

Facing everyone's chatter, Red Spirit didn't seem very anxious.

Hearing her words, these players indeed became interested.

"Is it a new scene, like the Castle?"

"I knew the Boss of this Tianfeng Haunted House was definitely not ordinary!"

"First, invite Streamers to explore the shop, then increase visibility, and then slowly renovate and upgrade."

"It seems the Boss behind the Haunted House has great ambitions!"

Several players said with great excitement.

Hearing this, some people who were originally still uninterested gradually showed curiosity on their faces.

The Haunted House employee had already said that the Castle was not open to the public today, so it was clearly impossible to force their way in.

Besides, facing Red Spirit, they couldn't do such an unreasonable thing.

So, everyone finally happily decided not to go to the Castle and first see what areas in the Haunted House had been renovated.

Meanwhile, on the other side, inside the Devils Castle.

Li Zhou still didn't know that the third terrifying employee he had recruited had already taken it upon herself to open the main gate.

After the continuous efforts of Chen Ze and the others, they finally found new clues in the attic.

Previously, upon entering the Castle, everyone found a crucifix prop on the Jesus statue.

However, now, the Jesus statue was inexplicably shattered, leaving only its head intact.

Initially, the few of them didn't pay much attention, but Chen Ze, perhaps in a flash of inspiration, felt that something wasn't quite right.

Looking at the head of Jesus on the statue's remains, his eyes flashed, and he immediately made a move that surprised both Dai Xiaomei and Old Hei.

He picked up Jesus's head and directly smashed it onto the ground.

"What the heck, Ze, what are you doing?"

Old Hei was about to reach out to stop him but was ultimately a step too late.

Jesus's head shattered into pieces.

Although almost no one in China cared much about Jesus, he was still a legendary figure.

Such an action, coupled with Chen Ze being a public figure, would inevitably attract the attention of those with ulterior motives.

【The Streamer is so brave! Isn't he afraid of being targeted by some people who believe in Jesus?】

【Jesus? In China, let alone Jesus, even if God came, it wouldn't work. I don't believe in Chinese gods, let alone foreign ones!】

【What the person upstairs said is right. In China, I only respect one god, and that is the God of Wealth!】

【Me too】
