26: Damn it, this just created an opportunity for that kid, didn't it? There's something on the window...

"Hehe, that Pretty Boy just now didn't look like he could take a scare. Maybe he'll scream even louder than the Young Lady later!"

"Don't even mention it, I once saw a man in the surveillance footage who was so scared he was yelling and screaming, while his girlfriend was completely calm."

"Shhh, quiet, quiet. We still need to add some spice for them later, play some scary atmospheric music, haha!"

...Several Haunted House staff members gathered in front of the monitor, watching the three people on the screen with great interest.

That's right!

The people they were staring at were Xu Lu and the two beautiful Young Ladies, Xiao Mei and Xiao Xian, who had just walked in.

"It's so eerie in here, and there's a musty smell, it's a bit unpleasant."

Xiao Mei suddenly said.

Xiao Xian, who was holding her arm, also nodded repeatedly and said:

"I don't know why, but as soon as I walked into this place, the hairs on my arms stood up.

Hey, you two, look quickly, are there a lot of talismans on this wall? Hiss... so scary!"

As soon as she said this.

The two Young Ladies quickly let go of each other's hands, and then, one on each side, linked arms with Xu Lu, putting him in the middle.

This scene made the group of people watching the surveillance extremely envious.

Each of them stared intently at the screen, wishing that the person being held by the two Young Ladies in the video was themselves.

Of course, there was a good reason for their envy, because Xu Lu also felt quite good at this moment.

Especially since although the two beauties were not old, their developed areas were not at all modest, and the feeling was even clearer when they linked arms with him.

However, Xiao Mei and Xiao Xian were so startled that they had no mind to care about these small details, and thus let Xu Lu enjoy the moment.

"Let's go, these talismans are just props. Let's go into the room ahead and see, maybe it's the correct path!"

Xu Lu smiled and said.

The two Young Ladies basically had no opinions of their own. Hearing Xu Lu say this, they nodded repeatedly and almost followed Xu Lu all the way forward.

Soon, the three pushed open a door, and with a creaking sound, everything in the room was revealed.

A messy desk, and a dim yellow light bulb flickering in the corner, making the entire room seem a bit eerie.

Just then, with a click, the bookshelf on the desk suddenly fell down.

A skull, still with a few strands of white hair, rolled out. Xu Lu's excellent eyesight even allowed him to see mealworms crawling on the skull.

Of course, the two Young Ladies certainly didn't observe that closely, because as soon as the skull fell, both of them closed their eyes and screamed loudly.

Fortunately, they still remembered their previous agreement with Xu Lu, so they didn't forget to cover their ears while screaming.

So Xu Lu, no longer being held, stepped forward and tapped the skull that had just fallen out, finding it was made of metal.

It was just painted white.

As for the mealworms, there was nothing strange about them; they were probably simulating a rotting scene.

For ordinary people, seeing a skull itself is scary, let alone with mealworms crawling on it to make the scene more realistic?

It's just a pity that none of this meant anything to Xu Lu.

Actually, in the past, his courage might not have been so great, but now that his strength had improved, his courage had also increased.

At the same time.

Upon hearing the familiar screams, the Haunted House staff members in front of the monitor cheered excitedly.

Being able to scare beautiful Young Ladies was the only amusement in their boring work.

But soon, they discovered something that annoyed them.

Because the Pretty Boy, who was enjoying the company of the two beautiful Young Ladies and whom they wanted to scare even more, wasn't scared at all!

"Quickly, play the scary music and add some spice for this Pretty Boy! I don't believe we can't scare this kid!"

One of the staff members said.

Then, in that room, the two girls who had just been comforted by Xu Lu and stopped screaming.

When they heard the terrifying music, they shuddered and immediately hugged Xu Lu in the middle, trembling.

This scene made the staff even more annoyed. Damn it, didn't this just create an opportunity for that kid!

..."Brother Xu, you're so brave, you're not scared at all. We really found the right person to help us!"

Xiao Mei, who was finally no longer scared, said.

Xiao Xian also nodded, pointed at the skull, and said:

"Yeah, if Brother Xu wasn't here, we'd probably have fainted from fright just seeing this thing. I didn't expect it to be fake.

But even if it's fake, the crawling bugs on it are disgusting. Oh, let's get out of here quickly!"

Xu Lu readily agreed and led the two girls out of the room.

The first floor of the building seemed to have fewer horror elements, probably to give visitors a transition period.

Overall, only the room where they saw the skull was particularly scary; the other places, with that one as a baseline, seemed much more ordinary.

So even Xiao Mei and Xiao Xian's screams were much less frequent later on.

After exploring the first floor, the three began to go up to the second floor.

"Actually, it's not as scary as everyone says, hahahaha, only that skull was a bit terrifying!"

Xiao Mei, who felt like she was close to conquering the place, said cheerfully as she walked.

Xiao Xian clearly shared her sentiment, nodding and saying:

"Exactly! When we get out, we can brag to others, those cowards..."

Hearing the words of these two Young Ladies, Xu Lu did not interject.

After all, it hadn't been long since someone let out astonishing screams in that room, and he still remembered.

Meanwhile, outside.

The Haunted House staff members, who had been staring at the monitor, finally perked up again after seeing the three go up to the second floor.

"Alright, we must scare that Pretty Boy on the second floor, but I don't think it'll be a problem!"

"Dim the lights more, make the atmosphere scarier, and activate the cold wind in the Shadow Room..."

"No problem, if this doesn't scare that Pretty Boy, I'll poop upside down, hahahaha.

How many brave people in the past were so scared on our second floor that they didn't dare to continue!"

"Exactly! With the cold wind blowing in these dim little rooms, anyone would get goosebumps."

...Under the keen gaze of these staff members, the three arrived at a place similar to a projection room.

As soon as they stepped in, they heard a crackle, and the light bulb, which had been relatively bright, immediately went out.

Only some faint light from the adjacent room shone through the cracks and the frosted glass window.

"Xiao Xian, why do I feel a wind blowing on my neck? What's going on?"

"Huh, I also feel someone blowing on my neck, wow! I'm so scared, Brother Xu!"

Feeling the weight on him increase significantly, Xu Lu helplessly comforted them:

"It's nothing, it's just the air conditioner's cold air, don't overthink it!"

Who knew that just as he finished comforting them, Xiao Xian on his left spoke tremblingly:

"Look quickly, look quickly, there's something on that window..."
