A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

Lu Yang opened the door.

It was so dark inside that you couldn't see anything.

The air conditioner was set to a very low temperature, and cold air was blowing out of it.

Lu Yang went first.

Li Xixue pulled him along and followed behind.

The corridor was narrow, and it was a bit cramped for two people to walk side by side.

"Are you alright?" Lu Yang asked.

"nonsense."

Lu Yang didn't ask any more questions.

After walking for a while, a corner appeared ahead.

Turn the corner, and you'll find an even narrower corridor.

Several paintings hung on the walls on both sides, containing black and white photographs that looked rather eerie under the red light.

At the end of the corridor was a half-open door, through which a sliver of blue light shone.

Lu Yang pushed open the door.

Inside was a small room, furnished like a morgue.

Several beds were covered with white sheets, and some shapes were raised under the sheets.

Lu Yang walked in and looked around.

"That seems plausible."

Li Xixue also walked in, the light from her phone shining on the wall.

"Put your phone away," Lu Yang said.

Why?

"Having your phone on completely ruins the atmosphere, unless you're scared..."

Before Lu Yang could finish speaking...

Li Xixue immediately turned off her phone screen.

The room went dark instantly.

Only the blue light in the corner remained, flickering on and off.

Two people were standing in the middle of the room.

There was silence for about three seconds.

Then--

The white sheet on the bed on the left moved slightly.

Li Xixue caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of her eye.

Her body instinctively shifted half a step to the right.

It just so happened that it bumped into Lu Yang's arm.

Lu Yang glanced down at her.

"I……"

Li Xixue said in a flat voice, "The air conditioning in here is a bit cold."

"..."

Lu Yang did not expose her.

The white cloth stopped moving.

The two walked forward, passed through the morgue, and entered the next area.

This time it was a longer corridor, with mirrors on both sides of the walls.

Those distorted mirrors reflect crooked and warped images.

Li Xixue took two steps and suddenly stopped in front of a mirror.

In the mirror, there was another figure behind her.

It's not Lu Yang.

Lu Yang was on her left.

The figure was behind her to the right.

Li Xixue stared at the mirror for a second.

Then she turned her head.

There was nothing to the right rear.

Look in the mirror again.

The figure had vanished.

Li Xixue frowned slightly and quickened her pace.

Lu Yang caught up: "What did you see?"

"no."

The two continued walking forward.

Another corner appeared ahead.

Lu Yang turned the corner first.

Then he stopped.

"What's wrong?" Li Xixue followed.

There was a person standing behind the corner.

A woman dressed in white, her hair down to cover her face, her hands hanging at her sides.

Not moving at all.

Lu Yang glanced at it for two seconds.

"It's fake, isn't it?"

The voice just fell.

The woman in white moved her head.

Slowly, little by little, veer to the right.

A strand of hair slipped down her face, revealing one eye.

Staring straight at them.

Then her mouth opened.

It let out a sharp screech.

Li Xixue suddenly grabbed Lu Yang's arm.

It was quite powerful.

Lu Yang felt his arm being pinched.

Her fingers were clenched tightly.

The woman in white started walking forward, very quickly, her footsteps making almost no sound.

"You still say you're not afraid?"

Li Xixue's voice came from the darkness: "Who said they were afraid?"

"Then why are you still holding my hand?"

Li Xixue's fingers loosened slightly.

But it's not completely loose.

This woman is all talk and no action.

At the end of the corridor, there was another door.

Lu Yang pushed open the door and went inside.

This time it's a relatively large room.

Other than that, there's nothing special about it.

"Let's go."

As soon as Lu Yang turned around, Li Xixue tugged at the corner of his clothes.

"Wait a moment."

"What's wrong?"

Li Xixue tilted her head, as if listening to something.

Besides the humming of the flickering lights, there was another sound in the room.

Very small.

It sounded like someone was talking.

Lu Yang heard it too.

The sound came from the other end of the room.

There was a door over there, but it was closed, and the sound was leaking out from under the door.

And it wasn't just one person.

Lu Yang frowned.

Is this haunted house multi-line?

Will people who enter through different entrances eventually end up in the same place?

He walked up to the door and listened intently.

The man's voice sounded a little flustered: "Baby, don't hold on so tightly, my hands are all bruised."

The woman's voice grew even more panicked: "Shut up! Did the cabinet in front move?"

"No, no, that's just the wind."

"What wind? Where is this wind coming from?"

Upon hearing this...

Li Xixue stood next to Lu Yang.

The two people looked at each other.

"This way or that way?"

Li Xixue glanced at the arrow, then at the door.

"Over here."

Lu Yang opened the door.

Behind the door is a very short passage.

The passageway led to another room, from which red light shone.

The two people went inside.

This room is larger and has been decorated to resemble an abandoned hospital corridor.

There are several ward doors on both sides, some open and some closed.

The sound is clearer now.

It's just a dozen meters ahead.

Lu Yang could vaguely see two figures.

One was taller and was wearing light-colored clothes.

The shorter one was right next to the taller one.

They were walking forward with their backs to Lu Yang and Li Xixue.

"Let me tell you, this haunted house is a scam, it's all fake," the man's voice said.

"Then why is your voice trembling?" asked the woman.

"I'm not shaking, my throat is sore."

Did you just call out?

"I didn't shout, that was a sound effect."

Li Xixue frowned as she listened to the conversation between the two people in front of her.

The man's voice sounds familiar.

She stopped and tilted her head.

Lu Yang also stopped.

"What's wrong?"

Li Xixue didn't answer, but stared at the two figures in front of her for a few seconds.

The red light was too dim to see faces clearly.

Just then, the two people in front walked to the door of a ward, and the door suddenly slammed open, and an NPC covered in bandages rushed out.

"ah!!!"

The man screamed and turned to run.

The woman also cried out, but instead of running away, she stood there stunned.

The man took two steps, heading straight towards Lu Yang and Li Xixue.

He ran very fast and didn't even look where he was going.

Li Xixue stood in the middle of the passageway.

The man rammed into it headfirst.

Li Xixue did not back down; her reaction was entirely instinctive.

With a flick of his left hand, he grabbed the other person's neck.

Then, with his right hand, he punched the other person in the shoulder.

"Aww—"

Suddenly, a dog howled in pain as if it had stepped on its tail.

It wasn't a ghost's cry, it was a human's cry.

Li Xixue only realized what was happening after she finished typing.

You can't hit people inside a haunted house.

The person who was hit squatted on the ground, hugging his shoulders, grimacing.

Li Xixue's hands remained in a defensive posture as she glanced down.

The red light shone on that face.

Yellow hair.

Li Xixue lowered her hand.

"Li Xiaochen?"
