Global Horror: With My Netherworld Trillions, Game On!

Chapter 3: Serving at the Inn of the Underworld!

Although the old man looked like a frail, hunchbacked elder on the verge of death, dressed in dull gray clothing, resembling an ancient person, everyone, including the bearded uncle, could feel the terrifying aura emanating from him.

Lin Yu felt as if he were facing some dangerous predator, a fear originating from the soul, like an instinct, warning them that the old man before them was a ghost!

However, no one present showed their fear.

Lin Yu glanced at the others. The young thug trembled uncontrollably. The mature woman clenched her fists, her nails digging into her flesh. But no one dared to cry out. Everyone knew that if they displayed anything unusual now, what awaited them… was likely death!

The old man’s murky eyes scanned them, and a “friendly” yet eerie smile appeared on his face, then he began to speak!

“Cough cough, everyone, welcome to the Yellow Spring Inn!

“This old man is the accountant of the Yellow Spring Inn, here on the orders of the landlady to assign you jobs,” his voice was even more hoarse than his cough, and just hearing it carried a chilling intent, then the old man coughed into his hand again,

“Cough cough… however, before starting work, there are a few rules at our inn that I need to share with you!”

Upon hearing this, the group suppressed their fear and perked up their ears.

The bearded uncle’s warning made them aware that what the old man was about to say would likely be the “basic rules”!

“First, whether you are assigned to the front desk or the kitchen, you must do your best to complete your work… any negligence, heh… the landlady won’t let you off lightly!”

At this point, Lin Yu noticed that a hint of apprehension seemed to flash in the old man’s murky eyes.

It appeared he also feared that landlady!

Indeed, that “landlady” was a more powerful ghost than him, and even this accountant, who might also be a ghost or even a subordinate, could potentially be dealt with by her!

Lin Yu silently noted this.

The old man continued,

“Secondly, the items in the inn are old and dilapidated, easily damaged… If you break anything, you’ll have to compensate at full price.”

The old man deliberately emphasized the word “compensate,” clearly implying something.

A few of them understood…

In this ghostly inn, breaking a plate could cost them their lives!

“Third, remember not to offend the guests… Although the landlady won’t blame you for bumping into a guest, many of our guests have a bad temper… If they find an excuse to reprimand you, the landlady won’t protect you!”

After finishing, the old man let out a sinister laugh, “Alright, does anyone have any questions?”

The bearded uncle remained silent, and the other five naturally did not dare to ask.

The old man nodded in satisfaction and then began to assign tasks.

“Okay, you over there, the big guy. You look strong, go to the kitchen and help Chef Meng with chopping vegetables!”

He first pointed at the bearded uncle.

The bearded uncle nodded, and the old man pointed to the open wooden door, “Turn left after exiting. That’s the kitchen.”

The bearded uncle glanced at everyone, giving them a look that said “take care,” then he walked through the wooden door.

Next, he looked at the mature woman, “You’ll be responsible for cleaning the guest rooms… Turn right when you exit, go to the storage room to find Sister Zhang, who is in charge of cleaning, and she will tell you what to do.”

The mature woman seemed a bit lost. Her face pale, she nodded and then followed the bearded uncle into the wooden door.

After that, the old man turned to the middle-aged man.

“You seem somewhat educated… Go straight out, up to the second floor, and wait in the room marked ‘Accountant’ for me. I’ll call you to settle accounts.”

With that, the middle-aged man in a suit hurried away, leaving only Lin Yu and the petite girl with glasses, who had been keeping her head down.

The old man stared at the two for a long time before slowly speaking,

“Two little kids… tender-skinned, you’ll be the waiters in the main hall… Taking orders, serving food, that shouldn’t need anyone to teach you, right?

“Just go straight in through the door… That’s the main hall.”

The old man said this while revealing a smile at the two, his gaunt face filled with wickedness,

as if he was looking forward to the two of them “making mistakes,” being left behind by this old ghost was already scary enough, coupled with his sinister, evil grin,

Lin Yu couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart, and the petite girl next to him trembled even more.

“Let’s go.” Lin Yu tugged at the now weak-legged petite girl, leading her toward the wooden door, passing by the accountant, they entered the wooden door, which led to a dilapidated, dark corridor, with clutter and firewood piled up on both sides.

Looking up, they could see an ancient three-story building, which should be the main building of the Yellow Spring Inn.

The corridor was filled with cold winds and echoed with the light laughter of angry spirits,

frightening the girl enough.

As if trying to bolster her courage, the previously silent girl finally spoke to Lin Yu in the corridor, “Um… what’s your name?

“I’m Li…”

She was about to introduce herself when Lin Yu interrupted her. “No need to say it out loud. I can just call you Xiao Li!

“Similarly, you can call me Brother Lin.”
