Losing Money to Be a Tycoon-Chapter 1618 - Who’s Playing Who?

Nothing special happened the moment he pushed the door open.

Bao Xu walked in and looked around. There were some random items and scary pranks but he did not find any particularly useful clues.

“It looks like the problem lies in that bloodless room.”

Bao Xu came to the door of the bloodless room again and pushed it open carefully, afraid that he would be killed by the door.

He pushed open the door only after he was mentally prepared and suddenly heard a loud bang.

Bao Xu was so scared that he retreated. However, he did not see anything strange behind the door. Instead, the ceiling by his right hand suddenly cracked. A ferocious-looking hanging ghost fell off it.

“AH!”

Bao Xu was startled, and the nearly jumped out of his skin.

When he saw that it was just a prop, but it was huge and similar to a real person, he relaxed slightly. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

However, the hanging ghost suddenly moved just as he was scrutinizing it!

His long tongue stuck out from his mouth. At the same time, he let out a heart-palpitating mutter. He actually cut off the rope around his neck and sprawled on the ground, crawling towards Bao Xu step by step.

Bao Xu was so scared that he screamed again and ran to the left subconsciously.

He had thought that this hanging ghost was just a prop, so he relaxed his vigilance. However, he did not expect it to suddenly move. This way of appearance was much more creative than Guo Licheng’s way of appearance. Thus, fear defeated his rationality. He did not muster the courage to approach him and ran away.

There was only one path in the entire corridor. The entrance was blocked by the hanging ghost. Bao Xu could only walk to the stairs and close the door.

The hanging ghost stood up in satisfaction seeing Bao Xu escape upstairs as expected.

Chen Kangtuo spoke into the Bluetooth earphones. “Old Qiao, pay attention. Brother Bao has gone up. We’ll follow the original plan.”

At the same time, Qiao Liang was hiding in the room at the end of the corridor. He quickly hid in the cabinet next to him after hearing Chen Kangtuo’s instructions.

This cabinet was specially made and was very spacious. Qiao Liang did not feel cramped even though he was wearing a costume as a ghost.

Through the gap in the cabinet, one could clearly see the ‘corpse’ on the bed outside.

There were light footsteps outside. Obviously, Bao Xu had calmed down and realized that the hanging ghost was not chasing after him. After going upstairs, Bao Xu decided to continue searching the remaining two rooms on the map, which were Qiao Liang’s room and the room next door.

However, Bao Xu seemed to be much more stable this time and did not enter rashly. Qiao Liang waited in the cabinet for a while but Bao Xu was not a little bored.

Chen Kangtuo asked in the earphones. “How is it, Old Qiao? Has Brother Bao gone?”

Qiao Liang was a little helpless. “Not yet, but it should be soon.”

“Speaking of which, the project is really wealthy. There are two props in such a small bed.”

Chen Kangtuo was stunned. “What two props?”

Qiao Liang said, “There are just two… Sigh, Brother Bao is here. I’m not talking to you anymore. I have to look for the right time to scare him.”

Chen Kangtuo was even more confused now. He quickly asked, “Old Qiao, make it clear. What two props? There should only be one corpse on the bed. What else did you see?”

The moment he finished speaking, he heard three screams in his earphones!

The earphones then fell into chaos.

The first scream should have been automatically released by the system. As long as Qiao Liang pressed the button on the mechanism bed, the corpse would suddenly explode and scream.

This was a mechanical corpse. It would only pop up from the bed and return to its original position. It would not pose any threat.

The second scream was naturally from Bao Xu. When he was checking the room near the corpse on the bed, Qiao Liang suddenly pressed the switch, obviously scaring him.

However, the third scream was from Qiao Liang.

Chen Kangtuo was confused. He could not think of what was going on. He quickly ran upstairs.

In the end, he saw Qiao Liang in his ghostly costume and Bao Xu, whose face was pale. They were running crazily one after another. There was someone chasing behind them with a bright red axe!

Bao Xu ran in front. He held his left arm, which seemed to be bleeding. It looked very scary. Qiao Liang followed closely behind. He might be covering him, but he was obviously running in a panic.

Chen Kangtuo was so scared that he quickly took off his leather belt and asked, “What happened?”

Especially when he saw Bao Xu’s left arm that was covered in blood.

Bao Xu sounded shocked and angry. “You guys are too much. You’re actually serious!”

Qiao Liang quickly said, “Brother Bao, you’re mistaken! I don’t know where this person came from. We don’t know him at all.”

The moment he finished speaking, the figure behind him raised his axe and hacked down.

Fortunately, Qiao Liang and Bao Xu had trained in Suffering Travels. They dodged and this axe hacked directly on the table beside them, making a sound and cutting a gap.

Chen Kangtuo panicked. Why was there a criminal in Thriller Hostel?

“Run!”

Chen Kangtuo grabbed a chair from the side and resisted briefly. Then, the three of them ran away.

It might be three against one but Bao Xu was already injured and had no combat effectiveness. On the other hand, Chen Kangtuo and Qiao Liang were wearing heavy leather gloves. It was inconvenient for them to move. Their defense had been improved slightly but it was not difficult.

What’s more, he had no idea who this person was. All he could see was his messy hair and a scar on his face. He looked like an extremely evil person who would kill without batting an eyelid.

He had to make the best use of his time and run first. He would think about it after finding the other person-in-charge. ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺

Chen Kangtuo shouted in the channel as he ran. “Quick, quick, quick! Something went wrong. Whoever is closest to the exit, call the police with your cell phone!”

According to the normal process, Chen Kangtuo should have been monitoring the situation in the center console at any time. However, he had played in high spirits and gone down personally. Thus, no one was at the center console.

What’s more, all the people in charge had to wear leather gloves. They could not bring their cell phones with them. Thus, they placed them near the entrance of the backstage.

The channel was in a mess. Obviously, the other people in charge were a little confused after hearing this mess. They did not know what had happened.

“What’s going on with Old Chen? Is this part of the script?”

“What is going on? Why are you calling the police? There’s no police in our script.”

“Guo Licheng should be the closest to the cell phone. He’s already reaching for it.”

“Old Chen, where are you? I’ll look for you.”

The people in charge who had been lurking nearby could not sit still anymore. They left one after another.

Chen Kangtuo and Qiao Liang brought Bao Xu along. They relied on their familiarity with this area to temporarily shake off the pervert with the axe.

However, before he could get far, he heard Guo Licheng’s shocked voice coming from the earphones. “The cell phones that were placed here are all gone!”

The people in charge in the channel were shocked.

“The cell phone is missing?”

“Who did it!”

“In other words, someone came here not long after we entered and took away our cell phones?”

“That’s not right. Our venue should be in a closed state. We don’t accept tourists outside.”

“However, if there are people with ulterior motives who want to enter, they can still enter. Could some wanted criminals have escaped from Jingzhou Prison recently?”

Chen Kangtuo was completely flustered as well. This was supposed to be an internal test of the haunted house. He could not turn it into a crime scene.

The scenes from many horror movies flashed through his mind: They were originally filming a horror movie, but the fake scene became real. Many people lost their vigilance because they were filming, but the murderer killed them one by one.

At that thought, Chen Kangtuo quickly said, “Don’t worry, everyone. We have more people. Quick, gather at the entrance and leave. Get someone to call the police.”

The two of them supported the injured Bao Xu and walked out. Many ghosts and monsters hidden in other places appeared and gathered together.

Everyone took off their leather covers, their expressions serious and on high alert.

However, just as they walked to the entrance, they suddenly realized that the criminal had appeared out of nowhere and blocked the entrance.

The criminal was still holding the axe in his hand. There seemed to be blood on it.

At the same time, Bao Xu seemed to have lost a lot of blood and fell into a daze.

Qiao Liang might have torn a piece of torn cloth and briefly dressed it for him previously but it did not seem to be of much use.

The people in charge looked at the entrance that was blocked by the criminals. They looked afraid but determined.

Guo Licheng took the lead. He dismantled a dumbbell rod from the gym equipment and said, “Don’t be afraid, everyone. We have more people. Let’s go together!”

“How dare you cause trouble during the cohesion of the person-in-charge of Tengda? Let him see the results of us dragging the coffin gym.”

There were other exits as well, but Bao Xu looked like he could not take it anymore. The people in charge instantly felt a common enemy and took a step forward together. “Alright, we have more people. Kill him!”

The atmosphere in the venue was very solemn. A bloody battle seemed to be about to begin.

Many people’s hearts were racing. This criminal looked ferocious. Could he have wiped out the people in charge of Tengda’s competition alone?

That would be too funny.

All of these people were influential figures outside. They were each in charge of a key industry in Tengda. In the end, they were wiped out because of a criminal. If news of this spread, it would seem to be more tragic and comical.

Both sides were in a deadlock for a while. Guo Licheng shouted and was about to be the first to charge forward.

At that moment, the criminal laughed uncontrollably.

Bao Xu, who looked like he was about to faint, shrugged off his shoulders. Qiao Liang, who was prepared to fight, roared with laughter.

The criminal took off the fake hair on his head and tore off a fake skin used for makeup.

Everyone took a closer look. Wasn’t that Ruan Guangjian?
