Chapter 555 Cultural Festival (10)(2/3)
The two consciously walked to the end of the line and started queuing.
It was obviously just after noon, but there was a long queue in front of the classroom, and there were dedicated personnel in charge of organizing the queue.
Students and tourists who like excitement gather here, eager to try the taste and depth.
"Is this the haunted house built by Class D and Class E? It seems very interesting."
"It's true~ It is said that there are sound effects recorded by real people."
"I've heard about it too! And the last part of the experience is great. It's very suitable for couples to come together!"
"..."
People were discussing in a flurry, with excitement written on their faces.
Kato Yusuke glanced at Eri, who was standing next to him with her arms folded, her fingers on her arms tapping her arms frequently, and she was obviously nervous.
‘If you’re so scared, why come?’ He whispered in his heart, unable to figure out the reason.
But no matter what, since he had agreed to the other party, he had no intention of going back on it.
After waiting in line for twenty minutes, it was finally their turn.
The conductor guarding the door was wearing a black cloak and a Jason mask on his face, and he deliberately spoke in a strange voice.
"Jiejiejiejiejiejie ~ Please pay the entrance fee, 600 yen per person."
The sharp screams came from the classroom behind the black cloth, which was daunting.
Eirili tensed her nerves and swallowed a mouthful of saliva unconsciously. Then she stiffly prepared to get her wallet, but was stopped by Kato Yusuke.
"I'll do it," he said, taking out his wallet to pay and getting two glow sticks from the conductor.
"Jie Jie Jie ~ Two fresh lambs presented their sacrifice."
The conductor spoke solemnly, and raised his hand to lift the door curtain, revealing the dark entrance inside, his tone full of hints.
"Remember, if you are in danger, please shout for help, and someone will come to save you."
The rules of the game here are that two people work together, so they don’t have to wait to get a match.
"..."
Kato Yusuke looked at the conductor expressionlessly, wanting to ask him if he didn't feel ashamed. However, Eiriri seemed to like this and came towards him tremblingly.
Seeing this, he asked.
"How about it? If you regret it now, we can play something else?"
I don't know what kind of stimulation she received, but Ying Lili shook her head firmly, obviously not agreeing with this proposal.
…
Kato Yusuke simply took her into the classroom without further persuasion.
Rusty~
As the curtain was lowered behind them, all light was blocked from the outside.
Of course, what was in front of him was pitch black, with only the fluorescent stick in his hand emitting a faint light, illuminating the person's face in a blue light.
Kato Yusuke picked up the light stick and looked at it, and found that it probably wasn't there yet, so he called Eiriri and walked forward.
It wasn't until after turning the first corner that the scene changed.
In front of him was a narrow passage built with boards, barely wide enough for three girls to sit side by side.
The board was covered with a black plastic bag, and there were many unknown phrases and ghostly symbols stuck on it, such as "I hate it so much", "Give me back my life" and the like.
Just like when arranging admission, they were all specious psychological hints.
Looking up to the front, the dark passage was dimly lit, as if something was quietly lurking in the darkness.
Whenever a slightly cool wind blows in, the plastic bags on the board rustle, and the shadows of the two people are distorted.
Tick tock——,tick tock——.
The sound like water drops falling into a deep well came from the depths, and was mixed with the sound of the wind that sounded like mourning, making people shudder.
Kato Yusuke turned his head and looked to his side.
At this time, Yinglili was looking around anxiously, her snow-white face was faintly blue, and she was clutching her chest with one hand, and holding the hem of his coat with the other hand.
"Eiri Riri?"
"ah!"
He just asked casually, but the other party's body jumped suddenly, and then his eyes opened angrily.
"What, what are you doing...why are you talking suddenly!?"
"No...I just want to say, if you are ready, let's go forward."
"Well, you don't need to say that kind of thing, let's go quickly!" Ying Lili said this, but her feet did not move.
Kato Yusuke looked at her ugly face and asked: "...Anyway, do you want to hold hands?"
"Ha, ha...? Holding, holding hands? Why would I do that? Could it be...are you scared?"
"...Well, let's just take it as that, so let's hold hands."
Ying Lili looked at his outstretched hand, hesitated for a few seconds, and then put her hand up cautiously.
"Man, I'm not hurting you. Are you afraid? I just saw you shaking, so I helped you... Don't, don't misunderstand me!"
The parties involved acted as if they had no choice but to do so.
'...So why do you want to make yourself suffer?'
Kato Yusuke couldn't help but sighed heavily: "Ah, I understand, let's go."
After saying that, he led her forward, and this time the other party was very cooperative.
Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap.
The sound of heavy and light footsteps echoed quietly, exploring the depths cautiously.
As if to dispel the fear of the dark, Eirili raised her voice and spoke.
"Ahem, hum! Well, it shows that you are a boy, but you are actually afraid of...that kind of thing. Don't you feel embarrassed?"
…
"Well - if you want to say it, I think everyone has their own things that they are afraid of, right? There is nothing to be ashamed of."
"But, but... Ghosts are just like Santa Claus. Even elementary school students don't believe in them...!"
"Everyone is different, and there is no need to compare with others."
"...Then, besides ghosts, what else are you afraid of?"
"In my opinion...it's probably because I'm afraid of losing someone important to me."
"...Losing someone important?"
"Well, this is the only thing I can't accept."
"What would you do if you lost it?"
"Well, it's hard to answer this question."
"What does that mean...!"
"After all, people will change due to various opportunities. Now I can only answer you in one sentence."
Kato Yusuke turned around and said softly: "I will never lose anyone easily again."
Ying Lili couldn't help but be stunned, she just felt that there seemed to be something hidden in these words, and she hurriedly wanted to ask.
But at this moment, something suddenly fell from the sky and fell to the ground with a "snap".
She looked down subconsciously.
Through the faint blue light of the fluorescent stick, what came into view was a broken forearm, with cold white bones visible between the flesh and blood.
The moment she saw the thing clearly, her pupils suddenly dilated and contracted, and her scalp felt numb.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!”
The person involved screamed without any image: "Come out, come out, come out, come out——!!!"
The shrill screams echoed.
Slowly, the boy's voice rang in his ears.
"This is just a prop, Yinglili."
There is a strange calming power in the voice, full of calmness.
But even so, Yinglili still didn't dare to look, she just closed her eyes tightly, "You, take it away quickly——!!"
Kato Yusuke picked up the amputated limb and found that it was made of silicone material. It looked realistic at first glance in the dark.
He put the small prop aside casually, and then said: "Okay, it's done."
To be continued...
