Chapter 48.2
“Qiuqiu, what should we do?”
See Tang Mianmian come closer, Xiao Tangqiu subconsciously took a step back. He looked up, his face filled with vigilance. Was this Tang Mianmian the real Tang Mianmian?
Tang Mianmian looked silly. “...What’s the matter?”
Xiao Tangqiu stared straight at Tang Mianmian, trying to figure out if the person before him was real or not. At this time however, the sound of hurried footsteps came from behind him!
Footsteps?!
Xiao Tangqiu immediately became alert. Right now, he was facing Tang Mianmian and didn’t dare expose his back to the suspicious “thing” before him. But the footsteps behind him that sounded clearer and clearer were more suspicious. Just when his heart was still tangled over what to do, Tang Mianmian showed an extremely frightened expression in the direction of the footsteps.
Tang Mianmian’s expression made him turn around slightly and glance at the stranger out of the corner of his eye.
When seeing the face of that person, Xiao Tangqiu couldn’t help but jump in shock. It was the boy who came in with them!
He was still alive?
He made it out of that corner?
Soon, he realized a more incredible thing. The seven of them had survived the haunted house completely intact!
“Why did you leave so quickly? Why didn’t you wait for me?!”
The boy came running breathlessly. When he saw Xiao Tangqiu, he asked hesitantly, “Why did you leave me alone just now?”
“Stop! Don’t come over!” Tang Mianmian had his guard up.
The boy grew anxious at once, “Do you doubt me? I really am a person... “
Xiao Tangqiu suddenly realized something was wrong. “Wait! You just said... You were alone?”
The point of disagreement between him and Tang Mianmian was obviously after they had met the boy. After that, their experiences were very different, but before that, it was the same. But now the boy told him that he had only seen one person at the time?
What was real? What was fake?
Or was everything fake?
The boy looked puzzled, “That’s right! When you saw me earlier, didn’t you ask me if I had a girlfriend? After you heard me say that I don’t have one, you turned around and ran away! But I really don’t have a girlfriend ah.”
Xiao Tangqiu frowned, this was indeed the question that he asked, but at the time, one of the “Tang Mianmians” was beside him!
What the hell was going on here?!
Right then, a strange figure suddenly appeared!
Just as the boy approached them, there came an extremely harsh sound in the darkness behind the boy. Listening carefully, it seemed to be the sound of an axe sweeping the ground!
He turned and wanted to run, but the skeleton was extremely fast. Almost instantly, it came up behind him, raising its axe.
With that, the boy’s head and body was separated!
The moment his blood spattered, a person’s head rolled towards Xiao Tangqiu’s feet, the eyes looking up at Xiao Tangqiu. Because of fear and pain, his facial features had been completely distorted. He gaped at Xiao Tangqiu with his eyes open and his mouth twitching as he spit out his last word, “Save...”
He had yet to utter his last words before he died unwillingly.
Tang Mianmian screamed at once, and at the same time, the skeleton raised its red axe and came at them. He immediately grabbed Xiao Tangqiu without hesitation and ran towards the exit.
If Xiao Tangqiu still suspected that this Tang Mianmian was a fake, this moment completely dispelled his doubts. No one but Tang Mianmian would remember to grab him to safety even in the critical juncture of life and death!
The two men ran towards the exit of the haunted house without hesitation while the four people who had been blocking the exit rushed at the boy’s head that had fallen to the ground.
Xiao Tangqiu didn’t even have time to glance out of the corner of his eye to see what the four men did. At this moment, his attention was completely focused on the nearby exit. He tried his best to run towards it. Just before the red axe touched his neck, he fell to the floor and rolled out of the exit.
“We’re out!”
“We’ve finally made it out!”
Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian had both escaped from the haunted house by crawling and tumbling out. Finally, they could breathe the fresh air outside after such a difficult struggle. They excitedly hugged each other, sighing emotionally at surviving this calamity.
They actually made it out! They made it out alive!
“You’ve finally come out of there!”
The remaining seven people who had been waiting outside for a long time cried at the same time, but soon someone noticed something wrong. “How come there’s only the two of you? Where are the others?”
Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian looked at each other with a bitter smile and said nothing. The others immediately turned pale and knew that those people might have met with danger.
As expected, Xiao Tangqiu sighed, “Only the two of us are left.”
“That’s impossible!”
“How is that possible? How is that possible? I don’t believe it... “
Although they knew that this amusement park was extremely dangerous, they couldn’t accept that the people who were alive not long ago were gone in a flash. It was even more unacceptable to think that it might be their turn next.
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted in surprise. “There’s someone else! I knew it! Someone else made it out alive!”
Was there someone else? How was that possible?
Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian looked at each other at once. They both turned around and looked in the direction of the exit of the haunted house. Sure enough, a figure slowly emerged.
“Someone else made it out! That’s great!”
“What the hell! Are you deliberately playing a prank to frighten us? How hateful!”
As the figure gradually became clearer, Xiao Tangqiu stared incredulously.
It was that boy.
The boy whose head had been cut off by the axe.
The boy slowly walked from the exit of the haunted house towards them with a blank face.
Xiao Tangqiu instantly grew alert. He quickly looked at Tang Mianmian as a trace of fear flashed through their eyes. Such a thing was simply unheard of!
What sorcery was this?! Their dead teammate was alive!
Was this possible? Or had he been possessed? Ghosts could actually control a dead player’s body!
But in theory, when the game ended, everything should’ve come to an end.
Or...
Perhaps they hadn’t left the haunted house yet?
Were they still trapped in the illusion of the haunted house?
As Xiao Tangqiu puzzled over the matter, the boy who had his head cut off slowly walked towards them. He subconsciously took a step back, Tang Mianmian following him as well. Aside from the two of them, the expressions of the other players were also strange. After all, anyone with a normal IQ could see that there was something wrong with this boy.
But besides their group of players, the few people from the other team were especially enthusiastic about the boy, not only the four people who stayed outside, but also the three who just came out of the haunted house.
As if they were only passers-by.
Suddenly, the boy seemed to blend into the other group of players. Xiao Tangqiu stared at the boy’s back and remembered the boy’s girlfriend. He quickly turned to look for the girl. But he looked around and found that she was gone.
Gone?
Xiao Tangqiu felt a chill in his heart as he felt uneasy all over. Tang Mianmian noticed the change in Xiao Tangqiu’s expression and immediately became nervous. “What’s the matter?”
“Gone...”
Xiao Tangqiu murmured, “That girl is gone...”
Tang Mianmian immediately responded, “That boy’s girlfriend? Yeah! Why is she missing?”
He quickly turned to ask the others, “Where’s that girl?”
The remaining three players looked at each other with blank faces. “Girl? What girl? There’s only one girl on our side!”
Tang Mianmian’s eyes widened in disbelief. “No! The three of us went in so there should be four people left outside!”
“Four people?” They looked confused. “Clearly only three of us stayed outside! And there’s only one girl!”
Tang Mianmian incredulously asked the only girl among the three of them, “Don’t you remember? There was another girl besides you!”
The girl shook her head timidly. “I’ve never met her...”
Tang Mianmian couldn’t help but look at Xiao Tangqiu. Xiao Tangqiu’s eyes sank as he nodded at him.
It seemed that the girl had really disappeared, and besides the two of them, no one else had discovered that.
As the two men looked at each other, the clown’s familiar, comical voice suddenly sounded again.
“Congratulations on your successful completion of the first game! Now please go to the next event – the rollercoaster of death!”
The clown’s voice sounded out from somewhere and spread to everyone’s ears. Xiao Tangqiu subconsciously turned to look for it. Just then, a toy wagon slowly entered his sight.
A puppet soldier sat on the pony wagon, the clown’s voice seemed to come from the puppet soldier’s mouth.
Hum, hum, hum-
The toy wagon slowly moved towards Xiao Tangqiu who immediately took a step back. At this moment, the puppet soldier suddenly pulled out a sword from its side. The cold light reflected off of the sword and in the next second, it drew its sword and killed itself.
The puppet soldier’s head fell to the ground instantly and rolled around, but sounds were still coming out of its mouth, “Welcome to the Death Playground... Welcome to the Death Playground...”
Perhaps because its head had fallen to the ground, it began to jam up.
“Death...”
“Death...”
This was exactly how the boy had died!
Xiao Tangqiu subconsciously clenched his fist. When he finally loosened it again, he found that his palms were sweating.
Moments later, the geek snickered, “Another trick!”
Others laughed as well, but it seemed as if they were forcing themselves.
“What did you see in the haunted house?” The girl timidly asked Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian.
If it were other old players, they might have asked to exchange information, but Xiao Tangqiu didn’t intend to hide anything and immediately told them what happened in the haunted house just now.
