Thriller Zone: From the Mental Hospital to the Ghostly World

Chapter 331 [Domain: Blind Men and an Elephant] Peeping, Ghosts?

"Can you hear me?"

"I am Fei'er."

“Kui Gu, Dong Xiaohu, you should have heard Chen Ji’s recording. The domain has entered the second phase and has been divided into three teams.”

"After you left..."

“Tell me your mission.”

Kui Gu held the tape recorder, lost in thought.

He didn't hear Chen Ji's words at all, but Fei'er and the other two trapped at the original point in time could hear them; either the recorder was transmitting in one direction, or the original point in time was a "relay station".

He tried to relay his message and quickly received a reply, confirming Wei Gu's conjecture.

Fei'er and the others' tape recorders had two buttons: red for Chen Ji and green for themselves, but his only one had a yellow button.

So that means:

Red Light Chen Ji (Night of the Serial Killer) <-> Huang Guang Fei Er (Original Time Point) <-> Green Light Himself and Dong Xiao Hu (Night of Little E's Check-in)

"I probably understand."

Wei Gu looked at Dong Xiaohu: "Our task here is to restore it. To restore Dong's body, we need to recognize its parts, which means we need the assistance of Fei'er and the other two."

"I can't get through to Chen Ji; he's probably assisting Fei'er and the others."

There are still many mysteries surrounding Chen Ji's guidance, but Wei Gu is considering something else for the time being.

"It's 8:30 now." Wei Gu glanced at his watch.

"The guests should arrive in half an hour. Since I'm to restore Dong, Dong can only appear after 9:30. So Little E died after that."

Furthermore, Phil told him that Little D's body parts were pieced together, which gave Wei Gu a new idea.

“Dong has a physical form, and its height is unusual.” Wei Gu looked at Dong Xiaohu: “Then its body is very likely to have been pieced together.”

"We need to find the body parts first. Do you have any leads?"

Dong Xiaohu paused for two seconds before recalling hesitantly, "It seems that Liu Song smelled the stench of a corpse in the audio-visual room... but I didn't smell it."

"Then let's go check out the audio-visual room first."

Kui Gu made a decisive statement, and the two of them immediately headed to the audio-visual room.

There was nothing unusual in the audio-visual room.

Like Dong Xiaohu, Wei Gu didn't smell the stench of a corpse either, but he still gained something.

After the carpet near the door was lifted, a dark stain was found on the gray floor, which had been dry for an unknown amount of time.

"This is where Little A's blood is flowing."

Wei Gu glanced at Dong Xiaohu and saw that the other party looked confused, clearly not yet having figured out the current chaotic timeline.

"You can tell from how dry the blood is that a long time has passed since the night A was killed."

Kui Gu let out a deep breath.

Now only he and Dong Xiaohu are left here, supporting each other. He needs to explain the current situation to the other party.

"It can't be said that the domain tricked us, after all, the clues were all there, and we were just prejudiced."

"Although their names are both letters, these two groups of people did not actually enter the guesthouse at the same time."

"According to the information provided by Chen Ji, there are indeed five people in Xiao A's group: Xiao A, Da B, Xiao B, Xiao C, and Xiao D. They came to the guesthouse for a vacation after graduating from high school, so it should be between June and August."

Kui Gu rarely explained things to others with such patience.

He pointed to the computer again: "Then, after a while, the couple, Little E and her husband, booked and checked into the guesthouse here during the National Day holiday in October."

"They didn't even know each other."

"What happened in the meantime is something Chen Ji should investigate; we don't need to worry about it for now."

"Then our previous speculation may be true, that is, there may not have been ghosts on the night Xiao A died. Instead, their deaths may have led to the appearance of other ghosts later. This is the cause-and-effect relationship."

Do you understand?

Dong Xiaohu nodded, then suddenly said out of the blue, "Are you even human?"

“…What?” Wei Gu was stunned.

"You actually managed to piece together such a few clues." Dong Xiaohu said with admiration.

Wei Gu didn't speak and didn't react to Dong Xiaohu's praise; he just smiled coldly.

He didn't seem to like what Dong Xiaohu said.

Without saying much, the two broke the sofa open again. There was nothing inside the leather sofa, but they did see the bloodstains that Liu Song had mentioned.

"Let's go look around elsewhere."

After informing Fei'er about this, Wei Gu said.

.....

Chen Ji hid behind the speakers.

The scene of Little B's death flashed through his mind again.

Little B's body lay there on the corridor floor.

There was no one around.

Her expression was one of extreme terror, and a fruit knife was stuck in her chest—the very same one Chen Ji had tried to take earlier!

Half of his head was smashed.

Everyone was stunned. In the eyes of these NPCs, everything was fine until suddenly their companion's body was found in the corridor, and the murderer was nowhere to be found. It was like a horror movie!

Chen Ji was powerless to stop it from happening.

The moment he thought about bringing up the killer, he was automatically silenced and unable to do anything to fight back, because this was not his own body!

Even though Chen Ji knew the killer would appear, he still couldn't help but tremble with fear after entering Xiao C's body; this was the original owner's will.

"Can we only experience it, and not change it...? Why did it have to be Little C?"

What unusual thing did Little C see?

Chen Ji pondered.

"what!!!"

Suddenly, a scream of extreme pain came from upstairs!

Little A was caught.

The serial killer is like a ghost, lurking in some corner of the guesthouse, playing a cat-and-mouse game with these NPCs.

Then the serial killer should come to the audiovisual room....

Chen Ji pondered that the reason he hid in the audio-visual room despite knowing this was to see the killer's exact appearance.

Chen Ji quietly took out a recorder to inform the other entrants that the serial killer had begun his massacre.

"Bang!"

But at that moment, Little D sneaked in and hid behind the sofa, trembling.

To no avail, Chen Ji could only wait for it all to end.

Half a minute later.

Little A's screaming stopped.

The entire audio-visual room suddenly fell silent within a second, with only Little D's suppressed sobs remaining.

Amidst this barely audible sobbing... Chen Ji suddenly froze.

He looked up in confusion at the giant speaker in front of him.

Did he hear it wrong?

No, impossible.

Others might think it was just their imagination.

But Chen was absolutely certain of one thing...

"call."

"call."

It was less than ten centimeters in front of me.

From the speakers.

There's something...

very excited.

He was so excited that his breathing became heavy.

Sound...sound, this is the voyeur's perspective!

In that instant, Chen Ji was completely certain of his previous guess: the spying ghost had seen everything, and from beginning to end, it had been watching the NPCs being killed, even taking pleasure in it!

and many more.

Chen Ji realized that he seemed to have overlooked something.

The voyeur isn't a murderer; he's been hiding inside the furniture, so where did he come from?

And do ghosts make breathing sounds?
