Chapter 165
Many mattresses littered the dark corridor . They were bulging like they were hiding something underneath . Chen Ge used his hammer to yank one open . Inside the decayed mattress was a fake person made from pillows and bedsheets . The workmanship was rough, but one could just about make out the shape of a person .
The scariest thing was that a human face, complete with eyes, nose and a wide mouth, had been painted on the pillow . It looked like the scribbling of a child, but it made the hairs on Chen Ge's arms rise .
"This shouldn't be . " Chen Ge resisted the urge to smash it with the iron hammer and started to think . "No matter what, the twenty-four mannequins at the Haunted House are scarier and more real than these fake dolls . I felt zero fear being around those mannequins, but standing beside these dolls, I feel weirdly unsettled . "
He nudged the doll, and on the back of the pillow, an unfamiliar name was written—Lee Chunyan .
"Why is there a name?"
These dolls were not unlike those used by girls when playing house . They would use dolls to act as their parents or to represent someone they knew in real life .
Chen Ge observed for about two minutes after spraying the doll's face with a handful of salt . The doll did not react in any way . Chen Ge walked away to peel out another mattress . Similarly, there was a doll made from bedsheets and a pillow .
"Zhang Qisi?" There was another name behind the doll . Chen Ge looked at the corridor that was filled with mattresses, and a chill ran up his spine . "There's a name behind each doll? Meaning they represent real people?"
The bloated mattresses looked like a mass grave, and Chen Ge's hand that gripped the hammer sweated . He felt like he would be much braver after completing this Trial Mission . He finished two packs of salt after walking just twenty or thirty meters . Reality proved that salt had no use against those haunted things . The uncomfortable feeling that suffused the corridor did not decrease . If anything, it had gotten stronger .
"I'll need to ration the last pack of salt . I can't be so cavalier with it anymore . " Chen Ge would look over his shoulder every few steps . He was afraid of seeing a row of dolls following him as was often the case in the scary movies he had seen .
With his whole body tensed, Chen Ge made the decision that should a doll suddenly stand up, he would rush over and smash it into smithereens with the hammer and stab it with the cleaver .
"Calm down, there are many trump cards you haven't used yet . " Chen Ge did not know whether he was saying this for the benefit of the viewers or himself . In any case, as he moved into the Third Sick Hall, the popularity of his livestream also climbed at a scary speed . In contrast, Qin Guang's livestream had reached a bottleneck, and his viewership was slipping .
The Third Sick Hall was different from the other two because every room was a single room, but curiously enough, none of the rooms had any beds . It was like the place had never been used as a hospital before .
