Chapter 187: Haunted House
Many of the activities that followed were completed by Lauren alone because the otheres were willing to play with her on the merry-go-round or train.
Even Franklin, who had always doted on Lauren, could not bear to sit on the pink pony.
Therefore, Lauren could only play with these activities on her own.
“It’s so boring to play alone.”
Lauren got off the merry-go-round and couldn’t help but complain.
“You’re complaining when you’ve something to play while we can only watch you play.”
Quinn grumbled as he patted the mosquito on his hand.
“I know what we can play together!”
They looked in the direction Lauren’s chubby little finger was pointing at. The word “Haunted House” was written on it.
Looking at these two words, Quinn took a deep breath.
‘Hasn’t Lauren seen enough ghosts?’ Quinn thought.
‘Why does she want to go to a haunted house just to see a ghost when she is here at an amusement park?’
“I won’t go!” Quinn firmly rejected, he tightly held onto a pillar outside the haunted house, completely refusing to let go.
“Quinn, the ghosts are all fake!”
Lauren initially thought that after completing this mission with her, Quinn would become bolder. She did not expect that he would not even dare to go to a haunted house.
However, Quinn still refused to budge.
“No way! I’m not going!”
Therefore, Lauren began to negotiate.
“Quinn, if you accompany me, I can make you the spokesperson of Star Dream Amusement Park! When that time comes, your posters will be everywhere, and everyone will know how handsome you are.”
“What do you mean everyone will know how handsome I am? Everyone already knows I’m very handsome, okay?!”
Even though he said that, Quinn was tempted when he heard Lauren’s suggestion.
“Alright, it’s just some props, what’s there to be afraid of?”
He waved his hand casually, looking extremely proud and confident.
“Alright, let’s go in.”
Ben had seen the real ghosts, so he was definitely not afraid of these fake ghosts. As for Mr. Hayes, he had already lived for sixty to seventy years, so of course he did not believe in these things. He was a firm materialist.
Bryce, on the other hand, felt bored. He put his hands in his pockets and slowly followed behind the group.
“Hello, since you are our VIP users, we have specially selected the most exciting theme for you. Please put on your 3D glasses and enter in turn.”
“We need to wear 3D glasses? Your haunted house is quite high-end.”
Lauren fiddled with her 3D glasses and realized that they were not the right size for her.
Seeing this, Franklin said, “Why don’t you change your glasses with Bryce? His glasses are more suitable for you.”
They put on their 3D glasses and were led into an entrance by the shop assistant.
After entering, they saw a narrow corridor through the 3D glasses. There were many doors on both sides of the corridor, which actually looked a little similar to the basement floor of the Golden Star Agency.
These doors were all tightly shut. There were only very dim lights in the corridor, which was enough for them to see the way clearly.
Franklin held onto Lauren’s hand as they walked in front. Behind them was Quinn, who had been holding onto Bryce the whole time. At the end of the group were Ben and Mr. Hayes.
The moment Lauren entered the haunted house, she could hear Quinn starting to wail and scream.
Franklin was disgusted. “Quinn, if you continue to scream like that, even the ghosts will be scared away by you.”
The sound effects of the haunted house were terrifying. It was eerie. If one listened carefully, they could hear the cries of children and the voices of people talking.
They walked side by side. There were things around the corridor, and they would sometimes step on something.
“Quinn, I advise you not to look at the floor.”
The more Lauren said this, the more curious Quinn became.
He glanced at the ground.
“Ah…what the hell is that?!”
It was soft and elastic!
“It’s just a finger.”
Bryce spoke indifferently and pulled away the hand that was wrapped around Quinn’s neck.
He almost suffocated.
“Quinn, you’re so timid. Looks like I didn’t find the right way to scare you in the past.”
“I’m not a coward, it’s just that both of you are too bold!”
They continued to walk forward.
However, there was nothing else at the end of the corridor, but a door.
“Lauren! Don’t open that door!”
Suddenly, Lauren regretted bringing Quinn in.
“Why not? How are we supposed to go if we don’t open it?”
“We…we’re going back!”
Quinn’s voice was trembling all the time. Lauren let out a “tsk” and placed her small hand on the door handle.
Franklin did not help. After all, it was Lauren who wanted to play. He should just let her enjoy it. After all, she was not afraid of it.
These fake ghosts were less threatening to her.
