Chapter 133 Let’s go to the haunted house!

This area is supposed to be a parent-child interaction zone, but there were no children among this group of people; they were all adults.

While she was still observing, the crowd that was originally dozens of meters away from her suddenly appeared nearby, and she was surrounded by the crowd.

The Ghost Vine in her pocket sensed something was wrong and quickly crawled out of the pocket, hiding in her collar.

"Shall we go to the haunted house now? What do you think? I heard it’s newly opened and looks really fun."

"A haunted house? Aren’t you afraid of ghosts? You still want to go to a haunted house?"

"But it looks really fun! I heard there are even ghosts inside you can interact with. How about we go in and check it out?"

"Is it really that fun? I want to go!"

"Take one with you! Take one with you too!"

"Let’s go together then. I heard this haunted house is immersive, and if you go in too late, you can even rest inside."

"Wow, that’s amazing!"

"That’s not all. This newly opened haunted house also allows you to choose the theme of the haunted house yourself."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go!"

The surrounding tourists were excitedly discussing it, their voices filled with anticipation for the haunted house.

Lin Yun stood still. Although the tourists around her seemed to surround her, they did not touch her and remained standing still.

She wasn’t sure what the group of tourists wanted to do, but she had a feeling that if she moved now, the group of tourists would definitely start moving too.

She was now inexplicably surrounded, and once they started moving, they would definitely push her forward as well.

Seeing that they had finished their discussion, Lin Yun was about to ask them to move aside when the surrounding tourists suddenly looked at her.

They stared intently at Lin Yun, when one of the female tourists suddenly spoke up: "You’re coming to the haunted house with us too, right?"

"You’ll be coming to the haunted house with us, right?"

Another male tourist also spoke up.

"Come with us to the haunted house."

"You haven’t moved, you must want to go to the haunted house with us."

"Let’s go to the haunted house."

"Come with us to the haunted house."

"Come with us to the haunted house."

The tourists surrounding her started urging Lin Yun to go to the haunted house again.

"Excuse me, I made plans to ride the pirate ship with my friend, and I have to go there to wait for him."

Lin Yun smiled politely, declining their offer again, and pointed to the pirate ship not far ahead.

"Bring your companion along, let’s go to the haunted house together."

The female tourist who spoke first persisted, her eyes still fixed on Lin Yun.

It seemed as if they were forcing her to go to the haunted house with them.

Lin Yun’s eyes flashed again. What’s wrong with this person? Why does she insist on taking her to the haunted house?

"I’ll definitely do it next time. I made plans with my friends today, so I really don’t have time."

"My companion should be arriving soon. Could you please make way?"

The female tourist wanted to say something more, but the male tourist who had spoken up stopped her.

"That’s a real shame. The pirate ship was great today. I hope you and your companion had a good time. See you next time."

When the male tourist said this, he was actually unwilling, but he couldn’t force the other party to do so and could only watch helplessly as Lin Yun left again.

After they made way for her, Lin Yun went straight out.

When she got close to the pirate ship, she deliberately stopped in a conspicuous spot, pretending to be waiting for someone.

The group of tourists didn’t leave either; they just stared intently at Lin Yun, as if trying to see if she was really waiting for someone.

Lin Yun knew, of course, that the other party hadn’t left and was still watching her.

She could only sigh helplessly. "System! Dear System, can you do me a favor?"

[Could you please send a message to Song Xizheng for me?]

[Sent.]

The System understood Lin Yun’s meaning and quickly helped her send a message to Song Xizheng.

[Hey, dear host Lin Yun, please take care of me this time during the acquisition mission, considering how good I am to you.]

The System then quickly reminded Lin Yun.

"Sure, sure, we’ll talk about it when we get back to the shelter."

However, Song Xizheng also encountered some trouble.

He also encountered a group of tourists who wanted to go to the haunted house, but Song Xizheng and Lin Yun had the same idea and made an excuse to go do something else with their companions.

When he emerged from the crowd, he already noticed that someone was following him.

However, upon seeing Lin Yun standing by the pirate ship, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Sister Lin! His dear Sister Lin really saved his life at this critical moment!

"You scared me to death, sis. I almost couldn’t find you."

Song Xizheng ran over and grabbed Lin Yun.

Lin Yun’s gaze swept past him and landed on the person staring at him not far behind. He instantly realized that Song Xizheng had also been targeted by tourists.

"Still want to ride the pirate ship?" Lin Yun winked at him again.

Song Xizheng subconsciously glanced up at the pirate ship, swallowed hard, and said, "No way? This looks a bit scary. Can we play something else?"

"You said you wanted to play this before, but now you don’t. So what do you want to play?"

Lin Yun’s tone sounded somewhat impatient.

Song Xizheng scratched his head. "How about we go play on that?" He pointed to the other amusement park ride.

Lin Yun looked over again, said nothing, and started walking in that direction.

The two groups of tourists who had been watching them left reluctantly after they actually saw the two meet up.

Song Xizheng quickly followed Lin Yun, asking, "Sister Lin, you too?"

"Hmm!" Lin Yun nodded again. "Some tourists want me to go to the haunted house."

Song Xizheng’s eyes widened. "Me too. I just made up a lie."

"Ah... I initially thought you had seen the message I sent you, but it’s not a big deal. We can just brush it off."

Song Xizheng scratched his head. He had heard the sound, but he didn’t know who sent it, and he didn’t have time to check.

"Let’s hurry back to the shelter while no one’s watching us anymore."

Lin Yun looked around again, and the tourists around her seemed to be acting quite normally.

"Okay, Sister Lin. Please be careful on your way."

Lin Yun agreed and headed towards the Mushroom House.

There were very few tourists left in the parent-child interaction area. Lin Yun observed her surroundings again, and taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, she slipped into the Mushroom House and returned to the shelter.

Once she arrived at a familiar place, Lin Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Getting back to the shelter from a crowded amusement park was quite a challenge.

She glanced at the time on her personal panel; it was almost nine o’clock. She had wasted a lot of time getting back.

Only then did she have time to sort out the events of the day.

Lin Yun carefully recalled everything that had happened since they entered the amusement park. The strange rides, the abnormal food, the staff in green and red vests, and the tourists who behaved differently all seemed connected in some way. Yet she still could not determine exactly what the amusement park wanted from them. Every time they thought they had understood one rule, another strange situation appeared and forced them to reconsider.

What bothered her most was that none of these things happened randomly. The tourists seemed to be guided toward certain activities, and the staff repeatedly tried to make them follow the same routine. Even refusing the food had caused such an obvious reaction. Although nothing had happened to them yet, Lin Yun did not dare assume that their current safety would last.

She silently decided that they had to remain especially careful tomorrow.

After all, they had learned that the safest choice was to observe first rather than act carelessly. Lin Yun wanted to understand the hidden rules before making another move.

If you don’t eat the food in the amusement park at mealtimes, those little green vests will surround you and try to dissuade you; if one doesn’t work, another will come.

Even if you manage to slip through, there will be people in red vests staring at you with hostile eyes, although they don’t seem threatening at the moment.
