My House of Horrors

Chapter 80: Dangerous Children

This branch mission was described as a first person, and it was about a man hiding in the fifth compartment of the toilet in order to catch the red shadow that always appeared at midnight.

What happened after that was not described in detail in the mission presentation, leaving enough room for Chan Song to imagine.

He turned off the flashlight and was somewhat confused: “The mission said that a red shadow would appear in the toilet at midnight, but listening to footsteps made it clear that two people were walking side by side. Did the red shadow make new friends in the years of school abandonment? ”

The sound of footsteps is slowly approaching the second floor toilet, according to the task, at this time, Chen Gong should hide in the fifth compartment of the toilet, but he feels that this is too passive, he really encounters something terrible, can't run if he wants to.

“Perhaps I should be more proactive. ”

Chen Guo held the tool hammer and ambushed behind the bathroom door. Whoever came in, he was ready to give the other hammer first.

After taking a breath, Chen Guo held his breath and lifted the tool hammer in his hand.

The footsteps became clearer and clearer, as if two people were running side by side, close to the bathroom on the second floor.

The waiting process is a torture for Chen Song. He has no idea what is out there, let alone what it is prepared to do. He can only make no sound while eavesdropping.

After about a few seconds, the footsteps finally stopped at the toilet door.

“Here they come! ”

Chen Gong's hand holding the tool hammer has begun to sweat and his heart beat gradually faster.

With the wind and rain outside the toilet, more and more raindrops are scratching into the house, dampening the floor.

“Where are the people?” Chen Song turned his head and looked behind him and above the door panel. There was no sudden appearance of such things as a human face. His patience was slowly abraded and he grabbed the door panel with one hand and was ready to go out and see for himself.

But before he walked out the back of the door, a lightning stroke brightened the night sky, and through the brief light, Chen Gong saw two shadows on the toilet floor.

“There's someone at the door! ”

His body was stiff and his flashlight had been turned off long ago, at a time when the toilet was dark and he could not see anything.

“The shadow is short, like two kids.” He dared not relax a bit and waited for a few more seconds before the door rang again.

However, unlike what he envisioned, the owner of the footsteps did not enter the toilet, but entered a side corridor, which seemed to have gone to the ground floor.

“Going now? ”

Chen Gong slowly moved his footsteps and looked at the toilet door, where there was nothing.

“Seems like two kids were standing at the door, which is a deviation from the red shadow described by the black phone task, because of the time lag, an unknown change, or because of my arrival on campus, which led to the early awakening of something strange? ”

Chen Gong couldn't think of an answer, and he didn't have the heart to explore these.

Turn on the flashlight and Chen Gong walks outside the fifth compartment of the toilet, whether this is the target of the black phone or not, he has to check it again.

Push the door panels, the old compartment still has nothing behind it.

“As things stand now, the compartment I'm looking for is supposed to be on the third floor in the toilet. Those two kids just went to the first floor, and this is a great opportunity.” Chen Guo hurried out, still not out of the toilet, the phone suddenly shook up and a strange phone called in.

“Whose number is this?” Chen Gong has very few friends, and the only few have basically never contacted him.

He hesitated, shrunk around the corner, quit the live broadcast, and answered the phone: "Hello, hello. ”

“You're a classmate of Gao Ruxue, right? Heard you met a child today with behavioral abnormalities, possibly mental illness?” The sound on the phone is mature and steady, giving people a trustworthy feeling.

“Well, who are you? ”

“I am her father and lecturer at Jiujiang Medical University. ”

He Shan told Chen Quo earlier that he gave his phone to Gao Ruxue, and now it seems that the “sister” with the cooling air field is quite reliable.

“Can you elaborate on the boy? Psychological illness is a poisonous grass that is rooted in the body and can destroy a person's future if it is not removed as soon as possible.” Gao Ruxue's father was well aware of the dangers of mental illness, which in his view was even more dangerous than certain physical illnesses.

“Here's the thing, having a seven- or eight-year-old kid who's in perfectly normal physical condition, but looks a little autistic, unwilling to communicate with people, afraid of the sun. ”

“Any other symptoms? It would be better to elaborate. ”

“I met this child at the door of the haunted house. His aunt told me that the child particularly enjoyed playing in the haunted house. He had no fear, fear or other emotions that normal people should have in the haunted house. Unlike in the sun, the whole person was active. He seemed to feel safe only in places where the sun could not shine.” Chen Gong's mind spoke out of doubt, and if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed in such a child.

“A seven- or eight-year-old who likes to go to haunted houses? And not scared? ”

“Yes, the kid was even curious about the ghost house actor who wore the makeup of the dead. ”

The microphone silenced for a few seconds: "If you just don't feel scared, it could be U-Wield's disease, which can lead to functional impairment of the amygdala part of his brain. ”

“I'm sorry, I didn't quite understand. ”

“Simply put, the amygdala is the nerve center established by the memory of fear, but it is also responsible for controlling the creation of feelings of fear, anger, etc. If there is a problem here, people will not feel scared, let alone enter the haunted house, even if they touch the high pressure line, the beast and the venomous snake. ”

Gao Ruxue's father made a good point, but Chen Gong felt that the disease was not quite the same as Fan Yu's: “Teacher Gao, the child is not afraid of anything, he is afraid of the sun and he hates walking in the sun. Besides, he's not just not afraid of haunted houses anymore, he loves the atmosphere of haunted houses, and he looks completely different inside and outside. ”

Chen Gong thought about it and added: “He didn't say a word outside the haunted house and didn't have any contact with anyone else at all. After entering the haunted house, he got excited. If he was forced to pull him out of the haunted house, he would attack people. I saw him rip out his aunt's arm with my own eyes. ”

“Listening to this description, it feels a little like the symptoms of bipolar disorder. Mania is full of destructive desires, irrationality, and even hurts the people closest to you; depression can be lonely, sad, refusing to communicate, and confined to your world.” Teacher Gao carefully analyzed Chen Song: “But one thing I don't understand is that patients with bipolar disorder have random seizures, and nothing changes when they enter a haunted house. Personally, I think since he had a personality change in the haunted house, his etiology should have something to do with the haunted house. When he was a kid, was he scared in the haunted house? Or his parents working in a haunted house? ”

After listening to Gao Ruxue's father, Chen Song had a guess.

The boy's personality changes and ghost houses are related, and the biggest difference between his ghost house and the outside world is that there are ghosts in his ghost house.
