After completing the bizarre game, the world experienced a global resurgence of strange occurrences.

Seeing everyone looking at her at the same time, the female office worker suddenly felt a little flustered.

She was extremely anxious at that moment, because according to the usual tropes of horror movies, once she was separated from the others, she would definitely die!

She was worried that because of what had just happened, no one would be willing to accompany her to the restroom.

Just as the female office worker had expected, after she spoke, everyone present looked at each other, seemingly waiting for someone else to speak first.

The female office worker's eyes welled up with tears upon seeing this scene.

Shen Wan was very hesitant. Although the organization had repeatedly emphasized that when faced with a choice, the overall situation must be taken into account, she still felt reluctant when faced with the train problem.

"I'll go with you!"

The muscular man who had remained aloof from the beginning and had been doing push-ups on the ground suddenly stepped forward.

The muscular man got up, walked to his side, and gestured that the other person could leave.

The female office worker thanked them repeatedly, but when she looked at Chen Zhuo and the others, a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes.

"Why don't we go together? If something really happens, we can look out for each other."

The old lady eventually softened and got up to follow the two.

The muscular man immediately waved his hand in refusal: "If we really encounter something dirty, no matter how many people there are, it's just sending us to our deaths."

Besides, the corridor can't hold that many people; by then, it won't be enough time to escape.

"Strange, they were so arrogant just a few days ago, why are they suddenly being so kind today?"

The high school boy seemed to have thought of something, and looked at the muscular man with a hint of disgust.

"What kind of time is this to still be thinking with your lower body? You're all brawn and no brains!"

The high school boy's voice was very soft, and even Zhuo Fan, who was closest to him, couldn't hear it very clearly.

But Chen Zhuo, with his amazing hearing, heard every single word.

Seeing that the two muscular men were about to leave, Chen Zhuo reached for his pocket watch at his waist and tapped it twice with his fingers.

Upon seeing this, the mirror ghost hidden in the pocket watch understood his intention. It immediately left the pocket watch and followed the two muscular men through the mirrors in the villa.

"Dude, that muscular guy's stamina is amazing. He did push-ups for so long and didn't break a sweat. If I had that...!"

Zhuo Fan leaned close to Chen Zhuo and whispered something in his ear.

Chen Zhuo frowned slightly, wanting to create some distance, but Zhuo Fan pressed closer.

Feeling quite helpless, he managed to escape by talking to Shen Wan.

"Miss Shen, I'd like to understand what exactly this so-called 'Sealing the General's Gate' is all about, and how it relates to resolving the strange occurrences?"

"First, you need to know that a door is a passageway for the supernatural to descend into reality, and at any given time, only one supernatural being can pass through a door."

Once a supernatural entity dies or is sealed, the door becomes vacant, allowing other supernatural entities to reappear in the real world through it.

Faced with Chen Zhuo's question, Shen Wan felt very gratified; she hadn't seen such an ambitious person in a long time.

So she pulled Chen Zhuo aside and explained it to him in detail.

"That's why our solution to dealing with the supernatural doesn't include sealing it off."

Because once the sealed monsters are freed, it means that there will be two monsters in one door. Over time, the number of monsters will increase, making them even more difficult to deal with.

So the organization began researching the door and eventually discovered that sealing the door would put the corresponding anomaly into a deep sleep!

"Then why not just destroy the door completely? Wouldn't that eliminate the problem forever?"

Chen Zhuo recalled the door he had smashed with his own hands in the spider's nest.

Just then, he heard Shen Wan sigh.

"We also want to solve the problem at its source, but unfortunately, this method simply doesn't work."

During the organization's research, various methods were used to destroy the door; however, no matter which method was used, it was ultimately impossible to effectively damage the door.

Even someone with supernatural powers, capable of opening a door, couldn't do that.

"The person who pushed open the door?"

Chen Zhuoyue became interested in this closed-door organization.

"ah--!!!"

A scream startled everyone present, and they all stood up and looked around.

Startled, Zhuo Fan jumped up and quickly hid between Chen Zhuo and Shen Wan.

"W-What was that sound?!"

"It sounds like...that scream." The high school boy's voice trembled, but even in fear, he shielded the old man behind him.

Shen Wan's expression changed drastically, and she immediately looked towards the second-floor restroom: "Something's happened! Everyone, move closer to me immediately, and don't go near the restroom!"

"Should we go and see? We need to know what happened before we can figure out what to do next."

Perhaps due to their advanced age and rich life experiences, the elderly person's emotions were not greatly affected, and they were able to analyze the situation relatively calmly.

Shen Wan shook her head, rejecting the suggestion.

She understood what the old man meant; as the saying goes, the unknown is far more terrifying than the known.

Given the current situation, maintaining the status quo is the most appropriate course of action.

Just as she hesitated, two figures appeared side by side at the end of the bathroom corridor, slowly approaching the group.

"Here it comes! Bro, is it weird?" Zhuo Fan asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear, hiding behind Chen Zhuo the whole time.

Chen Zhuo did not answer. He raised his hand to cover his nose and frowned slightly.

The crayon smell seems to have gotten a bit stronger!

Seeing the two figures gradually approaching, Shen Wan led everyone to slowly retreat until there was nowhere left to go.

"Everyone stay behind me. If they make a move, I'll immediately intervene. You all take this opportunity to leave and find a secluded place to hide!"

Shen Wan's tone was resolute, as if she was prepared to make a sacrifice. She turned her head to look at Chen Zhuo.

"Take this. If you can get out, use it to contact the branch operator and tell the organization everything that's happening here!"

In her opinion, among their group, besides herself, the one with the best chance of leaving was the person beside her who had never shown any fear from beginning to end.

Regardless of whether Chen Zhuo agreed or not, Shen Wan forcefully shoved the walkie-talkie from her chest into his arms.

Immediately afterwards, they took the strange weapon and prepared to rush towards the two figures who had already arrived at the banquet hall and whose true forms were vaguely visible.

"Huh?" Zhuo Fan's slightly surprised voice interrupted Shen Wan's movement: "It looks like those two who went to the restroom."

Everyone looked closely and, sure enough, it was the two people who went to the restroom.

The female office worker limped over and, with the help of the muscular man, walked to the chair in front of everyone and sat down.

"What's wrong with you all? Why are you looking at us like that?"

"What just happened? And what was that scream?" Shen Wan didn't make any rash moves and continued to keep her distance from the two of them.

The female office worker wanted to explain, but seemed too scared and stammered, unable to articulate her thoughts clearly.

"Eyes! I see...so many eyes! They...have found me! I'm dead!"
