So in a sense, he was returning to his old place.
Walking along the dark and narrow corridor, Watanabe leisurely looked at the surrounding environment.
The bloodstains were actually red-painted walls, the flickering lights were actually short-circuited lights, the eerie background music that gradually sounded, and the air conditioner that never stopped cooling at full blast, together created a cold and eerie atmosphere.
According to his experience, if nothing unexpected happens, the strange BGM will sound at the corner ahead, or there will be a "surprise".
"High-energy warning ahead."
Watanabe Yu reminded Ayana Amamiya who was beside him.
Most of the fear of haunted houses comes from the unknown. After all, when people are on tenterhooks, the slightest sound is enough to make people become frightened.
"..."
Amemiya Ayana didn't say anything, but just silently moved closer to Watanabe Yuu.
She was not afraid, she was just afraid that he would be frightened and run away, and they would be separated!
Boom, boom, boom.
The fact was just as Watanabe Yu had expected. When he approached the corner of the door, a strange BGM sounded.
At the same time, the blowers hidden under the curtains on both sides of the road began to blow.
The cold wind, the eerie background music, and the rustling curtains brought the tense atmosphere to its peak.
"Coming soon."
After calculating the distance, Watanabe Yu turned his head and reminded the Saint Lady again.
The footsteps sounded again, this time coming from the corner ahead.
Subconsciously, Amemiya Ayana hugged Watanabe Yu's arm like a koala.
At this moment, her heart seemed to stop beating.
The two walked around the corner.
The strange BGM stopped almost instantly.
Although the road ahead was still narrow and the lights were still flickering, it was not the situation that Watanabe Yu described.
"like……"
Amemiya Ayana breathed a sigh of relief, but before she could finish her words, the flickering lights in front of her suddenly dimmed, and the stopped BGM sounded again.
"It should be coming."
Watanabe Yu pursed his lips.
The next moment, the dimmed lights came on again.
At the end of the road, a strange figure came into the eyes of the two.
It was crawling slowly on the ground, and behind it was a long skirt stained with blood and legs stained with mud.
"!"
Amamiya Ayana's eyes widened and her body stiffened instantly.
Her mind told her that this was fake and that ghosts did not exist in the world, but her emotions told her to run!
Just when the Saint Lady was frightened silly, it raised its head.
The next moment, a terrifying face came into their eyes.
Its eyes were red and its skin was so white that it looked like it had been dead for two or three weeks.
"..."
Watanabe Yuu fell silent.
Strictly speaking, the staff has done their best, and the look is indeed OK, but unfortunately he is a person who has experienced horror movies before time travel.
Compared with Kayako's appearance, the other person's look is still a little bit inferior.
"Hahaha"
It opened its mouth wide, with grayish-white, sticky saliva stuck between its teeth.
"Yu!!!"
The Saint Lady could no longer hold back her emotions and screamed out loudly.
Over there, the staff who had worked so hard to play the goblins finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The girl was already screaming with fear, so all that was left was to scare the boy into screaming as well.
Then I can find ways to scare the boys away, so that I can break them up... uh, no, it's a test for the couple!
——It would be nice if we could really do that.
He sighed in his heart, lowered his head, and quickly got up.
His job was to drive the two tourists to the other side of the road.
From that side, they will go through the entire haunted house process.
He has received special training, and his speed of crawling on the ground is far beyond that of a normal person. In addition, his current strange clothing makes him look like he has the uncanny valley effect.
Next…
"The lights will dim next."
Watanabe Yu pursed his lips.
His voice was not loud, but it was so clear in the quiet room.
The staff's movements also slowed down.
No, how did he know?
Could it be a colleague?!
No, I guess I’m just a horror movie fan!
Thinking of this, he quickened his crawling movements.
The lights dimmed and the sound of creatures crawling on the ground began to play.
Logically speaking, the atmosphere should have become tense at this moment.
But the problem is...
The scheduled twenty seconds were up and the lights came on again.
The staff member stood up and looked at Watanabe Yu, whose pupils didn't even shrink, and inexplicably felt a sense of frustration.
This guy is not afraid at all.
It's not the kind of pretending to be fearless, but the real fearlessness.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
'that……'
After hesitating for a long time, he gave Watanabe Yu a subtle look, then raised his head, signaling the latter to go to the passage on the opposite side.
'OK'
Watanabe Yu also responded with his eyes.
It wasn't that he didn't want to move, nor that he didn't want to cooperate, it was just that the Saint Lady hugged him too tightly, so he couldn't take a step.
"It's okay, Ayana, it's gone."
Watanabe Yu raised his hand, gently patted Amamiya Ayana on the back, and whispered to comfort the latter whose shoulders were trembling from time to time.
The staff member glanced at Watanabe Yu, then turned around and left silently.
In short, his mission was over.
Although this hugging scene should only appear after completing the haunted house, it doesn’t matter.
"..."
Amemiya Ayana didn't say anything, but just raised her eyes silently and secretly glanced at the white figure leaving.
After confirming that the latter was slowly leaving, she visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go too!"
She uttered the words haltingly.
She had said before that she would protect him, but now it seemed that she had become the one being protected.
"Ah."
Watanabe Yu didn't laugh at her. Instead, he gently stroked her face with his other hand and calmed her down before he started walking.
The first time he went to a haunted house where the staff played ghosts, he was also scared.
Later I gradually adapted to it.
Perhaps the Saint Lady adapted quickly, or perhaps his reminder was timely, but until she walked out of the haunted house, her reaction was not as big as before.
"You, I said that the haunted house now is completely different from the previous one, do you believe it?"
Sitting on a bench outside the haunted house project, Amamiya Ayana calmed herself down while looking at the person coming out of the haunted house exit.
After seeing that their faces were also pale, her mood improved for no reason.
At least she wasn't the only one embarrassed.
"I believe."
Watanabe Yu nodded and said this with certainty.
The Saint Lady had looked so confident before that it didn’t seem like she was joking, and it was obvious that the latter must have been here once.
However, the situation was completely different between the last time she came and this time, which directly led to the fact that she was frightened even though she was "revisiting the old place".
According to his experience, a haunted house with real NPCs is two levels more terrifying than a fully automated haunted house.
After all, only humans know how to scare others.
"…I feel like you're secretly laughing at me in your heart."
Amemiya Ayana pursed her lips and looked at him aggrievedly.
She had clearly agreed to protect him, but in the end she didn't, so instead she was pretty scared.
If nothing unexpected happens, his image in his heart has already collapsed.
"You're overthinking it." Watanabe Yu shook his head. "Isn't it normal to be scared by scary things? Besides, it's normal for a girl like you to be scared. Do you understand what I mean?"
Of course, if this had happened before he traveled through time, he would have definitely added that he had no intention of disrespecting independent women, in order to avoid being punched hard.
"So, you didn't laugh at me?"
Amemiya Ayana raised her eyes and looked at Watanabe Yu with pity.
Those watery eyes suddenly came alive.
"No, I promise."
In order to reassure her, Watanabe Yu even said it twice in a firm tone.
"I even think you're cute, and I'm very happy. After all, I got to see different sides of you. In other words, I've made a profit."
If Amemiya Ayana was not afraid at all and still looked wrapped in that cold shell, he would feel a little disappointed.
Just like he always told her, when they were alone, they didn't need to be on guard against each other, let alone do anything unnecessary.
Whatever it feels like is what it feels like. There is no need to cover it up, and there is no need to deliberately hide it.
"Really?"
Ayana Amamiya looked at Watanabe Yuu with eager eyes. She was always smart, but now she was like a child.
"real."
Watanabe Yu answered again patiently.
"But I'm a little curious about the reason."
He changed the subject and mentioned something else.
