Chapter 91: Sadako's Debut
Technical Department.
Zombie Brother's attention was drawn to the desktop computer on the table.
The computer automatically plays videos from a folder.
The video shows that after the zombie entered the police station, a blurry human face followed him, but the zombie seemed to have never noticed it and let the face follow him.
The video playback is accelerating.
Ultimately, video time aligns with the real world.
The scene freezes on the last moment, where a horrifying, distorted human face is hidden in a crack in the ceiling.
The atmosphere of terror reached its peak.
If it were any ordinary person...
People can't help but look up at the gap, but the face isn't actually hidden in the gap; it's hidden behind the tourist's head. When the tourist looks up and can't see the face, they naturally feel a moment of security, thinking, "It's nothing special."
Then, if you turn your head unintentionally, you will see a terrifying face that has been waiting for you.
The emotions of fear rose and fell in perfect harmony.
Zombie Bro also looked up at the gap, but didn't see the face in the video, and then subconsciously turned his head to the side.
next second.
The ghost face, like the jump scares that horror games excel at, appeared next to his head, almost touching him, with the distance infinitely close to zero.
……
……
Zombie Brother remained silent.
He merely took a step back instinctively, without much surprise on his face, as if this level of surprise couldn't frighten him.
"This is a real ghost, not some fake created with virtual technology. Can't he tell the difference?"
"No, he figured it out."
"He has definitely seen real ghosts."
Zhang Ze witnessed everything backstage.
This is a haunted house segment he meticulously designed; it's impossible for it not to scare people. He has absolute confidence that the horror will gradually approach reality from the screen, building up layer by layer. Anyone who understands the logic of creating terror will be able to see the brilliance of Zhang Ze's design.
The only possibility that the zombie brother wasn't scared...
He has definitely seen real ghosts.
"These are no ordinary tourists, Kobayashi, it's your turn to make your move."
Zhang Ze immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.
Since the 2.5-star midnight police station is no good, all that's left is Zhang Ze's trump card.
The newly unlocked 3-star scene, Midnight Ring.
"Snapped!"
Zhang Ze snapped his fingers.
The next second, the scene in front of the zombie brother turned into a black, viscous liquid that quickly melted into the blood lake under his feet, and the entire scene disappeared as quickly as an ink wash painting.
This is a transition that Chen Ge's haunted house could never achieve.
Ordinary people would just think that the technology is really advanced now, and that VR virtual reality technology is so realistic.
Little did they know, Zhang Ze had directly altered the terrain.
The zombie brother appeared directly in front of Kobayashi's ancient well.
"Haunted house owner, give up, you can't scare me."
"If I were to rate it, that scene would only get a 6 out of 10 at best. It's just like that haunted house across the street. It doesn't even pass the minimum requirement, because the maximum score is 100."
"I've already told you, I'm Feng Bujue from Hanjiang City. Do you think this level of intimidation can scare me?"
"Zombie Brother said to the ancient well."
He probably thought Zhang Ze was hiding in the well.
As soon as he finished speaking, a rustling sound came from inside the well. Zombie Brother immediately curled his lip and said, "You're just trying to be mysterious. I saw through all your tricks."
"There's probably a toy doll at the bottom of this well, pretending to be a vengeful ghost, to scare me, or to make the same scary face as before when my attention is drawn to the bottom of the well. It's such an old trick."
"My brother is such a loser! He actually got scared by a haunted house like this. We're twins, for goodness' sake! He's such a disgrace!"
The zombie brother made a solemn vow.
He thought he had everything under control.
However, the well never responded to him. From beginning to end, there was only the sound of something gently rubbing and slowly crawling, stiff and strange.
The surface of the well was covered with moss, and cracks were visible everywhere on the stone bricks. At the very top, there was a huge stone that partially obscured the well opening.
"Hmph, putting up a stubborn resistance, huh?"
The zombie muttered to himself as he walked to the well.
He poked his head out and looked down into the well.
The bottom of the well was very dark, so dark that it was almost impossible to see what was on the stone wall.
However, the well water was very clear.
Despite the absence of any light source and the extreme darkness at the bottom of the well, the zombie could still see the shimmering surface of the water through the dim light.
"Um?"
Zombie Brother was stunned for a moment.
He saw two shadows reflected on the water.
One of them was himself, and strangely, his reflection in the water showed an extremely terrified expression, as if he had seen something utterly terrifying, urging him to run for his life.
The other shadow was a woman with disheveled hair, which covered the front half of her face, making it impossible to see what she looked like. However, she wore a bright red, blood-red dress, clearly indicating that she was a vengeful ghost dressed in red.
Zombie Brother froze instantly.
"You're not afraid of ordinary ghosts."
"But when you see red, you instinctively stiffen. This is a reaction of your body's nerves, and you can't fake it no matter how strong or calm you are."
"This shows that you know the meaning of wearing red."
The woman in red next to the zombie brother slowly spoke.
The zombie brother strained to look to the side, straining to see what was next to him, but he saw nothing at all, as if the woman in red was merely a reflection on the water's surface.
"But I wasn't afraid."
"You're right, I was surprised, but I wasn't scared. In the end, I won, unless you're willing to bear the infamy of beating up a tourist," Zombie Bro said.
He looked down into the well.
Then something happened that broke him down.
Besides the woman with disheveled hair who had appeared earlier, another woman appeared on his other side. However, this woman had both hands severed and an extremely long neck, making her look very disproportionate.
"You're not afraid, not because you're truly not afraid, but simply because of the dark cloud in your head."
"An underdeveloped amygdala doesn't mean there's something hidden in your head. You've seen a ghost before, and with the help of something in your brain, it's like using AI glasses for the college entrance exam. Don't you think that's cheating?"
The woman with the severed hand finished speaking.
More and more figures gradually appeared on the water's surface.
A man with a crow perched on his shoulder.
A short man wearing a straw hat.
……
Blood began to seep from the cracks in the well's stones, as if something was about to burst forth and appear before the Zombie Brother at any moment, further pressuring him.
A thin layer of sweat appeared on Zombie Brother's forehead.
"What...what do you want to do?"
He didn't think that the simultaneous appearance of so many different figures was because Zhang Ze was kindly giving him a specialist consultation and chatting with him about life and ideals.
I want to see your past.
"To cure your illness."
Zhang Ze uttered a set of words very much like what Dr. Gao would say, and as Qiu Mei's right eye suddenly opened, the dark shadow in the zombie brother's mind twitched rapidly as if stimulated, gradually turning into a short, thin, monkey-like black creature...
Sadako and Akemi's supernatural abilities come together.
Implanting memories and retrieving memories.
Zhang Ze wanted to see what the Zombie Brother had been through.
