You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?

Shang Xiangyun noticed the wariness in his eyes.

“I have children at home, and I can’t stand seeing this. Can’t adults come? Well… those who are a little ugly.”

Upon hearing this, the man's wariness lessened considerably.

"Well, there's nothing we can do about that. Our venue is all about random combinations. There are some crazy people who want snakes to compete against lions. Isn't that a guaranteed loss? What's the point of playing that, right?"

Shang Xiangyun was taken aback for a moment: "One of the competitors can be someone who isn't human?"

"Of course you can, I already said you can mix and match as you like."

Shang Xiangyun remained silent.

Seeing this, the man shoved a pen and paper into his hand.

"Alright, if you don't want to see Little Lion, then we're not on the same page. I'll go ask the others."

Shang Xiangyun stared blankly at the pen and paper in his hand.

His hands trembled slightly.

Lin Jingmo looked at Su Chen: "Shall we make a move?"

Wei Shaoqing nodded and lowered his voice, saying, "The security here doesn't seem very good. Our cell phones weren't confiscated when we came in. We should be able to call the police now."

"Report it, we must report it! They're all beasts!" Shang Xiangyun couldn't help himself. Although he tried to keep his voice down, his slightly agitated expression still attracted the attention of the others. He immediately calmed down. "They didn't need to kill anyone, but they insisted on using children. They're all inhuman."

Lin Jingmo patted his shoulder reassuringly: "Don't get agitated."

Shang Xiangyun took a few deep breaths and looked at Su Chen.

Su Chen sighed: "Do you think anyone will come if we call the police?"

The group of people froze.

They exchanged a few glances, their faces showing only helplessness.

Right!

The fact that it's been able to operate in Guangzhou for so long without any crackdowns on mobile phones suggests that not everyone enjoys watching such gory content; someone must have called the police eventually. The fact that it continues to exist and operate proves…

"The boss behind this seems to have a very powerful background," Wei Shaoqing sighed. "It will probably be difficult to uproot him completely."

Lin Jingmo raised an eyebrow.

"City is in turmoil right now. Even if we take action, it's easy to let people go."

He frowned deeply: "It's only been open for a short time, but this place looks like it's been open for at least several years..."

"Shh, someone's coming," Wei Shaoqing warned.

The group looked up and saw a blond-haired young man walking over in a nonchalant manner, holding a pack of cigarettes in his hand.

"Is this your first time here, guys?" he asked, offering cigarettes in a very familiar manner.

Shang Xiangyun hesitated for a moment before taking it, and chuckled dryly, "It is indeed my first time here. I heard this place is an amusement park, but... I was a little scared just now."

"That's normal. I was scared when I first came here, and I had nightmares for several days afterward."

Seeing that Wei Shaoqing and Lin Jingmo had accepted cigarettes, the young man turned to Su Chen and waved his hand, saying, "Sorry, I don't smoke."

The young man raised an eyebrow, but didn't mind. He smiled and took out a lighter to light Shang Xiangyun and the others. He then lit one for himself, took a deep drag, and said, "Perfect, I need a smoke to calm my nerves."

Shang Xiangyun: "Thank you!"

The young man waved his hand: "What are you thanking me for? It's just a cigarette. My name is Liu Zhihong, everyone calls me Ah Hong. What about you guys?"

Shang Xiangyun subconsciously looked at Su Chen, and seeing him nod, she directly gave her real name.

The same applies to Wei Shaoqing and Lin Jingmo.

Liu Zhihong looked at Su Chen.

"Su Chen."

"Your Mandarin is quite good; it doesn't sound like you're from Hong Kong," Liu Zhihong said with a smile, trying to find out.

Su Chen nodded: "I'm from Cuicheng."

Liu Zhihong squinted, and after a long while, he seemed to realize something: "He's here to do business? He must be a big boss."

Su Chen didn't refute. He glanced around and saw that people had already started handing in their slips of paper and were beginning to tally the results.

He stomped his foot: "Are there a lot of animals and people locked up down there?"

Liu Zhihong waved his hand: "It's not closed, there's just a passage down there."

"Understood. Whichever group gets the most votes will be the ones to come out, right? Will those kids volunteer to come out?"

Liu Zhihong chuckled and said, "Whether it's voluntary or not, there's nothing we can do. They can't survive if they don't come."

Lin Jingmo frowned: "Using food and drink to threaten them?"

Liu Zhihong shook his head.

"It's not that simple, they are..." He paused, cleared his throat, and chuckled dryly, "Well, it's hard to say, just know that the kid is cooperating with this side."

"Cooperation?" Wei Shaoqing and the others frowned in confusion.

"Oh, let's not talk about that. You guys think this place is a bit scary, so how about I take you to check out some other places? There are so many places around here, surely one of them will suit you. Come on, come on..."

Without saying a word, Liu Zhihong dragged Shang Xiangyun toward the stairs.

Shang Xiangyun was somewhat displeased: "Didn't you say today, the 2nd, would be quite lively? How lively? We haven't seen anything yet..."

Liu Zhihong paused.

He explained, "Oh, Xiaorui, she's the final performer, it'll be very late, so let's not rush."

"Come on, come on, I'll show you around some other places. You're a bit timid since you're new here, let's have some fun..."

As soon as he stepped down the stairs, Liu Zhihong's body stiffened.

"Brother Chen, what brings you here?"

"Ah Hong, you're dragging people out of my place again. Is this for fun?"

Liu Zhihong chuckled twice and quickly offered him a cigarette.

His cigarette was pushed back.

“Brother Chen, these people are new here and have been frightened. It’s not appropriate for them to stay any longer. I didn’t mean to.”

As Liu Zhihong spoke, he turned to look at Su Chen and the others who had come out.

Shang Xiangyun nodded: "Yes, that child's neck was bitten off, it was terrifying."

As he spoke, he carefully observed this Brother Chen.

He was around thirty or forty years old, with a pig-like face, a big belly, and a gold necklace around his neck with a gold Buddha pendant hanging from the bottom.

Su Chen's gaze fell on the Buddha amulet, and he narrowed his eyes slightly.

Is this the surprise the divination indicates?

Noticing Su Chen's gaze, Brother Chen glanced down at his Buddhist amulet, then looked at Su Chen sideways, instinctively frowning: "Who is this guy? He doesn't look like he's here to have fun."

Liu Zhihong turned his head and glanced at Su Chen.

It does look somewhat different, but...

He leaned closer to Brother Chen and whispered, "Brother Chen, don't just judge a book by its cover. You're very knowledgeable. Some people look innocent, but what are they up to behind the scenes? That's why there's a term for scoundrels..."

The wariness in Brother Chen's eyes lessened slightly, and he glanced at him: "A refined scoundrel!"

"I told you to hire someone to read, but you're still illiterate. No wonder your business has never taken off."

"If business is bad again, wait until the boss comes to inspect, and you'll be in for a beating!"

Liu Zhihong shuddered. Why was he massaging Chen Ge's shoulders? "Brother Chen, Brother Chen, you have a good relationship with the boss. You must put in a good word for me. I promise, if I have any good stuff, I'll send it to you right away, okay?"

Brother Chen relaxed, picked up a cigarette, and Liu Zhihong immediately lit it for him as a fawning servant.

After taking two puffs, Brother Chen waved his hand and said, "Go on, go on, remember what you said."

Liu Zhihong thanked him repeatedly, then turned around and hurriedly beckoned Su Chen and the others to walk towards another factory building. After about ten steps, his face relaxed.

"Damn it, he's just a distant relative of the boss, otherwise we wouldn't have given you venue number 2..."

When he met Shang Xiangyun and the others' gaze, he quickly looked away and smiled, "Over here, over here..."
