Thriller Zone: From the Mental Hospital to the Ghostly World

[The previous chapter has been completed]

There are no more clues here.

Chen Ji pushed open the door without hesitation, his brows furrowed.

"Our most critical goal right now is to find the flight attendant."

Regardless of what the flight attendant ultimately decides to do, and whether he has any spare hair left, his intention is undoubtedly to kill all those who enter the domain.

Moreover, Chen Ji didn't know whether the flight attendant possessed any strange objects.

"Let's go and meet up with Fei'er first."

The group immediately left the end of the food preparation room. Nearby, there was still a single strand of hair that had not been restrained.

However, it currently has no host and is still under control.

The further they went, the more tense everyone's expressions became.

No one saw the flight attendant...

Inside the cabin, however, all was quiet.

The air seemed to freeze.

It was late at night, and many passengers were leaning back in their seats, eyes closed, fast asleep.

They naively assumed that when they woke up, the plane would have landed, unaware that several bodies had already been found on board...

Meanwhile, in the nearby restroom, another ghost was stirring restlessly.

Chen Ji glanced at his watch; there was still an hour before the plane landed.

A chill ran through him; they didn't have much time left to stop the flight attendant.

This tranquil atmosphere, however, is more like the surface of the sea before a storm, with undercurrents surging beneath the surface...

A milky white skirt flashed past under the curtain.

It was Fei'er.

She heard footsteps in the hallway, but only peeked out from behind the curtain before retreating back to the lunchbox covered by her hair.

Phil has always diligently fulfilled her duty of guarding her hair.

A few seconds later, Chen Ji and his group entered the front cabin bathroom.

Have you seen the flight attendant?

Liu Zi immediately asked, without even having time to explain what had happened before.

Phil nodded and pointed to the business class: "He went to the front."

"However, I don't know whether they went back to the cabin or not."

The aisles on both sides were separated by toilets, and the location of the lunchbox was in a blind spot, preventing Fei'er from seeing what was happening on the other side of the aisle.

"What happened in the last cabin? You've been there for a long time."

Since everyone stopped using the chat room to communicate, Fei'er had no idea what was going on.

Liu Zi and Qi Chen did not answer and walked directly to the business class cabin, their expressions extremely unpleasant.

Wan Xiaoshuang quickly explained it to Fei'er.

"Is that so?" Phil frowned. "No wonder he asked me if I wanted him to clean up the trash on the ground..."

She added, "But I've been looking at the box the whole time, and the third strand of hair is still inside."

"Do not worry."

Chen Ji felt a slight sense of relief and nodded.

All he could do now was pray that Duan Cong had only one hair left in his stomach, the one that was under the lunchbox.

This is also the most consistent deduction with the current situation.

A moment later...

A hand lifted the curtain.

Liu Zi's somber face emerged from behind the curtain.

"We've found Lan Meng's body," he said briefly, extinguishing everyone's last hope.

The food preparation room fell silent.

Chen Ji closed his eyes heavily. He still held a sliver of hope that Lan Meng might have just been knocked unconscious or taken hostage.

"His death was gruesome..." Liu Zi's voice was low and somber.

He didn't describe it in detail, but for someone who entered the realm to say "it was terrible" meant it was definitely not a simple death.

Wan Xiaoshuang sighed.

In the utter silence, everyone heard a heavy hammering sound coming from inside the business class cabin.

It sounded like someone was banging on a table.

"Qi Chen," Liu Zi muttered, "he...sigh."

Chen Ji remained silent. If he were Qi Chen, he would also find it difficult to accept at this moment.

After all, everyone already knew that Lan Meng most likely overheard Qi Chen's speculations and suspicions about her through the little parrot when she died.

"The dead are gone."

Wan Xiaoshuang asked softly, "Have you seen Flight Attendant?"

Liu Zi's expression worsened, and he shook his head.

“We’ve searched every corner, even the cockpit, but we haven’t found him anywhere.”

Fei'er said, "But he's never come out either."

Just in case, after Qi Chen calmed down, the group split up and checked the cabin again, but found nothing.

The only discovery...

All the bathroom mirrors were smashed.

This was undoubtedly something the flight attendant had done beforehand, to prevent others from using the "face mask" on him.

Everyone returned to the front preparation room and stood guard beside the hair.

Forty minutes left.

Chen Ji glanced at his watch.

And the flight attendant mysteriously disappeared again.

Qi Chen's eyes were bloodshot. He leaned against the wall, his hands tightly hidden in his pockets, lost in thought.

Wan Xiaoshuang gently stroked her white suit, remaining silent.

Sun Weiming's legs trembled. He had never experienced such a realm before. The biggest threat was not the ghosts, but his teammates.

The missing flight attendant is like the Sword of Damocles hanging over everyone's heads, threatening to unleash a catastrophe at any moment.

"We can't just wait passively like this!"

Liu Zi paced back and forth, his brow furrowed: "How exactly did he disappear on the plane?"

The plane was only so big, and apart from the bathroom where the first hair ghost was located, everyone searched every corner.

A look of confusion flashed in Chen Ji's eyes. Apart from the strange creature's special abilities, he couldn't find any other explanation.

"And there's the Hair Ghost..."

"There are no taboos, but touching it will surely lead to death."

He pondered, "If the worst happens, what's the best way to escape?"

Moreover, an airplane is an absolutely enclosed space.

"Live to land..."

"Is it absolutely necessary to land at the destination?"

The thought briefly crossed Chen Ji's mind, but he dismissed it.

An emergency landing is undoubtedly a shortcut, but the risk factor is too high.

Moreover, this operation is irreversible. If the domain is so rigid and only recognizes landing at the destination, then it's all over.

monkey?

It might work, but it would only be enough for a few strands of hair.

Thinking of this, Chen Ji couldn't help but be taken aback.

He quickly took the monkey out of his arms and put it on the ground.

"What are you going to do?" Qi Chen looked up and his expression changed slightly.

Even though he had seen monkeys before, he still felt a chill down his spine whenever he saw their terrifying scarlet mouths.

"To prevent future troubles."

Chen said simply, watching the little monkey crawl on the ground, as if it were telepathically connected to him, and approached the lunchbox.

Snapped!

The monkey flipped the lunchbox open with one paw!

Everyone involuntarily took a few steps back.

"A hair strand cannot move very far without a host."

Chen Ji quickly explained, seeing the little monkey burying its face in the hairpin, it must be sucking out strands of hair.

Right now...

All eyes turned to the rear cabin!

A chilling howl suddenly echoed from the locked bathroom that held the first hair ghost!

Like fingernails scraping across a blackboard—

The moment the sound came out, Chen Ji's whole body broke out in goosebumps, feeling as if his eardrums were being torn apart!

But then, the howl of the hair-wisp ghost....

It was far less terrifying than what Chen Ji had witnessed.

because......

At the very moment that howl rang out.

Time seemed to stand still.

Chen Ji's body instantly stiffened like a stone, and everyone around him froze in that instant.

His own thoughts flowed wildly within his body, which was like that of a vegetable...

Chen Ji saw it.

The monkey lifted its head from its food container and stared at the bathroom from which the howling had originated.

Its face no longer resembles a toy.

It's that... loose-skinned, sparsely haired three-no-monkey.
