Thriller Zone: From the Mental Hospital to the Ghostly World

Chapter 533 [Domain - Second Gate] Incense Burner

No one responded to him.

There was only an empty dressing table.

An eerie silence fell over the entire beauty salon.

It was so quiet that Luo Weicheng could clearly hear his heart pounding heavily in his chest, each beat heavier than the last.

Just then, a soft humming sound broke the silence in the beauty salon.

"La...la la..."

The voice was very soft, it was a female voice, there were no lyrics, only the melody.

The singing was light and airy.

It's not Wu Hui.

The female voice, which seemed to come from nowhere, was extremely eerie in this environment, giving Luo Weicheng goosebumps!

But the most terrifying thing is that everything here is exactly the same as before, nothing has been added or removed!

Of all his experiences with ghosts, Luo Weicheng knew that it was the unknown that drove people crazy.

He knew something had changed, but he couldn't see it or observe it.

calm.

Luo Weicheng took a deep breath. He didn't know where Wu Hui was now, but he had to find her as soon as possible.

He walked towards the dressing table where Wu Hui had just been.

They were both in the same room. He was fine, but Wu Hui was taken away. If it weren't for her gender, then she could only be with...

Luo Weicheng looked in the mirror.

His first suspicion was about the mirror.

Mirrors are inherently objects with heavy yin energy, and in the realm of spirits, they are often used as a means for ghosts to kill people.

In the mirror, he saw his own body. Even in the dimly lit room, his face was unusually pale, and his expression carried a hint of worry that he could not hide.

Just then, Luo Weicheng was suddenly horrified to see a white figure appear behind him!

Someone was standing behind him!

Luo Weicheng suddenly turned his head and saw only a dimly lit beauty room. The light from outside the window shone in, so it wasn't completely dark, but it still cast many shadows.

Two beds. A cabinet. A painting that's purely decorative and has no deeper meaning.

That's all, no different from before.

But Luo Weicheng suddenly felt a chill.

"La... la la..."

The light, airy singing suddenly became clear, as if a girl was softly humming in his ear!

But there was still nothing beside him.

Luo Weicheng's throat moved slightly. He slowly turned his head, his gaze gradually locking onto the mirror again.

Then he saw the singer.

The woman who was singing.

A female nurse.

No, to be precise, she only looked like a nurse, but she wasn't actually wearing a nurse's uniform; she was wearing casual clothes she had bought herself to make her look more professional.

In the mirror, she squeezed in front of Luo Weicheng, humming a song, one hand supporting her head, which was only connected to her neck by a little bit of skin and flesh.

If we don't hold her down, her head will fall off with a thud and smash onto the dressing table...

It was only then that Luo Weicheng suddenly noticed a tray on the dressing table in the mirror!

The plate contained gauze, iodine, syringes, and the unidentified injection solution he had seen before.

But there was none in front of Luo Weicheng.

The smell of disinfectant... the singing, and Wu Hui suddenly disappearing.

The world in the mirror and reality are two different worlds, and Wu Hui has entered the world in the mirror!

Luo Weicheng made a quick judgment: if that were the case, then Wu Hui would be facing something truly terrifying.

This made his heart clench.

He turned the dressing table around, gradually illuminating the entire beauty room.

As expected, this place is not the same as reality.

There's an extra little cart.

Everything suggested that the beauty salon was preparing something.

But Wu Hui is not here.

Luo Weicheng took a deep breath, immediately got up, and went outside. The lights outside were also off.

There are also several beauty salons here.

As soon as he stepped into the corridor, Luo Weicheng's nose twitched slightly.

The disinfectant smell had indeed faded, but he could smell a very strong incense aroma.

It smells like something out of a temple, but in reality, they've never seen an incense burner in a beauty salon.

The smell was coming from the innermost office of the beauty salon...

They've already checked there; the files have all been cleared.

Luo Weicheng stood in the middle of the corridor, hesitated for a moment, and then walked towards his office.

open the door.

Unlike the style outside the beauty salon, this place is furnished with mahogany desks and executive chairs, which feels out of place.

The flavor inside is extremely rich.

"Huihui, are you here?"

Luo Weicheng cautiously looked around.

There were no mirrors here, and he couldn't observe the world inside them, but based on his previous experience, some of the movements in the mirror could be projected onto the outside world.

A few seconds later, he suddenly heard a short sob.

It happened so quickly, in a flash, like an illusion.

Luo Weicheng stopped in his tracks.

Judging from the sound, he realized that the crying had been very close to him.

Just then, another fearful sob suddenly rang in Luo Weicheng's ears.

Now he was absolutely certain; it was Wu Hui's voice!

However, Luo Weicheng's expression changed slightly, and he did not respond, a hint of doubt appearing in his eyes.

Based on his understanding of Wu Hui... this reaction is not normal. Wu Hui is quite bold and is unlikely to be frightened.

And to be honest, he's known Wu Hui for so many years, and he's never seen her cry more than a few times.

But......

But what if she really gets caught by a ghost?

That slight doubt was quickly suppressed by worry, but just as Luo Weicheng was about to open his mouth to ask how Wu Hui was doing, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

The dim light from outside the window shone into the dimly lit room, with only one bright spot.

door.

To be precise, it's the Bagua mirror hanging at the very top behind the door.

It was very small, but because of the angle at which it was hung, Luo Weicheng could see himself clearly, see the entire office, and see the incense burner on the mahogany desk, with three long, thin, vermilion sticks sticking out like incense sticks.

He saw it too...

On his back lay a small, dark, deformed monster.

wrong.

It was a baby.

A baby that was born prematurely and before it was fully developed.

Her face was wrinkled and her features were distorted—her mouth was slightly open, as if she were crying, and she spoke in Wu Hui's voice:

"Old Luo... save me!"

When the sound reached Luo Weicheng's ears, the hairs on his body stood on end instantly. Without thinking, he turned and ran!

This ghost was definitely here a long time ago...

It's even possible that it will happen before the lights go out!

Otherwise, how could it possibly know its own name!

Just as Luo Weicheng stepped out of the office, he felt the slowly seeping cold on his shoulder suddenly disappear.

Instead, a venomous gaze filled the air.

Wiping the cold sweat from his brow, Luo Weicheng could vaguely sense that if he had left a minute later, he might have experienced something extremely terrifying.

"No, the nurse didn't notice me, but the baby can see me..."

It even genuinely affected me.

Therefore, we cannot blindly search for them now.

It's quite possible that every room is haunted.

The key room should be the beauty salon, where a certain procedure is being prepared. If he's not mistaken, the person being performed is very likely Wu Hui.

But Wu Hui wasn't there.

It hasn't started yet, so the most likely place for her to appear is—

Luo Weicheng looked towards the bathroom in the distance.

The door was tightly shut.

He slowly walked over and gradually heard an impatient tapping sound, as if someone was waiting for someone outside the bathroom, their shoes tapping incessantly on the floor.

This confirmed his guess. He pushed open the door and slipped into the bathroom.

Inside was a huge mirror.

Luo Weicheng looked in the mirror and saw himself, as well as the familiar figure standing right next to him in the mirror.

Wu Hui.

In the mirror, her tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed, and a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes.

"Old Luo?"

She could see Luo Weicheng.

"What exactly happened?" Luo Weicheng immediately asked.

"To make a long story short, I'm stalling for time. I should be in another time and space right now, and the employees here are all ghosts."

Wu Hui speaks very quickly:

"I don't know what they're taking me to do, but I noticed something, and it's very important!"

"The owner of this beauty salon is named Zhang Wei, the man from the couple in 2013!"
