Chapter 1953

"For example, I can fight you one-on-one. If I win, I'll get to leave. What do you think?" Renee asked seriously. It had been her plan from the beginning since she was a professional fighter, having once been the top assassin.

"No, we can't do that!" The lips of the dark figure twitched in annoyance. "The first rule in the handbook is that you can't beat up the actors. If you do, you'll be disqualified."

"Fine!" Renee nodded. After some contemplation, she said reluctantly, "Okay, I'll do the task. How should we hug? Hurry up, I need to keep playing." She found the game rather interesting and didn't want to be disqualified so fast. She couldn't give up the iron hook either, so she had to make some sacrifices and complete the task. After all, it was just a hug.

"Okay, you promised.' The dark figure sounded satisfied with Renee's choice. He laughed wildly, then threw off his black robe and giant hat.

Renee's eyes widened in horror, and she felt nauseous as she stumbled back. "Ugh, what kind of monster are you? I'm going to vomit!" The dark figure's skin was covered in pustules and sticky green liquid, and his revolting face was deformed and covered in blood and pus. Renee had watched a lot of cult films and could tolerate a lot of things, but this was almost unbearable. Trying to motivate herself, she babbled, "Wow, your boss really put in a lot of effort for this! I'm sure he spent a lot of money on makeup and is a huge fan of films like The Hills Have Eyes and Wrong Turn. You're more frightening than the mutants in those! Hmm, no wonder this place is the top escape room in Beach City. People could go mad seeing this!"

'Hug me, Jayla. I've been waiting for you for more than two decades..." The dark figure looked disgusting, but his lines were unexpectedly romantic. "I remember that the moon was full the night we broke up. You said you would be mine, and we would be together on the next full moon. From that day, I've waited for you on every full moon. I waited until I died and my body rotted. I waited until maggots ate my face, but I still didn't see you. I miss you so much that my soul can't leave this place, and now, you're finally here. Just come into my arms, and everything will be like it was...

Based on his lines, Renee figured that he must have died while waiting for Jayla, which was why his body was in such a disgusting state. "Your love story is very touching, but I'm afraid you're not my taste. I can't date a rotten corpse. Bye!" Renee tried to escape from the corridor behind him while he was talking. She bypassed him to go upstairs, but accidentally slipped and fell...

"Don't run away, Jayla!" The figure grinned wickedly, running towards Renee as sticky liquid dripped from his body.
