Amelia patted her chest and promised, “Third Uncle, don’t worry! Only ghosts will have psychological trauma. We won’t!”
Henry was speechless. He looked at the tourist notice and pointed at a line of words on it. He lied through his teeth. “Look at this. It says that children can’t play.”
Amelia couldn’t read. She could only make out the two numbers “14.” She said, “It says you can’t play at fourteen. None of us are fourteen!” She was four and a half years old. Sister Emma had just turned six. Brother William was seven. Brother Lucas was nine. None of them were fourteen!
Emma: “That’s right! Mia is right!!
William: “Third Uncle, it says that children under the age of 14 need a guardian to accompany them in. It doesn’t say that children can’t enter.”
Henry:

Henry: “…” If you can’t make up your mind, look for Big Brother! He decisively sent a message to George. “Big Brother, Mia wants to go to the Haunted House to play. I can’t persuade her.”
George said, “Let her go.”
Henry: “???”
Henry: “Brother! Haunted house! That’s a haunted house! It can scare people to death. This kind of thing is not suitable for children to go in!”
On the other end of the cell phone, George pondered for a moment. “It’s indeed not good to scare people. Wait a moment.”
Henry heaved a sigh of relief. His brother was William and Lucas’ biological father after all. William and Lucas would definitely listen to him. If William and Lucas didn’t go, Amelia would definitely listen and not go.
Half a minute later, George sent a message. “That’s enough. I’ve made arrangements. Bring them in directly.”
Henry: “???”
Ten minutes later.
Henry led the four children in and stood at the first level of the Haunted House entrance. They did not know how they got in! What was this?! Didn’t they say that people below the age of fourteen could not enter?!
William was still saying, “See, I told you that under the age of 14, you need an adult to accompany you. It’s not that you can’t enter…” As he spoke, he
suddenly felt a chill on his neck and instantly didn’t dare to make a sound.
To be precise, this Haunted House was called the Haunted House Escape Room. They had to clear the items in the first level or solve the level murders before they could reach the next level. They had to pass level after level until they successfully escaped.
Now that he was standing at the entrance of the first level, William realized that his legs were a little weak.
Emma was still excited. She was scared, but she couldn’t wait to play. Lucas’s small face was stiff, and it was obvious that he was a little nervous.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Don’t be afraid.” Henry could only brace himself. With a gentle smile on his face, he comforted Amelia, “Your eldest uncle should have greeted them. It won’t be too scary.”
Henry knew George very well and doted on Mia very much. He would think of a way to achieve whatever Mia wanted. He believed that his eldest brother knew his limits. His eldest brother said that it had been arranged. The event location must have been specially decorated and removed those scary things. Hence, Henry gradually relaxed.
“Let’s go.” Henry walked in front and turned around to comfort Amelia gently.
“Don’t worry, Third Uncle is here…”
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew past and the curtains were blown up! Then, with a bang, the red candle on the table was sent flying. The red candle rolled a few times and finally stopped at Henrys feet.
Henry was speechless. The words were stuck in his throat.
Amelia, on the other hand, was calm. “Third Uncle, don’t be afraid. It’s just the wind.’
Henry forced himself to stay calm. “Third Uncle isn’t afraid…” Embarrassing, too embarrassing! In front of his little niece, he was actually frightened by a curtain!
Henry’s ears turned slightly red. He calmed himself down and looked around.
William read out the background introduction of this stage. “The first stage is called ‘The Groom Who Disappeared’. The background is ancient… A certain Miss Lan from a foreign family is over 20 years old and hasn’t married. In order to find a husband for her daughter, the minister posted a notice…” The general meaning was that whoever was willing to marry his daughter would be given 100,000 taels of silver as dowry, 10 pieces of silk, 10 boxes of gold, silver, and jewelry, a courtyard…
Logically speaking, with so much money, there should be many people coming, but after the notice was posted for a month, there was no one. It turned out that not only was Miss Lan ugly, but most importantly, she was was destined to bring misfortune. Before they posted the notice, she had already been engaged four times, but in the end, before she could get married,
the man died mysteriously. Sdied of an illness, swere killed by apples falling from trees, swere bitten to death by dogs, and the last one fell into the water and died..
