Chapter 94

Liu Yu sprinted blindly with his eyes squeezed shut, and it didn’t take him long to realize he had run straight into a dead end.

He had just shaken off the two corpses and hadn’t even had time to catch his breath when a series of click-clack sounds rang out.

Dense clusters of holes appeared in the surrounding walls.

One pale corpse after another crawled toward him from every direction.

Watching this, Zhang Bei nodded in satisfaction. The Eerie Doll really lived up to its name.

From the looks of it, whenever a visitor tried to run, it would trigger a pursuit command.

And at that moment, their little guinea pig, Liu Yu, was enduring an enormous amount of terror.

In a dim corner, corpse after corpse dragged themselves toward you with both hands.

That fear far exceeded the limits of what Liu Yu could withstand. With his back against the wall, his eyes rolled up, and he fainted on the spot.

Professor Wei pushed a cart out from a nearby passage.

“His constitution isn’t much good, is it? It’s just a bunch of corpses. We have even more running around under our school.”

He carefully glanced at the heart rate monitor and checked Liu Yu over. After confirming there was nothing wrong, he tossed him onto the cart.

Zhang Bei smacked his lips. Was this thing really that powerful?

It had only been twenty-four minutes. They hadn’t even reached thirty yet!

But since the man had already fainted, Zhang Bei couldn’t very well shake him awake and keep using him as a guinea pig.

He could only wait for the next fated soul to come along.

Meanwhile, our dear Doctor Wang was filled with concern.

“Sir, is this child really your biological son?”

Cao Jia lifted his eyes from his phone, where he had been checking his balance.

“It’s fine. This kid’s tough!”

Seeing that his son had already woken up from his faint, Cao Jia hurriedly pulled up his QR code.

“Anyone else want to try? Rent-a-son, ten yuan per round!”

[Alipay received: ten yuan!]

“Sent!”

“All right, then. Hope you have fun!”

Cao Jia beamed as he hauled his son up and handed him over to the visitor.

After Little Cao had suffered through several rounds of torment, Cao Jia had finally come up with this brilliant idea.

His private stash of more than thirty thousand yuan had already gone down the drain.

Either this brat earned it back for his old man, or he could live in the amusement park!

Doctor Wang looked at Little Cao, who had lost all hope in life, and silently offered him his blessings.

All of a sudden, a voice sounded by Cao Jia’s ear.

“Uncle, if I pay you, can you take me on it?”

Cao Jia turned to look. A little boy and a little girl were standing there, holding cash with their eyes sparkling.

“I, uh, this isn’t…”

“Thank you, Uncle!”

A bill was stuffed into his hand. Cao Jia was still dazed when the boy grabbed his hand.

“Baobao, wait here. If it isn’t scary, you can go next!”

A sweet smile appeared on the little girl’s face. “Okay!”

Doctor Wang: ???

Were kids these days maturing this early?

Wait a second. Were this father-and-son pair actually making money at the amusement park?

Fortunately, this round of visitors wasn’t full yet. The boy dragged Cao Jia along, and they quickly lay down inside the cannon barrel.

Not far away, Little Cao watched Cao Jia with an icy gaze.

Only the visitor holding him could hear him muttering under his breath.

“Pull the oxygen tube. Pull the oxygen tube…”

Amid one scream after another, the visitors were instantly launched into the sky.

The parachute had only just opened when Cao Jia couldn’t wait to yank the pull ring.

Little Cao’s expression remained calm. Among the many parachutes, he quickly found Cao Jia’s figure.

Looking at that trembling body, he silently turned his head away. “Tch!”

The parachute soon landed on the ground. Little Cao cooperated with the staff as they removed the equipment.

Then, dragging his staggering steps, he walked up to Cao Jia.

“I want half!”
“W-What?”

“I want half of whatever you earn today!”

The moment Cao Jia heard that, his body stopped trembling.

“No way!”

“Then I’ll tell Mom!”

Little Cao’s tone was perfectly calm, but his eyes flashed with a dangerous light.

Father and son locked gazes, and the atmosphere instantly froze into a stalemate.

But Little Cao knew Cao Jia too well. One short sentence was all it took to make him retreat in defeat.

“There’s ten thousand in cash buried in the flowerpot soil.”

Cao Jia clenched his teeth so hard they nearly cracked, his eyes blazing. “Fine. I agree!”

Meanwhile, after the little boy in Cao Jia’s arms was examined by the doctor, he excitedly grabbed the little girl’s hand.

“It’s not dangerous, it’s just really scary!”

The little girl indulgently patted the boy on the head. “Relax. You be good and wait for me, okay?”

“Mm-hmm!”

The little girl walked up to Cao Jia and stuffed a ten-yuan bill into his hand.

“Good luck, mister. I’ll introduce more customers to you later!”

Cao Jia opened his mouth, and a chill spread from the inside out.

Little Cao fought hard not to laugh out loud. “Then thank you, little sister!”

A new round of visitors was sent into the cannon barrel. Finally getting a chance to rest, Little Cao ate popcorn while watching his dear old dad work hard to earn money.

In the Monitoring Room, Zhang Bei rubbed Digua’s dog head with one hand while his consciousness browsed through the System Mall.

He had obtained the System quite some time ago, but Zhang Bei had never seriously gone through the mall.

The System did live up to its name. Many of the ready-made facilities inside were full of fairy-tale charm.

Take the Carousel, for example. As it rotated, it would coordinate with the scenery around it to present one beautiful, dreamlike tableau after another.

Unfortunately, Zhang Bei really couldn’t bring himself to compliment it.

Would anyone actually ride this thing?

How could it possibly be as comfortable as the Disco Horse he had designed with his own hands?

Soon, Zhang Bei discovered something in a corner that he had never seen before.

[Simulated Food Production Method: five thousand Emotional Value.]

The price wasn’t expensive, but this thing was sold one recipe at a time!

For example, a rabbit’s simulated food recipe cost five thousand Emotional Value. If he wanted to buy one for a puppy, that would be another five thousand.

Most of the System’s descriptions were for animal models.

But he was Zhang Bei!

After only a brief moment of thought, he clicked purchase.

Looking at the input box that popped up, Zhang Bei rubbed his hands together.

“Braised Human Hand!”

The System’s voice fell silent for a moment.

[Simulated food is being generated. Emotional Value has been deducted.]

Soon, a detailed production method flooded into his mind.

Zhang Bei read through it carefully from start to finish before printing out a copy.

Holding the still-warm sheet of white paper, he eagerly went to find Chef Li.

“Can you make this?”

Chef Li looked at the paper in Zhang Bei’s hand and reached out to take it.

For a full three minutes, he read that single sheet of paper countless times, confirming again and again that his eyes weren’t playing tricks on him.

“Boss, you really want to make this?”

A smile hung on Zhang Bei’s face. “Of course. It’s not healthy for visitors to eat boxed lunches every day.”

Chef Li had immersed himself in culinary arts for twenty years. Just by looking at the production method, he could already imagine what the finished product would look like.

The moment he pictured a visitor opening their lunch box and seeing a bloody hand inside…

Chef Li’s heart filled with conflict. “Isn’t this… a bit inappropriate?”

Zhang Bei waved a hand. “It’s fine. You don’t have to eat it. At most, we’ll let Li Yang try the flavor.”

“All right. I’ll go make it now!”

Watching Chef Li head toward the kitchen, Zhang Bei cheerfully went to find Li Yang.
