"Fuck! You guys don't even dare to watch, yet you're forcing me to play!"
"Y'all all have such bad intentions. Do you even know how scared I am?!"
Hearing the viewers all shouting about how scared they were, Jenny started complaining furiously.
"Forget it, forget it. I don't care anymore. Who cares if the bathroom door is open or not? I'm not going in anyway. Even if you beat me to death, I'm not going in. Staying here in the corridor is just fine!
"This damn game's dogshit designer is just here to mess with people. I refuse to play the way he wants!!!"
"Hah, I'm not going in. Let's see what he can do to me!"
Jenny had clearly been pushed past her breaking point by this game. She was visibly agitated, standing in place and ranting nonstop, spitting everywhere as she even started cursing out the game designer.
However, before she could spit out a few more sentences, another click sounded.
All the lights in the entire corridor suddenly went out!
In an instant, Jenny was left standing alone in complete darkness!
She couldn't even see her own fingers!
Boundless darkness instantly enveloped her.
"Holy fucking shit! Fuck! The lights are out again, and this time the entire corridor is dark!!!!"
"Shit!!!"
Jenny's scream echoed through the darkness, and her voice reverberated in the corridor, creating wave after wave of echoes.
"How the hell am I supposed to play this? It's pitch black and I can't see anything. There's no game experience at all!"
Jenny shouted in terror and fearfully squatted down on the ground.
"I can't do this anymore. I'm done. Chat, this is unplayable. What i am most afraid of is dark!"
At this moment, Jenny only wanted to quit the game. She no longer cared about livestream popularity or gift rewards.
Those things weren't as important as her life!!!
This goddamn game!
That fucking lucien!!!
"Wait, Jenny, calm down! Look, there's light coming from inside the bathroom!"
"Yeah, yeah! There's light in the bathroom!"
"Jenny, hold steady! Go to the bathroom!!"
"Stop shouting, Jenny, your ruining my sesions."
"Come on, Jenny, you can do it! It's just a game, it's all fake!"
"That's right, don't be afraid. Right now, thousands of people are right here with you!"
"We're all sending you gifts right now. Jenny, you got this!"
The enthusiastic viewers once again sent prompts and words of encouragement with one exception.
At the same time, a large wave of gift notification sounds rang out.
With the viewers' encouragement, Jenny managed to muster up some courage.
She looked carefully and sure enough, she saw a faint beam of light leaking out from the open bathroom ahead.
The entire corridor was pitch black, yet only the bathroom had light.
"Fuck! You're messing with me on purpose, huh? This dogshit designer is forcing me into the bathroom, isn't he?!"
Tears were already hanging from the corners of Jenny's eyes as she stomped her feet in fear.
She had realized that this damn Lucien was simply a demon who loved toying with people's hearts!
He knew you didn't want to go into the bathroom, so he turned off all the corridor lights and only left the bathroom lit!
Now are you going or not?
There were now two paths in front of Jenny.
The first was to fumble forward blindly through the pitch-black corridor. This would be very slow, and she would also run the risk of running into that tall female ghost.
She might even bump straight into the female ghost in the darkness.
Tsk, just thinking about it was intense.
The second option was naturally to check the bathroom. After all, there was a light source there that felt safer.
But she might encounter that little girl ghost with the destroyed face.
Both paths seemed fucking terrifying!
But Jenny only had these two choices.
"Phew..."
She took a deep breath. In the last few minutes, Jenny did not know how many times she had done this.
She was starting to feel a little dizzy, though she was not sure if it was from fear.
"Then I'll go check the bathroom, okay? I'm telling you, if I run into anything else scary, I'm really quitting, got it?"
With the viewers' encouragement, Jenny shakily made her decision.
Light was still better than darkness, and the little girl ghost was still better than the old lady ghost!
She straightened up and walked toward the bathroom.
Though she called it walking, it was more like crawling forward. Jenny hugged the wall opposite the bathroom, slowly creeping closer.
After finally reaching the bathroom entrance, she did not dare step inside right away.
Instead, she poked her head in first and nervously peered inside.
She had already mentally prepared herself for the little girl ghost to suddenly rush out.
However, that scene did not happen. Jenny did not see the little girl ghost.
All she saw was a flashlight lying on the dirty floor of the bathroom.
The flashlight was turned on. The light she had seen earlier was coming from it.
"A flashlight. Looks like an in-game item!"
"Jenny, hurry and pick it up!"
"Yeah, yeah!"
The chat urged her.
Jenny did not rush to do it. She first observed the bathroom environment from outside.
Only after confirming there was nothing unusual inside did she step in.
Of course, her nerves remained completely tense the entire time.
She quickly picked up the flashlight from the floor. With it in her hand, Jenny immediately felt a trace of safety.
But in this claustrophobic, dark environment, that sense of safety was still far too insignificant.
