Chapter 362: Entering the Cabin

~11 min read 2,054 words

After the scene at the gas station, the atmosphere in the car was a bit off. The originally active atmosphere turned to silence.

Curt was driving the car, but his mind wasn't on it.

His cousin had bought a house on the mountain. Originally, he was very happy and had specially brought his friends to play. After all, this world was full of acid rain and car exhaust wind, and there were very few places with such beautiful scenery.

To be honest, when he first heard that his cousin had bought such a house, besides surprise, he couldn't believe it. In his memory, the only people who could live in a world with green were the bosses of big companies; there was no one else. He didn't expect his cousin could actually buy such a cabin.

But now, all the joy had disappeared without a trace. The bald man's words had cast a shadow over his heart.

"Is what he said true?" Jules combed her golden hair and was the first to break the gloom. "I think this is just a coincidence."

Coincidence? No one present took this word to heart. One is a coincidence, two is a coincidence, three is a coincidence, but five, six? Every owner had died. Although they didn't know how they died, it still made them fearful.

"Maybe it's a chainsaw killer," Marty proposed his idea. "Selling the house to others at a low price, then driving them away. If they don't leave, kill them, to obtain huge profits. I have to say, this is a brilliant idea. I think I can call the police."

"Didn't they say there's no cell signal here?" Holden whispered. But his whispering was clearly out of place in this quiet car. Everyone else looked at him at once.

"Oh, I say Holden, can you not say these unlucky things?" Jules pointed at Holden and then turned her spearhead toward Marty. "And you, Marty, what chainsaw killer. Do you want us all to be killed?"

"It can't be a chainsaw killer." Ye Nan frowned. "In such an elegant environment, those big company bosses wouldn't let it go. Those greedy people are very concerned about this kind of thing."

"Maybe they didn't discover it." Jules proposed this, which even she didn't believe.

House transfers cannot avoid the government. And for such a precious thing, a transfer is equivalent to showing off a pearl in front of greedy crocodiles. If those crocodiles didn't eat it, they wouldn't be crocodiles.

"It's impossible for the big crocodiles not to discover it. And the reason they didn't take action is clearly because there is a powerful person or organization protecting this place. And this person or organization should have some kind of conspiracy. As for what it is, I can't analyze it." Ye Nan understood very well. The Cabin in the Woods was purely a trap set by some mysterious organization, with the purpose of sacrificing to some mysterious demon god. Of course, Ye Nan didn't believe in the so-called demon god.

However, understanding was one thing, but Ye Nan wouldn't say it out loud. He and these people were just passing acquaintances. If it were normal times, helping them out wouldn't matter; anyway, there was no loss. But now was not normal times. The Cabin in the Woods was very dangerous. Even he couldn't guarantee his own safety.

Risk and benefit coexist. He was already overwhelmed.

As soon as Ye Nan's conspiracy theory came out, the car fell into an eerie silence again. An uneasy atmosphere flowed underneath, and no one was willing to speak easily.

"Seems like we're here," Curt's voice came over, and then he stopped the car on the side.

"Is this the place?"

"It should be. Let's get off the car."

A group of people walked off the car, their feet stepping on the yellowing fallen leaves, making a squeaking sound. If it were before, everyone would be happy, because fallen leaves also represented vitality. But now, no one was happy. They were all surrounded by an eerie aura, with no mind to play.

The Cabin in the Woods was an ordinary wooden house. Of course, the so-called ordinary was extremely beautiful in this world.

"Sure enough, it's here." Ye Nan thought inwardly. This was exactly the location Charlie's Friend had pointed out, and these people's goal was also here, which was enough to prove that this was the movie *The Cabin in the Woods*.

"A mysterious organization is monitoring all of this. They even make arrangements in the dark. And what I need to do is use my foresight to obtain the greatest benefit."

"It's quite beautiful here."

"If there's a spider here, I'll spend the night in the car. I hate this kind of old house, even if the scenery is beautiful."

Dana and Jules said opposite things.

"It's interesting that these people still have the mood to say these things." Ye Nan looked at them in surprise. He had just reminded them, but he didn't expect these people to still have the mood to play. It was simply incredible.

"No wonder they would read the incantation. They really are thick-skinned."

Ye Nan thought helplessly in his heart. It seemed that all the people who triggered clues were people with heavy curiosity. They didn't understand at all what "curiosity killed the cat" meant. But he forgot that he also had heavy curiosity.

"Let's go. No matter what's inside, since we're here, we can't go back. We have to be happy for a while. Anyway, I've had enough of that damn stench outside." Jules suddenly let go of everything and walked in quickly.

"Me too. Here I can feel the beauty of nature." Marty spread his arms, as if breathing the natural air freely, and followed behind.

"I didn't expect that even though I created such a terrifying atmosphere, I still couldn't scare them. Is it the inertia of the plot, or is it their own temperament?" Ye Nan thought for a while, found he couldn't figure it out, so he put the thought aside and followed them up.

"Wait a moment, remember not to run around. Follow Daddy, you know?"

Ye Nan transmitted the words to Melina Shilu with psychic power. Only after seeing Melina Shilu nod did he feel relieved.

Although Melina Shilu had never run around, he still couldn't feel at ease, because this was the Cabin in the Woods. That terrifying Cabin in the Woods.

Pushing open the door and walking into the cabin, the first thing that entered his nose was a musty smell. However, this musty smell was much better than the car exhaust wind outside.

"This painting is not bad." Melina Shilu rushed up excitedly. In front of her was a painting. The painting depicted a group of people holding sickles, looking at the people on the ground. It looked somewhat bloody and eerie.

"What kind of taste do you have?" Marty walked up and said with disdain: "This kind of painting is usually painted by perverts. People who like this kind of painting are also perverts."

"Who are you calling a pervert?" Melina Shilu looked at Marty with dissatisfaction.

"Whoever likes it, that's who I'm calling." Marty glared back at Melina Shilu, not showing weakness.

"You're looking for death."

Melina Shilu was so angry she went berserk. She had never met anyone who dared to treat her like this. Now that someone dared to treat her like this, she immediately wanted to strike.

"Alright, there's no need to argue." Ye Nan stopped Melina Shilu. He understood Melina Shilu's personality and knew she was a very impulsive child, so he spoke to stop her. After all, these people still had some use.

"Although I don't know why they need these five people to sacrifice to the evil god, they are all my best shields." Ye Nan sneered inwardly, marking these five people for death.

"Fine." Seeing Melina Shilu stopped by Ye Nan, Marty knew there was nothing more to say, so he walked up and took down the painting. "This painting is really an eyesore here."

"Bastard." Melina Shilu looked at Marty's actions, and the anger in her heart burned instantly. If Ye Nan hadn't stopped her, she would definitely have let this person named Marty know what a Xenomorph Queen was.

Bang!

Marty placed the painting on the ground, secretly looking at Melina Shilu. Seeing she had no reaction, he understood that his idea of provoking her had gone bankrupt.

He didn't know when it started, but he had hated Ye Nan. He felt some strange aura on Ye Nan, an aura that made him disgusted, made him hate, and made him wish he could drive Ye Nan away. However, he understood that if he didn't have a reason, he couldn't drive Ye Nan away, even if he and the others were friends, because friends wouldn't support someone who was clearly making trouble for no reason.

"What is this?" Ye Nan pointed at Jules behind the painting and said in surprise.

"What." Marty turned his head and happened to see Jules about to take off her clothes. He immediately knocked on the mirror and said: "Beauty taking off clothes inside, you're about to expose yourself."

Jules, who was in the inner room intending to change clothes, suddenly heard a voice from behind the door. She was shocked and looked up, but saw nothing.

She ran out of the room, followed the sound, and walked over, happening to see Ye Nan and the others here.

"Marty took down the painting, and there's a mirror behind the painting. It seems you can see inside." Ye Nan pointed at the mirror and said.

"During the pioneering period, many houses had private interrogation rooms. They used this kind of thing to watch prisoners. But it's been many years. It seems this house has a long history." Marty said lightly.

"Yes, and it has changed so many owners."

Ye Nan's sentence immediately made the atmosphere heavy. Even Jules, who was known to be thick-skinned, couldn't help but be afraid.

Just at this moment, a voice interjected, startling everyone.

"What are you all doing?"

"You scared me to death." Jules saw it was Curt, and only then did she feel relieved, while also complaining.

"I saw you all here, and didn't know what you were doing," Curt said, hugging Jules and saying intimately.

"It was Marty, taking down the painting, and it ended up revealing a mirror, which happens to be able to see my room. By the way, Curt, who did you buy this house from? How come it even has a private interrogation room?" Jules complained.

"This is my cousin's. I don't know who he bought it from either. In short, it was very cheap and very good." Curt said. "Why don't we change rooms? Marty likes peeping at people the most."

"Get off, I don't even want to listen, let alone peep at people. Don't slander me, okay?" Marty shouted, wanting to wash away his grievance.

"I don't care if you like peeping or not. In short, you have to change rooms with me. I'm not living in any private interrogation room." Jules pointed at Marty's shoulder and said word by word.

"Fine, change then." Marty raised his hands and surrendered.

"What interesting friends." Ye Nan watched their bickering, his gaze landing on a corner of the house. In his feeling, there was something in that place monitoring their every move. But soon, he shifted his gaze. "Melina Shilu, let's go."

In a mysterious place, everything that happened in the Cabin in the Woods was captured by screens. When the screen froze on Ye Nan's gaze, a scholar sitting in a wheelchair was quite surprised.

"He discovered us?"

"It should be impossible. The cameras used are the most advanced pinhole cameras, as thin as needles. He couldn't have discovered us. Perhaps it was just a coincidence."

"Regardless of whether it is or not, they changed rooms, so modify the plan. We have to find a way to get rid of these two strange visitors."

"Getting rid of them might alert them. It's better to complete the plan first. After the plan is completed, then we'll deal with the two of them."

"That works too." ===== CHAPTER 363 =====
