"Om-!"
Suddenly, Dou Tang heard a sound of acceleration coming from behind him. Out of his quick thinking, he ducked sharply, and a steel pipe swept past the back of his head, nearly hitting him.
These people actually took action?!
"Hey kid! Our captain's got his eye on your bike, stop right now!" A biker gang member, carrying a steel pipe in one hand and not wearing a helmet, yelled as he approached the other side of Dou Tang. He was the one who had just tried to ambush him.
If Dou Tang were an ordinary person, and hadn't dodged that blow, he would have already fallen to the ground, and even with the helmet protecting him, he would have suffered a great loss.
Dou Tang's eyes turned cold.
It seems there's no need to give these people any face.
He reached into his pocket, pulled out a coin, held it between his fingers, and waved it at the man with the steel pipe, saying, "Kid, this is all you deserve."
"Bastard thing!"
Before the biker could even utter his angry curses, Dou Tang had already thrown the coin in his hand, aiming precisely at the tires of the guy's motorcycle.
The hard coin landed right where the tire met the car body, and sparks flew everywhere along with the noise of metal clashing. The biker holding the steel pipe was instantly horrified, and the raging metal beast beneath him had gone out of control.
With its front wheel shattered, the high-speed motorcycle almost instantly lost its balance and tipped over to the ground. The biker gang members, who were not wearing any protective gear, could only watch helplessly as the ground crashed down on them.
"Bang! Bang!"
With a series of teeth-grinding thuds, the biker wielding the steel pipe vanished from sight in an instant. The overturned motorcycle pinned his leg to one side, scraping it a considerable distance across the ground, where, besides metal fragments, there was also blood everywhere—his leg had made intimate contact with the ground.
Even without a fracture, a large layer of flesh will be lost...
"You damned bastard!"
"I'll kill you, KORA!"
The biker gang surrounding Dou Tang hurled insults and roars, some even pulling out weapons from their backs, seemingly wanting to rush up and deliver a vicious blow to Dou Tang.
Dou Tang didn't say anything, but simply took out another coin.
The surrounding sounds suddenly quieted down.
Dou Tang glanced at the bewildered biker gang leader beside him and said, "Headless Dog, huh? You're the new biker gang in Tokyo, aren't you? You've taken in quite a few people from Onigashima, haven't you?"
"You...who are you?!"
"Let's get off the elevated road. Didn't you want my car?" Dou Tang said calmly.
The leader of the headless dogs glanced at Dou Tang again.
He got off the motorcycle. This motorcycle was no ordinary one. Although it wasn't considered expensive, it was extremely valuable to motorcycle enthusiasts, and he desperately wanted it.
Gritting his teeth, he thought to himself that he was now the captain of the Headless Dogs First Squad, a prominent figure in the entire Tokyo biker gang circle. How could he be afraid of a high school student wearing a high school uniform?
In fact, he only dared to cause trouble because Dou Tang was still wearing his high school uniform.
"Alright! You brat... I'll make you regret this once you get down here!"
Seeing the ruthlessness in the eyes of the biker gang member, Dou Tang shook his head in disappointment.
………………
Soon, Dou Tang exited the elevated road and arrived at a somewhat secluded park. Although it wasn't late at night yet, ordinary citizens would have already given way to the menacing appearance of these bikers.
However, Dou Tang could also see several police officers standing at the park entrance, seemingly observing the situation inside the park at any time. If these bikers were just having a gathering, then they wouldn't interfere.
This response is much better than before, probably because the Onijima biker gang's rampage in Tokyo had such a huge impact that police presence around Tokyo has increased recently.
But these people seemed fearless, which puzzled Dou Tang.
Arriving at the most secluded corner of the park, hidden by several walls, Dou Tang got out of the car and looked back.
More than a dozen motorcycles surrounded the area, and the leader was the one called the captain. He was sitting astride his motorcycle with his fists clenched, sneering at Dou Tang: "Kid, you still dare to be so arrogant in our territory. It seems you really don't understand how strong we Headless Dogs are!"
Dou Tang, still wearing his helmet to conceal his face, said, "I really don't know. Why don't you explain it to me? What is a headless dog?"
The contempt and sarcasm in his words were so obvious that the biker gang members were immediately enraged, and a chorus of curses erupted.
Dou Tang looked at these biker gang members and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
Why can't we eradicate these biker gangs? We took down Onigashima, and now another one, Headless Dog, has appeared... Are there really that many delinquents around Tokyo?
Something feels off...
"Ha, how strange! So there are still people in Tokyo who don't know about us Headless Dogs!" The leader of Headless Dogs laughed instead of getting angry, and said, "Then let me tell you the truth! We Headless Dogs are the biker gang that defeated Onigashima and are going to dominate Tokyo!"
...Defeat Onigashima?
Dou Tang's expression under his helmet suddenly became somewhat... strange.
He paused for a long time before saying, "Wasn't the destruction of Onigashima because of that... what's-his-name Kiryu-kun?"
"Hahaha, no way! Although Kiryu-nii is very powerful, no one really thinks he defeated Onigashima all by himself!"
Dou Tang tilted his head: "Judging from what you're saying, you're quite familiar with Kiryu-kun?"
The captain of the headless dogs thumped his chest and declared, "Kiryu-kun is the chief of our headless dogs!"
Dou Tang fell silent again.
"Scared? Alright, kid, leave your car here so we can give you a good thrashing, and we might let you off the hook... considering you have pretty good taste in cars."
Before Dou Tang could speak, Lu Zizhen's voice suddenly came through the earphone.
"Dou Tang, you'd better hurry up and stop playing around."
Dou Tang slowly raised his head, thought for a moment, and finally took off his helmet.
He tossed his hair, and the blue light in his eyes dimmed slightly.
Someone is impersonating him and gathering power; this needs to be investigated thoroughly, but not now.
"I'm sorry... we won't be giving you the bike." He placed the helmet on the seat and stretched his gloved hands.
"And you, you can't leave either... I'm very interested in the headless dog, please tell me more about it."
As he spoke, he slowly walked forward.
"After the fight is over, remember to give my regards to your commander. Tell him that Onigashima is sending his regards and that Onigashima has his eye on him."
A satisfied smile gradually appeared on Dou Tang's face, as if doing something naughty made him very... proud.
Chapter 7: Escape Room Game is Over!
"Clap, clap."
The group walked down the corridor, observing their surroundings.
"Everyone, please look here. This seems to be the old consultation room. I wonder how mental hospitals conducted consultations decades ago. Now, please come in with me and take a look!"
As the senior colleague spoke, he cautiously reached out and touched the white wooden door of the consultation room, but before he could push it open, he quickly withdrew his hand, looking like a coward.
Of course, these are all just personas. As a top streamer, he is still very emotionally intelligent and understands that in this situation, it is appropriate to let Linlin, a streamer specializing in paranormal phenomena, step in.
Linlin laughed and chimed in, "What are you doing, senior? You can't open the door like that!"
As she spoke, she gripped the doorknob and calmly pushed the door open, showing no fear.
The photographer stood by the door and looked into the clinic.
The clinic was a mess, with old tables and chairs scattered haphazardly on the floor, covered in a thick layer of dust that billowed up in the breeze as the door was pushed open.
Overall, there's really nothing to see, but that's okay, the whole paranormal exploration is all about building up the atmosphere step by step.
"It looks ordinary. Shall we go inside and see if there's anything else interesting?"
Linlin walked in as she spoke, followed closely by the others. Once they were fully inside the room, the senior put the flashlight on the table and began searching around.
Huaiyin's focus was different from theirs. She first looked at the ceiling, and then at the floor. Sure enough, although there was a lot of dust, there were some fresh marks on the tables, chairs and the floor.
This place must have been set up before; it seems I've come up empty-handed...
Huaiyin sighed, somewhat disappointed.
"It's alright, little girl, play with them for a bit. You should relax a bit."
Huaiyin nodded: "I understand, Grandpa."
The senior colleague opened a drawer and then let out a strange cry.
The photographer leaned closer and saw that there were several booklets inside, which looked quite old, with yellowed pages.
Placing the booklets on the table, the senior colleague addressed the camera, saying, "Everyone, we seem to have found some medical records! Perhaps we can get some information left over from the past. It seems we're one step closer to unraveling the hospital's past!"
Upon hearing this, the two fans were actually relieved. They realized that this was, after all, a TV show, and the production team must have scouted the location beforehand. These seemingly old booklets were probably props.
When you feel confident, you naturally feel more relaxed.
Only Huaiyin heard some strange sounds.
There were footsteps in the corridor.
The footsteps were very light and careful, but they were very fast, as if someone was jogging in the corridor.
Huaiyin quietly moved closer to the door, but cleverly hid herself in the shadows and did not rush out.
The footsteps are getting closer.
The cameraman near the door also heard the footsteps, turned his head to look, but did not turn the camera around.
"call--"
Suddenly, a cold wind blew by.
"Bang!!!"
A loud bang startled everyone!
The footsteps outside the door suddenly grew louder and gradually faded away!
When everyone turned around, they found that the door had been closed from the outside, completely shut.
At this moment, everyone except the two fans panicked.
The senior and Linlin were quite certain... this wasn't originally planned at all!
Huaiyin squinted and took a few steps back. She was closest to the door and clearly saw what closed it. Although it looked like a person, its face was ashen and its eyes were swollen, so it didn't look like a living person at all.
What it is?
The photographer, still shaken, pushed the door open, only to find it wouldn't budge.
The tall, burly photographer tried to ram the door, but quickly discovered that it wouldn't budge.
“I can’t break through it…” He turned to look at the crowd, his face covered in cold sweat.
The senior photographer panicked and stepped forward to bump into the door along with the two photographers, but even with all three of them together, the seemingly ordinary white wooden door remained completely unmoved.
Linlin panicked a little, took out her phone to check it, and then her face turned ashen: "There's no signal in this building..."
These old buildings built against the mountainside all have the problem of poor signal. It's possible that everyone just happened to come across such a place. Although it was a coincidence, it was undoubtedly another blow.
Two fans huddled in a corner with flashlights, appearing more composed than the two broadcasters.
Just when the group was at their wits' end, the footsteps outside the door returned, pattering as they approached the door.
The senior colleague quickly knocked on the door and said, "Hey! Who's outside! Let us out! Don't play such childish pranks, or we'll call the police!"
The person outside didn't reply, but silently slipped a piece of paper through the crack under the door.
The senior colleague quickly picked up the note, then his expression changed.
“You are now under my surveillance… You must follow my instructions to explore the mental hospital… Only one person can be sent at a time.”
This...this looks so much like an escape room game...but this is much scarier than any game...this isn't some elaborately decorated escape room, but a real mental hospital that's been abandoned for decades.
Not to mention the person outside the door... Who would lie in wait in a place like this for so long and torment the people who come here in such a perverted way?
The senior member swallowed hard, looked back at everyone, and then said to a few fans, "Um, this isn't part of our setup! This isn't part of the show, we're really stuck here... everyone!"
The two fans were incredulous upon hearing this, but before they could accept it, another note was slipped under the door.
The senior colleague quickly picked it up and read aloud, "Now, randomly select one person to go to the operating room on the third floor and find the clues I left behind... The rest of you stay in the room."
It seems that this was a trap set by a pervert hiding in a mental hospital, and the people who came here to record the show just happened to walk into his trap.
"Click."
Before the senior could react, the white door in front of him suddenly opened. He pushed the door open, only to find that there was no one outside.
Only Huaiyin could clearly hear that the bizarre and perverted person who set up the trap had already run away before the door was opened, his voice still so light and nimble.
