Chapter 27: Interviews
About ten minutes after entering the mission world.
The bumpy feeling stopped, the car stopped, and Lin Zhao, who was closing his eyes and recuperating and thinking carefully about the plot of "Graveyard Encounter", opened his eyes.
"Emotional fluctuations detected, the psionic camera's psionic energy is increased by 20!"
"Emotional fluctuations detected, psionic camera psionic value increased by 8!"
"Emotional fluctuations detected, psionic camera psionic energy plus 10!"
"Emotional fluctuations detected, psionic camera psionic energy plus 5!"
"Emotional fluctuations detected, psionic camera psionic value increases by 1!"
"Guys! We're here, get out of the car and get ready to shoot! ”
Lance's face was filled with joy.
For a person who loves paranormal events and documentaries, just starting the preparations is enough to excite them.
Lin Zhao looked at the expressions of the others, all of them were a little excited, but they didn't reach the level of Lance.
Lin Zhao could probably guess that the 20 psionic points were from Lance, and the 8, 10, and 5 psionic values were from the other three, as for the last 1 psionic value......
Lin Zhao tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled gregariously.
Then he got out of the car with the crowd, walked at the end, carried the camera on his shoulder, and began to play the role of a photographer.
In fact, Lin Zhao rarely comes into contact with this kind of professional equipment, but fortunately, the system seems to transmit some relevant knowledge to his brain, so although he is not very skilled when fiddling with the video equipment, there is nothing wrong in the process.
......
"Hello everyone! The place where we filmed today was – Collingwood Mental Hospital! ”
On the road, Lance, who has a thin beard on his chin, spreads his arms, smiles and a little excitement, and talks eloquently in front of the camera.
Behind him is an old building that looks like it's full of age.
"Collingwood Mental Hospital covers a vast area, with a total area of more than 80 acres and a total of 6 buildings, and this old building standing behind me now is one of them!"
"According to reliable statistics, between 1895 and 1960, more than 80,000 mentally ill people were admitted to the hospital!"
"By 1963, Collingwood Psychiatric Hospital was closed due to rumors of haunting."
Lance's voice was slightly lowered, and his expression was a little more mysterious and curious about the unknown.
"I've heard that a lot of things move on their own! One could also hear what appeared to be a howl from a sick person. ”
At this point, Lance turned around and waved his hand, signaling the camera to follow him.
So the camera turned, and a black iron door filled the screen.
The iron door was locked with a large lock, and the surface was spray-painted with a sentence -
"Death is waiting for you!"
Lance pretended to be frightened as he pronounced the big line, then quietly pointed to the iron door with his finger, put the back of his hand on his cheek, and added in a low voice, "It seems that there is something really strange here." ”
"Now let's find out a little bit else!"
Lance strode forward and found a few interviewers he had contacted beforehand.
The first was a local historian named Morgan.
"Collingwood Psychiatric Hospital was founded in ...... A certain director of a psychiatric hospital named Arthur. Frank, a graduate of a prestigious university, once used patients as experiments, performed more than 140 lobe surgeries, and was finally stabbed to death by a patient who escaped......"
"There is such a terrible thing as brain-opening experiments!"
Bidding farewell to historian Morgan, Lance had a look of surprise on his face.
"Could the rumored howls that always sound in the middle of the night be these poor patients who have died here and can only wander in secret?"
......
"My construction team used to work there."
"Some guys heard some strange noises, and a lot of tools were missing."
The steward of the construction team recalled.
......
"I was repairing something, and I was standing on a ladder, and then I suddenly fell down."
"I've told a lot of people about it, I swear, I really felt like I was being pushed by something, but I turned my head and saw nothing
The man in the camera spoke sincerely, but in the end, his tone became less firm, just remembering bad memories, and there was a touch of fear on his face.
"Emotional fluctuations detected, psionic camera psionic energy plus 10!"
Listening to the system prompt sound ringing in his head, Lin Zhao shook his head in his heart.
It's a pity that this guy doesn't know that something really pushed him, otherwise how could he add 80 psionic value.
......
"That night, as usual, we were standing in the hallway, when suddenly we saw a man in a white hospital gown with shaved hair."
A young couple stood in the hallway where they had seen the bald sick figure, and the girl looked to the other end of the hallway with trepidation.
.......
The last interviewer was a newly hired gardener.
"Well, what's the supernatural event? Well, I don't know very much, but I've just been working here. ”
After the gardener answered, he looked down at the sprinkler in his hand, ready to start watering the flowers in the next second.
"Click it first!"
Lance motioned for Lin Zhao to turn off the camera, Lin Zhao nodded, but didn't do so, the camera was still aimed at the two who were talking.
"Man, give you 20, can you recite a paragraph in front of the camera as I said?"
Lance familiarly pulled out a bill.
"Okay then."
With little hesitation, the gardener agreed.
"Okay, keep shooting!"
Lance clapped his hands, and Lin Zhao also gave him an OK gesture.
But in reality, he didn't do anything for two minutes, just stood with the camera on his shoulder.
"I often hear women crying at night, and occasionally I see women in white dresses walking by in the hallway."
The gardener has a good memory and memorizes the lines perfectly, but from the expression, it is not as real as the previous interviewer.
But anyway, viewers who watch supernatural documentaries won't pay much attention to these details, and some people may feel satisfied just by hearing "women crying" and "women in white dresses in the corridors".
Lance silently compared in his heart, it is true that he likes to shoot supernatural documentaries, but everyone wants to make money, there are no gimmicks, and his documentaries can't sell for a good price, besides, it's not all fake.
After the interview, it was time for the on-site visit.
Lance pulled over to an elderly man in a plaid shirt and yellow coat with half-white hair and a white beard.
"This is the current administrator of Collingwood Psychiatric Hospital - Kenny!"
Kenny pulls out the key and unlocks the door that locks the asylum.
The crowd pushed open the door and came to the lobby on the first floor.
There was a long corridor of the ward on either side of the hall, and at first glance, it was only dark and dark, and it was impossible to count how many rooms there were.
Due to its age and disrepair, many of the walls inside the psychiatric hospital have peeled off a large piece of wall skin.
There is still a lot of graffiti left on the wall.
The staircase to the second floor faces the doorway.
Lance and his party walk up to the second floor and focus the camera on Kenny.
He's going to do an interview with Kenny as well.
“...... Actually, I don't believe in ghosts, but after I've encountered strange events, I always feel that there is more than one person here......"
At first, Kenny is still stiff in front of the camera, but Lance asks him to talk about work, and when Kenny gets used to it, he starts talking about the strange events he has encountered.
"At night, I can often hear the sound of water pipes and construction......
