"The plane has landed at Ariona Airport, with the current outdoor temperature at 3 and accompanied by continuous rain..."
The flight broadcast proceeded normally.
William Behrens, who was touching the flight attendant’s behind and had cookie crumbs on his lips, imdiately took out his cara to start filming.
Yi Chen had just woken up, his head a bit fuzzy.
He couldn’t quite rember when he fell asleep, and instead of feeling refreshed from sleep, his brain felt groggy and clouded.
"Maybe it’s because the environnt on the plane is so different from that hotel. Next ti, I must go back to rest at that hotel if I get the chance. What was the hotel’s na again? It seems I didn’t even keep the business card."
Yi Chen fumbled around himself but found nothing, just retaining the sense of comfort brought by that unknown hotel in his thoughts.
As he was searching his mory, William was filming over with his handheld cara.
"Don’t film..."
Reaching out to block, his vision briefly locked with the cara lens in a montary ’staring contest.’
A profound mory imdiately surfaced — the mory of this journey, searching for the mysterious videotape for their employer.
The three of them were essentially ordinary people from the bottom of society, desperate in life, coincidentally receiving an invitation from an employer, who had already purchased tickets for them to go together to the area with the highest death rate in Ariona State, to the old house collecting nurous forbidden and mysterious videotapes.
If they could find that tape marked with V/H/S in blood, they would receive a commission of 3 million US dollars.
Yi Chen happened to need this money to treat his mother’s illness.
"Mother..."
As Yi Chen attempted to recall his mother’s gaunt face on the hospital bed, reaching out to stroke his cheek, a strong incongruity struck him imdiately.
He simultaneously felt two emotions: one of wanting to use the money to save his mother, another of wanting to strangle his mother on the hospital bed.
At this mont, the plane began to disembark passengers, with William squeezing out a path with his fat to get ahead.
Yi Chen suddenly shook his head to forget about his mother and hurriedly followed.
As he disembarked, he also noticed the flight attendant’s foot moving, even looking before her foot moved, as if he knew beforehand she would kick.
Pa!
The high heel was caught firmly by Yi Chen’s single hand less than an inch away from William’s back.
The zero-distance eye contact made the flight attendant perspire heavily, quickly apologizing, and even offered a business card, willing to provide private compensation later.
William in the front turned his cara to focus on the business card.
"Nikki, such a nice-sounding na! Mr. Yi, you’re in luck now, so envious... But, we still have to complete our journey before we can accept the invitation."
"How many tis have I told you, stop filming for no reason," Yi Chen was sohow quite irritated by the cara filming.
"It’s all because the employer insists we docunt the entire trip, so we don’t trick him with random tapes."
William had no choice but to move the cara away and point it at himself, forming an oily peace sign.
"By the way, William, weren’t you not this fat before?"
"I’ve always been this fat since living alone at ho after my parents died~ Besides, we only recently t, so why talk about the past?"
Lene, who followed them off the plane, thought similarly, "I also feel like William, you weren’t this chubby before, not sure if it’s another person mixed up."
"Then you must have mistaken for another William, let’s hurry up, don’t waste ti."
William intentionally swept the cara over the two, interference lines appearing on screen seed to affect their brains simultaneously, continuing their journey.
Halfway through the airport corridor, Yi Chen glanced at the restroom beside him, instinctively stopping.
He didn’t intend to use the restroom, but he sensed soone in the group might need to.
Sure enough, Lene held her stomach and ran in.
William seed thrilled, with a perverted look wanting to follow, even opening his mouth wide as if wishing to use it as a squat toilet in the won’s restroom.
Yi Chen subconsciously wanted to stop him, preventing those illegal images from being added to the cara, or the employer might refuse to pay.
But his hand stopped in mid-air,
He didn’t know why he stopped, maybe he was lazy to ddle, or perhaps so subconsciousness made him halt.
William successfully entered the won’s restroom unimpeded and within five seconds, was kicked out, with a muscular cleaning lady standing at the door.
Yi Chen watched silently, as he also disliked this perverted fat man.
His gaze also noticed William’s hand holding the cara, even though he fell, the cara was firmly grasped.
Seeing the lady scold while waving around a mop intending to hit,
William worried about the cara’s potential damage, quickly pressed the shutdown button and closed it, hugging it tightly in his arms.
Sure, here’s the translation:

Buzz...
Heavy rain, country road, and a car.
Yi Chen felt as if in a blink of an eye he went from the airport to the car, gripping the steering wheel, and the mory of the transition seed to be missing.
"Phew~ The experience at the airport was really horrible, lucky I ran away in ti! That old lady was so aggressive, even wanted to call the police.
Now Lene knows I went into the won’s restroom, probably will be disgusted with too~ Never mind, as long as I get the money, I can buy a life-size wife pillow, it’s fine."
William in the passenger seat muttered and moved his cara towards the back seat where Lene was sleeping, drooling uncontrollably.
Hearing William’s words, Yi Chen’s lost mory was completed, recalling how he got from the airport to the car, having been driving for five continuous hours.
"Hey! Mr. Yi, can you slow down a bit? It’s dangerous driving in the rain~ if we get into an accident..."
Before he could finish, Yi Chen pressed the brake to slow down to 60km/h, surprising William who didn’t expect Yi Chen would listen to him.
Not only slowing down, but Yi Chen also heightened his attention, feeling sothing dangerous might happen.
"Danger! There’s soone ahead!"
Before William could shout, Yi Chen had already stepped on the brake.
No sound of collision ca, there stood an unadorned elderly man in the middle of the road, over five ters from the car’s front.
The man made no moves, didn’t even turn his head, just shuffled towards the side of the road.
William rolled down the window, ready to curse but found the old man had disappeared, leaving a new path in the direction he went.
"Hmm! There’s a road here~ seems like a shortcut to the destination, quite lucky! Mr. Yi, drive on, I want to catch up to that old man and curse him out!"
The vehicle drove along the small road quickly arriving in front of a cabin.
"Where did that old geezer go? Never mind, finding the videotape is the priority, but this door won’t open. Mr. Yi, can you get in from the Second Floor?"
Yi Chen had already seen the light on the Second Floor, intending to jump up but his body made no corresponding move.
"This place is too eerie, moving together might be better."
"True, thinking back, that old man was really weird! You guys go ahead, I’ll film from behind."
William said he’d go last, but the cara mostly pointed at Lene’s rear.
Click!
The three successfully entered the dusty basent through the skylight.
"Phew~ Finally snuck in, here cos my three million!"
William excitedly entered the first-floor hall of the cabin, although it seed empty, there was a feeling of being watched, shadows of bare figures occasionally slipping through corridors.
The three continued up the stairs to the Second Floor, a weak glow from a TV ca through a bedroom door crack facing the stairs.
William, initially leading, paused, "Hey! Mr. Yi, move quietly, you open the door~ if the hoowner is inside, your skills are better to handle it, I need to record everything."
"Mm."
Yi Chen slowly pushed open the bedroom door, a huge pile of videotapes ca into view, with a TV inside playing a tape.
The first to enter, Yi Chen saw the TV image.
Don’t look!
Even though instinct warned him not to stare at the screen, his eyes wouldn’t move, his head completely rigid.
It was as if countless cables sprouted from the TV back, locking his head and fitting him with an eye fixation device.
The deadly sensation seeped through his body from the TV image,
Yi Chen knew clearly he was trapped, and surviving was unlikely, his hands following the screen gouged out his eyes.
As his body fell heavily, his thought remained.
He rembered the purpose of this mission, but couldn’t understand why he hated his mother yet risked undertaking this task? There seed to be a logical flaw.
Buzz!
Consciousness sank into a dark quagmire, everything erased.
The plane’s landing announcent awoke him, his groggy brain felt like a leaden ball.
"Don’t film..."
Reflexively raising a hand to block William fiddling with the cara beside him, Yi Chen then said one more thing.
"William, where did you get that cara from?"
