Chapter 550: 550

The soil at the ceiling continued to peel . This place appeared very unsafe, like it could fall at any moment . With no other discovery, Chen Ge prepared to leave .

The door that connects both worlds often appears for a minute after midnight . I wonder if this door retains that property . Perhaps I can find the time to come back to look .

The police had sealed the door and did not discover the secret of the door . It was probably because they had missed the opening . After all, the police had regular working hours, and no one would go back to the crime scene for no reason at midnight .

Calling Xu Yin, Chen Ge exited the tunnel, closed the door, and replaced the closet . Looking at the art pieces inside the room, and thinking about the dolls’ clothes inside the iron cage, Chen Ge’s mood began complicated .

Despair is something natural, and life is already hard enough . Why are they doing something as meaningless as this?

Chen Ge checked the room again, but he came up with nothing . He jumped out from the window and then closed the window that had lost the glass .

I’ve completed the mission for The Hearse, returned the e-bike, and inspected the secret room at Jiang Long’s place—that’s everything that I set out to do . Guess it’s time to go home .

Looking at the time, Chen Ge realized that it was 3 am, the time when the night was darkest .

I’d better drive the bus back before the sun comes up . If I run into any traffic police, so much trouble will follow .

The black phone had said that it was best to use the hearse after midnight on a rainy night . Chen Ge remembered that closely—he did not want the police to tow his bus on his first day on the road .

Fan Chong’s home was on the top floor . Chen Ge found it too troublesome to climb up again, so he used the phone to call Fan Chong down instead . The phone rang once before it was answered . “Brother, why did you break the man’s window! Didn’t you say you just wanted to go take a look?”

“I checked the surroundings—there was no surveillance . ” As Chen Ge stood by the building, the rain began to ease up .

“No, how is that related to surveillance?”

“I also wanted to clear the murder case; the family of the victim need their justice . And most importantly, the murderer is still on the loose, and new victims might soon appear . Think about it, you’re living in this type of danger every day, aren’t you afraid? Furthermore, if I break one piece of glass to save one or more lives, compared to human lives, is a simple pane of glass more important?”

Fan Chong did not know how to counter Chen Ge . He thought about it and somewhat agreed with the man .

“By the way, before I cracked the glass, I ended the call, so how did you find out about that?” Chen Ge was one who paid attention to details . It was the reason he had managed to survive so many Trial Missions .

“I’ve been watching you from upstairs . If something happened to you, I was ready to call the police . “

When Fan Chong said that, Chen Ge lifted his head to look up . The room that was on the leftmost side on the opposite building had a faded light coming from the window . Fan Chong was standing next to the window, and he held the phone in his hand . When he saw Chen Ge look up, he even waved at him .

“Boss Chen, I’m really impressed . You dared to jump into a cursed home at 2 am,” Fan Chong said and waited, but there was no reply from Chen Ge . He looked down . Chen Ge had the phone beside his ear, but the man looked petrified . He stood where he was with his head titled upward .

“Boss Chen? Why aren’t you saying anything?” Fan Chong noticed the anomaly about Chen Ge, and he started to panic . “Don’t scare me! Are you alright? F*ck! I told you not to go to that place already!”

“Stop talking for now . ” Chen Ge’s voice came from the phone . Perhaps it was psychological, but Fan Chong felt that Chen Ge’s voice seemed different from before .

“What’s wrong?”

“Maintain your posture and remember, do not turn back no matter what happens!”

This was the first time that Fan Chong had heard Chen Ge use such a stern tone, and he promised quickly . “Okay, I will not turn back . “

He said so, but his heart could not resist the urge to turn back . Fan Chong felt a chill run up his spine, crawling right up to his brain .

“Boss Chen, is there something behind me?”

“You’re fine . Now use your hand that is holding the phone and slowly reach behind you . “

“Like this?”

“Yes, go a bit further . Perfect . Maintain that posture, don’t move . ” Chen Ge stood under the building, and his eyes were narrowed as he kept his gaze on Fan Chong’s room . The weak light came from inside the room, and Fan Chong stood at the window . He gripped his pajamas with one hand, and his other held the phone that he had extended behind him . Not far away from his phone was a girl in a red shirt .

The black hair fell on the red shirt . The girl did not have any clear facial features but several dark holes . She had no eyes, nose, or teeth . Her limbs were covered by the shirt . There was no way of telling her age, appearance, or height . Everything about her about was a mystery .

“Red Specter…”

“Red? Boss Chen, what’s going on? Don’t scare me! I promise that I will not tell anyone about your trespassing!”

“Stop talking! Let me try to communicate with her . ” Chen Ge arranged his thoughts . The Red Specter that had suddenly appeared in Fan Chong’s room was probably Xiao Bu . Chen Ge already had the suspicion that the child was hiding at the deepest part of the game .

“All the children in the game are called Xiao Bu, and all the tragedies happened to Xiao Bu—there has to be a reason for that . ” Chen Ge took up the phone and stated his stance . “Don’t act recklessly . What do you want? What do you desire? You can tell me . “

In the bedroom, neither Fan Chong nor the Red Specter behind him moved . Time seemed to have stopped . Realizing that the girl did not have any intention of harming Fan Chong, Chen Ge continued . “I have not experienced your pain before, so I cannot say I can understand you fully, but I beg you to give me a chance . Perhaps we can sit down together and talk this out . “

Fan Chong’s body was shaking . He listened to Chen Ge on the phone and felt like either he had gone mad or Chen Ge had gone insane . “Brother, who are you talking to?”

Chen Ge ignored Fan Chong . He would not dare stay in the same room with a Red Specter without help, but Fan Chong had done that .

“I’ve seen many children like you, or perhaps their experience was nothing compared to yours, but with my help, they found a new direction in life . ” Chen Ge had played Xiao Bu’s game before . He looked through his backpack and found an old phone and called out the phone spirit, Tong Tong .

“Can you see the boy beside me? His story is included in that game, so you should know about him . I helped him fulfilled his wish and helped punish those who hurt him . You can ask him to confirm these details . ” The phone spirit understood what he was supposed to do . He nodded and tried to smile, but probably because he had not smiled for a long time, the smile was rather ugly .

Listening to Chen Ge, Fan Chong looked at the empty space next to Chen Ge . “What do you mean? How come there’s another one? How many people are in my room?”

The girl seemed to have met Tong Tong before . She tilted her head to the side . After a moment of consideration, she lifted her sleeve . There was no hand . One could only see her sleeve wave several times at the window .

Minutes later, blood started to leak on Fan Chong’s window, and the blood slithered to form words .

“You will die if you come back to Li Wan City . ”
