Chapter 0335 – Wu Fei
”Ever since I met that person, everything has gone off track, there’s no way this is all a coincidence.”
The 10th of the Weird Tales Association looked at the place where Chen Ge had fled, his face was hidden amongst the black robes, no one could see his expression at this moment.
”Who’s to say?” The black-robed man next to Number Ten smiled, “There’s something else I forgot to tell you, but it should be too late now.”
”Forget it if it’s bad news, I’m tired of hearing it lately.” Ten’s five fingers pressed hard and the wooden box in his palm rattled softly.
”When I used a double ghost to escape the Fang Hua Yuan neighborhood a few days ago, I was discovered by that man.”
”I warned you long ago not to do anything superfluous.” Ten twisted his head, his voice was hoarse and hard to hear, even when he talked to the people around him, he still used a fake voice.
”You’re wrong, that double ghost died a valuable death, I gained a very crucial piece of information from him.” The black-robed man’s voice contained a smile, even if he was surrounded by ghosts, he wasn’t worried at all.
”What intelligence?”
”The door in his haunted house, it seems that no one has entered it yet, which means that the door pusher has already left, and now that door is in a state of no owner.”
”The door pusher has left? He’s not the one who pushed the door?” Ten’s tone changed significantly, and it took a second or two for it to return to normal, “Why are you only telling me now about something so important?”
”The red dress in that guy’s shadow doesn’t have to be weaker than the female ghost in this village, the difficulty is similar, that’s why I haven’t told you.” Mentioning the female ghost in Chen Ge’s shadow, the black-robed man finally tightened his smile as he looked somewhat doubtfully in the direction Chen Ge had left, “But the few details he unintentionally exposed just now make me think that this is an opportunity.”
The black-robed voice became even colder, “None of the people we sent out to surround and kill him have returned, and all of the severe ghosts should have been swallowed by the red clothes amongst his shadows as well.”
He took a breath and twisted his head to look at Number Ten, “Including the devil’s two red-clothed children.”
Number Ten instantly understood the black robe’s words, “Devils who swallow an excessive amount will fall into a deep sleep, but no stern ghost dares to swallow so much at once. Have you ever thought of another possibility, the devil’s two children might have been made into ghost puppets, and the red-robed stern ghost in his shadow might not have fallen into slumber as well, this is just a trap he laid, wanting to intentionally lure us in.”
”That’s also right, with his character he would indeed do such a thing.” The black-robed man’s mouth made a teeth-grinding sound, “Actually, I’m quite envious of him, this guy who is cunning, sinister, and brutal in his bones, but also manages to disguise himself as a harmless human being, and live in the sunlight in all its splendor.”
Regarding Chen Ge, the black-robed man gave a high evaluation.
Number Ten nodded lightly, extremely agreeing with the black-robed man’s opinion, “The enemy is too cunning, so one has to be a bit cautious. I actually wanted to make a move on him, but as you saw just now, Xiong Qing suddenly paused when he was about to kill him. The only thing that can affect Red Clothes is Red Clothes, and regardless of whether the Red Clothes in his shadow are asleep or not, there’s at least one Red Clothes hidden in this guy!”
”But are you willing to give up? If we can control them all, then we can directly obtain the two ‘doors’.” What the black robe said was very tempting.
”It’s not a matter of willingness.” Ten coldly glanced at Black Robe, “Just a few days ago, there were still twelve people in the association, but how many are left now?”
The answer surfaced in Black Robe’s mind, he was silent for a while and stopped speaking.
”Twelve members of the association, now there are only three left, and he did all this in less than five days. That’s why it’s not too much to say that one can’t be too careful with this person.” Number ten’s heart was dripping blood, each of these numbers represented a living human life, a “patient” that they had managed to sift through countless ordinary people.
”Then we’ll still follow the original plan.”
”Let’s start, there might be other changes later on.”
”Good.” The black-robed man moved his neck, he didn’t bother about the ghost babies and Xiong Qing who were fighting in the distance, nor did he care about the ghosts and monsters that were frantically attacking, and walked towards the water well alone.
”Jiang Ling, have your sister stop him!” The woman surnamed Zhu opened her mouth, and Jiang Ling, who was hiding behind her, shouted her sister’s name into the air, and after a while, Zhu Xinrou, who was covered in wounds, rushed towards the black-robed man.
”Since I dared to walk out, do you think I would be afraid of you?” The laughter from the black-robed man’s mouth grew louder and louder as the black robe on his back was lifted, and a blood-red, human-faced monster surfaced!
”I never thought I was smart, it’s just that everyone around me is too stupid.” He raised his hand and pointed towards Zhu Xinru, and the monster covered in faces blocked in front of Zhu Xinru.
Chen Ge, who was far away, saw this scene and his heart trembled, “The Weird Talk Association even has a red coat!”
He had heard what the black-robed man had said earlier and had a rough guess as to this person’s identity.
This black-robed man who had conjured up a new red coat was most likely Wu Fei from the third sick building.
Jiang Ling’s sister was injured herself, and she was still facing a red coat that was several times more terrifying than the long and thin demonic shadow this time, so the outcome of the battle was already predetermined from the very beginning.
Both Wu Fei and the devil were the most dangerous patients in the third sickbay, and the ghosts and monsters on both of them had also reached the level of Red Coat.
No one could stop the black-robed man as he walked to the edge of the well and looked inside. Then he took out another wooden box from his arms and opened the lid, revealing the black blood stains inside.
After a few minutes, no change appeared in the well water, the black-robed man smiled slightly, “No red clothes can remain calm in front of this bloodstain, just like what I speculated before, that female ghost has long since disappeared from the well!”
Putting away the wooden box, the black-robed man twisted his head to look at the woman surnamed Zhu, “If she is not in the well, then where would she run to?”
The black-robed man’s gaze was grim, giving off the feeling as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake, he slowly walked towards the sacrificial procession, behind him, the red-robed man with a full face had already completely suppressed Zhu Xinru, the two sides were not at all at the same level.
”We have been investigating this village since half a year ago, the female ghost is not in the well, you have been deceiving those villagers all along.” The black robe looked at the woman surnamed Zhu, his eyes seemed to be like knives, able to pierce directly into the heart, in front of him there was no way to hide anything.
Hearing that the female ghost was not in the well, the first to open their mouths were those villagers next to them who were physically deformed, each one of them was dumbfounded, and then the anger of being deceived was born in their hearts.
One of the villagers wanted to question the Zhu woman, but before he could open his mouth, he was dragged away by the face-covered red dress.
”I don’t like it when someone interrupts me.” The black-robed voice became even colder as he walked over to the woman surnamed Zhu, “You must know where the female ghost in the well went? Right?”
