Chapter 0421 – Five Passages
The sculpture used to be related to the Weird Tales Association, but now it was Chen Ge’s ghost.
Hurriedly running into the middle of the underground scene, Chen Ge pushed open the door to the wife’s room in the one-star scene.
The ugly sculpture stood beside the bed, those eyes staring lifelessly at a certain place in the room, and no one knew what it had actually experienced.
”How did Old Zhou and the others persuade it? How come it feels so much more emaciated?”
Chen Ge walked next to the sculpture and took out Yan Danian’s comic book, “The real culprit who killed you has been found by me, as long as you are willing to become my employee, then even if I lay down my life, I will go and take revenge for you.”
The sculpture didn’t understand Chen Ge’s words, but it could clearly feel its body swaying slightly, as if its mood had changed in some way.
”Your murderer is hiding deep in the underground corpse vault, it’s very dangerous there, if you can join me in my haunted house, then I’ll bring all of my staff with me right now to seek justice for you.” Chen Ge’s was fully armed and his tone was firm, one could hear that he wasn’t joking, but was really prepared to go over there.
The sculpture felt that something wasn’t quite right, but after it used its ability, it realized that Chen Ge’s words held true and wasn’t deceiving it.
”I will avenge you, tonight I will go to the underground corpse vault and catch the real culprit behind the scene who has hurt you.”
The sculpture’s ugly face looked at Chen Ge, tears of blood could be vaguely seen seeping out of his eyes, Chen Ge was telling the truth, he was really prepared to bring all of his employees with him tonight to fight for his life in the dangerous underground corpse vault.
”Come with me, you’re more familiar with that place, if you can help me, it’ll be a lot easier tonight.”
The sculpture was a bit scared, it actually didn’t want to go back to the underground corpse vault too much, it was hard for outsiders to visualize the horror of that place, but it couldn’t refuse Chen Ge’s offer.
The man in front of him was willing to risk his life to go to such a horrible place in order to help it understand its heart’s desire, which made a trace of warmth surge through its cold heart.
Seeing that the padding was almost done, Chen Ge flipped open Yan Dainian’s comic book, “Come in, when we get to the place, I still have a lot of things to question you about.”
The sculpture had spent a few years in the underground corpse vault, it was very familiar with the place, which was one of the reasons why Chen Ge made sure to bring the sculpture with him.
The blood flow in the eyes stopped flowing, the sculpture’s ugly face slowly changed shape, the face that symbolized truth gradually softened, and finally a girl who was over one meter seven tall surfaced in front of the sculpture.
This girl looked three or four points similar to Ma Ying, very quiet, seems to be the reason of family genetics, they are both very tall.
After the girl left the sculpture, she directly drilled into Yan Dainian’s comic book, and an additional female sculpture appeared on the blank page.
This sculpture was sad, painful, and filled with betrayal and despair.
”The sculpture ghost is also willing to help, the probability of completing the mission tonight has increased quite a bit.” Chen Ge left the “Wife’s Room” and entered Twilight Sun Middle School again, including the boy who reeked of stench and the man who stood and hung himself in the comic book.
”When the completion of the third sick building trial quest exceeded ninety percent, I was rewarded with a set of psychiatric case sheets, each of which had the soul of a lunatic on it, should I take them with me as well?”
Those lunatics were originally members of the Weird Tales Association, and they were still dominated by madness after their deaths, Chen Ge usually didn’t dare to use them casually.
”Bring them with you, at least it’s considered one of my bottom cards.” Chen Ge pondered for a moment and stuffed the pages of case sheets into his backpack, “When the president of the Weird Talk Association sees all of his members standing with me, he’ll probably be so angry that he’ll vomit blood.”
Chen Ge also felt that he had gone a bit too far, not only had he inherited all of the association’s legacy, but he had also incorporated the former “members” as well.
”In the past, the Weird Talk Association did things that were too crazy, if I become the president, I will definitely change all of this. Make them repent and get true redemption.”
Carrying his bag and a skull-crushing hammer, Chen Ge had just walked out of the House of Horrors, and before the door could be closed, Li Zheng’s phone call came over.
”After Dr. Gao disappeared, Gao Ruxue’s mood is very unstable, she seems to know something, you immediately go over and get in touch with Gao Ruxue, try to ask something.”
”Brother Zheng, I have other things to do tonight, I’m afraid I won’t be able to stay for long, why don’t you guys try to get someone else to talk to Gao Ruxue?”
”It can only be you.” Li Zheng said decisively, “On the day she was targeted by the eye gouge murderer, we went through her cell phone, and she was on the phone with you for the entire day, I’m not sure what kind of relationship you guys have, but I know that the relationship between you guys is definitely not ordinary. Chen Ge, I hope that you can stick to your principles in the face of right and wrong.”
Hearing this Chen Ge realized that Li Zheng and the others should have misunderstood.
That day, Gao Ruxue’s cell phone was controlled by the cell phone ghost, everyone else’s phone could get through, only his own couldn’t get through, Gao Ruxue kept calling herself just because she was curious and uneasy.
”Okay, I’ll go over right now.”
From Li Zheng’s mouth, Chen Ge learned that Gao Ruxue was now living alone in the middle of Dr. Gao’s psychological clinic, and that she didn’t dare to go back to school to live with her roommate, nor was she willing to go back to the Qixia Lake community.
Taking a taxi to Dr. Gao’s clinic, Chen Ge got out of the car and realized that the clinic is very close to the Jiujiang Academy of Forensic Sciences.
There were plainclothes people on the streets watching Gao Ruxue twenty-four hours a day, and that person had recognized Chen Ge when he got out of the car.
The other person was surprised by Chen Ge’s outfit, and his eyes lingered on the white cat in Chen Ge’s arms for a long time before he finally decided to obey his superior’s orders and take the initiative to contact Chen Ge.
The plainclothes man told Chen Ge something about Gao Ruxue’s recent situation, then gave him a recording pen and left.
Tapping lightly on the door of her room, after a long time, Gao Ruxue opened the door.
She didn’t seem to have rested well last night, and looked very tired without a bit of spirit.
”Chen Ge? What are you doing here?”
”I heard that you’ve been sad lately and was a bit worried about you.” Chen Ge was carrying a big heavy bag, his tone was slightly stiff, and to avoid embarrassment, he picked up the white cat with both hands, “Do you like cats?”
With its furry little head and heterochromatic pupils, the white cat looked at Chen Ge with a confused expression.
The white cat’s “cute” expression made Gao Ruxue feel a little better, she reached out and stroked the white cat’s head, making way: “I’m fine, come in, do you want something to drink?”
Gao Ruxue had been alone for a long time and wanted to talk to someone, she just didn’t know who to go to.
”No need.”
Chen Ge followed Gao Ruxue into Dr. Gao’s office, the most things placed in the room were books, all kinds of books, many of which were out of print that could not be searched online.
”Dr. Gao likes reading so much?”
”En, he doesn’t have many hobbies, other than reading books he likes to collect some strange artifacts.” Gao Ruxue brewed two cups of coffee and brought it over.
Chen Ge took the coffee and took a small sip, and after half a day of rambling, he pretended to ask inadvertently, “Speaking of which, we’ve known each other for a long time, but it seems like I’ve never heard you call Dr. Gao your father, and it always feels like the two of you are a bit separated.”
Gao Ruxue herself was that kind of cold character, she wasn’t deliberately targeting anyone, it might just be because of certain experiences that made her like this.
And those things that she had experienced were what Chen Ge wanted to figure out the most this time when he came over.
After hearing Chen Ge’s words, Gao Ruxue didn’t open her mouth right away, she looked at the coffee in her cup, and only after a long time did she say a secret that had been pressed in her heart for a long time.
”A few years ago, a patient had an accident during treatment and his condition suddenly deteriorated, I don’t know if it was because of the medication or my father’s treatment method that went wrong. That person went crazy and jumped off the balcony halfway through the treatment.”
”At that time my father didn’t have his own clinic, he was treating patients at home, my family lived on the eighth floor.”
”The patient jumped off the building, the patient’s family was definitely unwilling, we explained, compensation, moving, tried all sorts of ways but could not.”
”My father was under tremendous pressure during that time, but fortunately he had the support of his mother.”
”I thought this was just a threshold for my family, and it would be fine if we crossed it, but who knew that the impact of this incident was getting bigger and bigger.”
”The sick family ran to the hospital, wanting to seek justice, my father was blocked in the office, the situation is still deteriorating.”
”My mother was worried about my father and took a taxi to the hospital, only to have an accident on the way.”
”The phone was not answered, my father then met my mother in the hospital, only ……”
Gao Ruxue held the cup with both hands, her voice was very low, she was like an abandoned toy doll full of scars: “Resuscitation was ineffective, mother eventually left us, father kept himself locked into the house during that period of time, it was as if he had closed himself off completely.”
”He didn’t want to communicate with the outside world, and I could sometimes hear him whispering his mother’s name in the middle of the night when I passed by outside his room.”
”From that time on, father seemed like a different person.”
”He began to do some very unusual things, often going out late at night at twelve o’clock with a mishmash of the smell of blood and formalin.”
”As my mother was being prepared for burial, he did another appalling thing; he stole her body.”
”I’m the only one who knows about this, I asked him about it once, but he was like a different person, I’ll never forget that look in his eyes at that moment.”
”Despair, sadness, and a kind of madness that burned everything.”
”Mother’s body disappeared, and about a month passed before father returned to normal, his gaze was deep, as if he couldn’t look into the bottom of the ocean, and all the negativity disappeared.”
”He became more mature than before, as if nothing in this world could hinder him.”
”Other people thought he had come out of his grief and regained hope in life, only I knew that he had hidden the deepest pain in his heart.”
”The calmer he acted, the more tormented he was inside.”
”Since then, my father rarely appeared at night, he worked during the day and would go out alone at night, and from that time on, I felt like I had become a person.”
Gao Ruxue had held these words in her heart for a long time, and it was the first time she had ever told anyone.
Chen Ge had saved her life at a critical moment and pulled her back from the death line, so she was grateful and trusted Chen Ge.
”I work during the day and go out at night, and I’m still in high spirits every day.” Chen Ge felt that Dr. Gao’s situation was very similar to his own, and he pondered in his heart that Dr. Gao might have also been affected by the severe ghosts that’s why she became like this.
Gao Ruxue finished her story, she was a bit tired and curled up on the sofa.
Chen Ge didn’t disturb Gao Ruxue, the girl in front of her didn’t seem to have realized that her father had disappeared, she spent the whole night alone as usual, and his father wouldn’t come back anyway.
Looking at the time, Chen Ge found a blanket from the room next to her to cover Gao Ruxue, then gently carried the white cat and left.
When the sound of the door closing sounded, Gao Ruxue, who had originally fallen asleep, slowly opened her eyes.
She touched the blanket on her body and looked towards the door of the room that had already closed.
……
After coming out of the clinic, Chen Ge directly rushed to the Jiujiang Forensic Medicine College on foot, he wanted to enter the core area of the underground corpse vault before twelve midnight.
On the way, Chen Ge made another call to Li Zheng to report on Dr. Gao’s situation, then he stopped caring about these things and prepared to go all out to complete this trial mission.
The Underground Corpse Vault was different from the three-star horror scene that he had encountered before, it was well-preserved and its strength hadn’t been cut in any way, so Chen Ge didn’t dare to be the slightest bit careless.
He didn’t directly enter the Jiujiang Forensic Medical College through the main gate, but instead circled around to the west gate, and according to the Tension Map, the real entrance to the Underground Corpse Vault was in the West Campus.
Compared to the other several campus gates, this place was very cold and quiet, and there wasn’t even a single vendor around.
Chen Ge looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, and then avoided the surveillance and rolled directly into the school.
”It’s now nine o’clock at night, I still have three hours.”
Although the streetlights were also lit in the West Campus, it was obviously less popular compared to the other several campuses.
Chen Ge walked amongst the grass on the side of the road, sticking to the school fence, recalling the map in his head, and slowly approaching the entrance to the underground corpse vault.
The West Campus was the largest of the several campuses in terms of area, and there were two experimental buildings and several buildings with unclear functions, though most of them were sealed off and inaccessible.
Continuing forward, there seemed to be three security guards patrolling in the distance, and they were so far away that even with Yin pupils, Chen Ge could only see a rough outline.
”Why do these three security guards keep stopping there?”
The map marked out, there are five channels that can enter the underground corpse vault, the three security guards are guarding the main door of the corpse vault, when Zhang Li they went in to expand the road is this road.
Two of the remaining four passages lead to the two experimental buildings, one leads to the abandoned teaching building, and one is an emergency safety passage, to prevent danger underground, this emergency passage leads directly to the outside of the school.
The security guards blocked the main entrance, Chen Ge could only enter through the other channels, and he went around to the laboratory on the left.
Pushing open the window, Chen Ge jumped inside, and before he could walk out far, he saw a glass container on a shelf not far away, in which something similar to a human head was immersed.
”I think I heard Liu Xianxian talk about this thing, when she secretly followed Liu Zhe, she found Liu Zhe in the middle of the lab, talking to the human head in the glass jar.”
