Chapter 0456 – Three Doors
The scalpel fell to the ground with a crunching sound, Dr. Gao covered his heart, and the black threads under his eyes popped up again as his life drained away little by little.
”The stronger the resentment in the body of the person pushing the door before death, the more terrifying the severe ghosts they become after death, I started cultivating the world behind the door five years ago, filling every inch of this place with blood and despair, for this day.” Dr. Gao hugged his wife in his arms, “There is a limit to human strength, and I’ve already touched the limit, if I want to find her, I must have a stronger power to do so.”
”So you had the idea of becoming a Knight Spirit five years ago?”
”Remnant soul, Knight Ghost, Red Clothes, these years I have also been thinking about what exactly is above Red Clothes, maybe by reaching that step, I can do what I want to go and do.” The black threads under Dr. Gao’s eyes had begun to go uncontrollable, and he was about to be unable to suppress them, “Chen Ge, in the last period of time that I can still stay awake, I want to make a deal with you.”
”You still want me to help you revive your wife?”
”It’s another thing that won’t go against your own will.”
”Speak.” Dr. Gao was in a very wrong state, and Chen Ge didn’t know what this madman would go and do next, so it was better to agree to the other party’s request first.
”You should be able to notice that many of the numbers in the Weird Tales Association are related to the number three when you come out of the third sickbay, and this number is very special to me. It represents Ward Three of the Third Ward Building, the three people I carry in my heart, and also the three doors owned by the Weird Tales Association.”
”Three doors?!” Chen Ge sucked in his breath, ever since he started dealing with the Weird Talk Association, he had always thought that the other side possessed two doors, but he had never thought that they possessed a third door in addition to the Underground Corpse Vault and the Third Ward Building.
”That door is in the eastern suburb of Liwan Town, a door that is completely out of control.” Dr. Gao’s body was shivering as threads of despair and negative emotions swam through his body, “One-third of the things that the Weird Tales Association has accumulated over the past five years are behind that door, and I can give you all of those things.”
”Are you kidding? That door is out of control, even if there are goodies buried inside, I’ll have to be able to come out alive after I get it.” Dr. Gao’s willingness to give away the underpinnings that the Weird Tales Association had accumulated over the past five years made Chen Ge a bit tempted, but the other party’s remark that the door had gone completely out of control calmed him down again.
”That’s the deal, I want you to take care of Gao Ruxue for me, and then close that door when you can.” Dr. Gao didn’t seem to be worried that Chen Ge would refuse: “In return, in addition to the accumulated heritage of the Weird Tales Association, I’ll also show you the way to completely close the ‘door’.”
Chen Ge’s haunted house also had a door, to him, that door was a hidden danger, and he had been looking for a way to close it as well, “It’s no problem to take care of Gao Ruxue, I can solve her future living expenses, tuition, including employment, as for closing that out-of-control door, I’ll have to think about it.”
”You will definitely agree to it.” Dr. Gao looked at Chen Ge, those eyes seemed to be able to directly see through people’s hearts, “Your parents and the person who pushed open that door know each other, and she is clear about your parents’ whereabouts.”
Dr. Gao had investigated Chen Ge’s past with the help of the Weird Tales Association.
”How do I know you’re not lying to me?” The clues about his parents had been interrupted for a while, and Chen Ge did not expect to get new information from Dr. Gao’s mouth.
Reaching into his close pocket, Dr. Gao took out a photo.
”This is a photo taken by the Weird Tales Association when they were hunting that door pusher, taken just a week before your parents disappeared.”
The background of the photo was a gloomy alley, with very ordinary buildings on both sides, but looking at it gave people a very twisted feeling.
A couple stood with their backs to the camera, and across from them was a little girl in red.
When the photo was taken, the girl seemed to have spotted the photographer and pointed to the end of the alley and shouted, and the couple was ready to turn their heads.
From the back view, Chen Ge could be sure that those were his parents, and Dr. Gao had no need to deceive himself.
”Where was this photo taken?”
”Liwan Town after twelve midnight.”
”I’ve also been to Liwan Town, the streets over there don’t seem to be like this. But a week before my parents disappeared, they did go out every night, as if they were looking for something.” Chen Ge walked forward, ready to take a closer look at the photo, but her legs were wrapped around her black hair, and Zhang Ya didn’t let Chen Ge leave her side, as if there were hidden dangers nearby.
After seeing this scene, Dr. Gao shoved the photo to Ruxue Gao, “That door is out of control now, who knows what will happen next, what monsters will run out of that door.”
”Dr. Gao, there’s a question I can’t figure out.” Chen Ge interrupted Dr. Gao, “It seems to me that you never cared about other people’s lives and deaths, but now why do you have to ask me to close that door? What good will that do you?”
”That door is out of control, and when you enter it, you will know why.” Hearing this, Dr. Gao seemed to be certain that Chen Ge would agree, and he directly spelled out the method of shutting the door, “There is only one method of shutting the door that I’ve proven now, and that is to find the door pusher, make him suffer all the despair of the world behind the door, and then bring him outside the door to be imprisoned. The world behind the door only appeared because of the despair of the door pusher, and after losing all the negativity, the cycle of the door appearing will become longer and longer until it finally disappears.”
”So to close the door you have to find the door pusher? But what if the door pusher has already turned into a red-robed ghost, or has simply been vaporized?”
”A red-robed stern ghost can still withstand the despair behind the door, as for the soul flying away, I have yet to encounter such a situation.” Dr. Gao’s voice was getting weaker and weaker, the thin black lines in his eyes kept surging, seemingly ready to drill out of his body, just by looking at it from afar, Chen Ge could feel the pain that Dr. Gao was enduring at this moment.
”Take Gao Ruxue and leave, this world is going to be destroyed, next, I will go and find another way to close the door.”
Blood, flesh and organs fell from the top of his head, the underground corpse vault began to have a large collapse, the despair and negativity that supported this world all entered Dr. Gao’s body, at this time, this world had already begun to collapse.
The passageway shook, Dr. Gao touched Gao Ruxue’s head, “Go home, I’ve opened the door.”
Not waiting for Gao Ruxue to speak, the woman lying in Dr. Gao’s arms suddenly raised her head and looked into Gao Ruxue’s eyes, and with just a simple glance, Gao Ruxue fainted.
The woman’s body became even more illusory, and under Dr. Gao’s order, she made the two crematorium workers who escorted Gao Ruxue in faint again.
