Chapter 0495 – Top Ten Weird Tales of the Eastern Suburbs
Chen Ge’s voice was calm as he was questioning the other party very seriously.
”Have you forgotten all of them? Then I’ll give you a little more hint.” The blurry-faced child stretched out his own hands and pinched his neck, “At that time, you tricked me into a deserted tunnel, and you said that you heard someone shouting your name in there, but after we entered the tunnel together, you stood behind me and suddenly pinched my neck just like this!”
The child’s head was tilted, his hands choked his neck out of shape, his face slowly swelled up, and a blue vein surfaced on his forehead, “Ring a bell? At that time, your fingers sunk a little bit into the middle of my skin and kept pushing ……”
That child’s voice echoed in Chen Ge’s ears, a fragmented picture flashed through his mind, and the scene in front of him seemed to have really appeared.
What made Chen Ge feel even stranger was that when he saw the child being choked by the neck, his body instinctively developed a familiar feeling, as if the murderer was really himself.
”I’ve killed someone?” As the rain dampened his hair, Chen Ge shook his head as he remembered something else.
When he was doing the fourth Nightmare Level quest in the depths of the tunnel before, he had seen his childhood self and an adult enter the middle of the tunnel.
The image in front of him was indeed familiar, except that it was different from what the child had said, the victim was himself, and at that time, it wasn’t him who was killing people, but rather, it was someone who wanted to kill him!
If he hadn’t done that nightmare level quest before and hadn’t seen that scene in the depths of the tunnel, Chen Ge was afraid that even if he didn’t believe that he was the murderer right now, he would have a slight wavering in his heart.
”He might be the murderer in the first place, otherwise it’s impossible to know these things.” Chen Ge muttered, moving his feet in the direction where the boy was, wanting to close the distance.
Realizing that Chen Ge remained calm, the boy loosened his hands, his head resting on his shoulders, “It seems like you really don’t remember?”
The boy’s face slowly became clear as the rain washed over him, the expression on his face was very strange, looking at Chen Ge was as if he was looking at himself in the mirror, “You killed me, you killed me with your own hands, I won’t forget that feeling, and soon you will experience it as well.”
The child stepped back, and the silhouette behind him tucked the boy back into his body and stood quietly in place.
Chen Ge was less than ten meters away from the silhouette at this point, and as he was about to get a little closer, a miserably white hand gently rested on Chen Ge’s shoulder.
The repeater emitted a rustling sound of electricity, and Xu Yin, who was dressed in red, appeared at Chen Ge’s side at an unknown time, and he gently shook his head, preventing Chen Ge from continuing forward.
”Is he dangerous?” Chen Ge had other things to fall back on, as he raised his leg, his thigh was held in a death grip, looking down, a three or four year old boy blocked in front of him with his teeth bared.
”Men Nan?” After this child was taken out of the third sick building by Chen Ge, he hadn’t had the time to return it, or perhaps Chen Ge had simply forgotten about this matter selectively, and had always kept Men Nan amongst the comic books.
”Two red coats blocking at the same time? This silhouette doesn’t look like a red coat either, it seems to be merely a shadow, huh?”
Chen Ge stopped his steps and did not continue forward.
After a few moments, the footprints of a child began to appear around the silhouette, the children’s laughter and cries slowly disappeared, and the silhouette’s body was slowly solidifying.
When the last child’s cries disappeared, the silhouette silently gazed at Chen Ge, he was exactly the same height and size as Chen Ge, he was like Chen Ge’s own shadow.
”It was you who killed me.”
The body was that of an adult, but the voice that came out of the black shadow’s mouth was that of a child, eerie, cold, and filled with malice.
After he finally said these words, his gaze leapt over Chen Ge and looked behind him, turning around and disappearing in the midst of the downpour.
”This is leaving?” Chen Ge followed the black shadow’s gaze just now, and under the light from his cell phone, he could vaguely see his shadow turn into the shape of a woman.
”Is he being scrupulous about Zhang Ya? Not quite, he seems to be scrupulous about something else.” The sound of raindrops in his ears gradually became louder, and everything returned to normal as the torrential rain swept across the land with reckless abandon, and that black shadow had long since disappeared.
”The two red clothes blocked it, and Zhang Ya also felt threatened, what exactly was that thing?” Chen Ge used to have only two concepts of ghosts and monsters, running when he saw one wearing a red suit, and chasing if it wasn’t a red suit, now he had encountered a third kind of ghost, a shadow that claimed to have been killed by Chen Ge.
”This ghost monster is a bit special, so many people disappearing every year in the Eastern Suburbs are probably related to him, that weird talk that the driver told about being the scariest just now should be it.”
The silhouette had already left, Chen Ge no longer delayed, called Xiao Gu’s phone and flew towards the waterworks, “Xiao Gu, I’ve arrived? Where are you guys?”
”You’ve arrived?” Xiao Gu’s voice is very surprised: “Just that stood in front of the water plant motionless is you?”
”Nonsense, where are you guys?”
”We’ll be right over!”
The phone hung up, Xiao Gu and a soaked woman ran out from the bushes next to the water plant, “Boss!”
Xiao Gu was elated, but the woman was reluctant to come over.
She looked from afar at Chen Ge, who was standing in the middle of the rainstorm, wearing a raincoat and dragging a skull-crushing hammer, and felt a little uneasy in her heart.
In the middle of nowhere, the rain was pouring down, soaked to the skin, her hands were protecting her chest, and her body couldn’t stop shivering.
”How come there’s a woman?”
”She was also a passenger in that car.” Xiao Gu gave Chen Ge a brief description of Huang Ling’s situation.
”There were other living people in that car besides you?”
”Not only me and Sister Huang Ling, there was also a student in the last row of the car, he also helped me in the car, he doesn’t look like a bad person.” Xiao Gu was a bit remorseful, “I was too far away from him when I got off the bus, or I would have taken him with me.”
”Those who help you are not necessarily all people, and those who harm you are not necessarily all ghosts.” Chen Ge stared at Huang Ling for a long time, then beckoned, “The cab is outside, let’s go together.”
Coming to the side of the road, Chen Ge realized that the outside of the car window was full of children’s muddy handprints, and the poor driver, had fainted in the main driver’s seat.
”Don’t panic, he’s still breathing, he should have been stunned.” Chen Ge put the driver in the back row, dragging the skull crushing hammer and standing outside the car door in deep thought, after a long time he turned to look at Xiao Gu and Huang Ling.
”Which one of you two can drive?”
Xiao Gu shook his head, “Boss, can’t you drive? I remember last time you drove a van back to Paradise.”
”I can drive.” Chen Ge paused for a moment, “But there’s no driver’s license, and there’s a car recorder and in-car video installed in the cab, so in case the driver calls the police, it’ll be troublesome when the police ask about it later.”
”How about I drive that ……?” Huang Ling walked to Xiao Gu and Chen Ge’s side with a hesitant look, “I will send you to your destination, but before that, can you go to my house first? I’m a bit worried about my husband.”
