Chapter 0501: All Bad Endings
The building to restore calm, the old lady looked at the security door of Jia Ming’s house, quite a bit of intolerance: “The house is gone, the child is gone, such a big blow is no wonder will go crazy, is poor little Jia.”
Under the building, the cab driver listened to the busy sound coming from the phone, has not reacted from the shock.
”What do you mean? I’m involved in a murder? I just heard that someone else got sick?” The driver felt his mind was in a daze, and when he woke up, the car was parked in an unfamiliar family compound, and he didn’t even know where he was anymore.
”Better call the police.” Hands shaking, the driver directly dialed the police and told the police how he was held hostage.
……
Chen Ge rested for a while outside the last classroom of Mureyang Middle School before re-entering the middle of the classroom.
The Yin Qi dissipated, and those few psychotic bodies were close to transparent, but their ferocity remained unabated, and there was still no way to communicate.
”This is still really sick.”
Retrieving them back into the case list, Chen Ge walked out of Mureyang Middle School and entered the third sick building scene, casually found a bed, and without taking off his jacket, he collapsed and fell asleep.
At eight in the morning, Chen Ge was awakened by his cell phone alarm clock.
”Sleeping was quite comfortable.” Chen Ge rubbed his eyes and opened the door of the ward, “It’s quite a waste to have so many beds empty at night, it feels like we can open an inn that only operates at night, specifically for them to rest.”
Walking out from the underground scene, Chen Ge simply washed up and ran to the door of the staff lounge.
”It’s open.”
Opening the door, Chen Ge was worried that Xiao Gu was being bullied by the white cat and Xiao Xiao, and only after entering did he realize that Xiao Gu was sleeping soundly.
”What a big heart, but someone like this should also have a strong ability to accept new things.”
Waking up Xiao Gu, the two of them briefly cleaned up the horror house hygiene, and then they were ready to start a new day of business.
Pulling back the guardrail of the haunted house, the sunlight sprinkled on Chen Ge, “After coming back from the underground corpse vault, although the body temperature is still dropping, the rate of decline seems to have slowed down a lot.”
”Boss, you’re opening the door but it’s getting later and later?” A girl with a proud top came out of the lounge, she was carrying a breakfast in her hand, “Yours.”
”It’s not even eight twenty, it’s you who came too early.”
Chen Ge took the breakfast and ate it, at this time Xiao Gu also walked out from the haunted house.
”Good morning, Sister Xu Wan!” Xiao Gu didn’t have much heart and walked out of the ghost house with a big grin, looking at Chen Ge’s breakfast with some envy.
Seeing Xiao Gu walk out from the haunted house, Xu Wan politely greeted her, and she was about to walk inside when her pupils suddenly jumped violently, stopping in place to look at Xiao Gu.
”The guardrail was just opened, you didn’t go back last night?” Xu Wan didn’t wait for Xiao Gu to open his mouth, his expression became even weirder: “Why are you wearing the boss’s clothes?”
”It rained last night ah, when I went home ……” Xiao Gu said halfway, suddenly remembered that Chen Ge did not allow himself to put last night’s experience others, he closed his mouth, then looked at Chen Ge.
Xu Wan also looked at Chen Ge with a slight grudge, seemingly wanting an explanation.
The atmosphere was a bit off, and Chen Ge froze, “What are you both looking at me for?”
The entire Western Suburbs House of Horrors owner and staff together, there were only three living people, Chen Ge didn’t want to make any trouble between everyone, and hurriedly explained, “Xiao Gu couldn’t get a taxi home last night, and it was raining heavily, so I had no choice but to let him stay in the lounge for one night, and I myself was busy working on the scene all last night. Right, without saying it I forgot, Xiao Gu, I’ll give you a half day off this afternoon, you go and pack up your things, then rent a house near the Western Suburb Paradise, I’ll advance you the rent first.”
”Thanks boss.” Xiao Gu still didn’t understand what was going on until now, and happily walked towards the dressing room.
Hearing Chen Ge’s explanation, Xu Wan’s mood also instantly changed for the better, “Boss, then I’ll go to the dressing room as well, remember to come over and do my make-up for me in a while.”
”Okay.” Looking at the employees who were full of vigor, Chen Ge himself was also full of energy.
The park opened at nine o’clock, and there was a steady stream of visitors, but what made Chen Ge strange was that no one was willing to challenge the underground corpse vault scene anymore.
Busy until twelve noon, when the employees were resting and preparing to eat, two figures, one tall and one fat, ran out of the lounge.
After Chen Ge took a good look at those two people, he directly put down his meal and walked towards the haunted house.
”Boss Chen! I have something important to find you!” The chubby figure caught up with Chen Ge with an agility that did not match his size.
Knowing that he couldn’t avoid it, Chen Ge just acted as if he had just seen it and grabbed the other party’s hand enthusiastically, “Fan Cong? Why are you here? Quickly sit down, the two of us are considered to be familiar with each other, which scene do you want to visit in my place today?”
The one who stopped Chen Ge was none other than Fan Cong, who had been stunned earlier, and his brother, Fan Da De, the cook of the New Oriental International Hotel.
Fan Cong’s hands were cold, and he had two dark circles under his eyes on his face, as if he hadn’t slept for a long time, “Boss Chen, I might really need your help.”
His tone was solemn, not like he was joking, Chen Ge also got serious: “What exactly happened?”
”Do you remember that little dress-up game I told you about earlier?” Fan Cong had told Chen Ge about that weird little game after he was sent to the Paradise Infirmary, and he suspected that the game was based on a real murder case.
”Remember, the main character is called Boo.” That game had left a deep impression on Chen Ge for the simple reason that Fan Cong had said that the game’s painting style changed after the main character of the game opened the door to the basement, and the first scene he encountered after he manipulated the main character of the game, Boo, after the painting style had changed was the bus station.
There was a red figure in the platform, as well as a dilapidated bus.
This all matches up with what happened to Gu last night!
The red figure on the platform represented the woman in the red raincoat, and the dilapidated bus represented the last bus on route 104.
In other words, the maker of that game had most likely gone through all of this as well.
”It’s good that you remember.” Fan Cong rubbed his hands, he said after a moment of contemplation, “I’ve already passed that game, but ……”
”Don’t have concerns, just say whatever you have.” Chen Ge was even more nervous than Fan Cong, he was now certain that there was a big secret hidden in that game.
”I didn’t sleep for the past two days, and cleared that game four times, getting four different endings.” The flesh on Fan Cong’s face squeezed together, “But all four of them were bad endings, and Boo died four times with different ways of dying. What’s even scarier is that I’m guessing there are other endings, and in those endings Boo will probably experience even more ways to die. It’s a completely hopeless game, or rather, I can’t find where the hope is at all.”
”Don’t be in a hurry, speak slowly.” Chen Ge let Uncle Xu take over for himself first, and he pulled Fan Cong to the lounge, “Tell me the exact process of clearing the game, or I can go to your house tonight to see that game.”
