A+ A- Turn Off Light

  After reading the information on the cell phone, Chen Ge’s gaze towards the couple next to him appeared to change, the Ming Yang district was built for ghosts, and the three investors all died, so there must be something fishy about it.

  Chen Ge even suspected that the three investors were all compelled by that horrible shadow, which is why they would struggle to run next to Liwan Town to build such a neighborhood.

  ”The deaths of the three investors should also be related to the shadow, doing whatever it takes to achieve their goals, in order to eliminate the evidence and kill it directly after utilizing it, the person behind this is so ruthless.”

  Knowing the identity of the couple, Chen Ge looked at them in a completely different light.

  The man strongly requested to get on the bus, ready to rush to Liwan Town, most likely received some news, while the woman firmly disagreed to get on the 104 bus, presumably there are also deep reasons.

  The two had different ideas, but when they committed suicide, their bodies burned together, so they had no choice but to stay at the station.

  This time, if it wasn’t for Chen Ge, it was estimated that the two of them still wouldn’t get on the bus.

  ”This couple is helpful for me to understand Liwan Town and Mingyang District, it seems that I can’t treat them simply as employees.”

  After figuring out the identity of the two, Chen Ge became even more curious about the other passengers.

  ”Tonight is destined to be a night of harvest.” Chen Ge liked the feeling of challenging a low-star trial mission, and how good the atmosphere was when everyone could solve problems by sitting together and chatting.

  The couple argued in small voices, Chen Ge left the last row with his backpack and sat next to the man with very uncoordinated limbs.

  ”Brother, what’s your name?” Chen Ge looked at the man next to him while holding his backpack.

  Turning his head stiffly, the man slowed down for a long time before realizing that Chen Ge was talking to him, he raised his hand and gestured a few times, and when he saw that Chen Ge still didn’t understand, he pointed to his mouth again before waving his hand.

  ”Mute?” Chen Ge didn’t expect there to be such a passenger on the bus, and he owed slightly, “Sorry.”

  The man swung his hands, and his fingertips inadvertently touched Chen Ge’s back, still warm.

  ”The hands are hot? This is a living person?” Chen Ge’s pupils narrowed as he used his Yin pupils and did not see anything unusual in the man, “He should be like Xiao Gu and Huang Ling, he got on the car unintentionally.”

  After thinking for a moment, Chen Ge felt something was wrong again.

  It was eleven thirty at night when the hearse came into the station, who would run to the bus stop and wait for the bus at this time?

  Chen Ge stared at the man for half a day, he gradually realized the problem, the man’s intelligence seemed to be defective, it wasn’t that he couldn’t make a sound, he just couldn’t speak.

  An intellectually defective person, the night to take the hearse to Liwan Town, is he really stupid or pretending to be stupid?

  Taking out his cell phone, Chen Ge tapped on his communication page, “It’s dangerous for you to be out there alone like this, where are you planning to go, let me accompany you, this is my cell phone number.”

  The man didn’t seem to understand his words very well and only knew to wave his hand.

  Chen Ge took a look at what the man was wearing, the clothes on him hadn’t been washed for a long time, and his pants had holes in them, this image really couldn’t be associated with a homicidal maniac or the mastermind behind the scenes.

  There was no way to communicate, Chen Ge chose to give up after a few tries, he was going to wait until he finished the hearse mission, then follow this man to see what exactly he was planning to do in Liwan Town.

  If there was something wrong with him, Chen Ge would immediately put him under control, and if he was just an ordinary man, Chen Ge would follow him to make sure that he wouldn’t be attacked by ghosts and monsters.

  Late at night in Liwan Town, no one knows what is hidden, under the influence of that out-of-control “door”, Liwan has become a place where two worlds overlap.

  Getting up, Chen Ge walked to the other side of the aisle.

  The people in the car watched him walk around, not a single person had an opinion, the driver even dared not say a word, the gas pedal stepped on the bottom, his mind only thinking about driving to the terminal in a hurry.

  Stopping next to the man wearing thick clothes, Chen Ge sized up the other side: “Aren’t you hot wearing such thick clothes?”

  The man looked up at Chen Ge, then pressed down the brim of his hat and coldly uttered two words, “It’s okay.”

  He was wrapped in thick clothes and wore a hat, gloves, and a mask, with only his eyes exposed on his entire body.

  ”Are you sick?” Chen Ge used his Yin pupil, but he realized that the man seemed to be a living person as well.

  ”Why do I feel that living people are even stranger than ghosts?” Chen Ge sat next to the man, and he could feel the slightest chill emerging from the man’s body, the kind of cold that emanated from within his body.

  Chen Ge had encountered this situation before, in the Living Coffin Village, the old lady who had been in contact with the Well Throwing Woman Ghost for decades also had her body temperature dropping, and in the end, it was the Well Throwing Woman Ghost who stepped in to barely help her maintain her body temperature.

  Could it be that this man he also often dealt with ghosts and monsters?

  Chen Ge couldn’t see the other person’s face clearly, and there was no way to tell any useful information just from his eyes and voice.

  ”When these two living people got on the bus, the driver didn’t even stop them, indicating that the driver didn’t feel any threat from them. From this point of view, even if they had an undercard, that undercard wouldn’t be as strong as Zhang Ya.”

  Thinking of this, Chen Ge lowered his heart, and his body went backward, leaning on the back of the seat.

  From time to time, he glanced to the side, and gradually he found something useful from some details.

  The scarf on this man’s neck was hand-knitted with woolen threads, the threads were messy, and there was a section where one should have run out of one ball of thread and had to pick up another.

  Normally it would be like braiding, splitting each side into several strands and then interspersing them to connect them, Chen Ge himself did this when he made clothes for the mannequins in the haunted house, and there was absolutely no trace of it.

  However, the scarf on the man’s neck was clearly visible as a lump bound by a ball of thread, and the person who wove the scarf for him should be a novice.

  Again, judging from the style and newness of the scarf, this was at least ten years old.

  In addition, the fact that the man was still wearing the scarf even though he was in the hearse indicated that it was important to him, and that this ordinary scarf had some kind of special significance.

  Finally, combined with the man’s voice when he spoke, Chen Ge judged that the man was around forty years old, and he should have a wife who loved him very much, and his wife had probably been in an accident.

  The man’s body was very cold, and he seemed to have spent a long time with ghosts and monsters just like Chen Ge.

  Connecting all the above clues together, Chen Ge felt that this man should also have a ghost in his body that was always with him, and that ghost was his wife.

  Without any substantial evidence, Chen Ge was just guessing, but compared to the man’s identity, he was actually more curious about why this man would go to Liwan Town at night.

  ”Most of the ghosts and monsters I’ve seen in the western suburbs kill and devour each other, but the ghosts and monsters in this eastern suburb seem to be a bit different.”
