Chapter 0549 – The Disappearing Door
Only after letting Xu Yin take the lead and making sure there was no danger did Chen Ge enter it.
Following the wooden ladder to the bottom of the secret passage, Chen Ge hung up the phone and turned on the lighting function that came with his cell phone.
He bent forward and after about three or four meters, an iron door appeared in front of him with a police seal on it.
Possibly due to the moisture from being underground, the iron door was covered in red rust.
Chen Ge tried to push the door, and something that surprised him appeared.
It was as if the door had grown together with the surrounding land and formed a whole, no matter how much he pushed, he could not push the door open.
”Locked?” Chen Ge checked the iron door, the chain eyes were nowhere to be seen, there was no such possibility of it being locked.
”It seems that we can only take other methods.” Chen Ge took out his skull crushing hammer and briefly calculated the distance between here and the ground, “Making noise in this place, the residents upstairs shouldn’t notice.”
He took a few steps back, then raised the skull crushing hammer and hammered heavily on the edge of the iron door!
Blood-red rust shook off the ground, and large chunks of dirt fell off overhead, giving the impression that the place was about to collapse.
”Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Chen Ge had already prepared himself when he hung up the phone with Fan Cong, and after several consecutive full force swings, the iron door was finally hammered open.
The dirt and gravel above his head fell on his body, and Chen Ge felt his body shaking.
This place was dangerous, but since he was here, it was not Chen Ge’s style to not go in and take a look.
He looked at the iron door that he had hammered open and reached out to stroke the edge of it.
At the place where the iron door was connected to the dirt, there were many things like the roots of dead plants, most of which were gray, and a few of which were blood red.
”These are the blood filaments crawling out from inside the door? What exactly is the difference between an out-of-control ‘door’ and a normal ‘door’?” Chen Ge examined the iron door in front of him, and the more he looked at it, the stranger he felt, “The door as a whole is embedded in the passageway, it’s extremely inconvenient to open, and it’s hard for me to push it as an adult, let alone Xiao Bu.”
Chen Ge suspected that this door was not the door that Boo pushed open in the secret room, but the police later pressed on it specifically, in order to supposedly prevent someone from entering the secret room.
”There is a police seal affixed to the door, and you can’t see the locking eye, rather than calling this a door, it’s more appropriate to say that it’s an iron plate blocking the way.”
”Assuming that this door was installed by the police, where is the real door in the secret room?”
Chen Ge observed the edge of the iron door and quickly made a discovery.
Inside the iron door, there was a blood-red wooden doorframe slightly away from the iron door.
But strangely, the door frame was still there, but the door was gone.
”There should be a second door in the secret room, but where did the door go?”
”After losing control, the door disappears? Or was it removed by the police as evidence? Could they have found something on the door?”
Chen Ge muttered under his breath as he raised his cell phone and froze when the light shone into the secret room behind the iron plate.
Behind the iron door was a secret room of roughly thirty square meters, and in the center of the room was placed a large iron cage with a set of plush doll outerwear thrown inside.
And right at this moment, there seemed to be a girl standing in the middle of that pile of plush doll outerwear.
”Boo?”
Xu Yin had no warning, Chen Ge gripped the Cranium Crushing Hammer and slowly approached, walking one or two meters forward, when he circled around to the front of the “girl”, he realized that it was a dummy.
The dummy’s face had the word Jiang Bai written all over it in red ballpoint pen, which was a bit scary to look at.
”Jiang Bai is Jiang Long’s daughter, why is her name written on this dummy’s face?”
The door of the iron cage was unlocked, and Chen Ge soon made a new discovery, all the plush doll jackets in the iron cage had three words written on them with colored pens – Zhang Chuyue.
This name also impressed Chen Ge, Jiang Long’s original wife was her.
”Could it be that Boo later made Zhang Chuyue wear all the doll jackets as well in order to get revenge, and also put her in the iron cage as well?”
Xiao Bu pushed open the door in the secret room and entered the world behind the door, and with her age being so young, the probability of her coming out of the world behind the door alive was almost non-existent.
According to Chen Ge’s guess, when Boo came out again, she had already turned red.
”Jiang Long’s family of four, Jiang Xiaohu was sent to a mental hospital, Jiang Long died in a car accident, his wife and daughter disappeared, and all of this was done by Boo?”
Most of the Red Clothes were some sort of emotion to the extreme, either pain or resentment, their strength was far beyond that of an ordinary Lixian ghost, but they were likewise governed by their emotions, and would be more impulsive and crazy, possessing an extremely strong desire to destroy.
Chen Ge wasn’t surprised that Boo did anything, what he couldn’t figure out was how Boo got Zhang Chuyue and Jiang Bai to Liwan Town.
Although red-clothed stern ghosts didn’t need to be hosted on an object from their life like ordinary stern ghosts, they couldn’t leave their location too far away.
Strong as Zhang Ya, she had also stayed in the Xicheng Private Academy until after her love letter was drawn by Chen Ge.
The more main reason she was able to move around freely was that she had taken Chen Ge’s shadow as her parasite, in other words, Chen Ge was the parasite of her obsession, which was why she was able to follow Chen Ge around in Jiujiang.
”Someone helped Boo send Zhang Chuyue and Jiang Bai over?” Chen Ge himself often dealt with ghosts and monsters, and he knew that ghosts and monsters could sometimes communicate.
He was now suspicious that some sort of deal had been struck between the person behind the scenes and Boo, with the other party placing Jiang Long’s family at Boo’s disposal, and Boo helping him accomplish something.
”The Weird Talk Association had also taken control of the door in Liwan Town, and from what Dr. Gao said, they had also stored some of the things that the Weird Talk Association had accumulated into this door, so could it be them who made the deal with Boo?”
Chen Ge thought carefully and felt that it was unlikely, “The Weird Talk Association might have been pwned by the shadows in the eastern suburbs, this door is different from the one in the third sickbay, it is itself artificially created, it is one of the shadows’ layouts.”
Standing from the perspective of a bystander, Chen Ge saw more thoroughly, “The scope of activities of the Weird Talk Association is mainly centered in the western and northern suburbs, yet they found a door in the eastern suburb, it might be the Shadow behind this, and he presumably wants to swallow the Weird Talk Association in one gulp along with it.”
In its heyday, the Weird Talk Association possessed countless ordinary Li Ghosts and several Red Clothes, plus Wu Fei, a genius among lunatics, and Dr. Gao, a lunatic among lunatics, but even so, it was still being punked by the Shadow, which made Chen Ge even more fearful of the black hand behind the Eastern Suburbs.
”When Dr. Gao was dying, he also mentioned the door to the eastern suburb, it seems that the eastern suburb also left a deep impression on him, and I’m afraid that he fought with the ghosts and monsters of the eastern suburb, only that he didn’t take advantage of them.” Chen Ge actually wanted to use Dr. Gao’s power, but the other party wasn’t even a human being anymore, so after thinking about it he gave up this dangerous idea.
