Chapter 0594 – Diversified Development of Haunted House
”You first cooperate with the second team to investigate the bodies in the reservoir, just leave the rest to us.” Li Zhen had a strange feeling every time he conversed with Chen Ge, the other party was like a first-line criminal police officer with many years of real-world experience in both his tone and his way of thinking, and sometimes he wondered if Chen Ge was a supernumerary special agent that Team Yan was specifically looking for.
Li Zhen even felt that he wouldn’t be too surprised if one day in the future, Chen Ge tapped his shoulder and said with a smile – sorry, I’m a cop too.
Doing a job was a labor of love, but Chen Ge’s pursuit of justice and his probing of murders had gone far beyond the realm of love. It was hard to imagine what kind of state he was in every day, asking for nothing in return, finding out one buried case after another in the forgotten corners of the city.
”Okay, I’ll cooperate with them.”
The ones in charge of investigating the floating corpse in the reservoir were the Dongjiao Police Station and the city precinct’s Criminal Investigation Unit 2. Chen Ge wasn’t too familiar with them, and after asking some basic questions, the two sides were at a standstill over the ownership of the coffin lid.
Finally, under the persuasion of the head of the Criminal Investigation Unit 2, Chen Ge agreed to first hand over the coffin lid and those dolls in the coffin to the police, and then after the forensic doctors and other professionals had finished identifying the dolls, they would then be directly transported back to the House of Horrors by the police.
”Each doll here has a name engraved on its back, each name corresponds to a living child, I suggest you investigate all of these names, there may be unexpected gains.” The eastern suburb was calm for a long time, but unfortunately this calm was camouflaged; there were dark currents beneath the surface, and no one knew how much more filth was hidden in the deep water.
At 3:30 a.m., reservoir managers and search and rescue teams arrived, and the bodies were all fished out, along with the coffins.
During the salvage process, one member of the search and rescue team heard strange noises coming from a cave beneath the reservoir, and others saw shadows shifting in the cave, not knowing if it was a school of fish or something else unknown.
The salvage went smoothly, the bodies and coffins were transported away directly after they came out of the water, and there was nothing left for Chen Ge to do.
After asking the police for permission, Chen Ge took a taxi and left.
He had never seen a horrifying scene built underwater before and was curious about this newly unlocked scene.
At around four in the morning, Chen Ge returned to his haunted house and pushed open the door as he headed straight underground.
Walking through the gloomy steps, Chen Ge found that there was an additional path in the middle of Twilight Sun Middle School and Living Coffin Village.
It could only allow two people to pass by side by side, extending deeper underground, and walking in it felt very depressing.
The light was dim, the air was somewhat humid, and Chen Ge vaguely heard the sound of water waves.
At the end of the passage was a dark patch of water, with a small boat floating on the water.
The boat was wooden and could only seat two people at most.
”No oars?”
Chen Ge threw the cylinder ghost into the water, and to his surprise, the water was somewhat deep.
Sitting on the boat, Chen Ge put his hand into the water and slowly paddled forward.
”This design is a bit perverted, in order to make the boat move, you have to use your hands to paddle, if the monsters and ghosts hidden in the water come out at this time, how desperate should the people on the boat be?”
For safety reasons, Chen Ge decided to go to the props room later to make a handful of small wooden pulps out, just in case.
Holding onto the wall, the small boat continued forward, the twin-born water ghost scene was only half the size of Twilight Sun Middle School.
”At least it’s a two-star scene, it can’t be this sketchy, right?”
Chen Ge sat on the boat, holding his cell phone for illumination, the underwater tank ghost suddenly emerged, he waved his hands and pointed underwater.
”You said there’s something underwater?” Chen Ge thought about it and thought it was very possible.
The water was open, and the small boat was not given oars, so the people on board could only use their hands to row the boat, which would likely be dragged off the boat by something in the water.
Water and fire had no mercy, no matter what time of the day, safety was the most important thing, Chen Ge in order to make sure that the tourists would not have an accident, he took off his still a little damp coat and jumped into the water once again.
Using his Yin pupil, Chen Ge was surprised to find that under the water was simply another world.
The Twin Life Water Ghost scene was tilted, and the further in you went, the deeper the water became and the more underwater things there were.
Under the water near the entrance sank some things that were often seen in daily life, there were worn out sofas, tilted tables and chairs, broken lamps and lanterns, it was as if several rooms had been sunk under the water.
”The residence of the deceased in life?” The bottom of the river further on was stuffed with broken dolls, a mutilated face set in the bottom, staring at the boat on the water.
Further on the doll fragments rested a large number of coffins, which were stacked on top of each other, complicating the underwater terrain.
”This scene can’t be opened to tourists for the time being, without supporting equipment, it’s easy to get into trouble.” Encountering scary things underwater was ten times scarier than on the ground, unfortunately the risk was too great, Chen Ge was opening a haunted house, and he defined himself as a service industry, the underwater scene was a good direction, but that had to be attempted after the supporting equipment matured.
”It’s not completely useless, I can put all the water ghosts I catch here in the future.” Chen Ge and the cylinder ghost combined their efforts to push the boat to the shore, then he returned the same way, holding his coat, “You can stay here for now.”
The cylinder ghost had a cowardly character, give him a water tank and he would be able to stay in it for a few years peacefully, this character of his was really a bit sorry for his looks.
”When you see tourists sneaking in, remember to discourage them from leaving, and if they fall into the water, you must save them, understand?” After Chen Ge finished explaining about the cylinder ghost, he still wasn’t at ease, he ran to the tool room again to make a barricade and placed it at the entrance of the scene.
”Who would have thought that my haunted house would even have an underwater scene.” Chen Ge looked at his haunted house, a sense of pride arose within him, under his creation, the haunted house had hospitals, schools, villages, residential areas, and now even a miniature manmade lake, “The horror house has only been upgraded to the Trembling Labyrinth right now, as it continues to be unlocked, will my horror house become a dungeon consisting of countless strange stories and frightening legends? ”
When he had just obtained the black cell phone, Chen Ge had seen the words City of Nightmares in the quest information, and he felt that that should be the final state of the House of Horrors.
After dealing with that, Chen Ge put his wet clothes into the bathroom and simply cleaned them before returning to the staff lounge.
He was just about to go to bed when his own cell phone vibrated, and Li Zheng called him at this time.
”Team Li? Is something wrong?”
”Huang Ling’s husband has been found.” Li Zheng’s tone wasn’t too good, they seemed to be in trouble over there.
”Where did you guys find it?” Chen Ge suddenly sat up, startling the white cat that had just arched to his side.
”We checked the surveillance along the way and finally found him at the entrance of the White Dragon Cave Tunnel when he had fallen into a coma.”
”White Dragon Cave Tunnel?” Chen Ge felt that the name was somewhat familiar, his eyes slowly widened, the White Dragon Cave was the very same abandoned tunnel that he had gone to during his previous nightmare quests, and it was there that he had first seen his infant self being killed.
