Chapter 0595 – He’s Dead
Huang Ling’s husband was unconscious at the entrance of the White Dragon Cave tunnel, which was something Chen Ge had not expected.
”The Shadow is extremely cunning, he might have sensed something and fled ahead of time, but why would he go to the White Dragon Cave? Is this giving me a hint, or is there something he needs in that tunnel?”
”Huang Ling’s husband was unconscious outside the tunnel, does this mean that he has been abandoned by Shadow? Perhaps the tunnel contains Shadow’s spare body.”
Several questions surfaced in his mind and Chen Ge couldn’t figure it out, he glanced at the time and said to Li Zheng, “Team Li, can I go over and ask him a few questions?”
”We’re in the hospital, the doctor is checking Jia Ming’s body, he’s blurred in consciousness and confused, I’m afraid we can’t ask anything for the time being.”
”Then is it okay for me to see him?” Chen Ge wanted to personally determine if the shadow was still on Jia Ming.
After receiving Li Zheng’s consent, Chen Ge changed his clothes and rushed to the People’s Hospital without stopping.
Over the course of the night, Chen Ge went in and out of the entrance of the paradise a few times, and at first the janitorial grandpa even greeted him, but later the grandpa felt a little tired.
At more than six in the morning, Chen Ge arrived at the People’s Hospital, there were police officers standing at the entrance of two wards, he was just about to approach when he was stopped.
”I’m looking for Captain Li Zheng from the city precinct, I spoke to him on the phone earlier.” Chen Ge reported Li Zheng’s name, one of the policemen felt that Chen Ge looked somewhat familiar, and after looking at him for a while, he actually recognized Chen Ge.
”Captain Li explained, follow me.” The policeman brought Chen Ge outside the first ward on the left, “Jia Ming is in this room, his mental state is unstable, don’t say anything to stimulate him.”
”Understood.” Chen Ge glanced toward the ward next to him, “This house houses Jia Ming, who lives in that house?”
”His wife Huang Ling, we went to Huang Ling’s house first tonight and realized that Huang Ling was in a very wrong state, just like taking some kind of medication, so we sent her to the hospital with us.”
”Hard work.” Chen Ge gently pushed open the door of the ward, Li Zheng and another female police officer were sitting a meter away from the hospital bed, talking to the person in the bed.
Hearing the sound of the room door being opened, several people in the room looked towards the door.
Originally, this was nothing, Li Zheng and the policewoman had known that Chen Ge was coming, so they acted very calmly, but just as Li Zheng was about to greet Chen Ge, Jia Ming on the hospital bed suddenly screamed.
His face turned white and he jumped directly to the other side of the hospital bed, agitated and trembling, pointing at Chen Ge: ”Ghost! Ghost! He’s a ghost!”
The needle for the infusion was ripped off, but Jia Ming seemed as if he couldn’t feel any pain at all, and his eyes looked at Chen Ge with fear almost overflowing.
The few people in the hospital room did not expect such a turn of events, Li Zheng called for the doctor, and the few people combined their efforts to press Jia Ming down on the hospital bed and regain control of him.
”Do we need to inject a tranquilizer?” The doctor asked Li Zheng, who shook his head, curious as to why Jia Ming reacted so strongly at the sight of Chen Ge.
Only after Jia Ming calmed down did Chen Ge make it to the chair.
It was strange to say that ever since he entered this room, those eyes of Jia Ming had been staring at him alone, and as soon as he came slightly closer to the hospital bed, Jia Ming wanted to flee like a frightened cat.
”Well, there’s no way he can hurt you with us here, plus I can tell you with certainty that he’s a human not a ghost.” Li Zheng made Chen Ge sit next to him.
”What the hell is going on?” Chen Ge was also puzzled, he used his Yin pupil to scrutinize Jia Ming, the other party did not have a trace of Yin Qi on his body and looked no different from a living person.
The ghost was not on him, had it left, or was it hiding in his shadow?
Chen Ge came out without his backpack, and he kept a high level of vigilance on Jia Ming.
Ever since Chen Ge entered this room, the atmosphere was completely different, Li Zheng rubbed his temples with a headache, his bloodshot eyes looking at the two people who were staring at each other, “Both calm down.”
He saw that Jiaming was slowly calming down and had the doctor go and treat the wound on the back of his hand, taking away all the sharp things and breakables next to the hospital bed in the process.
”Tell me, why did you call him a ghost? Have you seen him before?” Li Zheng had interrogated many prisoners, and Jia Ming’s reaction just now didn’t seem like he was deliberately faking it.
Jia Ming didn’t dare to speak, his eyes were evasive, and finally he opened his mouth after Li Zheng repeatedly pressed him, “I saw it with my own eyes, he was killed!”
”I was killed?” Not only Li Zheng, even Chen Ge himself was surprised, he honestly stayed in the haunted house during the day and occasionally went out at night, he had been alive and well, how could he have been killed?
”But others are here right now, are you having an illusion? It’s easy for people to appear like this when they are highly stressed or emotionally unstable, after all, our brains will only let us see what we want to see a lot of the time.” Li Zheng tried to analyze it from a professional perspective.
”He’s not human, you guys believe me! He’s very dangerous! He really is a ghost, a stern ghost that demands his life!” At the mention of Chen Ge, Jia Ming’s emotions immediately became agitated, “He’ll kill me, something will definitely happen if I get too close to him, I’ll die, no! Everyone in this room will die!”
Jia Ming’s voice was so loud that the other wards could hear him, Li Zheng and the doctors in the room frowned.
”It’s not a good idea to keep letting him scream like that, I’d still suggest giving him some tranquilizers first.” The doctor proposed again, but was still rejected by Li Zheng.
This experienced first-line police officer was observing Jia Ming’s tone and demeanor as he spoke, including the direction of the other party’s pupil rotation as he spoke he noticed, but the final result surprised him a little, Jia Ming didn’t seem to be lying.
Hearing Jia Ming’s words, Chen Ge didn’t immediately retort, but instead looked at Jia Ming with a few moments of playfulness, a reaction that made Li Zheng also somewhat unsure of what to say.
Normally speaking, when a living person sitting right next to him was told by the suspect that he was actually dead, Li Zheng would have laughed it off and dragged the suspect to a psychiatrist.
But after this happened to Chen Ge, Li Zheng’s heart drummed straight, the man next to himself even in the city precinct case file storage room has an exclusive partition, to help the police solve a murder, he is almost and death side by side.
That wasn’t to say that he doubted Chen Ge was dead though, he just thought that this case might involve something even more horrifying.
”You said I would kill you? What’s the motive for killing then?” When people were suddenly frightened, their bodies would react in certain ways uncontrollably, and Chen Ge was an expert in this regard.
When he first entered the door, his eyes fell on Jia Ming, the other party was acting extremely frightened, both his demeanor and the tone of his voice were very realistic, but Chen Ge looked at him and felt a little awkward.
There was a slight difference between Jia Ming’s reaction just now and the reaction of those tourists in the haunted house when they were frightened, so it was hard to tell if you didn’t scare people often.
With that in mind, Chen Ge’s gaze toward Jia Ming changed, from kind to hideous.
”You said I would kill you, so you have to give me a reason to kill you, right?”
