  One of Boo’s hands was eaten clean by the shadow, and the other was in the hands of the smiling man.

  After the big battle happened just now, the smiling man disappeared, most likely taking advantage of the chaos to escape.

  ”Boo, you gained most of your body, are you able to control that door now?” Chen Ge was worried that the door in Liwan Town would continue to expand.

  Boo shook his head, and the blood gathered on the ground to form a few words – The door has gone completely out of control, I can only slow down its expansion, and if I want to control it, I will not be able to do so unless I find all of my body.

  ”So can you open that door now and get us out?” Boo was the door pusher, in Chen Ge’s opinion this was something the other party could still do.

  Blood flowed and new writing appeared on the ground, “Yes, but I can only open it for one minute a day, that door has been controlled by the shadow, and there are a lot of things I still have to figure out slowly.”

  ”One minute is enough.” Chen Ge knew in his heart that there was no way for Boo to leave with him, even if the door Nan was the same, she needed to stay behind the door to guard the place.

  Liwan Town’s door had already gone out of control, and if there was no more door pusher to guard it, in case it was occupied by something else, what happened tonight would likely repeat itself.

  After thinking clearly about this, Chen Ge did not force Boo to follow him out.

  Seeing Chen Ge’s thoughts, the bloodstain on the ground changed again – You killed your own shadow, according to the agreement, I will become your new shadow, I will not forget this, when I can fully control the “door”, I will go to find you.

  Boo’s eyes wandered over Chen Ge and the shadow behind him, not knowing what to think.

  ”Okay.” Killing the shadow and then letting Boo become Chen Ge’s shadow was what Chen Ge’s parents had planned, but now things had deviated in a way that no one had expected.

  Compared to Boo, who had a cowardly character that was easy to control, Zhang Ya was simply the other extreme, and no one could say what would happen in the future if she was allowed to be a shadow.

  ”Right, there’s one more thing I want to ask you.” Chen Ge suddenly remembered a question, “One third of the Weird Tales Association’s underpinnings were hidden in Liwan Town, do you know where those things are?”

  Boo shook his head again, and Chen Ge didn’t pursue the question any further, whether it was Shadow or Dr. Gao, they were both old foxes, and those goodies must have been hidden particularly deep.

  ”Dr. Gao came over this time, most likely also for the underbelly of the Weird Tales Association, that madman is very scary, and is expected to come back again. You’re in Liwan Town, Red Raincoat is in the Underworld Building, both of you are my friends, and a friend of a friend is a friend, so if you encounter any danger, I hope that you can take care of each other, and you can also come to the western suburb of New Century Paradise to look for me.” After dealing with Boo’s side of things, Chen Ge began to check his staff.

  When facing the shadow, all the employees in the backpack had taken it upon themselves to help out, and now they were all injured, luckily except for Xu Yin, none of the other “people” had been “infected” by the curse.

  ”Old Bai, thanks a lot just now.”

  Bai Qiulin was a lost gambler, cold on the outside and hot on the inside, in the face of Chen Ge’s thanks, he looked at a loss for words, in a total of several decades of life and death, it was the first time he had heard someone say thank you to him, and this kind of feeling of being needed was actually not bad.

  ”I was just passing by.” Bai Qiulin stuck his hands in his pockets, as if talking more would be a disadvantage.

  ”Regardless of whether you were just along for the ride or not, without you this time, something would have happened to all of us.” Xu Yin stopped Shadow, Bai Qiulin left with Chen Ge and the backpack, the division of labor was clear, one of the links went wrong, the one standing here now would probably become Shadow, or Dr. Gao.

  This high intensity battle had its benefits for Bai Qiulin, the red stained area of his heart began to spread out in all directions, the power of Xiong Qing had been able to be utilized by him to the tune of thirty percent.

  Spots of blood also began to appear on the corners of his clothes and pants, Bai Qiulin was taking steps towards red.

  Compared to Xu Yin, he had it easy.

  He possessed Xiong Qing’s heart, and there was no threshold, so as long as he devoured enough of the severe ghosts, he would be able to become a Redcoat.

  In fact, after carefully clearing it up, Chen Ge had gained quite a lot from this mission.

  Xu Yin had officially become a red coat, Bai Qiulin had become a half red coat, Zhang Ya had swallowed the heart of the top red-cloaked overeating female ghost, and now she had obtained half a heart above the suspected red coat, and when she awoke again she would most likely become even more terrifying.

  Most of the employees had gained strength, and Chen Ge had also “recruited” a group of new employees, rare obsessions and ghosts with special abilities, as well as a red-clothed, headless female ghost that had been sensitized by Zhang Ya.

  The most crucial thing was that Chen Ge had gained the friendship of Boo and Red Raincoat, and there might be two new Redcoats added to the House of Horrors in the future.

  ”If I compare my haunted house to a horror scene, then its current rating should be between three and four stars, or even closer to four stars.”

  After inspecting the ghostly employees, Chen Ge ran off to look for the “living employees” again.

  If the house of horror wanted to grow big, relying entirely on the ghosts definitely wouldn’t work, and there had to be a few living employees.

  Mixing the living staff with the ghosts could bring a different feeling to the visitors.

  Chen Ge found the scissors, the drunkard and the doctor on the first floor, as well as Li Zheng who was in a coma.

  ”Where’s Jia Ming?” Chen Ge still cared more about the young man who had been hosted by the shadow for several years, and he definitely knew a lot of secrets about the shadow.

  ”When you guys fought, he dragged the police and ran frantically towards the stairs. We saw what was going on and followed him downstairs.” Scissors and the drunkard regained their freedom when Shadow used his full power to make the ghost babies appear, but there were still thin black threads representing the curse remaining on both of them.

  Chen Ge picked up the handcuffs on Li Zheng’s wrists, and it was fortunate that Li Zheng had handcuffed his hands with his own in order to prevent Jia Ming from escaping in the first place, otherwise, according to Jia Ming’s character, he would have never dragged Li Zheng along to escape.

  ”That guy took the key and ran away quite fast.” Jia Ming and the high school student called Kitano escaped, Chen Ge felt the need to catch them because they knew a lot of things they shouldn’t know.

  Thinking this in his heart, but Chen Ge naturally wouldn’t say it in front of other living people, he used his Yin pupil to check the bodies of several people and found that their situation was not optimistic.

  There were black lines floating in their eyes, just as if they had been hit by a descending spirit, and it was very scary to look at.

  Scissors and the drunkard were fine, they drank some of the blood threads prepared for the red-clothed stern ghosts in the restaurant, and their bodies showed very subtle changes, and it could be clearly felt that their body temperatures were maintained at a relatively low range.

  As for the doctor, his situation was worse, the curse mixed with the poison he drank earlier, his muscles began to atrophy, and although he was able to barely walk around, it was as if he had aged a dozen years.

  ”We’ve kind of shared the same suffering, you guys know a lot about me, and I’m also clear about the secrets of your hearts. Now that you guys are under a curse, I can’t just ignore it. Let’s do it this way, you guys will stay at my place first, and when I help you completely remove the curse and condition your bodies, then I will send you away.” Chen Ge said responsibly.

  ”You don’t have to take the responsibility on yourself, it was our choice to enter Liwan Town, in addition if it wasn’t for you, we would have already died, you saved us many times, it’s too late for us to repay you, how can we continue to trouble you?” The drunkard’s alcohol had long since sobered up and he was now very sober.

  ”If the curse isn’t removed, your lives may be in danger, we’ve all experienced life and death together, I can’t just stand by and watch you suffer from sickness.” Chen Ge had already collected all of his employees, and he patted his backpack.

  ”We’ve always been rescued by you, and now we have to stay at your place to trouble you, our conscience just can’t get over it.” Scissors suddenly spoke, “Tell you what, if there’s anything you need help with over there, we’ll do our best to help you! Don’t refuse, it’s the only thing we can do.”

  ”Yeah, you helping us lift the shadow’s curse is the same as saying you saved our lives again!” The drunkard and the doctor also looked at Chen Ge.

  ”I run a haunted house, and it’s crucial that I have enough manpower on my side, as you all can see, I have the most professional ‘actors’.” Chen Ge looked a little embarrassed.

  ”But we can’t live at your place for nothing! At least let us do what we can!”

  The drunkard and the others had reached this point, Chen Ge couldn’t refuse, and could only “reluctantly” agree: “Okay, but let’s say in advance, you guys come to my haunted house to help, I will give you the usual salary, after all, you also need to support your family and live, this is my only request, I hope you guys Don’t refuse.”

  Hearing Chen Ge’s words, the scissors few people felt warm as they sighed from the bottom of their hearts.

  ”Boss Chen, what a good man!”
