Chapter 0782 – This is the bond between us
The palm lines no longer continued to turn black, and the uneasiness that had been lingering in Chen Ge’s heart slowly dissipated, and he felt like he was breathing freely.
The silhouette hadn’t deceived him, and at the moment of life and death, the other party had made the most correct decision.
After the palm lines on Chen Ge’s heart stopped turning black, the silhouette’s body gradually became illusory, before he was clearly on the verge of condensing an entity.
”I still can’t trust you.”
Having taken advantage of the situation, Chen Ge was still not prepared to let the other party off the hook, there was only one chance, and he had to make good use of it.
The somewhat weak silhouette jumped anxiously when he heard Chen Ge’s words, he once again went to fight for the door handle, the result was another spike on the other side of his neck.
It was too vicious.
The black shadow’s features were blurred, no one could see his expression clearly at this moment, and after suffering two losses, he no longer dared to approach Chen Ge.
As an original ghost, the black shadow almost didn’t dare to imagine that he would be forced to this point by the person who had taken the place of death.
Blood was about to engulf the drawing room, everything here would be buried in blood, the black shadow waved his hands desperately, if he didn’t leave, his soul would really be scattered!
”You are a sinister, cunning, cruel and terrifying stern spirit, while I am just an ordinary person, the difference in our power is vast, how do you want me to trust you? I don’t understand the process of scapegoating, and I don’t know what the deeper meaning of the palm prints turning black is, so I can’t tell in case you’ve moved something on me.”
Chen Ge could also feel the changes taking place inside the painting room, a rare painting was dyed red with blood, the upside down picture was slowly returning to normal, the color of blood diffused over everything, the two people inside the room felt as if they were being slowly dragged into the middle of the deep sea by a force they couldn’t break free from.
Unable to speak, the dark figure bounced in place, his hands waving desperately in a very wide range of motion.
”Are you trying to say that you didn’t deceive me?” Chen Ge also knew that he couldn’t stay in this place for long, his body was pressed against the door of the room and he stood closest to the exit, so he could rush out at any time, “Forget it, I’ll trust you for once, but I hope to see your sincerity.”
The black shadow instantly understood Chen Ge’s meaning, it was hard for him to believe that he would be blackmailed by a person who was a scapegoat.
”You originally lived in the 413 dormitory, you should know a lot of things related to Lin Sisi, I need you to tell me all of those things, you can’t hide them.” Chen Ge spoke quickly.
The black shadow nodded frantically after hearing this, then was about to move forward, but Chen Ge rummaged through his pockets and pulled out another nail.
”Second thing, you and Lin Sisi live in the same dorm room, do you know the power-on password of his cell phone?” Lin Sisi’s cell phone was the most crucial of all the props Chen Ge had obtained, it was a pity that he didn’t have the password, so he couldn’t utilize this important prop.
There was a slight pause in the black shadow’s movements, and as he was about to express his thoughts, Chen Ge spoke again, “Don’t try to lie, his cell phone is right here with me!”
Taking out his cell phone from his pants pocket, Chen Ge directly slid the screen, “Tell me!”
Seeing that cell phone, the black shadow’s reaction was a little counterintuitive as he subconsciously took half a step back before he started to gesture a few numbers to Chen Ge.
”51413?”
Chen Ge felt that this number was a bit familiar, and when the black shadow gestured a number, he immediately entered one, and after all five numbers were entered, he finally succeeded in unlocking it.
”This is an important gain!”
Keeping the password in mind, Chen Ge gripped the door handle and left the drawing room at the first opportunity.
He was still a good enough person to not close the door from the outside to stop the black shadow from coming out after he left the drawing room himself.
Only after the black shadow also ran out from inside the door did Chen Ge close the door again.
While blood flowed everywhere inside the door, drowning everything, everything outside the door was normal and not affected in the slightest.
The reason why such a situation had occurred, Chen Ge guessed that it was most likely related to those paintings.
”Who was the person who painted those paintings? There are thirteen easels in there, there should be thirteen painters, yet their painting styles and painting themes are so similar, could it be that their teachers are the same person?”
With one problem solved and countless new questions flooding into his brain, Chen Ge stopped where he was and was frowning in thought when he suddenly felt a chill at his back.
Looking back, the black shadow was expanding, his features began to distort, his body began to twist, and all ten fingers became like the sharp claws of an animal.
After being so angry in the house just now, the black shadow was now harboring a belly full of fire.
”Kill me, who will be your scapegoat?” Chen Ge stretched out his hands, his expression even calmer than just now, “If my guess is right, everyone in this school is looking for a scapegoat, and there are very few suitable candidates.”
Taking the initiative to take a step forward, Chen Ge tilted his head to look at the hideous and terrifying black shadow, “You immediately went into hiding after successfully capturing me as a scapegoat, it seems that you yourself are afraid, worried that after you succeed, you will be targeted by other ‘people’ again, am I right?”
The dark sharp claws were hanging on both sides of Chen Ge’s neck, the black shadow’s heart was filled with resentment, he seemed to still hold a grudge against Chen Ge for stabbing him in the neck with a nail just now.
”I’m your scapegoat, you’re my original ghost, this is the deepest bond between the two of us, no one can replace it.”
Chen Ge’s expression gave off a very warm feeling as he reached out to hold the black shadow’s hand, but it passed through the middle of the shadow: “Not only are the two of us not enemies, but we are also allies with the strongest ties, think about it carefully? You can’t kill me, there’s no one to be your scapegoat if you do. And I’m just an ordinary person, I definitely won’t be able to survive in this school, I could be attacked by unknown ghosts and monsters at any time, you’re the only one I can rely on and trust, because I know you can’t possibly kill me.”
Sharp claws hovered next to Chen Ge’s neck, the black shadow thought about it properly, what Chen Ge said seemed to have a little bit of truth to it, except that there was such a harmony between the scapegoat and the original ghost, it still gave him a very eerie feeling.
”This school is full of hooks and killers, everyone has something in mind, cooperation and trust is almost impossible, but the two of us broke the spell, we are the perfect allies!” Chen Ge walked towards the black shadow: “Even if the scapegoat is completed, there is no way for you to leave this school, why don’t the two of us work together to find a way out.”
Looking at Chen Ge who was standing in front of him, the silhouette was no longer simply dismayed, he had never encountered such a situation before.
”I’m in the light, you’re in the dark, if we join forces, we’ll definitely bring many people a surprise.” Chen Ge was accomplishing something that was almost impossible to achieve, at least in this school, no one had ever done it before.
The black shadow’s body returned to its original state, he hesitated for half a day and gestured a few words with his hands.
”You want to know why I’m not afraid of you?” Chen Ge shook his head, “I’m not not afraid of you, I’m scared to death in my heart, I’m just holding it together. Alright, let’s not talk about that, what else do you know about this person Lin Si Si?”
