Chapter 0849 – Constantly Begging for Forgiveness, Holding Back, Never Touching the Sky
The pieces of the mirror fell to the ground, tinkling, and behind the scarlet, blood-colored mirror, the smiling human face was twisted and crooked.
The corners of his mouth cracked open, and the more he died, the happier he became, the more he couldn’t control his desire to laugh.
”We were called unsmiling, father once said we didn’t deserve a smile.” The man in the mirror looked as if he had remembered something happy, his lips parted and his piercing laughter could be heard through the mirror, as if what his father had said was the best joke in the world.
”Father?”
”He was a doctor at the hospital, he wasn’t a good father, but he was the greatest doctor I’ve ever seen.” The man’s maniacal eyes hid a hint of pain, a hint of horror, or a hint of fanaticism: “Other doctors just treat the sick, but he saves lives and kills people at the same time, he believes that angels and devils are hidden in the hearts of the people, and for that reason, he also built heaven and hell with his own hands.”
”Does hell mean that cursed hospital?”
”No, that’s heaven, except it’s a heaven that everyone wants to escape from!” The man in the mirror had completely exposed his nature, he looked at Chen Ge and smiled very happily, seeming to particularly enjoy talking to Chen Ge.
”Since it’s a paradise, why do you want to escape?” Chen Ge also had a short comment in his heart about the man in the mirror – crazy.
”That’s my father’s paradise alone, not ours.” The man in the mirror had his face pressed against the mirror, and the cracked mirror full of cracks imprinted on his face as if it had cut his face into pieces, which was very scary to look at.
”Heaven is already so scary, what will the hell your father built look like?”
”No one has ever seen hell, do you think anyone can stand in front of you and talk after seeing it?” The man’s eyes widened and the corners of his mouth cracked to the limits of humanity, as if he would rip his face off in the next moment, “Hey, why are you interested in that hospital, you know some information about it, and realized immediately that I was lying when I said that I was a teacher at the school, have you ever seen anything else before that didn’t make you laugh? Have you met my family? Or maybe you received an invitation to that hospital as well?”
This middle-aged man in the mirror was simply evil incarnate, he was very smart and projected a lot of information from just a few details.
Against people who looked obviously smart like this, Chen Ge usually didn’t talk nonsense with the other party, he secretly gave Xu Yin a gesture to find an opportunity to directly do the other party.
Regardless of whether the other party was a foe or a friend, after taking him out, he would become the sustenance for his own haunted house.
This was also the lesson that Chen Ge had constantly reflected and summarized after he fought with Dr. Gao.
”Forget it, no matter if you’ve met my family or received an invitation from that hospital, as long as you’re involved with that hospital, you’ll never be able to escape. He’ll keep appearing by your side, in various forms, until one day, when you open your eyes, you’ll suddenly find yourself lying on a cold operating table, starting your own game of curses.” The man’s tone did not sound like he was threatening Chen Ge, as if he was just stating a fact.
”I don’t need you to worry about my affairs.” Chen Ge stared at the mirror, “Did you just say you have other family members?”
”What? Can’t you see that? Like you, I was once a living human being, only that what accompanied you was affection and friendship, and what accompanied us was pain and hatred, living daily in a gloomy and desperate hospital, watching death and disease spreading until they crept up on us.”
”Pah!”
The man’s palm slapped the mirror hard, his body completely pressed on top of a crack: “Dad doesn’t like us to cry, so we can only laugh, we have to laugh when it’s hard, we have to laugh when we’re sick, and the more pain in our hearts the more we have to laugh and be happy! But he still doesn’t like us even though we’re laughing so hard, he says we’re laughing hard, that we’re not really laughing!”
The sound of a man’s laughter came from the mirror, his face squeezed amongst the cracks in the mirror, desperately banging against it, “Look at it, look at it! I’m laughing so hard, I’m obviously laughing so hard!”
Blood flowed out along the wound, the man’s face was scratched as he touched the blood at the corner of his mouth, “Isn’t it funny how we laugh every moment of every day, but we’re called not laughing?”
”I’m a person with a very low emotional quotient, I can’t understand what you’re laughing at, but if you tell me more information about the hospital and the school, I can consider helping you.” Chen Ge had dealt with many perverted lunatics, he was not a doctor and could not save those patients, all he could do was not listen to disbelief, stick to his own ideas and not be convinced by those people.
In fact, it was also very difficult to really want to convince Chen Ge, he had seen a completely different world, and it was not certain who was convinced by whom if he communicated deeply.
It was possible to explore and cut through, but there was no need for that.
”Looks like I guessed it, you have indeed met my family! Who could it be? My poorest older brother? The youngest and dumbest brother? Or the most physically complete sister? Or my younger sister? No way, if she met you, she would fall in love with you and then kill you without a second thought.”
”Can you be quiet for a moment?” Chen Ge felt that this man was very talkative when he exposed his nature and stopped hiding it, “From now on, I’ll ask and you answer.”
”Okay, I’ll tell you everything I know, you’ve met my family, I’m sure it wasn’t a pleasant memory, I ……” The man in the mirror pressed himself against the mirror, his body almost squeezing out of the mirror, the blood was flowing on the mirror, but he wanted to not feel the pain as much as he did, crazy and sick were no longer enough to describe him.
However, him doing so also made Chen Ge discover something else, this man who called himself Unsmiling, his whole body was blood red, a genuine red shirt!
Chen Ge thought back to the one in Liwan Town, Bu Liao, and he realized that all of this crazy family seemed to be in red.
”What is your relationship with that patient who escaped from the cursed hospital? Why did he trap you in the mirror?” Chen Ge went straight to the point, he said this with his mouth, but in his heart, he was calculating, this Red Clothes seemed to be at a weak point right now, taking him out might be able to bring out another half-bodied Red Clothes in his own staff.
”The two of us are working together, I can’t escape the hospital on my own, so I need a helper.”
”Then why are you in his mirror again?”
”Escaping the hospital, the goal has been accomplished, we both want to kill each other, it’s normal.”
”It’s normal?” Chen Ge still wasn’t used to crazy people’s thinking, “And then what? You were subdued by him and locked into the mirror?”
”None of us could help anyone, the plan was to escape the hospital and hide behind another door, but what we didn’t expect was that there was a very terrifying existence behind this door, it seemed to be on the same level as the hospital.” The man in the mirror pointed to the top of his head, “Do you see the eyes outside the window?”
”The eyes outside the window?” Chen Ge frowned, “You mean the blood-red sun that envelops the ghost school?”
”Yes, it’s the one that owns this place, and the few times my partner and I have fought have drawn its attention, so I wanted to leave myself a way out.” The man seemed to have read Chen Ge’s mind a long time ago, “We wanted to find a path that could only go in and out of the school, we worked together again and realized that there is a very special place in this school, there is not a single normal mirror to be seen in the entire campus.”
”You noticed that too?”
”The owner of the school seems unwilling to face himself, self-loathing, self-abandonment, he doesn’t want to see himself.” The man’s words made Chen Ge’s eyes widen as he figured out a very crucial point.
”You continue.”
”So we started looking for mirrors, and we made an unexpected discovery, in this school, every mirror is made of memories, and the mirrors hide the self that we once loathed. When people look back, they are looking at the person they once were. We explored many mirrors, but there was an accident while exploring this one, the one I was in was different from all the others, and I went in only to realize I couldn’t get out.” The smile on the man’s face was chilling to look at, “It’s such a shame that my companion didn’t follow me in after noticing the abnormality, I should have acted more realistically at the time.”
”Even in this situation, you’re still thinking about screwing over your teammates, you really are a hopeless scum.” Chen Ge carefully observed this last mirror, he also gradually realized the difference between this mirror and the other mirrors, the blood stains on the mirror surface were all imprinted inside the mirror, and there was a layer of dust that could not be wiped off the mirror surface, and the edges of the mirror also had traces of having been scorched by fire.
”Burned by fire, whose memories are hidden in this mirror? The painter? Or the first ‘door pusher’ of the Psychic Ghost School?” Chen Ge had wanted to directly finish off the man in the mirror, but he now dismissed the idea, if he wanted to finish off the other party, he would have to destroy the mirror or directly enter inside it.
Destroying the mirror was tantamount to saying that he had destroyed a very important clue, and entering the mirror but there was a high chance that he wouldn’t be able to get out.
Chen Ge suddenly realized that the unsmiling man in the mirror had turned the situation around inadvertently, if he wasn’t telling the truth but was deceiving himself, then this person would really be too scary.
”Such a smart and crazy guy, it’s still reassuring to turn into sustenance.” Chen Ge chanted in his heart without any expression on his face.
”Besides the mirror, what else have you guys found?” Chen Ge had no intention of entering the mirror for now, he just wanted to get as much information as possible.
”This school is a lot more dangerous than we expected, we can’t be fooled by appearances, in addition I also saw a lot of interesting things in this mirror, but I can’t tell you right now because I’m still in the mirror, and speaking out about this will be eaten by the things in the mirror.” The man had made it very clear that he knew a lot of information, but he had to wait until Chen Ge rescued him from the mirror before he would tell Chen Ge.
”I know what to do, Old Bai, carry this mirror on your back and let’s leave the infirmary first.” Chen Ge was going to wait until Zhang Ya woke up and then slowly play with No Smile, the best thing to do now was to ignore him, “Find some clothes scraps of cloth, anything to wrap the mirror around, I don’t want to see this guy’s face.”
The monster in the mirror is very dangerous, Chen Ge in order to prevent accidents from occurring, did not let Xu Yin and Bai Qiulin go back again, always on the alert, after all, sometimes the danger is found in a split second.
Chen Ge was the first to walk out of the hospital room, Sakura Bai and Li Bing were quite happy to see him come out and hurriedly came over, but when they saw Bai Qiulin and Xu Yin following Chen Ge, the two of them stiffly stopped in their tracks.
”Don’t be afraid, these are our own people.” Chen Ge briefly introduced Bai Qiulin and Xu Yin and led them out of the infirmary.
”That patient who is pretending to be a doctor must be found, only by catching him can we verify what Bu Liao said.” Chen Ge was also a bit concerned about that hospital, Bu Liao was right, he hadn’t accepted the mission about the hospital in the black cell phone, but things related to that hospital had begun to keep appearing in his life.
He didn’t know what would become of it if it continued to develop like this, and it made him a little uneasy.
”Let’s settle the matter at hand first, if it really comes to that and I’m desperate, the worst thing I can do is to break down and take the plutonic fetus with me to the cursed hospital, and we’ll all play it out together.”
The idea was good, but Chen Ge himself knew that the probability of success in doing so was very small.
”The only good news now is that I still have time, and this psychic ghost school mission is the key.” Chen Ge looked towards Yan Fei and Sakura Bai, both children were so weak that they even needed assistance to walk, to say that they possessed the qualifications to become a “door pusher”, I guess not many people would believe it.
”Zhu Long and Wang Yicheng they are in the memory was awakened, strength slowly recovered, is it I have to help Yan Fei and Sakura Bai recall the past to be able to do? But hasn’t Sakura Bai already recalled a lot of things? She even met her former friends from Twilight Sun High School …… Not right! Her memories didn’t mention anything about Sakura Red! The key memory she’s missing is in Sakura Red, and Sakurabaek can only be complete if we find that girl!”
For Chen Ge, Sakura White was different from the other Gate Pusher candidates, because of the relationship between the old principal and Twilight Sun Middle School, he had already treated Sakura White as one of his own people that he could safely rely on.
”I remember that the class Sakura Red is in is not far from the infirmary.” Chen Ge returned to the place where he had first met Sakura Red, “The old principal has been to the school many times, he should know of Sakura Red’s existence. In his heart, does he also consider Sakura Red as a relative?”
Accelerating his pace, Chen Ge was about to push open the door to the classroom where Sakura Red was, when a radio suddenly sounded in the corridor: “Emergency flash report! Please stay in the classroom and don’t walk around! Emergency Speed Report! ……”
The radio kept repeating the same sentence in very serious terms, as if something terrible had happened in the ghost school.
”The more in danger, the shorter the phrases of the radio warning would be… Painter and Chang Wenyu are starting to act?” Chen Ge hurriedly walked to the window, he realized that the blood mist was several times thicker than before, and there was something else in the fog that was crazily impacting the ghost school.
