Chapter 0907: Long Time No See!
After roughly only twenty minutes, the sound of hurried footsteps resounded in the corridor again, and it seemed that many people were running towards the ward here.
”Boom!”
The closed door of the room was slammed open, and Li Zheng and two other police officers rushed into the ward with guarded faces.
”Chen Ge!” Li Zheng shouted Chen Ge’s name, his hand already pressed on his back waist, preparing for the worst.
”Team Li, I’m here!” Seeing Li Zheng’s familiar face, Chen Ge directly ran over, he couldn’t help but give Li Zheng a big hug, “Long time no see!”
Chen Ge’s voice carried a trace of fatigue that he couldn’t hide, and Li Zheng gently patted Chen Ge’s shoulder, “Didn’t we …… just meet yesterday? What’s wrong with you? Is it a head injury?”
”That’s not true.” Chen Ge let go of Li Zheng, “The culprit has already been taken away by the caretaker here, and should now be on his way to the Hanyang Central Hospital.”
”What has he done? Is this ward the first crime scene? You stayed here to protect the scene?” Li Zheng and Chen Ge were very familiar with each other, and this familiarity had already transcended the relationship between the police and the public; he would often treat Chen Ge as his own colleague in a trance, and a colleague with rich experience in “crime”.
”That guy is very dangerous and seems to be related to many children’s comas, as long as you put out the word that he’s been taken away by the police, there will definitely be a lot of parents of the students who will go looking for you.” Chen Ge didn’t lie, the door of the Psychic Ghost School introduced the remnants of a large number of students’ souls into the door after they lost their consciousness and obsession, all of those children turned into vegetable-like existences, and most of them were lying in hospitals, while others were brought home to be cared for attentively.
People usually know how to cherish only after they have lost, a good child suddenly comatose, many parents feel regret and self-blame in this long time, if they could have accompanied their children more and cared more about them, those children would not have gone to do stupid things.
There were many students who had been lured by the psychic ghost school, not only Hanjiang, but Chang’lu had also used the power of those parents in order to look for Chang Wenyu, so once the police publicized Chang’lu’s whereabouts, there would definitely be parents who would go and contact the police.
As for what they said, whether the police believed them or not was another matter.
Chen Ge wasn’t worried about Chang’lu exposing himself, that guy had been rushed by the will of the ghost school in a living person’s body and stayed in the blood mist for a long time, so it was still a question of whether or not he would be able to wake up.
”Causing a large number of students to fall unconscious is relevant? This is a big case.” When Li Zheng heard Chen Ge’s words, his first thought was not to question, but to think about how to take the next step, he subconsciously believed Chen Ge’s words, after all, this man in front of him had an extremely “brilliant” past.
”En, you guys hurry up and investigate, I’ll go back to the haunted house first, if there’s anything you need, just ask, I’ll fully cooperate with the investigation!” Chen Ge said that he would fully cooperate, but his body had already moved to the entrance of the ward.
”Don’t be in a hurry to leave, I still have a lot of things to ask you.” Li Zheng grabbed Chen Ge’s arm.
……
The investigation inquiry was much longer than Chen Ge expected, Li Zheng did not open the back door for Chen Ge because he was very familiar with him, one by one, all of the questions had been asked after more than an hour.
Outside the window, the sky has completely brightened, and it is almost time for the park to open for business.
Li Zheng also knew that Chen Ge was not easy, but also had to run the haunted house, in fact, Chen Ge was in a very poor state right now, with a look of being about to pass out: “That’s it for now, before the suspect wakes up, you’d better not go anywhere, honestly stay in the park, especially at night.”
”Understood.”
While Li Zheng and the other police officers went out to question the other doctors and witnesses, Chen Ge grabbed the pieces of the mirror on the ground, wrapped them in a bed sheet, and stuffed them into his backpack.
”The mirror that hid the painter’s memories was most likely broken on purpose by Bu Liao, it should be hiding amongst one of the fragments right now, ready to escape at all times, this guy is a lot smarter than the previous principal, he knows that he can’t escape for the time being, so he can only slowly stall for time.”
At eight o’clock ten, Li Zheng asked one of the police officers to go to the hospital to keep an eye on Chang Lone, and the other to stay at the mental hospital to continue the investigation, while he personally drove and prepared to send Chen Ge back to New World Paradise.
”No need, right?”
”Fasten your seatbelt, I’ll drive you back, and by the way, there’s something else I want to ask you alone.” Without any further ado, Li Zheng “invited” Chen Ge into the police car and then started the car.
Li Zheng drove very fast, and after entering the police car, his face became very serious.
”Team Li, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask directly, there’s no need to beat around the bush between us.” Chen Ge leaned on the back seat, the police car made him feel at ease, it was safe here.
”Chen Ge, I know that you probably want to investigate certain things, but you’re considered to have made a mistake by risking the name of the city precinct’s criminal investigation team, whether it’s for public or private reasons. You have a strong sense of justice, but don’t let it dominate you; sometimes, justice is not sinless.” Li Zheng was actually worried about Chen Ge when he said these words to him alone.
”Understood.”
”I’m a good judge of people, you lied, although I don’t know which sentence you lied about. Also, those mirror fragments should be important to you, right? If they are related to this case, after you use them, remember to hand them over to us, we have a professional inspection team ……” Li Zheng said for half a day, no one answered, he glanced at the rearview mirror and realized that Chen Ge had already fallen asleep holding his backpack and gift box.
The sleeping Chen Ge looked like a clean white sheet of paper, with no complicated mind, and all the sad things were shown on his face.
”Looks like he’s really tired.”
Li Zheng gently shook his head and drove the police car to the vicinity of the New Century Paradise before waking Chen Ge up, “Sleeping really hard, hurry up and get off the car for me!”
Carrying a large bag on his back, Chen Ge passed through the middle of the tourists waiting for the doors to open and jogged all the way.
Several employees were all standing in front of the House of Horrors, and they had been waiting for a long time.
”Boss!”
The unanimous cry of boss made Chen Ge quickly adjust his state, “No nonsense! All go to the dressing room and gather! Prepare to open for business!”
Pushing aside the guardrail, Chen Ge led all the employees into the dressing room, and he started to put makeup on them without stopping.
At nine in the morning, the gates of New Century Paradise opened, people flooded into the park, and a long line formed in front of the horror house.
After applying makeup to the employees, Chen Ge put the stern ghost employees in his backpack back into the various locations of the haunted house, let Old Bai and Old Zhou take charge of the order of the haunted house, and entered the employee lounge himself and fell into a deep sleep.
Chen Ge didn’t set his watch and slept until noon, when he was finally awakened by a banging knock on the door.
”Something happened?” Chen Ge couldn’t even bother to put on his coat and hurriedly opened the door.
”Chen Ge, Director Luo is looking for you! There’s something very important to talk to you about!” Uncle Xu stood outside the door with a somewhat strange expression.
”What is it? You probably reveal it so that I can be mentally prepared.” Chen Ge tensed up all of a sudden because the day after tomorrow, the Virtual Future Paradise was going to open, and they would face unprecedented pressure.
”Look at today’s news flash yourself.” Uncle Xu took out his cell phone and clicked on a page, and the headline of that news was eye-catching – Student in car accident coma for five years! Miraculously awakened! The first sentence that opened his mouth actually contained the New Century Paradise on the outskirts of Jiangxi!
