  ”This mission is related to the whereabouts of my parents, there is no reason to give up, looking at the mission description, it seems that as long as you keep your eyes closed and don’t open them, you can do it.”

  Chen Ge put away the black cell phone and looked at the white cat, “Only one person can go over there, the severe ghosts and obsessions all can’t be brought, and items related to the house of horrors can’t be brought, could it be that bringing these things over there will be detected by the Underworld Fetus?”

  The black cell phone demanded so, Chen Ge could only do so, he put on his jacket and found a bundle of sturdy rope in the drawer, tying one section to his wrist and one section to the white cat.

  ”Other people walk their pets with a leash because they are afraid that the pet will run around and not be able to find the pet; I tied the leash to the white cat because I am afraid that I will go to the wrong place by myself, and the white cat will not be able to find me, so it’s really like keeping a cat for a thousand days, but using it for a while.”

  The white cat that had been lying comfortably on the bed was now looking at Chen Ge alertly, ears perked up, eyes moving between the rope and itself.

  ”Go, I’ll take you to eat something delicious.” Chen Ge wanted to pick the white cat up, but the white cat grabbed the bed sheet and wouldn’t let go of its claws.

  ”Aren’t you felines all nocturnal animals? What are you doing staying in bed all the time?”

  ”If you don’t exercise and move, you won’t be able to run!”

  ”Don’t be afraid! I promise I won’t abandon you no matter what happens, do you see this rope? This is the strong bond between me and you!”

  ……

  ”Master, I’m going to the lamp factory across from the Jiangyuan neighborhood in the eastern suburb.” Chen Ge sat in the back of the cab with the white cat in his arms, he was now experienced and definitely didn’t tell the driver directly that he was going to those dangerous places to prevent the driver from refusing the ride.

  ”That place is a bit remote ah, what are you doing at the lamp factory at night?” The driver was observing Chen Ge through the rearview mirror, it wasn’t that he was too cautious, it was that a passenger like Chen Ge was too special, after 1:00 in the morning, taking a cat to run from the western suburb to the eastern suburb.

  ”The lamp factory is owned by my family, something happened over there, I’m going over to take a look.”

  ”Hasn’t that lamp factory gone out of business?” The driver was even more puzzled.

  ”Yeah, just because it’s closed down that’s why I have to go over there, do you think that if it’s closed down, that big factory will just throw it there and leave it alone?” Chen Ge’s tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction, seemingly not in a good mood.

  ”Don’t think I’m nagging, the eastern suburbs are not peaceful lately, the place you’re going to just had an incident a few days ago.”

  ”What happened?”

  ”That neighborhood across the street from the Lamp Factory, it seems that the husband had drunk too much and accidentally fell from the balcony, the most}human thing is that that drunk was my colleague who drove him home. Anyway, that place is kind of weird to say the least.” The driver started the car.

  ”I don’t believe in all this.” Chen Ge smiled indifferently, “My family always told me that money makes the ghosts go away, and you being afraid of ghosts only means that you don’t have enough money.”

  The driver was a bit speechless and stopped dissuading Chen Ge, who also happened to fall clean and seize the time to search for relevant information.

  Half an hour later, the cab sent Chen Ge to the eastern suburbs.

  Paying and getting out of the car, Chen Ge held the white cat and went straight to the Jiangyuan neighborhood, making the driver behind him look dumbfounded.

  ”The mission requirement is to start at two in the morning.” Chen Ge crossed the road and arrived at the entrance of the neighborhood.

  Two buildings stood in front of it, surrounded by darkness, looking desolate.

  It was the first time Chen Ge had returned here since moving, and the scene in his memory had long changed.

  ”Is there no security guard in such a big neighborhood?”

  The gate of the neighborhood was half open, and the guard’s house next to it was instead sealed and locked.

  Further inside, there were all kinds of flyers scattered on the path, and only two streetlights were lit on the side of the road, and one of them was still flickering and flickering.

  Chen Ge tilted his head to look at the two buildings on the left and right, one couldn’t see any light and was dead; the other building had a few scattered households on the ground floor with lights on, and clothes that hadn’t had time to be collected were hanging on the balcony.

  ”It shouldn’t be too much of a problem to have people living there, but why are all the lighted rooms concentrated on the ground floor?”

  Both buildings in the Jiangyuan neighborhood met the mission requirements, and for safety’s sake, Chen Ge chose the one with people living in it.

  As he approached the building with the white cat in his arms, he saw that the wall next to the entrance of the building was plastered with all sorts of announcements, from property owners urging owners to pay their bills to owners jointly complaining about the property, and there were also missing property and missing person announcements interspersed within.

  ”The management is chaotic, did the developer here run away with the money?”

  Chen Ge entered the stairwell, the hallway was on the left and the elevator was on the right.

  He first pressed the elevator to take a look, and he really couldn’t find the button representing the fourteenth floor on the control panel, and the thirteenth floor was directly above the fifteenth floor.

  After determining the number of floors, Chen Ge entered the hallway, he looked at the staircase in front of him, “Twenty-six steps per floor, thirteen steps is a section, there is a turning place in the middle, the height of the steps is about ……”

  He repeated the attempt a few times to get his legs used to the step height.

  ”The mission specifically requires that the building must have a basement without a fourteenth floor, and these two factors should also be taken into account.” Chen Ge lay on the corner of the stairs and glanced towards the ground floor: “There is a floor underground, it shouldn’t be inhabited, the room doors are all locked, I don’t know what they are for.”

  Then he raised his head again and looked towards the top of the stairs, layer after layer, interlocking with each other, as if they were steps leading to heaven.

  ”Only the first and fourth floors of the building have lights installed, without any sound it’s still on, indicating that it’s not a voice-activated light.” Chen Ge closed his eyes first and then opened them again, “I can still feel the change in light after closing my eyes.”

  Wanting to close his eyes and walk to the top floor in one breath was extremely difficult, it not only required guts, but also an amazing will to do so.

  ”The difficulty of the nightmare level daily quests is getting higher, is it because I’m slowly approaching the truth?”

  Unable to carry a Knight Ghost, Chen Ge could only prepare more from other aspects.

  He glanced at the time and took out a black cloth from his pocket, “The quest requires that you can’t open your eyes, but it doesn’t say that you can’t be blindfolded, so this should slightly reduce the difficulty.”

  The opaque black cloth could make the eyes less sensitive, but even if they were blindfolded, Chen Ge definitely wouldn’t sneakily open his eyes during the mission because those horrible things would probably burrow inside the black cloth.

  Stroking the white cat’s head, Chen Ge placed it on his shoulder: ”Little ancestor, you’ll be my eyes later, so don’t run around. If something particularly scary appears, you don’t have to remind me, unless you scratch and bite me when he tries to kill us both, understand?”

  There wasn’t much time left, Chen Ge didn’t care if the white cat understood his words or not, letting it stay honestly on his shoulder before taking out his cell phone.

  With ten seconds to go before 2:00 AM, he closed his eyes before tying the black cloth in front of his eyes again.

  ”It’s on.”

  After closing his eyes, the world was plunged into darkness as Chen Ge held onto the wall and took the first step.
