Chapter 0944: Who Tugged on My Hand

　　Chen Ge possessed the two talents of mortuary and living dolls, and had made hundreds of dolls with his own hands, he trusted his judgment: ”This face is 80% similar to the face of the child in the photo, the question is why did I touch such a face on the wall? Could it be that the child on the manhunt has been killed? The body is related to the wall?”

　　Slowly retracting his arm, Chen Ge remained standing in place, the surroundings were quiet, there was no sound, nor could he smell any special odor.

　　”The couple quarreling on the second floor lost their child, the child’s name is Dabao, the missing person notice outside the building is most likely posted by them.”

　　”The couple on the second floor were looking for the lost child, but I touched the child’s face on the wall of the building, did the child turn into a ghost and return to the building, or was he killed inside the building? Could the murderer be a resident of the building?”

　　The more Chen Ge thought about it, the more he thought it was possible, the husband went out late at night and his wife, who was pregnant with their second child, didn’t lock the door and chased after him, under normal circumstances, the kid who was left alone in the house shouldn’t have slipped out by himself, unless he saw something or an acquaintance called out to him outside the door.

　　”Was the murderer a neighbor?”

　　The word neighbor was very common, but to Chen Ge the word had a different meaning, as this nightmare level daily quest he was working on was named – Neighbor.

　　Taking a step forward, Chen Ge felt that it would be more reassuring to hold onto the wall, but he stopped when his palms were about to touch the wall, the scene just now had given him a mental shadow, and he was worried about touching something strange again.

　　Fingers fell one by one, after touching the cold hard wall skin, Chen Ge sighed in relief, if not necessary, he did not want to touch those passing “people”.

　　”I’m just here to complete my mission, there’s no need to explore what has happened here, I just need to close my eyes and walk to the top of the building, the rest has nothing to do with me.” Chen Ge said and took another step forward, but just as he moved his body, he suddenly felt the corner of his coat being tugged by something.

　　”It’s that child?” Chen Ge froze on the stairs, he couldn’t see anything with his eyes tightly closed and could only wait for the other party to let go.

　　After about five seconds, Chen Ge took another step forward, he could clearly feel a force behind him pulling him.

　　The other party had no intention of letting go, and Chen Ge didn’t dare to do it the hard way, he tried to take a step back, and that pulling force obviously decreased.

　　”There seems to be something that doesn’t want me to leave.”

　　A very scary thought surfaced in his heart, Chen Ge slowly crouched his body down and asked in a small voice towards his back, “Dabao?”

　　The pull instantly disappeared for a moment, but it quickly returned to normal.

　　”Is it really you?” Chen Ge tried to slow down his speech as much as possible, “Your mom and dad are looking for you, so quickly go home.”

　　I don’t know if it was the words Chen Ge said that irritated the other party, but he felt the pull behind him suddenly become bigger, as if it was trying to drag him into the wall.

　　”Wait, if you don’t like your mom and dad and don’t want to go home, then I can accompany you!” Chen Ge immediately changed his words.

　　”Actually, my childhood wasn’t that great, my parents were always arguing over trivial things, and seeing their horrible looks, I could only hide in the corner by myself. Other people’s homes were hot and bustling at dinner, but my home was always cold and quiet, and occasionally when a family of three would get together, it would always end unhappily.”

　　It seemed that no one had ever said anything similar to him before, and Chen Ge could feel the pull behind him diminish a bit.

　　”Arguing, breaking and smashing items in the house, their anger would sometimes spill over onto me, one inexplicable scolding after another made me live a careful life, I wouldn’t even dare to cry very loudly.” Chen Ge sighed softly, “Even if I grow up now, those things that happened in the past will not be forgotten, the wounds have not been erased by time, but rather with the passage of time, I slowly learned to adapt to the wounds.”

　　Chen Ge squatted on the stair step, he turned to a darkness and muttered, “Isn’t it pathetic? I’m just a child who can’t get the love of an adult, yet I have to force myself to be an understanding adult.”

　　That pull gradually weakened, and Chen Ge’s words seemed to have resonated with the other party.

　　”I’ve experienced that feeling of being alone, and because of that, I’ve become sensitive and skeptical of everything, I know that it’s not a good feeling, so if you don’t mind, I can be your friend, I don’t want you to experience the same kind of sadness I once felt.” The force behind him disappeared completely, but Chen Ge still kept his posture motionless, an adult’s response to a child is a mirror, a good response allows the child to see an excellent version of himself, while a bad response is like a ha-ha mirror, which will give the child a distorted perception.

　　Although Chen Ge doesn’t have children, he has dealt with them a lot, and he knows exactly how he should respond to a person.

　　Dabao’s family was unfortunate, and Chen Ge was willing to help each other if he could.

　　There was no sound around him, his clothes weren’t being pulled anymore, and the child seemed to have left.

　　Chen Ge couldn’t see anything, his hand pressed against the wall and he didn’t touch anything rare again, “Don’t you worry that I’ll leave, I’m just going to take a trip to the roof of the building, and I’ll be back when I’m done with things.”

　　Speaking these words into the darkness, Chen Ge slowly got up, he was holding onto the wall and was about to walk upwards when the hand near the railing suddenly felt a hint of coldness, as if someone had shoved a piece of ice into his palm.

　　His fingertips trembled, and Chen Ge’s five fingers closed, and he was certain that his hand had been grabbed by another hand.

　　Goosebumps instinctively rose from his neck, Chen Ge stayed in place for two seconds, then gripped that small hand with force, “It’s fine for us to go together, but you have to remember one thing, when you encounter danger, you have to hurry up and run away, don’t worry about me, do you understand?”

　　Holding that hand, Chen Ge continued upwards, he smoothly walked from the seventh floor to the eleventh floor, all without encountering any accidents in between.

　　But just when he came to the eleventh floor, the elevator in the corridor rang and the door opened, it seemed that someone had taken the elevator late at night and ran to the eleventh floor.

　　Not knowing whether the other party was a person or a ghost, in order not to cause any misunderstandings, Chen Ge stopped his steps and did not move any further.

　　Footsteps sounded in the corridor of the eleventh floor, followed by the sound of keys colliding with each other, then the key was inserted into the lock, the card spring popped, and the security door was opened.

　　Just when Chen Ge thought that the other party was going to enter the room, a huge force came from the other side of the corridor, someone grabbed his left arm, seemingly desperately trying to drag him into the room where the door had just been opened!

　　His body lost its balance, and the blindfolded Chen Ge almost fell over, when another force pulled on his right hand, trying its best to stop him from being taken away.
