Chapter 1050 – The Seventh Child
A book full of stories that were all recorded with cruelty and killing, its last page turned out to be a cozy dream.
Fingers stroking the handwriting on the books, exhaustion came like a tidal wave, Chen Ge hugged the book, closed his bloodshot eyes, and lay down on the ground.
In the ten days and nights behind the door, he had endured tremendous psychological pressure and had almost reached the edge of collapse.
After leaving Yu See’s world, he could no longer hold on.
With his backpack falling to his side, Chen Ge fell asleep, while on the single bed next to him, Yu See awoke from his sleep.
Draped in a thin blanket, Yu See glanced at Chen Ge and slowly buried his head in his chest.
Yu See’s mother, who was standing in the doorway, saw this scene, and she had no idea what had ever happened inside the house.
She just had a feeling that Yu See was the only one who was abnormal before Chen Ge came in, and after Chen Ge’s treatment, both of them now seemed to have gone crazy.
”What can we do about this?”
Yu See’s mother entered the house and tried to drag Chen Ge away, she tried and realized that she couldn’t drag Chen Ge away with her own strength, so she had to give up.
She walked out of the bedroom with a worried look on her face, and behind her emerged one blood-red figure after another.
If she had done anything bad just now, the whole building might have suffered.
At eight o’clock in the morning, Chen Ge was woken up by her cell phone alarm clock, and the blood in her eyes hadn’t completely faded.
Covering her head, which still hurt a little, Chen Ge glanced out the window, the sunlight shone into the bedroom through the gaps in the curtains, and the fully dressed Yu See was sitting in front of the desk.
”You’re awake?”
Hearing the ringing, Yu See turned around, he was fully dressed and seemed to be preparing to go out.
”Head still hurts a bit.” Chen Ge picked up his backpack and put everything away, “You should still remember that dream from last night, right?”
Yu See shook his head, “I can’t remember much, but I haven’t forgotten the words you said to me.”
He handed Chen Ge the several pages of white paper that he had organized on his desk, “All of my sins are written on it, I will go and meet with Teacher Zhang for a while, and then I will go to the police station to turn myself in.”
The contents on the white paper were shocking, full of thoughts filled with malice and vile curses, with three things being the most serious.
The first incident was when he was very young, at the instigation of the Underworld Tire, he nearly poked out the eyes of a neighbor’s child.
The second was when he ran away from home in junior high school, he completely gave himself over to the Undertow and connived at it to complete the layout of his nine children.
During this period, the Underworld Tire had repeatedly hurt others, including Wu Jinpeng’s younger brother’s hand that had been injured by a fan.
When the Underworld Tire tried to deprive the voice from Wu Sheng, Wu Kun, whose IQ was far below that of an ordinary human being, was not afraid of the Underworld Tire and tried desperately to stop it, but unfortunately, he was not a match for the Underworld Tire at all.
The third thing had to do with Yu See’s real father, if he hadn’t met that teacher, Yu See might have been forced by the Stygian Fetus onto a desperate path that he couldn’t turn back from by now.
”I knew that he was using me, from the very beginning I knew that there was no way he would choose me.” Yu See looked at the white paper filled with writing in the Chen singer, “I am the same person as him, he hates people like us from the bottom of his heart, and his deepest hatred stems from himself.”
Yu See was the living person who had spent the longest time with the Undertow, and he should be considered one of the people who knew the Undertow best.
”Since you know that the Underworld Tire is using you, why do you still help him?” This was something Chen Ge couldn’t understand.
”As I said, he and I are the same person. For a moment, I felt that he was my only friend.” Yu See’s body was weak as he retrieved the pieces of white paper and pulled open the bedroom curtains.
The sunlight shone into the bedroom after a long time, Yu See looked at the scenery outside the window, “This world is actually quite beautiful.”
Putting the pages of white paper into his book bag, Yu see turned his back to the sunlight, opened the bedroom door, and walked out of this hut that took care of him as much as it could.
In the corridor, Yu See’s mother was filled with incredulity when she saw Yu See walk out of the bedroom fully dressed.
”Son ……”
”I want to go out for a walk.”
”Okay, fine!”
The security door opened and Yu See left with his school bag on his back, Yu See’s mother rushed to the bedroom and looked at Chen Ge with a face full of shock: “How did you do it? Yu See’s illness seems to have gotten much better! He even took the initiative to ask to go for a walk outside, this is unbelievable!”
”Yu See wasn’t sick in the first place, he just doesn’t know how to love the world and the people around him.” Chen Ge stared at Yu See’s mother, “If you don’t want Yu See to be like he was before, sit down and talk to me, and this time, please don’t lie and hide.”
Through the conversation, what the meditating fetus behind the door had said was verified.
Yu See was indeed an illegitimate child, his father was hell bent on getting rid of them as a mother and son, while his mother used him as a tool of blackmail.
He grew up not knowing what love was, and as a result, he was used by the Plutonic Fetus, and his malice and ugliness were infinitely amplified, eventually causing his psyche to begin to twist.
Yu-mi’s mother felt guilty for Yu-mi, she took care of him in every way, but at the same time, she wanted to raise Yu-mi to be even better than his father, so she was very strict with him.
There was almost no socializing or entertainment, as long as they did well in their studies and possessed special skills, it was enough.
After the in-depth communication came down, Chen Ge also discovered a deeper problem.
Yu See’s mother had known that Yu See had psychological problems a long time ago, and after Yu See had acted dangerously towards others several times, she didn’t realize the severity of the problem, instead, she just stonewalled and sheltered, causing Yu See to miss out on opportunities to be corrected over and over again.
”It’s not entirely his own fault that Yu See has become like this.” Chen Ge lifted his backpack, “If you have the chance, you’d best go and meet that teacher who was dismissed because of Yu See, the person who really saved Yu See is her.”
After figuring everything out, Chen Ge was ready to leave.
”Wait.” Yu See’s mother stopped Chen Ge, “Although I don’t know what method you used, you did help Yu See open his heart, how much does this treatment cost? If Yu See traps himself in his room again in the future, how can I contact you?”
”I don’t rely on this to earn money.” Chen Ge stood in the bedroom and scanned around, finally picking up a clay sculpture on Yu See’s desk, “This clay sculpture will serve as the payment you pay me.”
He put the clay sculpture with Yu See’s name on it into his backpack and left Yu See’s house.
Taking the elevator to the first floor, Chen Ge walked into the safe passage as he squatted on the ground and looked at his shadow.
”When will you wake up, I have a lot of questions I want to ask you.”
Taking out the clay mold with Yu See’s name from his backpack, Chen Ge placed it on his shadow.
Black and red blood gushed out from the clay figurine and seeped into the shadow, and an oppressive and terrifying aura was slowly awakening.
”Find all the remaining clay figurines, and you should be able to wake up.”
Those things that happened in the world behind the door Chen Ge hadn’t forgotten either, and he truly understood that girl in his shadow.
Lifting his backpack, Chen Ge rushed over before the New Century Paradise opened.
He didn’t say anything, and as soon as he returned, he hurriedly opened the doors to give the employees a chance to put on their makeup and prepare for business.
After a delay of ten minutes before the haunted house started to receive visitors, Chen Ge was also very upset in his heart, and he personally ran to the side of the visitor queue and gave the waiting visitors water and some of New Century Paradise’s small gifts.
Chen Ge was famous on the internet, and many tourists started taking pictures as soon as they saw him, even causing quite a commotion.
”If there’s a day when my haunted house just can’t operate, I can consider switching to being an internet celebrity.”
There were no accidents in the haunted house business, the tourists entered in an orderly manner, and Chen Ge was relieved.
After he said hello to Uncle Xu, he walked out of New Century Paradise alone with his backpack.
”This boss of mine is too non-existent.”
There wasn’t much time left until the birth of the Plutonic Fetus, Chen Ge called Li Zheng and after asking where Zhen Zhen was, he directly took a taxi over to look for him.
In the cab, Chen Ge took out his black cell phone, and there were indeed unread messages on it.
”It should be that I received this message when I came out from inside the door.” Chen Ge slid the screen and tapped on the unread message.
”The four-star trial quest Underworld Fetus has completed five-ninths of the quest, the Underworld Fetus has lost the emotions of the living and can no longer curse you through your favorite person! Lucky red-clad favorites! Your time is running out!”
”The four-star trial quest Plutonic Fetus is six-ninths complete, and Plutonic Fetus has lost his heart! His most prized possession has been stolen, and his strength has been greatly diminished! Attention! Lucky red-clad favorites! Your time is running out!”
Looking at the two messages on his black cell phone, Chen Ge directly froze.
”How is that possible? I only entered the world behind Yu See’s door last night and helped Yu See retrieve the love he was deprived of, and I only accomplished one task! Why is the heart of the Underworld Fetus missing as well?!”
Frowning, Chen Ge’s brain raced, and a brilliant light flashed in his eyes as he thought of a possibility.
”It was the Cursed Hospital’s Unsmiling who stole the Underworld Fetus’s heart!”
Chen Ge still had an impression of the child who was deprived of his heart by the Underworld Fetus, and at that time, Chen Ge had even stumbled upon Bu Laughing in front of his house, but he didn’t clash with Bu Laughing at that time.
”Bu Laughing represents the cursed hospital, and they also have their eyes on the Underworld Fetus, and that child with congenital heart disease is the child chosen by the Underworld Fetus!”
Last night Chen Ge entered the world behind Yu See’s door and took away the love that was taken away from him by the Stygian Fetus.
It was also on the same night that Bu Liao made a move on the child with the heart problem, and they stole the heart that was deprived by the Stygian Fetus.
”Why did the cursed hospital hit on the Stygian Fetus as well? What is the relationship between them and the Underworld Fetus?”
Chen Ge remembered another thing, every time he entered the world behind the door of the child chosen by the Underworld Fetus, a black iron door would appear behind him.
The door seemed like the door of a confinement room, with blood stains vaguely visible on it and the faint odor of disinfectant still lingering.
The world behind the door was woven from the memories of those children, but that black iron door was the memories of the Underworld Fetus himself.
”Could the black iron door be one of the doors in the cursed hospital? The Underworld Fetus was once imprisoned in that hospital?” Chen Ge used to think of the Underworld Fetus and the Cursed Hospital separately, but now he suddenly realized that there might also be some sort of connection between the Underworld Fetus and the Cursed Hospital.
”Evil is contagious, who was the person who initially created the evil?”
Chen Ge didn’t have any good feelings towards that cursed hospital, he couldn’t wait for Stygian Fetus to die with that hospital, the problem was that the cursed hospital was afraid that they were also playing the same idea as Chen Ge, they wanted Chen Ge and Stygian Fetus to lose both of them, and they themselves would sit back and reap the benefits.
”In addition to being careful of the Underworld Tire, we also need to be wary of that hospital.” Chen Ge was very calm: “I was only able to take out Underworld Tire’s impersonation of Du Ming’s mother by utilizing nearly ten Red Clothes, and the fact that the cursed hospital was able to steal Underworld Tire’s heart means that their power is definitely not weaker than mine! It’s likely that there are top-tier red clothes present!”
With some impatience in his heart, Chen Ge kept urging the driver, and ten minutes later he arrived at the city precinct.
”Team Li, where’s Zhen Zhen? Can I meet him? After all, I’m considered his savior anyways.”
”Over at the duty room, that kid is very understanding, and all of us like him very much.” Li Zheng was originally busy with other things, when he saw Chen Ge come over, he directly put down the matter at hand, “Let me take you there.”
”There’s no rush, I still have something I want to ask.” Chen Ge walked over to Li Zheng, “Earlier, I asked you to check on that child with congenital heart disease ……”
”He passed away in the hospital last night.” Li Zheng pulled a document out from the table, “That child is called Nie Xin, suffering from congenital heart disease, and being able to last until now is actually already a miracle.”
”Passed away? Yesterday night?” Chen Ge clenched his teeth, he was eighty percent sure that this was done by No Smile.
A human life was lost like this, he was obviously still so young and hadn’t even seen the world properly yet.
”I should have gone over earlier.” Chen Ge blamed himself somewhat.
The children chosen by the Underworld Fetus were all pitiful people, so Chen Ge had always been trying to find ways to help them as well.
When Chen Ge entered the world behind the door, he would often find those children’s abilities that had been stripped away by the Underworld Fetus, and then return that ability back to those children, making those children whole.
But the others, whether it was Jia Ming, or Bu Liao, they didn’t care about those children’s lives at all, they would do whatever it took to obtain the residual obsession of the Underworld Tire.
”Are Nie Xin’s parents alright?”
”En, the child’s parents are still emotionally stable, but the attending doctor seems to have some problems, he fell into a coma last night after the surgery, and has yet to wake up.”
Chen Ge asked for the name of that attending doctor, and then led by Li Zheng to the duty room of the city precinct.
Before he could walk there, Chen Ge heard laughter in the duty room.
Pushing open the door to the room, a female police officer was teasing Zhen Zhen.
Seeing Chen Ge come in, Zhen Zhen jumped off the bed and hid behind the policewoman, he seemed to be a little bit afraid of Chen Ge, this scene was not expected by anyone.
Putting down his backpack, Chen Ge walked to Zhen Zhen, “You don’t recognize uncle?”
Zhen Zhen nodded and then shook his head, he seemed to see another figure in Chen Ge, that figure made him feel both familiar and uneasy.
It took a while for Zhen Zhen to return to normal, he held Chen Ge’s hand and even handed Chen Ge the candy on the table.
”Zhen Zhen, uncle came over this time because he wanted to ask you something.” Chen Ge took the candy that Zhen Zhen handed him, “When you were held hostage by Jia Ming, besides Liu Wen and Nie Xin, did you sense any other children?”
