Chapter 1140 – Xinhai, I’m coming
”People from the Hanyang City Branch?” Teacher Wang frowned when she heard those words, “I never said I wanted their help, you should let him go back, they can’t help anyway.”
”Teacher Wang, you’ve been conditioning your body and organizing yourself, you probably don’t know yet.” That school staff member had a smile on his face, “In the last half year, the Hanyang City Branch has solved several heavy and big cases one after another, they’ve been through hundreds of battles, even if you look at the whole province that’s still the elite of the elite.”
”This heart disease of mine was planted in the Hanjiang City Branch, I have nothing to talk with them, and I don t care how many cases they have actually solved …… “Mr. Wang seems to have worked in the Hanjiang City Branch before, but for various reasons, he seems to have a very bad relationship with the city branch: “Let him go, they have so many cases in the city branch, they shouldn’t be able to spare any manpower.”
The staff looked helplessly at the police officer beside him, and that older police officer took the initiative to walk towards Mr. Wang: “Brother Wang, Team Yan is back, he’s in charge of the city branch now.”
”Team Yan?”
”Twenty years ago, the young man who found out that there was something wrong with the case two weeks earlier than you and asked for the case to be overturned, he is now in charge of the Hanjiang City Branch. We’ve also solved big cases repeatedly under his leadership.” That old policeman knew Mr. Wang, “Brother Wang, the current city precinct is not the same as it used to be, I also came over this time because of Team Yan’s intention, he still wants to see you if he can, after all, you were the only one who had supported him at that time.”
Mentioning Team Yan, Teacher Wang fell silent, “I don’t have the face to see him.”
Closing the notes in his hand, Teacher Wang handed them over to Zuo Han: “Haven’t you always suspected that that haunted house is really haunted? Perhaps this note can help you figure something out.”
”Teacher Wang?”
”I’ve rested, we’ll leave for Xinhai today.” It was as if Teacher Wang had changed into a different person, the aura he exuded was completely different from before.
”Your character hasn’t changed at all.” The staff shook his head, “We’ve prepared a car for you, and we’ll leave at 2:00 p.m. Before that, it’s better for you to take a good rest.”
……
Stretching, Chen Ge was woken up by the alarm clock, and after he simply washed up, he hurriedly ran to open the door.
Since obtaining the black phone, he had lived every day to the fullest, no matter if it was day or night, almost all of his time had been utilized.
After applying makeup to his employees, Chen Ge watched them chatting in the dressing room, and he felt relaxed as well, “It would be great if I could always live like this in the future.”
After all the makeup was done, Chen Ge briefly held a morning meeting to discuss the future direction with the employees.
”You guys are now very seasoned haunted house actors, experienced and able to handle all kinds of emergencies, I’m very relieved to leave the haunted house scenes in your charge.”
”Boss, why do I hear your tone, it feels like you’re going on a long trip?” Xiao Gu was wearing a Dr. Shattered Skull jacket, his hands pulling on the Shattered Face mask.
”Luo Dong bought the biggest haunted house in Xinhai, I’ll go there to open a branch first for the next period of time, and I’ll come back only after they’ve stabilized.” Going to Xinhai to open a branch was secondary, Chen Ge’s main purpose was to take out the cursed hospital.
Right now, all the clues pointed to that hospital, and his missing parents were most likely there as well, so he had to go over there.
”Boss, our side has just stabilized, would it not be good to open a branch at the risk of opening a branch?” Zhang Jingjiu had taken a beating from society and was more conservative.
”Our roots are still the House of Horror in Hanjiang, that store in Xinhai can only be considered an experiment.” Chen Ge looked at the several employees, “Next I’ll assign the work, when I leave, the scenes on the ground will be taken care of by Xu Wan, the spare key of the haunted house will also be given to Xu Wan for the time being, Xiao Gu, if you encounter any problems, you should communicate more with Xu Wan and Uncle Xu.”
”Good.”
”The underground scenes will be handled by Wu Jinpeng.” Chen Ge looked at the handsome uncle with a single ponytail.
”Me? No, no, I can’t do it.” Wu Jinpeng waved his hand repeatedly.
”Don’t worry, someone will help you. This is the list, later on you’ll go to the underground scene and communicate with them more.” All of the people in this room were their own people, and most of the living employees had a lifelong friendship with Chen Ge and were completely trustworthy.
Chen Ge handed Wu Jinpeng a list with the names of Dr. Wei, Old White, and a few others.
After seeing this list, Wu Jinpeng slowly calmed down.
”After finishing the arrangements on the side of Hanjiang, next I’ll talk about the people who are going to Xinhai with me.” Chen Ge looked towards Zhang Jingjiu and Qu Changlin: “Changlin you yourself have worked in that haunted house, I will give you the task of designing the scenes and various organs for that haunted house, from today onwards you will be the person in charge of the scene props there.”
Qu Changlin was extremely good at making dolls and various haunted house props, he himself was Shangguan Light Hong’s employee, but was poached by Chen Ge.
”Shangguan Light Hong didn’t utilize your talents, now I’m giving you a stage big enough for you to show off.” Chen Ge was also considered to have fulfilled his promise to Qu Changlin, when Qu Changlin was just an unpopular bottom worker, now he had transformed into the chief designer of the New Sea Haunted House, which was a direct jump of several levels.
”Many thanks boss!” This thanks, Qu Changlin was from the bottom of his heart.
”Qu Changlin is responsible for the props and scene design aspects, and leave the rest to Zhang Jingjiu.” Chen Ge valued Zhang Jingjiu, this employee had progressed at a rapid pace after he rescued him from Liwan Town, he familiarized himself with the operation of the haunted house in just a few days, and was often able to give Chen Ge some unexpected help, for example, when he was confronted with Liu Gongbang on the internet, it was Zhang Jingjiu that led some of his fans to get Liu Gongbang to bite the hook.
In terms of business operations and human relations, Zhang Jingjiu did a better job than any of his employees.
Now that they had gone to a brand new place, they were in need of such a person, plus Zhang Jingjiu seemed to be a rich second-generation man himself, and his family had been operating in Xinhai for many years.
Combining several aspects, Chen Ge decided to make Zhang Jingjiu the acting store manager.
”Boss, I’m afraid of ……”
”There’s nothing to be afraid of, you’re the most suitable candidate.” After Chen Ge gave a few more explanations, he let the employees return to the middle of their respective scenes and started a new day of business.
”Soon, I’ll be using the nightmare quest bonus times drawn from the carousel today, and once I’ve done this nightmare level daily quest, I’ll be able to think about going to the New Sea.”
What should be done Chen Ge had also done, the ghosts in the black cell phone carousel were almost drained, although there were still some hidden secrets in Hanyang City, but to explore those secrets would take weeks or even months, Chen Ge could no longer afford to wait.
”Laying out the layout earlier and sending Little Sun in as soon as possible is the most important thing.”
After seeing Little Sun’s ability, Chen Ge now desperately wanted to send Sun to the Cursed Hospital.
The House of Horrors was becoming more and more popular on the internet, many foreign tourists came over to visit, and the park’s revenue was growing every day, but on the contrary, the Virtual Future Paradise was having all sorts of problems.
The two managers had been hospitalized, and there seemed to be an internal struggle for power, and many basic services had not kept up, affecting the visitor experience.
Overall, New Century Paradise had stabilized the situation, and the next step was to try to overtake it step by step.
By noon, Chen Ge suddenly received a phone call.
It was from an older sister who told Chen Ge that the doctor that Chen Ge had previously introduced to Jiang Ming suddenly couldn’t be contacted.
The communication had been good and the cochlear implant surgery was ready, but the doctor suddenly lost contact, so Jiang Ming’s mother and son were especially anxious.
Chen Ge carefully asked the elder sister a few questions, and only then did she realize that Jiang Ming’s mother had already taken Jiang Ming to Xinhai, and they had found a cheap rental house with the help of the community elder sister.
The surgery was originally planned for tomorrow, but the doctor had lost contact, and now they were all panicked.
”It can’t be delayed any longer, I’m going to make a trip to Xinhai today.” Chen Ge knew very well that that doctor’s state was not right before, and it was likely that he lost his connection because he had been struck by the cursed hospital.
If he rushed over now, he might still have a chance to save that doctor’s life.
As human life was at stake, Chen Ge didn’t hesitate and went straight back to the house of horrors, informing Qu Changlin and Zhang Jingjiu to pack up their things after work today and go directly to the New Sea Haunted House to meet up tomorrow.
Because Qu Changlin himself had worked at the haunted house, Chen Ge didn’t need to explain the address.
Lifting up his backpack, because of the suddenness of the incident, Chen Ge only brought most of the red clothes and some of the most dangerous prickly employees with him.
”Let Old White take care of the white cat for now, leave Dr. Skullcrusher’s jacket with Xiao Gu, and I’ll take away a few sets of the newly drawn clothes, so I might be able to use them.”
Haunted house props like the Skull Crushing Hammer, which had a slightly grisly look, had a hard time with the security check, so Chen Ge finally decided to find a way to charter a car to go to Xinhai.
Taking out his cell phone, Chen Ge dialed Li Zheng’s number: “Brother Zheng, I have something I want to report to you.”
”What are you reporting to me? Make it sound like you’re from our Criminal Investigation Division, if it’s not important wait for me to get off work and then we’ll talk, the case in the Jiu Hong neighborhood hasn’t been dealt with yet.” Li Zheng’s heart “thumped” when he received Chen Ge’s call.
”It’s like this, a doctor surnamed Fang in Xinhai has suddenly lost his connection, and based on all of his previous behavior, I suspect that he is probably in a very dangerous situation.”
”How did you know about Xinhai’s doctor losing contact?” With a human life involved, Li Zheng did not dare to be careless.
Chen Ge told him how he knew Dr. Fang and that Jiang Ming needed cochlear surgery.
”It’s hard for me to deal with you like this! I can only help you contact the police over in Xinhai right now, tell them the seriousness of the matter, and have them investigate.” Li Zheng had his own difficulties, he was a police officer from Hanjiang and couldn’t just meddle in Xinhai’s case.
”Brother Zheng, can you find someone to make him go with me to Xinhai? I definitely won’t be able to convince the people on Xinhai’s side if I go by myself, and they probably won’t believe me either, which would be a waste of the most precious time. It might be because of the tug-of-war that the best time for rescue will be missed.” What Chen Ge said was also the truth, if the Hanjiang police hadn’t cooperated with Chen Ge several times and were clear that Chen Ge had never lied, they wouldn’t have trusted Chen Ge so much.
Human life was at stake, and Li Zheng also knew that Chen Ge probably wasn’t lying, he paused for a long time before saying, “We really can’t spare any manpower on our side, but I heard from Yan team that Old Wu is going to be sent out on a mission to Xinhai this afternoon, so you can go with him.”
”Thank you so much! Please ask again, how did he get to Xinhai?”
”In a car from the Hanjiang Academy of Forensic Sciences, the mission he’s on seems to be related to a certain teacher from that academy as well, this may not necessarily work out, I’ll go and ask for instructions from Team Yan first.” Li Zheng hung up the phone, Chen Ge carried two large bags and directly took a taxi to the School of Forensic Medicine.
While on the way, Li Zheng passed along the good news that Team Yan agreed to send Chen Ge and Lao Wu to Xinhai together in a car from the Hanjiang Academy of Forensic Sciences.
At 1:30 pm, Chen Ge finally contacted Lao Wu, he put the two big bags into the trunk, and as soon as he got into the car, he saw Mr. Wang’s iron face.
Having just been stunned once by the person in front of him, and now they were sitting together again, Teacher Wang had a feeling of daring to be angry, and it seemed like he was a little scared of Chen Ge from the bottom of his heart.
”Teacher Wang, let me introduce you, this is Chen Ge, who assisted us in solving the apartment hidden corpse case, the abandoned school well hidden corpse case, the random murder case of the third mental hospital, and Jia Ming’s wife murder case …… ” Old Wu casually named a whole bunch of cases, and listening to it, Mr. Wang was confused.
”It feels like you guys are very close, just like coworkers.” Teacher Wang re-sized Chen Ge, he couldn’t figure out how a haunted house owner could assist the police in solving so many multiple cases, could it be that haunted house owners had hidden professional attributes?
”Pretty much, there was a week when I saw him six times, we were working three shifts at the time, and I didn’t see my own coworkers as much as I saw him.” Old Wu had been saved by Chen Ge once before, and had a very good impression of Chen Ge: “Team Yan and Team Li also think very highly of him, and often joked that it would really be a great loss to the police world if this kid went to open a haunted house.”
With Old Wu there, the atmosphere in the car wasn’t too awkward, and after getting on the highway, Chen Ge fell asleep straight away.
After four o’clock in the afternoon, Old Wu first sent Mr. Wang to the arranged accommodation, and then drove Chen Ge to find Jiang Ming’s mother and son.
Xinhai was much larger than Hanjiang, and it took a long time to go around before Old Wu found the place.
He parked the car outside a slightly dilapidated apartment building, while Chen Ge directly carried two large bags into the apartment building.
”202, right? I’ll be right there!”
Hanging up the phone, Chen Ge ran up the stairs and knocked on the door of 202.
The person who opened the door was a big sister, who Chen Ge had met at Jiang Ming’s house back then, and was very warm and brash.
”Chen Ge, big sister knows that you’re not a bad person, but the doctor you recommended suddenly disappeared, we’re panicking here!”
”You guys should change the doctor to operate on Jiang Ming first, the matter of Dr. Fang’s disappearance is not something that can be explained in a few words.” Chen Ge thought for a while and then said, “Have you called the police?”
”No, Dr. Fang didn’t confiscate our money either, we have no reason to call the police.” The big sister accompanied Jiang Ming’s mother and son, and was really nice.
”Leave this to me.” Chen Ge helped Jiang Ming contact another doctor, and after calming them down, he took Old Wu and hoofed it to the hospital where Dr. Fang was.
”Chen Ge, are you sure Dr. Fang was killed? It’s not convenient for you to carry two big bags, why don’t we find a place to stay first?” Old Wu looked at Chen Ge’s sweaty head and knew that Chen Ge was really anxious.
”Dr. Fang touched something in that hospital, if we don’t hurry to find him, I’m afraid we’ll never find him again.” Chen Ge knew that Dr. Fang was an excellent doctor, and because Dr. Fang was particularly good in certain areas, he was worried that the cursed hospital had poisoned the other doctor.
