My House of Horrors - Chapter 244

Chapter 244






The red number on the display was rather eye-catching . When 24 showed up, the elevator door opened . There were wet blood stains in the corridor and many more scratch marks on the walls . There was the smell of blood in the air like something horrible had just happened . Chen Ge removed the cleaver from his calf and hid it inside his sleeve .

"Let's go in . "

Chen Ge did not turn back to look; based on the chill coming from behind him, he knew Zhang Ya was following . The corridor was silent, and he could hear every sound . When he was a third of the way down the corridor, Chen Ge heard the sound of sawing . He took several more steps forward and confirmed that the sound came out from the room Chen Ge had seen the birdman exit when he first arrived .

There were ten seats around the table . They probably represented the ten initial patients, and the birdman is responsible for the odd jobs . But what exactly is his role in the ghost stories society?

Chen Ge thought about it before shaking his head . There was no need to consider that . He was not there to get to know the society; he was there to ruin it . They're both from three-star scenarios, so Zhang Ya should be able to hold her own against them .

Standing outside the room, Chen Ge peered through the door, and his brows involuntarily creased . The birdman was squatting in the corner with some tools in his hands . There was an old man lying before him, and a mask was lying to the side . Chen Ge had seen that mask before; new member No . 1 had worn it earlier .

"What are you doing?" Chen Ge blocked the door and suddenly spoke . The birdman jumped at the sudden intruder . The man did not turn around and spoke while facing away from Chen Ge . "Everyone has left; why are you still here?"





"Are you guys serving dinner? I just left for a while, and you're already done?" Chen Ge had some regret . No matter the reason, the plan that night had to be changed .

"There was a small problem . One of them received a message from the chairperson, and they had to leave . " The birdman still had not turned around . His upper body seemed frozen . He kept his back to Chen Ge and his face to the old man on the floor .

"A message from the chairperson?" Chen Ge thought that the man was acting funny . He walked into the room . "Can you tell me where they have gone?"

"No idea . " The man paused before adding, "I suggest you stay away . "

"There's only one elevator at the end of the corridor, and I did not leave the elevator . Is there another exit here?" Chen Ge managed to gain many clues from what the man said . Now that everyone had left, this birdman was his sole source of information .

"In the future, people will inform you about that, but now, please leave . " The birdman's actions were stiff, like he purposely did not want to turn his face around . Chen Ge was not there to discuss things with him . After the birdman said so, he not only did not leave but moved deeper into the room .

"Why didn't you follow them and leave then? Do you stay here?" Chen Ge kept his questions coming .

"I'm only responsible for cleaning and cooking . "

"Interesting . " Chen Ge had his suspicions regarding the birdman . He could stay at the 24th floor for as long as he wished, and he had access to everything . Could he be the chairperson? Perhaps the chairperson was not one of the other members .

Chen Ge wanted to prove that, but he knew that even if he asked directly, the birdman would not be honest with him . Therefore, he decided to go for the most direct method . Regardless of whether he was the chairperson or not, as long as he disappeared forever, he would not be the chairperson .

The birdman realized that Chen Ge coming close, and he raised his voice . "Newbie, no matter what you've done outside, now that you're here, you'd better follow the rules of the ghost stories society . "

"The rules? But there's only one rule, right? I only need to tell ghost stories . What are the other rules?" Since Chen Ge realized that this person was suspicious, he was not going to leave so easily .

"You'll have to pay if you see things that you shouldn't . Now that all the members have left, you and I are the only one left on this floor . " The birdman stood up, and at the same time, there was sound of water falling . Chen Ge looked at the bottom of the man's body . His pants were drenched with blood, and the blood was sliding down his pants .

"I don't understand what you're trying to say . All the members have left; that should be bad news for you . " Chen Ge continued to move forward like he did not notice the blood on the birdman's clothes .

"Is that so?" The birdman moved to the side to reveal the old man's body . His face was carved in terror .





"Occasionally, there are newbies who mysteriously disappear, and everyone has gotten used to it . " He seemed to be talking to himself, but he wanted to let Chen Ge hear him as well . Then, the birdman turned around . Compared to the weird tools in his hands and his bloodied clothes, the point of attraction was his face .

He did not need a mask!

The man's mouth protruded out of his face like a beak, and the blood vessels that were unique to the monsters behind the door swam across his cheeks . This man was not a human being!

"I've given you the chance, but you don't want to appreciate it . " The birdman waved the tools in his hands to create a weird sound . "I've been meaning to do this since I first met you . Alas, there were too many people, but you came back on your own . "

Things were different from what Chen Ge thought; he had thought that he was talking to a human .

If I'd known, I wouldn't have wasted so much time .

Chen Ge stared at the man's face . If the monster behind the door wanted to survive outside the door, they needed to attach themselves to a living person . The monster that seemed to grow out of the man's head should be a new monster that he had not seen before .

Their relationship should be similar to Xiong Qing and the thin monster . The monster behind the door grew on them, and the living human controlled them to a certain degree by satisfying the monsters' desire .

All the real members of the ghost stories society will have monsters attached to them . This is rather difficult, especially if they have a Red Specter among them .

Chen Ge stood where he was, thinking about this problem . The birdman thought he was scared witless, and a cruel smile appeared on his face . He liked to see people struggle; it was the little enjoyment in life he allowed himself . It was because of that there were so many bloody scratch marks around the elevator .

He loved to yank people down into the depths of despair when they thought they saw hope .

"The ghost stories society is not a charity . If you wish to have salvation, you need to pay the price!"

The birdman rushed toward Chen Ge with his tools, his beak-like mouth calling shrilly .

Suddenly, his neck was strangled by black hair, lifting him off the ground . His legs kicked about out of desperation, and his face turned purple as the blood vessels dispersed .

"What is this‽"
