My House of Horrors - Chapter 281

Chapter 281: 281






Chen Ge rushed forward when the investigator leaned back . The distance of three meters was like a gap that could not be crossed .

He did not make it .

The night breeze rushed through his ears, tearing his eardrums . The investigator's face twisted as his body fell through the air . Those were his last three seconds in this world . The distance between them increased . The investigator seemed to say something, but due to the distance and the howling wind, Chen Ge could not hear anything . Through the shape of the man's lips, Chen Ge roughly made out two words—Men Nan .

Chen Ge could not understand why the investigator would bring up Men Nan at the last moment of his life . Perhaps he was trying to confuse him, or he wanted to leave him a message .

"Yao Qinyi!" Lee Zheng's deep roars came from the safety door . A few officers rushed to the edge .

The body landed with a thud . This was the first time Chen Ge had heard a life being lost .

Yao Qinyi landed on his head . Before he died, he kept his face looking at the roof . His eyes were smiling, and a wicked grin hung on his lips .

Half of Chen Ge's body was hanging off the building, and his arms grasped at nothing but air .

"Ghost stories society…" The society made up from mental patients and killers had revealed its true face before Chen Ge . They had never been concerned about human lives .





"Chen Ge, what's going on!" Lee Zheng demanded with red-rimmed eyes .

Chen Ge slowly retracted his arms and asked with a suppressed voice, "Who called you here?"

"It was the nurse who made the call . A patient saw Ol' Yao escape from his room in the middle of the night . It looked like he was sleep-walking . Considering Xiao Jia's condition, we were afraid some accident might happen to Ol' Yao, so we rushed over from Fang Hwa Apartments immediately . "

"It was the nurse who called the police?" Chen Ge gripped the railing with both of his hands . He looked down at Yao Qinyi, at the smile on his face .

What he said before he died, was that the truth or a lie? Who is the real person behind these scapegoats? Wu Fei? Chairperson? No . 10?

There were three members left in the society, but if he did not remove the chairperson, the society would add more members soon . Tragedy and despair happened daily .

When pain pooled in one's heart and was slowly allowed to influence the soul, the flyer from the ghost stories society would arrive .

I'll need to destroy the ghost stories society before next Wednesday . Zhang Ya had gone into her slumber, so dealing with three members alone would be difficult . I need a new Red Specter!

The police cars had surrounded the People's Hospital . Since Lee Zheng and many other officers were there when Yao Qinyi jumped off the building, they did not make things difficult for Chen Ge . He was sent back to New Century Park at around 4 am .

Chen Ge locked himself up inside the staff breakroom and placed the black phone on the table . He still needed to work tomorrow morning, but he did not feel tired . He sat on the chair to go through the mission message on the phone .





Daily Missions can get me rewards, but only the Nightmare Mission will improve my ability . Ever since the rules of triggering Nightmare Mission have been changed, I've never stumbled across another Nightmare Mission . Normal Missions are to focus on improving the Haunted House . I can do those when I'm free .

There are two Trial Missions inside the black phone . The Hearse, a two-star scenario, and School of the Afterlife, a four-star scenario . Unlocking new scenarios and completing their hidden mission will give me rewards that might include new ghost employees . Trial Mission will improve the power of the Haunted House, but a low-star Trial Mission won't have much influence on me, and a high-star Trial Mission will be too dangerous .

Chen Ge was conflicted . After Zhang Ya went into slumber, he suddenly realized that he could be fearless before this only because of this Red Specter who seemed particularly interested in him .

The visitor's screams from the past two days of work should be enough to exchange for two spins at the wheel . The Wheel of Misfortune is a method to increase my power, but there is too much uncertainty .

Chen Ge thought back to his previous lucky draws, and he shook his head . He decided to delay the activity to tomorrow afternoon when the sun was shining .

The situation is urgent . If the ghost from the wheel isn't compliant, I'll have to feed them to Xu Yin .

Xu Yin had the ability to become a Red Specter, and only a Red Specter would be a threat for the ghost stories society .

The society has owned their door for many years already, so they must have more than two Red Specters . The only reason they haven't made a move is probably because they don't know my bottom line . If they knew Zhang Ya is currently asleep and cannot wake up to help me, they would make use of this chance to deal with me .

He turned to look at his shadow . The long-hair woman's shadow was still a shock to him then!





Zhang Ya has probably considered that already . Chen Ge took out the wooden box from his chest . He toyed with the doll and examined it closely . Why would Zhang Ya give this to me? Can this thing save me when the situation is dangerous?

Taking a doll made from a man's soul everywhere was not a good experience .

Keeping it inside the wooden box was awkward to carry to places, so Chen Ge found a black plastic bag and tossed the doll inside .

He turned off the phone, lay on the bed, and slowly drifted off to sleep .

…

Chen Ge was woken up by his alarm at 8:30 am . He only had caught three or four hours of sleep for the past few days, but he did not feel tired . The only difference he could tell was that his body temperature seemed to drop lower than normal, but it did not seem to affect him .

The park opened to welcome a new day at 8:55 am .

Xiao Gu was still at the hospital, but Captain Yan said that he was mostly fine and had survived the fatal period . He would probably be released from the hospital in a few days .

Ol' Wong though had the shorter end of the stick . Due to his old age and the great trauma, he fell ill, and the high fever would not recede . During his period of consciousness, he told the police that he planned to quit his security job . The police did ask him about what happened that night, but Ol' Wong could not remember anything .

The visitors rushed into the park, and the number was greater than yesterday .

Xiao Gu's absence meant that Chen Ge had to take turns dealing with two scenarios . He only got to rest during lunch .

The Haunted House's reputation grew bigger . Even though Chen Ge's workload had increased, he felt satisfied . At 12:30 pm, Chen Ge sat on the steps leading to the Haunted House to count his morning income . He was only halfway through when his phone rang .

He glanced at it and realized it was an unregistered number . He wanted to ignore the call as he was too busy to deal with it, but in the end, he still picked it up .

A woman's voice came through . "I'm sorry, are you Chen Ge?"

"Yes, I am . "

"Good afternoon, I'm calling from Jiujiang's Children Home . In the space for Fan Yu's guardian, your name has been listed . Now that his aunt is currently in jail, we need you to come over to the Children Home to deal with some things . "

"Is it related to Fan Yu?" The boy who drew about ghosts had left a deep impression on Chen Ge .

"Yes, he has found an older sister for himself at our Children Home . "

"That's a good thing; the boy doesn't like to communicate with people . I'm glad that there have been positive changes…"

"But what if that sister is not a human but a spider?"

"A spider?"
