There were still many questions in Chen Ge's mind, but the boy did not give him the chance to ask and started the countdown.
It was obvious that the boy was barely holding on. His body had not fully recovered, and the red speck on his body was slowly dimming. "Stop wasting time, hurry up!"
When he got closer, Chen Ge realized that the door was covered in small cracks, and there were many blood vessels weaving through the cracks, trying to mend them.
He thought back to the explosion when Zhang Ya arrived, and he thought this was strange. "The old man sent Zhang Ya to the door, and then Zhang Ya broke through the door. This means that the door can be destroyed, but it can also repair itself."
He pushed the door open, and the world outside was no longer red. The dark corridor gave him a sense of familiarity.
"Meow?" A white cat squatted at the door. When it saw Chen Ge, it tilted its head, and its multi-colored eyes were filled with curiosity.
Walking out the door, Chen Ge wanted to turn back to greet the boy, but the boy slammed the door shut with a bang, not giving him the chance to speak.
"Why do I feel like the boy is hiding something? Could it be that he is afraid of Zhang Ya? " The image of the red speck appeared in his mind, and Chen Ge shivered. This three-star mission had given him a new understanding of Zhang Ya.
The Red Speck Zhang Ya's personality was completely different from when she was alive. She was cruel and violent, and she would fight from outside the door to inside the door. She would eat anyone who stood in her way, and if she did not like someone, she would tear them apart.
"Zhang Ya should have come out with me, right?" Chen Ge turned to look, and Zhang Ya was standing one foot away from him. The red speck on her body was brighter than before.
His fingers trembled like they were spasming. Chen Ge smiled awkwardly to hide his panic. "Look at this. I was worried about you, so I went in to find you, but in the end, I was saved by you."
Zhang Ya was silent, and her eyes studied Chen Ge's face.
Chen Ge froze under her stare, and he did not dare move. He was trying to come up with a way to lighten the atmosphere, but after thinking for a long time, he realized that in his twenty plus years of life, he had zero experience in conversing with a girl.
"What have I been doing for the past twenty years?"
After racking his brain, Chen Ge finally said, "We're done here. Let's go home."
Zhang Ya did not answer. She took another step forward, and when her face was about to touch Chen Ge, she suddenly accelerated through Chen Ge's body and crawled into his shadow.
The black phone in his pocket vibrated. Chen Ge leaned against the wall and sat down. His forehead was drenched in cold sweat. The pressure that Zhang Ya gave him was too much.
"My phone is vibrating. Is it a notification that I've completed the mission?" Chen Ge took out his phone and clicked on the notification.
"Zhang Ya's Favorability has increased slightly! I'm about to break through to the next stage — Uncontrollable Emotions! "
The words on the screen made Chen Ge suck in a breath of cold air. "Can't help it? Why does this word sound so dangerous? Will Zhang Ya tear me apart in a fit of excitement? "
Chen Ge hugged his head, troubled. The white cat was lying lazily on the backpack. It seemed to have gotten used to its owner's strange behavior.
"Things will eventually sort themselves out. Let's not think too much about it." Chen Ge stood up. He took out his phone and glanced at it. After entering the door, all communications were blocked.
Only then did he remember that he was still in the middle of a live broadcast. He entered the homepage of the platform and saw that his live broadcast had been temporarily banned. However, his account was not frozen, so he could still operate and post messages.
"What happened?" Looking at the number of followers, he realized that the number of followers had increased by 150,000 in just one night. Most of the larger livestreams were talking about him and Qin Guang.
Chen Ge calmed down. He entered Qin Guang's livestream to take a look and realized that the man had also been banned.
"What happened?" Chen Ge called Liu Dao, and it was picked up after six rings. "Liu Dao? Why are both my and Qin Guang's livestreams banned? Is it because the screen is black for too long? "
After a few seconds, an unfamiliar male voice came from the other end of the phone. "We're from the city's investigation unit. Tell us your location immediately. Stay where you are and don't move."
When did the police arrive? How did they know I'm at the Third Sick Hall?
Chen Ge glanced at the time, and it was already 3: 50 am. He felt like he had only been in the world behind the door for a short while, but so much time had passed.
It was probably when he entered the world behind the door and the livestream stopped, and Liu Dao's group called the police.
Different from the viewers on the internet, Liu Dao knew the severity of the situation and knew the exact location.
"I'm on the first floor of the Third Sick Hall. There are two victims in the second sick hall's laundry room, and I'm looking for more evidence."
"The two victims have been rescued. Please don't ruin the scene. We'll be there in a minute, so please keep in touch."
"My phone is almost out of battery, so I won't be able to talk for long." Chen Ge paused for a while before hanging up. He made use of the time to hide the cleaver and hammer.
"I have to put away the things in the director's dresser as well." He ran to the director's office on the second floor and moved the documents inside the dresser away. When he went to retrieve the letters, Chen Ge accidentally discovered another secret inside the dresser.
The partition behind the dresser could be opened to reveal a hidden corridor. At the end of the corridor was a steel door.
The door's keyhole matched the key that Chen Ge was holding. He opened the door and pushed open the door. Chen Ge realized with a shock that he had returned to Room 3.
This should be the hidden corridor in Room 3 that Wang Haiming mentioned. This corridor is connected to the director's office, and only the director knows about it.
Looking at the bed that faced the entrance of the secret tunnel, Chen Ge was reminded of Men Nan's mother, and he understood the other reason why the boy tortured the old director.
Wang Haiming also stayed in Room 3, so this key should have been stolen from the director by him and the mirror monster. The police would arrive soon. Chen Ge pocketed the key, dealt with everything, and waited quietly at the door.
At 4 am, the door to the Third Sick Hall was broken open. Chen Ge, who had been waiting for a long time, walked over. He was carrying a backpack, a rooster in his hand, and a white cat on his shoulder.
"We're on the same side! I found some things left behind by the suspects. "Before Chen Ge got close, the police surrounded him. They were all unfamiliar faces.
After the interrogation, Chen Ge led the police into the Third Sick Hall. After deleting the things related to ghosts, he told them about how he chased after the twisted face and ended up being locked inside the Third Sick Hall.
"There are fingerprints of the suspects on the steel door on the fourth floor. There are three of them, and they were all patients at the Third Sick Hall."
