Chen Ge would not answer the birdman's question. When the black hair curled around the birdman's neck, his fate was sealed.
When Zhang Ya made her move, she had never left anyone alive.
At the Third Sick Hall, to chase after the thin shadow, she had rushed into the world behind the door and torn apart the Red Specter's director.
Zhang Ya, who had turned into a baleful specter, was the complete opposite of her personality when she was alive. Thankfully, she seemed to have feelings for Chen Ge.
Chen Ge, who stood obediently at the door, pretended like he did not see anything. He picked up the strange tool that the birdman had tossed away and started to study it.
"Ah!"
A scream came from inside the room. The blood vessels that covered the birdman's face spread outward, morphing into a red bird that tried to fly out.
It was very fast, and it reached the door in the blink of an eye. However, after it flew out, something even more despairing happened.
When the birdman was talking, the black hair started to spread outward, and it had already sealed off this part of the corridor.
The black hair swallowed the birdman and the blood bird. Moments later, the blood bird disappeared, and only a man was left lying on the ground.
His eyes were dull, and his consciousness seemed to have been destroyed.
After consuming the blood bird, Zhang Ya was still not satisfied. The black hair crawled into the rooms through the gaps.
Finally, she found something, and without warning, she started to gather her black hair.
"Did you find something again?" This was the base of the Society of Strange Tales, so there might be some important items hidden here.
After the black hair returned, Zhang Ya tilted her head to study Chen Ge for a long time. Then, without saying anything, she crawled back into his shadow.
Chen Ge's hair stood on end from Zhang Ya's stare. He waited until the blood in his shadow disappeared before he dared to take a deep breath.
"The affection level is rising too fast. Now Zhang Ya is unwilling to go back. If this continues, I will be accidentally killed by her sooner or later." Thinking back to Zhang Ya's gaze, Chen Ge's scalp went numb. The woman seemed to be seriously considering whether to make a move or not.
"I didn't realize that I was so popular with girls before! I haven't done anything yet, but my good impression of her is growing at an insane rate. If I encounter any problems in the future, it's best not to trouble Zhang Ya. "
Chen Ge walked to the birdman's side and looked at his face. After being possessed by the monster behind the door for so long, the man's face had completely deformed.
"I can't find any information based on his appearance."
After leaving the room, Chen Ge came to the end of the corridor and pushed open the last door.
The dining table was placed in the middle of the living room, but there was no one in the room.
"How did they leave? Where is the other passage? "
Holding the butcher knife, Chen Ge walked around the dining table. It was a very ordinary dining table, but each chair had a corresponding number, from one to ten.
"The chairperson is among the ten of them. To be able to borrow the power of the ghost behind the door to create such an association, this person cannot be underestimated."
Chen Ge stopped next to the chair for No. 10. When he entered the room, No. 10 had said something to him. At the time, Chen Ge had been focused on calling Zhang Ya, so he had not noticed.
Now that he thought about it, there was something wrong with No. 10.
"The first thing he told me was that he liked my mask. Did he purposely point out the mask to tell me something?" Chen Ge was wearing Doctor Skull-cracker's mask. Only those who had visited the Haunted House would have seen it before. "Could No. 10 be a former visitor?"
"When the other nine gave up on me, No. 10 did not say anything. In that situation, not saying anything meant that he supported me. He wouldn't risk offending the other nine to save a stranger."
There were many other strange things. For example, when the food was being served, No. 10 suddenly told the three newcomers that they could leave. Combined with everything that had happened earlier, he probably said that specifically for Chen Ge.
"Is there something wrong with the meal given to the newcomers?"
Chen Ge looked at No. 10's chair, and he recalled No. 10's every movement. "The other people's hands were hidden inside the black robe, but No. 10's hands were placed under the table."
Squatting down, Chen Ge looked under the table.
Right in front of seat number 10, there were a few crooked words carved out with fingernails.
Chen Ge used the flashlight on his phone to study it for a long time before he recognized the words.
"Linjiang New Schistosomiasis Control Station?"
The name sounded familiar. He thought about it, and his eyes widened.
There were four letters inside the Third Sick Hall's director's cupboard, and one of them had the address of Linjiang New Schistosomiasis Control Station!
"The letter was written by the Third Sick Hall's director to Doctor Chen, so this No. 10 is Doctor Chen?"
All the clues seemed to be connected together, but it felt like they couldn't corroborate each other. It felt like the most crucial point was missing.
"This is the first time I've taken the mask out of New Century Park. He has seen my mask before, so he should be a visitor or park worker. Who could have appeared in the Society of Strange Tales between the time I obtained the mask and now? "
The body was covered by the black robe, and No. 10's voice sounded weird. He was probably using a fake voice, which made it difficult for Chen Ge to identify the man. He could only confirm that it was a man.
"Could it be the patient from the Third Sick Hall who has recognized me? Is he trying to trick me? "
The people from the Society of Strange Tales were not normal, and they included Wu Fei and the 'devil', the two most troublesome opponents.
"Captain Yan showed me the picture. The patient from the Third Sick Hall has been following me.
"They also saw the picture of me entering New Century Park on the phone of Xu Tong and the patient with Phantom Limb Syndrome.
"This group of madmen knows I'm at New Century Park, so they've probably disguised themselves as visitors to enter my Haunted House, so it's normal for them to have seen my mask.
"The letter with the address of Linjiang New Schistosomiasis Control Station was written by the old director. To survive, the Red Specter Director has joined forces with the patient, so it makes sense that the patient would know the address.
"The reason why he has been helping me is probably because he has sensed danger. He's not helping me, he's helping the entire association! "
"There's another key point. The birdman said earlier that one of the members received the chairman's message and decided to leave.
"I just left, and they left through a tunnel that I don't know about. This can't be a coincidence!"
With that thought in mind, Chen Ge's eyes darkened. He looked at the carvings under the table, suspecting that this was a trap.
He had to be careful. The people who escaped from the Third Sick Hall were all madmen, and he could not use a normal person's logic to predict their actions.
"He noticed something was wrong the moment he arrived and reacted immediately to control the situation. If this No. 10 is not someone I know, then he's probably the chairman of the Society of Strange Tales."
