The rain from the night sky crawled into his collar, and Chen Ge felt a chill run down his spine.
He stood alone at the edge of the forest, staring at the message on the screen.
In the Trial Mission tab, there was a new option — Coffin Village!
A three-star Trial Mission is already very difficult for me, and the Third Sick Hall is also a three-star scenario. Without Zhang Ya, with just me and the other ghosts, I'd be dead for sure.
The increase in the difficulty to three-star meant that there might be more than one Red Specter in the scenario.
With the information that Chen Ge had, the only one who could threaten a Red Specter was another Red Specter.
The Trial Mission given by the black phone is not just a simple mission. I have to consider the variables and other factors in real life, so I can't be reckless.
Chen Ge hesitated and started to think. After all, I have a week to think. Perhaps in a few days, Zhang Ya will wake up, and then I'll have the confidence to face the danger head-on.
He looked at his shadow and shoved the black phone into his pocket. I'll think about it on the fifth night. I, Chen Ge, am not a reckless person.
The three-star Trial Mission at Coffin Village was a new option for him, but it was only one option.
After the incident with Zhu Xinrou's sister, Chen Ge felt like the danger of this three-star mission would not be lower than the Third Sick Hall.
The key was that the village at the foot of the mountain was called Lin Guan Village, but the mission given by the black phone was called Coffin Village.
Based on Chen Ge's understanding of the black phone, the real location of this mission was probably the original location of Coffin Village deep inside the mountain!
Unlocking this kind of scenario would definitely be thrilling, and it was a very rare Haunted House with an abandoned village theme. Once it was unlocked, it would definitely attract the attention of experienced Haunted House enthusiasts.
To be honest, Chen Ge was tempted.
However, from another perspective, Coffin Village was deep inside the mountain. It was uninhabited, and there was not even a phone signal.
In that kind of situation, if he ran into something scary, he would not be able to escape.
"The people in Coffin Village look strange, and every family has a living coffin. How come it feels like there are many monsters hiding in this village?"
"The people who escaped to the Bai Family Village are perfectly healthy, but their attitude toward the deformed people is hard to understand. They want to kill all of them."
"Why did these people escape from the depths of the mountain? Was it really because of the plague in Coffin Village? "
Chen Ge did not understand, but there was one thing he was sure of. Before he went to Coffin Village, he had to build a good relationship with Jiang Ling. The girl was not as innocent as she appeared.
Yin Xiaoxiao and Fan Yu both like me. I feel like I'm good with kids, so it shouldn't be a problem for me to gain Jiang Ling's trust.
The branches and leaves of the peach trees rubbed against each other, making a terrifying sound.
The old man used the hoe to dig the hole under the peach tree. His movements were very gentle, and there was a trace of guilt on his face.
Chen Ge wanted to help, but the old man rejected him. He took off his jacket and placed it on the branch like he was trying to prevent the body from getting wet.
Seeing the old man slowly clear away the soil, the woman's body started to tilt. When Chen Ge saw the deformed hands under the woman's arms, he did not feel good.
She was born like this, so why did the people around her put the blame on her?
He could imagine Zhu Xinrou's situation when she was young. No matter how hot the weather was, she had to wrap herself in thick clothes. If someone accidentally discovered her deformity, she would be scolded by the people, and she would have to apologize.
"She must have loved winter when she was young." After seeing Zhu Xinrou's body, the shock was indescribable. Compared to normal people's disgust and distaste, Chen Ge showed sympathy.
He had seen many monsters and many people who were treated as monsters, so he could see things from an objective perspective.
"You were born as a human, so it's not your fault."
Chen Ge stood in the gap, blocking the raindrops that fell into the hole. The black phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated again.
He took out the phone to look at it, and the black phone said that Zhu Xinrou's affection level toward him had increased from unfamiliar to slightly favorable.
When I first met Xiaoxiao, I already had a slightly favorable impression of her. Looks like she won't try to ambush me again.
It was difficult to leave Lin Guan Village at night. There were no taxis, and the cement roads had only recently been repaired.
However, Chen Ge had everything planned out.
…
At 3: 15 am, the police rushed into the mountain after receiving the call.
As the first person to discover the body, Chen Ge requested to follow the police back to the station for investigation.
At 5: 30 am, he and Master Bai were already at Inspector Lee's office.
Compared to the more reserved and honest Master Bai, Chen Ge was much more relaxed. On the way back, he even took a nap in the police car.
"Master Bai, just tell me the truth, don't be nervous. Jiujiang's police officers are responsible, fair, and concerned about the people. They won't purposely make things difficult for you. "
The door opened, and when Inspector Lee walked in, he saw Chen Ge imparting his experience to the old man, and he was amused.
"This kid knows the police rules better than I do. No matter how I look at it, he looks like our informant."
"Uncle San Bao!" When Chen Ge saw Inspector Lee, he stood up immediately. "Thank you for the trouble tonight. Speaking of which, it's hard on the police."
Master Bai nodded. He was more honest. He had called the police in the middle of the night, but the police had rushed to the mountain at the first notice. They were indeed very responsible. "Thank you, officer."
"It's our duty." Inspector Lee told the old man kindly and then walked toward Chen Ge. "Jiujiang is so big. Can you stop loitering around my area? Why don't you go sightseeing for a few days? Give yourself a break and give us some time to relax. "
"Inspector Lee, you're treating me like an outsider. Don't worry, my body can handle it."
Inspector Lee looked at Chen Ge, and for some reason, he wanted to beat him up. However, with an outsider around, he resisted the urge.
Rubbing his temples, Inspector Lee did not want to see Chen Ge anymore. After organizing the statement, he had Da Yong lead Chen Ge away.
Da Yong, who had dark circles under his eyes, personally walked Chen Ge to the door. He grabbed his shoulder tightly. "Brother, Inspector Lee is too blunt. Please don't mind him. If you really don't want to go sightseeing, you can stay at home and rest for a few days."
Da Yong's voice was sincere, and it was clear that he was doing this for Chen Ge's own good.
Feeling the warmth from the police station, Chen Ge nodded and replied sincerely, "Okay, I'll try my best."
Getting into the taxi, Chen Ge returned to New Century Park. The sun had just risen.
Facing the rising sun, Chen Ge stopped at the entrance to the Haunted House. He looked at the sun and suddenly took out the black phone.
"I've already proven that the effect of the lucky draw at noon isn't that good. Everyone says a good day lies in the morning. Now is the time when everything is recovering. If I start the lucky draw now, I might get something different!"
