There was a long nail hidden inside the doll's sleeve. She should be the one who poked out the last eye.
The last eye was not dyed red. The Society of Strange Tales's ritual was halfway through. It could not be considered a success, but it did not look like a complete failure either.
The blood vessels flowed into the Specter's body, making it more real like it could jump out from the door at any moment.
About thirty seconds later, a strange sound came from inside the door. It sounded like a ball bouncing on the ground.
"A human head?"
Chen Ge summoned Xu Yin, and he squatted down at the door with the hammer in his hand.
If not for the fact that he had just repaired the wooden boards, he would have opened the door to fight the thing already.
The sound came closer and closer before it slammed into the door, and the cubicle door shook lightly.
When the monster inside the door touched the door, all nine eyes of the Specter on the door widened. A boy's scream came from inside the door, and then the bouncing ball sped away.
The sound faded away, and the one minute was up. The Specter still did not escape from the door. Since one of its eyes was poked out, it appeared like it was forever trapped inside the blood door.
The blood door returned to normal like nothing had happened.
When the monster inside the door touched the door, it screamed in pain and fear. Looks like the Specter drawn by the Society of Strange Tales is not normal.
The picture of the Specter had disappeared along with the blood vessels, but the earlier scene still lingered in Chen Ge's mind.
The Specter had the eyes of five sinners on its body, and it was carrying various instruments of torture. It looked scary, but how come it looks like a door 'god'?
A normal family would put up a door god to ward off evil, to protect the family's home, and to ensure their safety. This Society of Strange Tales wouldn't draw a Specter on the blood door to suppress evil as well, would it?
When he was at Coffin Village, Wu Fei had said that the door inside Chen Ge's Haunted House had not been entered before, so it was an ownerless door.
At the time, No. 10's reaction had been huge. It was rare to see an ownerless door that no one had entered before.
"Trying to control a 'door' by drawing a strange pattern? That's a little unrealistic. The key to becoming the master of a door should be within the door. "
With that in mind, Chen Ge suspected that the devil pattern on the door was actually a way to protect the door.
The door was the place where the two worlds intersected. If one wanted to enter the door to explore, one had to first ensure the door's safety. That way, one could return in time if there was any danger.
Protecting the door from being touched by outsiders should be one of the functions of the Malevolent Pattern. I'll have to slowly explore the rest.
To ensure that the picture of the Specter would not affect the Haunted House in any way, Chen Ge used Xu Yin and Yan Danian to test it out. Neither of them showed any abnormal reaction.
"I'm still a little worried. I'll come back tomorrow night to test it."
Initially, Chen Ge's attitude toward the door was to avoid it, but after witnessing Zhang Ya's craziness at the Third Sick Hall, his attitude toward the door started to change.
"If there's a chance, I'll go in to take a look." Chen Ge pulled Xu Yin back into the tape and turned back to look at his shadow. "When Zhang Ya wakes up, I'll go take a look at the door."
It was already midnight, but when Chen Ge returned to the staff breakroom, he could not fall asleep.
He was still thinking about the phone spirit. He felt like the phone spirit would be very useful at the Haunted House. It was such a waste to let him be buried with the Society of Strange Tales.
Normally, if one did not do anything wrong, one would not be afraid of ghosts, but when it came to Chen Ge, it was the complete opposite.
"The phone spirit is from the Society of Strange Tales, and technically speaking, I'm also a member of the Society of Strange Tales. Even though they didn't admit it, that's not important."
When the Society of Strange Tales was about to be destroyed, Chen Ge suddenly realized this problem. Controlling more than one door and hiding in the shadows of the city for so many years, the Society of Strange Tales should have accumulated a lot of good stuff.
Taking a step back, even if they did not leave behind anything physical, just the ghosts that they controlled were enough to attract Chen Ge's attention.
"That's a lot of wealth!"
The other members of the Society of Strange Tales, including the chairperson, were about to be captured. As a candidate for the Society of Strange Tales, Chen Ge felt like it was time for him to step forward.
Carrying the backpack, Chen Ge dragged the hammer to the underground Mu Yang High School scenario. He entered the female dormitory and found the Pen Spirit.
"Don't be afraid, with me around, no one will dare bully you in the future."
After comforting the Pen Spirit, Chen Ge picked it up and used the Pen Spirit's power to predict Han Bao 'er's location.
The success rate of the Pen Spirit's prediction was only fifty percent, and the prediction could not go beyond the limits of her power. This made the power rather useless.
However, perhaps due to the stimulation from the outside world, after Chen Ge asked the question, she wrote down a very detailed address on the paper.
"Xi Xia Hu Apartment Block 3, 23rd floor? The culprit of the eye-gouging case lives at Xi Xia Hu Apartment? "
This was very important information. Chen Ge memorized the address on the paper. He took out his phone to call Captain Yan, but after some hesitation, he put the phone away.
Locking the door, Chen Ge left the Haunted House once more.
"If I run into a Red Specter, I'll temporarily retreat and ask for help from the police. If there are only normal ghosts around her, I'll capture her alive and toss all the ghosts on her into the comic to slowly train them."
Chen Ge had the upper hand, and he was hiding in the dark. With the help of the Pen Spirit, and with the help of Xu Yin and Yan Danian, his advantage was very obvious.
He hailed a taxi to Xi Xia Hu Apartment. The police had not lifted the lockdown. To prevent the hammer in his backpack from causing unnecessary misunderstanding, Chen Ge got out of the car early.
"I can hand the culprit over to the police, but I have to take the phone spirit with me."
When Chen Ge returned to the surveillance room, Captain Yan and the rest had already left. Strangely enough, Captain Yan did not specifically ask Chen Ge about his whereabouts. It was unclear whether he was too busy or he was used to it.
After searching for a long time, Chen Ge found Lee Zheng at the scene. He told him the result of the Pen Spirit's prediction and added a long, made-up explanation.
Lee Zheng listened with a frown. Chen Ge's explanation did not make any sense to him. If this was someone else, he would have lost his patience already.
However, before Chen Ge, Lee Zheng did not argue. After all, the man before him was very special. He had a scary and glorious record of reporting crimes. He seemed to be a natural enemy of criminals.
