After getting Chen Ge's reply, Lee Zheng's tone lightened. He did not understand why, but every time he called Chen Ge, he felt pressured.
"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now. Rest well."
Lee Zheng was about to hang up when Chen Ge said, "Wait a minute, I have another question."
"What is it?"
"Liu Zhe surrendered himself. Did he tell us where he hid his body? Have you found the body? "
"It is similar to our previous speculation. Liu Zhe was one of the school workers. He used his position to have the students move the statue into the storeroom, and then he sneaked over at night to remove the body from the statue and hide it in the underground morgue." Lee Zheng's voice lowered like he was reminded of something unpleasant.
"Then, you've entered the underground morgue?" Chen Ge perked up his ears. The underground morgue was a three-star scenario and the last mission for the four-star scenario, School of the Afterlife. Any information related to the underground morgue was important to him.
"We went in with the school workers this morning and found the body in Morgue No. 5. We did a DNA comparison, and she is Ma Yin's missing sister."
When Lee Zheng said that, the black phone suddenly vibrated. Chen Ge took it out and saw that he had received a message.
He did not open it but continued to ask Lee Zheng, "Brother Zheng, can you tell me the layout of the underground morgue? Do you have a map of the underground morgue at Jiujiang? "
The underground environment was complicated, and a map was too important to him.
Lee Zheng was thirty, so it was normal for Chen Ge to call him Brother Zheng. However, for some reason, when Lee Zheng heard Chen Ge call him that, his hair stood on end, and a bad feeling rose in his heart. "I don't have a map, but I know the general route. The school workers were there, so why are you asking?"
"I'm just curious." Chen Ge rambled on for a long time before Lee Zheng finally revealed the layout of the underground morgue.
"The underground morgue on the western campus is the biggest underground morgue in Jiujiang. It has been in use since Jiujiang Medical University was founded, and it has been around for decades. When we entered, the school staff specifically told us not to run around. There are many intersecting passages inside, and they can be roughly divided into three types according to their functions. "
"One of them is a corridor that is painted white for transporting dead bodies, one is an unpainted corridor for people to walk through, and the last one is painted red. The worker did not tell me what the red corridor was for. He only told me to take a detour and not enter it."
Lee Zheng's words attracted Chen Ge's attention. This was the first time he had heard of a corridor being painted red. "Could it be that the presence of the 'door' has affected the surroundings?"
"What are you talking about?" Lee Zheng didn't hear Chen Ge's words clearly.
"It's okay, you can continue."
"The actual size of the underground morgue, the worker did not know. According to the records, there are six morgues, but after we entered, we only walked a third of the way, and we already saw three small morgues and two middle-sized morgues." Lee Zheng seemed to have something else to deal with, so he sped up. "The large morgue is at the innermost part. According to rumors, it's a morgue filled with formalin. Various specimens are stored inside, and they can be fished out when there's a need for experiments. But those are things from many years ago, and they've been abandoned. Now, they've been replaced with freezers that are used to store dead bodies. "
Lee Zheng gave Chen Ge the general layout of the underground morgue, but it was as good as not telling him anything. The road was too complicated, and there was no point of reference. Chen Ge felt like it was still too dangerous for him to go in alone.
"Brother Zheng, when you went in, did you hear any weird noises? Or did something strange happen? " The underground morgue was similar to the underground parking lot of his Haunted House. There was no sunlight, and ghosts could appear in the day.
"Strange noises?" Lee Zheng thought about it. "There are a few. We have never entered a tunnel that was not painted for a living person to walk through. When we passed a tunnel that was painted white, we heard something that sounded like clapping."
Chen Ge's interest was piqued. "Do you mind telling me more about that?"
"It sounded like someone was standing at the other end of the corridor, clapping, but when we passed it, we didn't see anything. But strangely enough, the corridor that was painted white looked much cleaner than the corridor that was not painted, like people often walked in there."
Chen Ge took out a pen and paper to jot down all the key points that Lee Zheng had said.
"The second strange thing was, when we passed Morgue No. 1, one of my team members saw people walking inside, but the door to Morgue No. 1 was locked, and we should have been the only ones who entered the underground morgue at that time.
"We asked the worker, and he said that it was because they were too nervous. The underground morgue was very depressing, and it could easily trigger negative emotions. The worker even comforted my team member, saying that they would get used to it.
"The third strange thing happened when we entered Morgue No. 5. At the time, everyone was looking for the dead body that Liu Zhe mentioned, but the door to Morgue No. 5 closed on its own. It felt like someone had closed the door from the outside to trap us inside.
"The last thing happened when we were about to leave with the dead body. We walked out of Morgue No. 5 and retraced our steps back. We took the same path, but the time we took was twice as long." The fourth thing troubled Lee Zheng the most. Even now, he could not understand why something like that would happen. "Believe me, it's a very strange feeling. It's like the same road, but it's been stretched."
"That's quite scary." Chen Ge looked at the information on the paper and put it away after making sure it was correct.
"It's not that scary." Lee Zheng seemed to have picked up something from Chen Ge's words, so he changed his tone. "Chen Ge, that place is very dangerous. Don't get any strange ideas."
"What kind of strange ideas?" Chen Ge was speechless. "Am I that kind of person?"
"I'm warning you, don't go there alone. I still have something to do, so I can't talk to you anymore. "Lee Zheng then hung up.
Chen Ge sat alone in the staff breakroom. He realized that he had underestimated the danger of the underground morgue.
Coffin Village and the Third Sick Hall are both three-star scenarios, but the scariest presence in these two scenarios has been weakened due to various reasons, and that's why I was able to sneak in.
When Chen Ge went to the Third Sick Hall, only three of the ten patients were inside the scenario, and Coffin Village was even worse. The scariest ghost had possessed Jiang Ling, and she did not mean Chen Ge any harm.
With my current power, a three-star scenario in its perfect form is still quite dangerous. Chen Ge turned to look at his shadow, and he was conflicted.
