Jiang Xiaohu obviously did not want to get too close to Chen Ge, but his limbs were tied up, so he could only watch as Chen Ge sat down next to him.
"You look so nervous. Is it because there are too many people in this room?" Chen Ge looked at Jiang Xiaohu with concern. "Relax, we're all here to help you."
Then he turned to Doctor Pei. "Do you mind giving me some alone time with him? The boy doesn't seem to be used to being surrounded by so many people. "
Doctor Pei looked troubled. Honestly, he did not think that Jiang Xiaohu's reaction was due to the crowd. "I don't think that's a good idea. Jiang Xiaohu has a criminal record. If you stay here alone, I'm worried …"
"It's fine, you don't have to worry about my safety." Chen Ge put down the backpack, and it was hard to tell what was inside the heavy backpack. "The boy just lacks a chance to communicate. Perhaps there is a soft side hidden inside his heart that no one knows about."
The workers and nurses turned to look at Doctor Pei. When they cooperated with the police to investigate Jiang Xiaohu, the police had not made such a request.
Doctor Pei wanted to reject him, but considering that Chen Ge was recommended by Lee Zheng, and the case that they were responsible for involved several lives, Doctor Pei decided to reject him.
After giving it some thought, Doctor Pei nodded. "We'll wait outside the door. If the boy suddenly acts up and tries to attack you, you only need to scream for help, and we'll rush in."
"Okay, thank you."
The workers left the room one after another. Seeing them leave, Jiang Xiaohu became even more afraid. A strange sound came from his throat like an injured beast in danger.
The door closed. After making sure that the doctors could not see what was happening inside the room, Chen Ge took out the recorder from his backpack and pressed the button.
The sound of static echoed in the room. The sound seemed to drill into one's brain and stimulate every nerve.
"Do you feel better after playing some soothing music?"
Chen Ge kept his eyes on Jiang Xiaohu, observing his every move. Ten seconds later, he suddenly said, "You've seen ghosts before, haven't you?"
His pupils shook, and Jiang Xiaohu's eyes widened. He wanted to stay away from Chen Ge even more.
"Such a big reaction, could it be that I guessed correctly? Let me think, did you see her corpse with your own eyes, and she came back to life a few days later? Appear in other places? "
Regardless of whether Jiang Xiaohu was mentally ill or not, based on Chen Ge's question alone, if Doctor Pei were there, he would definitely think that Chen Ge was not normal either.
The rope that was tied to the leg of the bed was pulled taut, and Jiang Xiaohu's reaction became even more intense.
"It doesn't matter if you're really crazy or pretending to be crazy. I hope you understand one thing. You're the only one who survived out of your family of four. It's not because you're lucky, but because she deliberately let you go."
When Chen Ge was playing the game, he had a question in his mind. How did Xiao Bu know that there was a secret room in his classmate's house?
At first, Chen Ge thought it was a message left by her mother. However, her mother didn't do anything glorious, so she probably wouldn't tell this to her young daughter.
There was a detail in the game where Xiao Bu found the key inside her mother's pajamas, but thinking about it, how could a prisoner find the key to the exit in her mother's pocket?
After seeing Jiang Xiaohu, Chen Ge had a speculation. Could it be that the boy had stolen the key and handed it to Xiao Bu's mother?
Jiang Xiaohu probably told Xiao Bu to enter the secret room. After all, they were classmates.
"I will not side with either side; I just want to know the truth." The static in the recorder grew louder, and the lights in the room flickered. The room seemed to darken.
A blood red shadow appeared next to Chen Ge. Jiang Xiaohu was really spooked. He could not control himself anymore, and he screamed at the top of his lungs.
"You can feel his presence? Are you remembering something? " Chen Ge did not summon Xu Yin to scare Jiang Xiaohu. He just wanted Xu Yin to inspect Jiang Xiaohu's body to see if there was anything hidden inside his body.
Jiang Xiaohu's expression was filled with fear. He pointed at Chen Ge and screamed like he was dreaming.
"Is it because he has not communicated with others for so long that he has lost the ability to speak? Or did Xu Yin scare the boy? "
Turning off the recorder, Xu Yin did not see any ghost on the boy; he was just a normal boy.
The sound of electricity disappeared from the room. Chen Ge held Jiang Xiaohu's hands that were gripping the rope tightly. "I'm helping you, and I'm helping her. I know there's a shadow in your heart that you can't get rid of. Tell me, just treat me as a passerby who will never appear again. I promise I will not tell a third person about our conversation. "
Several minutes later, Jiang Xiaohu slowly calmed down. His forehead was covered in cold sweat, and his chest rose and fell as he gasped for air.
Chen Ge had summoned a Red Specter earlier. Even an adult would not have been able to handle it, much less Jiang Xiaohu.
"If you don't tell me, I might come to visit you every day until you tell me the truth." Chen Ge placed the recorder on the bedside table and said seriously.
Jiang Xiaohu finally could not take the pressure anymore, and he asked, "What do you want to know?"
"Let's start with your father. Why would he imprison living people? Why does the Ming Yang Residence that he is responsible for have so many problems? "
"I don't know what happened. I only know that Jiang Long once said that the Ming Yang Residence development project was a scam. Someone forced him to do it. The four buildings were not meant for humans; they were meant for ghost cultivators."
The voice came and went. It took Chen Ge a long time to understand what Jiang Xiaohu meant. "Who would force him to do something like that?"
"A long time ago, Jiang Long said that he felt like something was watching him from behind. He went to see many psychologists, and they all thought it was because he was under too much pressure from work. But then his condition worsened, and he started to blabber nonsense. He said that he saw his own shadow come to life with his own eyes. He even felt like his shadow had a mind of its own and could communicate with him. "
"Then how did your father's condition get under control?"
"I don't know. One morning, after I woke up, Jiang Long suddenly looked more energetic. It was from that day onward that the feeling he gave me was completely different. He gained many strange habits …" Jiang Xiaohu paused and hesitated. "It was from that time onward that I stopped calling him 'father' because I felt like someone else had moved into his body. I suspected that he had been replaced by his own shadow."
"Replaced by his own shadow?" Chen Ge was reminded of the shadow at Eastern Jiujiang's fresh water plant. The monster had been setting up everywhere and manipulating people's hearts. It was more troublesome than he thought.
"Regarding the fact that he imprisons living people, that is his own business. It has nothing to do with my family." Jiang Xiaohu's lips fell open, but in the end, he said, "A few years before Jiang Long's accident, he seemed to have been doing something similar. He purposely brought people to Li Wan City and then tortured them both physically and mentally, causing them to sink into despair. I have no idea why he would do that. Maybe it's his own special hobby? "
Jiang Xiaohu's childhood experience made him mature. After he said that, he sneaked a look at Chen Ge before going silent again.
