The black raincoat covered the man's body. He was wearing thick layers and looked rather bloated. When he sensed the bus heading toward him, he immediately turned and ran down the other road.
"Why is it chasing me?" There was panic in the man's eyes. The bus on Route 104 had already left its route, and this had never happened before.
The old bus slowly moved through the rain. Its speed was neither fast nor slow, and it moved next to the man in the raincoat like it was waiting for him to get on.
Such a strange thing had happened. The man in the raincoat picked up his pace and turned his head left and right like he was looking for an alley that the bus could not enter.
"It's so dangerous to walk alone in such heavy rain." Chen Ge had Tang Jun stop the bus before the man in the raincoat and opened the door.
The man in the raincoat paused outside the bus for a while before getting on.
He removed the raincoat to reveal a face that Chen Ge was very familiar with.
Chen Ge had seen this passenger before. When he went to Eastern Jiujiang's Li Wan City, it was this man who had introduced Chen Ge to the bus on Route 104.
He was a burn doctor, and he had married a patient who was much younger than him. Due to various reasons, his wife had committed suicide in the bathroom.
Ever since then, he had been wearing the scarf that his wife had knitted for him and searching for a way to see his wife again in the shadows of this city.
The doctor saw Chen Ge after he got on the bus. In this kind of eerie environment, a familiar person would bring him a sense of security. Without hesitation, he walked to Chen Ge's side and sat down on the second last row.
The bus started again, and the rain slammed against the window. The sound was disturbing.
"You're still alive?"
Chen Ge's greeting was unique, so the doctor did not get angry. He shushed Chen Ge and said in a whisper, "This bus is different from usual today. Something might have happened."
"What's different?" Chen Ge listened carefully and thought about how to improve it in the future.
"I can't tell. In any case, it's very strange." The doctor placed the raincoat to the side and studied the other passengers in the bus out of the corner of his eyes, but he ignored Chen Ge.
"No wonder you ran away as soon as you saw the car enter the station." Chen Ge did not seem to care. He shoved the white cat back into the travel bag. Whenever he was in danger, the white cat would become obedient and clingy.
After the doctor got on the bus, the bus turned around and returned to its normal route.
"There are still a few more stops before we reach Li Wan City. There sure are a lot of visitors who want to take the bus at night." Chen Ge closed his eyes to rest. Be it the drunkard or the red high heels, he did not care about them. His main target that night was the woman in the red raincoat.
Driving through the curtain of rain, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled outside the window, and the wind blew violently. However, the atmosphere inside the car was oppressive, and even breathing became difficult.
After five or six minutes, the bus arrived at the next stop.
On the empty platform, there was a pool of blood being washed away by the rain.
No one knew what had happened at the bus stop before the bus arrived. The bloodstains slowly faded in the rain.
"When the woman in the red raincoat was agitated, there would be blood dripping down her raincoat. Was this left behind by her?" Chen Ge could not be sure. Perhaps it was the murder of a passenger waiting for the bus.
The door opened. Based on usual practice, even if no one got on the bus, Tang Jun would stay there for three minutes.
Nothing happened in the first minute, but on the second minute, a shadow appeared on the road.
He walked in the rain, and his hair was neatly combed like a mushroom.
His neck was slightly longer than a normal person, and his facial features were similar to a normal person's, but when put together, it felt very awkward.
When the door was about to close, the mushroom head got on the bus. He was soaked, and he had a smile on his face.
The corner of his lips cracked open to reveal his front teeth. The rain fell into his mouth, but he did not seem to mind it. This was the only expression he knew.
"A strange man who keeps smiling?" That was Chen Ge's evaluation of this new passenger. He silently used his Yin Yang Vision, and with just a glance, his pupils felt like they were being pierced by needles, and pain shot through them.
He quickly closed his eyes, and when Chen Ge opened them again, the strange man who kept smiling had already moved to the second row of the bus. He seemed to purposely move away from the seat of the red high heels.
"The quality of the passengers tonight is quite high!"
Rubbing his eyes, Chen Ge's head was still hurting. He had no idea what the strange man was hiding, but one thing was for sure — the man was not a normal person like the doctor.
The bus continued to move forward. Several minutes later, the doctor who sat in the second row suddenly reached behind him and passed a phone to Chen Ge.
Accepting the phone subconsciously, Chen Ge saw an unfinished message on it. "Ever since we left Li Wan City, the hearse has disappeared. It did not appear at the promised time. I'm just here to try my luck tonight, but I didn't expect the hearse to appear at the wrong time. The previous pattern has been broken, and there will be many 'passengers' like me who will come to investigate. Tonight will be very dangerous, so take care of yourself. "One more thing, I hope you'll be careful of the smiling monster in the second row. It once killed a whole bus of people."
Looking at the doctor's message, Chen Ge noticed something. When the doctor referred to the smiling passenger, he used the word 'monster' and 'it' to describe him.
"How did the doctor find out about the murder of a whole bus of people? If he's a passenger on the bus, why isn't he dead? If he wasn't on the bus at the time, who did he hear this from? "
His pupils were still hurting, and Chen Ge merely used the power given to him by the black phone to glance at the man.
"This mushroom head, he's quite cute in his outfit, but I didn't expect him to be so cruel."
While Chen Ge was secretly observing the smiling man, the bus arrived at the next stop.
Before they entered the station, Chen Ge saw a young man pacing on the platform. He seemed to be very anxious.
The bus stopped, and the door opened. Sitting inside the bus, Chen Ge could hear the young man's voice.
"It's really here, the midnight bus! The legend is real, it's real! "
His voice was shaking, and his face was pale. His lips were an abnormal purplish color, and his body was shaking like he could collapse at any moment.
"So cowardly?" Chen Ge studied the young man through the window. The man looked like he was in his early twenties, probably still in university.
He was just a normal student. Chen Ge believed that he was like Xiao Gu, haunted by something unclean and unlucky, and that was why he had run into the bus on Route 104.
Chen Ge had no interest in him. He looked at the young man like a fisherman who found out a small fry had crawled into his net and was ready to let it go.
The bus stopped at the platform, and no one forced it to. However, out of Chen Ge's expectation, this young man who looked so cowardly and cowardly rushed in when the bus was about to close.
