"Why is he walking toward me?" Chen Ge was confused by the man's intention. "Don't tell me he's planning to offend everyone on the bus? That doesn't sound right on this hearse. "
Naturally, the new passenger could not hear what Chen Ge was thinking. When his shoes landed, there were two sets of footsteps inside the bus, one in front of the other behind him. It was a very strange sound.
Seeing the man walk to the back of the bus, even Chen Ge could not remain calm. After all, this young man had the curse of the red high heels on him.
He moved to the side. It was not that he was afraid, but he did not want to be dragged into this mess and waste his energy.
The new passenger saw Chen Ge's movement. His eyes scanned between Chen Ge and the doctor before stopping on Chen Ge with an exaggerated smile.
"You're afraid." The confident tone, the cold eyes, and the smile on the new passenger's face made it seem like he had everything under control. Nothing inside the bus could escape his notice.
"Yes, I am," Chen Ge admitted without hesitation.
"The more afraid you are, the more likely something bad will happen." The new passenger seemed to have finally chosen his spot. He held the bag and scissors in one hand and used his other hand to grab Chen Ge's backpack and travel bag.
He did not make a move on Chen Ge but went straight for the backpack. This was the first time that Chen Ge had encountered someone like this. He frowned slightly, wondering if the new passenger had noticed that there was a ghost inside the backpack.
About two seconds later, Chen Ge dismissed his suspicion.
The new passenger reached for the backpack with a strange smile. He gripped the strap of the backpack and tried to lift it up. To everyone's surprise, the backpack did not budge at all. This scary looking new passenger was unable to lift Chen Ge's backpack with one hand.
"Haha." Chuckling coldly, the new passenger tried again. The muscles on his arms tensed. It looked like he was using all his strength before he managed to lift Chen Ge's backpack and toss it to the ground.
"Bang!"
The contents of the bag were very heavy and fell to the ground with a dull thud.
"What's inside?" The new passenger raised his chin and aimed the sharp end of the scissors at Chen Ge's eyes.
"I'm a prop maker at the amusement park. Inside the bag are the tools that I use for my daily work. They are all very common things." Chen Ge raised his hand obediently. He did the same thing when he saw the police at the crime scene to prevent unnecessary conflict.
Skillful movements and sincere tone. This was clearly not the first time Chen Ge had done something like this.
The new passenger was very satisfied with Chen Ge's' cowardice '. He scanned the whole bus and found that the young man in front of him was the easiest to bully.
The new passenger stuck out his tongue and licked the wound strenuously. In the end, he sat beside Chen Ge.
Slowly putting down his hands, Chen Ge turned his head to look to the side. From the tone of the new passenger just now, he thought that the other party was going to make a move. At the very least, he would open his backpack to check. Who knew that the guy was all bark and no bite. He didn't even bother to find a way out for himself and just sat down.
"Er … Are you going to Li Wan City as well?" Chen Ge thought that this new passenger was quite interesting. He started to provoke once he got on the bus. His actions and expression were rather exaggerated like he was afraid that people would not know that he was a crazed murderer.
"If not for Li Wan City, who would take this last bus prepared for the dead at night?" The new passenger studied Chen Ge up close. He felt like of the whole bus, only Chen Ge looked slightly more normal, like a good person.
"The last bus prepared for the dead …" Chen Ge sucked in a cold breath. It was as if he was trying his best to hide the fear in his heart, but he still accidentally revealed his true thoughts. The emotion came from within. His facial expression did not change much, but the corner of his eyes twitched and his pupils twitched.
The new passenger was getting more and more satisfied with Chen Ge. He liked people who were 'weaker' than him. "What is your name?"
"My name is Chen Ge. I work at a theme park. What about you?" Chen Ge shrunk his body to the side. As if realizing that the question might anger the man, he quickly added, "It's fine if you don't want to tell me, I'm just asking."
"You can call me Scissors. I'm going to Li Wan City to look for someone, a dead person."
Chen Ge did not even ask for the rest of the story, but the new passenger had said it on his own.
"I'm also going there to look for someone. A friend of mine went missing, and the last message he left me was about this bus. Initially, I did not believe it until I saw this bus with my own eyes. When I got on the bus, I hesitated for a long time … "Chen Ge's description was very detailed, but the doctor sitting in front of him thought it sounded familiar. He realized that Chen Ge seemed to have adapted the high school student's story and used it on himself.
"Looks like I'm not the only one with similar experiences." The sickly smile on Scissors' face slowly disappeared. He fell into deep thought. When he was subconsciously thinking, the expression on his face returned to normal. This should be how he looked in his daily life.
"We're all the same." Chen Ge lowered his head, pretending to tie his shoelaces. His fingers silently brushed past the fresh blood that accidentally landed on his shoes when the new passenger waved Scissors.
Rubbing his fingers together, Chen Ge sniffed it. His five senses were far sharper than a normal person's, but even so, he could not smell the scent of blood.
"It's not blood." This time, Chen Ge was even more certain. Normally, carrying a large bag of 'dead bodies', unless they had been treated with plastic wrap or activated charcoal, there would definitely be a strange smell.
"This man should be similar to the doctor, a normal person who went to Li Wan City to look for 'sustenance'."
Chen Ge could understand the new passenger's strange behavior. He knew that the bus was dangerous, and he knew that the place he was going to was filled with ghosts and murderers. Therefore, he, like a sheep, put on the skin of a wolf, hoping to blend in with the crowd.
"No matter how a sheep disguises itself, it's still a sheep." Chen Ge looked at the man's clean hands and shook his head slightly. He grumbled internally, "Holding the scissors like this, if there's a conflict, I might injure myself. In an intense fight, I won't have the chance to cut my enemy, so I might as well hold the scissors close to the back and use them like a sharp awl."
This man who called himself Scissors had too many flaws. A normal person might be spooked by his scary appearance and sickly tone, but not Chen Ge. He was a Haunted House operator, and from a professional perspective, Scissors had too many flaws.
Scissors did not pose much of a threat, so Chen Ge turned his attention to the other passengers. They were about to reach Li Wan City, so he could not allow these passengers to do whatever they wanted.
Before he could come up with a plan, something happened. The phone in Chen Ge's pocket suddenly vibrated.
After Chen Ge put on the earpiece to answer it, Fan Dade's voice came from the other end.
"Mr. Chen! I've discovered a problem! The door to the living room is open, and I went out to take a look. There are only upward footprints in the stairwell and no downward footprints. That thing might still be inside the room! Should I leave this building as soon as possible? "
"There are only upward footprints?"
"That's right. I feel that something is different today. Everything I look at feels weird! Mr. Chen, where are you now? I'm really going crazy! "
"Hold on for a little longer, I'll be there soon!"
