There were not many blood vessels in the glass; it was only one-fifth of what the white cat had swallowed.
After swallowing the blood vessels, pain surged through him. Scissors hugged his head and collapsed to the ground. Many crying faces appeared in his eyes, and the expressions on his face kept changing. They were very similar to the faces in his eyes.
The pain was unbearable. Scissors scratched his body, and the scariest thing was that under the new scratches, there were very thin blood vessels that looked like swimming fish.
The pain lasted for a whole ten minutes. Scissors' body was soaked in sweat. After enduring the pain, he gritted his teeth and climbed up from the ground.
The wounds on his face kept leaking blood. It flowed down his face and dyed his collar red. It added a unique presence to Scissors.
"I'm still alive!"
With control over his body back, Scissors crawled up from the ground. This meant that the blood vessels were the real antidote.
He gripped his fists tightly and then slowly released them. He walked back to stand before Chen Ge. "Thank you."
"I didn't do anything. Everything is your own choice." Chen Ge then turned to look at the other two passengers. The doctor shook his head and put down the gray glass with an apologetic expression on his face.
The drunkard seemed to be afraid of pain. He hesitated over whether he should drink it or not. In the end, with Scissors' encouragement, the drunkard also drank the blood vessels.
"You keep an eye on him. I'll go and have a chat with the boss." Chen Ge picked up the glass with the gray sediment and walked to the boss. He twisted the lid open. "This is poison, right?"
"This is also the antidote! I'm not lying to you! "The boss still refused to admit his mistake.
Chen Ge was too lazy to argue with him. He pried open the man's mouth and prepared to pour the gray sediment into his mouth.
"Wait a minute! The three of you were poisoned, and there are only two antidotes. I'll tell you the location of the third antidote! "The boss struggled on the ground.
"The third antidote?" Chen Ge was tempted. The blood vessels were beneficial to the white cat. If there was an extra, he could bring it back to the Haunted House to study it.
"I won't lie to you this time!" Cold sweat broke out on the shopkeeper's forehead as he stared at Chen Ge with his beady eyes.
"Okay, I'll trust you again. Where is the third bottle?" Chen Ge pulled the fat boss up and placed him on the chair.
Feeling the pain, the fat boss's expression became slightly twisted. "I actually put the antidote in the fridge in the kitchen. It's on the upper floor."
"Kitchen fridge?" If not for the fact that he had played Xiao Bu before, Chen Ge might have believed the fat boss. He knew very well that there was no antidote in the fridge, but there was a Red Specter.
"If you don't believe me, you can take me there with you." The fat boss's eyes were wandering, and he glanced at the pocket where Chen Ge kept his teeth.
"You really won't shed tears until you see the coffin." Chen Ge pried open the fat boss's mouth and prepared to pour the bottle of poison into him. The fat boss, who had lost both of his arms and only one leg left, struggled desperately on the ground. He still did not know that Chen Ge had seen through him.
"I'm not lying to you! I really did put the blood vessels inside the fridge. If you don't believe me, you can go and take a look! "
"Even at the last moment, you still want to harm me. You sure are an evil man. There is no cure for you." Chen Ge raised the hammer and smashed the fat boss's remaining leg. He found a cloth and stuffed it into the fat boss's mouth.
The banging at the hotel door became louder. There was not much time left for Chen Ge.
"How are your bodies recovering?" Chen Ge looked at Scissors and the drunkard, who looked like they had just been fished out of the water. Both of them were soaked in sweat, and they looked quite pitiful.
"I've never felt so good before. My whole body is filled with energy. It feels like I'm ten years younger." The drunkard climbed up from the ground and swung his fists, creating gusts of wind.
"Since you've recovered, come and help me. Go into the room and find some rope to tie them to the chairs. If you don't have any rope, use the bedsheets to make some rope." After giving the two their tasks, Chen Ge turned to the doctor. "Don't worry, I'll go elsewhere to look. There should be more antidotes inside the hotel."
"Okay." The doctor collapsed weakly on the table. "Aren't you going to the fridge in the kitchen? I'm curious, how did you know the boss was lying? Is it through micro-expressions and psychology? "
"If you're curious about what's inside the fridge, I can bring you there." Chen Ge tied the fat boss and the chef to the chairs and then dragged them to the hotel door. When the angry headless woman barged in, they would be the first people she saw.
Once the woman tried to kill them, Chen Ge would immediately move on to the next step of his plan — release the glutton monster from the fridge. The two Red Specters would exhaust each other, and then he would come out to clean up the mess.
"The antidote is not inside the fridge. We need to hurry and search the other parts of the hotel." Chen Ge found the white cat and waved the empty bottle under the cat's nose. Then he put the empty bottle away and pointed at the hotel corridor. "Remember this smell. Go."
The beautiful eyes looked at Chen Ge with confusion, and the white cat lay where it was without moving.
"Big brother, are you using a cat like a dog?" The drunkard carried the doctor on his back. Seeing Chen Ge's current state, he could not connect this young man before him to the crazy hammer-wielding man earlier.
"I'm trying to explore its potential." Seeing the white cat shrink back under the table, Chen Ge felt a headache coming on. The cat was getting more and more cowardly.
After packing up everything, Chen Ge's group went to the second floor.
There was a sign in the middle of the corridor that said no entry, and there were blood stains on the ground that had not been cleaned.
Following the blood stains, Chen Ge pushed open the door of one of the rooms. The scene inside was rather gory like an intense fight had taken place, and blood stains were everywhere.
"Based on the degree of coagulation, the victim's time of death should be less than three hours ago. In other words, before we entered the hotel, there was a murder here." Chen Ge squatted on the ground. He had gotten used to this kind of scene.
The drunkard nodded in admiration and then nudged the doctor on his back. "Are you sure he works at the theme park? Could he be a spy planted by the police at the theme park? "
Facing the drunkard's question, the doctor could only smile bitterly. Who knew why this young man would know so much about a murder scene?
The group explored the second floor and realized that this place was basically a meat factory. The fat boss and the chef had no humanity. In their eyes, life was just a toy and food.
"Let's go take a look on the first floor."
They searched the whole building, but they still could not find the antidote. The blood inside the bottle appeared to be something extremely precious even in the world behind the door.
"I'm so sorry to drag everyone down, but how about we leave this place first?" The doctor could not move his body, but he was still conscious. "The female ghost is guarding the front door. If we sneak out from the back door, she probably won't notice us."
"The thing has already targeted us. If we want to leave, we have to transfer her hatred to someone else first." Chen Ge led the other three passengers back to the first floor. He looked at the boss who was tied up at the door, and his sharp gaze caused the fat boss and the chef's hearts to palpitate. "It's still not safe enough. I have to get the female ghost to make her move on them. Only then will my next plan be able to proceed smoothly."
Under the two's despairing gaze, Chen Ge went to the kitchen to find a large basin used to wash vegetables. He filled it with half a basin of water and brought it out.
"What are you planning to do?"
A bad feeling rose in the chef and the boss' hearts.
Chen Ge ignored them. He took out the three bottles of grayish-black sediment from his backpack and poured the contents into the basin.
After mixing it well, Chen Ge smashed the table and used the table's legs to prop the basin above the door.
Once the female ghost opened the door, the basin would fall down. This was a common prank, but the target was a Red Specter.
"The grayish-black powder is not something good. After being doused with this stuff, the female ghost will definitely be overwhelmed by anger, and she'll attack the living things around her." Chen Ge turned back to look at the chef and the fat boss. The despair in their eyes was about to spill out. If they could start over, they would not have gone to provoke Chen Ge.
"If there is a devil in this world, he must look like him." The drunkard hid far away from the doctor. He looked at Chen Ge's various traps and silently thanked himself. "Thankfully, I'm on his side now …"
After Chen Ge finished setting up the traps, he waved at Scissors and the rest. "Come with me."
He hugged the white cat and called everyone to come to the second floor. After turning left into the first room, he used the hammer to break the wooden board on the window. "Stay in this room and prepare more ropes. If there's an accident, escape through this window."
"What are you planning to do?" Scissors sensed that there was something wrong with Chen Ge's tone. He could not put his finger on it, but it sounded like worry and excitement.
"Don't worry so much. Temporarily, you won't be able to help. Just stay alive." Chen Ge looked out the window. "The residential area that we went to earlier has been cleared. When I tell you to run, jump out the window and wait for me at that residential area."
"Okay, you be careful."
"Don't worry. By the way, bring my cat with you." Chen Ge placed the white cat in the bedroom. He had just turned around when he felt a weight on his shoulder.
He turned back to look, and the white cat had already jumped onto his shoulder. Its beautiful eyes looked at Chen Ge with confusion as if asking, Do you not want me anymore?
"Follow me if you want, but don't run away when you see a Red Specter." Chen Ge carried the bag back to the first floor and opened the door to the kitchen.
At first glance, it looked like a normal kitchen; there was nothing special about it.
"If it's similar to Xiao Bu's game, there should be a hidden room behind the fridge. The glutton monster's head is inside the fridge, and her large body is inside the hidden room." Walking to the fridge, Chen Ge realized that the fridge did not have a socket. In other words, it was just a decoration.
"The hotel door should be open soon." Chen Ge reached out to hold the fridge and used Yin Yang Vision to stare at the front door.
The headless woman was afraid as well, but anger and provocation had caused her to lose her rationality. She could sense that the person she was looking for was inside this building.
After waiting for another ten minutes, the headless woman's patience was wearing thin. Thin blood vessels appeared on the door, and at the same time, Chen Ge felt the fridge before him shake like something inside was about to awaken.
"Bang!"
When the blood vessels covered the door, the hotel door was finally forced open. The headless woman hugged her head, and her eyes were bloodshot as she walked into the hotel.
She stepped in, and the iron basin on the door tilted downward. Countless blood vessels rose up, trying to fling the iron basin to the side.
The headless woman did not expect someone to be so brave as to play a joke like this on her, but she still reacted at the first moment.
The iron basin was pushed open, and the liquid that was mixed with grayish-black sediment fell onto the blood vessels, and something surprising happened.
The grayish-black sediment seemed to be able to suppress even the Red Specter's blood vessels. They melted the blood vessels, and the head in the headless woman's arms screamed shrilly as she cut the blood vessels that had turned black.
Losing its support, the iron basin on the door fell on the headless woman. It landed upside down on her neck, and it made a ping sound.
"What is that black sediment? Is it related to the black blood inside the wooden box from the Society of Strange Tales? " Chen Ge had gained Doctor Gao's approval and became the new chairperson of the Society of Strange Tales. Alas, to deal with him, the society had used up all their resources. He knew a lot of information, but he had not gained anything substantial.
This trip to Li Wan City was different. The shadow had prepared for many years to help the ghost fetus, so there had to be many 'specialties' behind the door here!
"I was too careless. The hotel is located at the center of Li Wan City, and it has a Top Red Specter like the glutton woman. The things that the boss collected must be very valuable." Chen Ge summed up the lesson in his mind. "When I enter the other buildings, no matter what strange things I see, I'll try to take them with me."
At the front door of the hotel, the female Red Specter stood in the middle of the door with an iron basin on her head. The head in her arms was completely twisted, and the red eyes were drowned in endless anger.
In less than a second, more than ten times the number of blood vessels gushed out from the wound on her neck, and all the living and non-living things around her were pierced through! Half of the hotel was covered in blood vessels!
It was too fast. In the blink of an eye, the boss and the chef had lost all signs of life.
"I can't let her see me here. If I'm trapped in the kitchen, I'm dead!" Chen Ge opened the fridge without hesitation. The back of the fridge was connected to the wall, and a large open mouth entered his sight.
There was no time to take a closer look. Chen Ge took two steps back and tossed all the teeth and the piece of cloth into the female Specter's mouth.
After dealing with all that, Chen Ge rushed out of the kitchen.
The anger of the headless woman at the door had not dissipated. When she saw Chen Ge, she screamed again.
She had broken the rule of Li Wan City and entered the hotel with her body.
It did not feel good to be targeted by a Red Specter. Chen Ge raced around Guest Room 1. He had just left the kitchen when he heard heavy breathing coming from behind him.
He turned to look. Pulsating blood vessels appeared on the wall of the kitchen. Then the wall that was connected to the fridge collapsed, and an incredibly ugly red monster appeared.
