Chen Ge stood in the middle of the classroom like he had been petrified.
The old headmaster's appearance had given him a huge impact. Hidden clues had been discovered one after another, and his worldview was slowly being overturned. His way of thinking had started to change.
Mu Yang High School and the Third Sick Hall were among the first few scenarios that I experienced. It has been so long since then, but I didn't expect to run into something related to them in a four-star scenario. No one went to disturb Chen Ge, and everyone stayed close to him to protect him.
Based on the old headmaster's description, I am one hundred percent certain that the mental hospital that he mentioned is the Third Sick Hall. In other words, the only escape route in a four-star scenario is a three-star scenario that I've experienced a long time ago.
Mu Yang High School was the first two-star scenario that Chen Ge had experienced, the Third Sick Hall was the first three-star scenario that Chen Ge had experienced, and the School of the Afterlife was the first four-star scenario that he had experienced. These three scenarios were connected in a very ingenious way to form a closed loop, and this surprised Chen Ge.
He started to suspect that the missions on the black phone were not randomly given; each mission had a deeper meaning behind it.
All the missions on the phone have the word Trial in front of them. Are such dangerous missions just Trial Missions?
A one-star scenario is a human, a two-star scenario is a baleful Specter, a three-star scenario is a Red Specter, and a four-star scenario is a Greater Red Specter. Theoretically speaking, the higher the star, the bigger the gap between the scenarios, but they are all connected to each other. It feels like someone … wants me to experience something through these scenarios, to slowly find something that has been lost. Chen Ge's brows were deeply furrowed. He rarely showed this expression. Why would they do that? What do I need to know? What have I lost in the past?
Lowering his head to look at Yin Hong and Yin Bai, the two girls were afraid of Chen Ge's gaze.
Have I also lost a version of myself? Chen Ge did not know what kind of expression to show. His mind was a mess, and for some reason, he was reminded of his Haunted House and the door inside it.
When he first found out that there was a 'blood door' inside his Haunted House, he had been really spooked.
What made him even more uneasy was that when the door was opened at midnight, he heard someone calling his name from outside the door.
That voice was still fresh in his memory. It was very familiar, but he couldn't tell who it belonged to. It was like his own voice.
"Being called by my own voice?" Recalling this strange experience, Chen Ge felt a chill run down his spine.
"Maybe I really did lose myself."
Chen Ge had many secrets that he couldn't share with others. He could only bear them himself. It wasn't that he wasn't afraid, it was just that he suppressed everything in his heart.
"When Dr. Gao entered the door at my Haunted House, he was almost scared out of his wits and had to retreat. With the power of the Society of Strange Tales at the time, he was scared out of his wits before he could explore the place. This means that behind that 'door' is another four-star scenario."
The door was inside the Haunted House's toilet. In other words, the world behind the door was Chen Ge's Haunted House.
"I wonder what the Haunted House behind the door is like." Chen Ge was curious, but with his current power, he probably wouldn't be able to come out after he entered.
"The person behind the door is calling me. If I go in voluntarily, won't I fall into his trap? Before I get to the bottom of this, I have to control myself. " Chen Ge decided that after he returned to the Haunted House, he would install an anti-theft door for the toilet cubicle and then pour some concrete over it. Using wooden boards to block the cubicle was too insecure.
"The door will only open at midnight. If I can solve this problem, I can open my Haunted House at night, increase the operating hours, and earn more money." Shaking his head, Chen Ge realized that he had been thinking too far ahead.
He put down the backpack and squatted down between Yin Hong and Yin Bai.
Whether or not Yin Hong and Yin Bai were a hint left behind by his family, he had to get to the bottom of it.
"I won't hurt you, but I see my old self in you, so I want to know one thing. When did you become like this? Or should I say, when did Yin Hong appear? " Chen Ge was getting closer to the truth. It was like he was walking through a fog, and any light was a hope that he had to hold on to.
"I don't know." Yin Bai was very cute. She held her hands together. Of all of them, the person closest to her was the old headmaster, but now the old headmaster was protecting another girl, and that girl looked so much like her.
Chen Ge did not make things difficult for Yin Bai and turned to Yin Hong.
Being stared at by him, Yin Hong was initially afraid and nervous, acting similar to Yin Bai, but she slowly realized that this was not going to work. When she could not gain any sympathy, her true nature was exposed.
The red eyes stared at her bag on the ground. Yin Hong lowered her head so that no one could see her expression. "If I tell you the answer, will you return my bag to me?"
Yin Hong's bag did not have many decorations, but it looked very girlish and youthful. Who would have thought it would be filled with notes about curses and murder?
"Okay." Chen Ge agreed.
"It was night when I opened my eyes. It was around 2 am. I heard movement in my bedroom, and when I turned to look, I saw my adoptive father in my room." Yin Hong's tone was frighteningly calm like she was telling someone else's story. "I was scared and screamed. My adoptive father opened the door and ran out."
She paused and slowly said, "I appeared that day. I only appeared after Yin Bai fell asleep. I know everything that she has been through, but she does not remember me.
"I will not blame her because I am the person who knows her the best in the world. I know what kind of hell she has been living in and what kind of fear she has faced.
"I don't know why I appeared. Perhaps Yin Bai was too afraid, too cowardly, but she could not get any help, so she created me." Yin Hong glanced at the innocent Yin Bai. "Of course, there is also the possibility that I am a wandering ghost, and I just happened to possess her body."
A cruel smile appeared on her lips. Yin Hong wanted to touch Yin Bai's face, but Yin Bai dodged her. "In the morning, I am a cute and innocent child, but I don't know what I am at night. I tried to find a meaning for my existence, and I finally found it."
Yin Hong pulled back her long sleeves, and her slender arms had burn marks. "That old dog likes to enter my room at night, so I prepared a thermos next to my bed. That was my first counterattack, but probably because I was too weak, the result was not perfect. However, it did scare him half to death."
The way Yin Hong referred to her adoptive father kept changing. She had completely dropped her disguise.
