Chen Ge had the talent of Mortician's Make-Up and Dollmaker, and he had personally made hundreds of dolls, so he trusted his judgment. This face is eighty percent similar to the face of the child in the picture, but the question is, why would I touch this face on the wall? Could it be that the child on the missing person's notice has already been killed? Is the body related to the wall?
Slowly pulling back his arm, Chen Ge stood where he was. The surroundings were quiet, and there was no sound or smell.
The arguing couple on the second floor lost their child, and the child's name is Da Bao. The missing person's notice outside the stairwell was probably posted by them.
The couple on the second floor are looking for their lost child, but I touched the child's face on the wall. Did the child turn into a ghost and return to this building, or was he killed inside this building? Could the killer be one of the tenants inside this building?
The more Chen Ge thought about it, the more likely it seemed. The husband left the house late at night, and the pregnant wife chased after him without locking the door. Under normal circumstances, the child who was left alone in the house would not sneak out alone unless he saw something or someone familiar was calling him from outside the door.
"Is the killer a neighbor?"
The term "neighbor" was very common, but for Chen Ge, it had a different meaning because the daily mission that he was doing was named "Neighbor."
Chen Ge took a step forward. He felt that it would be safer to lean against the wall, but when his palm was about to touch the wall, he stopped. The earlier scene had left a shadow in his heart, and he was worried that he might touch something strange again.
His fingers slid down one by one, and when they touched the cold and hard surface of the wall, Chen Ge sighed in relief. If it was not necessary, he did not want to touch the 'people' who passed by.
"I'm just here to complete the mission. There's no need for me to investigate what happened here. I only need to close my eyes and walk to the roof. The rest has nothing to do with me." Chen Ge took another step forward, but when his body moved, he suddenly felt something pull on the corner of his shirt.
"Is it that child?" Chen Ge froze on the stairs. His eyes were closed, and he could not see anything. He could only wait for the woman to let go.
After about five seconds, Chen Ge took another step forward. He could clearly feel a force pulling him from behind.
The other party had no intention of letting go, so Chen Ge did not dare to force it. He tried to take a step back, and the pulling force was clearly reduced.
"It seems like something doesn't want me to leave."
A terrifying thought emerged in his mind. Chen Ge slowly crouched down and whispered behind him, "Dabao?"
The pulling force disappeared for a moment, but it quickly returned to normal.
"Is it really you?" Chen Ge tried his best to speak slowly. "Your parents are looking for you. Hurry up and go home."
Perhaps Chen Ge's words had triggered the woman, but he felt the pulling force behind him suddenly increase like it was trying to drag him into the wall.
"Wait a minute, if you don't like your parents and don't want to go home, I can accompany you!" Chen Ge immediately changed his mind.
"Actually, my childhood wasn't that beautiful. My parents always argued over small things. Seeing their scary faces, I could only hide in the corner alone. Other people's families have a lively meal, but my family is always deserted. Occasionally, when the family of three gets together, they will part on bad terms. "
It appeared like no one had said something like that to him before. Chen Ge could feel the pulling force behind him lessening.
"Arguing, smashing things at home, sometimes their anger would be directed at me. The scolding and beating that came out of nowhere forced me to live my life carefully. I don't even dare cry too loudly." Chen Ge sighed softly. "Even though I've grown up, I will not forget the things that happened in the past. The scars were not erased by time, but as time went on, I slowly learned to adapt to the pain."
Chen Ge squatted down on the stairs. He turned around to face the darkness and mumbled to himself, "Isn't it sad? I'm just a child. I can't get the love of an adult, but I have to force myself to be a sensible adult. "
The pulling force slowly weakened. Chen Ge's words seemed to resonate with the woman.
"I've experienced that kind of feeling, and because of that, I've become sensitive. I'm suspicious of everything. I know that it's not a good feeling, so if you don't mind, I can be your friend. I don't want you to experience the sadness that I once felt." The force behind him disappeared completely, but Chen Ge maintained his posture and did not move. An adult's response to a child was like a mirror. A good response would allow the child to see the best of themselves, but a bad response would be like a laughing mirror that would distort the child's perception of the world.
Even though Chen Ge did not have a child, he had interacted with children many times, so he knew how to respond to a person.
Da Bao's family was unfortunate. If it was within his power, Chen Ge was willing to help.
There was no sound around him, and his clothes stopped being pulled. The child seemed to have left.
Chen Ge could not see anything. His hand pressed against the wall, and he did not touch anything strange. "Don't worry, I'll leave. I'm just going to the rooftop. After I'm done, I'll come back."
After saying that into the darkness, Chen Ge slowly stood up. He held the wall and was about to move up when his hand that was close to the railing suddenly felt a chill like someone had shoved a block of ice into his palm.
With his fingertips shaking, Chen Ge's fingers clenched. He was sure that his hand had been grabbed by another hand.
Goosebumps rose on his neck. Chen Ge stood where he was for two seconds before grabbing the small hand tightly. "We can go together, but you have to remember one thing. If there's any danger, you have to run away as fast as you can. Don't worry about me, understand?"
Holding the hand, Chen Ge continued to move up. He smoothly moved from the seventh floor to the eleventh floor, and he did not run into any accidents along the way.
But when he reached the eleventh floor, the elevator in the corridor rang, and the door opened. It appeared like someone had taken the elevator to the eleventh floor in the middle of the night.
He had no idea whether the person was a ghost or a human. To prevent any misunderstanding, Chen Ge stopped moving.
Footsteps echoed down the corridor, and then there was the sound of keys knocking against each other. Then the key was inserted into the lock, the spring moved, and the anti-theft door was opened.
Just as Chen Ge thought that the person was about to enter the room, a giant force came from the corridor. Someone was grabbing his left arm like they were trying to drag him into the room that had just opened!
His body lost balance, and the blindfolded Chen Ge almost fell. At that moment, another force pulled on his right arm, trying to stop him from being dragged away.
