The interrogation room door was pushed open at 11 pm. Two officers walked into the room and placed two printed files on the table.

“Wei Wu, real name Zhang Wu, male, 36, works at a pharmaceutical company. He has been spotted going out late at night for the past six months and has been using his fake identity to rent many underground storage rooms. Investigation is still ongoing for his properties.”

“Kong Xiangming, real name Kong Yin. A wanted man on the run. Xing Hai police suspect this man is related to two homicides.”

Looking at the information on the table, Chen Ge sat up straighter. Things were even more successful than he thought. Kong Xiangming was a wanted man. He did not even have to say much to prove his innocence.

“See, I’m not lying to you, am I?” Chen Ge raised both of his hands. “I’m sorry, but what is the reward for capturing a wanted man? Xing Hai is a bigger city than Jiujiang, so the reward money should be higher, right?”

“Reward money is decided by the department of public security; it has nothing to do with locality.” Captain Yan had the man beside him uncuff Chen Ge. He then personally poured a glass of water for Chen Ge. “Tell me, how did you discover these two?”

“I’ve told you. I’m the victim!” Chen Ge pouted. Listening to him, the few policemen in the room felt their scalps numb.

“We believe you, but everything needs to be based on the evidence.” Since no one had any sign of saying anything, Captain Yan stepped forward. “Don’t mind it too much, but if there’s a next time, try to take a lighter hand. If you accidentally take someone’s life, things will be very complicated.”

Captain Yan did not know why he would say that, but he had a feeling this was only the beginning.

“Okay, I’ll try.”

“I’ll personally go ask about the reward money for you tomorrow, so now can you tell us about these two?” Captain Yan was familiar with Chen Ge’s personality, so he threw out the reward money as bait.

“Told you, I’m really the victim.” Chen Ge’s voice turned serious. “You guys still remember how I accidentally came into the group of madmen detaining live hostages at the mental hospital, right?”

“Yes.” Captain Yan seemed to remember something. “The group of madmen had a picture of you entering the New Century Park, so do you mean these two people were sent by them to the Haunted House to disturb business?”

“Disturb my business?” Chen Ge shook his head and sighed. “They were sent to kill me.”

The interrogation room became quiet after he said that. Based on the investigation and their years of experience, the officers believed Chen Ge was right.

“This is part of their revenge against me.”

“Just because you exposed their secret at the abandoned mental hospital? That made them want to kill you?” a young looking officer at the table asked.

“They’re all mental patients; their worldview is different from us.” Chen Ge thought about it, and he prepared to tell Captain Yan the things that he could reveal to prevent the police from having unnecessary sacrifices. “After a short interaction, I realized these people’s hearts have been fully twisted. They use their own twisted views to understand the world, and the scariest thing is they believe they are right and it is this world that is wrong. You cannot apply normal logic to them; they are extremely dangerous.”

“Mental patients going around killing people with a twisted worldview?” Captain Yan tapped lightly on the table. This was something he would subconsciously do when he was in deep thought.
