Chen Ge lifted up the hood, which was hiding a ruined face. “Who is your chairperson?”

“It’s not me.” The black robe’s face was filled with a smile. “Have fun guessing. You’ll definitely see him before you die.”

Then, blood vessels crawled out of the man’s lips. The blood seemed to have a life of its own. Veins popped up on the man’s skin; he seemed to be experiencing some kind of extremely painful torture. His lips fell open, and his throat and mouth were filled with blood vessels.

The blood in his body seems to be consuming him. Chen Ge gripped the hammer and wanted to give him a whack but was stopped by the woman beside him. After the blood crawled out from his mouth, it wrapped the man up fully, and only his general shape remained.

“The chairperson is just next to you. He has been watching you and is the most interesting person among all the people you’ve met.” The black robe croaked. Chen Ge and the woman watched as the black robe was slowly consumed from within. He gradually become a pool of blood and seeped into the blood-soaked ground.

“What are those blood vessels?”

“You can understand them as part of a Red Specter.” The woman picked up the black robe and seemed to discover something interesting within. “Take the children and leave. If you stay too long inside the door, you’ll be trapped here forever.”

The woman held the black robe and disappeared amid the blood fog. Chen Ge looked in the direction she had disappeared, and his heart was filled with confusion. “What was inside that black robe? How come I heard traces of joy in her voice?”

Chen Ge found the white cat on the rooftop of the ancestral hall. It still did not understand what had happened. It held the vial in its lips, and its white fur was standing on end. Obviously, it was spooked.

“Come down here, it’s safe now.” The white cat eventually jumped down from the beam. When Chen Ge caught it, he realized that the cat had gotten heavier.

“Why do you have to eat everything?” Chen Ge pried the cat’s mouth open to take a look, but he could not see anything off about it.

“That thing was prepared by the ghost stories society. Is it harmful to a cat if consumed?” This was the first time Chen Ge had come across such a problem. Realizing there was nothing wrong with the white cat, he placed it inside his backpack and led the two children to the bedroom where the woman had once stayed.

“The blood door is her room door, so for her, every time this door is opened, it’s the return of her nightmare.” The blood door was closed. Chen Ge tried pushing it several times, but it would not budge.

“Let me. Jiang Ling has taught me how to open the door.” When Fan Yu pressed against the door, the bangle gifted by the woman started to bleed, and the blood covered his palm. Slowly but surely, the door was being pushed open.

After they left the blood door, Chen Ge took out his black phone to take a look. He had been waiting for the message on his phone. The black robe was most likely Patient 9 from the Third Sick Hall—Wu Fei!

However, the black phone did not update after the man’s death. Whenever one of the patients from Third Sick Hall was killed, the mission completion rate would increase, and after gaining a ninety percent completion rate, he would receive the hidden item for this three-star scenario!

When Xiong Qing was captured and the Devil was killed, the black phone updated, but this time, there was no update after Wu Fei’s death.

What’s wrong? Chen Ge thought back to the events with the black robe and felt like he had overlooked something important.
