Translator: Lonelytree  Editor: Millman97

In the game, Xiao Bu found the key to the dungeon inside her mother’s pajamas. However, the entrance to the dungeon was not at her own home but that of her classmate, Jiang Xiaohu. The thing that worried Chen Ge was that Xiao Bu seemed to have opened that door at the dungeon inside Jiang Xiaohu’s home.

Only when one had lost all hope could one open the door. Then what had Xiao Bu seen and experienced in the dungeon?

“Inspector Lee, do you have any information on Jiang Long’s family?” Only Jiang Long’s family would have information about the things that happened inside the dungeon, and Chen Ge wanted to know that.

“Why are you asking that?” From Lee Zheng’s perspective, Jiang Long’s family had nothing to do with the case.

“I feel like Bu Yi’s murderers could be Jiang Long and his family. Do you still remember the painting on the ceiling of Room 104? Jiang Long’s family’s names were written on it.” Chen Ge dropped some hints for Lee Zheng. If he could get police cooperation, his life would be easier.

“The killers wouldn’t be so dumb as to carve down their names at the crime scene.” Lee Zheng had been a police officer for at least a decade, and he had not seen something like that. “Leaving their own names at the crime scene to purposely announce to the world that they’re the culprits?”

“That painting could have been carved by someone else, or it might have some ritualistic significance.” Chen Ge knew that as a police officer, Lee Zheng could not reveal certain information to the public, but he tried the best he could.

On the phone, Lee Zheng was silent for ten seconds before continuing. “Actually, we’ve already investigated Lee Zheng’s family. His family situation is a bit complicated.”

Chen Ge’s heart had a bad omen. “Don’t tell me his whole family has disappeared…”

“Before Jiang Long’s car accident, Jiang Long’s wife took their two kids to visit a therapist. Then, within one week, Jiang Long died in the car accident, and Jiang Long’s wife, Zhang Chuyu, and their eldest daughter, Jiang Bai, disappeared. Of the family of four, only Jiang Xiaohu remains.” Lee Zheng hesitated like he was not sure whether it was wise to reveal this information or not.

“Jiang Xiaohu is still alive? Where is he staying now? I wish to ask him a few questions in person.” Chen Ge had a feeling this boy could be the key.

“The child has gone insane. He stabbed his therapist, and sometimes, he acts like a deranged beast. There is no way he can communicate with anyone. If you have to see him, then go to Jiujiang’s Mental Asylum. We met him there this morning.” The police had investigated everything that Chen Ge could think of, but they had failed to get any useful information from Jiang Xiaohu.

Hearing what Lee Zheng said, Chen Ge immediately thought, Could the boy be pretending to be mad?

He would not underestimate any adversary even if he was a child.

“Inspector Lee, can you get me to meet the boy?” Chen Ge pleaded for many times before Lee Zheng relented.

After he hung up, Lee Zheng called back immediately. “I’ve notified the asylum. We’d better go early; they do not allow visitation after 9.”

“Thank you, Inspector Lee!”
