Chapter 991 - Hidden Clue [2 in 1] (1/2)
Chen Ge believed that with how the people at the futuristic theme park viewed him, even if he went there, he would not be able to get any information from them. The workers there evaded him the moment they saw him. In their eyes, Chen Ge was probably as scary as an actual ghost. Chen Ge had a feeling that they had misunderstood him a little bit, but with the time crunch, he did not have time to explain the situation to them.
“Since I can’t go through the theme park’s security with the hammer, I should head to the hospital.” Chen Ge turned his attention to his previous victims. “When I went in for the visitation, the futuristic theme park arranged for their people to follow me on the visitation. They experienced the terror for themselves, so they should have some connection with me.”
People were the most fragile when they were sick. Chen Ge planned to have a chat with the workers who had fainted inside the Haunted House at the hospital tomorrow, but of course, the premise had to be that they had already woken up.
“Worrying will not change the situation. I’d better get a good rest while I can.”
He set an alarm and then drifted off to sleep. At 8 am the next morning, after brushing his teeth and washing his face, he summoned Ol’ Bai and Doctor Wei. “I will leave the management of the Haunted House to you. I have something else to do in the morning.”
“Xiao Chen, what kind of problem are you facing?” Doctor Wei only needed one glance to realize how different Chen Ge was from normal. “Yesterday, I heard from Zhang Yi that the ghost fetus is going to come soon. Is that what you’re worried about?”
“I am slightly worried about that, but the problem is not as serious as he made it out to be.” Chen Ge flashed a bright smile. “Just take good care of the Haunted House and leave the rest of me.”
“Actually, you can rely on us when you need it. After all, this is place is our home too.”
“Okay, don’t worry.” Chen Ge had Doctor Wei and Ol’ Bai return to their respective scenarios. He opened the gates of the Haunted House and walked out. Since it was the holiday season, the employees had arrived earlier than necessary.
“Go in and do your make-up. For the next few days, I might not be around the Haunted House during the day, so I will leave everything in your capable hands.”
“Boss, doesn’t you normally go out at night? Why are you suddenly changing it to the day?” Gu Feiyu was a man without much cunning, and he asked that question directly.
“I have something to deal with. It should be able to be completed within nine days. After that, I will give everyone a chance to have a good break.” Chen Ge entered the dressing room and applied the make-up on the few employees seriously. “Thank you so much for all of your dedication.”
The competition between the New Century Park and the futuristic theme park had reached its climax. The workers had prepared a long time for this, so Chen Ge would not go and trouble them. He went to greet Uncle Xu. Before the theme park opened for business, Chen Ge carried the heavy backpack and left the theme park. He stopped a passing cab. Once he got into the car, the smile on Chen Ge’s face slowly disappeared.
“Where are we going?”
“The major crimes unit of the city police station.”
…
When Chen Ge arrived at the station, he glanced at the guard and then at the backpack he was carrying. After a moment’s thought, he decided not to barge in just like that but pulled out his phone to give Lee Zheng a call.
“Brother Zheng, it’s me.”
“Chen Ge? How can I help you?”
“I am outside the station now. Can you fetch me? There are certain things that I need to confirm.”
“You are the first person who dared speak in such tone to an inspector from the major crimes unit. Wait a minute, I’ll get you in a bit.”
Ten minutes after hanging up the phone, Lee Zheng appeared at the door.
“So, tell me, what do you want to confirm?”
“Can we go in and talk?”
“We do not allow normal citizen into this place.” Lee Zheng glanced at Chen Ge and then slightly shook his head. “Never mind, come with me.”
The two entered the station, and Lee Zheng led Chen Ge into an empty conference room.
“Everyone is working. It’s not too good for people to see you inside the building even though everyone knows you.” Glancing at Chen Ge’s backpack, Lee Zheng had a guess what was inside it. “Relax, do you want something to drink?”
“Brother Zheng, I have two things to ask you.” Chen Ge got to the chase immediately.
“Go ahead.”
“Has Chang Gu woken up?” Chen Ge cared a lot about Chang Gu. He was a director, and he specialized in using ghosts as actors in his movies. Other than that, he was the person who knew Chang Wenyu the best in this world. At the School of the Afterlife, Chang Wenyu had sacrificed herself to destroy the door, but she had ended up being ‘killed’ by the combined effort of several Top Red Specters. Theoretically speaking, her soul should have been torn apart already, but the black phone still had Chang Wenyu’s page even after her ‘death’. The black phone said that Chang Wenyu had not officially died. Chang Gu was Chang Wenyu’s only family, so if Chang Wenyu had to place her trust on a person in this world, that person would definitely be Chang Gu.
