Chapter 1003 - I Can Hear Your Voice (1/2)
Chen Ge calmed down after knowing how to escape. The door is slowly approaching the boy. When a Red Specter appears, it will make some noise to remind the boy. No matter how you look at it, the door has no malicious intent toward the boy.
Scratching his chin, Chen Ge thought, Something inside the door wishes to come out but I didn’t see such a creature when I am inside here, has they gone into hiding?
The thing inside the door didn’t want to harm Jiang Ming so it wouldn’t be the monsters radiating evil.
Perhaps this is the place Jiang Ming lost his hearing. Chen Ge remembered the mission message on the black phone. The ghost fetus’ mission is a life and death game of hide and seek. Am I suppose to enter the door to find the thing the ghost fetus has hidden? This could be my first direct challenge toward the ghost fetus.
That seemed possible. He took out the black phone and wanted to check the mission details again when footsteps came from the second-floor corridor. They were very light footsteps. It sounded like a child walking on their tiptoes. If not for Ghost Ear, Chen Ge would not have heard it.
Someone is passing by? This thought entered Chen Ge’s mind, and he widened his eyes. Impossible! The monsters formed from memory will not make any sound—I experimented with that earlier!
Since he was deaf, Jiang Ming could not hear the world, but he could hear the sound in his own heart. The world behind the door was made from his memories. The only person who could make any noise there, other than outsiders like Chen Ge, was Jiang Ming himself!
After Chen Ge opened the cubicle door, he found that there was no one in the toilet. He carried the hammer and the backpack as he left the toilet. He saw a group of children standing in the corridor. The children wore clothes that were much cleaner than the neighbors’. They were holding some toys as if in the middle of some interesting game.
Is Jiang Ming among them?
Chen Ge slowly approached them with the hammer. Before he arrived, the children noticed Chen Ge. The children looked friendly, and their clothes were pretty and clean, but their appearance was something else. They had exceptionally large eyes, and their mouths grew wide like they were all trying to mimic the Joker. The leading boy pointed at Chen Ge and then pulled on his ears. The surrounding children started to laugh. From Chen Ge’s perspective, he could not hear any sound, and he could not hear the children’s laughter, but he could see their ugly expressions.
These kids are making fun of me.
His eyes narrowed, Chen Ge observed closely. Through the children’s moving lips, he got the gist of what they were saying. They were mocking Chen Ge for his stupidity because he was different from them. They said that his deafness was infectious and that those who played with him would become deaf.
Looks like Jiang Ming is not among them. A deaf person would not laugh along to these ‘jokes’.
Chen Ge raised the hammer, but he did not attack the children.
It’s meaningless to injure these kids. After I leave this world, I will go back to the real life to teach a lesson and have them come to apologize to Jiang Ming.
The neighbors were impossible to communicate with, and Chen Ge believed that it was because Jiang Ming was just a child and did not have that much interaction with adults. However, it would be different with people his age. Jiang Ming clearly remembered the mocking and jabs these kids made at him. They seemed to have played together often, so Chen Ge believed that he could find clues on Jiang Ming from these kids. He squatted down and tried to gesture with his hands, attempting to communicate with the kids without making any noise.
