Chapter 1127 - The Birth of an Actor 2 in 1 (1/2)
Before the memory of Patient 101 was wiped away, Zhang Yi still managed to scour some things. For example, the workers at the cursed hospital could be delineated as day shift doctors and night shift doctors. The day shift doctors were people who were not normal while the night shift doctors were ghosts that treated the patients. The cursed hospital had a lot of day shift doctors but only ten night shift doctors. This number had not changed in a very long time until a few days ago.
The most experienced night shift doctor had disappeared in Jiujiang. According to rumors, that specific doctor had accompanied the hospital director when he came to Jiujiang twenty years ago. He was one of the hospital director’s most trusted confidants. To investigate the reason behind that doctor’s disappearance, the cursed hospital had stopped at nothing. They had infiltrated Jiujiang through many different methods. Most of the people from the cursed hospital who had been spotted in Jiujiang were there to search for the missing night shift doctor, but there was also a very small portion of patients who had unique powers who were given other missions, like this Patient 101.
His unique power was his ability to keep his presence hidden. Even a Red Specter would not be able to tell that he had taken possession of a normal person. Other than that, he could tell whether a person was lying or not based on that person’s presence, and through the same presence, he could triangulate the target’s location. In other words, he was a walking lie detector and GPS tracker. Due to his unique power, he was given this heavy task by his attending doctor. The doctor had him disguise as a visitor to come visit Chen Ge’s haunted house and infiltrate the deepest part of the haunted house to see the real situation in Chen Ge’s haunted house.
Actually, the cursed hospital was already as careful as they could be. This could be seen from the steps that they had taken just in case things went wrong. The moment the eyeball exploded, all of Patient 101’s memories had started to silently disappear. If not for the fact that Chen Ge possessed Zhang Yi, this Half Red Specter who could read and delete people’s memories, he probably would not have gotten any information related to the cursed hospital.
“Overall, it is not a complete loss. Even though Patient 101 has collected some information for the hospital, he has also exposed the information about the cursed hospital to me. It is an even trade.” Chen Ge was about to have his employee yank Patient 101 out of Cha Wen’s body when Zhang Yi revealed yet another important nugget of information to Chen Ge. The patient’s garb and the items that he carried with him when he left the cursed hospital were hidden at Cha Wen’s rented apartment in Jiujiang. He had a feeling those things would perhaps be helpful to Chen Ge.
At the moment, Chen Ge could not draw himself away from the haunted house. He was worried that the cursed hospital might send other people after him, so he had to stay guard at the haunted house. Otherwise, if the Red Specters really got into a battle with those people, things would only get worse. At the end of the day, he was running a business. He was not going to risk his visitors’ lives. He could not leave the haunted house, but it did not mean that he could waste any time in going to get those items. That was because the cursed hospital might react right after Patient 101 was exposed, and they would send their own people to retrieve those items.
After some brief contemplation, Chen Ge had Zhang Yi give the address of the apartment to Bai Qiulin, and then Chen Ge had the latter go to the apartment immediately to grab the items left behind by Patient 101. Initially, Chen Ge wanted to send Men Nan on this mission, but he failed to find the boy in the scenario. Therefore, due to the time constraint, he had to leave the mission to Ol’ Bai.
“With the items from Patient 101 and parts of the memories that Zhang Ya managed to coax out from Patient 101, perhaps I could try to remake a new Patient 101.” Chen Ge’s eyes were shining. The cursed hospital prioritized the deletion of the memories that were related to the cursed hospital first, while the everyday habits and little details of Patient 101’s life were wiped out at the end. By then, Chen Ge had already had a full understanding of Patient 101’s personality. “All the patients at the cursed hospital were only given a number and no name. In other words, this Patient 101 could be called Zhang San or even Lee Si. Hell, he can even be called Sun Xiaojun.”
It would be very hard for Sun Xiaojun to take over the role of Patient 101 perfectly. First, he had to have superb acting skills and extremely powerful mental acuity. Furthermore, there would not be a script to follow, so he would need to have the ability to react to the changes around him as well. These were skills that Sun Xiaojun did not possess, but coincidentally enough, these were the skills that Chen Ge and the other haunted house actors specialized in. “Looks like I will need to give Sun Xiaojun some intense training and try my best to turn this coal into diamond as fast as I can.”
Chen Ge had great expectations of Sun Xiaojun. After all, Sun Xiaojun was someone who was given approval by both the black phone and the ghost fetus. Chen Ge himself had also experienced how uniquely talented Sun Xiaojun was. As long as he was placed at the right place, Sun Xiaojun could unleash an effect even larger than a Red Specter. The memory of the original Patient 101 was fading. Chen Ge did not plan to kill him. He temporarily removed him from Cha Wen’s body and then trapped him for now.
“The rest of you should take Cha Wen and his girlfriend to the red high heels. Tell her to remove the curses that are still inside their bodies.”
Seeing Cha Wen and his girlfriend as they were carried away, Chen Ge also sighed with lamentation.
“With just a small payment of forty RMB, you will be able to be granted the service of a Top Red Specter to have the curse taken out of your body. If that is not a steal, I do not know what is.”
After Cha Wen and his girlfriend left, Chen Ge immediately resumed his project of finding Sun Xiaojun. Ol’ Zhou, Duan Yue, and the other experienced employees followed closely behind him. The professional team had now officially taken over the game.
…
“Did you guys hear any voices?” Xiao Sun, who was surrounded in the group of visitors, suddenly turned back to look. There appeared to be a cry for help that came from the darkest part of the black fog.
“Stop trying to distract us.”
A moment after Ma Feng warned him, Shang Guan Qing Hong pulled lightly on his shirt. “CEO Ma, I do not think he was lying. I heard someone cry for help as well. It appeared to come from behind us.”
After Shang Guan Qing Hong said that, the group of visitors realized that something had happened. They turned back to look and realized that two more people had disappeared from their entourage.
“When did the couple disappear?” Now, Ma Feng was really panicking. Minus the three people from Jiujiang Medical University, their group of twelve only had four people left. When the others disappeared and how they disappeared, the survivors had no idea at all.
“We have been keeping our eyes on Sun Xiaojun so much that we forgot to check behind us. Is it possible that the haunted house employees used that opportunity to come after the two of them?” Shang Guan Qing Hong tried to analyze their situation. Ever since he entered this place, he had gotten a very bad feeling about this place. As his teammates started to be plucked off one after another, that bad feeling was slowly turning into reality.
“The method of disappearance of the couple is different from how Fu Bole and Wei Chaochao disappeared,” Sister Snake said with a darkened face. “The people that disappeared earlier, be it Liang Er and Liang San or Fu Bole and Wei Chaochao, they disappeared after they had left our line of sight, but that couple appears to have disappeared into thin air while they should have been steps away from us. It is incredibly difficult to make two living adults disappear without a trace at such a close distance to the other visitors, unless of course they chose to voluntarily leave on their own.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“I suspect the couple from Xin Hai are actually actors hired by the haunted house.” Sister Snake tried to rake her memory and said, “Do you still remember this detail that was mentioned in the files of information regarding this haunted house. There was a couple that died horribly inside this place, and their souls are still wondering around the various scenarios inside the haunted house and have been refusing to leave.”
“But according to my memory, the surname of the male victim is Zhou, and he is slightly older. When we entered the scenario, I purposely sneaked a look at the disclaimer forms of that couple from Xin Hai. Neither of them have the surname Zhou!”
