Chapter 1157 - You Are My Seventh Friend 2 in 1 (1/2)

Since Gao Ru Xue refused to answer Chen Ge’s calls, he had no choice but to personally go to her place. He knocked on her door for several minutes before Gao Ru Xue opened the door. She looked so much more haggard, and she had lost quite a bit of weight. “Chen Ge?”

“Do you mind if I come in to talk with you?” Chen Ge carried his backpack. He had not slept that night. His eyes were bloodshot, and he did not look much better than Gao Ru Xue. “I have something that I have to discuss with your father, but I need your help to be able to find him.”

With a small nod, Gao Ru Xue opened the door and allowed Chen Ge to enter the room. The room was covered with a thin layer of dust. It was clear that the place had not been properly cleaned for quite some time, but at least overall the place still looked rather passable. Everything was neat, if a little bit dusty.

“I also would like to talk to him, but I have no idea where he is.” Gao Ru Xue sat on the couch. Even though a decent amount of time had passed since the incident at the underground morgue, Gao Ru Xue could not stop the change in her expression whenever she talked about her father.

“I need some of your blood.” Chen Ge did not wish to go into detail. He stated his reason for being there directly.

“My blood?” Gao Ru Xue slowly lifted her head that was previously lowered. She looked at Chen Ge with open confusion before she stretched out her arm toward Chen Ge. “Using my blood, you will be able to find out where my dad currently is, right?”

“It might not be successful, but it is worth a try.” Hearing that, the light in Gao Ru Xue’s eyes slowly dimmed, but she still did not pull her arm back. Instead, she said, “If you really do succeed in meeting him, remember to tell him that I miss him a lot.”

“Of course.” Chen Ge had Gao Ru Xue close her eyes, and then he summoned out the red high heels. A black curse like an iron needle pierced into Gao Ru Xue’s body and sucked out a drop of blood right from her heart.

“You can open your eyes now.” Chen Ge looked at Gao Ru Xue’s pale face, and he gave her a serious promise. “I will relay your words to Doctor Gao personally, and I will try my best to help your family if it is within my power.”

After he left Gao Ru Xue’s home, before Chen Ge moved that far away, Chen Ge got some good news. By applying a curse on both the blood vessels inside the white cat’s body and the blood from Gao Ru Xue’s heart, the red high heels had successfully sensed a very scary presence. Based on Chen Ge’s prediction, the monster that was giving off this scary presence should be none other than Doctor Gao

“It is a good thing that we can sense his presence. After we enter the world behind the door, perhaps the intensity of this presence will become much stronger.”

After he walked out from the apartment, Chen Ge rushed to Jiujiang Children’s home and retrieved a drop of blood from Fan Yu. After he was done with everything, Chen Ge silently returned to New Century Park and woke up Ol’ Wu before theme park opened for business. “Brother Wu, it is time to wake up. We should prepare to return to Xin Hai already.”

Ol’ Wu, who was fast asleep, was shaken awake. He looked at Chen Ge blurrily. There were so many questions on his face.

Chen Ge tried his best to help ‘recover’ his memory. “Last night, I asked you for a favor to drive me back to Jiujiang to get something. Did you forget about that?”

“Yes, I think I do remember that.” Ol’ Wu rubbed his head.

“So, let’s return to Xin Hai. I have already gotten everything that I needed.” Chen Ge placed the white cat on the backseat. He had already done everything that he could. What he needed to do next was focus all his energy against that cursed hospital and get to the bottom of the mystery behind his parent’s disappearance. The car left New Century Park in the morning, and they arrived in Xin Hai when the sun was at its peak.

“Brother Wu, if possible, stop using this car. Other than that, I need you to remind Mr. Wang not to go out late at night. It will also be best if the two of you are staying somewhere with a lot of people.” Chen Ge was worried that the car might be targeted by the cursed hospital, so he gave Ol’ Wu a kind reminder.

“Okay.” Ol’ Wu dropped Chen Ge at the Nightmare Academy and then left in a hurry.

Chen Ge carried his backpack and hugged the white cat as he pushed open the front door to the Nightmare Academy. Once he stepped into the building, he felt something was not quite right. Because they had not yet prepared to open for business, the central air con was not on, but at that moment it was curiously cold inside the haunted house. “Xiao Die? Zhang Jingjiu?”

With a bad feeling in his heart, Chen Ge flipped through the comic to summon out several Red Specter employees.

“Search the entire building!” Chen Ge ordered in a serious tone. He did move away from the entrance. He stood right at the front door. If there was a trap, he would turn and run at the first notice. Half a minute later, Men Nan appeared before Chen Ge. “There is no one inside the haunted house.”

“Did something or someone come here last night?” Chen Ge was very worried about the safety of his haunted house employees.

“We cannot sense the trace of the presence of any other baleful Specters, but I can say for sure that something indeed infiltrated this place last night.” Men Nan pointed at the entrance to one of the scenarios. “Come and take a look at this.”

Being escorted in the middle of several Red Specters, Chen Ge walked to the entrance of the scenario. The wooden doors that led into every scenario were covered in paper notes, and every single note had that familiar statement on it.

“This is a sickened world. Why have you not discovered that fact? I swear to cure you!”

The paper notes with different handwriting covered the many wooden doors, and it looked intensely creepy.

“This has to be the doing of that cursed hospital.” Chen Ge was reminded of a detail. The previous morning, when he returned to the Nightmare Academy from his Red Specter hunting, he had felt a sharp gaze that was watching him from Shi Li Xiang eatery. Perhaps from then on, he had already been targeted. “Time to go to Shi Li Xiang eatery.”

It was just past the lunch time, so there were not that many people inside the eatery. Chen Ge burst through the door with several Red Specters behind him.

“Welcome to Shi Li Xiang. How can I help you today?” The waiter very passionately walked toward Chen Ge, but the latter ignored him directly. He walked toward the counter and strode toward the door that was meant for employees only.

“Hey!” This was the first time the waiter had encountered a customer so rude and unreasonable. He was about to reach forward to stop Chen Ge when his body was suddenly drained of power, and he collapsed onto the chair behind him. Chen Ge did not want to waste time on meaningless actions. Without wasting any time, he rushed into the kitchen at the back, and he saw the boss of the shop who was pouring something into a big vat of sauce. The boss was Chi Longtou.

“Zhang Yi!”

Wasting no time for a single pleasantry, when Chi Longtou saw Chen Ge, Zhang Yi had already crawled into his body. About ten seconds later, Zhang Yi crawled out from the back of Chi Longtou’s head, and he reported with a disappointed expression. “The enemy appears to have realized that I can look through people’s memories, so this man’s memory has already been tampered with. I cannot find any useful information.”

The cursed hospital had realized that Chen Ge had a Specter who could look through people’s memories, so they had sent someone over to deal with Chi Longtou’s memory. Chen Ge had already predicted that the Demon God with the surname Chi would be able to look through a living individual’s memory, so he did not reveal the presence of Chi Ren to any of his living employees. He had kept Chi Ren hidden inside the headmaster’s office. The devil was always in the detail.
