Chapter 206

“Inspector Lee, I’ve found one of the suspects from the mental hospital . She’s currently hiding in Xin Kang Apartments . ” Chen Ge told Inspector Lee the physical features of the woman .

“Are you mistaken? The woman you described sounds completely different from the person we’re looking for . Furthermore, she shouldn’t have the ability to detain someone . ”

“Her information matches Patient No . 2 from the third sick hall very well . She might have a partner . In any case, I’m fifty percent sure of my suspicion . ” Chen Ge was afraid that the driver might overhear him and arouse unnecessary misunderstanding, so he kept his voice low .

“Okay, I’ll personally take a look . ” After getting Inspector Lee’s reply, Chen Ge ended the call and returned to Fang Hwa Apartments . He entered through the backdoor and made sure to avoid the cameras .

The drunkard in the elevator saw the white shadow several months ago, and it ran without sound . That thing has to be a ghost . There’s a ghost living in the building, but for the past few years, there have not been any injury report at Fang Hwa Apartments . Are people purposely hiding the information, or is something else going on here?

After sneaking into the third building, Chen Ge moved the cleaver to a spot where he could reach it easily . If there was a nasty surprise, he would be able to pull the cleaver out at first notice . He climbed up the stairs and used half an hour to familiarize himself with the layout of the building . There’s no basement, so only 23 floors in total . Why does the elevator have twenty-four numbers?

This was a question that Chen Ge did not understand . However, due to the warning from Wang Xin’s mother, he did not dare take the elevator . After a few more turns, Chen Ge returned to the 13th floor . With Inspector Lee watching, he did not need to worry about Xin Kang Apartments . His responsibility was to stay put and watch over Room 3 .

If it really is Patient No . 2 staying in Room 3133, the white shadow is probably the thing that possessed Patient No . 2 .

If the creatures inside the door wanted to survive outside the door, they needed to possess a living person . Their relationship was quite symbiotic . The corridor was very quiet because most of the tenants of this floor had already moved away .

I wonder if I can run into the white shadow tonight .

He looked down the corridor and saw one of the doors open . The light from inside the room filtered out into the corridor .

Someone’s home? Chen Ge walked toward the door, and the closer he got, the weirder he felt . Wait, isn’t this Room 3133?

The paper that was pasted to the door had been taken down, and it had been crumbled up and tossed to the floor . Chen Ge glanced into the room . The floor was tiled, and there was little furniture . There was a curtain that sat in the living room to split it into two .

The owner has returned? After Chen Ge left Xin Kang Apartments, he had taken thirty minutes to tour around the building, so this was entirely possible . He waited by the door, and two minutes passed, but there was still no sound coming from inside the room .

Chen Ge pulled the cleaver out from his backpack and silently pushed the door open . He snuck into the room and pushed the door back to its original angle . He made sure he did not leave any footprints before entering the room .

The room was tiny, and two anomalies caught Chen Ge’s attention . There was a very large bathtub in the bathroom, and other than a fridge, there was a locked freezer in the kitchen .

Is it hiding a body?

There was no other logical explanation than this . All the doors in the room were open . After exiting the kitchen, Chen Ge entered the bedroom . There were several dark coats hanging in the closet, and on top of the closet was a large black leather suitcase . The case looked old, and just as Chen Ge stood on his tiptoe to pull the case down, there was clicking of high heels coming from the outside corridor .

He looked around and carried his backpack to hide inside the closet . If I’m discovered, it’s over .

Chen Ge looked through the open slit of the closet . The front door was pushed open, and a man and woman stood outside of the door . The man walked in front, holding a police baton . He was wearing the security’s outfit and looked to be in his twenties .

“You really saw the white shadow?”

“Yes, around half an hour ago . When I was opening the door, a flash of white appeared from the elevator! I was so scared; I didn’t think to close my door and dashed into the stairwell to save my life . ”

The woman who trailed behind wore a pair of red high heels . She was very fashionable . Her frame was on the slighter side, and she had a head of luscious black hair . Chen Ge could not see her face clearly because she was wearing a mask .

Chen Ge had seen them both tonight . The male was Gu Feiyu, the new night guard, and the female was the woman who had taken the elevator from the 13th floor and run in a hurry to the underground parking lot .

“Stay here, I’ll go to the elevator to take a look . ” Gu Feiyu was not only straightforward, he was very brave as well .

“Don’t leave me here alone…” The woman pulled on Gu Feiyu’s uniform .

“I won’t go too far . ” Gu Feiyu did not care about the woman’s feelings . He grabbed his baton and flashlight as he ran to the elevator . He inspected the corners seriously but did not find any trace of the white shadow .

“Did you see wrongly?”

“Impossible . ” The woman’s voice was trembling . “Do you think that thing has entered my home?”

She stood behind Gu Feiyu, watching her own home, but did not dare step forward .

“According to the captain, this place is haunted . If you’re that afraid, you should consider moving out,” Gu Feiyu said what was on his mind without filter . “The earlier tenant was a mad woman, so you might have been cheated when you bought this place . ”

“It wasn’t me who bought this place . The mad woman you mentioned is my big sister . After her disappearance, this apartment got transferred to my name . ” When the woman mentioned her sister, her expression fell . “All of you say that she’s mad, but she’s the person who treated me with the most kindness in this world . ”

The woman walked into the room . The sound her high heels made against the tiles was very crisp . “Don’t just stand out there . If you keep the door open, something might slip in . ”

“It’s okay . I still need to return to my patrol . ”

“Please come in and help me find the white shadow . You can leave after we make sure it’s not here . ” The woman dragged Gu Feiyu into the room and closed the front door .

“Okay…”

Gu Feiyu walked through the living room to the balcony while the woman turned into the bedroom . Chen Ge held his breath as the woman got near . If she opened the closet door now, she would get a ‘surprise’ that she would never forget .

After closing the bedroom door, the woman walked to the make-up table and removed her mask in front of the mirror . She pulled out many cans and bottles from the drawer and started to touch-up her make-up . When she was done, she slipped a small plastic canister into her pocket and left .

“I’ve checked the bedroom; the white shadow is not in there . ”

When the woman turned, Chen Ge caught a glimpse of her face . Her skin was pale, and she looked very familiar .
