Chapter 210

About half an hour later, Captain Yan’s people also arrived at the scene . They were the ones who were tasked to follow up on the Third Sick Hall’s case .

“You’re Chen Ge?” The one leading was a large young man .

“Yes . ” Chen Ge had not seen this man before, so he likely was not a normal police officer at the station .

“Come with us . Before the victim is conscious, we’ll be responsible for your safety . ” The content was polite, but the tone was not . Chen Ge saw the surreptitious signal that Inspector Lee gave him, and he relaxed enough to follow this group of people to the hospital .

At 11:30 pm, Gu Feiyu awoke and told the police everything that happened . When Chen Ge tackled the mad woman, he still had half a wisp of consciousness left to remember seeing Chen Ge .

He had thought that he was going to die . This experience was something Gu Feiyu would never forget for life . Under his fervent demand, the police found Chen Ge and arranged for the two to meet . Meeting Chen Ge again, Gu Feiyu’s expression and tone were completely different from the first time they met . The young man was a man of simple beliefs . Holding Chen Ge’s hand, he thanked Chen Ge sincerely .

Seeing this, the police’s suspicion toward Chen Ge slowly dissipated . The leading young officer even praised him so much that Chen Ge felt rather embarrassed . At around midnight, Chen Ge exited the hospital . Standing at the empty junction, he looked at the city that was shrouded in darkness .

“I should tell them . ” Holding the half-torn flyer, Chen Ge called Captain Yan .

“Xiao Chen?”

“Captain Yan, I have something to tell you . ”

“Is it about Patient No . 2? Don’t worry, I got the report already . You’ve saved a human life, well done . ” But Captain Yan’s tone turned serious . “But I still don’t agree with your ways of private investigation . You’re toying with your life . ”

“Don’t worry, the discovery of Patient No . 2 today was pure coincidence . It won’t happen again . ” Chen Ge’s voice sounded raw . “I’m calling for another purpose . When I was eavesdropping on Patient No . 2, I overheard her mention a special organization; it’s called the ghost story society . ”

“Ghost story society?”

“Yes, listening to the name, it sounds like a gathering for horror story aficionados, but instead of making up stories, they only tell actual stories . ”

“When you overheard this? Who was Patient No . 2 talking to? Will we be able to find the record on her phone?” Captain Yan was suspicious .

“She wasn’t talking on the phone . There was a big sister persona hiding inside this woman, so you can understand why she was talking to herself . ” Chen Ge kept the half-torn flyer . “I suspect that this society is formed by the mental patients who escaped from the third sick hall, and the woman is probably one of the members . ”

“A ghost story society founded by a bunch of mental patients?” Captain Yan thought about it and told Chen Ge seriously, “I will have my people follow up on this . If you have any more information, please remember to call me . ”

“Of course . ”

After hanging up, Chen Ge pulled up his collar . They have to share a real story every week, but what if there’s no story to share? Create one themselves?

Chen Ge returned to New Century Park . When he entered the Haunted House, the white cat jumped down from the tree and followed behind him gracefully . “Next time, I’ll tie you up and bring you with me!”

After feeding the cat, Chen Ge took out the black phone to look over his refreshed daily missions . Chen Ge had seen two of them before; they were to deal with hidden security threats and to hire a new employee . The third daily mission Chen Ge saw for the first time . It asked Chen Ge to build a rest stop outside of the Haunted House . The time limit was one day, and the difficulty was normal .

The missions given by the black phone are the things that I need to do at my current status . Indeed, as the number of visitors increases, asking them to stand in line for a long time isn’t a good idea .

Chen Ge clicked on the screen to accept this mission . Then he used a pen and paper to design a simple rest stop .

There’s not enough budget . If there was enough money, I could set up a multi-purpose building next to the Haunted House to sell drinks and food for the visitors to recover and rest as well as a place to sell Haunted House merchandise .

Inspiration flooded into Chen Ge . I can learn from Tian Teng Medical School and get a large screen to introduce the background to each scenario . Then I can pick selected videos of certain visitors to broadcast on screen, and that should be able to incite curiosity and interest in other visitors .

Chen Ge drew on the paper . With the delineation in difficulty level, he had even prepared a ranking board depending on the difficulty and clear time . That would definitely motivate the thrill-seekers and achievement-hoarders . When he was done, the paper design was several pages thick .

Chen Ge arranged them and prepared to take them to meet Director Luo tomorrow morning . Hopefully, he would be able to convince the man . He glanced at the time; it was already 2 am . Chen Ge stretched lazily .

The only hidden security risk inside the Haunted House now is that door, but the ‘door’ only appears at midnight, so it won’t affect the visitors . The constant hints on the black phone should be a reminder that I should do something about that ‘door’ . The recruitment mission is even easier; I can just hire some from Tian Teng Medical School . Alas, now is not the time to make the move yet .

Chen Ge tapped his pen on the table as he compared the strengths and weaknesses between the two Haunted Houses . He was not one who was blinded by pride, and he knew which areas of his Haunted House were weaker compared to Tian Teng Medical School .

Tian Teng Medical School is small, but their scenes are seamlessly linked . In comparison, even though my Haunted House is bigger, there is also a lot more empty space .

This was not Chen Ge’s fault . He had gained the black phone about a week ago, and he had been busy completing the missions to expand the Haunted House, so there had to be some flaws .

I should add more scares in my Haunted House . Looks like I need to go make a new batch of props and mannequins tomorrow .

After several Trial Missions, Chen Ge had mastered more ways to scare people . His mind was filled with ideas, and he could not help but smile, imagining the screams from his visitors .

I can’t wait . I wonder who will be so lucky to be the first visitor to visit the Third Sick Hall .

Cat fur flashed before Chen Ge’s eyes . The white cat seemed to think Chen Ge was being very noisy . It jumped on the table, then jumped onto the bed and snuggled into the mattress .

Chen Ge also realized it was quite late . He set the alarm for 7 am and lay down beside the cat to sleep .

The sun rose, and Chen Ge cleaned the Haunted House . Then he left the place with the ideas he had jotted down the previous night .
