Chapter 390
The cursor clicked on the other files on the desktop . Most of them were in English, and Chen Ge could barely understand it . He opened the comic to summon the English teacher, but ghosts seemed to receive plenty of damage when they appeared in places where sunlight could hit them directly . Chen Ge looked at how fragile Duan Yue was and did not force her . Without any other solution, Chen Ge took out his phone to snap all the information . Chen Ge exited the camera app and called Inspector Lee .
“Uncle San Bao, I have a favor to ask . “
“Is it about the blood test result on the nail? I’ll go help you rush it in the afternoon . ” Inspector Lee sounded like he was outside and not at the police station .
“No, I want you to help me investigate the owner of Room 3004 at Fang Hwa Apartments . “
“Why do you want to do that?”
“It’s related to the culprit . I feel like I’m close to catching the man!”
“Okay, I will try my best . “
After hanging up, Chen Ge thought back to everything that he had touched in the room . He cleaned up his fingerprints and left Room 3004 . He called a taxi to get back to New Century Park—a new day had begun .
The one-star mission triggered by the Special Visitor, Liu Xianxian, had not been completed . Technically speaking, Chen Ge had already followed the black phone’s requirement to find Liu Xianxian, but he did not receive the message that the mission had been completed . I probably need to help her solve the issue in her heart .
The mission would not be that difficult . The man that she loved might be a murderer, so if Chen Ge could prove that, Liu Xianxian should know what to do . After all, one of the man’s victims was her best friend’s older sister .
With his employees getting more familiar with the work, Chen Ge became freer . Since he had nothing to do, he called Lee Zheng during his lunch break to ask for an update on the case . In reality, he was more concerned about that statue . He wanted to sneak that statue to his Haunted House .

Lee Zheng was at the new campus, interviewing people . No one had any recollection of that statue . It felt as if the statue had walked to the underground storeroom itself . The case ended up in a standstill . Chen Ge gave Lee Zheng a hint, asking him to pay close attention to the man Liu Xianxian had a crush on .
There was no accident that business day . One thing worth noting was that some people had started to challenge the three-star scenario . This group had probably heard about how Coffin Village had caused five people to faint, so they very naturally avoided that scenario and targeted the Third Sick Hall .
They were so confident before they entered, but they all surrendered before they were even halfway through . However, this did raise an alarm in Chen Ge . As more visitors started to challenge the three-star scenarios, eventually, the scenario would be cleared .
I should pace myself . The most crucial thing is to deal with the ghost stories society and complete Third Sick Hall’s hidden mission .
Sitting inside the room, Chen Ge took out his comic . He had Yan Danian and the other ghosts try to communicate the phone spirit . He allowed them to use any method to convince the phone spirit that it was such a wonderful and blissful thing to work for Chen Ge’s Haunted House .
Time slowly passed . Chen Ge’s phone suddenly rang at 4 pm . He thought that it was Inspector Lee calling him with an update, but when he glanced at the caller ID, it was an unfamiliar number .
“Why would a stranger call me?” Chen Ge accepted the call and placed the phone beside his ear .
“I’m sorry, but is this Mr . Chen?”
“Yes, it’s me . ” It was the first time Chen Ge had heard the voice on the other side of the phone, and it was laced with sadness .
“Are you the one who helped solve the case at Ping An Apartments?”

“Yes . “
“Do you have time now? The old gentleman’s condition is deteriorating . I’m afraid he won’t be able to stay with us any longer . ” Hearing that, Chen Ge was stunned . “Hello? Are you there? Can you please come over? The old gentleman stated his wish to see you in person . “
“I’ll be there in a minute . ” Chen Ge took out his phone to call Xu Wan and Gu Feiyu, who were working . He told them that they should close up after the current visitors left . They were not going to accept any more visitors .
He ran into the staff breakroom, holding the phone . Pushing the door open, he saw Xiaoxiao hugging the white cat’s tail . They looked at one another like they were in some sort of fight . In the end, it was the white cat who surrendered . It allowed Xiaoxiao to hug its tail as much as she wanted . It revealed a haughty expression like it did not want to lower itself to a girl’s standard .
Xiaoxiao snuggled herself face into the white cat’s body . Smothered by the puffy white fur, she felt it was quite interesting .
“Xiaoxiao…” Chen Ge stood at the door and silently shoved the phone into his pocket . He walked to the bed and picked Xiaoxiao up . “Let’s go pay your grandpa a visit . “
This time, Chen Ge did not place her inside his pocket but held her in his cupped palm . Xiaoxiao seemed to sense something as she looked at Chen Ge with a strange expression . Closing the door, Chen Ge charged out of the Haunted House .
“Uncle Xu, we’re closing early today . Please help me console the visitors . When Xu Wan comes out, please remind her to close the gate before she leaves . ” Chen Ge ran toward the park exit .
“You’re closing at 4 pm? Where are you going‽” Uncle Xu was completely caught by surprise . The visitors standing in lines were nervous, too, especially the few who were at the front of the line .
“Boss, how can you do business like this‽ The closing hour is 7 pm, but it’s only 4 pm now!”
“I didn’t have the chance to line up last time! This time, it’s finally my turn . Can’t we discuss this?”
“This is so rude!”
The visitors berated him . Chen Ge was surrounded in the middle, and in his arms, Xiaoxiao were shivering with fear . Chen Ge used his hand to caress Xiaoxiao’s head, and he turned to tell the visitors, “This is my Haunted House’s responsibility . If you have bought the ticket but haven’t entered the scenario, then I’ll compensate double the price . “
Chen Ge turned to glance at Uncle Xu . “Uncle Xu, please help me record who needs compensation, I’ll pay later . “
“You can leave if you have an emergency, but we still have Xu Wan and Gu Feiyu . Couldn’t we just let them carry on until you return?” Uncle Xu was confused . “Initially, only you and Xu Wan managed the place, and everything was fine, right?”
“It’s different . Safety first . I don’t want to risk it . ” Chen Ge’s tone brooked no argument . “Just do what I ask . “
Chen Ge did not hesitate and carried Xiaoxiao as he squeezed through the crowd . Perhaps because there were so many people, Xiaoxiao curled up in Chen Ge’s embrace like she was afraid .
“It’ll be fine, I’m here . “
Chen Ge touched Xiaoxiao’s face and called for a taxi to get to the hospital .
Chen Ge arrived at 4:30 pm . He called the doctor and rushed up the stairs .
When he pushed open the door to the second-floor corridor, two familiar faces walked toward him—Doctor Gao and Ol’ Wei .
