Chapter 615

The taxi was parked at the entrance of the tunnel, and Chen Ge’s focus was captured as he studied one page of the comic . After a long time, there was a commotion coming from the driver’s seat, so Chen Ge pulled the door lightly open . “You’re finally awake . “

He tapped the driver’s face and then covered his mouth . He predicted that the first thing the driver would do after waking up was scream, so he took the precaution . The driver’s eyes flew open, and his face was covered in fear .

“Calm down, and listen to me . ” After conversing with the spider-boy, Chen Ge had not left immediately . To ensure that the mission was completed, he had spent time inside the tunnel until the sun rose . After one night of exploration, Chen Ge had discovered many things .

Many spirits that died from car accidents had made their home inside the tunnel; the place was as dangerous as the underground morgue . However, whenever the shadow came, he would commit to a total cleanse, taking away or consuming all the spirits that blocked his way . As time passed, the number of ghosts in White Dragon Cave Tunnel decreased, and in a way, Chen Ge benefited from that .

They had come across so many ghosts heading toward the tunnel when they arrived because that was the boy laying the bait for them to come . The boy had been injured in the battle with the shadow, and the fastest way to recover was to feed .

After some communication, Chen Ge knew that the boy was still hiding his special power, and that power appeared to be related to his large spider body . Chen Ge did not interact too much with the boy, and for the time being, he did not plan to bring the boy back to his Haunted House . After pushing open the ‘door’ in the fire, the boy had been completely corrupted .

He hated everything other than his mother . Selfishness, hatred, anger—all the negative human emotions could be found on the boy’s body, so in other words, the boy was much more dangerous than he appeared .

Pulling back his thought, Chen Ge turned to the panicking driver, and his voice softened . “We seemed to have run into ghosts tonight . “

Slowly releasing his hand, Chen Ge put his backpack on the passenger seat and said calmly, “We’ll talk on the road, but for now, let’s leave this haunted place first . “

The driver immediately started the car and turned to rush down the road . “What happened earlier? I remember there were three, no, wait, two strange passengers inside the car, and then we were carried into White Dragon Tunnel Cave . There were many people rapping against the car window, and there were bloody handprints everywhere . The car broke down, and the phone couldn’t be used…”

As he spoke, the driver sounded like he was about to cry . Chen Ge quickly tried to calm his emotions . “I think you were possessed . I got into your car in Western Jiujiang, and I wanted to go to Eastern Jiujiang to visit a friend . But on the way, when we passed an old, empty, abandoned building, you suddenly stopped and rolled down the window to talk to the air . Then you even opened the car door . You have no idea how scared I was . “

“You didn’t see anyone?” The driver’s face was blanched .

“There was no one there; I only saw you talking to air . Then something creepier happened . After driving for a while, you suddenly stepped on the brake, screaming about almost hitting someone . I quickly turned to look, but there was no one on the road . Then, without asking for my opinion, you opened the backdoor and started rambling again . ” Chen Ge complained to the driver like he was the wronged party . “Then, just when I thought things couldn’t get weirder, after finishing your one-sided conversation, you drove the car right into White Dragon Cave Tunnel . I tried but couldn’t stop you . “

“I think I have a memory of that . ” The driver took in a cold breath . He felt like his limbs were frozen . “Have I really been possessed? Are there actual ghosts in this world?”

“That, I cannot answer, but in any case, you have given me the biggest scare of my life tonight . ” Chen Ge hugged the backpack that radiated a faint scent of blood and looked quite pitiable .

“We probably ran into ghosts then . ” The driver looked at the squeaky clean car window—there was not one bloody handprint in sight . He had no idea that it was Chen Ge and all of his employees who had cleaned his car for almost an hour . His heart was shaking, and the driver kept feeling something was wrong . However, he kept his lips zipped, and he only sighed in relief after driving out of Eastern Jiujiang .

As the sky was hazy with light, the driver dropped Chen Ge off at New Century Park .

“Just drop me here . Here’s 100, keep the change . ” Chen Ge was about to leave when the driver grabbed his sleeve . “What’s wrong?”

“Big brother, are you sure you didn’t see anything last night?” The driver glanced around his car . “Please, give me a direct answer . I don’t think I’ll be able to drive this car anymore . I keep feeling like there’s something inside here . “

“Don’t worry, your car now is very clean, and in the future, stop driving to Eastern Jiujiang,” Chen Ge said as he grabbed his bag and headed into the park .

“What exactly happened last night? Oh right, I can check the vehicle camera… Wait a minute, who removed the machine? If it’s a ghost, then it sure is a high-tech ghost!”

…

Returning to the Haunted House, Chen Ge went into the staff breakroom and took out the black phone . As the sun rose, he received the mission complete message .

“Congratulation Specters’ Favored for completing three-star Trial Mission .

“A new scenario, The End of the Tunnel, has been unlocked .

“The End of the Tunnel: What is at the end of the tunnel?

“Mission Completion Rate: 20%

“Hidden reward not yet unlocked . “

The completion rate is low, just slightly higher than the rate at Coffin Village, Chen Ge, sitting in bed, thought to himself . Since the completion rate is only twenty percent, it looks like the boy in the tunnel still hid something very important from me . He must have lied to me last night, but it is hard to tell what the lie was .

The boy had a hatred-filled heart, so it was normal for him not to trust Chen Ge . If not for his mother, the boy would have hanged Chen Ge .

Looks like he needs some real education .

Putting the phone away, Chen Ge went underground and found the newly-unlocked scenario next to the Twin Water Ghost pool .

It was a tunnel that one could not see the end of . Chen Ge had no idea where it led, and just standing at the entrance, Chen Ge could feel the bone-chilling wind that radiated out .

The boy can only open the door inside his body at White Dragon Cave Tunnel . I wonder if he can do the same if he’s here at this Haunted House replica .

The boy was unique because he was in possession of a mobile door . Chen Ge valued that because he believed that in the near future, the boy would have a huge role to play .

After sealing up the entrance, Chen Ge left . He planned to remake all of these recent scenarios to combine them into a large faux-four-star scenario after completing the 3 . 5-star scenario in Li Wan City .

He already had a concept inside his mind .

When this large scenario is built, my Haunted House should rise to a new height .

Focused on dealing with the shadow, it had been so long since Chen Ge admired the happy expressions on his visitors’ faces .

The weather forecast said that there might be a rain tonight . After the sun sets, I should go explore the area around Li Wan City to see if I can run into the woman with the red raincoat .
