Chapter 818

Chen Ge yanked open the second cubicle; there was a thin, male mannequin inside . One of his legs was distorted as he curled up inside the cubicle with dirt and trash thrown haphazardly around him .

“This mannequin bears a resemblance to Wang Yicheng . ” The mannequin in the cubicle wore the same pair of blue running shoes as Wang Yicheng on Chen Ge’s back, so the mannequin should refer to Wang Yicheng . Chen Ge raised the phone at the second cubicle, and the picture on screen was heart wrenching . The faceless child was forced by a group of people into the cubicle, and they tossed various trash on him . The boy inside the picture did not resist and allowed them to bully him .

The mannequin in the third cubicle wore a pair of glasses, and his body was covered in red paint . He stood dumbly facing the wall . This mannequin looked similar to the thin, tall boy whom Chen Ge had encountered in Room 413 . With his previous experience, Chen Ge aimed the phone at the cubicle directly .

A faceless boy appeared on-screen . He stood inside the cubicle alone, and around him were people who kept pouring paint into the cubicle . His clean clothes were made dirty, and the paint slid down the creases of his shirt and shorts . The boy kept his head lowered, making no sound .

“These bullies have gained a mob mentality . ” Chen Ge pushed open the door of the fourth cubicle . The mannequin inside was shirtless . The wet shirt was abandoned next to the toilet . Chen Ge took out the phone and aimed it inside the cubicle . On the screen, the faceless boy slowly removed the shirt dirtied with paint while someone dumped a bottle of water on him .

Fifth cubicle, sixth cubicle…

Each cubicle presented a story that was harrowing . When people were carried away by madness, they had no idea how crazy they were acting, and they would stop at nothing to unload their negative emotions on others .

When he opened the first cubicle, Chen Ge had merely wanted to uncover the truth . He had nothing to do with events that transpired there . He was merely a passing visitor, a victim who wanted to leave . But after he witnessed the events inside the six cubicles, his heart was already changing . His face was drawn . If people who knew him had seen him then, they would have been surprised because he rarely had an expression like that . Facial expressions represented the internal emotion . If it showed on the face, one’s internal thoughts could be told, and the weakness would be exposed . Thus, when Chen Ge conducted the black phone’s mission, he always remained calm .

Are these students or demons?

Raising his head, Chen Ge looked at the seventh cubicle . This was the only cubicle without a mannequin and also the only cubicle without a door . The door had been taken off the hinges with brute force . The connecting spot still had broken wooden chips . It was hanging by a single hinge . The door was missing, and the inside of the cubicle was crawling with the blood vessel-like things . To be precise, the blood vessels inside the toilet crawled out from inside this cubicle . The seventh cubicle could be said to be the source of everything .

“Was Lin Sis trapped inside this cubicle?”

The black red blood vessels were like wilted veins . They crawled all over the cubicle’s walls like they were covering something . Chen Ge took out Lin Sisi’s phone, adjusted the brightness to the maximum, and aimed it at the cubicle .

The faceless boy was hugging his own shirt and pants . Dirty water and paint slid down his body . The colors were like a monster that was plunging its claws into the boy’s body .

The cubicle door appeared to be blocked from the outside . The boy had his head lowered, hugging his clothes . He rammed against the door . He had no face, so Chen Ge could not see his expression and could not hear his voice . He had no idea whether the boy was crying or screaming for help . Chen Ge could only see that the boy was ramming his body against the door until the door blasted open . He stood at the entrance of the cubicle barefooted, holding the dirty clothes . His arms dangled by his side, cut open by the wooden chips from when he rammed them against the door . Blood leaked out the open wounds, but paint seeped back into the wounds .

Pressured, uneasy, struggling to breathe, he twisted his head . The faceless boy scanned the empty toilet . The bullies had already left, but their venomous words lingered in the toilet . The boy stood at the cubicle entrance for a long time . He slowly took up his hands and put the wet clothes back on one by one .

Other than his arms, he was not injured, but his body kept shaking from pain . The middle of his pants was slit open, and there was a large hole on the back of his shirt . The boy put on all the clothes, and a poor monster was reflected in the water that puddled on the ground . He wiped his face and tried to walk toward the toilet door . The light from the corridor filtered into the toilet . The entrance was bright, bright enough to cast a clear shine on the boy’s current appearance, bright to the point that he had nowhere to hide .

He pulled his feet back . He wore the dirty clothes and walked back into the seventh cubicle . Leaning against the wall, the boy’s body slowly slid down the wall . He was curled up in the corner . The faceless face looked at the toilet entrance; he appeared to be waiting for the lights to go out .

The image did not end there . The boy looked for a long time before lifting his head . The faceless face looked at Chen Ge like he knew someone was watching him .

“Would you like to be my friend?” This question drifted into Chen Ge’s ears . He heard it clearly, but when he turned to the source, there was nothing there .

“Did it come from the phone? That’s impossible . ” The video stopped at the last frame . The faceless boy was curled up in the corner of the cubicle with his face turned to Chen Ge like he was waiting for Chen Ge’s answer .

“I am willing to be your friend . Even though what you said sounded like a curse . ” Chen Ge did not mind a curse; his whole life started with a cursed love letter . Without that letter, during his first mission, he would have died at Wang Qi’s hand .

Chen Ge gave his promise, but the boy in the phone retained his posture . Looking away from the phone, there was nothing inside the seventh cubicle, but the phone could capture the faceless boy so clearly .

“Can you hear me?” Chen Ge tried to communicate with the boy, but there was no reply . He waited for a long time before the image on the phone-started to change again .

The door of the seventh cubicle was pulled open, and a blood red hand reached in . The hand touched the faceless boy lightly . He seemed to communicate with the boy, and the faceless boy nodded lightly . Then the faceless boy was led away by the hand toward the other side of the door and disappeared .

“The bloody hand came from inside the door? What did he tell the boy?” Chen Ge was suddenly reminded of the question that he had heard .

“Did the owner of the hand tell the boy what I heard? Would you like to be my friend?

“The faceless boy agreed and then disappeared?”

Chen Ge tried to analyze the situation . The faceless boy was Lin Sisi . He did not push open a door; that bloody hand had reached out from inside the door . In other words, there was a door inside the toilet cubicle . The hand’s owner had invited Lin Sisi, and the latter had accepted . In that case, the bloody hand was the real door-pusher .
