The statue had once had a relationship with the ghost stories society, but she now belonged to Chen Ge's Haunted House. Rushing down into the underground parking, Chen Ge pushed open the door to the one-star scenario Wife's Room. The ugly statue stood next to the bed, her expressionless eyes gazing toward a particular direction in the room. No one knew what she had faced in the past. Just what did Ol' Zhou and the rest tell her? How come she looks so devastated compared to before?
Chen Ge walked to stand beside the sculpture and took out Yan Danian's comic. "I've identified your real killer, and as long as you're willing to be my employee, even if I put my life on the line, I will help you take revenge."
The statue did not understand what Chen Ge said, but Chen Ge could feel her body shivering like there was a change to her emotion. "The man who killed you is hidden at the deepest part of the underground morgue. The place is very dangerous, but if you are willing to join my Haunted House, I'll bring all the employees with me to demand a justice for you."
Chen Ge had come fully prepared, and he sounded confident and strong. It was obvious that he was not kidding; he really did plan to do this. The statue still felt that something was wrong. However, after she used her power, she confirmed that what Chen Ge had said was the truth; he was not lying to her. "I will take revenge for you. Tonight, I will enter the underground morgue to capture the culprit that once harmed you."
The statue's ugly face looked at Chen Ge, and blood tears started to fall from her eyes. Chen Ge was telling the truth; he was really prepared to go down into the underground morgue that night to risk his life. "Come with me, you are more familiar with the place. If you are willing to help me, things will be a lot simpler."
The statue was afraid. She really did not want to return to the underground morgue—the terror of the place was something unimaginable to outsiders—but she could not say no to Chen Ge's invitation. The man before her had helped her solve her problem and was willing to sacrifice his personal safety to venture into somewhere so dangerous. He intentions provided some semblance of warmth to her cold heart.
Seeing that enough groundwork had been laid, Chen Ge flipped open Yan Danian's comic. "Come with me. When we're there, I still have a lot more questions that I wish to ask you."
The statue had stayed in the underground storeroom for years, so she would be very familiar with the place. That was one of the main reasons that Chen Ge had to take her with him. The tears in the eyes stopped flowing, and the statue's ugly face started to change. The face that represented truth softened, and a 1.7-meter-tall girl appeared before the statue. The girl looked quite similar to Ma Yin—she was very reserved, and it was probably hereditary because both girls were very tall.
After the girl left the statue, she immediately crawled into Yan Danian's comic, and on the empty page, a female statue appeared. The statue was radiating sadness, pain, betrayal, and despair.
With the girl's aid, the chance of success for tonight's mission has increased a lot. Chen Ge left the Wife's Room and headed to Mu Yang High School. He transferred the boy with the heavy stench and the hanging man into the comic as well.
When the completion rate of the Third Sick Hall was over ninety percent, I was rewarded a patient's list of all the mental patients. Each record carried the soul of a mad person, should I bring that with me?
The mad people were originally members of the ghost stories society. Even after their deaths, they were controlled by their madness, and Chen Ge normally did not dare use them.
I should bring them with me. At the very least, I'll gain an additional trump card. Chen Ge thought about it and shoved the patient's list into his backpack. When the society's chairperson sees all of his members standing on my side, I wonder how he'll react.
Chen Ge also thought that he had perhaps crossed a line; he had not only inherited all the items that the ghost stories society collected over the years but also recruited all of its past members. The ghost stories society lacked good leadership, and that was why they all acted this way. After I take over as the chairperson, I will change everything so that the members can receive real salvation.
Carrying the bag and holding the hammer, Chen Ge left the Haunted House. He did not even have the chance to close the gate before Lee Zheng's phone call came. "After Doctor Gao's disappearance, Gao Ru Xue's emotional state has become very unstable. She seems to know something; we need you to go over to make contact with her immediately and try to dig for valuable information."
"Brother Zheng, I have something else to do tonight, and I'm afraid I won't be able to stay for long. How about you try to find other people to communicate with Gao Ru Xue?"
"It can only be you," Lee Zheng said firmly. "On the day, she was targeted by the eyes-gouging killer, and we have been through her phone. She had been calling you endlessly that day. I do not know the nature of your relationship, but I am sure it is not that simple. Chen Ge, I hope you'll be able to recognize the good from the bad and hold onto your principles when the situation calls for it."
By then, Chen Ge realized that Lee Zheng had a wrong idea about their relationship. That day, Gao Ru Xue's phone had been taken over by the phone spirit, and she could contact everyone but Chen Ge. Gao Ru Xue had kept calling him that day because she was feeling nervous and unsafe.
"Okay, I'll be heading over now."
From Lee Zheng, Chen Ge found out that Gao Ru Xue had been staying alone at Doctor Gao's practice. She did not want to return to the dormitory to stay with her roommates nor did she want to move back to Xi Xia Hu. Chen Ge arrived at Doctor Gao's practice, and when he got down from the taxi, he realized that the practice was very close to Western Jiujiang Medical University.
There were plain clothes looking after Gao Ru Xue twenty-four hours, and when Chen Ge got out from the car, the man in charge immediately spotted him. While Chen Ge's get up gave the man pause and his gaze settled on the white cat lying on Chen Ge's shoulder for a long time, he decided to follow the superior's order and went over to make contact with Chen Ge. The man gave Chen Ge some updates on Gao Ru Xue's situation, and then he handed him a recording pen before leaving.
He knocked lightly on the door, and after a long time, Gao Ru Xue came to open the door. She did not look like she had rested recently—she looked tired and spiritless. "Chen Ge, what are you doing here?"
"I heard you are not feeling well, so I came to visit you because I was worried." Chen Ge carried the heavy backpack, and he realized how awkward he sounded. To smooth things over, he picked up the white cat and said, "Do you like cats?"
The furry head with the multi-colored eyes turned to look at Chen Ge with confusion. The white cat's 'cute' reaction did make Gao Ru Xue feel a little better. She reached out to rustle the white cat's head and moved back. "I'm doing fine. Please come in. Do you want anything to drink?"
Gao Ru Xue had been trapped alone for quite some time already, and she actually wanted to find someone to talk to, but she did not know who.
"It's fine." Chen Ge followed Gao Ru Xue into Doctor Gao's office. What populated the room were books. There were many different kinds of books, and most of them were limited editions that could not be found online. "Is Doctor Gao really such a heavy reader?"
"Yes, he does not have any other hobbies. Other than reading, he likes to collect some weird art pieces." Gao Ru Xue brew two cups of coffee and placed them on the table.
Chen Ge took a small sip and rambled a bit before he commented offhandedly, "By the way, we have known each other for quite some time already, but I never once heard you call Doctor Gao your father. It feels like you two are quite unfamiliar around each other."
Gao Ru Xue had a private personality. She was not purposely trying to freeze people out, but perhaps she had gone through some experience to make her this way, and the type of experiences that she had been through, that was the thing that Chen Ge was tasked to find out.
After hearing what Chen Ge said, Gao Ru Xue did not answer immediately. She looked at the coffee inside her cup, and after a long time, she finally said the secret that she had hidden in her heart for a long time.
"A few years ago, one of the patients got into an accident in the middle of his session, and his condition suddenly worsened. No one knew whether it was his medication or my father's treatment method. Halfway through his session, the patient went insane and jumped out of the window. At the time, my father hadn't acquired his own practice yet, so he was practicing at home, and our house was on the 8th floor.
"The death of the patient naturally fell on his responsibility. The family hounded us endlessly. We tried to explain, apologize, but they would not accept it. Eventually, we moved, but it was still no use. At the time, my father was under great pressure, but thankfully, he had Mom to give him the support he needed. At the time, I thought it was just a hurdle and everything would be fine after we stepped over it. However, no one knew that the event would have such devastating repercussion.
"The patient's family went to the hospital to block my father. They created such a ruckus, and things were worsening. Worried about my father, my mother called a cab to get to the hospital, but she got into an accident on the way there. No one answered the call. My father did meet Mother at the hospital, but…"
Gao Ru Xue held the cup with both hands. Her voice was very low, and she looked just like an abandoned doll. "It was too late. The rescue was unsuccessful. Mom left us, and my father trapped himself at home for a long period of time after that. It seemed like he had sealed himself off from the world.
"He refused to communicate with the outside world. When I passed his room in the night, I could sometimes even hear him calling my mother's name. From then onward, my father seemed to change into a different person. He started to do weird things like going out at night and coming back smelling of blood and formalin. When they were preparing to bury my mother, he did something unimaginable. He stole her body.
"Only I knew about that. I once asked him about it, but he seemed to transform into a different person. I will never forget how he looked at me then. Despair, sadness, and a madness that was intent on destroying everything.
"About a month after the disappearance of Mother's body, my father slowly returned to normal. His gaze became dark and deep like an ocean that had no limit; all the negative emotions had disappeared within it. He became more mature than before, like there was nothing in this world that was going to stop him.
"Other people assumed that he had walked out from the grief and regained a renewed hope on life, but only I knew that he had only buried those emotions deeper in his heart. The calmer he presented himself, the greater the pain in his heart. From then on, my father rarely appeared at night. He worked in the morning and would leave alone at night. Since then, I learned to live on my own."
Gao Ru Xue had been hiding that in her heart for a long time, and this was the first time that she had shared it with another person. Chen Ge had saved her life in the nick of time, pulling her back from certain death, so she trusted Chen Ge a lot.
"Working in the day, going out at night and still very energetic." Chen Ge felt like Doctor Gao's condition was similar to his. He believed that Doctor Gao had also been influenced by a ghost to become like this. When Gao Ru Xue finished her story, she was tired and curled up on the couch.
Chen Ge did not disturb her; the girl did not seem to have realized that her father had gone missing. After all, her life would go on unchanged. She would survive the night alone since her father would never return at night. Looking at the time, Chen Ge went into the adjacent room to grab a blanket for Gao Ru Xue, then he picked up the white cat and tip-toed out of the place.
After the door clicked shut, Gao Ru Xue, whom Chen Ge assumed was asleep, slowly opened her eyes. She touched the blanket that covered her body and turned to look at the door that was closed.
…
After leaving the practice, Chen Ge walked toward Western Jiujiang Medical University. He needed to enter the underground morgue's central hub before midnight. On the way there, Chen Ge called Lee Zheng to report what he heard about Doctor Gao from Gao Ru Xue. After he hung up, he threw these thoughts out of his mind. He was completely focused on completing this Trial Mission.
The underground morgue was different from other three-star missions. It was perfectly preserved and not destroyed, so Chen Ge could not afford to be careless. He did not enter the university from the front entrance but took a long detour to the western gate. According to the map provided by Zhang Li, the real entrance to the underground morgue was near the western gate. Compared to the other gates, this place was very quiet; there were not even stalls lining the road waiting to do business with students.
Chen Ge looked left and right. After he made sure that no one was looking, he avoided the surveillance camera and hopped into the campus. It is 9 pm now. I still have three hours.
Even though there were street lights around the western part of the university campus, compared to other parts of the campus, this place felt quite deserted. Chen Ge walked through the bushes that lined the road and kept his back to the wall. Following the map that he had memorized, Chen Ge slowly sought his way to the entrance to the underground morgue.
The western part of the campus was the largest part of the campus. There were two lab buildings and several other buildings whose usages were unknown to Chen Ge. However, most of the buildings were sealed shut, and entry was not allowed. Chen Ge continued to move forward, and he came across three security guards who were patrolling the area. They were patrolling very far from Chen Ge. Even with his Yin Yang Vision, Chen Ge could only tell their general frame. Why are the three security guards just going around this small area?
According to the map, there were five entrances that one could use to enter the underground morgue. The three guards were patrolling the front door. When Zhang Li and the renovation team were expanding the morgue, they had used this entrance. Of the four remaining entrances, two were attached to the lab buildings, one was attached to the abandoned education block, and the last one was an emergency entrance. It was probably to prevent an underground emergency, so this entrance should lead outside of the campus.
The security guards had blocked the front entrance, so Chen Ge had no choice but to use other entrance. He walked to the lab building on the left. He pushed the window open and jumped into the room. He only walked a small distance before he saw a glass container that was placed on a shelf. There was something that looked like a human head being soaked within.
I heard from Liu Xianxian that when she was following Liu Zhe, she discovered the man talking to a human head inside a glass bottle inside one of the labs.

Liu Xianxian had once caught Liu Zhe in this room talking to the detached head in the glass jar.
How suspicious. Chen Ge turned on the flashlight function, and the light hit the glass jar. Even after so many years, the human head in the jar still looked very much alive.
It's quite scary seeing these things at night. Chen Ge stared at the jar for a long time. The head seemed to be suspended in liquid and completely immobile. It did not wink or move, different from what Liu Xianxian described. To be safe, Chen Ge summoned Ol' Zhou's group to inspect the jar, but they discovered nothing weird.
The thing that possessed it has probably left already. Chen Ge was deep in thought, staring at the jar. The fact that Liu Zhe would talk with the human head suggested that there was something here that could possess these samples and communicate via these things that were suspended in jars.
If that was true, then things might be shaky. The whole western part of the campus was under the enemy's surveillance. There were so many organ parts in the underground morgue and labs, and any one of them could be silently watching him. I need to stay away from these things as much as possible.
Chen Ge placed the white cat in his backpack and walked out from the room. There was a ten-meter-long corridor, and the doors on both sides were locked. There were a few doors that even had the yellow police tape. He looked in through the windows on the doors, and rows of lab tables were placed in the rooms. His pupils narrowing, Chen Ge saw something that looked like water stain left on the experiment slab that was at the front of the room. It felt like something had just crawled up from that slab.
The entrance is not here. If not for the mission and the time limit, Chen Ge would have liked to visit every room. The lab is a good scenario—the atmosphere here is not bad. I should try to build something similar at the park.
The reason Director Luo had taken down the surrounding attractions was to prepare for the Haunted House's expansion. To build a terror theme park, an underground parking lot was not enough.
He walked to the end of the corridor, and Chen Ge realized that one of the autopsy rooms was not locked. The door had been left half-open, and the seal was broken. There is no dust on the door handle—someone has been through here recently.
Chen Ge squatted down and noticed the friction and scratch marks on the ground. Chen Ge tried to push the door. The door was slightly twisted, and one had to hold the door upwards when they pushed to make sure no scratch marks would be left on the ground. Looks like the person was in a hurry when they used this door, so they did not notice these details.
As the door swung open, the stench of formalin hit Chen Ge. Chen Ge did not hurry to get into the room as that he knew whenever he could smell formalin, those things were nearby. Chen Ge placed the white cat on the table and touched its head. "Can you tell where this smell is coming from?"
Chen Ge tried to use his gestures to make the cat understand his meaning. The multi-colored eyes looked at Chen Ge, and after a while, the cat suddenly jumped down from the table and walked toward a single room at the back of the autopsy room.
"Found it?" There was another wooden door inside the room, and the cat snarled at the door. The formalin drifted out from behind the door. Chen Ge tried to push it and realized that it was locked.
"Move back a bit." Chen Ge raised the hammer, and the cat jumped back.
BANG!
The hammer aimed at the lock, and the key cylinder cracked. Chen Ge had gotten far more familiar with how to break down a locked door. He only needed to focus on the lock—compared to knocking down the whole door, that would create a smaller commotion.
There was a dark corridor behind the wooden door. Based on the map provided by Zhang Li, this was one of the entrances that led to the underground morgue. The corridor would lead Chen Ge to the outer perimeter of the morgue. Placing the cat back in his backpack, Chen Ge raised his flashlight into the darkness. He only glanced inward when he frowned. There was broken glass on the stairs and some indeterminate objects like someone had broken glass jars with organ samples there.
The three guards at the front door will probably come to check on the noise soon. I should hurry.
Chen Ge did not want to waste time, but when he turned to close the door, his gaze was attracted by something else. The back of the wooden door was filled with nail marks. It looked scary. Something was trying to get out.
There were so many nail marks that Chen Ge could not tell whether they came from one thing or multiple. Chen Ge snapped a few pictures on his phone and went down the steps, being careful not to step on any of the detritus.
Soon, he reached the underground level, and there was a split in the road. The corridor on the left was unpainted, and the one on the right was painted white. When he walked closer, Chen Ge saw some words painted on the wall—they were squiggly like worms, barely readable. The left corridor was called a human walkway, and the one on the right was called the cadaver walkway.
The handwriting is about two meters high, so the writer should be an adult, but this handwriting looks like a child's handwriting. Chen Ge took out his phone to glance at the map.
If he wanted to get to the underground morgue, he had to take the white corridor. For the sake of the mission, Chen Ge walked down the cadaver walkway. Perhaps it was his imagination, but once he entered the corridor, it felt like someone was moving in front of him. He tried to pick up the speed, and the person did as well; he slowed down, and so did the person.
He walked for half a minute when there were red letters surfacing on the white walls.
"You're on the wrong path. This is a road for dead people only."
"I'm warning you—turn back now."
"Why are you so stubborn?"
"I know, you also want to be a cadaver, don't you?"
Chen Ge did not care what they said. He was more curious about the words' location. Some of them were on the wall, and some were on the ceiling. Chen Ge looked at them for a long time, and he realized that to create this effect, the person had to be crawling on the surfaces.
Could it be a lizard?
He stopped, and the person before him stopped.
The corridor became so quiet.
All three-star scenarios have their own unique ghosts. I wonder what kind of monsters the underground morgue has. Chen Ge placed the cat on the ground. When he started moving, so did the person before him. Hearing this echo, we're about twenty meters away from each other. The person is just around that corner.

Could he be the one who left these blood letters?
Chen Ge decided to ask the person directly. He held the hammer and took out the recorder from his backpack. When he pressed the power button, the person before him suddenly disappeared. Only Chen Ge's footsteps echoed in the corridor. He turned the corner and a sentence was left on the white wall—You'll regret this!
Is that a threat?
There was nothing else on the wall other than the ugly handwriting. Chen Ge slowly put the recorder away.
Now is not the time to get hung up over these things. The crucial thing is to get to the morgue's central hub within the time limit.
Chen Ge knew very well, for a three-star scenario, the real terror started after midnight. Chen Ge walked down the white corridor, and he found more strange things. There were water stains on the painted walls, and it was unclear where the water came from. If one looked closer, one could find human hair on the ground—some were long and others short. Chen Ge picked one up, and it smelled faintly of formalin. The smell had soaked into the hair, not something that had been slathered on.
Other than that, the most confusing thing for Chen Ge was definitely the blood letters on the wall; the person seemed to understand that the white corridor was specifically for transporting cadavers only, and they kept warning outsiders of that fact. Are these letters used to warn the medical students?
The staff and students would use this corridor to enter the morgue to retrieve cadavers. The words felt like they had been written by cadavers, as they carried warning, threat, and a hint of hopeless compromise. Chen Ge could see new letters appearing every few steps, and the handwriting got worse like something happened to the author's wrist or hands. At some points, the handwriting stopped halfway like the brush had fallen out of the writer's hand.
These sure are strange.
Until now, Chen Ge had no idea what kind of monsters were hiding inside the underground morgue. The mission was just starting, and he still had many places to explore. The white corridors had slopes to them, and when Chen Ge reached the end, he was already at the second underground floor or the outer perimeter of the morgue.
This is simpler than I thought.
Perhaps due to Xu Yin's appearance earlier, everything went smoothly. Chen Ge only got a taste of danger; there was nothing really threatening. The end of the corridor was another split. One was unpainted, but it looked dark and creepy; the other corridor was still painted white, and there were signs of drag marks on the ground from the trolleys.
These should have been left behind by the staff when they moved the bodies.
There were carts specialized for moving dead bodies in the morgue. They looked light and convenient, which intrigued Chen Ge.
The trolleys made by Uncle Xu are a bit too rough around the edges. After the underground morgue has been unlocked, perhaps I can use these to transport the fainted visitors.
Being moved out of a morgue in a cart used to transport dead bodies, that would be a unique experience.
Taking out his phone, Chen Ge referred to the map. He was at the edge of the morgue and would reach the outer perimeter if he followed the white corridor. About seven meters down the path, there were three small morgues and a medium-sized morgue; beyond that, it was unknown. Chen Ge looked at all the map, but he could not find any more information. Brandishing his hammer, Chen Ge walked to the first small morgue. The steel door was not locked, and the door did not have any dust. The morgue had recently been accessed.
Should I go in to take a look?
Chen Ge had come up with a plan before he arrived. He planned to leave no rock unturned—that way, it would be safer on his way back. In this type of underground situation, the most dangerous thing was being cornered. The door creaked noisily, and there were four body freezers in the room.
The freezers were working normally and had notices saying things like 'please do not touch without permission'. The room was small. Chen Ge walked around the room with the cat, and the cat showed no visible response. Exiting the morgue, Chen Ge entered the other few small morgues, and they were all fine.
The marks on the floor stop at the medium sized morgue. Looks like the staff from the school will not go further than this. Chen Ge tried the door of the medium-sized morgue, and he realized that it was not locked. There's a no entry sign on the door, but the door isn't locked. Is this a slip-up by the staff, or did someone open the door after the staff left?
Chen Ge pulled the door open a sliver and glanced into the room. Other than the freezers, there were a few metal tables along the corner. When his eyes caught the tables, Chen Ge's gaze changed. The few tables were joined together, and there was something human-like lying on it.
It was both humanlike and not human—the thing had a human shape, but its four limbs were all twisted at impossible angles. The white cat elicited a soft growl, and Chen Ge slowly moved along the wall. He walked past the row of freezers, and they were not shut. The cooling air covered Chen Ge, and he shivered. Are these freezers filled with bodies?
Chen Ge moved away from the freezers, and when he got close to the table, he saw that it was a human plastic model that was picked apart which was on the table. It was probably a teaching aid in class, but it was abandoned there. The stomach was cracked open, and all the organs were arranged on the side neatly. This was fine, but the model's eyes were open, and they looked so real, like a human's eyes had been sewn into the model. There was a desire in that pair of beautiful eyes. Following his gaze, next to the model's head was a rotten apple.
The rotten apple with the bruised, splotchy skin was a contrast to the shiny model. It was a work of art in a way. Chen Ge stood next to the table and was about to lean closer to take a look when there was a weird sound coming from the outside corridor. It sounded like mud falling from great height.
Something is coming?
Chen Ge did not have time to look. He took out the hammer and hid behind the door. He turned off the flashlight on his phone and used his Yin Yang Vision to focus on the white corridor outside.

The sound of mud flopping on the ground approached. Chen Ge leaned against the wall next to the door and raised the hammer in his hands. There was a flash of light in the dark, and then a white shadow walked out from the corridor painted white. The man was wearing a white coat and a thick mask. There was a flashlight squeezed under his armpit, and both of his arms were carrying two large red-colored buckets.
He moved very fast, and the content of the buckets, which looked sticky, kept getting splashed out from the bucket. As he walked near, the pungent smell hit Chen Ge. It was more than pure formalin; there was a worse stench mixed within. That… looks like a living human.
Chen Ge did not put down the hammer and kept his eyes trained on the man.
University staff? But why would he come down to the underground morgue at 10 pm?
The man's coat was too small for his muscular frame. He was clearly powerful—even though he was carrying two large buckets, he was moving quite fast.
What is the man doing? Why is he going deeper into the underground morgue?
The man was suspicious. He looked like a member of staff, but the thing that he was doing and his time of appearance confused Chen Ge. Chen Ge thought about it and gave up on speculating. He knew too little and decided to approach this in the most direct way. If he enters this room, I'll have a talk with him, but if he doesn't, I'll trail behind him and temporarily not spook him.
Perhaps due to his personality, Chen Ge rarely forced others—he gave the man a choice so that way, even if he accidentally injured the man, he would feel better. Gripping the hammer, Chen Ge held his breath. The footsteps neared, and the content of the buckets kept splashing out. The man frowned like he was not in a good mood. He continued walking ahead. When he walked past the medium-sized morgue that Chen Ge was in, he looked toward it and realized that the door had been pushed open.
"Didn't I close this door earlier? Who opened this? Is Li Jiu also in here?" The deep male voice drifted out from behind the mask. He stopped to look around and cursed. The man was in a bad mood. He put down the buckets, and the hands that were covered by plastic gloves headed for the doorknob. Just as his fingers were about to grab the doorknob, another man's voice came from the other end of the corridor.
"Brother Wei! Are you done yet? Why are you taking so long today?" A man who was thin and short, with tanned skin ran out holding a flashlight.
"There was a bit too much that needed cleaning today." The man who was called Brother Wei did not enter the room. He pulled his hands back and turned to look at the skinny man with a frown. "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to go distract the guards? If they walk in here and see us, this will be so hard to explain."
"Don't you worry about that. Those guards are as cowardly as mice; they will never come in here." Li Jiu looked into the medium-sized morgue. When he noticed that nothing was out of place, he turned his head back. He lowered his voice and moved to Brother Wei. "In any case, we'd better not finish this as fast as we can. When the guards were chatting, I overheard some things."
"What did they say?"
"This morgue is haunted," Li Jiu said in a creepy voice.
"Haunted? You believe in something like that?" Brother Wei placed the red bucket before Li Jiu. "Stop wasting time. Since you're here, help me with these things. They look so disgusting."
When Li Jiu saw Brother Wei did not believe him, he added, "Not only the security, even the students who are seniors at this school know that this place is haunted. Brother Wei, think about it, when we are normally tasked with dealing with the cadavers at a medical school, they prepare everything beforehand, and we only needed to transport them into the cars, but this school would rather pay us double the price but refuse to come in here to deal with things themselves. This is definitely suspicious!"
"As long as we're getting paid, everything is fine. What is scarier than poverty?" Brother Wei grabbed the red bucket and walked deeper into the corridor. The bucket was practically overflowing, so once he moved slightly faster, the content would splash out.
"But I'm not wearing any gloves!" Li Jiu cried. Brother Wei ignored him, so without any other option, he picked up the bucket that was left for him with both hands and chased after Brother Wei.
After the two walked away, Chen Ge came out from the room. He looked at the sticky liquid on the ground, but he too could not identify it. "This is perfect. They'll help me scout ahead. If there's danger, I'll go and help them."
Chen Ge was about to leave the room when the white cat on his backpack cried. Chen Ge turned to look and saw that the human model had turned its head. It had originally been looking at the rotten apple, but it was now looking right at Chen Ge.
The apple should represent life, and since the model was looking at the apple, it should desire life. Now that the thing is looking at me, does it mean that it's planning to take over my body?
If not for the warning from the white cat, Chen Ge would not have noticed this.
Being stared by a model from the back, that is quite scary.
Without hesitation, Chen Ge walked to the model and had a staring contest with it. After a while, he gripped the model's head with both hands and twisted it off.
"Since you like to look at me so much then, I'll grant you the pleasure of watching me clear this mission."
Chen Ge placed the head inside his backpack, putting it next to the comic and recorder.
The footsteps in the corridor faded away. Afraid that he might lose them, Chen Ge hurried to catch up. The white corridors looked rather scary. Chen Ge walked past a few more morgues, and the deeper he ventured into the morgue, the more confused he became. "Zhang Li said that there were seven morgues at the outer perimeter, and if we move any further, we would reach the middle section of the morgue, but that zone is supposed to be banned from any entry."
The temperature was so low that it felt like all the freezers had been swung open, and the chill seeped out from the walls and floor tiles. The two that walked ahead also felt that something was wrong. They slowed down, and Chen Ge made use of this opportunity to catch up to them. There were only several meters between them. Chen Ge hid in the corner and focused on them using his Yin Yang Vision.
"Brother Wei, can't you help carry this? The thing in the bucket just hit my hands." Li Jiu put the bucket down and flashed the light on his hands. There were red spots surfacing on his palm that looked like insect bites. "They don't feel like anything, but they do look scary."
"You sure know how to create problems. Those are chemical baths. You'll be fine after washing it away." Brother Wei handed his flashlight to Li Jiu to have him shine the way, and he picked up the two large buckets.

"You're trying to blame this on me? If not for you forcing me to carry the bucket, this would not have happened," Li Jiu complained. He tried to wipe his hand on his shirt, but it did not have much effect. If anything, the red dots only got deeper in color.
"Stop wasting time. Come over and help. We'll leave after we're done. Why is this blasted place so cold?" Brother Wei walked ahead and held the buckets as he walked down the corridor following the map in his memory. They would pass a door that led to a morgue every few meters along the white corridor, and the number would be painted on the door. The two walked past Morgue No. 6 and then 7. Just as they were continuing to move forward, Li Jiu suddenly pulled on Brother Wei's shirt.
"What is it this time?" Brother Wei glared at Li Jiu with impatience. Standing where he was, Li Jiu flashed the flashlight at the door next to Morgue No. 7.
"When we entered this place earlier, there is a wall next to Morgue No. 7, right?"
"I can't really remember, why?" Brother Wei's voice sounded pressed because it came out from behind the mask.
"Look at this. Why is there another morgue next to Morgue No. 7? Is it a new addition?" Li Jiu did not dare move forward anymore. "There is such a thick layer of dust on the doorknob, so this must have been built some time ago. How come I have no memory of it?"
"Stop scaring yourself. You probably remember the wrong details." Brother Wei walked past Morgue No. 7 and stopped before the extra morgue. The morgue's door looked the same as the doors that preceded it. The unclear number was the only difference, like someone had scratched it out with nails.
"Shall we go in to take a look?" Brother Wei searched his mind, and he did remember that Morgue No. 7 was supposed to be the last morgue.
"If you want to go, you need to go in alone. I don't dare." Li Jiu shook his head as he held the flashlight.
"Why are you so easily scared? We probably handle even more dead bodies at the crematorium every day than what's down here, so why are you acting like this?" Brother Wei said that, but in reality, his heart was shaking as well. He skipped over this topic and picked up his pace as he ran past the extra morgue.
"Wait for me!" Li Jiu chased after Brother Wei, and something unexpected happened. The distance between Brother Wei and Li Jiu increased. Just as Li Jiu was about to run past the morgue, the steel door of the morgue opened on its own. It was very sudden, like someone from within had pushed it open.
Li Jiu was already shaking in his boots. The sudden movement of the door scared him, and he yelped in fear. Hearing that, Brother Wei stopped and turned to look. When he saw that the door was open, his face blanched. "Why did you go and open the door? If you have time to go sight-seeing, why don't you come over to help me?"
Brother Wei lectured Li Jiu, but the latter was feeling wronged as well. "The door opened on its own; I didn't even touch it."
He glanced into the room, and the moment he did, his body froze with his eyes locked in a certain direction.
"What's wrong with you now?" Brother Wei had been partners with Li Jiu for years already. He knew his colleague well; he was not someone who was into pranks. He put down the buckets and walked to stand beside Li Jiu and look into the morgue.
In a glass tube not far from the door was a body soaked in liquid, and the scariest thing was that the body's eyes were open.
"Brother Wei, how come it feels like it's watching us?" Li Jiu kept his voice low. Whenever he opened his lips, it felt like cold air was running into his lips.
"Let's go and take a look." Brother Wei grabbed Li Jiu by his shoulders, and two of them entered the morgue. The morgue looked more like a display room. There was a plaque on the wall. It said, 'Every donor deserves to be respected, and that respect should exist at all times.'
The plaque was pasted on the wall, but Brother Wei and Li Jiu's attention was completely captured by the body with the eyes open. They did not notice the words on the wall. The two moved slowly into the room and stopped next to the dead body.
"Liu Zhengyi?" There was a short introduction on the bottom of the tube. The body's name was Liu Zhengyi, a graduate at Western Jiujiang Medical University who had stayed as a lecturer after his graduation. The man was a morally-upright man. The introduction said that on the day that he became a teacher, he had already decided to donate his body to the school after his death.
Once upon a time, a student had been joking with the cadaver's looks in class, and he had scolded the student severely. He looked so young in the tube, and the introduction did not mention his cause of death.
"The preservation is so well done; it looks like a real person." Brother Wei reached out to tap on the glass tube. The body inside did not respond.
"What are you doing? What if you really wake him up?" The red dots had already spread from Li Jiu's arm, but he did not notice it. He yanked Brother Wei to the side. "Those security guards said that the underground morgue is haunted, and their own people refuse to come down here. Let's leave immediately and not take any work from this school ever again."
"Let's finish this contract first." Brother Wei flung Li Jiu's hand off. He looked to the side. There were other glass tubes in the room next to Liu Zhengyi, and each of them had a cadaver inside it. There was a kind-looking old man. He looked peaceful and had the presence of a university professor. There was a muscular teen of about twenty. His eyes were closed, and there was a bright smile on his face like he was having a sweet dream. Brother Wei's eyes scanned all the glass tubes, and when he saw the tube behind the door, he was startled.
The tube was empty. The weirdest thing about it was the cover at the top of the tube, which was open like something inside had just crawled out from it. The two sidled close to the tube and shone the flashlight on it. Then they discovered something even weirder. The top of the tube reeked of formalin, and there were two wet hand prints on the cover. Brother Wei and Li Jiu shared a look, and they both panicked.
"The thing inside the tube has crawled out?"
"Don't panic." Brother Wei looked around the tube. "If something did crawl out, it would have left more than two handprints, but there aren't any more handprints or footprints."
Li Jiu looked around with the flashlight, and he realized that Brother Wei was right. "Then how do you explain the two handprints?"
"No idea but we should leave immediately." This was second floor underground, and they were surrounded by darkness. The darkness was so thick that it felt like it could not be banished by the light from the flashlight. As Brother Wei was retreating, he turned and walked out with Li Jiu.
"I'll go deal with the stuff inside the buckets. You stay here and wait for me."
"Okay, come back quickly."
Brother Wei and Li Jiu left the room, and neither of them discovered that there was a cupboard behind the glass tube whose gaps were continuously leaking formalin.
