Chen Ge's movements were too fast. Three people surrounded him. One moment they were still talking peacefully, and the next moment someone had fallen to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, three people became two, and the remaining two were all injured.

Dr. Li and Datou were originally standing on both sides. After seeing Qu Ying being knocked down, they subconsciously moved closer to each other and stood together.

The two men held sharp knives, and the distorted expressions on their faces slowly solidified.

Their eyes wandered between the knife and the skull crusher. Judging from the professionalism alone, the man in front of them seemed more like a hopeless lunatic, while the two of them could only be considered patients with mental problems.

They are both perverts, but there are essential differences between them. Even in movies, it is rare to see a character carrying such a hideous hammer.

"You are tired too, take a good rest, and don't do bad things in your next life."

Chen Ge dragged the skull crusher towards Doctor Li and Datou. The two men's eyelids were twitching. They looked at the thick blood stains on the skull crusher and their faces looked extremely bad.

Chen Ge had been blocking the door. Datou and Dr. Li knew that the other party had no intention of letting them go, and they had to fight to the death to have a chance of survival.

They had always thought they had the upper hand, until now they suddenly woke up and realized that it was not Chen Ge who fell into the trap step by step, but themselves.

Chen Ge's pupils shrank, and without further ado, he rushed towards Doctor Li with the skull crusher.

Datou had a wound on his stomach and couldn't run fast. Even if he escaped alone, Chen Ge was confident that he could catch up with him. So Chen Ge had a clear target and directly locked onto Doctor Li.

Doctor Li, with a distorted face and insane mind, held the knife in his hand. He had never encountered such a thing before. Normally, Chen Ge's current position should belong to him.

“Bang!”

Doctor Li fought back with all his might, but the sharp knife in his hand didn't even have a chance to touch Chen Ge.

The nearly one-meter-long skull-crushing hammer is very flexible in Chen Ge's hands. He is really skilled at it.

Doctor Li and Datou fell down one after another. Chen Ge did not let go of Qu Ying's girlfriend. He tied up the people who had lost their ability to move with the electric wires in the house, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

He dragged the skull crusher with one hand, his chest rising and falling slightly: "My physical strength has indeed declined a lot. I have been conserving my energy all the way. I didn't expect that I would be so tired after just swinging the skull crusher a few times."

Walking between Dr. Li and Datou, Chen Ge looked at the frightened Wen Qing and Xiao Sun: "What I just said was a lie to them. I am also afraid of facing such a vicious and perverted criminal, so I can only be a little more aggressive, so that I can overwhelm the other party with momentum."

Dragging the skull crusher covered with clothing fragments and blood, Chen Ge's expression was very natural, as if he had just done something insignificant.

"I understand what you mean, but how do you explain this thing in your hand? Has it been in your backpack all the time?" Xiao Sun's voice was trembling. He felt like he had just escaped from a wolf's den and fell into a tiger's den. His situation was worrying.

"You mean this hammer?" Chen Ge wiped the blood off with the murderer's clothes: "Although it looks fierce, it's actually just a prop in the haunted house."

"Haunted house props? I don't think even ghosts would believe you. What kind of haunted house would use this as a prop?"

"It's the horror house in New Century Paradise in the western suburbs of Hanjiang." Chen Ge wiped the blood off the skull crusher and walked to Wen Qing. It didn't matter whether Xiao Sun believed what he said or not. The key was Wen Qing: "I should have told you before."

"Yes, but it's not what I imagined." Wen Qing opened her eyes wide. She had always thought that Chen Ge was a well-mannered man, and should be a highly intelligent person who made a living with his brain. It was not until the sound of Qu Ying's bones breaking rang out that she realized how wrong she was.

It took less than a minute for Chen Ge to take out the skull crusher and for the three residents in the building to fall to the ground. It was so fast that Wen Qing hadn't even figured out what expression to use to face Chen Ge.

"There is always a difference between imagination and reality. Don't worry about the details. You just need to know that I won't harm you and I want to bring Xiang Nuan back to reality." Chen Ge gave Wen Qing a reassuring smile. He had a special charm that made people feel particularly reliable at all times.

"You entered that door with me, and I got you into trouble. I was a little scared just now, but don't worry, I will definitely trust you 100%. Without you, let alone looking for Xiang Nuan, I might have been killed by these people a long time ago." Wen Qing calmed down. She knew very well that in this world behind the door, Chen Ge was the most trustworthy person.

"What's going on between you two? I don't think you are like siblings. Are you pursuing her?" Xiao Sun's eyes lingered on Chen Ge and Wen Qing. After hearing his words, Wen Qing quickly began to explain again. Chen Ge turned around and looked at his own shadow. He looked at it for more than a minute, then took out Zhang Ya's diary. There was nothing new on it.

"Did I guess it right? It turns out you are not siblings, but an sister-brother relationship?" Xiao Sun felt that he had analyzed the truth again.

"Can't I just live a good life?" Chen Ge put the diary back into the backpack compartment. He felt that there was a reason why Xiao Sun disappeared in reality. "From now on, you'd better stop talking nonsense. We are a team. If you cause trouble beyond my ability, I will not care about you."

Chen Ge had a good talk with Xiao Sun with the skull crusher. He also knew all of Xiao Sun's secrets. The main reason why this college student moved into Jinhua Community was because he was poor.

He was exploited by the landlord and thought he got a great deal. In fact, the landlord treated him as a prey from the very beginning. The rent he paid was not money, but his life.

Xiao Sun's story gave Chen Ge a lot of inspiration. An idea came to his mind. If he could go back alive this time, he could let tourists experience what Xiao Sun had gone through and see how long they could hold on.

After walking out of room 1001, Chen Ge looked back at the TV in the living room and thought about Xiang Nuan on the screen.

The child seemed to say one word to the people behind the door at that time - go.

"He might have said that to Wen Qing."

After closing the security door, Chen Ge took the keys he had searched from Dr. Li and Datou, and walked downstairs with Wen Qing, Xiao Sun and Granny Li.

Blood was flowing in the corridor, and doors were violently pried open. These doors were not the ones Chen Ge was looking for, but behind them lay the same ugliness and despair.

When a person walks to the edge of the abyss, just a slight push may make him unable to turn back.

As for what pushed him, it might be an inadvertent detail in life, a word from a stranger, or his own past memory.

Chen Ge used the key to open the door of Dr. Li's house, and found a large number of human bone specimens inside, as well as the key left by the landlord and several bottles of medicine of unknown effect.

"I can finally leave."

Before leaving, Chen Ge turned to the door of Aunt Ding's room again, gave Aunt Ding the same treatment as Dr. Li, and saved the child in Aunt Ding's home.

Under Aunt Ding's torture, the child became mentally ill and only knew that his name was Jiafu.

Chen Ge found a family photo on him, and the scene in the photo was chilling.

Aunt Ding and Jiafu, grinning from ear to ear, stood in the middle of the photo. Beside them were wooden boxes with photos and names written on them - Jiale, Jiaan, Jiamei...

Jiafu's legs were amputated and he couldn't leave with Chen Ge. Wen Qing and Xiao Sun had a disagreement on how to deal with Jiafu.

Xiao Sun wanted to leave with Jiafu on his back, but Wen Qing thought they should find Xiang Nuan first and then come back. After all, Jiafu couldn't walk by himself, and it would be inconvenient to take him along.

In the end, it was Chen Ge who made the final decision. He decided to send the family portrait to Mr. Huang on the first floor first.

Walking down the stairs, Chen Ge went to 301 on purpose after reaching the third floor. The child named Wu You was sitting in the living room, looking at the paintings posted on the windows.

"Come with us, I'll take you to find your parents." There were few good people in the whole building. Even Chen Ge found it incredible that Wu You could survive in such an environment, so he wanted to take Wu You with him so that they could take care of each other.

"I won't go with you." What Chen Ge didn't expect was that Wu You decisively rejected him.

"Why? Haven't you always wanted to see your father and mother?" Chen Ge was a little curious. For children, as long as they come up with the reason of helping to find their parents, few people will refuse.

"Because the last words my father and mother said to me on the day they passed away were, no matter what, don't leave this home, they will come back, and anyone who wants to come to me under the pretext of looking for them must be lying to me." Wu You raised his head: "You are lying to me? Right?"

Chen Ge did not speak, he heard deeper meaning from Wu You's words.

Wu You's parents might have known that they were going to die when they walked out of the house, so they said that. No one in this world could find them.

"There is food on the tenth floor. The building is much safer now. If you run into trouble, you can go to the old man on the first floor." Chen Ge touched Wu You's head. This child is very smart: "Your parents are right. They will come back. Before they come back, you have to take care of yourself."

Chen Ge turned and left. When he was about to reach the second floor, Wu You's voice suddenly came from the corridor.

"Hello!"

"What's wrong?"

"I want to tell you something." Wu You lay at the door of the room, his eyes looking at Wen Qing: "Xiang Nuan is lost, he seems to be waiting for his family to find him."

"What?"

The door of 301, which had never been closed, was closed by Wu You, and there was no other sound in the corridor.

"Does that child know something?" Wen Qing was a little excited.

"Maybe he and Xiang Nuan are friends?" Xiao Sun, carrying the family photo on his back, instinctively began to speculate.

"Wait for me here for a moment." Chen Ge carried his backpack and walked back to the third floor.

"What are you going to do!"

"Why don't you just open the door and ask? Why is a six or seven-year-old kid trying to be mysterious to me? I hate people who only speak half the words."

"He's just a six or seven-year-old kid!"

Ten seconds later, Wu You saw Chen Ge again. He was very surprised.

After repeated inquiries, Chen Ge finally got the information he wanted.

The electrician was the first person in the building to discover the landlord's secret. He discovered it because Xiang Nuan stuffed a videotape stolen from the landlord's house into his mailbox.

Xiang Nuan left the building that night, but before leaving, Wu You saw Xiang Nuan go to the rooftop.

After thanking Wu You, Chen Ge picked up his backpack and called Wen Qing along, and they ran to the roof together.

“This is it.”

The iron door leading to the rooftop on the tenth floor was locked. Chen Ge searched for a long time among a pile of keys before he found the corresponding key.

"Stay away from me. Once the door is opened, the black fog outside might rush in. There are monsters hiding in the fog."

After Wen Qing left, Chen Ge opened the iron door a crack.

The black fog outside was not as thick, but the stench in the fog had not changed at all.

Taking out the skull crusher, Chen Ge slowly opened the iron door. When he saw the complete world outside, his eyes slowly widened.

Building A in Jinhua Community is the tallest building here. Standing on the rooftop you can overlook the entire community.

Endless black fog enveloped the twisted building, just like a black ocean, and the twisted Jinhua Community and Jiuhong Community looked like isolated islands floating in the black ocean.

A huge shadow flashed vaguely in the black fog. Chen Ge's Adam's apple rolled, and his hands holding the skull crusher were soaked with sweat.

“Is this the world behind the door?”

The world behind Xiang Nuan's door was different from any door Chen Ge had entered before. It was not shrouded in blood, but instead was wrapped in this black fog.

Using Yin Pupil, Chen Ge looked at the shadows looming in the black fog. He suddenly remembered an incident that happened when he was doing the nightmare mission in Jiangyuan Community.

At that time, he went to the top of the building with his eyes blindfolded, and heard his own voice from twenty years ago.

When he was about to be killed by the doctor, the young boy said one thing - he wanted to open doors in the bloody city and draw windows on the black ocean.

"The bloody city refers to that city, and the black ocean could be referring to this endless black fog?"

Looking up at the dark sky, compared to the huge shadow in the black fog, Chen Ge felt so small.

"Xiang Nuan went to the roof when she left. If Wu You didn't mean to hurt me, there should be a message left by Xiang Nuan here."

Chen Ge knew that there were terrible monsters hidden in the black fog. The middle-aged man on the third floor was killed instantly in the black fog.

"I can't miss this clue. Now that I've entered this door, I will come into contact with the black fog sooner or later..." Taking a deep breath, Chen Ge put on his backpack, took the skull crusher, and stepped into the black fog step by step.

Using Yin Pupil, Chen Ge began to search on the rooftop. Not long after he walked out, he saw a badly damaged clay sculpture.

This clay sculpture was crudely made and was very similar to the clay sculptures Chen Ge had seen in real life, except that this one had no head. It looked as if someone had repeatedly smashed it, and finally the head of the clay sculpture had been smashed off.

Chen Ge's gaze moved to the chest of the clay sculpture, where two words were written - Xiang Nuan.

"Is this Xiang Nuan's clay sculpture? Why is his clay sculpture in the world behind the door? Did he break the clay sculpture himself?"

Questions popped up in Chen Ge's mind one after another. Before he had time to think, he suddenly heard a creepy cry in his ears.

"Is it the monster in the black fog?" Not daring to stay any longer, Chen Ge took the clay sculpture and immediately started to rush back.
