Freed from its restraints, the white shadow retreated backwards at a very fast speed.

“Don’t run!”

It was a rare opportunity, how could Chen Ge just watch it slip away? He rushed towards the white shadow with a knife in hand.

Without the woman's control, the white shadow's aura became weaker and weaker, its face became more blurred, and its body gradually became transparent.

The monster felt threatened, so it scurried over to the black suitcase, rolled something up from inside, and ran out.

Chen Ge didn't see clearly what Bai Ying took. He just felt that since the two sides were in an antagonistic relationship, he must keep what Bai Ying wanted to take away.

The butcher knife only caused limited damage to Bai Ying. Chen Ge was very decisive and aimed his attack at the thing that Bai Ying took away.

He seized the opportunity and slashed with his knife, and when Bai Ying dodged, he grabbed the thing in Bai Ying's hand.

During the struggle, the thing was torn apart, and half a page of white paper fell to the ground. Bai Ying didn't even bother to pick it up and hurried out of the living room.

Chen Ge chased directly to the door. There was nothing in the dark corridor. He thought rationally that since the tape ghost was not with him, he might not be a match for Bai Ying.

Instead of chasing after him, Chen Ge closed the security door and turned on the light in the living room. The scene in the room made his eyelids twitch wildly.

On the cold floor, the woman's limbs were twisted into strange shapes, her eyes bulged outward, and she screamed loudly, but her bald face showed an expression that Chen Ge could not understand.

It feels like pain, but also like relief, and a hint of joy.

"Does it hurt?"

How to deal with the crazy woman is the tape ghost's business. Chen Ge's task is only to find this woman and help the tape ghost fulfill his wish.

He turned around and picked up the half page of white paper that had fallen on the ground.

It looked like an advertising leaflet. The half describing the specific content was taken away by the white shadow. The half page that Chen Ge got only had four red words and a short introduction.

"The Ghost Story Association? Tell a true ghost story every week?"

This half-page advertising leaflet caught Chen Ge's attention, not only because Bai Ying was going to take it away in the end, but more importantly, the background of the picture on the leaflet was a half-open blood-red door!

"About the world behind the door?"

The flyer belonged to the crazy woman in Ward No. 2, and she had entered the door of Ward No. 3.

"Could it be that it was created by those escaped mental patients? What's the point of telling a weird story every week?" Looking at the rough advertising leaflet and the incomprehensible introduction, Chen Ge felt that even the fraudulent advertisements on telephone poles that offered a large sum of money to have a child were much more thoughtful than this one.

"We have to tell real ghost stories, so what if we make up some fake stories? How can they distinguish true from false?" Chen Ge put away half a page of the advertisement, thinking that if he told his experiences during this period, it would probably scare many people. Of course, this is only limited to humans. Chen Ge is very self-aware. He knows that if the audience are all ghosts, then it is not certain who will scare whom.

The screams in the house slowly stopped, replaced by a mechanically repetitive woman's voice.

“It hurts…”

"The woman was put into the tape?" Chen Ge walked to the woman. Her eyes were dull and colorless, as if her soul had been sucked out.

He didn't know what the Tape Ghost had done to the crazy woman; that was the Tape Ghost's own business.

Putting the crazy woman on the sofa, Chen Ge turned off the recorder. As he pressed the switch, the black cell phone vibrated slightly.

Slide the screen and a new message appears.

"You have successfully fulfilled Xu Yin's wish. His impression of you has changed greatly. Do you want to hire Xu Yin as a member of the House of Horrors?"

"Has the favorability mission been completed?" The tape ghost is much stronger than the pen fairy, but thinking back to the mission of hiring the pen fairy, this mission was already very thrilling.

"Do you want to hire Xu Yin? If you don't make a choice within 24 hours, it will be considered as giving up automatically."

"Yes!" Chen Ge clicked the screen. The excitement in his heart was difficult for normal people to understand.

"Lucky ghost patron, congratulations on successfully hiring a special kind of ghost - Xu Yin."

"Xu Yin (evil spirit): He has a very unique voice (can temporarily control the residual thoughts and interfere with other evil spirits, but is ineffective against red-clothed ghosts and can only be used once a week)."

"Note: Tourists' screams will excite Xu Yin. Feeding on tourists' fear will make Xu Yin's abilities stronger. If Xu Yin is depressed for a long time, he may leave you."

After reading the information, Chen Ge was generally satisfied with Xu Yin. This guy, like the Pen Fairy, was a special kind of evil spirit with his own special abilities.

"Great! I'll have one more trump card to play with when I go on trial missions in the future." Taking the tape out of the recorder, Chen Ge put it together with the ballpoint pen. "The only drawback is that the tape ghost only appears when it's being played. It seems I need to go to the flea market to buy a Walkman."

After finishing his own business, Chen Ge remembered that there was a "victim" lying in the bathroom.

He ran into the bathroom and found that Gu Feiyu had completely fainted in the bathtub.

"This kid must be scared to death." Chen Ge dragged Gu Feiyu out of the bathtub, covered him with a security uniform, wrapped the butcher knife and hid it at the bottom of his backpack, then sat at the scene waiting for Captain Li to arrive.

Twenty minutes later, Captain Li and the property manager of the community arrived.

In order to prevent the situation from escalating, they did not make too much noise.

"Chen Ge!" As soon as he entered the room, Captain Li saw Chen Ge sitting in the middle of the room: "Are you okay? Where is the suspect?"

"He has been tied up. The victim is the security guard. He is now in a coma."

Captain Li entered the house and checked the scene. He frowned and glanced at Chen Ge: "Is the woman the murderer? Is the man the victim?"

"That's right."

"Then why were you there? What role did you play?"

"I..." Chen Ge thought quickly: "What a coincidence, there is a girl suffering from depression on the 14th floor, and I cured her. Tonight I am here to see how she is recovering. If you don't believe me, you can go upstairs and ask."

"So you stumbled upon this murder case by accident?"

"You can understand it this way." After Chen Ge finished speaking, he found that the eyes of several police officers looking at him had changed: "Really, it was just an accidental discovery."

"You don't have to say it, I believe it." Captain Li waved to the people behind him: "Ayong, go call an ambulance and send the victim to the hospital for treatment and examination. The rest of you come over to collect fingerprints. Don't touch the drinks on the table. Women don't have the advantage in physical strength. Murders are usually committed by poisoning, etc. Be careful to protect the scene."

Captain Li is very experienced and was able to deduce part of the case with just a rough glance.

Chen Ge stood silently by the side without saying a word, still holding the half page of advertising paper in his hand.
