"This mission is related to where my parents are going. There is no reason to give up. Looking at the mission description, it seems that all I have to do is keep my eyes closed."

Chen Ge put away his black phone and looked at the white cat: "Only one person can go there, and no evil spirits or obsessions can be brought with you. Items related to the horror house are also not allowed. Will the ghost fetus notice if you bring these things with you?"

Since the black phone asked him to do so, Chen Ge had no choice but to do so. He put on his coat and found a bundle of strong ropes in the drawer. He tied one end to his wrist and the other end to the white cat.

"Other people put a leash on their pets when walking them because they are afraid that the pets will run away and they will be lost; I put a leash on my white cat because I am afraid that I will walk into the wrong place and the white cat will not be able to find me. It is true that you raise a cat for a thousand days but only use it for a moment."

The white cat, which had been lying comfortably on the bed, was now looking at Chen Ge alertly, with its ears erect and its eyes moving between the rope and itself.

"Come on, I'll take you to eat something delicious." Chen Ge wanted to pick up the white cat, but the white cat held on to the bed sheet and refused to let go.

"Aren't all cats nocturnal? What are you doing here?"

"If you don't exercise, you won't be able to run anymore!"

"Don't be afraid! I promise that I will never abandon you no matter what happens. Do you see this rope? This is the strong bond between you and me!"

…

"Master, I want to go to the lighting factory opposite the Jiangyuan community in Dongjiao." Chen Ge sat in the back seat of the taxi holding the white cat. He now had experience and would never tell the driver directly that he was going to dangerous places to prevent the driver from refusing to take him.

"That place is a bit remote. What are you doing going to the lighting factory so late at night?" The driver was observing Chen Ge through the rearview mirror. It was not that he was too cautious, but passengers like Chen Ge were too special. At more than one o'clock in the morning, he was going from the western suburbs to the eastern suburbs with a cat.

"The lighting factory is owned by my family. Something happened there, so I want to go over and take a look."

“Didn’t that lighting factory go bankrupt?” the driver became even more confused.

"Yes, we are going there just because it went bankrupt. Do you think that just because it went bankrupt, such a big factory can just be abandoned there and ignored?" Chen Ge's tone was filled with a hint of dissatisfaction, as if he was in a bad mood.

"Don't think I'm being long-winded. The East Suburbs have been in turmoil recently. The place you're going to had an incident a few days ago."

"What's up?"

"In the community opposite the lighting factory, it seems that the husband accidentally fell from the balcony after drinking too much. The most terrifying thing is that the drunkard was driven home by my colleague. In short, that place is a bit weird and hard to describe." The driver started the car.

"I don't believe in these things." Chen Ge smiled indifferently: "My family always told me that money makes the world go round. If you are afraid of ghosts, it only means that you don't have enough money."

The driver was speechless and stopped trying to dissuade Chen Ge. Chen Ge also had some time to himself and took the opportunity to search for relevant information.

Half an hour later, the taxi took Chen Ge to the eastern suburbs.

After paying and getting off the car, Chen Ge carried the white cat and headed straight for Jiangyuan Community, leaving the drivers behind dumbfounded.

"The mission is required to start at 2 a.m." Chen Ge crossed the road and came to the gate of the community.

There were two buildings standing in front, and it was dark all around, looking very desolate.

This was the first time Chen Ge came back here since he moved, and the scene in his memory had long since changed.

"Is there no security guard in such a large community?"

The gate of the community was half open, but the guard's room next to it was sealed and locked.

Going further in, there were various flyers scattered on the path, and only two street lights were on the side of the road, one of which was flickering.

Chen Ge looked up and saw two buildings on the left and right. One of them was completely dark and lifeless. On the ground floor of the other building, there were a few houses with lights on and clothes hanging on the balconies that had not been collected yet.

"There are people living here, so there shouldn't be a problem. But why are all the lighted rooms concentrated on the ground floor?"

Both buildings in Jiangyuan Community met the mission requirements. For safety reasons, Chen Ge chose the one where people lived.

He held the white cat and approached the building. He saw that the wall next to the corridor entrance was covered with various notices. Some were from the property management urging owners to pay fees, some were from owners jointly complaining about the property management, and there were also lost and found notices and missing persons notices mixed in.

"The management is very chaotic. Did the developer here run away with the money?"

Chen Ge entered the stairwell. The corridor was on the left and the elevator was on the right.

He pressed the elevator button and looked, and sure enough, he couldn't find the button for the fourteenth floor on the control panel. The fifteenth floor was directly above the thirteenth floor.

After determining the number of floors, Chen Ge entered the corridor. He looked at the stairs in front of him: "Each floor has 26 steps, 13 steps form a section, and there is a turning point in the middle. The height of the steps is approximately..."

He repeated the attempt several times to get his legs used to the height of the steps.

"The mission specifically requires that the building must have a basement and no fourteenth floor. These two factors must also be taken into consideration." Chen Ge crouched at the corner of the stairs and took a look underground: "There is a floor underground. It should not be occupied. All the doors are locked. I don't know what it is used for."

Then he looked up at the stairs, layer upon layer, intertwining with each other, like a stairway to heaven.

"There are only lights on the first and fourth floors of the building. They are still on without any sound, which means they are not voice-activated lights." Chen Ge closed his eyes first, then opened them again: "I can still feel the changes in light after closing my eyes."

It is extremely difficult to walk to the top floor with your eyes closed in one breath. It requires not only courage but also amazing willpower.

"The difficulty of nightmare-level daily tasks is getting higher and higher. Is it because I am slowly approaching the truth?"

Since he couldn't bring along the evil spirits, Chen Ge could only make more preparations in other ways.

He checked the time and took out a piece of black cloth from his pocket: "The mission requires that you cannot open your eyes, but it does not say that you cannot cover your eyes. This should reduce the difficulty a little."

The opaque black cloth can make the eyes less sensitive, but even if he is blindfolded, Chen Ge will never secretly open his eyes during the mission, because those terrifying things are likely to get into the black cloth.

After patting the white cat's head, Chen Ge placed it on his shoulder: "Little ancestor, you will be my eyes in a while, so don't run around. If something particularly scary appears, you don't have to remind me, unless it wants to kill us, then you can catch me and bite me, understand?"

There was not much time left, so Chen Ge didn't care whether the white cat understood what he said or not. He let it stay on his shoulder and took out his cell phone.

With ten seconds left until two in the morning, he closed his eyes and tied the black cloth in front of his eyes again.

"here we go."

After closing his eyes, the world fell into darkness. Chen Ge held onto the wall and took the first step.
