My House of Horrors - Chapter 1142
Chen Ge asked Lao Wu to identify himself to the landlord, and the two entered the rental house to check.
Chiren left in a hurry, the takeaways on the table were not finished, all kinds of clothes were thrown on the sofa, the drawers were not closed, and the house was messy, just like a thief.
“Did Chiren tell you where he is going?”
“No, but he has been on the phone recently. It seems that he wants someone to take him in for a while. In the meantime, he quarreled several times with the people on the phone.” The landlord pointed to the wall: “Old house, poor sound insulation Although Chiren looks honestly at ordinary times, he is very frightening when he gets angry.”
“Then have you heard more important names of people and places?” Chen Ge looked serious.
“They seem to have mentioned a deli called Shilixiang, and the owner seems to have the last name to eat.” The landlord can provide limited information. During the conversation, Chen Ge quietly released Men Nan out.
While they were chatting, Men Nan probably searched the entire room, but found nothing.
Leaving the apartment building, Lao Wu drove Chen Ge to Shilixiang Deli.
This store is located on the most prosperous Century Avenue in Xinhai. Coincidentally, Shangguan Qinghong’s haunted house is also near Century Avenue. The two stores belong to the same business district.
“The Century Avenue business district is brightly lit 24 hours a day, and it is very popular. It is indeed a good choice to hide here.” In a popular place, the action of ghosts is very inconvenient, even the red clothes will be affected.
“Angkor, you don’t have to worry about me after you send me to the deli. I really trouble you today. When I’m free, I will definitely invite you to dinner.”
“Can you be alone? This is Xinhai. You are unfamiliar with the place in your life, so you don’t dare to do dangerous things by yourself.” Old Wu gave Chen Ge his cell phone number: “Call me when you have trouble. I will try my best to help you find a way.”
“Thanks a lot.”
Lao Wu came with Teacher Wang. He still had the task of not being able to act with Chen Ge for a long time, but he was able to send Chen Ge to Xinhai, which already made Chen Ge very grateful.
Carrying two big bags, Chen Ge directly found Shilixiang Deli.
The store is small, but there are many customers, and there is a long line at the door.
“Business is booming.”
It took a full fifteen minutes for Chen Ge to be in line. He looked at the various cooked foods in the shop window and smelled the scent: “Boss, how does your cooked food feel so much better than others?”
“My family has a secret sauce uploaded by our ancestors. This taste is the only one in the world!” The boss is a big fat man and he looks very happy.
“Come a bit of everything, I am a person who likes to eat meat.” When Chen Ge spoke, he had been secretly observing the boss and staff, and found no problems. This seems to be a normal deli.
After paying, Chen Ge left with a large bag of cooked food.
It was dark, but the streets were still busy, not only did not become deserted, but it became more and more lively.
“Xinhai is a big city after all.” With two big bags and the bag of cooked food, Chen Ge found Shangguan Qinghong’s haunted house on the corner of the street. Compared with the main road, the flow of people here is indeed much less.
“When I came last time, this was another haunted house.”
As soon as Chen Ge entered the haunted house, an employee greeted her enthusiastically, but when she saw Chen Ge’s face, she instantly stepped back.
“Chen, Chen Ge…” The female employee was so impressed with Chen Ge that her boss was hospitalized twice because of the terrifying man in front of her.
“I will call my boss in the future. New Century Paradise has already bought you here.” Chen Ge took out a certificate from his backpack: “Go and call all the free employees. I have something to tell you.”
The enemy has become a new boss, and the employees in the hall look very ugly. They look at Chen Ge just like watching a big villain in a TV series, and they will not give up until the poor are forced to the limit.
“Don’t stand stupid, go quickly!” Chen Ge didn’t even think of bullying these employees. Although this haunted house provoked him first, he is very magnanimous. He didn’t let the little things in the past go. In mind.
Ten minutes later, several employees wearing ghost makeup rushed out of the scene. Counting the cashier and the handyman in charge of water and electricity logistics, there were a total of five employees standing in the hall.
“Why are you just a few of you here? What about the others? Are you trying to give me a blow?” Chen Ge remembered that this haunted house had at least a dozen employees.
“There are fewer and fewer tourists, and wages cannot be paid. Coupled with haunted rumors, many people choose to leave.” The female employee whispered: “Because of the shortage of manpower, we now open the two most popular scenes. .”
“Occupying such a good location, there will be fewer and fewer tourists? It seems that Shangguan Qinghong really needs to reflect on it.” Chen Ge looked at the remaining five employees: “Shangguan Qinghong has sold this place to I, if you are willing to continue working here, I welcome it. If you don’t want to, I will make up for you the salary that Shangguan Qinghong owes you, so that we can get together and relax.”
Hearing that Chen Ge said that he would repay his salary, the remaining five employees were a little moved. In the end, including the female front desk staff, four of them chose to leave.
Chen Ge settled their wages on the spot: “You will not use it tomorrow. I wish you a better job.”
After the handover, the four employees removed their makeup and left, leaving only Chen Ge and one female employee in the huge haunted house.
“Why don’t you leave with them?” Chen Ge looked at the female employee and felt familiar.
“I usually live here. If I leave, I won’t even have a place to live.”
“You should have saved a lot of money after working for so long? How come you don’t even have a place to rent?” When Chen Ge said this, he forgot that he also lives in a haunted house every day.
“My brother is not in good health. He needs medical treatment and has to go to school. It costs more. If I can save it, I will try to save some.” The female employee whispered. She seemed to be afraid of Chen Ge, but for the salary and housing Place, she bit her head and stood still.
“Have a problem at home?” Chen Ge nodded: “You add me to WeChat first. I will replenish you with the salary owed by Shangguan Qinghong. You will stay here to work in the future.”
“thank you boss.”
“Have we met before? I always feel that you look familiar.”
“My name is Hu Die and everyone is called Xiaodie. When you visited here last time, I played a game of pen fairy with you.” The female employee whispered back.
“It’s you! I almost didn’t recognize it after removing my makeup.” Chen Ge thought of the girl. At that time, he and Xiaodie were playing a game of pen fairy. When the second game was played, he put the ballpoint pen with the real pen fairy hidden in it. When it was taken out, Xiaodie was directly shocked.
In order to prevent embarrassment, Chen Ge changed the subject: “It is said that our haunted house is really haunted. You have experienced it yourself. Why do you still insist on working here? Are you not afraid?”
“There is nothing in this world that scares me more than being poor.” Xiaodie held her hands together, and her family environment seemed very bad.
“Don’t think about the unhappy things, work hard, I can’t guarantee that you will become rich in the future, but at least there is no problem with doubling your salary.” Chen Ge doesn’t like empty words and idioms. He usually talks about him. It can be done.
“The welfare of my employees is much better than yours before. You’d better find a place to live first. I’m not driving you away. I found out that your haunted house does have a problem since I visited.” Chen Ge stared into Xiaodie’s eyes: “There seems to be something unclean at night. For your safety, let’s move out.”
Xiaodie nodded, looking pitiful.
“Let’s go, take me around in the haunted house. I was in a hurry last time. I haven’t even watched many scenes.”
Chen Ge and Xiaodie entered the haunted house. Before watching a few scenes, Xiaodie’s cell phone rang suddenly.
Seeing the caller ID, Xiaodie walked to the side with embarrassment and connected the call.
“Sister, where are you? Can I stay with you for one night tonight?” A boy’s voice came from the phone, still crying in his words.
Xiaodie was very embarrassed. Chen Ge just told her that she could not live here, and she didn’t know how to answer her brother: “Aren’t you living in school? Why did you sneak out?”
“I really can’t live there anymore.”
“Are they bullying you again?” Xiaodie was a little angry.
“Sister, don’t ask. I’m at the door of your haunted house. Let me stay for one night.” The boy begged desperately. Xiaodie looked at Chen Ge helplessly. Before she opened her mouth, Chen Ge nodded. agreed.
“No problem, you can let him stay here for one night today, but it’s not a long-term plan. You’d better figure out why he doesn’t want to live on campus.”
“Thank you, boss.” Xiaodie hung up and ran out of the scene with Chen Ge.
In the hall of the haunted house, a thin high school student with white skin was standing at this time. He had a narrow skeleton, a wound on his face, and a stomped glasses in his hand.
“Why did you come here by yourself?” Xiaodie saw the high school student and quickly walked over. She took out the wet wipes from under the counter, and helped the high school student wipe his clothes and dust his arms: “I’m going to find band-aids. Don’t run around here.”
After Xiaodie left, Chen Ge and high school students were left in the lobby.
“Can your school allow students to leave school at will at night?” Chen Ge put the two big bags in his hands on the seats and took two glasses of water. He held one by himself and put the other in front of the high school students.
The male student did not pick up the water that Chen Ge handed over. He didn’t seem to like Chen Ge too much: “Are you and my sister a colleague? Why are you two here today?”
“Can’t it?” Chen Ge took a sip of the water in the cup and smiled.
The auras of the two are not at the same level at all, Xiaodie’s brother stood still, holding the trampled glasses, silently saying nothing.
After a while, Xiaodie ran over with the medicine box in the haunted house, and gave her brother a simple treatment of the wound.
In the middle, Xiaodie asked her brother several times what happened, but her brother didn’t say anything. After treating the wound, her brother walked into the haunted house with his schoolbag. He seemed to know where the haunted house’s staff lounge was. He took refuge in a haunted house for the first time.
“Hu Yuan! Wait!” Xiaodie called out twice before the high school student stopped.
“I don’t want to say anything, can you stop asking!” Hu Yuan’s emotions were very ups and downs, and his heart was obviously very painful.
“This is Chen Ge, the new owner of Nightmare Academy. You have to live in a haunted house and at least get his approval. This is the most basic courtesy.” Xiaodie dragged Hu Yuan to Chen Ge.
“He can live here, but what can be changed by hiding here for a night?” Chen Ge walked to Hu Yuan: “Fear will not dissipate because you avoid it. Sooner or later you have to face it. It is better to speak out and let me And your sister will help you figure out a solution.”
Since getting the black phone, Chen Ge has encountered countless problem children and has accumulated extremely rich experience.
Under his continuous guidance, Hu Yuan finally told the truth.
There are four people in their dormitory, and the other three always bully him in a group.
He usually bears it, but when school is over this afternoon, the three little **** stuffed him with a letter.
Hu Yuan insisted not, but the three people started to tease his sister, and finally Hu Yuan fought with the three people.
Of course the thin Hu Yuan was not the opponent of the three. After being beaten, he didn’t want to go back to the dormitory again, so he ran to his sister.
A typical campus bullying, Xiaodie is very angry and wants to find a school teacher tomorrow.
“They want to send you a letter?” Chen Ge heard something strange: “Did you finally want that letter?”
“Cao Fei stuffed the letter to me. I was going to throw it away, but I hesitated after seeing the content of the letter.” Hu Yuan took out a letter from his schoolbag: “You still don’t read it, I Think of a way to deal with it.”
In fact, Chen Ge didn’t care at all, but when he saw the envelope, his pupils slowly diminished. A deep black mark remained on the surface of the letter, which was left after the blood dried up: “Why is there human blood on the envelope?”
Chen Ge took the letter in his hand and opened it regardless of Hu Yuan’s obstruction. In addition to a few hairs of different lengths, there was also a case slip inside.
The patient’s name was not written on the list, but a few sentences were written on the back with a red ballpoint pen.
“Please cut one of your hair and put it in an envelope, and then give this letter to someone else.”
“If you didn’t forward this letter to someone else before dark, I would show up at your house at 4:44 AM.”
“If you still haven’t given this letter to anyone else within three days, I will appear in front of you at 4:44 AM.”
“Curse the envelope? So naive.” Chen Ge looked at the hair in the envelope and knew that many people had touched the envelope.
“You should return the letter to me. I heard Cao Fei say that he really saw something last night.” Hu Yuan went to get the envelope, but Chen Ge got out of the way.
“The most important task at your age now is to study hard. You don’t care about other things.” Chen Ge patted Hu Yuan on the shoulder: “The person who gave you this letter is called Cao Fei, right? “
“Yep.”
“He lives on campus like you?”
“What do you want to do?” Hu Yuan was dumbfounded, looking at his sister, Xiaodie didn’t know what Chen Ge wanted to do.
“I’m going to show up at his bedside at 4:44 tonight.” Chen Ge smiled and put away the envelope: “Just kidding, you should go inside and rest first.”
With a relaxed and natural expression, Chen Ge seemed as if nothing had happened. He asked Xiaodie to show him all the scenes and then locked himself in the principal’s office.
“The configuration of the Nightmare Academy is better than that of the Horror House. These props alone are worth a lot of money.” Chen Ge opened the comic book and asked several boys in red to carefully search every corner of the haunted house, and after confirming that there was no danger, He was completely relieved.
“There are two things to do tonight, investigating the deli, and figuring out the source of the cursed envelope.” Chen Ge has seen many case slips, but it was the first time he saw the blank case slips without names and photos. .
“I will go to Cao Fei after the early morning, and look up one by one. I will definitely find the source of the curse.” Chen Ge put his legs on the principal’s desk and changed a comfortable posture: “School is a place to study. , All those who make the idea of students are not worthy of forgiveness.”
