Chapter 51 Choice
His eyes were red and swollen, and Chen Ge stood in front of the mirror holding a tutu.
"There is one minute that's midnight."
The lights were not turned on in the bathroom, and Chen Ge stared at himself in the mirror.
He was afraid of missing something, so he didn't blink his eyes, pressed his palm against the toilet table, and his face was very close to the mirror.
He was fully focused and focused all his attention on the mirror. At about a few seconds before midnight, Chen Ge's cell phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.
"Tel? Who will call me at this time?"
The sudden change scared Chen Ge. He took out his cell phone and the caller ID had Captain Li's name written on it.
"Is there something unexpected?" Chen Ge answered the phone and put it in his ear: "Uncle Sanbao, are you asking me for trouble?"
"Zhang Peng has not been arrested yet. We have further narrowed the scope of investigation. We can confirm that he is hiding in the western suburbs of Jiujiang! You must be careful! This suspect is extremely cunning and dangerous. His behavior is different from that of normal people. We do not rule out that he will go back to find you now!" On the other side of the phone, Captain Li's voice was serious and urgent.
"Didn't there be layers of control outside the New Century Paradise last night? He was injured with his arms, so he probably couldn't run far?" In Chen Ge's opinion, it was only a matter of time before Zhang Peng was arrested.
"The situation has changed. It is not easy to explain it to you in detail for the time being. I will reveal one thing that a police officer seemed to see something after successfully intercepting the suspect last night. He is now in a deep coma and is being rescued in the hospital."
"What?!" Chen Ge's expression changed. Just as he was about to speak, he accidentally saw the mirror on the wall again.
On the smooth mirror surface, a blood-red Arabic numeral - "1" appeared at some point.
"But you don't have to worry. The search scope is shrinking. If evil does not suppress righteousness, he will definitely be punished by law!"
Team Li was still talking about something, but Chen Ge was no longer interested in listening. He put his phone aside and stared at the mirror in a daze.
"When did it appear? The monster in the mirror has left. How could the numbers still appear on the mirror?!" Chen Ge recalled the scene last night. Half of the monster in the mirror was in the mirror and half was outside the mirror. Then Zhang Peng took the initiative to put it on the mirror and merge it with it.
"What does this number mean? Yesterday was '2', and today became '1' again. Will it be cleared after twelve o'clock tomorrow?" The gradually fewer numbers made Chen Ge's gaze solemn: "The number changed for the first time after Zhang Peng was brought to the monster in the mirror. Team Li said just now that a police officer fell into a coma, and after the second victim appeared, the number decreased again. Will this number be related to the victim? The monster in the mirror needs three living people?"
No matter whether this number represents time or life, Chen Ge is not ready to wait any longer, and he feels a strong sense of crisis in his heart.
"The monsters in the mirror are growing, and tomorrow night may be my last chance." Chen Ge took out the rag and wiped the numbers on the mirror. He no longer cared about so many things.
After simply dealing with Team Li for a few words, he hung up the phone and entered the tool room with his black phone.
"Midnight has passed, and new daily tasks should be refreshed. There are two tasks that can help me now. One is the favorability task of the Red-clothed Ghost, and the other is the new nightmare-level daily tasks added today."
Turning on the black phone, Chen Ge clicked on the column of daily tasks.
"Simple difficulty: A thrilling experience should not cause traumatic psychological shadows to the experiencer. I think you should understand the truth that too much is not enough. Please improve the safety system of haunted houses and check for safety hazards in haunted houses."
"General difficulty: You have obtained an opportunity to expand the haunted house. Please find the right site as soon as possible for expansion! Due to site restrictions, you cannot conduct any trial missions in any scenario before the expansion is completed!"
"Nightmare difficulty: There is another person living in your room. Don't you want to know who he is?"
"Be careful! Some tasks are extremely dangerous, please choose carefully!"
After watching three tasks, Chen Ge's eyes wandered on the third nightmare task: "Is there another person living in the room? I feel uncomfortable when I hear it."
Chen Ge is well aware of the dangers of the nightmare mission. He struggled for a long time but did not choose to accept it. Instead, he flipped his phone and opened the exclusive page of the Red-clothed Ghost.
"Do you accept Zhang Ya's favorability task? Pay attention! This task has certain dangers!"
The mobile phone gave Chen Ge thoughtfully a warning and reminded him. He rubbed his temples and was a little confused.
"These two tasks are very dangerous, but the rewards for daily tasks of nightmare difficulty are random, and I am very likely to give me another auxiliary ability; on the other hand, Zhang Ya is a red-clad ghost with an exclusive page on her phone. She looks very powerful, like she is several levels higher than the monster in the mirror. If she can take action, I have a great hope of breaking the deadlock."
After analyzing for a long time, Chen Ge gritted his teeth and clicked on Zhang Ya's favorability task.
"Confirm to accept Zhang Ya's favorability task?"
"Sure!"
The blood-red interface began to churn, like withering roses, and new words soon appeared on the mobile phone screen.
"Ansserson's Fairy Tale Volume 1, Collection of the Third Collection - "Red Dance Shoes": There is a pair of very beautiful and attractive red dance shoes. When girls wear it on their feet, they will feel lighter and more energetic when dancing. But the girls are just thinking about it, and no one dares to really wear it on their feet to dance. Because this is a pair of magical shoes, once they are put on and dance, they will dance endlessly until they exhaust all the energy of the dancers..."
"Please arrive at Xicheng Private School within one hour of accepting the task and find Zhang Ya's red dance shoes before dawn."
"Note: Don't be late for the first date, otherwise she will be unhappy."
After reading the task prompts on your phone, Chen Ge's expression was strange. Xicheng Private School was abandoned a few years ago. The specific reason is unknown. It is said that something terrifying happened and he had to close it.
"The first time I dated a girl was in an abandoned school after midnight. Is there something wrong with my love story?"
The task required him to arrive at Xicheng Private School within an hour. Chen Ge calculated the time and it was sufficient: "The former site of Xicheng Private School is located in the western suburbs. It is not far from me. The key is that it will pass by at around twelve o'clock in the morning... Forget it, I'd better take a shower first. No matter what, this is my first time."
After taking a shower quickly, Chen Ge changed into clean clothes and stood in front of the mirror again: "There are fifty minutes left, why did you suddenly start to feel a little nervous?" bdshare();
