The reason Chen Ge came to find Zhang Li was because the security guard had been acting weirdly inside the Haunted House, and Chen Ge believed that the man had experienced something unique before. Zhang Li's somberness came from his soul; he should be hiding many secrets that he could not share with others in his heart. Being stared by Chen Ge, Zhang Li was nervous. His lips opened several times, but he made no sound.

"Please don't be hesitant, tell me everything you've seen and heard." The more Zhang Li acted like this, the more curious Chen Ge became.

"It's not that I don't want to, but I'm afraid you won't believe me even if I do." Zhang Li took out a cigarette from his pocket and asked, "Do you mind?"

"Of course not, this is your place. Don't mind me."

After he got Chen Ge's approval, Zhang Li lit the cigarette and took a deep puff. He enjoyed the feeling of the smoke filling up his lungs; it was as if only then would he be able to forget these annoying problems. The smoke escaped from his lips, and the first words Zhang Li said already grabbed Chen Ge's attention. "The cadavers down in the underground morgue know how to move on their own."

"Moving corpses‽"

"That's not even the scariest thing." Zhang Li's arm trembled slightly. "When I first took up the guard post at Western Jiujiang Medical University, the school was in the middle of expanding the underground morgue. The pools that were originally used to store the cadavers had to stop their usage, and the admin planned to make a more advanced mortuary. The morgue is underground, so the work was hard.

"Initially, the school planned to transform the largest morgues at the deepest part of the place, they wanted to crack open the cadaver pools and redo everything. They hired a professional team to handle it, and the renovation was scheduled to finish in less than half a month. However, on the second day of the renovation, an accident happened.

"When one of the workers was cleaning the Formalin inside the pool, he accidentally fell into the pool. The pool was not deep, but the worker was simply unable to climb out. He said there were many hands holding him back, refusing to let him go." Zhang Li soon finished the cigarette. He shrugged and said, "The large cadaver pools were similar to the open bathing pools that were common in the past; however, the liquid in the pool was brownish in color and opaque. You could only see the cadaver's limbs, back and hair floating above water."

"What happened to the worker that fell into the pool?" Chen Ge was more curious about that.

"There was a metal hook used to fish the cadavers out from the water. The workers who were present dropped the hook into the pool and had the man who fell in grab the hook. With the cooperation of many people, they finally fished him out of the water." Zhang Li lit another cigarette. He was a heavy smoker, especially when he was thinking about those dark memories stored in the back of his mind. "When the man fell into the pool, he accidentally swallowed a mouthful of the formalin, and thus, he was quickly rushed to the hospital to have his stomach pumped. The man was fine, but I heard that after he recovered, something was wrong with his mind. He was simply not the same anymore."

"Do you still have contact with that man? Did he say anything before he went insane?"

"I'm not sure, this was already so long ago. But if you really need to know, I can help you ask around at the school. Don't keep your hopes up though."

"Okay, do continue." Chen Ge took out his phone to record any details that he deemed important.

"After the man was sent to the hospital, the renovation work continued as normal, but on the night after that, another strange event happened." Zhang Li's expression was one of distress like he still felt uncomfortable thinking about it. "The number of cadavers that had been moved out by the team in the morning changed."

"This is what you meant by moving corpses?"

"I suppose so, but the scariest thing happened later." Zhang Li was telling the stories of others, so he did not explain how he became like this. His voice dropped, and Zhang Li took another puff of the cigarette. "The team went deeper into the morgue on the third day. After they dealt with all the bodies inside the first morgue and moved away the pool that was built more than twenty years ago, all the workers were stunned by what they found.

"At the bottom of the pool, just like in a human body, the ground was covered with blood vessels. When light hit them, they quickly squirreled away." Zhang Li had a frown on his pale face. "At the time, I was present, and I also looked in. How shall I put this? It felt like the pool was alive."

"Blood vessels underneath the pool?" Chen Ge recorded Zhang Li's words.

"The person responsible for the team found the school admin to report this, but the school didn't have a good explanation. In the end, they said that it was some kind of extremely rare fungus." Zhang Li shook his head. "Even an uneducated man like myself knew they were lying. The renovation team said that they want to stop the work, but after the school offered to double the salary, the team continued.

"That afternoon, the team dug deeper into the pool because they wanted to expand the space, but the more they dug, the more worried they became. The soil underneath the pool reeked of formalin, and the soil was reddish in color. One could also spot lines that were dark brown, and they broke once you tried to touch them. No one knew what they were; they did not look like plant roots or insects.

"The team relayed the situation to the school. They even collected some soil samples and sent them to the school. The school could not give a clear explanation—they just rushed the team to move faster.

"To calm the people from the renovation team, the school arranged for someone to accompany them, telling them not to worry and everything that they had come across so far was something normal." Zhang Li seemed to have plenty of issues with how the school handled the situation. His tone shifted slightly. "At the time, I was a newbie, and no one wanted to enter the underground morgue, so the task naturally fell on my shoulders. I was just a lackey for the school, and I didn't know anyone from the renovation team, so I was stuck between a rock and a hard place.

"The renovation speed was very slow because weird things kept happening. The team members kept getting injured, and eventually, they all gave up and refused to work. The school eventually relented, and after some discussion with the foreman, they changed the plan.

"They planned to expand the mortuary outwards and stopped using the original morgue, abandoning it completely.

"However, there was a condition to the school's compromise. They needed the team to finish the work within a month. If the renovation couldn't be completed within the time limit, then it would be viewed as a violation of contract."

"The renovation team already did not want to stay inside the deeper part of the morgue, so they sealed up the road that led into the morgue and started expanding outward, following the blueprint. After we left the deeper part of the morgue, the accidents stopped, and the renovation started to rush for the deadline. When they were close to the deadline, to rush the progress, they worked into the night.

"The school also knew how hard it was for the team, so they would assign people to send them water and provide aid." Zhang Li's teeth gritted as he continued. "The school handed this chore to the teachers that stayed at the school dormitory and the security team. Initially, everyone would go together, but after a while, the teachers would leave early since everything was going well. Other people from the security team took this opportunity to push all the work onto me.

"The underground morgue had been renovated many times, so the internal routes were very complicated. I was new, and even with the map, the chance of getting lost was still high. Three days to the deadline, the people from the team were nervous, and they had to hire a new batch of workers to hurry up the process. They worked day and night, so I had to stay to accompany them. It was fine during the day, but the place changed after the sun fell.

"It was middle of summer at the time, and outside was as hot as an oven. However, once you entered the morgue, it was not only not hot, you would shiver uncontrollably for no reason. The new batch of workers did not know about the things that happened in the deeper part of the morgue and they thought the working environment was alright. When some of them got tired at night, they laid a mattress on the floor and slept just like that." Zhang Li squeezed the cigarette against the metal plate as his story was reaching its end.

"The underground morgue was different at night, but how different, I could not really tell. In any case, that night, the strange thing happened again.

"I received a call at 1 am saying that someone on the team had disappeared. I quickly called everyone else and headed to the underground morgue. When we were halfway there, the people called again, saying that the man had been found. At the time, I was so angry, but I was even angrier at the teacher who was responsible for watching over the renovation. The man berated me, saying that I had disturbed his sleep and worried him before I understood everything.

"I could not say anything to explain myself. So, I returned to my bedroom. Not long after that, the people from the renovation team called again, saying that a different person had disappeared. This time, I asked the man for more details. The man said, when the first person disappeared, he said that he heard someone calling his name and he raised his head to see someone waving at him, so he had followed the person. When he was halfway down the corridor, he had realized that the corridor led deeper into the morgue. At that moment, he knew that something was wrong, so he quickly ran back.

"The second person disappeared after he went out in search of the first man. His phone was not reachable, and no one knew where he was. The incident sounded serious, so as I rushed to the morgue, I called the teacher. After the teacher knew the gravity of the situation, he told me to calm the people first, and he would arrive shortly.

"That night, I stayed with the renovation team in the underground morgue, and around dawn, we found the missing man inside the deeper part of the morgue. He was lying next to the half-dug pool, unconscious.

"No one could explain this situation, and anxiety spread through the team. They refused to stay there any longer, but since the deadline was coming soon and their work was almost done, it would be a waste to give up then.

"In the end, it was the school who settled the problem. They assigned the security team to stay with the renovation team in the underground morgue to ensure that the project could be finished on time. That night, two guards and I stayed back so that the team could come to us directly if there was any problem.

"I really could not stand it anymore after midnight, so I found a corner to take a nap. It was quite peaceful that night; there was no accident. The project was reaching its end. After spending so much time in the morgue, that morning, I hit the bed and slept.

"On that last night, we returned to the underground morgue. Everything was going fine, and I believed that the peacefulness would persist through the night, so I found an isolated room and covered myself up with several old cement bags as I tried to sneak a bit of shut eye. Perhaps my mind had been too stressed at the time—sleep came quickly.

"When I opened my blurry eyes, the underground morgue became so dark. The lights brought by the renovation team had all been switched off, and only the old-fashioned lights on the wall were still on.

"I curled up in the corner and looked outward. People were moving in the outside corridor, and it sounded like the team was still working. I had just woken up, so my mind was not that sharp. I took out the phone to check the time. Before I got a clear look at the time, I suddenly heard footsteps. Someone was coming into the room. I was sleeping while people were working—that wasn't good, so I hid myself deeper and kept myself quiet.

"The person walked around the room and left. I glanced at the time; it was 3:40 am. There were several unanswered calls and unread messages on my phone. I clicked the messages open and realized that they were from my teammates, asking me where I was."

The smoke in the room had not dissipated, but Zhang Li took out another cigarette. He lit it and puffed on it.

"At the time, it really did not cross my mind, so I replied to him—'I'm still in the morgue. Where are you guys? Did you two sneak back into the bedroom already?'

"I was a newbie, so I'd been trying to buddy up to him. I even joked about how they left without telling me.

"About ten seconds later, the man replied, telling me to show myself instantly because people were looking for me.

"I was confused. The team was still working outside, and these two had run away from their post. Yet, they told me that people were looking for me.

"Just as I was about to send a reply, the man called. After I answered it, I realized that things were different from what I thought.

"The man immediately told me that the renovation had finished a long time ago, and the team had already all retreated. They wanted to know what I was doing inside the underground morgue."

Zhang Li bit the cigarette in his mouth into half, and his hands gripped his knees. "When he said that, I glanced out the room. One of the people walking on the corridor seemed to have heard me and was walking toward the room that I was hiding in."

"If the renovation team had all evacuated, who were the people walking in the corridor? I hung up the phone and moved the cement bags to cover my body even more, only exposing my eyes. The footsteps came closer, and I turned my eyes to look. The light was dim, and a blurry shadow walked to stand beside me. The way he moved was weird, like he could not coordinate his limbs. I held my breath and did not dare to move. The man walked around the room and prepared to leave. I edged the cement bag slightly away, and what saw will follow me forever."

Zhang Li's lips were purple, and he finally voiced the nightmare that had followed him for so many years. "The man's face was empty; his whole face had been picked clean."

The cigarette dust fell on the couch, and Zhang Li's arms could not stop shaking. "Way before body donor was a thing, the medical university used dead bodies from the penitentiary. After a criminal died from a gunshot, their head would look like that." Zhang Li had problem continuing.

This time, Chen Ge did not dare force the man. "Why don't you take a rest? Have some water."

"It's fine." Even though it had been years, thinking back, Zhang Li was still very afraid. He finished the cigarette and continued. "When I saw the criminal, I knew the problem. The people who entered the room and the people in the corridor, they were all dead bodies used for autopsy classes."

What Zhang Li described was indeed scarier than moving corpses. At the time, there had been a party down in the morgue, and Zhang Li had been the only living human guest. He had survived at that party until morning—no wonder he ended up in this state.

"I really did see it, and I kept it in my heart. I didn't dare tell anyone, not even my sister." His pupils danced, and Zhang Li's frowned creased deeply. His expression was filled with pain. "A few years ago, when the girl who had the argument with my sister disappeared, my sister suspected that she might have wandered into the underground morgue. She planned to expand her search there, but I stopped her firmly. The place was not somewhere a living person should go."

After sharing the thing that was trapped inside his heart, Zhang Li did feel better. He touched the box of cigarette and realized that he had already finished the whole box.

"Maybe you should stop taking so many cigarettes—it's not good for your body." Chen Ge sat in the chair and recorded everything that Zhang Li said on his phone.

"It's fine. After that night, I no longer cared about these things." Zhang Li crumbled the paper box, and without the cigarette, he was feeling rather unnerved. "Do you think I have lost my mind? Was I hallucinating that night?"

Chen Ge shook his head. He knew about the danger in the underground morgue. The black phone hinted at a group of people who were in search of immortality.

"Actually, I myself suspect that I was hallucinating that night."

"Do you still remember how you escaped that night?" Based on what Zhang Li had said, there should be in an insurmountable number of dead bodies.

"When I was hiding underneath the bags of cement, my body felt like it was frozen. I didn't even dare move an inch. I stayed in that position until 5 am, and the thing in the corridor started to move deeper into the morgue."

"Didn't you ask for help through the phone that night?" Chen Ge put down his phone. He was interested in the school's response. 

"When I had just woken up, I already talked on the phone with that security guard. I told them that I was still in the morgue, but they didn't send anyone to come find me. I didn't know what was up with them." From Zhang Li's tone, it sounded like he was still mad about that.

"Then did you discover anything weird when you left, like a big stain of formalin in the corridor or scratch marks on the wall."

"I waited until 8 am and crawled out when I couldn't hear any movement anymore. My body was pulsing with pain, and there were many bruises. I was in a hurry to escape, so I didn't pay attention to such details." That was where Zhang Li's story ended. After that, he saw the underground morgue as a banned location, and his personality turned bitter. "I advise you to stay away from that place. But if you insist on going, call people to accompany you and go during the day." Zhang Li told Chen Ge other things that he had heard about the place.

"The corridor connecting the lab and morgue normally wasn't locked because even if it was, the door would be opened.

"During the previous expansion, the school added seven new morgues, but when people went to retrieve the bodies, they came across an 8th morgue. The morgue was closest to the original morgue, and it doesn't have a number.

"The roads that lead deeper into the morgue have been sealed many times, but no matter what, there is always a problem. I remember one time the school used bricks to seal up the corridor, but only two weeks later, the walls crumbled. When the admin went to check, they found out each brick was reeking with a thick stench of formalin.

"There are many similar legends. The migration of the old campus is related to this as well. I hear Western Jiujiang Medical University is also moving next year September. After that, this campus will be locked down."

Chen Ge did not expect the school to move. Things were getting quite serious.

"The information that you've given me is very useful. I'll pass it on to the other officers. Also, it would be great if you can give me the map of the underground morgue tomorrow." Chen Ge planned to leave after that, but when he was at the door, he suddenly remembered something. "Zhang Li, why are you staying at Hai Ming Apartments? I've heard rumors about this place, and it happened in the room just below yours."

"Some madman committed suicide, I know that. I'm already an old tenant here." Zhang Li's expression did not change. It appeared to be a mere coincidence that he was staying here.

"Then do you a student by the name of Men Nan who also used to stay here?" Chen Ge asked as an added thought.

"I know, the kid just wanted a cheap bargain and stayed inside the room next to the dead man. The room is cursed. A doctor once stayed there, but he moved away after one night."

"How did you know he was a doctor?" Chen Ge paused to ask. "Doctors wouldn't wear their white robes outside of the hospital, and he only moved in for one day. No offense, but based on your personality, you wouldn't have gone forward to greet him, I don't think."

"I've seen him around the campus before, that Doctor Gao. He is rich, so I wondered why he would move to such a dilapidated building." Zhang Li was confused. "When I went downstairs to purchase cigarettes that night, I saw Doctor Gao standing in the corridor alone, doing God knows what."

"Before Men Nan moved in, Doctor Gao once spent a night in that room?"

"Yes, don't you think that's weird? He has so many assets at Jiujiang, so why would he purposely stay a night at a cheap apartment?" Zhang Li's words caused alarm bells to ring in Chen Ge's mind. The first person to discover something wrong with Men Nan was Doctor Gao; the person who took care of Men Nan was also Doctor Gao. That could all have been a plan set up by Doctor Gao. Men Nan had moved into this place due to a thread that he had seen on the school forum, and now that he thought about it, that thread was also highly suspicious.

People from Hai Ming Apartments would not have purposely come to the medical school's forum to post a thread. The thread was probably published by Doctor Gao, but why would Doctor Gao do something like this? What is he trying to accomplish? What is he trying to get from Men Nan's second persona?

After giving it some thought, Chen Ge realized that the only thing that could have attracted Doctor Gao's attention was Men Nan's connection to his main person. When the ghost stories society was at its full glory, they could have easily killed Men Nan's main persona, but they did not do that—they just made him fall into a coma.

Is Doctor Gao trying to figure out how to control the door-pusher? Chen Ge repeated the conversation that Doctor Gao had with Men Nan in his mind. If Doctor Gao is really No. 10 from the ghost stories society, did Men Nan's main persona know about that?

Chen Ge wanted to complete the Trial Mission at the underground morgue, but that was hard with his power alone. If only he could drag Men Nan down with him, after all, Men Nan's main persona was also a Red Specter.

Whether Doctor Gao is the chairperson or not, I can make use of this point to convince Men Nan. He won't want to see his other persona fall into the hands of the enemy.

With his mind made, Chen Ge planned to return to Third Sick Hall that night. "Zhang Li, you need to fetch me the map as soon as possible—it's very important."

Chen Ge was about to leave when his phone rang. It was from Lee Zheng.

"Do you need me to give you some privacy?" Zhang Li asked.

"No need." Chen Ge answered the phone before Zhang Li. "Inspector Lee, how can I help you?"

"Doctor Gao is the most cunning and careful person I've met in my years of being a cop! He has already noticed our plan, and two hours ago, he left Jiujiang."

"He left Jiujiang? Are you sure?" Doctor Gao leaving Jiujiang was good news for Chen Ge—it meant that there would be one less variable to worry about when he visited the underground morgue.

"How come I hear excitement in your voice?" Lee Zheng was confused. Doctor Gao's sudden departure meant that all their preparation had been wasted.

"This only means that he is really hiding something, looks like he's scared." Chen Ge said that on his lips, but his real plan was to make use of this opening to complete the mission at the underground morgue.

"I don't think you understand the situation. Based on our investigation, we've discovered more and more problems with Doctor Gao." Lee Zheng lowered his voice. "There is no one around you, right?"

"What's wrong?"

"Based on our investigation, Doctor Gao might be related to several murders. He was not a direct participant, but he was always involved somehow."

"Several?" Chen Ge still had a hard time believing it. "Could it be that he was framed?"

"With his intelligence, all over Jiujiang, the only person who could frame him is himself." There was a tiredness in Lee Zheng's voice. "I cannot deny the fact that he is a good doctor, but under that façade hides a madman. There is some information that I cannot reveal to you. the main reason I'm calling you is because I want you to prepare to make contact with Gao Ru Xue tomorrow night. Other than that, I'll send you some information. I want you to take a look at it."

"Okay, no problem." Chen Ge hung up and left after telling Zhang Li a few more things.

Doctor Gao leaving Jiujiang is the perfect chance for me. When I get the map, I'll start the mission.

For this mission, Chen Ge had prepared a lot, but he was still worried. Compared to completing a mission by the breath of a hair, he preferred to have a landslide victory.

Looks like I still need a few helpers. The door at Third Sick Hall would only open at midnight, so Chen Ge did not rush there. Instead, he called a cab to get to Jiujiang's Children's Home. When the guard saw Chen Ge, he was agitated and stood up to lock the door.

"Uncle!" Chen Ge ran over and forced his way in. "Are Jiang Ling and Fan Yu around? I have something important to discuss with them."

"The police just dropped them back here yesterday. The two children are tired, so please just leave them be and let the children's home have some time to recuperate." Before Chen Ge's arrival, the children's home had been so peaceful. However, after his appearance, two kids had gone missing, their only doctor had disappeared, and they were now under great public pressure.

"It won't take too much time." Chen Ge strode in after that. The Children's Home was the same as before. There were flower pots along the path and paintings of cartoons on the wall. The uncle could not stop Chen Ge, so he called the nurse to come help him.

However, the nurse had a good impression of Chen Ge. She told the uncle, "He was the one who found Fan Yu and Jiang Ling in the mountains. If not for him, we would have closed down already."

With the nurse leading the way, Chen Ge came to the room where Fan Yu and Jiang Ling stayed. He pushed the door open, and the scene was quite friendly. A single table lamp was open in the bedroom, and Fan Yu sat at the table drawing while Jiang Ling watched him draw while standing on her tip-toes.

"Fan Yu, look who came to visit you." The nurse called into the room. If this was other children, they would have run out happily, but to make things awkward, Fan Yu and Jiang Ling ignored her. The nurse smiled embarrassedly at Chen Ge. She wanted to say something but was stopped by Chen Ge. "Let's go in and take a look."

Inside the room, the warm light fell on Chen Ge. Everything here felt comfortable and warm until he saw the painting on the table. On the white paper, a black man walked ahead while various scary red shadows followed behind him.

Fan Yu's painting ruined the friendly atmosphere, and when he finished the painting, he turned to look at Chen Ge. "You're here."

"Hmm." Chen Ge had never treated Fan Yu as a normal child. He squatted down beside Fan Yu and glanced at his wrist. "Fan Yu, I have something to discuss with you. Do you mind if you lend me your wrist bangle for one night?"

"Sure, but the bangle only seems to work when I'm wearing it." Fan Yu removed the bangle given to him by the ghost in Coffin Village. When the bangle left his wrist, the red blood vessels disappeared, and it looked just like a normal bangle. When he put it on again, the red blood returned. "If you need my help, you can bring me with you."

"I don't think so." Chen Ge did not want to put Fan Yu in danger and had to take care of the boy. He scratched his chin and moved his gaze to settle on Jiang Ling. After the ghost from Coffin Village left her body, she was just a normal child. When Chen Ge looked at her, the girl almost cried.

The girl hid behind Fan Yu, and this made things awkward for the two adults there. Chen Ge did not know how to make his request, and the nurse felt like she had been ignored. After a small cough, Chen Ge had the nurse leave the room first. Then he came up with the kindest expression that he could. "Jiang Ling, I'm going to do something big tomorrow night. Please can you lend me your sister?"

Chen Ge tried his best to sound nice, but when Jiang Ling heard him say that, she still cried.

"Am I that scary?" Chen Ge did not know how to deal with kids. He felt children like Fan Yu and the phone spirit were easier to communicate with. Jiang Ling cried louder, and eventually, it was Fan Yu who leaned into the girl's ears and made her stop crying. Her teary eyes looked at Chen Ge.

"Is that a yes? What did you tell her?"

"I said you're her sister's best friend. You're a nice person and can make her sister happy."

"Well said." Chen Ge nodded. He felt like Fan Yu was picking up the good quality from him; the child was improving fast. Jiang Ling jogged to the sofa to pick out a plastic can from behind the cushion. Unwillingly, she handed it to Chen Ge.

"Don't worry, I just needed her to fill up the numbers; I will not let her get injured." Chen Ge accepted the can. There was a very small spider inside. "Is your sister inside here?"

Jiang Ling nodded with uncertainty. She felt like she had been tricked. His goal completed, Chen Ge did not stay any longer. He left the Children's Home and returned to the Third Sick Hall. He waited until midnight and sneaked into the door after it appeared.

When Chen Ge showed up next to the old director, the lonely human head was about to cry because he noticed a different ghost behind Chen Ge. Chen Ge did not waste time with the old director but went directly to find Men Nan. He exaggerated the story and told Men Nan everything. After Men Nan heard him, he started feel conflicted. After leaving the blood door, his power would greatly decrease, and from his perspective, the threat that Chen Ge represented was no smaller than Doctor Gao. Men Nan was afraid that he might escape from a wolf's den into a tiger's cave. "Let me think about it."

…

Chen Ge left the Third Sick Hall at 1 am. He turned back to look. If everything was fine, this would be the last time that he visited the place. Returning to New Century Park, Chen Ge arranged all the information on the underground morgue.

"Be careful of red corridors, and be extremely quiet inside them.

"There are only seven morgues—do not enter the 8th morgue."

He memorized all the details before going to bed. The park opened at 9 am. At almost the same time, Zhang Li sent the map to Chen Ge. There were ten pictures and two one-minute videos. Did the man really think I'm a police informant?

Since Doctor Gao was not in Jiujiang, Chen Ge planned to activate the Trial Mission in the underground morgue that night. He sent the visitors into the scenario and sat down to study the pictures. The underground morgue was large, and it had been updated thrice. The first expansion's date and blueprint could not be found anymore, the second expansion was when the two medical schools at Jiujiang joined together, and the third expansion was the one Zhang Li was a part of. This place covers the entire western side of the campus. It's so damn big.

The underground morgue could basically be categorized into three parts. The outer perimeter was for various transport corridors and two storerooms as well as five morgues. The middle section was where the abandoned cadaver pools were; this place had been abandoned years ago. Based on what Zhang Li had said, there was a central hub at the deepest part of the morgue. It was recorded on the paper, but no one could find the path that led that way. Zhang Li noted specially that he suspected that something had happened there before, and that was why the paths leading there had been fully sealed.

Chen Ge looked through all the videos and pictures. There was only a map for the outer perimeter; the middle section's map was not there. It had probably been removed by someone already. "The underground morgue's biggest secret should be hiding at the central hub; I need to find the way to get there."

He memorized the map in his heart, and he looked through it for the whole afternoon. Chen Ge worked for the whole day until 6:30 pm. After Xu Wan and Gu Feiyu left, Chen Ge locked himself inside the staff breakroom. He took several deep breaths. After making sure he had everything, he took out the black phone.

The underground morgue is the eighth side mission to the four-star School of the Afterlife. After completing this, I have the right to unlock the four-star mission.

Sitting next to the table, Chen Ge's finger danced over the screen before he pressed on that mission.

"Do you accept the 8th side mission for School of the Afterlife?"

"Yes!"

"Side Mission 8: Eternal Life (In an undisclosed underground morgue, there's a group who seek eternal life).

"Mission Location: Western Jiujiang Medical University.

"Mission Hint: Life's meaning is not whether you can breathe or not but something else.

"Mission Requirement: Enter the underground morgue's central hub before midnight and survive until dawn!"

Based on the information on the black phone, Chen Ge's expression was dark. If I need to get into the central hub before midnight, I'll need to get moving now.

Chen Ge's eyes focused on the last few words. This kind of requirement that needs me to survive until dawn normally means a hard mission. Thankfully, I'm fully prepared.

Picking up the backpack, Chen Ge exited the room. Like his visit to the Coffin Village, he planned to take all the employees with him.

Even without fighting power, at least they will be able to fill up the numbers.

Pen Spirit, Xiaoxiao, Xu Yin, the hammer—Chen Ge poured everything that he could think of into his back, and when the white cat was not paying attention, he also picked it up.

Have I forgotten something? Right, there's still that statue in the underground scenario.
