Chen Ge, out in the hallway, had no idea what had happened inside the room.
He had just investigated the landlord and learned what had happened in Room 304.
Combined with the Black Phone's mission—
[Room of Three] [He came from the Third Ward.]
"Could it be that Wang Haiming once stayed in the Third Ward, and after returning, brought something filthy from the Third Ward to Haiming Apartments, causing this whole chain of events?"
"That thing kept trying to seize control of Wang Haiming's body. Wang Haiming refused to give in and ultimately died here. Now it has affected Men Nan, causing his condition to worsen severely."
Chen Ge climbed through the windowsill into Room 304.
He found many corpses of sparrows and puppies inside.
There were no human corpses, but blood spatter covered the walls. Chen Ge fell silent. Clearly, a horrific murder had taken place in this room as well.
Putting all the clues together—
Chen Ge roughly pieced together what had happened.
"The Fierce Ghost in Men Nan's dreams came from the Third Ward."
"The Black Phone's description of the Third Ward has a red border. Only Zhang Ya has a red border. In other words, there is very likely a Red-Clothed Ghost in the Third Ward."
"If that's the case—"
"Then this ghost is probably not something a Lingering Remnant or the monster in the mirror could compare to!"
Chen Ge tightened his grip on the Skull-Crushing Hammer.
The only things he carried with him were Yin Xiaoxiao's doll and, at best, the white Hakimi hiding in his backpack. The Skull-Crushing Hammer itself posed no threat to a Fierce Ghost.
As for Zhang Ya—
Unless a Fierce Ghost tried to take over Chen Ge's body, Zhang Ya generally would not act so easily.
