Thriller Zone: From the Mental Hospital to the Ghostly World

Chapter 344 Du Muyu Disappears

These words struck the two of them like a thunderbolt!

"...left?"

Fei'er's face immediately turned ashen, as if her soul had been ripped from the top of her head.

"Let's go to the hospital first!" Chen Ji forced himself to calm down: "Call Du Tingfeng, I'll go get a taxi."

Two seconds later, Fei'er nodded blankly, opened her teddy bear bag, her hands trembling uncontrollably, and scattered the trinkets inside all over the floor.

Donkey statue, rubber band, tail feathers...

Bang!

Her phone slipped from her hand and fell to the ground.

Inside the transparent phone case was a Polaroid photo of him and Du Muyu.

Chen Ji's breath almost stopped.

The phone was grabbed.

"beep......"

"beep......"

"Sorry, the number you dialed is—"

Fei'er tapped her phone hard and hung up.

Just then, the door to the Du family's house was suddenly pushed open.

A blond-haired young man walked in looking exhausted, carrying a stack of papers in his hand.

"Six sons!"

Chen Ji suddenly remembered that Liu Zi had already arrived in Tianhai before they entered the domain.

"Are you back?"

Liu Zi paused for a moment, seemingly relieved, and then withdrew his foot that had just stepped into the house.

"Let's go." His voice was stern. "Get in the car, I'll take you to the hospital."

A few minutes later, the black sports car sped out of the villa area like the wind.

Chen Ji stared at the paper that he had just handed over.

【Search notices】

Du Muyu, female, 1.68 meters tall.

[She went missing on the afternoon of April 5th at Shengyou Hospital in Tianhai City and her whereabouts remain unknown.]

[She was wearing a plain white hospital gown and was barefoot when she went missing.]

A generous reward will be given to anyone who provides clues!

Below is a photo of Du Muyu.

"Gone... So it really is 'gone,' not what I meant." Chen Ji secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Liu Zi, what exactly happened?"

"I asked in a hoarse voice. It was clear that she hadn't completely recovered from the intense emotions she had just experienced," Phil asked.

"..."

Liu Zi stared at the dense traffic ahead, remained silent for a few seconds, and then said, "You guys said in the group that not long after entering the domain, I received a call from Du."

He said the hospital told him that his sister had left the hospital without a word.

"I left without taking anything with me—my ID card, wallet, and even my shoes!"

“It’s been almost 24 hours, and she hasn’t gone home at all. Nobody knows where Sister Yu went.”

“But…” Liu Zi’s expression was strange.

"The doctor said that she was in very poor condition the morning she left, and it was impossible for her to get out of bed. So how could she have left the hospital alone?"

After he finished speaking, everyone present fell silent.

After a while, the car suddenly braked sharply, almost rear-ending the car in front!

".....Feel sorry."

Liu Zi shook his head irritably: "I was daydreaming."

"I keep thinking about what I saw on Christmas Day."

“Me too,” Fei’er murmured from the back row.

Chen Ji didn't say anything, because he felt the same way.

Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered something and immediately murmured, "Pen."

"Didn't you go to the hospital with me? Did you notice anything unusual?"

He hadn't expected an answer, but the pen replied quickly:

What do you mean?

"Does she have any traces of ghosts on her?"

I don't know what you're talking about.

Didn't she die a long time ago?

Chen Ji's pupils suddenly contracted!

"What do you mean?"

[Literally, she should have died long ago.]

Should.....

Chen Ji caught the meaning of that word: "That means she's not dead yet."

[It’s hard to say]

That's basically it.

You might think that since she's breathing, she's still alive, but to me, she's no different from a pile of skeletons.

The pen mumbled a few more times, its words muffled.

“…”

Chen Ji discovered another drawback of the upgraded system.

When writing, everything is crystal clear, but after the fountain pen started talking, sometimes the sound is muffled and unclear, whether intentionally or not.

He stopped communicating with the pen and turned to look at Liu Zi:

"What are Du Tingfeng's bargaining chips like now?"

"It's back to normal."

Liu Zi said, "It was like a bug before, I don't know what happened."

"Let's put that aside for now. I've always had this thought: do you think Sister Yu might be possessed by a ghost?"

If one person notices that her face has changed, it might be an illusion, but if three people see it, then it's a fact.

"The key question is, how did she come into contact with the ghost?"

Chen Ji pointed out the problem: "She is not an intruder, her work is normal, and it is obvious that she only changed after she fell ill."

“That must be related to her tumor,” Liu Zi said. “But isn’t that a congenital disease?”

Chen Ji nodded.

Du Muyu had been suffering from headaches ever since Du Tingfeng could remember.

"We should start by investigating her childhood."

“Sister Yu and Du Tingfeng lived in an orphanage when they were young, and there may be records of her earliest medical conditions there.”

“The orphanage…” Fei’er’s face tightened: “Could the orphanage be doing human modification?”

She remembered a horror novel she had read before, in which orphanages abused children, causing them to turn into ghosts.

Moreover, in reality, companies do indeed reform people.

"Really?" Even Liu Zi found it hard to accept: "Back then it was the 21st century, and the government's regulations were still very strict."

"No." Chen Ji shook his head: "Sister Yu told me that the dean treats her very well."

Dean....

Speaking of this, he thought of Du Muyu's dream again.

The siblings were walking alone in a dark alley when the hospital director finally rescued them.

However, if we can't find it anywhere, we'll eventually have to go to the welfare home.

The parents of the Du siblings are also a mystery.

There's also something from the past.

[And that apocalypse that could come at any time]

"..." Chen Ji's veins throbbed; the pen had very inopportunely brought him a fact:

You still have a lot to do.

【Oh】

[Forgot to mention]

You still need to look for the Tuotuoshan Tomb.

Chen Ji said he remembered everything, and that the reminder was good; he asked that the reminder not be given again.

In the blink of an eye, the black sports car had stopped in front of St. Paul's Hospital.

The three rushed to the ward. At the same time, Chen Ji called Chen Yuetan to tell him that he had left the domain and what had happened with the Du family.

Chen Yuetan happened to be in the Thirteenth Bureau. Upon hearing this, he immediately asked Tian Qinghe to investigate, while also telling Chen Ji about another matter.

"Yang Yu brought a few people who want to meet with you."

He asked, "What do you think?"

"who is it?"

"One Yang and two Yin. Including Yang Yu, there are four people in total, not from the Zeng faction."

Can I refuse?

"Of course." Chen Yuetan chuckled briefly. "I've already turned them down for you in advance."

"It just so happens that I mentioned you've entered the domain."

Chen Ji strode quickly through the hospital corridor. "What did they say?"

"They—hmm? Speak of the devil, and he appears. One of the directors, Yin, called me. Wait a moment."

There was silence on the other end.

after awhile.

Chen Yuetan's voice rang out again.

"Chen Ji".

"Did you see a child named Wei Gu in the last domain?"
