Chapter 245: Deterioration
At this moment, hearing the policewoman’s reminder to everyone, Chu Jiang also nodded. He was feeling his way forward and said, "This room must have a problem, Deng Xiaodao, you are also a Ghost Master, what do you think?"
Deng Xiaodao is a thin man, and Chu Jiang wanted to ask him a question without leaving any trace, to test his mental state and see if he is influenced by supernatural powers.
If the thin man’s answer doesn’t make sense or if he doesn’t answer at all, then there must be something wrong with him.
……
In the thin man’s opinion, although Chu Jiang’s attitude and tone of questioning were not very good, he didn’t want to offend him since he was the boss.
But then the thin man thought again, what if the other person really is being influenced by ghosts?
So the thin man answered seriously, "There is indeed a problem. Let’s not talk about the bald guy, Captain Chu, it seems like there is a little bit of an issue with your emotions as well. Haven’t you noticed it yourself?"
Unexpectedly, Chu Jiang sneered, "I think the one with the problem is you, right? Trying to shift the blame? You, this guy, are nothing but a waste, yet you dare to play mind games with me here?"
"If you have the guts, don’t seek my protection like a dog. Why don’t you go forward alone?"
The thin man was angered by Chu Jiang’s words, his face turning pale and then red. Although he didn’t have a prominent reputation in the paranormal circle, he considered himself as not being a second-rate Ghost Master.
Because there was a special ghost on him, this means that under certain conditions, he can fully borrow the power of that ghost without worrying about the ghost reviving on himself.
But this person with the last name Chu, surprisingly looked down on him so much, even humiliated him with words.
"Captain Chu, please pay attention to your tone! Also, your behavior is not normal, I suggest you stop immediately and check your own condition."
"If this continues, you may lead our team to a dead end."
……
When the bald guy heard Chu Jiang mocking the skinny guy, he was also sarcastic towards himself, which made him very angry.
"Mr. Chu, just because you have some ability doesn’t mean you can boss us around and make fun of us."
"If worse comes to worst, we’ll just go our separate ways. I’ll go with this Mr. Zheng."
……
The students and the policewoman saw that the situation was getting out of control, so they immediately tried to calm things down. But their words only made the conflict between the two sides worse.
To the bald man and the skinny man, it seemed like both of these people were taking Chu Jiang’s side and no longer being fair.
"There’s something wrong with them, all of them!" The skinny man also realized that something was off. "Tiger, come over to my side. It’s like each of them has been influenced by the supernatural presence in this room. They’re treating us like enemies now."
Upon hearing this, the bald man immediately moved closer to the skinny man’s side.
……
The shop assistant was taken aback when she saw the conflict between the two sides escalate quickly after Chu Jiang spoke up.
Are these people crazy? How could they argue about this? Could it be true, like the policewoman said, that they have all been influenced by some ghost in room number 3?
The firefighter didn’t say anything but silently positioned himself on Chu Jiang’s side, showing his stance.
……
Chu Jiang had to stop walking. The situation inside the group was getting worse quickly. If they continued like this and were attacked by the ghost hiding in Room 3, there would immediately be dead people.
"Everyone, please stop arguing and listen to me!" Chu Jiang frowned and shouted, hoping to make everyone stay calm.
But it seemed like his words caused an even bigger misunderstanding.
The bald guy and the skinny man quickly distanced themselves, as if saying, "Even though we may not win, we won’t just wait to be killed if you want to murder someone."
This made Chu Jiang realize the difficulty of the situation. The ghost in this room hadn’t even made a move yet, but it already had this effect. What would happen if it actually attacked?
Moreover, Chu Jiang also noticed that no matter what he said or did, in the eyes of these two people, it would be twisted into malicious intent.
Of course, in Chu Jiang’s eyes, the behavior of these two individuals was equally bad, almost forcing him to take action.
As for the other four people, the shop assistant remained neutral, while the student, policewoman, and firefighter seemed to be on his side.
Honestly, if these two guys on the other side couldn’t recover, Chu Jiang wouldn’t mind getting rid of them.
But the problem is, getting rid of them won’t solve the problem. What if more people turn against us?
The students, policewomen, and firefighters all trust Chu Jiang a lot, so Chu Jiang can’t hurt them.
Finally, this group of people can’t just stand here. It’s dangerous to stay in the room for too long, and their perception might be further distorted.
Thinking quickly, Chu Jiang looked at the students and said, "Stay silent."
The students hesitated for a moment, but still obeyed Chu Jiang’s words. They used the power of the cards in their hands to make everyone unable to hear any sound.
As soon as Chu Jiang’s group took action, the thin man and the bald guy also immediately used their own supernatural powers.
However, what they didn’t expect was that Chu Jiang walked towards Room 4 without even looking back.
Chu Jiang was conducting an experiment. If he turned his back to them and walked towards the destination, would these two people attack?
If they attacked, Chu Jiang wouldn’t show any mercy.
But if they still have a little bit of reason, or if Chu Jiang’s departure is not imagined as an attack by them, then it shows that they can still be saved.
As soon as Chu Jiang left, a few others quickly followed.
The bald guy looked at the skinny man, wanting to speak, but frustratingly discovered that he had no voice no matter what he tried to say.
At this moment, the skinny man calmed down for a moment. He had experienced many supernatural events before. If Chu Jiang was really being influenced by the ghost and was going to harm them, why leave them with a back view?
The ghost in this room may not be as simple as he imagined.
So the skinny man waved his hand, signaling the bald guy to follow.
Seeing the skinny man catch up with the group, the bald guy felt abandoned for a moment. But he was all alone and had no choice but to follow.
……
Surprisingly, the following journey went smoothly, as if this Room 3 murder pattern was just like this.
As long as the people in the group don’t actually start fighting and there is no bloody conflict, then everything will be fine.
Of course, maybe it has something to do with not staying with them long enough. If they stay here for a long time, then in the end, there really won’t be anyone they can trust.
Arriving at the door of Room 4, the student used his eyes to signal to Chu Jiang, indicating that he wants to open the door.
Chu Jiang, the policewoman, and the thin man opened the door in front. After that, there are still four doors to open, so each person takes turns.
Since there wasn’t much danger ahead, Chu Jiang nodded in agreement.
The student approached with the appropriate caution, intending to immediately step back after opening the door.
But just as his hand touched the door handle, a rotting hand pierced through his chest and back, forcefully grabbing his heart and crushing it to pieces!
