My Healing Games

Chapter 681 The First Deep World Administrator

Han Fei never considered himself a good person; he only sought to act in a way that was clear in his conscience.

Upon seeing someone about to jump off a building at school, he went over without hesitation to dissuade them, and this spontaneous act of kindness brought him unexpected rewards.

Standing next to the girl, Han Fei rattled off various "professional terms" related to the resurrection ritual, leaving the somewhat schizophrenic girl bewildered.

“I know you hate those people and want to kill them, but if you listen to the black avatar, you will not only fail to hurt them, but you will also sink into deeper pain.”

Compared to the black avatar, Han Fei is more like a demon crawling out of the abyss.

He was gentle and refined, quite handsome for the city, possessed an extraordinary air about him, and had a voice that held a special magic, every word of which touched the heart.

Compared to Han Fei, the mysterious figure with the black head who dared not show his face seemed rather sleazy and sinister. One was like a black butler riding a fine horse, while the other looked like a stinking rat hiding in the city's sewers.

Perhaps it was because of his profession as an actor, but Han Fei discovered that he seemed to be particularly good at persuading others during his interactions with girls, especially when dealing with female ghosts and children.

Knowing that the girl didn't want to stay at school any longer, he offered to lead her away without disturbing the teachers and other students.

Han Fei did this to prevent himself from being discovered by others, but in the girl's eyes, it meant that the man in front of her truly respected her ideas.

As for whether Han Fei would harm her, she didn't seem to have considered it. After all, Han Fei was the first person to rush over to save her when things were so dangerous just now.

The two quietly left the teaching building. Han Fei avoided the surveillance cameras, climbed over the wall, grabbed the girl's hand, and led her out of the school.

"Where do you live? I'd like to have a good talk with your mother."

The girl had mentioned the paper doll's heart before, and the red string's reaction might be because the paper doll's heart was used in the girl's resurrection ritual.

"My mother only comes out at night. If you really want to see her, you can stay at my house for the night." There was no malice in the girl's words, but Han Fei felt that her eyes changed when she said this. For a moment, it seemed that two different gazes appeared in her eyes.

As the sun was about to set, Han Fei led the girl to meet up with Li Guo'er first, and then they walked together towards the residential area on the edge of the city.

The houses built on the outermost edge of the city are dilapidated, as if they have been abandoned by the times. As large areas of buildings are abandoned, many have gradually become dens for homeless people and animals.

After navigating through a series of alleyways, Han Fei and his companions finally arrived at the girl's house before the sun had completely set.

Before me lay a nearly abandoned neighborhood. Moss covered the walls, the railings were rusty, the roads were full of potholes, and even the name of the neighborhood was badly faded and could only be seen clearly when I got closer.

"The New Shanghai Amusement Park residential compound?" Han Fei found it a bit strange. "The amusement park is located at the edge of the city. Why would they build the amusement park residential compound so far away from the amusement park?"

"The houses in this residential compound were specifically allocated to the park's builders. They made great contributions to the park, and most of them are park employees." The girl arrived at the entrance of the compound. An old man was sitting in front of the almost abandoned guardhouse. The old man seemed to have severe cataracts, with only the whites of his eyes showing. One of his ears had been burned off, and he was lame in one leg.

“Uncle Li was one of the builders of the amusement park. He later received a free house.” The girl pointed to the old man, whose sacrifices for building the amusement park were beyond what most people could imagine.

"You call him Uncle Li? I feel like he's old enough to be your grandfather." Han Fei, who was currently wanted by the police, tried to walk past the old man, but the old man sitting at the gate didn't react at all: "Uncle Li? Can you hear me?"

Han Fei stood beside the old man for a while before the man slowly raised his head. He pointed to his only remaining ear and opened his mouth, saying, "Don't shout so loudly, I can hear you. The sun is about to set, and I'm about to close up shop. You should go home now."

"Did you work at the amusement park before? Are your injuries considered work-related injuries?" Li Guo'er also found it strange; how could someone working at an amusement park get injured like this?

The old man smiled, then glanced at the girl beside him: "Don't get involved with that amusement park, people will die."

"Do you know what happened in the amusement park?" Han Fei had just opened his mouth to ask when the girl interrupted him.

“The amusement park wasn’t like that before. My mom worked there.” The girl spoke sometimes gently and sometimes impatiently. Her behavior was a bit like that of a rag doll filled with multiple hatreds, as if several personalities lived inside her: “The amusement park used to be a real amusement park. My mom would come home from get off work every day with a smile on her face. But one day, she became different. She was always complaining and getting angry, and she never smiled again.”

"The Paradise is the core of this city, maintaining a certain order. Since the Paradise has changed, it means that the original order is beginning to collapse." Han Fei felt that all of this was a kind of reflection. If this city is regarded as a microcosm of the world, the Paradise, the Deep World, the believers in ghosts, the ghost killers, and the increasing number of deranged madmen can all find corresponding counterparts.

“I don’t understand those big principles. I only know that the amusement park has forever taken away my mother’s smile and shrouded our whole family in pain.”

"Can a paradise steal a person's smile?" The place that should have created happiness has become a place that deprives people of happiness. This reminded Han Fei of himself. He had not smiled since he woke up.

"Don't stand outside, go home quickly." The old man's eyes, which were mostly white, rolled upwards, and some black, viscous substance seeped out of his eye sockets, but he seemed completely unaware of it. He waved his hand, telling Han Fei and the others to leave quickly.

“Mom always appears at night. I promised you I would see my mom, so you have to keep your promise.” The girl stomped on an ant on the road and crushed it with the tip of her shoe: “I want them to envy me, to make them like I was before.”

"What did you promise her?" Li Guo'er frowned slightly, sensing that the girl Han Fei had saved was not a good person.

Han Fei shook his head slightly and followed the girl into the stairwell.

This residential complex was originally built for the park's staff as a perk, but walking inside it feels eerie, like entering the underworld.

There were bloodstains on the old steps that hadn't been wiped clean, and the corpses of some small animals could still be seen. Various kinds of debris were also piled up haphazardly in the stairwell.

"You'd better stick close to me, the buildings in the community are interconnected, like a maze." The girl turned around and reminded them. This community was built very differently from normal communities. It did not prioritize the comfort of its residents, but rather aimed to highlight the "entertainment" aspect of the amusement park.

Each residential building is a different height, and they are connected by long gray corridors, much like a giant octopus crawling out of the sea in a nightmare—ugly, bizarre, and unsettling to look at.

Just as the group reached the second floor, the door of a residential building near the corridor suddenly opened, and an elderly woman with a full head of silver hair walked out of the house.

She leaned on her cane, trembling as if she might fall at any moment.

The girl consciously stepped aside and quietly waited for the old man to pass.

"Are you new here?" The old lady seemed to have been indoors for a long time. Even in the dim evening sunlight, she was still a little uncomfortable. She shielded her eyes with her free hand: "You'd better leave before it gets dark. Once it gets dark, you won't be able to leave."

"Grandma, are you a resident here? Has anything happened in this neighborhood?" Han Fei didn't let anyone slip by and immediately asked.

"So much has happened. The happier I was before, the more desperate I am now. All the mistakes made by desires need to be paid for." The old woman took a large bag of garbage from inside the house and placed it at the door.

The garbage bag reeked of a foul stench and was stuffed with all sorts of rotten things.

"Don't talk to her too much. Most people in this neighborhood have some kind of problem. Those who are able-bodied and without problems have already moved away." The girl grabbed Han Fei's wrist and pulled him forward.

When the three adults walked past the old lady's door, nothing unexpected happened. But as Fu Tian passed by, the half-closed security door was suddenly opened!

A thin, age-spotted arm suddenly stretched out!

Five skinny, bony fingers grabbed Fu Tian's shoulder, and he tried to drag him into the room like a madman.

"What do you want to do?" Li Guo'er reacted quickly, using her body to block the door and Fu Tian. She gripped the knife hidden in her clothes and stared at the old lady in the room.

"I'm saving him! How can such a young child go to his death with you!" The old woman's wrinkled face trembled. "You've encountered the most unfortunate girl in the world; you'll all die!"

"Ignore her! She's just a crazy old woman!" The girl pulled Han Fei forward. As she refuted the old woman's words, her voice changed, becoming even shrill and shrill.

"Let go." Li Guo'er stared at the old lady, whose eyes were full of regret and pity. She finally let go of Fu Tian and closed the security door again.

The sound of chains sliding could be heard. The old lady had added several more large locks inside the house to make sure no one could enter her home through this door.

Fu Tian was also startled. He clutched his shoulder, looking somewhat aggrieved. He missed his mother.

"A real man shouldn't be scared by something like this." Han Fei turned around and glanced at Fu Tian: "Come here, you follow behind me."

Fu Tian walked to Han Fei's side and looked at Han Fei's tall figure. For some reason, he felt a sense of security he had never felt before, as if this man had protected him like this a long time ago.

After walking through the corridor, the group arrived at the door of room 404 on the fourth floor of building number four.

"We're here, this is my home." The girl knocked loudly on the door: "Open the door, open the door quickly! You're so slow!"

Footsteps were heard inside the house, and a moment later, the security door was opened.

To Han Fei's surprise, a little girl of seven or eight years old opened the door for them. The child was very afraid of the female students outside. She stared timidly at the group, her thin body pressed against the shoe cabinet.

"Didn't you see we have guests? What can you do besides play the victim in front of my dad?" The female student got angrier and angrier, reaching out to grab the girl's ear. The girl, frightened, quickly ran into the kitchen: "Are you going to tell on me again! You're such a bastard!"

Han Fei, who was standing nearby, witnessed everything. He was increasingly unable to understand the female student's temperament. Her emotions were extremely volatile, and once provoked, she was completely unable to control herself.

"Yan Le? Aren't you living at school? Why did you sneak back again?" A man walked out of the kitchen. He had strange, maze-like patterns tattooed on his body. As if he was worried that the patterns would be exposed, most of his body was burned by fire, and his tattoos were covered with scars.

“Only my mother loves me in this world; my father has become someone else’s father.” The female student, known as Yan Le, said to Han Fei. She completely ignored the man and sat down on the living room sofa: “This is also my home. I can come back whenever I want.”

"Nonsense! I paid your accommodation fees and begged the school so many times before they finally agreed to let you go back! Are you trying to drive me crazy?"

"I've already died once, so dying again won't make a difference." The female student picked up the fruit knife on the table: "You don't care whether the knife pierced my body or not, all you care about is that it doesn't pierce that bastard's body."

"You and Yan Xi are both my children, you..."

"Stop spouting that hypocritical nonsense. It was Mom who saved me. You've never cared about me. Even if I died, you wouldn't be sad." Yan Le picked up a fruit knife and walked towards the kitchen, but the man quickly stopped her and took the knife away.

"It's okay if you don't want to go to school, I'll take you to see a doctor tomorrow!"

"You have no right to make decisions for me! I'm not sick!" Yan Le tried to grab the knife again, but this time the man used force and pushed Yan Le onto the sofa.

The father and daughter clashed as soon as they met. Yan Le, whose mental state was clearly abnormal, fought with the man. After Han Fei pulled her away, she ran into the bedroom and locked herself in.

"I'm sorry, you must have seen this." The man touched the wound on his arm where Yan Le had scratched him and sighed softly, "If I hadn't taken her to the amusement park back then, none of this would have happened."

“Your daughter’s condition is quite dangerous right now.” Han Fei asked Li Guo’er to take Fu Tian to play with the little girl, while he and the man sat on the sofa. “I found something terrifying on your child’s phone. A stranger with a black profile picture has been sending messages to your child, leading her into deeper despair. I suspect that your child’s refusal to accept treatment is related to that guy.”

"A black profile picture?" The man's expression turned grim. He took out his phone and showed Han Fei his social media account: "Is it the same as this profile picture?"

The moment Han Fei saw the account's profile picture, he had already grasped the hand of companionship, and the next moment he might draw his sword.

"No, no, no! How could I possibly harm my own daughter?" The man waved his hands repeatedly, pointing to the maze tattoo on his body that had been burned off: "All the park managers use this image."
