My Healing Games

Chapter 741 Building a City of Strange Tales
"Why did I receive two suicide notes with completely contradictory meanings? Besides Fu Tian, ​​who else knows everything we once shared?"

The old woman's mind conjured up the image of Han Fei: "I think I've really forgotten someone, someone who looks a lot like him, someone who also once ran alone into the darkness..."

While the other senior executives were still discussing countermeasures, Du Jing quietly got up. Without disturbing the company's powerful managers, she took the elevator downstairs.

Stepping out of the city's giant screen, the old woman looked at the crowd outside the building, but she couldn't find Han Fei, who had left in a hurry.

"Han Fei, what a familiar name. I've heard my mother mention it so many times in my dreams..."

……

At 11 p.m., Han Fei returned to his rented apartment under police escort. Since the incident, the police had begun to protect him more closely, and everyone felt that Butterfly was about to make a move against Han Fei again.

After exchanging clothes with the police officer who remained in the room, Han Fei escorted the guard out of his room.

After closing the door, Han Fei's expression remained largely unchanged. He went to the bathroom, turned on the tap, and while washing his face, observed the entire room through the mirror on the wall.

Han Fei possessed an extraordinary memory that allowed him to remember everything he saw. He made many small marks in the room, which would surely be destroyed if the room was disturbed.

“The police didn’t search my room; they really trusted me.”

Wiping the water off his face, Han Fei began to walk around the room again, carefully checking every inch of the room to see if any listening devices or miniature surveillance cameras had been installed.

It took Han Fei a full half hour to finally feel completely at ease. His expression relaxed, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

Today was arguably the most dangerous day. He almost gave himself away in the Deep Space Technology building. The pain of craniotomy is something not everyone can endure.

"The black box is my biggest secret, and I absolutely cannot let anyone know about it."

With the tension finally released, exhaustion appeared in Han Fei's eyes. He opened the refrigerator and began to eat voraciously.

After a hearty meal and drinks, he lay down in the gaming pod.

There are still a lot of things to deal with in the deeper world. In addition, he needs to send Bai Xian back to the shallow world as soon as possible. In order to perfectly recreate Han Fei's temperament, Bai Xian did not hesitate to harm himself. This dedication made Han Fei feel that the film festival owed Bai Xian an award for Best Actor.

After connecting all the cables, Han Fei put on the helmet connected in the game.

Everything in his field of vision was stained red with blood. Han Fei felt that the blood-soaked figure standing behind him seemed even weaker. He wanted to turn around to look, but each time he was about to see the other's face, the game login was successful.

Opening his eyes, Han Fei appeared at the place where he had logged off. The dog, clutching the spirit altar, was like a loyal dog waiting for its master, always waiting for Han Fei to return.

"What's the situation on the other side of the passage?"

This question was probably too complicated for the child to answer, so he took Han Fei's hand and walked outside.

Seeing him cry so anxiously, Han Fei thought something terrible had happened and ran all the way.

The central platform of the park has shattered, all the fragments of the shrines have been moved into the maze, and the colorful butterfly phantoms that once filled the sky have disappeared. The will of dreams seems to have been frightened and has temporarily retreated.

"Is this a maze?"

Han Fei stared at the enormous pit, hardly believing his eyes. When he left, the pit was a nightmare, with all the buildings destroyed. But in just one day, a new labyrinth was taking shape within it, and some of the buildings had been repaired.

Upon hearing Han Fei's voice, boundless curses surged from the darkness, coalescing into the figure of a woman.

Behind Xu Qin, residents of Xingfu Community and the dead building climbed out of the pit one after another, including Bai Xian, who was pale and had extensive ulceration on his body.

"Take him away first." Wei Youfu quietly approached Han Fei and whispered, "Your friend is really loyal. In order to perfectly recreate your temperament, he had Xu Qin pierce the curse under his skin and even cut a lot of scars on his own body."

Han Fei quickly ran to Bai Xian: "Brother Bai, if it weren't for you this time, I might have become the enemy of all the players in the world."

“It’s not just a possibility, you’re already a public enemy who has slaughtered 100,000 players.” Bai Xian handed the beast-face mask to Han Fei: “You absolutely mustn’t wear this mask carelessly. I feel like all those players are now determined to kill the owner of this mask. It has become a symbol, representing evil, devils, despair, and all bad things.”

"It shouldn't be that serious, right?"

"You really have no self-awareness! But we're both playing games, and you managed to turn yourself into the ultimate villain in a heartwarming and healing game, I have to admire you." Bai Xian's words were a little slurred: "Don't ask me for this kind of thing again, I'm too timid to handle it!"

"You've worked hard, Brother Bai. But to be honest, I feel that your acting skills have reached a new level in those few short minutes." Han Fei gently patted Bai Xian's shoulder: "You are now definitely a rare master actor."

"Really? Then I should be able to challenge for the Best Actor award next year." Even now, Bai Xiandu still can't forget about the Best Actor award.

“Absolutely no problem.” Han Fei helped Bai Xian walk towards the room next door. He was preparing to use his Soul Return talent to send Bai Xian away: “Brother Bai, push open this door and you can go back.”

"Is it that simple?" Grasping the doorknob, Bai Xian seemed to suddenly remember something. He turned to Han Fei and said, "Um... Han Fei, could I ask you for a favor as well?"

"You said."

"Could you please not participate in the Best Actor award next year? It's a complicated process. Let me try for another year."

"Don't worry, I won't participate in the Best Actor competition until you win it." Han Fei patted Bai Xian on the shoulder, and before the other could react, he used his Soul Return talent to send him back to the shallow world.

Looking at the empty room, Han Fei sighed, "It turns out that all the luck I accumulated in the first half of my life was used up on meeting you guys, my good brothers."

Stepping out of the small house, Han Fei, accompanied by his neighbors, entered the passage for the first time.

For some reason, he couldn't log into the game using a normal game pod, but through this passage, it seemed he could also travel to the shallow world.

"If I go there, will people think I'm a ghost?"

The deeper Han Fei went into the passage, the more he felt that it was extraordinary; it truly seemed to possess life and its own consciousness.

The walls creaked slightly, emitting a faint smell of blood. This passage was even growing and repairing itself, striving to shorten the distance between the deep world and the shallow world.

“We’ve been here before. To build a passage connecting the deep world and the shallow world, we first need an unspeakable corpse.” Wei Youfu stroked the passage wall. “It’s just like the scene we saw in Fu Sheng’s memory shrine. The passage under Paradise extends from the heart of the first ghost.”

"Why can an unspeakable corpse connect two worlds?"

“I don’t know either.” Wei Youfu shook his head with a wry smile: “That’s something we don’t even dare to mention normally. Perhaps when one of us becomes the Unspeakable, all the mysteries will be cleared up.”

"Then you guys should also put in some effort." Han Fei really enjoyed talking to Wei Youfu. He could sense the changes in Youfu's emotions; the other man was slowly rediscovering his lost humanity and feelings.

"The old building manager and his three children are all unspeakable, but unfortunately, after the four of them entered the inner area of ​​the deep world, only the youngest one, Ge Sheng, escaped back. The enemy we are facing is truly terrifying." Wei Youfu could not be optimistic. After witnessing the terrifying abilities of the unspeakable, he had been worried for the past few days.

"take it easy."

“I’m afraid we can’t slow down any longer. Meng already knows we’re here, and its true form could come at any moment. We have to be prepared to deal with it.” Wei Youfu touched his chest, where the other victims of the human body puzzle were hidden inside his body. “I’m now certain that Meng is also looking for Xiao Ba. I have to protect that child.”

Accompanied by numerous ghosts and monsters, Han Fei ventured deeper into the passage. When he was halfway there, a system notification sounded in his mind.

"Attention Player 0000! Continuing forward will have unknown consequences! Please choose carefully!"

Han Fei stopped and frowned slightly: "Can't we go through?"

"You can't get through either?" Wei Youfu was somewhat surprised. They couldn't go any further because they were ghosts from the deep world, while Han Fei was a living person!
"What do you mean? Residents of the Deep World can't use this loophole to enter the Shallow World?"

“All the ghosts seem to be bound by some kind of power. You can pass through, but you will pay a very high price.” Xu Qin reached out and pressed her hand against the wall. The curses on her fingertips surged into the passage like waves, but ninety percent of those curses slowly disappeared after entering the passage on the shallower side of the world: “I was originally considering whether to possess someone’s body and leave in this way.”

"If that's the case, then it's alright."

"Don't be too happy yet. As the passage slowly grows, the constraints of the deeper world on ghosts will become weaker and weaker. Perhaps before long, ghosts will be able to move freely through the passage."

“A little buffer time is enough.” Han Fei needs to rest now and doesn’t want to cause any more chaos: “I brought out more than 10,000 souls from Fu Sheng’s memory shrine. I want to build a city where humans and ghosts coexist with them. After the city is built, we can slowly let in some ‘lucky’ players and try to guide the hope and happiness of the shallow world into the deep world.”

After completing Fu Sheng's shrine inheritance mission, Han Fei received a large number of mission rewards, which he has not yet had time to use.

“We now have three areas: the amusement park, the plastic surgery hospital, and the dead building. It should be more than enough to build a small city.” Wei Youfu also agreed with Han Fei’s idea: “However, it would be better if we discussed it with the other hatred, especially that clown. I have no way of figuring out his thoughts, and I still can’t be sure if he is willing to help us.”

The group returned to the ground, but after searching the entire park, they couldn't find the painter or the clown.

"Forget it, let's leave them for now." Han Fei walked up to the high platform and glanced at the souls he had brought out of the shrine. Many of them were still unaware that they were dead, their memories still stuck at the moment when the flower of life bloomed brilliantly.

“Youyi, Xiao Jia, Uncle Ying…”

Familiar faces appeared before Han Fei's eyes. Those special citizens protected by ghosts and monsters were basically souls that Fu Sheng had specially protected. They were kind and brave, the sparks of resistance in the midst of disaster, and the banners of humanity.

"With them around, I should be able to build the city of my dreams."
