He checked the balance in his citizen account again and again. When he bought the omelet, he added 2 extra eggs to it.
'I should be getting richer in the future, I shouldn't treat myself too badly, I should reward myself occasionally. I can't die without spending all my money. '
Arriving at Northern Street, Han Fei boarded the crew's bus. As usual, they would be shooting outdoors. If everything went smoothly, he would be done that day.
After getting on the bus, Han Fei found a corner and sat down. He did not like to sit with others.
Closing the curtains, Han Fei was about to take a nap when Director Jiang purposely sat down next to him.
"Han Fei, there's a big event tomorrow, do you want to join?"
"What kind of event?"
"It's a variety show. You'll play some video games and then promote the movie." Director Jiang still hoped that Han Fei would join. "You don't have a company behind you so I think you should make use of this opportunity to show your face. The other side also hopes that you'll join, everyone is curious about what's so special about a Good Samaritan. "
"I think I'll pass, I don't have any films. Many people probably only pay attention to me because I've helped the police catch a criminal. It's better for me to stay out of the limelight." Han Fei leaned against the seat.
"You're such a rare talent among actors. You're about to become famous but you're not arrogant at all." Director Jiang's admiration for Han Fei grew. "After this movie is finished, I believe you'll be very popular. I hope we can work together again."
"Of course."
When they arrived at the location, another busy day began.
Since the script for Twin Flowers was changed halfway through, most of the scenes could not be used. In order to meet the deadline, the entire cast and crew worked overtime. Everyone was working hard together.
At 8 pm, Han Fei's last scene was completed. Zhan Yueyue and Mian Nian were still at work.
With Han Fei's help and encouragement, the two young actors' acting skills improved tremendously but they were still far from Han Fei's level.
According to Director Jiang, the two of them needed to work as hard as they could so that they would not be a burden to the crew.
'Without realizing it, I'm already living the life I once hoped for but my heart is still as calm as an ancient well.'
Han Fei did not attend the wrap party, he left on his own as usual.
He took the public transport back to the old city. He only took a few steps when he heard a gust of wind.
Before he lifted his head, Han Fei subconsciously dodged to the side.
"Pa!"
A meaty flower pot fell right in front of him!
The broken pieces of porcelain cut his fingers, and the loud noise attracted the attention of all the passers-by.
His reflexes honed in the cryptic world saved his life. His face was dark as he stared at the buildings by the roadside.
On the third floor, a couple was arguing, and the child was crying non-stop.
"Coincidence?" Han Fei took out his phone and called Li Xue. "I'm not sure, but it feels like the Butterfly did something to me."
"Go to a crowded place immediately! Take care of yourself! "
After Li Xue got the address, she hurried towards Han Fei's location.
He took out his phone to record the video. Meng Changxi's words appeared in Han Fei's mind. The Butterfly would make use of seemingly unrelated events to kill people.
'The place that I'm staying at is heavily guarded by the police. The butterfly will have a hard time getting to me. If it really wants to kill me, it'll set the trap outside the neighbourhood.'
"This place can't be too far away, and it has to be a place where I have a high probability of going."
"I live a very regular life. Other than filming, I go home to play games, and one of the places I have to pass by is the bus station."
Staring at the arguing couple, Han Fei's eyes were frighteningly cold. "A meaty flower pot falling from the third floor is more than enough to kill a person. Plus, it's not that easy to miss from this height."
10 minutes later, the police arrived. They escorted Han Fei upstairs.
The arguing couple heard a knock on the door. They did not want to open the door but when they heard the police's voice, they immediately obeyed.
"We're currently investigating a serial murder case, I hope you can cooperate with us …"
Half an hour later, the investigation yielded no results. The flower pot was accidentally knocked over by the couple during their argument.
They planted several pots of meaty plants. The plant needed sunlight, so they placed the pots on the balcony.
The husband smoked on the balcony and opened the window. The wife came home from work early and the two got into a scuffle over some trivial matters.
The whole process was not complicated, it was filled with coincidences and Han Fei almost died in the middle of it.
While the police were interrogating the two adults, Han Fei walked around the room. Finally, his eyes landed on the timid child.
There were tear stains on his face but his eyes were clear. The child appeared to be the most innocent person in the room.
'The Butterfly seems to have a weakness for children, be it Little Eight who was kept in captivity or the cold case at Yi Ming Private Academy.' Han Fei walked to Li Xue's side and whispered something into her ear, telling her not to ignore the child.
After that, Han Fei left.
'The Butterfly might have already made its move on me, I need to capture it as soon as possible!'
Every second counted. Han Fei was now out in the open while the Butterfly was still hiding in the dark.
'There should be clues about the Butterfly in the cryptic world. After all, both Happiness Neighbourhood and Yi Ming Private Academy are related to the Butterfly.'
After entering his rented room, Han Fei turned on his computer and ordered a new batch of textbooks — Success, Talent Management, How to Be the Best Teacher in a Child's Heart, The Power of Education …
Han Fei put on the earphones and started to search for information about Yi Ming Private Academy on the internet.
Unlike the human jigsaw case, most of the information about this school had been deleted. Han Fei only managed to find bits and pieces of clues and pictures.
One of the pictures left a deep impression on Han Fei. In the picture, Jing Sheng's grandparents ran to the school with wreaths and paper money. In the end, they were dragged away by the teachers from the school.
'Why is there so little information? It feels like many things have been purposely deleted. '
The case at Yi Ming Private Academy was earlier than the human jigsaw case, so the lack of information was understandable.
'Probably not many people in real life remember that school, the evidence might have already disappeared in the passage of time. But just because we can't find it in real life doesn't mean we can't find it in the cryptic world. There must be a reason why the previous manager purposely marked this location on the map. '
Han Fei could still vaguely remember what the previous manager said. The man kept urging him to explore the place as soon as possible, as if danger was coming.
Initially, Han Fei was confused about this until that night, when the song rang out on the street and all ghosts fled for their lives. He was almost killed by the scary monster.
The monster's power was beyond Han Fei's understanding. With such an enemy around, Han Fei did not feel safe at all. He desperately needed to become stronger.
'Didn't I destroy the world in my previous life? How come there are people who want to kill me both in real life and in the game? '
After that, Han Fei practiced some basic fighting techniques. Then he hugged the gaming helmet and sat on his bed.
After a short rest, Han Fei connected all the wires and put on the gaming helmet.
When the game started, the world before Han Fei's eyes was dyed red. Everywhere was covered in blood.
"Welcome to Perfect Life!"
Opening his eyes, Han Fei first added the 2 skill points he had saved into acting and soul-depth touch.
Then he entered the innermost bedroom to find Wei Youfu.
"Youfu, come with me to Apartment 2. I wish to gather all the tenants at Happiness Neighbourhood."
"Gather them?" Wei Youfu leaned weakly against the wall. He looked so weak that he could not even withstand a gust of wind. "Some of the tenants will lose part of their power after they leave their room, so before we gain their trust, it will be very difficult to gather them. Is there anything important?"
"I have the teacher's id at Yi Ming Private Academy. Now I have a plan. If it's successful, we might be able to take down Yi Ming Private Academy."
"Take down Yi Ming Private Academy?" Wei Youfu's eyes widened. "Didn't we just free the convenience store manager yesterday? Why don't you take a rest tonight? We'll discuss this further. "
"We don't have much time left. Every night is precious to us." Han Fei looked at Wei Youfu seriously. "The children at that school are being harmed by evil spirits. Even if it's to save them, I have to sneak in."
"Are you serious?" Wei Youfu repeated the question. "You do have the teacher's id, you can enter and leave the school freely but have you ever been a teacher?"
"I never planned to be a teacher, my goal is to become the headmaster."
Han Fei took out the teacher's id from his inventory and shared his plan.
