Han Fei tried to place Jin Sheng's exercise book into his inventory. To his surprise, it worked on the first try.
'This child's cursed object is quite unique.'
Han Fei had spent a lot of time reading all the ghost stories left behind by Jin Sheng. He called Ol 'Lee and prepared to head to the office building.
Han Fei rushed out of the classroom but when he reached the corridor, he stopped.
From the education block's window, he could see that the hostel's front door was opened and a man radiating a scary presence was heading towards the education block.
'Ma Manjiang?'
Han Fei knew he did not have much time left. He waved at Ol 'Lee, lowered his body and hurried towards the office building.
'In real life, Jin Sheng's body was found inside his bedroom's cupboard. Does Ma Manjiang know about this? Is that why he's been guarding the hostel? '
Han Fei would never underestimate his opponent, that was one of the reasons he was still alive.
"Ol 'Lee! Don't show your face! Don't look outside! "
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Is there a bad guy at the school? " Even though Ol 'Lee was old, he was still very fit. He crouched next to the wall, dragging the ghosts that covered him.
Even though Ol 'Lee had crouched down, the female ghost behind him was still standing in the corridor. She could not hide.
'Fine, you stay here! Don't let anyone into the last classroom. '
Ol 'Lee was too big of a target, Han Fei had no choice but to head to the education block alone.
He didn't care about anything else. He lowered his body and rushed toward the office building while sticking to the wall.
'Ma Manjiang has been keeping the hostel on lockdown. Now that he's leading the 3 kids out, this means that he's probably searched every corner of the hostel and realized that Jin Sheng might be hiding somewhere else.'
Thinking of this, Han Fei became even more anxious.
'I've already completed one mission and the 3 hours of game time is up. I can quit the game at any time, I'm confident I can take him on.'
Ma Manjiang was fast. When Han Fei looked out the window again, the ghost had already entered the education block.
Yi Ming Private Academy's education block was connected to the office building. Han Fei ran into the office building. To avoid running into the ghost, he hid inside the building's corridor.
The corridor was dark and he might run into something unknown but Han Fei did not have time to hesitate.
He focused his attention on the landlord's ring. If there was even the slightest chill, he would immediately avoid it.
When he arrived at the second floor of the office building, the sound of glass shattering came from the fourth floor of the teaching building.
"Ma Manjiang might have gone to the 4th floor of the education block!"
Han Fei was very worried about Old Li, but he had more important things at the moment.
The school nurse's office was next to the shared corridor between the education block and the office building. Han Fei only needed to cross the corridor to reach it.
The ghost on Ol 'Lee appeared to be fighting with something. Han Fei made use of this opportunity to rush toward the nurse's office.
In his eyes, there was only that door, and his 10 points of stamina pushed him to the limit.
It was getting closer and closer!
Ten meters!
Five meters!
The wind howled, and the smell of blood gradually filled the air.
Three meters!
When he was only two meters away from the door, a bloody ghost face appeared at the entrance of the corridor, dragging a large body made of malice.
"Ma Manjiang!"
Han Fei's eyes were bloodshot. He could not stop within two meters of Ma Manjiang.
Based on Ma Manjiang's large body, he was probably at the same level as Little Eight. Even if Han Fei wanted to run, he would not be able to.
In that split second, many thoughts collided in Han Fei's mind. Instead of slowing down, he picked up speed again.
His twisted face was filled with hatred. The ghost tattoo lit up and Han Fei raised his arm high into the air.
As he rammed into Ma Manjiang, the arm landed heavily on Ma Manjiang's bloody face.
Touching the deepest secrets of the soul!
Endless malice spread out. Despair, greed and lust rushed into Han Fei's mind like a black fog. At the center of the fog, Han Fei saw a dark blue butterfly.
No one had ever dared to do this to Ma Manjiang. His body slowly cracked open like a gaping mouth trying to swallow Han Fei whole.
Han Fei had no other choice. He glanced out of the corner of his eyes at the door of the nurse's office and then logged out of the game!
Blood froze the world and his consciousness left.
Removing the gaming helmet, Han Fei collapsed onto the bed. He gasped for air like he was suffering from asthma.
Holding his pounding heart, he could not calm down no matter how hard he tried.
'There's a blue butterfly inside Ma Manjiang's soul! It looks like some kind of imprint! '
Gulping down a few mouthfuls of cold water, Han Fei collapsed onto the bed. 'What should I do next time I log in? With Ma Manjiang's cunning personality, he'll definitely camp my body. '
'The nurse's office is on my left, it's about one meter away from me. I need to release the paper doll first and kick down the door to enter the room.'
'After I find Jing Sheng, I'll jump down from the window of the nurse's office with him.'
His mind kept replaying the scenario. Even without any interference, Han Fei believed his chance of survival was only 30%.
'This Ma Manjiang sure is difficult to deal with.'
Turning on the computer, Han Fei suppressed his exhaustion and recorded all the ghost stories written by Jing Sheng.
He could not guarantee that he would be able to log out of the game alive the next time he logged in.
Normally, people would write down their last words at this point, lamenting about the impermanence of life.
But Han Fei was different, he had gotten used to this feeling.
He did not write a will, instead, he compiled all the information he knew about Yi Ming Private Academy and sent it along with Jing Sheng's ghost stories to Li Xue.
Han Fei never claimed to be a good person but even at the end of his life, his' will 'was still helping the police.
When Han Fei sent the message to Li Xue, it was already morning.
Unable to hold on any longer, he collapsed onto his bed and fell asleep.
Knowing that he would face death at night, Han Fei could still sleep soundly in the morning. His mental fortitude had been trained to the point where he could not be compared to a normal actor.
He slept until 3 pm. Han Fei switched on his phone. He first replied to Li Xue's questions and then turned to the other unread messages.
By now, Director Jiang was used to Han Fei not answering his phone. He sent Han Fei a few video messages.
When he clicked on them, Director Jiang's excited voice echoed in Han Fei's room.
"Han Fei! This is a golden opportunity! You've rejected Director Zhang's invitation earlier because you can't leave Xin Lu. Now Director Zhang has personally come to Xin Lu to pick out the location! He's going to film the supporting role here! "
"Director Zhang even called me this morning to ask about you. You'd better not reject him again!"
"This is Director Zhang's first time shooting a mystery movie, he's very careful. Every actor has been chosen with utmost care! He really has faith in you. Give me a call when you're free. "
"I've helped you read the script, it's about a mystery novelist with 9 personas! You'll play the most complicated persona, it suits you perfectly! I've already agreed on your behalf! Go to Xin Lu Ya Yi Theatre for the audition at 8 pm! "
"Brother? Why aren't you answering your phone?! You're not going to stand Director Zhang up, are you? I'm putting my life on the line! "
Director Jiang was so anxious in the video that he almost ran over to Han Fei himself.
'9 personas? Mystery novelist? '
A normal actor's dream opportunity was placed before him, it would be a waste if he did not accept it.
After washing up, Han Fei had some food. Seeing as there was still some time, he picked up the book on the table to read.
'What is education? A low-level teacher will only present the truth to his students, a good teacher will help his students discover the truth on their own … '
At 7.50 pm, Han Fei arrived at Xin Lu Ya Yi Theatre. This was his first time at a place like this.
Once he got off the car, Han Fei was recognized by the worker. The worker led him to the backstage.
"Mr. Han, please wait here, I'll be back to deliver the script at 8 pm."
"Script?"
"Director Zhang wants to see who's most suitable for the role so he will provide you with a random part of the script for that role." The worker explained patiently.
"Is there anyone else other than me?" Han Fei raised his brows. "I have something else to do tonight, I can't stay here for too long."
"Many companies heard that Director Zhang is coming to Xin Lu to select actors so they immediately sent their most suitable actors over. It's not our place to reject them but I still think you're the most suitable for the role." The worker was a smooth talker. He opened the door to the waiting room to let Han Fei in.
Since he was already here, Han Fei had no choice. After he entered the waiting room, the room instantly became quiet.
Han Fei was the last to arrive. There were a few young actors standing in the waiting room and Han Fei knew 3 of them.
Ah Cheng who quit the role of Flower of Sin, Wu Li who was nominated for best young actor and Li Tianlan from Secret Urban Romance.
The 3 knew each other. They were chatting happily when Han Fei walked in.
When the three of them saw Han Fei, their expressions became unnatural almost instantly.
The room was silent. Han Fei was used to it so he sat quietly in the corner.
"Why is he here?"
"A new actor with only one film and he wants to ride on Director Zhang's coattails? He's overestimating himself. "
"The role that Ah Cheng gave up was picked up by him. This kid is quite lucky."
"I heard from Ah Cheng that the reason Director Zhang came to Xin Lu to select actors was because of Ah Cheng's acting skills. It was also because of Director Zhang's secret invitation that Ah-Cheng gave up the role in Twin Flowers. "
"No wonder Ah Cheng didn't care about Twin Flower. He gave up on such a popular show because he had a better choice."
"A good bird chooses a good tree to nest in."
The actors in the room whispered among themselves but Han Fei did not mind them at all.
At around eight o 'clock, the worker entered the room with different scripts. "Sorry for the long wait! This is the script that Director Zhang prepared for you. Please stay here and familiarize yourself with the script. When you're ready, you can go for the audition. "
Once he got the script, Han Fei immersed himself in it. He went through it quickly like he had a photographic memory.
After going through it twice, Han Fei placed his script to the side. He closed his eyes and slowly immersed himself in the character.
The others were only halfway through the script. When they noticed Han Fei's expression, they were all confused.
"We're all actors but he sure knows how to act."
"Is he giving up early? He's not even looking at the script anymore. "
Several minutes later, Han Fei opened his eyes. There was a suppressed madness and indescribable loneliness at the bottom of his eyes.
Standing up, Han Fei walked out of the room without even taking the script.
"You're leaving so soon? Is it because you feel pressured when you're with us? "Ah Cheng hated Han Fei. His eyes were filled with disgust.
"We haven't even discussed the order of appearance yet and you're already in such a hurry. That's not a good idea, is it?" The male lead from Secret Urban Romance chimed in. "We're all actors, we should at least show some respect."
"Have you guys misunderstood something?" Han Fei scanned the actors in the waiting room and shook his head. "It's not that I'm looking down on you guys but I'm really in a hurry."
