Opening his eyes, Han Fei realized he was surrounded by darkness. The smell of disinfectant lingered in the air. There were pills scattered around him.
'Am I inside the infirmary's cupboard?'
Han Fei had seen this before in Jin Sheng's exercise book. He felt around and slowly pushed the cupboard door open.
The dim light fell on Han Fei's face. The world outside the cupboard appeared to be shrouded in a layer of grey fog. He could not see anything clearly.
Climbing out from the cupboard, Han Fei did not dare to move around. Instead, he opened the menu.
The game exit button was greyed out. His character ID showed that he was in a special state.
'The same thing happened to me when I did the manager mission last time. I should be inside Jin Sheng's memory now.'
There was no death penalty for dying in the manager mission but each death would cause the player to lose their memory until they completely forgot about themselves.
Han Fei did not plan to do the manager mission so soon but he had no other choice.
Ma Manjiang was just outside the door. If he hesitated for even a second longer, he would be captured.
'I'll have to be more careful this time.'
With a sigh, Han Fei smashed the cup on the table.
He picked up the shard and carved his name on his arm.
The pain caused Han Fei to grit his teeth. His gaze chilled.
'Remember the pain, remember myself and try to survive this mission.'
Han Fei looked around the infirmary. The clock on the wall was frozen at 1.05 am.
This time was very important to Jin Sheng, it was a time he would never forget.
Closing the cupboard door, Han Fei did a quick search of the infirmary.
Based on his previous experience, he knew he could not stay in one place for too long.
After a quick search, Han Fei hurried to the infirmary door.
When he pushed open the door, the robotic voice rang in his mind.
"Notification for Player 0000! You need to find Jin Sheng at this school! "
Every manager mission was different. The building manager mission required Han Fei to kill all the ghosts in the room and save everyone but the school manager mission only required Han Fei to find Jin Sheng.
'No matter how many times I die, I just need to find Jin Sheng?'
Pushing on the door lightly, the moment the door opened, Han Fei took several steps back.
The last manager mission had left a deep psychological scar on him. Every step he took was filled with fear and trepidation. Every time he took a step forward, he would tremble in fear.
A faint gray fog drifted into the house, and a child's singing could be faintly heard from the corridor.
He quietly walked out of the infirmary and looked at the corridor outside.
The Yi Ming Private Academy in Jin Sheng's memory was exactly the same as the school in real life, the only difference was the ever-present grey fog.
His world seemed to be enveloped by a layer of gray fog. It was clearly the same as everyone else's world, but there was an indescribable feeling of suffocation.
"Does Jin Sheng live in such oppression?"
Just as Han Fei exited the room, he heard footsteps. He followed the sound and saw a man about 3 metres tall walking down the corridor from the other end of the corridor.
The man had no eyes, and in the place of his eye sockets were two slightly smaller mouths.
His upper body was bare, and there was a gaping hole in his stomach, which hid many different faces.
Some of the faces had regular features, they had kind and kind smiles; others were filled with desire, malice and madness.
To Han Fei's horror, there was a butterfly perched on the monster's chest. The strange blue color of the butterfly did not fit in with this world.
'Ma Manjiang!'
When Han Fei triggered the manager mission, he saw the blue butterfly fly out from Ma Manjiang's body. It appeared to have followed him into Jin Sheng's memory world.
Cold sweat slid down his forehead. The pressure on Han Fei increased. Not only did he have to deal with the baleful Specter from the manager mission, he also had to be wary of the blue butterfly.
'The face inside the monster's stomach is very similar to Ma Manjiang, this monster should be the Ma Manjiang in Jin Sheng's memory.'
Han Fei had no idea why the Ma Manjiang in Jin Sheng's memory would look like this but he knew the butterfly had followed him into Jin Sheng's memory and attached itself to the Ma Manjiang in Jin Sheng's memory.
With the addition of two outsiders in Jin Sheng's memory world, the manager mission this time was full of variables!
'The target is clear, it's coming for the nurse's office. The butterfly is controlling the Ma Manjiang in Jin Sheng's memory, it wants to kill me in Jin Sheng's memory world!'
There was no penalty for death in the manager mission but the player would lose their memory. If they died too many times, they would forget everything and be trapped in Jin Sheng's memory world forever.
At the same time Han Fei noticed Ma Manjiang, the monster also noticed Han Fei.
It reached out to pull out a venomous face from its stomach and stuck it to its chest. Then it charged at Han Fei like a madman!
'The rules are the same. If I can kill Ma Manjiang here, the blue butterfly's memory should be damaged as well.'
Ma Manjiang was the scariest character in Jin Sheng's memory world. The butterfly had the upper hand but Han Fei was not going to give up.
'I'm no match for the butterfly in a one-on-one fight. If I can drag it down with me, I'll be lucky.'
Han Fei's eyes were cold. Tonight would be the most dangerous night he had ever spent in the game.
Without the previous building manager's protection and the help of his neighbours, he had to face the butterfly for the first time in his life!
The 3 metres tall Ma Manjiang crawled down the corridor like a beast. It moved at an insane speed. The distance between Han Fei and it was slowly closing.
'If I run into this thing in the corridor, I'll have to rely on the baleful Specters from the manager mission to hold it back!'
Without any hesitation, he ran towards the other end of the corridor. There was a child's singing coming from the other end of the corridor.
Running down the corridor, Han Fei arrived at the source of the singing. He kicked open the classroom door.
Inside the small classroom, a few students with no ears were singing a strange song.
Han Fei had no time to wonder why the students in Jin Sheng's memory would behave like this. He yelled into the classroom that the monster was approaching.
The students with no ears all turned to look at Han Fei. Their eye sockets were filled with blood, they had no eyeballs.
The monster was right behind him but the students continued to sing happily. They did not care about what Han Fei was saying.
Ma Manjiang was closing in. When it passed the classroom door, it tore off the face that was stuck to its chest. Then it pulled out a kind face from its stomach and stuck it on its chest.
When the students saw Ma Manjiang, they did not show any fear. Instead, they followed behind Ma Manjiang and chased after Han Fei!
'Have they lost their minds?!'
Han Fei ran as fast as he could. He slowly understood why the students in Jin Sheng's memory looked like that.
They had no ears so they could not hear Jin Sheng's warning.
They had no eyes, that was why they were tricked by Ma Manjiang and became the monster's accomplice.
'The whole school is shrouded in grey fog. Everyone has been transformed into monsters. Am I experiencing the same despair that Jin Sheng experienced back then?
"I have to find a way out of the same despair?"
