"Bang!"
Han Fei's back was drenched in cold sweat when he landed on top of the air conditioner.
Even a stunt actor would not do something as dangerous as this, much less when Han Fei was not prepared for it.
"At first, I just wanted to be a comedian."
Han Fei's heart was pounding. He could hear Ma Manjiang's roar above his head.
His legs felt weak. The grey fog swirled around him. The chilling wind crawled into his clothes. Han Fei found it hard to even move.
The old air conditioner creaked noisily. It could fall at any moment due to Han Fei's weight.
Han Fei had no other choice.
Grabbing the edge of the air conditioner, Han Fei jumped down again. As a comedian, he managed to do something that not even a stunt actor would dare to do.
When he jumped for the first time, he was so scared that his heart almost stopped beating. When he jumped for the second time, his body had memorized the feeling, but it still felt very scary. When he jumped for the third time, maybe because he was closer to the ground, he didn't feel so scared anymore.
Han Fei successfully reached the first floor. Ma Manjiang's angry roar echoed on the 4th floor.
'Hopefully, Ma Manjiang will focus all his hatred on me. That way, Jin Sheng's homeroom teacher will have time to check the security room.'
Han Fei could not see what was happening on the 4th floor due to the thick grey fog. He could only rely on Ma Manjiang's angry roar to pinpoint its location.
Han Fei circled to the other side of the building. While Ma Manjiang was going down the stairs, Han Fei snuck into the fog and jumped into the school's greenery.
'The school is shrouded in fog, the visibility is low, that's not good for me.'
Ma Manjiang's body was heavy. When it ran at full speed, it would produce heavy footsteps but if it moved slowly, the footsteps would be very soft.
If Ma Manjiang noticed Han Fei and slowly approached him, Han Fei would not be able to do anything.
'I can't wait for him to find me and I can't stay in one place for too long.'
Han Fei touched the cement wall next to him. Yi Ming Private Academy was surrounded by a wall that was almost 3 metres tall, there was no escape.
'It feels like this school is like a prison in Jin Sheng's eyes, a prison that is out of control, ruled by the prisoners.'
Han Fei stepped on the grass and moved through the greenery. The manager mission required him to find Jin Sheng.
Based on Han Fei's prediction, the most likely place for Jin Sheng to appear was his own bedroom.
After all, in reality, Jin Sheng's body was found in the cupboard in his dormitory.
Han Fei had just confirmed his next target when he heard the sound of cursing and arguing coming from about 10 metres ahead of him.
"Other than the victims, the rest of the people in this school are all enemies. I'd better avoid them."
Han Fei finally managed to shake off Ma Manjiang's pursuit. He did not want to expose his location again. Just as he was about to take a detour, a dog's barking came from the fog ahead.
"Why is there dog barking in Jin Sheng's memory?"
The unusual sound attracted Han Fei's attention. He crept forward silently.
At the end of the green belt was the back door of the school. A few strong adults were beating a wild dog with sticks.
The adults seemed to be the parents of the students. They were dressed differently and looked strong and powerful. They kept cursing at the students.
To Han Fei's surprise, the adults did not have noses on their faces. Instead, they had a large mouth and a large eye that took up a quarter of their faces.
The large mouth screamed shrilly. The eye could not see the injured dog or the blood stains on the ground, it could only reflect the faces of their children.
The sticks kept falling. The wild dog was very aggressive. It did not know how to evade and charged at the parents and their children.
The adults protecting their children was not a big deal but Han Fei slowly realized something was wrong. Things were not that simple in Jin Sheng's world.
He took a few more steps forward before he could see clearly that the wild dog covered in wounds actually had a human face!
'Zhang Guanxing? How did he turn into this?! '
Han Fei did not expect Zhang Guanxing to look like this in Jin Sheng's memory. But on second thought, it made sense.
Before Zhang Guanxing met Han Fei, he was impulsive, rebellious and self-abased. No one really loved him. Even his biological father gave him the cold shoulder. He was like a homeless stray.
In the confrontation with the adults, the dog was at an absolute disadvantage. However, he had the chance to escape but he refused to do so. He insisted on fighting the adults to the end.
The end result was that he was beaten to a pulp. The adults grew more and more disgusted with this disobedient dog.
When the dog was beaten to the point where he could not even stand up, the adults finally stopped.
They dropped the sticks and wiped away the blood on their hands. They picked up their children's school bags and greeted the others with a smile. Then they walked into the fog together. They seemed to be heading to the office building.
After the parents left, Han Fei hurried out from the green belt. He picked up the dog from the ground and ran to the other side of the green belt.
"Why didn't you run when they were beating you so hard?"
Han Fei did not have anything that could stop the bleeding but the dog appeared to have gotten used to it. Pain was nothing to it.
Han Fei tore off his shirt and helped bandage the man's wounds.
"When I met you in the cryptic world, I knew you had a hard life but I really didn't expect the real you to be so much worse than I imagined." Han Fei touched Zhang Guanxing's head with heartache. "At least other people still have a human face but you've turned into this in Jin Sheng's memory."
Han Fei tried to communicate with Zhang Guanxing but even though Zhang Guanxing had a human face, he could only bark. He could not communicate with him.
"Did Jin Sheng also tell you something, but you didn't listen to his advice?"
Even though Zhang Guanxing had turned into a stray dog, he could tell who was good to him and who was bad to him.
When Han Fei was treating his wounds, he did not resist, and the ferocity in his eyes disappeared.
Perhaps due to the frequent beatings, Zhang Guanxing's wounds healed quickly. Soon he could stand up and run again.
"Not including Jin Sheng, there are only 3 'people' at Yi Ming Private Academy who can help me and now one of them has turned into a stray dog."
Just as Han Fei was thinking about how to communicate with Zhang Guanxing, Zhang Guanxing jumped out from the bushes as if he smelled something.
"Where are you going?"
The fog was thick so Han Fei did not dare to stay too far away from Zhang Guanxing. He followed behind Zhang Guanxing until they reached the school field.
