Han Fei decided to make up for what he failed to do in real life. He wanted to kill Ma Manjiang here, over and over again!
'The blue butterfly followed me into Jin Sheng's memory. If killing it can affect the butterfly, then that'll be perfect.'
After knowing there was a weapon at the school that could harm Ma Manjiang, Han Fei was no longer as panicked as before.
He was not as impatient as Zhang Guanxing. Instead, he slowly approached Chuxia and gained her trust.
The girl had buried her deepest wound deep inside her heart. To remove the scissors from her heart, Han Fei had to make her willingly open her heart to share her pain and anxiety.
The girl's cracked body was shaking. The girl's fear of Ma Manjiang prevented her from speaking. Han Fei did not force her.
Some things could not be rushed. He was not a professional psychiatrist, but a comedian who had been sick for a long time. He had to think for a long time before he opened his mouth.
If he said something wrong, it might cause Chuxia more pain and self-isolation.
"The field is not safe, let's go somewhere else to talk."
The grey fog shrouded the school. Visibility was low. Ma Manjiang had learned his lesson. He did not make any noise. The whole school was silent.
Han Fei had no idea where Ma Manjiang was. The man could show up at any moment. Under such circumstances, it was dangerous to stay in the open.
With Han Fei's encouragement and support, Chuxia finally stopped crying. She picked up her school bag and climbed up from the ground.
In real life, Chuxia did not step forward to identify Ma Manjiang. Han Fei had no idea what method Ma Manjiang had used. To prevent any accidents, Han Fei could not allow Chuxia to meet with Ma Manjiang.
'Before Ma Manjiang finds Chuxia, I need to remove the scissors from Chuxia's heart.'
After stopping at the field for a while, Han Fei noticed the fog around the school thickened. Not only did the visibility decrease, a faded stench permeated the air like something was rotting.
Han Fei signaled for Zhang Guanxing to be quiet. He led him and Chuxia along the edge of the field to the backdoor of Yi Ming Private Academy.
The backdoor was locked and the walls were reinforced. A new sign hung on the rusted iron gate, forbidding students from climbing over it.
"Where's Ol 'Lee?"
Yi Ming Private Academy's first victim was Ol 'Lee. Han Fei had not met Ol' Lee yet. 'Where will he go?'
While he was searching for Ol 'Li, footsteps came from the fog not far away.
Han Fei who hid at the school's backdoor could make out 3 figures. They appeared to be students from Yi Ming Private Academy.
'The students who should have been in the classroom have appeared at other parts of the school. Could it be that Ma Manjiang has ordered the other students to find me?'
Ma Manjiang had many faces. He was good at deception and disguise. The students and teachers at the school trusted him.
If Han Fei had such an advantage, he would definitely make good use of it.
The school is only so big, all the students are Ma Manjiang's spies. It's only a matter of time before I'm discovered.
In a normal hide-and-seek game, it was one ghost chasing after many people but Han Fei realized after he entered the cryptic world, every time he played hide-and-seek, it would be a large group of ghosts chasing after him.
"Since I'll be discovered sooner or later, I might as well try as many ways to kill Ma Manjiang before I'm discovered."
Han Fei turned to look at Chu Xia. He memorized every word that he had said to Chu Xia.
Now, he knew which sentence could lower Chuxia's guard and which sentence could shorten the distance between him and Chuxia. This was the result of his careful testing and analysis.
In a way, Perfect Life was the most hardcore healing game Han Fei had ever played. If he did not open Chu Xia's heart, he would not be able to find a weapon to fight back.
If he did not find a way to heal the victims, he would be torn apart by the monsters and ghosts.
Han Fei used his words to gain Chu Xia's trust. By then more than half of the students had escaped from the education block.
There were ghosts everywhere. Their facial features were twisted. They dragged their deformed bodies and weaved a large net around the school.
Before the net spread, Han Fei led Chu Xia and Zhang Guanxing to the back of the hostel block.
"I'll go take a look."
Han Fei took out the necklace that Ma Manjiang gave to the female teacher from his pocket. He hung the necklace that emitted the fragrance and contained Ma Manjiang's sweet words around Zhang Guanxing's neck.
Zhang Guanxing's nose twitched. When he smelled the fragrance, he felt nauseous.
"If Ma Manjiang shows up, put on the necklace and run. That's the only way you can protect Chu Xia, understand?" Han Fei stared into Zhang Guanxing's eyes. It was not until Zhang Guanxing whimpered several times that Han Fei left.
The hostel block's front door was not locked and the hostel manager was not inside.
On the surface, this looked like a rare opportunity but Han Fei felt something was wrong. The hostel block was too quiet!
'There are shadows of students in the other buildings but this is the only place …' Han Fei did not get any closer. Instead, he turned his eyes to the hostel manager's mirror. The mirror reflected a shadow of a ghost.
The ghost was hiding behind the hostel manager's door. It had 4 misshapen heads.
'It's Ma Manjiang's monster son!'
Han Fei retreated immediately. Ma Manjiang was not at the hostel block but he had his son guard the door.
'He predicted that I would come to the hostel block, he knows that Jin Sheng is probably hiding here.'
Ma Manjiang predicted that Han Fei would come to the hostel block and Han Fei predicted that Ma Manjiang would set up an ambush inside the hostel block. Both of them predicted the other's next move.
The difference was, Ma Manjiang was the hunter while Han Fei was the hunted.
'I can't force my way in!'
Since he could not enter the hostel through the front door, Han Fei had other options.
He retreated silently to meet up with Chu Xia. "I'll climb to the 2nd floor first. Follow me up later."
Han Fei tore off his shirt and tied the stray dog with the necklace on his back. Then he grabbed the security net and climbed up to the 2nd floor.
Putting down Zhang Guanxing, Han Fei extended his hand downstairs. "Trust me, hold my hand."
Chu Xia hesitated at the bottom of the stairs. Han Fei did not dare raise his voice. He could only put on the most trustworthy expression.
After some hesitation, Chu Xia grabbed the security net and started to climb up. Finally, she was dragged up to the 2nd floor by Han Fei.
The knife that killed Ma Manjiang was still with Chu Xia, Han Fei was not going to let Chu Xia leave. Along the way, he kept comforting and questioning Chu Xia. He slowly lowered Chu Xia's guard.
"Stay close to me."
Han Fei pushed the hostel door open a gap and looked out.
Walking down the foggy corridor was a middle-aged woman in a flowery dress. Her face was painted with various colors.
She had a large body but her mind did not seem to be working. She wandered down the corridor like a madwoman. She was holding all the keys to the hostel rooms.
'Hostel manager? Why is she a madwoman in Jin Sheng's memory? '
