The bloodied paper doll stood shakily on the ground, exuding an ominous aura.
The middle-aged man did not think much of Han Fei until he saw the doll's face.
The face that was wrapped in blood radiated with a breathtaking beauty. Even a paper doll could be so beautiful?
Chills crawled down his spine, the middle-aged man could not have been more familiar with that face.
That unique beauty symbolized extreme cruelty and danger, he did not even want to mention that scary name.
"What is your relationship with her?" Seeing the paper doll, the long-haired middle-aged man's voice changed. He was prepared for the worst.
"To put it simply, we're neighbors."
"Neighbors?" A flash of confusion crossed the middle-aged man's eyes. There were indeed some bonds in the cryptic world but they were all forcefully connected by curses. Even parents and children could not trust each other, but Han Fei was willing to risk his life for the sake of a neighbour.
From the middle-aged man's perspective, Han Fei was probably just looking for an excuse to kill him, he did not believe Han Fei was really doing this for the sake of that woman.
Furthermore, he did not think anyone in this world would be willing to help that crazy, gluttonous woman.
The clothes that were woven from human hair exuded the stench of decomposition. The patterns on the human faces started to twist and contort into expressions of extreme pain.
Every single strand of hair on the middle-aged man's body appeared to have been plucked from a dead body, they radiated the aura of death.
"Looks like you're really not going to answer me."
The black anaconda that had consumed a large amount of Yin energy crawled into the ghost tattoo. The surface temperature of Han Fei's skin kept dropping until frost started to form.
This was very painful for a living person but Han Fei did not show any sign of pain on his face. There was only madness and a trace of worry on his twisted face.
"I will make you speak."
Even if Han Fei was alone, he would try his best to stop the middle-aged man, much less with his neighbor's help.
Han Fei was a simple man. 'You've helped me before, so if you're in trouble, I'll do my best to save you.'
When he first arrived at Happiness Neighbourhood, Xu Qin had saved him more than once, Han Fei did not forget her kindness.
Not to mention, Xu Qin helped him control the paper doll. Han Fei could still remember the scene. Xu Qin used the table knife to pierce through her palm and the paper doll. Her own blood covered the doll's body.
It was all thanks to Xu Qin that Han Fei, who was only at level 10, could control this Grade F Cursed Object.
"Do it!"
Without any warning, several chilling auras rushed toward the long-haired man at the same time. The attacks came from all directions, and there were many of them.
When Han Fei followed the man out of the dumpling restaurant, he was already prepared to make his move. He released the ghosts from the urn and had them hide around the place.
Han Fei was no longer the Xiao Bai he once was. He knew the rules of this city. To get to the truth, the safest way was to beat the person until they no longer dared to lie.
From the beginning, he had never intended to settle this peacefully. After all, this involved Xu Qin, and he dared not be careless. The negotiation just now was only to buy time for the neighbors to complete the encirclement.
The sound of crying entered his ears. The long-haired man could not tell where the sound came from. It seemed like the enemy could appear anywhere within ten meters.
His sensitive senses were disrupted by the crying. Slowly, all that remained in the long-haired man's ears were the cries of agony. The sound was enough to drive a person insane.
"You …"
The long-haired man did not expect Han Fei to make a move without warning.
He had lost the initiative and was forced into a passive position.
He had just left Cattle Alley, so the long-haired man was not at his peak condition. Now that he was surrounded, the situation was not looking good for him.
Instead of attacking all of them, he might as well take out one of them first.
The chilling eyes turned to Han Fei. His clothes melted into sticky black hair. The middle-aged man was aging rapidly as all the Yin energy in his body was sucked into the black hair.
Seeing the middle-aged man charge at him, Han Fei did not panic. For the sake of survival, he had fought Zhang Guanxing in close combat before.
With that experience, Han Fei was much calmer this time.
In the cryptic world, Han Fei was an anomaly. He was the weakest but also the most fearless. He was someone who could topple the common sense of most ghosts.
Without dodging, Han Fei assumed the most standard police combat stance. The ghost tattoo on his body dug into his skin but he did not seem to feel any pain.
When the middle-aged man was within 2 meters of him, Han Fei's tensed muscles exploded with power.
"Touch the secrets of the soul!"
A side whip kick landed on the middle-aged man's waist. His body that was protected by the black hair instantly caved in.
His eyes bulged out. The middle-aged man looked at his own body with disbelief. He could not understand how a person who radiated the presence of a living being could attack his body that was made up of hatred and pain.
The emotions buried deep in his heart were exposed. The man's attack appeared to be able to penetrate through the Yin energy's protection and directly touch the deepest secrets of his soul?
The black hair curled around Han Fei's legs but to his surprise, the man before him seemed to have lost his mind. He did not care about his own life at all. Using his body as a rope, he tried to use a trapping skill on a ghost.
In reality, Han Fei who could exit the game could avoid fatal damage in less than a second. Han Fei who did not care about death was in his strongest state.
If Han Fei ran into the middle-aged man alone, he would not have fought him head-on but with the help of his neighbours, he only needed to trap the man and buy time for his neighbours.
The crying echoed in his ears. Before the middle-aged man could find the chance to kill Han Fei, a paper doll's face appeared before him.
Lowering his head to look, a red paper doll had crawled onto his chest. The doll looked exactly like the scariest woman at Cattle Alley.
The nightmare stepped on him. The breathtakingly beautiful face represented misfortune and misfortune for the man.
'Why is the paper doll giving off the presence of curses as well?'
The woman was a Curse Amalgamation. To the man's shock, the paper doll's curse aura was no weaker than the woman's.
'What is going on? Why are there suddenly so many ghosts and curses trying to help the woman?! '
This was unimaginable in the cryptic world. The long-haired man could not understand it. Had all these ghosts lost their minds? He didn't ask for the reason, but he actually acted for a terrifying and cruel curse amalgamation.
Selfishness and aloofness were the norm here. He did not expect these ghosts with completely different beliefs to come together for the sake of a single person.
The clothes made from black hair were pierced through. His consciousness wavered in the midst of the crying. Just as he was about to use his power, something hammered his back.
A fat monster with an ominous aura smashed into his back. The parts that were touched by the monster began to rot rapidly. Black bugs the size of a finger were crawling among the rotting souls.
Those things were called Disaster Bugs. Every time a disaster arrived, they would appear first.
If he did not resist, there would be no more chances. The long-haired man opened the blood-stained wooden box. The human head rolled to the ground. He did not bother to pick it up. Instead, he pulled out a pair of rusty scissors from the blood inside the box.
The scissors looked rusty, as if they couldn't even cut through paper. However, when the scissors touched the bodies of the Li brothers, their souls were cut open.
'These scissors appear to be the hairdresser's real body?'
There was more than one pair of scissors inside the wooden chest. Normally, they were all soaked in blood and sealed inside the chest.
When the long-haired man grabbed the scissors, his mind was instantly affected. His eyes turned red. He bit on his hair and started to call out a name involuntarily.
"Notification for Player 0000! You've triggered Grade G Unique Hidden Mission — The Hairdresser.
"Hairdresser (Resentment): The hardworking man runs a barber shop on the corner of the street. He loves his job because he has a secret that no one knows. He suffers from a serious hair fetish."
"Touching, sniffing and even licking hair can bring him unparalleled excitement. Gradually, he is no longer satisfied with touching hair during work. He wishes to possess more hair that belongs to different people. He wishes to use those people's hair to weave a cocoon and trap himself inside it forever.
"Mission Requirement: Kill the hairdresser and completely destroy the hairdresser's scissors. Release the Lingering Spirit trapped inside the scissors; or choose to save the hairdresser and help the hairdresser fulfill his dream by weaving a cocoon of hair for him.
Without hesitation, Han Fei chose to kill the hairdresser.
'Once his soul disappears, all his fetish will be cured.'
Surrounded by multiple Lingering Spirits, including Weep who had just completed his breakthrough, it was not easy for the hairdresser to survive until now.
His body was invaded by the paper doll. The smiling doll tried its best to crawl into the hairdresser's wounds. Just the thought of it sent shivers down the hairdresser's spine.
He tried his best to defend himself but in the end, the paper doll still found its opening.
The tiny pieces of paper crawled into his flesh and squeezed into his soul.
His consciousness, which had already been tortured to the limit by the crying, now felt another kind of pain. It felt like his eyeballs were stuffed with pieces of paper. He wanted to pull them out with his hands, but even if his fingers reached into his wounds, he couldn't touch his soul.
It was the hairdresser's bad luck to run into these madmen.
To be honest, he felt innocent. He had done nothing wrong, all he did was enter the dumpling shop to open the wooden chest.
'Are they really after that woman? Just because they are neighbours? Is everyone in this neighbourhood crazy?! '
