Anonymous User: So far, has anyone found the dark side of humanity hidden under the surface of the sea?
Huang Yin (Tester Account Number 0999): Including this time, Perfect Life has been in 6 closed beta tests. Countless players have dug 3 feet into the ground but failed to find the so-called deep world. Now everyone thinks this is just a rumor. Even Deep Space Tech and Immortal Pharma have announced that there is no such thing as a deep world in Perfect Life.
Anonymous User: I also think this is a rumor.
Huang Yin (Tester Account Number 0999): By the way, can I visit your house? How should I address you? It could be considered fate that the two of us were able to meet in 999 chat rooms.
Anonymous User: You're welcome to visit me anytime. I'll introduce you to all my friends. My name is …
Han Fei was about to make up a random name when he noticed Chat Room 444 had turned grey again.
He turned to look at the wall. The time on the clock was 4.01 am.
"Chat Room 444 can only be used from 3: 59 am to 4: 01 am?"
'Am I only allowed to enter the room during the 2 minutes between dawn and night?'
With this in mind, Han Fei thought back to his conversation with Huang Yin. 'This person appears to be playing a different game from me.'
Sitting on the sofa, Han Fei stared at the haunted television. 'If Huang Yin is telling the truth, then based on what he said, I'm currently in the game's cryptic world. The normal game they play is the surface world. The surface world and the deep world can only be communicated through the chat room at the moment before dawn. But there's another possibility, Huang Yin is playing me. In fact, he might not even be a human but a ghost. He used various methods to kill a player so he knows a lot of things. '
Nothing was impossible in this Nether World. Only by being cautious could one survive.
'Huang Yin's ID is listed as 0999. After I leave the game, I can investigate this or try to get in touch with him in real life.'
Han Fei could still remember the serial number behind Huang Yin's ID. To prove his hypothesis, the best way was to investigate it in person.
'If only I can find a way out through him.' Han Fei stood up and walked to the window. He looked out through the gap in the wooden boards. 'The sun appears to never rise here, it's always night.'
After ensuring his surroundings were safe, he exited the game at the corner of the haunted house.
Initially, Han Fei planned to log out of the game at the old lady's house. That way, when he logged in, he would be safe at the old lady's place.
However, after careful consideration, he decided that it was better not to let the residents in the building know that he could log out of the game.
Han Fei clicked the exit button on the menu. The world before his eyes was covered in red and he exited the game.
Han Fei placed the helmet aside and switched on the computer. He typed the information that he had memorized into a document.
"I need to buy some of the books that Meng Changan has read. That way, I might be able to enter his inner world more easily."
Over the past few days, Han Fei had been ordering books and study materials. With his life on the line, he no longer felt that studying was boring.
After that, Han Fei started to search for Huang Yin's information online.
He tried many methods but the information of all the closed testers of Perfect Life was kept confidential. Even if he knew their numbers, he would not be able to access them.
'Looks like I'll have to rely on Li Xue. This time, I need to come up with a better excuse.'
The cold light from the screen shone on Han Fei's face. He sat next to the wall that was filled with pictures of the victims. He stared at the information on the computer silently. Anyone who saw him now would not think he was an actor.
The sun had risen but Han Fei pulled the curtains closed. He was used to the darkness so he was still not used to the sudden light.
After having a simple breakfast, Han Fei took out his phone to call Li Xue.
"Can you help me look up someone?"
"A dead man or a living man?"
"I'm not sure. I only know his name is Huang Yin, he's a doctor." Han Fei suddenly spoke faster. "He likes to play games at night, the latest immersive video game."
"Is this man related to the human jigsaw case?"
"It's a very strange connection."
"Then, give me a minute."
The conversation between Han Fei and Li Xue was brief. Several minutes later, Li Xue called back.
"I've found someone who fits your description. He's the new deputy director of Xin Lu Andrology Hospital — Huang Yin. He graduated from the top medical university in the country. He inherited his father's hospital when he was in his early 30s and became the new deputy director. He lives at the heart of the smart city. He likes to play games. A few years ago, he once made a shocking statement on a dating show. The host asked him if he had to give up his girlfriend or his game, which one would he give up? In the end, he chose to give up his girlfriend. Perhaps that's why he's still single. "
"He's also an interesting person." Han Fei thought back to Huang Yin's tone of voice in the game. He had a feeling this Huang Yin was the person he was looking for.
After thanking Li Xue, Han Fei hung up and left the room with his phone.
He took the train that connected the old city and the smart city to the city center. Ignoring the charm and convenience of the smart city, he hurried to Xin Lu Andrology Hospital.
After a fruitless search on the computer, Han Fei tried to contact the hospital staff. The answer he received was a speechless one — as the deputy director, Huang Yin, was currently attending an event at Deep Space Tech.
As the 6th closed beta went smoothly, Perfect Life was about to welcome the OB. Their advertisements could be seen everywhere, there were promotions for them almost every day.
"Why would the deputy director of Xin Lu Andrology Hospital attend Deep Space Tech's event?"
Initially, Han Fei did not understand but when he arrived at Deep Space Tech's event venue, he understood why this place would be so attractive to a gaming enthusiast.
Deep Space Tech had booked the entire international shopping mall. There were 6 large exhibition halls and 12 different experience halls to promote the game. Stepping into one of these halls was like stepping into a different world.
The future that people imagined many years ago had arrived. Mature technology, crazy ideas, be it heaven or hell, humans could create them all.
"How am I supposed to find so many people?" After registering, Han Fei came to experience hall 12 which had the least number of people.
He had just been cured of his social anxiety. Now that he was suddenly surrounded by so many people, his head was spinning.
"Perfect Life is a casual healing game that can nourish the soul and soothe the body and mind. There is a heartwarming plot and a heartwarming daily life. We will use hope and happiness as our main theme to bring positive energy to all players! "
Hearing this familiar introduction, Han Fei shivered and his face blanched.
Surrounded by fanatical gamers, he was the only one standing alone in the passageway, looking out of place.
"Brother, are you not feeling well?" A hand patted Han Fei's back and passed him a bottle of mineral water from the exhibition area.
"Thank you." Han Fei turned back to look. A handsome middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes stood beside him. The man's outfit probably cost Han Fei half a year's salary. One look and Huang Fei could tell he was a so-called elite. "Why are you dressed so formally at the gaming exhibition?"
"Actually, I hate dressing like this. My family has arranged a blind date for me today. Normally, I would use work as an excuse to avoid it but today, they sent the girl directly to my workplace."
"So, to avoid it, you decided to join a gaming event instead?"
"How can you say that I'm avoiding it? I like games, that's how simple a man's happiness is. " The man's personality was different from Han Fei's. "You look like this is your first time at a promotional event for Perfect Life. Come! I'll show you around, you'll get a taste of the game's charm! "
"There's no need for that, I prefer to be alone."
"It's no trouble at all! It's on the way. " The man used facial recognition to grab two VR goggles from the counter. "I've been recommending this game to everyone I meet. This is the best game I've ever played in my life! As long as you like this game, we'll be brothers! Come! Put on the goggles. When you're done, just enter my name at the counter. By the way, my name is Huang Yin. "
