532 A Big Surprise


    “Thest child? What is his code number?” The man was intrigued, and his tone softened.


    “I don’t know what you mean. I only know that he was thest child to receive personality transnt surgery. But only his father knows the intended personality.”


    “Based on my knowledge, there is no manager at Deep Space Tech who has the surname Yan.”


    “I don’t know anything else.”


    “Are you sure?” The man did not trust Xia Yn. “I have onest question for you. If you can answer it, I will give you all the pictures.”


    “Ask then.”


    “I have the info of 21 victims with me. They have been to the stic surgery hospital when they were alive. They died for different reasons, but most suffered from mental trauma. So I only need you to answer me. How many among these 21 do you know.”


    “Give me the pictures, and I’ll tell you.”


    The room went into silence again. About 10 secondster, the Prop Room opened. Xia Yn held something and nced outside the corridor. She looked around, and there was no one there. Xia Yn closed the door and left in a hurry. Soon after that, a long-haired man walked out of the Prop Room. When he passed the dressing room, he stopped and frowned. He opened the door and looked in. He only left after he was sure no one was around. The corridor returned to silence. About half an hourter, the dressing room door was opened from inside. Han Fei was standing behind the door earlier. If the long-haired man pushed the door open to a greater degree, he would have found Han Fei. “He is too alert to be a normal actor.”


    Han Fei obtained valuable information. He sneaked back into the Prop Room. The room hadn’t changed, but the flower petals and the row of dolls before the mirror had disappeared. “Yan Tang was thest child to take the surgery. Based on what they said, Yan Tang is rted to one of the other kids.”


    The long-haired man was investigating the stic surgery hospital. He was looking for the orphans. “It has been months since I started Perfect Life. Some of the orphans might have started to remember their past and wanted to do something about it.” Han Fei knew nothing about his past, but that might not be true for the other orphans. “I should reach out to them. Perhaps they can help me.” No one liked to go around making enemies. Everyone needed friends.


    Han Fei came to the ticket counter to purchase a ticket. He waited for the show to start and then sat among the audience to enjoy the y. Many audience members were there for Qiang Wei. The man’s performance was outstanding. There seemed to be two souls in his body. He could switch between male and female freely. Han Fei had masterful acting. Qiang Wei was just one step away from being a masterful actor from a professional perspective.


    ‘He was the one who hypnotized Jin Jun? What else is he hiding?’ At 9 pm, Qiang Wei’s y was over. When the actors left the stage, Han Fei left his seat. He wanted to meet Qiang Wei in person. Han Fei came to the dressing room with the worker leading the way. He opened the door, but Qiang Wei was not there. He walked forward and saw a lipstick message in the mirror—I know you. Mind your own business.


    “Well, that’s rude.” Han Fei did not stay because he was needed in-game. “Thanks to the newest info, I shall summon Yan Tang into the cryptic world to have a serious talk with him.” At 11.30 pm, Han Fei was preparing to enter the game when Huang Yin called him. Han Fei thought Huang Yin would update him about the neighborhood, but he was wrong. “Han Fei, this is not good.”


    “What’s wrong?”


    “Do you still remember I’ve told you about the two teams of elite yers trapped inside the maze?”


    “I do. Did something happen to them?”


    “There’s no news of their death yet, so they should still be trapped inside the maze, but this can’t be allowed to continue any longer. I just received an update from Absolute Truth. They n to build another group of elite yers to enter the maze. The group will be made of the most professional ck box hunters. Their average level is 17. There is even a level 19 yer who is on the ranking.” Huang Yin sounded worried.


    “They’re sending in more people? Why?” Han Fei couldn’t enter the Lost Theme Park at the moment. There was the hospital between the theme park and Ziggurat.


    “In any case, I can’t stop them. They even invited me to join them as the blood doctor.” Huang Yin sounded conflicted. “They have a great deal of influence. If something happens to them inside the maze, it’ll definitely attract the attention of other yers and get more people into the maze. I’m afraid bad things will happen.”


    “What is the situation about the theme park?”


    “I’ve been there once before, but I didn’t notice anything strange about it. I believe you have to satisfy certain conditions to trigger something.” Huang Yin told Han Fei on the phone. “The two missing teams have 12 yers, and this time they’re sending another six yers. In total, there’ll be 18 yers. If all of them went missing, this is not going to be good.”


    “I will try my best to get to the maze as soon as possible.” Han Fei understood the severity of the situation. “Send me the info on all 18 yers.”


    “Okay.”


    When Han Fei saw the first name, his expression changed. “Qiang Wei? Level 19? He’s a ck box hunter too?” When Han Fei saw the picture of the long-haired man, he was shocked too.


    “Qiang Wei is one of the founders of Absolute Truth and a famous ck box hunter. He started to look for the ck box since the third CB. He has an almost fanatic obsession with the ck box and hidden maps.”


    “This is such a coincidence.” Han Fei memorized all the info and hung up. He entered the game at midnight.


    The blood descended as promised. The city turned red. The Unmentionable was still there, and his presence was getting scarier.


    Han Fei opened his eyes to examine his body. His wounds had healed, and most importantly, he couldn’t feel the headache anymore. His mind appeared to be stronger than before. Han Fei munched on a pig’s heart as he called Feng Ziyu. He told him about the need to question Yan Tang. To find the truth, Han Fei did not hold back and mobilize every tenant at Ziggurat. When everyone was ready, Han Fei used Spirit-farer, and he seeded on the first try. After knowing Yan Tang’s location through the mist, Han Fei had his neighbors move into action.


    Han Fei went hiding in Big Sin’s room and fed it blood. After a few days of hard work, Big Sin was almost done digesting the Unmentionable’s curse. The Unmentionable didn’t see who the culprit who damaged his altar was, so he cursed every ‘person’ who had interacted with the altar. This was why Big Sin could still bounce around. It didn’t see this as a problem but a chance to taste an Unmentionable’s curse. The curse didn’t kill Big Sin but made it even more potent. At least Big Sin was happy. At around 2 am, Big Sin had fully digested the Unmentionable’s curse. At that moment, the curse mixed with the blood pattern, and Big Sin’s physique changed again. Perhaps it was the Unmentionable’s influence. It looked more like a standing human or demon.


    “The Butterfly became an incredibly handsome person, but his soul was hideous; Big Sin is morphing into an ugly monster, but its soul is very pure.” Han Fei looked at Big Sin, which leaned on him. He touched its head. Blood slid down through Han Fei’s fingers. After Big Sin’s transformation, it radiated a presence scarier than before. The ck shell covered in curses was shed. The new shell was painted with strange patterns that exuded death and tragedy.


    At the same time, a shrill wail came from the Lost Theme Park. All the ghosts heard it clearly.


    Big Sin heard the scream too. It climbed up as if ready to fight the other party. Han Fei quickly pulled it back.


    The unfortunate Unmentionable seemed to sense that his curse had been digested, so he couldn’t find the culprit who damaged his altar anymore. The wailsted for a long time. The Lost Theme Park and an unknown area were caught in its destruction. Large regions of buildings were damaged. Yin energy rushed out of the center of Lost Theme Park like waves. It even dissipated some of the mist covering Ziggurat. Han Fei called Zhuang Wen along and went to the roof to check the situation. The Unmentionable was stopped by something at the Lost Theme Park.


    “Why is he targeting the theme park?” Han Fei called Bai Sinian over. After asking, Han Fei found out that Big Sin had shed its shell once after destroying the altar at Lost Theme Park. Bai Sinian was afraid that the shell might be discovered, so he hid the shell inside the ruined altar at the theme park. The theme park was not protected by the mist, so the Unmentionable probably sensed Big Sin’s shell.


    “You’ve done well.” Han Fei’s impression of Bai Sinian grew exponentially. The Unmentionable stomped between the Lost Theme Park and its adjacent zone. One hourter, everyone heard its scream again. Something at the Lost Theme Park was broken, and the Unmentionable was injured.


    “What is hiding at the theme park that it can harm the Unmentionable?” Han Fei and his neighbors were shocked. Due to the distance, they didn’t know the theme park, but they stayed to watch the show.


    But what happened next excited Han Fei. Han Fei saw the altar inside the stic surgery hospital light up through the mist. Two shades of pure hatred charged towards Lost Theme Park like sharks smelling blood.


    “This is our chance!” Han Fei’s eyes shed.


    “Get ready!” Han Fei took out the Coat of Desire for Zhuang Wen, and then he brought along Big Sin and the strongest neighbors at Ziggurat. “We don’t know which 2 Pure Hatreds have left the hospital, but we need to grab this chance to deal with the remaining Pure Hatred! Our goal is to defeat it or injure it. At the very least, we must destroy their remaining altar!” Doctor Yan joined Han Fei, and they moved out. “Laughing, tell Mirror God to be ready and the others to follow the n.”


    When Han Fei was ready to leave, Feng Ziyu came over carrying the fainted Yan Tang. They had managed to draw some message from Yan Tang. Yang Tang had no memory from before he was 6. After he was 6, it felt like another child had moved into his body. The child was clever, optimistic, and was highly positive. He had no idea how the child got in, but he knew the child’s name was a number. The child was very kind at first, and he befriended Yan Tang.


    But as time progressed, the child inside Yan Tang’s body changed. He seemed to have broken through some shackles, and every day he tried to consume Yan Tang.


    This continued until Yan Tang was 18. The two personas fought to consume the other. Yan Tang’s primary persona slowly got the upper hand, and on the night of his 18th birthday, he swallowed the other child.


    “Only Yan Tang knows about the situation in his mind. It doesn’t matter who has been consumed because the one who remained is the real Yan Tang.”


    Han Fei used Resurrection to send Yan Tang back to the surface. Then he led his team into the mist. After making sure Big Sin didn’t attract the Unmentionable’s attention, Han Fei’s team split into two as they approached the hospital.


    Neighbors like Xu Qin and Drake skirted the edge of the mist while Han Fei brought Doctor Yan, Zhuang Wen, and Big Sin to charge to the hospital at the core of the zone. The Coat of Desire could hide a Pure Hatred’s presence, Big Sin could destroy altars, and Doctor Yan knew the hospital very well. Their group would bring the stic surgery hospital a big surprise.
