My Iyashikei Game

Chapter 960: Only Player Can Leave

Before Perfect Life restarted, Huang Yin used Han Fei's spirit-farer talent to move all the items he had during Closed Beta into the cryptic world. Therefore, he was much ahead compared to other players.

With that advantage, Huang Yin became the first player in the game and cultivated many top players in the Happiness Neighborhood. Now, all the players were trapped in the main hub. Bai Xian and Jin Jun heard the anger in Han Fei's message. They decided to use this power in storage. The extra members of Happiness Neighborhood hurried towards the hospital. They jotted down every player who left and entered the hospital.

"I'll leave this to the normal players. I have more important things to do." Han Fei came to the central pavilion. He shared the guide for the sixth layer and wandered around the main hub, trying to trigger a mission. He circled around for a long time, but there was no mission. "Where's the problem? I can only trigger the mission in the cryptic world?!" Han Fei wandered for around an hour and finally triggered his first mission in the surface world around a cemetery. This was an extremely rare hidden mission. It was the mission for the hidden profession, the medium. It required Han Fei to build a grave for himself at the cemetery. Han Fei couldn't explain why the mission was so strange. It appeared like the system would only give him such missions.

"There are hidden missions everywhere in the cryptic world. It sure is hard in the surface world!" Han Fei built the grave and completed the first step. The other players were watching Han Fei. They believed that this meant that Han Fei was ready to die.

Seeing the exit button that lit up, Han Fei licked his dry lips. "I can trigger the mission related to the cryptic world in the surface world. However, it's rare to find missions like that. Plus, the reward is low too." Han Fei returned to Happiness Neighborhood's base. He entered his room and locked the door. "I've gained a basic understanding of the main hub. I should leave to communicate with Deep Space Tech and Xin Lu Police."

Han Fei hit the exit button. Blood boiled. This was Han Fei's first time quitting the game from the surface world. The whole process was strange. The time it took for him to leave the game was also longer than normal.

"When I left from the cryptic world, the blood dropped down from above; When I left from the surface world, the blood surfaced from the ground." The blood took about ten times more time to cover the whole city. Han Fei also felt great danger during that moment. There was a voice looking for him!

Han Fei's consciousness faded away. His eyes scanned through the grey. He saw the eleven altars in the main hub. The grey mist connected to form a giant grey cocoon. Its size was at least ten times larger than the one underneath Ziggurat. It covered half of the main hub!

Endless souls cried inside the altars. Whenever dream fragments collided, the grey cocoon grew. Dream didn't give the players much time to escape.

"If the souls of all 4000000 players were controlled by Dream, what kind of monster would this cocoon birth? Another first-generation ghost?" In Han Fei's mind, the first-generation ghost wasn't this scary. It was only the size of a theme park. "It feels like there's something inside the cocoon looking at me."

Han Fei removed the gaming helmet. He successfully returned to real life.

"I need to be careful of Dream."

Han Fei climbed out of the gaming hub and contacted Huang Yin. As Perfect Life's first player, Huang Yin had already been invited to Deep Space Tech. Tomorrow morning, he'd be sent into the game with 99 internal players. After communicating with Huang Yin, Han Fei called Xin Lu Police. He hoped that the police could convince Deep Space Tech to give him a spot.

With the police's aid, there shouldn't be much problem. Then, Han Fei looked up Peace Street and Bai Guoguo. Two fires had occurred at Peace Street. One happened at the trash shed on the western side, and the other happened at the private club at the eastern end.

The limping cleaner and his daughter stayed at the trash shed. When the fire happened, the girl was tied at home. Her body was burned. She underwent many surgeries before she was saved, but her life was basically over.

The fire at the private club happened after midnight. The manager of Peace Street, his two sons, and the cleaner died in the fire. Both fires happened 30 years ago. Han Fei wasn't even born back then.

"Have many nightmares Dream has collected over the decades? It still can't create a new black box?"

Han Fei used many methods and finally confirmed Bai Guoguo's location. She owed a lot of hospital bills and was taken in by a charity. Han Fei took a taxi to the charity center. He was a celebrity, so he was recognized at the center immediately. Han Fei was led by the most senior worker to the most secluded corner of the center. The door opened, and a middle-aged woman with a ruined face and body lay on the bed.

"She is Bai Guoguo."

The princess in the nightmare was a crazy woman who couldn't age in real life. Her body was ruined by the fire.

"She was sent here many years ago. The director took her in out of pity. Back then, the doctor said that her brain was severely traumatized. Even if she survived the damage of the fire, her mind was gone, and she wouldn't live for long." The worker had a deep impression of Bai Guoguo. "No one expected her to survive so long. It feels like she doesn't even know her adopted father has died in the fire. She was happy as if her adopted father hadn't left her."

"Her father has been accompanying her. In the dream, she is always her father's little princess." Han Fei entered the room. The sleeping Bai Guoguo had tears on her face, and the pillow was wet.

"This is strange. She always smiles when she's asleep. This is the first time I see her crying at night." The worker followed him into the room.

The footsteps startled Bai Guoguo. She curled up in the corner. Her eyes filled with panic.

"We've met in the nightmare. Your father told me to look after you..." Once Han Fei said that, Bai Guoguo lost her mind. She knocked her head into the wall like she wanted to escape from this life into the dream.

"Quick! Detain her!" There hadn't been any problem for the past 30 years. Bai Guoguo suddenly lost control. It was like she had lost the will to live. Her face was covered in blood.

"I'm sorry." Han Fei hugged Bai Guoguo and allowed her to attack him. He didn't resist, but his eyes dimmed with sadness. Only Han Fei knew why Bai Guoguo had suddenly gone insane. Her only family had left her permanently. Han Fei and the worker sent Bai Guoguo to the First People Hospital's psychiatrist ward.

Han Fei signed on the spot for the guardian and paid all the fees. He waited outside Bai Guoguo's room. After a whole three hours, Bai Guoguo finally calmed down. There was no smile on her face.

"Are you her guardian?" The doctor was startled when he came out of the room. "Han Fei?"

"Yes. I'm her guardian now." Han Fei said. "How is her condition?"

"Very bad. Actually, we have had more patients like her in recent years. We still haven't figured out the pathology and everyone has different symptoms. However, all the patients have mutations in their brains." The doctor showed the x-ray of Bai Guoguo's brain. He connected the mutations in the brain. "Look. Does this not look like a butterfly?"

"Buttterfly?" Han Fei had seen similar images in the scans of other criminals.

"We call this the Butterfly Syndrome. We've been doing plenty of research on it." The doctor put the scans aside. "This sickness affects not only the patients but also society. As the intelligent city gets better, the supercomputer can detect a person's criminal potential to tag them prematurely. However, patients with Butterfly Syndrome can escape from the computer's detection. No one can ascertain their real thoughts. The mutations in their brain ensure that their hearts are hidden from the supercomputer."

"Are there more patients like this in recent years?"

"Yes." The doctor said seriously. "We have several new patients every week at this hospital. There are patients ranging from children to elders. The patients are not connected to one another, and their families have no mental history..."

Han Fei was silent after hearing that.

These patients could be Dream's targets. Their lives might turn out like that cleaner and become a small fragment.

"Perhaps I can help them in real life to prevent the tragedy from happening." Han Fei talked for a long time with the doctor. Han Fei asked the doctor and nurse to look after Bai Guoguo. He sent the info he had on Butterfly Syndrome to Li Xue's superior. He hoped that the patients' lives could be changed so that they wouldn't be consumed by despair.

The police were extremely busy. Even though Li Xue's superior trusted Han Fei, he was unwilling to send out people to look after these crazy people.

Han Fei viewed these patiently seriously. He believed that once these patients were saved in real life, the nightmare would be less powerful in the game!

Han Fei contacted Du Jing. Immortal Pharma had many brain experts because they had been doing internal experiments on brain surgery and immortality. To help atone for the company's sin, Du Jing constructed 27 treatment groups. They entered various hospitals to help patients with Butterfly Syndrome. The police had to deal with the three organizations; Deep Space Tech had to deal with the hackers and help the police rescue the trapped players; Immortal Pharma became free because Gao Xing had died.

Fu Tian's children were investigated by the police. Du Jing came out to take over the situation. She weakened Dream by treating the patients. There was one thing that surprised Han Fei. Du Jing was already paving Han Fei's way to enter Immortal Pharma. The treatment group was built using Han Fei's name. The company's new goal was to heal and help everyone.

Han Fei did everything he could.

After the day darkened, Han Fei and Huang Yin came to Shen Luo's home. The police notified Deep Space Tech. Deep Space Tech gave Shen Luo a spot to enter the game too.

"Xiao Shen, do you feel better?" Han Fei placed the fruit basket beside the bed. He was filled with 'worry'.

"There's pain everywhere but thank you for saving me. I feel like you've saved me many times already. Can you give me a chance to repay you? How about I help you with the stocks?" Shen Luo said weakly. His body was wrapped in bandages.

"That's fine, but I do need your help. There's a small problem with Perfect Life. We need you to log into the game to help." Han Fei was quite embarrassed, but thankfully, Shen Luo volunteered his help.

"No problem. I've been meaning to enter the game to loosen the pain in my body." Shen Luo was very happy. "I was afraid the doctor won't let me."

When Perfect Life had a problem, Shen Luo was sacrificed by Gao Xing. When the police arrived, Shen Luo lost consciousness due to blood loss.

"Think about it carefully." Huang Yin was impressed by Shen Luo's determination. He held a special gaming helmet. This helmet had a number. It was made by Deep Space Tech. One could log into the game at any time.

"Xin Lu is lucky to have heroes like you." Han Fei gave Shen Luo a thumbs up. "When you enter the game, we'll gather before Absolute Truth's base at the main hub."

"Absolute Truth?" Shen Luo remembered that Huang Yin came from another guild, but he only nodded.

"Okay. Call the doctor." Han Fei waved outside. "Shen Luo is a special case. He won't enter the game with the other players. I have a special mission for him." Han Fei was scared that Shen Luo might curse Huang Yin and the internal players of Deep Space Tech, so he kindly had Shen Luo enter the game before everyone else.

The doctor removed the bandage around Shen Luo's head. He carefully put the helmet on Shen Luo.

Seeing the pity and admiration in the doctor's eyes, Shen Luo moved his neck with difficulty. He asked Han Fei, "You said there's a small problem with the game. What is it?"

"It's not anything serious." Han Fei connected the last wire. "After you log into the game, you can't quit."

"Ah?"

The helmet was activated. Han Fei and Huang Yin couldn't hear what Shen Luo said.

"Shen Luo was first turned into a sacrifice by the three organizations and was almost decapitated by Gao Xing. Now that Perfect Life is in danger, he willingly enters the game. He might be unlucky, but he is a man of justice." Han Fei opened the fruit basket. He took out the apples for him and Huang Yin. "Fruits can't be placed for long. Don't waste them."
