524 Walk Out
There was a black fire in the sky and red rain before his eyes. Lingering Spirits and Pure Hatred battled it out. The world was like a kaleidoscope, fragmented and fractured like it could disappear at any moment. The emotionless eyes took in everything. The blood slid down his forehead to land on the orphanage’s cracked floor. Han Fei smiled. Every other sound was noise. He looked at the bloody orphanage and the ghosts who sacrificed themselves for a human, and he raised his left hand. The fingertips cut through the skin, and the fingers entered the flesh. Han Fei watched as warm blood flowed out of the blood vessels, and the smile on his face grew more prominent.
“Han Fei, get over here!”
“Building manager? I’ll bring you out of here!”
“Don’t stay there!”
The voices entered his ears, but Han Fei couldn’t hear anything but the laughter. His fingers gripped, and the blood flowed into the ghost tattoo. Nine Lives opened its eyes, but it was more ferocious than before. Blood dripped, and the black anaconda very astutely crawled into the ghost tattoo. As its body joined with the ghost tattoo, the shadow of a giant snake with blood scales appeared behind Han Fei. Han Fei laughed harder as his Life Points fell. The exaggerated laughter was about to tear his lips apart. The other neighbors noticed the strange way Han Fei was acting. They wanted to get close, but their instinct told them to fall back. The man before them was not Han Fei.
The fingers shoved into the chest. Han Fei’s Life Points rapidly fell. 80, 50, 30 percent! When the Life Points dropped to 5 percent, Han Fei removed his fingers from his heart. The talent of Midnight Butcher was activated. Han Fei stood where he was as he looked at his bloody fingers as he waited for the blood to drip down. Then the bloody hands grabbed Rest in Peace!
The blood dripped down the hilt. Endless voices came from the blade. All the humanity resisted. The blade shook, they wanted to escape, but they couldn’t. Staring at the trembling hilt, Han Fei laughed madly. The blade made from humanity was dyed red. All the goodness was turned red. The glowing knife was bleeding!
The warm light of the blade disappeared. The blade built on humanity and goodness surfaced with wailing souls. The monsters killed by Rest in Peace appeared. A blue butterfly with a strange pattern tried to fly away, but Han Fei squished it with one hand. The dust on the butterfly’s wings fell on the other ghosts. Rest in Peace turned entirely red. The blinding blade appeared to possess the ability to cut through the world’s unfairness and sin. Han Fei’s gaze wandered around the orphanage before it fell on Ten Fingers. He used the power of Art Appraisal. Han Fei stared at a face on the back of Ten Fingers’ heart. He retreated half a step and gripped the blade with both hands.
“Speed up.” Han Fei used Cursed Words on himself. The curse crawled on his body. They encased into his flesh like black chains. “Speed up.” The curse covered all of his body, but he didn’t mind. His laugh grew wilder. “Speed up.” The ghost tattoo and curse mixed together. The words with the curse of death were carved into his body. The flesh under his skin was cursed. “Speed up!” When he used the ability for the 4th time, Han Fei’s skin cracked. The giant snake behind him struggled.
Indescribable pain shot through the body. When his Life Points was only 3 percent, Han Fei chuckled loudly. “Speed up!” Ghost tattoo and the curse collapsed, and Han Fei chose this moment to move towards Ten Fingers. There was no fear in the human’s eyes as he moved towards the Pure Hatred. There was only madness. The legs raised, and Han Fei was already beside Ten Fingers when they fell!
No one realized anything, not even Ten Fingers, who was fighting with Xu Qin. He did notice the strange behavior of Han Fei, but he believed he had control of everything. Han Fei was already behind him when he realized things were not right. The face on the back of his heart looked on with fear. He didn’t have the time to block with hatred, and his eyes were already pouring red.
At that moment, the Blood-red Night descended in Ten Fingers’ eyes. The blade pierced through Ten Fingers’ face and Ten Fingers’ Pure Hatred heart. When Ten Fingers felt the seed of the black flame being destroyed, he only realized what had happened. He opened his eyes, and there was a figure standing in the blood-red night. His eyes saw the man, but he had already lost the ability to memorize the man. All the screaming souls entered Ten Fingers’ body. The giant body made from human skulls collapsed. The ground shook, and all the voices disappeared. Many eyes turned to Han Fei. A living human had just vanquished a Pure Hatred. He laughed madly like he was mocking this world covered in darkness.
“Building manager?” Drake wanted to approach, but he was stopped by Lee Zai.
“Don’t go near him first. Lee Zai was shocked. He couldn’t imagine that it would be Han Fei who killed Ten Fingers! He is not acting right!”
The neighbors surrounded him, but no one got close to him. While everyone was focusing on Han Fei, Xu Qin crawled up from the ruin of the underground orphanage. Hundreds of curses bound around her. Rationality was gone from her eyes. Every curse was torturing her, empowering her!
The pressure crashed at them. Weep at the back of the group pulled on Lee Zai and Drake’s clothes. Lee Zai was shocked when he turned around. “What to do? Even the both of us can’t defeat her!”
The curses exploded on Xu Qin. Her sole purpose in life was to consume more curses and spread those curses. The neighbors tried to stop her, but they were injured from the fight with Ten Fingers. All they could do was try to stop Xu Qin from getting close to Han Fei. But to their surprise, even after she lost her rationality, Xu Qin still only had her eyes on Han Fei. Dragging her curses, she moved towards Han Fei. Looking at the Curse Amalgamation, Han Fei laughed and walked towards her with Rest in Peace.
1 step, 2 steps, when he wanted to take the 3rd step, something within him awakened. The smile on his face became more regular, and something was changing in his eyes. Han Fei stopped, but Xu Qin didn’t. The curses were about to arrive, Han Fei tried to raise Rest in Peace. The blood-red knife became the point of contention for both parties. The red on the blade receded. Then the souls of kindness and humanity reached out of the blade to hold Han Fei’s hands. The arm that held the blade lowered. The smile on Han Fei’s lightened and then finally disappeared. Han Fei collapsed to the side. The black shadow slithered out from behind Han Fei. The anaconda that had become smaller joined the souls from Rest in Peace to hold up Han Fei. Different Blood-red Nights and different results.
Han Fei’s eyes returned to normal. He would feel fear and despair, but no matter what, his eyes would carry kindness and warmth, and most importantly, hope. He took out a pig’s heart and tossed it into his mouth. When Han Fei lifted his head, Xu Qin was already beside him. Each curse could kill Han Fei, but Han Fei didn’t feel fear.
When the curses approached Han Fei, they would skirt around him. Xu Qin struggled as she tried to control the curses. She couldn’t retain her full rationality, but she wouldn’t let her curses harm this man before him. Out of trust, Han Fei reached for the table knife on Xu Qin’s chest. The knife’s hilt was covered by a human skin doily. This knife had both of their memories.
Slowly removing the knife, Han Fei’s eyes filled with apology. Standing among the curses, he slowly helped Xu Qin find her rationality. Only he could do something like this. When the last table knife was removed, Xu Qin collapsed weakly. Han Fei quickly took out the meat from his inventory. They sat on Ten Fingers’ carcass and consumed all the meat from Han Fei’s inventory. The other neighbors didn’t disturb them.
“Are the meat that delicious?” Weep asked.
“It depends on who you have it with.” Lee Zai his head. “You’re still young to understand these.”
“Sometimes I will feel alone, but when I stand beside Ying Yue, I’ll feel less lonely. Is that the same?” Weep wanted to know the answer, but Lee Zai was in no mood to answer him. “Why do you people from Building 1 keep coming to annoy me? There is nothing I hate more than a happy ending.” Lee Zai glared at Weep. “The two of you are younger than 12 years old when added together, so you shouldn’t play together too often. When a boy plays too often with a girl, he’ll turn into a girl.”
Drake pulled Lee Zai along and walked towards Han Fei. “Boss, are you alright? Just now, the presence on you changed. It was like you were a different person altogether…”
“It’s hard to explain. When Xu Qin and I recover, we need to leave as soon as possible.” Han Fei knew Drake was only worried about him, but there were certain things that he couldn’t say.
When his neighbors fought with Ten Fingers, the blood-red orphanage was triggered. It wanted to dominate Han Fei’s mind to turn it all red. Han Fei found it hard to resist because the situation was not going well for them. Therefore, he joined forces with his Evil Soul to reveal the laughter. Compared to being killed by Ten Fingers, it was better to be controlled by the Laughter. However, Han Fei still underestimated the laugher. The laughter didn’t even leave the Blood-red Orphanage. After the chain of memory was released, the blood-red orphanage surfaced to the top of Han Fei’s memory. The laughter in the orphanage only glanced at Han Fei, and their eyes were joined together. In other words, the current Han Fei couldn’t even overcome a gaze from the laughter.
When Han Fei lost control, the Laughter was using Han Fei’s body. Typically, it would be hard for Han Fei to regain control of his body, but thankfully the humanity in Rest in Peace was on Han Fei’s side. Everyone worked to control the laughter’s gaze. The Evil, Kind Souls and childhood memory picked up the chain of memory again.
“Rest in Peace is my most important item. It can help me kill the enemy and suppress the laughter. I need to find ways to strengthen it, to find more people to join me!” Han Fei could finally walk again after sharing all the meat with Xu Qin. The other neighbors shared the things left behind by Ten Fingers, including the stuff he stole from Midnight Mall and the black seed of hatred.
Drake carried Han Fei deep into the orphanage. They pushed open the different doors. They passed through the old cardboard houses and reached the innermost corner.
“The white house has been fully dyed red. Everyone at the orphanage has been killed by the doll. Are you here?” Han Fei shouted, but no one answered. He had Drake pick up the red house, and there was nothing inside. “The boy has escaped?”
Han Fei didn’t stay underground. After his neighbors digested Ten Fingers, they immediately returned to the surface. The familiar stink entered the nostrils. The eerie orphanage was covered in blood. At the center of the blood pool was a large doll.
“I chose to walk out.” The doll turned to look at Han Fei. Underneath the doll was a thin boy, he looked just like the boy from Seaglass Cat’s picture. The boy removed the doll outfit and walked out. He wore a pair of white shoes that couldn’t be dyed red by blood. He wore a uniform with the number 024.
