555: Chapter 555: The Warst Mont 555: Chapter 555: The Warst Mont “Player ID 0000, please note!
The ‘Righteous Hero’ title effect has been successfully activated, you have saved the sick girl and earned a large amount of experience rewards.”
The system’s prompt echoed in his ears, but Han Fei’s attention was entirely focused on the girl.
“Is your na Fu Yi?”
The girl’s na sounded the sa as Fu Yi, and her surna was also the sa; it was highly likely that she was Fu Yi’s illegitimate daughter.
Originally squatting on the ground, Han Fei felt sowhat dizzy.
His legs softened, and he sat down directly on the floor of the rental room.
In the past, when he faced female friends who wanted to kill him, he kept reassuring himself that everything would be fine once he got through this, that there could be no more difficult situations than these.
It took a Herculean effort to drain his Master-level Acting to barely stabilize the situation, only for fate to gift him another “surprise”; no new woman appeared, but a girl did.
Big eyes staring at small eyes, Han Fei looked at the girl who had tried to kill him several tis, with a very complex expression.
“I see your leg muscles are atrophied, you can’t walk normally.
What kind of illness is this?”
“Progressive Muscular Dystrophy.
The doctor said it’s caused by a genetic mutation,” the girl optimistically said, not losing faith in life because of her illness.
She not only fought against her illness but had a particularly kind heart, as proven by her attempt to rescue the injured stray cat despite the risks.
“How much money is needed to cure this illness?”
“I don’t know, my mom never told .
She just asked not to worry, saying it seems to gradually get better.”
With that, Han Fei outwardly sighed in relief, his face breaking into a smile, while he secretly took out his phone to check.
Progressive Muscular Dystrophy is irreversible.
Many children who suffer from the disease gradually lose their ability to move, and as the disease worsens, most of them leave the world in their twenties due to respiratory failure or heart failure.
In other words, once diagnosed with this disease, life has essentially begun its countdown.
Activating the Master-level Acting mode in his mind, Han Fei’s expression remained unchanged, but his fingers clasping the phone turned sowhat pale.
“When will your mom co back?”
“I don’t know.
She just brought here a while ago, saying that it’s easier to find work and the treatnt conditions are better in the big city.
These past few days, she’s been leaving early and returning late, working very hard,” the girl said, showing concern for her mother.
Her eyes filled with self-bla: “If it weren’t for , mom definitely would be living a happier life.”
“You must not think like that.”
“I know.” The girl smiled at Han Fei, her smile especially sweet: “So I will try hard to get better soon and take good care of her when I grow up.”
Han Fei didn’t speak and gently tidied the girl’s ssy hair.
The girl did not resist.
It was as if she had seen Han Fei sowhere before; when speaking with Han Fei, her voice was very gentle, as though she feared that Han Fei would suddenly leave.
“This is the place!
Boss!
Hurry up here!” Noisy footsteps ca from outside, and the hotel front desk staff along with a couple ran up to the fourth floor.
They were holding mops and brooms, warily staring at Han Fei.
“I should probably go now, this is my mobile number, call if you run into any trouble.
Once I have dealt with the things around , I will co back to find you.” Han Fei picked up a pen and paper, wrote down his mobile number, and then raised both hands as he walked towards the door, “Don’t misunderstand, I have no ill intentions.
I just saw that girl downstairs in danger, so I rushed up to save her.
I will compensate you for the damaged door lock.”
“Don’t be violent!
Don’t be violent!
I can prove it!
This man is an undercover officer from the police station!
He was the one who saved that child just now.” The middle-aged bookstore boss ran upstairs, gasping for breath, “It’s lucky soone was at ho, otherwise there would have been another casualty in this building.”
Han Fei didn’t bother to argue with the motel boss.
After paying for the lock, he returned to the girl’s side, “Do you rember the student who ca looking for you today?
Where did he go after he left?”
“My mother didn’t take his money and even scolded him.
In the end, he secretly left the money and left.
I don’t know where he went.” The girl recalled for a mont, “He was very sad when he left, you should spend more ti with him.”
“I will.” Han Fei was anxious to find Fu Sheng, so he left before the girl’s mother returned.
He ran out of the alley, estimating the ti since Fu Sheng had left, “Fu Yi is most likely Fu Yi’s illegitimate daughter, and Fu Sheng might know about it.
He might have co here trying to prevent so tragedy.”
In Mirror God’s world, he inhabited Mirror God’s body, and he was the protagonist; but in Fu Sheng’s mory World, Fu Sheng was the protagonist, and he was just the one who might change Fu Sheng’s fate.
The current Han Fei had made choices in reality that Fu Yi had not made, causing so deviations in the Shrine mory World.
Having completed the Shrine Inheritance Task before, Han Fei was well aware that it was the countless insignificant changes that ultimately reversed fate.
“Fu Sheng wanted to try doing certain things, but obviously he failed.
Heartbroken and in pain, he didn’t go to school but went sowhere else instead.”
His wife called the police, but since Fu Sheng was already eighteen and had not been missing for more than twelve hours, they did not open a case.
The school had never liked Fu Sheng and they were also reluctant to cooperate in searching for him, passing the buck back and forth.
Luckily, Han Fei never counted on those people from the start.
He walked out of the alley, stepping into Fu Sheng’s emotions, considering things from Fu Sheng’s perspective, and step by step, traced back through the street shop’s surveillance videos, ultimately arriving at a little hill behind the school.
It was already dark, and the place was secluded, hardly seeing anyone exercising there.
Normally, the school strictly forbade students from going to the hills behind.
“The last ti he appeared on surveillance was here.
Did he want to be alone for a while?”
Standing in the hills behind, one could overlook the campus and the buildings around, and could also see the students inside the school.
Turning on the flashlight attached to his phone, Han Fei climbed the stairs, not shouting for Fu Sheng but instead sprinting upwards continually.
For so reason, he felt that Fu Sheng should be here.
After running up countless steps, Han Fei reached the highest point of the hills behind, where a viewing platform was under construction.
The railing had just been installed, and beside it on the high platform hung the only light available.
Under the dim light, a student in a school uniform was leaning on the railing, his newly changed school uniform already crumpled, and his backpack filled with textbooks and various papers lay on the ground.
Seeing that the child was not injured, Han Fei’s heart settled back in his stomach.
He didn’t shout out loud, instead took out his phone to send a ssage to his wife, then silently walked up beside Fu Sheng.
He looked into the distance, seeing the view that Fu Sheng had seen.
The city lights below the mountain were brightly lit.
Students who should have been eating dinner were moving freely around the campus.
So were running or playing ball on the sports field, so were studying hard in their classrooms, and so couples had purposefully sought out unlit areas to stroll together.
It seed like everyone was engaged in their own activities, each with their own reasons for existing.
Fu Sheng heard footsteps and turned his head to look.
When he realized his father had found him, several different emotions flashed through his eyes.
There was disdain for Fu Sheng, an indescribable pain, and a trace of relief.
He now felt conflicted, desiring solitude yet fearing loneliness, hating his father yet also wanting to be found by his family.
“I’m sorry, I skipped class again.”
It was a long while before Fu Sheng spoke.
He didn’t look at Han Fei; his eyes were fixed on the other students in the campus.
“It’s okay.” Han Fei didn’t just offer empty consolation; he genuinely understood Fu Sheng’s pain, more deeply than anyone else in the world.
Hearing his father’s reply brought a unique feeling to Fu Sheng’s heart.
His father had been impulsive and selfish in the past, blaming everyone but himself, but now he seed to have changed.
The evening breeze blew between the father and son, seemingly carrying sothing away with it and bringing them a bit closer together.
“They all seem happy, always ready to smile.” Fu Sheng’s gaze remained on those students.
He had no lofty demands; he simply wanted to live a life like everyone else.
“I smile every day.
Guess whether I’m happy or not?”
Han Fei rested his hands on the railings, watching the campus with Fu Sheng.
He didn’t have children and didn’t know how to be an exemplary father.
At tis, he even acted like a big boy himself.
Neither father nor son said much more.
They just watched the city in the night until Han Fei’s phone rang – his wife was calling him again.
“We should head back, don’t keep the family waiting.” Han Fei picked up Fu Sheng’s backpack.
“Let’s go, we’ll eat out tonight.”
Han Fei was among the best actors of the younger generation, but in this mont, he wasn’t using his acting skills to play the role of a father; he was just being himself.
Because he wanted to leave behind so genuine mories for Fu Sheng in the limited ti of life.
This ti, Fu Sheng didn’t make any drastic movents.
He quietly followed behind Han Fei.
The father and son descended the mountain and t up with a deeply anxious wife.
Unlike the always composed Han Fei, his wife ran straight to Fu Sheng as soon as she saw him.
Tears were already falling as she grabbed his arm and checked his body, displaying a kind of worry that could not be feigned.
She was like a real mother to Fu Sheng.
“Let’s go; we’ll eat sothing nice today!” Han Fei looked at his wife and Fu Sheng, leading his family to a very nice restaurant.
“Isn’t this place a bit expensive?” After looking at the nu, his wife nudged Han Fei quietly.
“Maybe we should go sowhere else.”
“Let’s stick with this one, after all, today is a very special day for .” Han Fei replied with a smile, looking at Fu Yi’s family mbers.
“Did you get a promotion?
Did that ga ask you to work again?” His wife was also happy for Han Fei.
“No, today is a day for our family to eat together.” Han Fei lifted Fu Tian into his seat and then gazed at Fu Sheng and his wife, his heart beginning to fill with emotion, as he had thought this day would be far off.
Finally, the family was sitting together.
This could be said to be the happiest mont for Han Fei since entering the Shrine mory World.
As delicious dishes were served at the table during a reunion of Han Fei’s family, in a dilapidated hotel, a mother and daughter sat facing each other on a bed.
“You got scared today, didn’t you?” The mother was sewing the girl’s coat that had been scraped.
“Not really.” The girl seed quite cheerful.
“Mom, I think I saw Dad today.”
At the ntion of ‘Dad,’ the woman’s warm expression instantly changed.
She put down her sewing, her voice cold: “Don’t talk nonsense.”
“It’s true!
He looked just like he does in the photos!” The girl struggled to reach for a piece of paper with a phone number on it from the table.
“He saved today, and the old man in the bookstore said he is a policeman!”
“A policeman?” Hearing this profession, the woman seed to understand sothing: “It seems you really mistook soone else.
A selfish and cowardly man like him could never beco a policeman in this lifeti.”
“If you don’t believe it, you can call this number; it’s the one Dad left behind.” The girl handed over the paper to the woman.
The woman caressed her daughter’s head affectionately, thinking her daughter mistook the policeman who saved her for her father because she lacked a father’s love.
“You try calling it!”
“Okay, I’ll call right now and also properly thank him.” The woman took out her phone.
Before she could dial, a call from Doctor Du Shu at the hospital ca through.
The phone ringing, the woman stuffed the piece of paper into her coat’s left pocket and rushed out of the house, only daring to answer after she had distanced herself from her daughter: “Doctor Du Shu, is there still hope for my daughter’s condition?”
“There is hope, but it requires a lot of money.”
“Can you treat her first?
I’ll figure out the money slowly.”
“I’m afraid that’s not possible.” From the other end of the phone, Doctor Du Shu’s voice erged: “I heard from your debtors that your husband is a high-ranking executive in a big company.
They lent you money because they trusted your word.
If you truly love your daughter, why don’t you ask the child’s father for help?
Blood is thicker than water; he wouldn’t stand by idly and not help.”
“I don’t want to beg him, could you please give so more ti?”
“No one is asking you to beg him.
If his daughter is sick, shouldn’t he pay for her treatnt?
What kind of father behaves like that?” Doctor Du Shu’s voice gradually grew harsher: “I suggest you go to his company tomorrow.
In public, he surely won’t be able to deny the debt.”
“I’ll think about it.”
“Can your considerations change the girl’s condition?
The optimal treatnt ti has already been delayed.” Doctor Du Shu sounded impatient: “Our hospital beds are also very limited; I kept one reserved for you out of pity.
You’d better co up with the money within three days.”
“I will definitely co up with the money, thank you, Doctor Du.” The woman wanted to say more, but the call was abruptly ended.
She stood in the run-down corridor of the hotel, and after a long ti, she finally pulled out a handful of change and a business card from the right pocket.
The business card bore the na Fu Yi, as well as his company’s address and contact number.
