602 Xu Qin's Dining Table
The phone that only had one contact received a ssage. Fu Sheng read the ssage his father sent him, and he rembered sothing. This was not the first ti he saw that young man!
After he knew his father was gone, he ran away from ho and the young man was standing outside his neighborhood. When he was at the hospital, sitting alone on the steps, the young man was arguing with the guards at the corner. When he was walking among the crowd, soone called his na. He looked around and couldn’t see that person. When he turned to the voice, he saw Fu Tian’s mother. As he walked towards her, he brushed past the young man.
Holding the phone, Fu Sheng got up and looked out the garden. The sun showered on the whole world. The young man disappeared, bringing all the darkness and despair with him.
“Move forward, go further…” Fu Sheng held the phone his father got him and rembered this lesson. He picked up his bag, ran to the bus stop. This was his last ti skipping school.
“As unwilling as I am, it’s ti to go.” Han Fei stood in the shadow and watched the bus drive away. He used Fu Sheng’s talent, Resurrection when he was inside the abyss. His consciousness was attached to the black box. After a long process, his soul returned to his body. Han Fei, who was resurrected, didn’t see Fu Yi’s wives and girlfriends, they had all left. Then again, it didn’t matter if he saw them again. Fu Yi was already dead. Han Fei returned as his real self.
He was like a stranger and used the last few monts he had to observe his wife, Fu Tian, Fu Yee, and Fu Sheng from afar. After the lights went out, Han Fei returned to the hospital to help Du Jing’s daughter. Her young daughter was already an old lady. It was the players at Building Two who saved her.
Then, Han Fei took the ti to visit Brother Fake Plant. He spooked the man to his death. He personally wrote down the dating sim’s real ending.
“The ti is almost up.” Han Fei took out the black box. His left hand held the base and the right hand the top. “When I entered this mory world, I received the notification that this world contains Fu Sheng’s mory fragnt. If I handed the black box to him, it should awaken everything in him. He will rember all the pain and despair. He will tell stuff and might even help inherit the altar.
“Rationally, I should have done that. But what’s the point of encouraging this cycle of despair? He was the black box’s previous owner but I’m its current owner. As long as I continue to open the box and remove the item inside, no one will be selected by the black box anymore.” Han Fei looked at the box. His disappearing hands grabbed the box on both sides. “Who knows? Maybe like Pandora’s Box, hope is at the bottom of despair.” Before his hands disappeared, Han Fei pried the box open from both sides.
The ti of the mory world froze. Han Fei felt sothing open deep inside his soul. The black box disappeared but an intense pain gripped Han Fei’s soul.
At the sa ti, endless prayers and broken divine patterns were summoned out of the altar and crawled into his body. The love and hatred of ten Pure Hatreds surfaced on his body. The ten different personalities combined within him. At that mont, Han Fei felt like he was the altar world. He could see everything and touch fate. As he influenced the altar world, a burst of strange laughter ca from the the park. The mont it appeared, mad laughter ca from Han Fei’s mind.
“There’s sothing that could draw out the Mad Laughter at the the park? It looks like I need to investigate that altar.”
After that, other than Han Fei, all the outsiders were pushed out of the mory world. However, Han Fei only stayed slightly longer. His soul disappeared under the sun with the black box. The mory world returned to normal. Other than the strange laughter at the the park, no one realized the world had paused for a second.

…
Resisting the pain from all over his body, Han Fei realized he didn’t even have the strength to open his eyes. He listened to the summons beside his ears and slowly ca to.
The pain ca from his brain, his internal organs, and his skin. Han Fei lifted his eyelids. He was lying inside a room covered in human faces. Not far away was a collapsed altar. Han Fei imdiately took out a pig’s heart to consu it. He couldn’t lift his arm. The pig’s heart fell to the ground once he took it out of his inventory.
The faceless Doctor Yan picked up the pig’s heart. He cut it into small pieces and fed it to Han Fei. He used blood to communicate with Han Fei. “It’s good that you’re alive. The altar is ruined, we need to leave as soon as possible.”
With the Midnight Butcher’s talents, Han Fei felt better after he had the pig’s heart. He turned his neck and saw the heavily injured Big Sin lying beside him. It used his head to knock at Fu Sheng’s altar as if to see if it had missed any sacrificial food. Zhuang Wen, who basically escaped unscathed, held a woman’s head. The woman had no face. The face was cracked, and weak hatred leaked out of the gap.
“Han Fei? It is you!” The scream echoed in his ears. Shen Luo, in the patient’s garb, squeezed beside Han Fei. This was a touching reunion. Compared to Big Sin, Doctor Yan, and Zhuang Wen, Han Fei at least looked like a human.
“I can feel Pure Hatreds approaching, we can’t stay here.” Doctor Yan wiped away the blood and carried Han Fei. Bringing Shen Luo, they ran outside the hospital. Zhuang Wen held the faceless woman’s head, Big Sin carried the altar, and they ran towards the Ziggurat without hesitation. They had stolen the altar and heavily injured the faceless woman. Their goal was a success. The two other Pure Hatreds at the hospital were rushing back. They were ambushed by the Mirror God when they passed by the Midnight Mall so they were held back further. When they returned to the plastic surgery hospital, Han Fei’s group had returned to the Ziggurat’s misty zone.
“We did it!” Han Fei stared at the faceless woman’s head. He was more excited than anyone else. The hospital originally had three Pure Hatreds. After Butterfly died, the Ziggurat only had one Pure Hatred, Zhuang Wen. If the hospital launched a full-on attack, the Ziggurat would be wiped out. But the situation now had changed. When the white shoes and painter went to the the park, Han Fei ruined the faceless woman. The hospital was about as powerful as the Ziggurat now. The tenants didn’t need to live in constant fear anymore.
Even though he was severely injured, Han Fei was happy. He tried to smile until his neighbors from Happiness Neighborhood arrived. Xu Qin, Drake, and the rest ca. Only Lee Zai looked sad. “How did the manager beco sllier in just a few days? You’re so lucky.”
When Xu Qin approached them, Zhuang Wen was quite unnatural. The things that happened in the mory world flustered this Pure Hatred. She could find an excuse for Han Fei if he had one or two girlfriends but eight? She didn’t know what to say. Zhuang Wen turned to Doctor Yan for help but the doctor kept his head lowered. He didn’t have a face so he didn’t see anything.
“Building Manager!” Everyone was worried about Han Fei. Zhuang Wen and Doctor Yan led Han Fei to the Ziggurat. Big Sin carried the altar obediently and followed behind its master. Shen Luo didn’t dare to stay too far from Han Fei. The treatnt he had received at the hospital was more than he could bear. The trail of ghost at the Ziggurat was nothing for him now.
“Wait, I’ve seen that woman before!” Shen Luo looked at Xu Qin. He rembered seeing her at the art hotel. He ran into an expert player who saved them,, and he said Xu Qin was his wife. “I get it now! That expert player was Han Fei! No wonder he felt so familiar! It explains why Han Fei would save , and feed !” Shen Luo was touched. He knew how dangerous this world was but Han Fei had saved him multiple tis. He would rember this kindness forever.
The group of people ca to the largest room at the Ziggurat. Doctor Yan placed Han Fei on the large wooden dining table. He used blood to communicate with the other tenants.
“The manager building has been dismbered once already. It is kept together by the hatred of many Pure Hatreds. It is in a strange balance. His wounds will never heal if we don’t chase out the conflicting hatred. He will bleed until one of the hatreds lost control and his body will collapse. But approaching the hatreds willy-nilly might cause the body to disintegrate directly.
“I have no idea why this is happening. Normally, the hatred should have disappeared once he is out of the mory world. But this ti, they insisted on having the manager bear their hatreds…”
Doctor Yan stopped writing. He wiped all the blood away. He didn’t know how to explain where the hatred ca from.
People knew how serious the situation was after they saw Doctor Yan’s ssage.
“What did you experience at the hospital? How did he get so injured in just one night?” Xu Qin walked to Han Fei. She was worried. After she examined his injury, she turned to Zhuang Wen and Doctor Yan.
“That was the most dangerous situation I’d ever been in.” Zhuang Wen used her entire Death Curse to suppress the faceless woman. She was now exhausted. She leaned against the window and couldn’t speak anymore.
“Most dangerous situation?” Xu Qin turned to Doctor Yan. Doctor Yan lifted his blank face and stared at Xu Qin until Xu Qin frowned. “Say sothing!” Doctor Yan was like a mannequin who lost his soul. Xu Qin had to ask the others. Big Sin carried the altar, and it was highly ecstatic. It couldn’t be communicated with at all.
The curse danced in Xu Qin’s eyes. Her presence was scary as she walked towards Shen Luo. “You tell . How did this happen to Han Fei?”
Shen Luo shivered. He stamred. “Hello, big sister. We’ve t before. You must be Han Fei’s 11th wife.”
The air froze. Han Fei’s heart skipped a beat.
“Wife 11?”
When Shen Luo said that, blood trailed out Han Fei’s mouth. He dragged his broken body up. Resisting the impossible pain, he used his shaking finger to write on the table—bring him to the the park, now!
Every tenant was stunned by what Shen Luo said. Zhuang Wen climbed onto the window, and as the window opened, she fell. Doctor Yan heard the fall, and he rushed to save her. He, too, jumped out the window.
Big Sin ran around with the altar. It was so excited. It had found the perfect master!
Shen Luo knew he had said sothing wrong.
Xu Qin turned away from Shen Luo. She walked slowly to Han Fei. Her tone didn’t change much. “Don’t move. You’re injured. I know sothing through that paper doll. But I’m curious. How co my connection with that doll got severed? Did you abandon the doll I gave you?”
“You might not believe , but.” Han Fei looked at Xu Qin and said weakly, “I ate it.”
