My Iyashikei Game

“Fu Sheng has created so many helmets, and each of them appears to have been used.” Han Fei took down No. 1 helmet. “The inside is heavily damaged. The coagulated pieces should be blood and flesh. Who did Fu Sheng put this helmet on?”

Han Fei wanted to know who was as ‘lucky’ as he was.

“Some of the helmets can still be used. They appear to retain some things. Do you want to try them?” Du Jing looked at Han Fei kindly. She was very curious too.

“I…” Han Fei wasn’t afraid of Pure Hatred, but he was afraid of putting on strange helmets. After some hesitations, Han Fei decided to give it a try. He carried the heavy No. 1 helmet and lay on the surgical table. He connected all the wires. When all the lights came on, he slowly put the helmet on. His world was dark and had nothing. Han Fei felt like he was trapped inside a dark room. He had no idea how big the room was and why the room was built.

Han Fei opened his arms and couldn’t touch anything, but he could hear someone whispering. He couldn’t hear it clearly. Han Fei moved toward the sound of the voice. There seemed to be another person in the dark. He stood facing Han Fei. He could see everything about Han Fei, but Han Fei couldn’t see anything about him.

“Fu Sheng?” Han Fei tried to call the man. The shadow didn’t respond. He stood there and stared at Han Fei. He didn’t move, but no matter how Han Fei tried to move forward, he couldn’t get close to the shadow. They could see each other, but they could never touch each other. Several minutes later, Du Jing forced Han Fei to exit the game because she was worried. “What did you see?”

“There is a shadow standing in a completely dark room. He didn’t hurt me and just stood there looking at me.” Han Fei was confused. “Is he Fu Sheng? Why didn’t he speak?”

“Do you want to try another helmet?”

“Okay.” Han Fei became braver. Other than a few helmets that couldn’t work, Han Fei tried almost all the helmets with Du Jing’s helmet. Each helmet had a dark room. There was a shadow standing in each other.

“This is the last helmet.” Han Fei came to the back of the shelf. He took out the last gaming helmet from the metallic box. The helmet looked brand new. Its number was 99. He connected the wires. Han Fei lay on the surgical table. His consciousness soon entered another mental room.

“Huh?” The 99th room was different from the others. The room was bloodred in color. Han Fei felt like he had been drawn into someone’s mind.

“Since you’re here, it means that I’m fully dead, and my trace has been wiped out; it also means that you’ve gained the approval of all the ghosts and passed all the tests…” Fu Sheng’s voice came from the distance. Han Fei raised his head. A giant shadow stood beside the giant lab table. His body and face had been wiped away. Only a blurry shadow remained.

“This is an Easter Egg I created. It’s something I made before I became an unmentionable. It’s a surprise I left for you.” The shadow looked at Han Fei. It didn’t know how to communicate. It would only know how to recite things it had memorized.

“You must have suffered a lot to reach this spot. You’ve suffered a lot of physical and mental pain. I know how difficult it must have been. Even I have wanted to get revived through you but from the results, it looks like I have failed.

“For me, this ending is despairing, but I’m already used to despair.”

The shadow slowly approached and stopped beside Han Fei. He looked at Han Fei like he was looking at hope.

“We haven’t had a real chat, and I have never asked for your opinion. I even made your life darker. I thought of many apologies and tried to change fate, but in the end, I couldn’t do anything. Actually, I hope you wouldn’t walk my old path. You should go further to see more things. I’ll leave the future to you. You’re the most special of all the black box users. Everyone believes you can open the last layer of the box.”

The shadow continued to walk toward Han Fei. He bumped into Han Fei. He walked into Han Fei’s soul and didn’t leave.

“He disappeared?!” While Han Fei was confused, the red room dimmed. The shadows, consumed by fate, walked towards him. Everyone had embraced the deepest despair, but everyone had hope. They left no trace in this world. Their shadows were just symbolic. After the first shadow entered Han Fei’s body, the shadows brushed past Han Fei and completely disappeared. Han Fei looked at everything blankly. The shadows appeared to be former owners of the black box. They appeared before Han Fei and disappeared behind him. Everyone wanted to do something for Han Fei.

The black box in the back of the head slowly opened. Destruction and salvation appeared at the same time. Various presences appeared in Han Fei. He seemed to be the heir selected by the past black box owners. The ghost tattoo on his body became complicated. It was like the world's most beautiful and sad picture. The room disappeared, and the sun shone into the heart again. Han Fei removed Helmet 99. He tried to put on the other helmets. All the shadows in the other rooms had disappeared.

“Only the people in the darkest despair can possess the black box, but the former owners used the gentlest method to pass on the hope to the next heir.” Han Fei sat on the surgical table. After he gained the help of the former owners, their traces disappeared. They seemed like they had never existed. No one would remember them. Even Han Fei only knew Fu Sheng. The layers of the black box opened, but there was still a black box in Han Fei’s head. He still didn’t know what was inside the box.

“Han Fei, what did you see?” Du Jing saw Han Fei had such a complicated expression for the first time. freёweɓnovel.com

“We’re all people in despair, so why do you still believe in hope?” Han Fei pulled down the helmet.

“I don’t know, but you’re such a person to me.” Du Jing smiled as she looked at Han Fei. “No matter the result, you’ve already done the rest. Others wouldn’t reach the state you did.”

“That’s true. Fu Sheng was still hesitating in the apartment when he was level 18, but I was already tackling Pure Hatreds…” Han Fei left the room. “At first, I treated him as the riddle of the whole world, but later I found out that he had handed the key to becoming God to me.” Du Jing saw everything Han Fei had done. She saw another person on him. “Let’s go. You’re still young. There’s no reason to be hung up on the past.”

Han Fei mentioned another thing once they left the No. 0 lab. “Immortal Pharma has the best biotech. Can you help me make a special gaming hub where you can move a living brain into Perfect Life?”

“We had attempted that a few years ago. Technically, that is not hard, but we need the info of the brain and the permission from Deep Space Tech to enter the game.” Du Jing led Han Fei to another lab.

“The owner of the brain and I joined the same batch of persona experiments. His number was 2. If there’s no problem, I’ll bring him here today.” Han Fei needed No. 2’s help.

“Someone who has participated in the persona experiment with you?!” Du Jing didn’t want too many people to know about that experiment. She paused and then said, “I’ll help you deal with everything but don’t tell anyone else about this.”

“Don’t worry. My lips are sealed.” Han Fei and the worker left in the special van. They brought No. 2’s brain to Du Jing’s lab. Several experts worked together to send No. 2’s consciousness into Perfect Life. While the experts were busy, Han Fei was not idle either. Based on Zhang Mingli’s clues, he came somewhere in the old city. The buildings here were still the same as a few decades ago. However, it was very warm. Han Fei stopped before an apartment with a yard. The yard was filled with flowers. There were several elders playing cards. The pace here was slow and very comfortable.

Han Fei came to the third floor. Han Fei knocked on the door, and a middle-aged woman simply dressed walked out. Her actual age should be quite high, but she looked young. The woman was a kind and gentle person, but there was deep pain in her eyes. She didn’t show it because she didn’t want to affect others.

“Are you Xuan Xiaoxiao?” Compared to the nightmare, the woman was more mature.

“Yes.” The woman nodded.

“Look at me. Do you think you’ve seen me inside your dream before? The things I will say next are very important to you.” Han Fei pointed at his face.

The woman frowned. She thought Han Fei was being very impolite. She was about to close the door when she realized Han Fei’s face was quite familiar.

“I was in the same car with Zhang Mingli. He was injured. It was me who drove him to you.” Han Fei only said Zhang Mingli’s name, and the woman’s hidden emotions frayed.

Han Fei continued when she calmed down. He told her everything about Zhang Mingli to prove that he was not a scammer. “I can bring you to him, but you can’t leave Perfect Life after you enter it now. In the future…”

“It doesn’t matter.” The woman ran into the house and came out with her bank cards. Nowadays, not that many people use physical cards now. “These are my savings. It should be enough for a game, right?”

“Aren’t you afraid that I’m a scammer?” Han Fei looked into the woman’s room. It was simple. The wall had many pictures between her and her students. The teacher helped many students. “I have another gaming set at my home. I’ll give you one. I’ll try to get you into the game as soon as possible.”

After getting her permission, Han Fei fetched her to the nearest lab. He had the woman’s hub close to No. 2. This way, even if she couldn’t leave the game, someone would look after her.

Then, Han Fei ran to the police station. He was Li Xue’s teacher’s last student. Even if the police were busy, they would always have time for him.

Han Fei shared the info about the 11 makers with the police. Then, he asked for an update about the things he had givne the police that morning. The info from the surface world was heavily valued by Deep Space Tech. Relevant departments were researching it through the night. As time passed, the situation at Xin Lu became unstable. More players had brain damage. Their families were worried and afraid.

Evil people used this to create public pressure. The paradise became a death trap. Many people could not escape that.

The longer this was delayed, the worse it looked for the police.

Han Fei could feel the changes too. It had only been a few days, but the night at Xin Lu became so much quieter.
