314 That Is Not the Way to Use a Dress

After 4.44 am, the building did change, which was verified by the fact that Han Fei managed to activate 2 Grade F Hidden Missions within a short amount of time. That was the problem. Patrol and enter Room 1244 sounded like simple missions, but the simpler the mission looked, the more worried Han Fei was. He knew how difficult Grade F Missions were. The simplicity was often just a disguise.

“She’s coming!” Han Fei gritted his teeth. The woman jumped down and would kill everything that she saw. She cleansed the building floor by floor and the only solution was to hide inside Room 1244. Room 1244 was one of the 3 most dangerous rooms at Building 1 but now Han Fei had no other choices, it was that or death!

Only by completing the mission could he leave the game. For someone who might not even see the sun rise another day, survival was most important. Brother Hwa and Xiao Fang originally didn’t realize the severity of the situation, but when they saw Han Fei charge ahead without concern regarding the possibility of opening his wounds, their fear was totally evoked. Fear was a contagious thing. After the horrors that they had experienced that night, they were already at their limits. Even though they still had doubts, their bodies moved involuntarily and ran even faster than Han Fei.

They charged all the way to the 17th floor. Han Fei grabbed the banister and looked down again, it almost caused him to lose his soul. The arm which was originally at 8th floor was now at 11th floor, she was moving faster and faster. As if realizing her prey was getting away, she sped up.

“Don’t just charge ahead blindly! We’re not supposed to go to the higher floors!” Brother Hwa said anxiously. When he reached the landing between 17th and 18th floor, he tried his best to stop Han Fei and Xiao Fang, “If the safety door on the 18th floor is open, we’ll have to go down the corridor and continue our ascend using the other stairwell!” Xiao Fang was too busy running to pay attention to him; Han Fei did hear him but he couldn’t afford to stop now. The voice-activated lights on the 17th floor went out and the flashlight rays flickered in the dark. When the rays lit up the 18th floor, the 3 guards saw that the safety door was left wide open. The safety door of the 18th floor was different because it was filled with all kinds of strange talismans. “Stop! We need to stop!” When he saw the open safety door, Brother Hwa shouted urgently, but Han Fei and Xiao Fang who ran ahead of him had no intention of stopping. They soon blasted through the 18th floor but just as they attempted to run towards the 19th floor, they discovered a thin middle-aged man standing in the middle of the stairwell. The man was dressed in white mourning clothes and a pile of paper money crowded around him. Xiao Fang had never seen this man before so he halted but Han Fei couldn’t care less. He spread the red dress wide. “Brother, let me give you some red in your life!”

Holding the red dress with both hands, Han Fei continued his charge forward. He was risking his life. As long as he could exit the game, he’d do anything. As Han Fei barrelled forward, the middle-aged man stepped to the side; but when Xiao Fang ran past him, the man suddenly reached out to stop him. “Quick, give him something!” Brother Hwa shouted behind him but it was already too late. The man had reached his hand before Xiao Fang’s chest. The man didn’t do anything but Xiao Fang suddenly crumbled like wet laundry.

When Brother Hwa saw this, he pulled out a stack of paper money and threw it into the air. As the middle-aged man lowered his head to pick up the money that dropped to the floor, Brother Hwa dragged Xiao Fang and ran. As his head bumped into the sharp corner of the step, Xiao Fang finally woke up. He asked in a shaking voice, “Why am I on the floor?”

“A greedy businessman once lived in Room 1184. He found a sensei who told him that the room would bring him so much wealth that he’d die from it! And a few days after he moved in, he did die. Then people kept seeing him in the stairwell!” Brother Hwa helped Xiao Fang up from the ground. “If you don’t give him money, he’ll follow you home and take your life instead!” Xiao Fang shivered. When he turned back to look, the middle-aged man had disappeared but the paper money was still there. “Room 1184 is very haunted. According to rumors, the sensei who recommended the businessman the room was Room 1184’s original owner, but he was already dead when the businessman met him. We all believe the businessman ran into a ghost and was made into a scapegoat.” Brother Hwa said. He was worried that Han Fei and Xiao Fang would tumble into more troubles. “You guys have to be careful.”

“Now is not the time to be careful. If you’re too slow, you’ll lose your life.” Han Fei was the first to reach the 19th floor. The red dress helped him scare away the middle-aged man but the thing inside the dress seemed to sense it and was awakening. When she knew she had been used as a prop by Han Fei, she’d kill him. There was a jumper ghost chasing after him, he was holding the red dress and there were unknown threats upstairs, everything turned for the worse too quickly. As Han Fei raced for his life, his brain processed all the info, while paying attention to his surroundings and the red dress’ status. The jumper ghost was rapidly approaching.

‘Based on this speed, I do have a chance to reach Room 1244, but the Grade F Mission wouldn’t be so easy. Have I missed out on something?’ The sound of the jumper ghost crawling could now be heard inside the stairwell. She was moving on all fours. Her limbs were all twisted, she was climbing up the banister like a giant bug. ‘This game has always been an Iyashikei game for the ghosts inside it. The core of the mission should be on the ghosts…’ Han Fei’s expression paled as the possibility entered his mind, ‘The mission requires me to enter Room 1244 which is on the top floor and the woman jumped from the top floor as well. Based on the nature of the system, it’s highly possible that Room 1244 might be related to the jumper woman, she might even have jumped out from that room. Wait!’ This thought almost froze Han Fei’s brain.

‘If Room 1244 is locked, and there’s a high chance that it is, I will need a key. If she’s the owner of the room, it’s totally logical for her to have the key.’

Han Fei’s face turned ashen and his eyes twitched, now this was the Grade F Mission’s difficulty he was familiar with. ‘There has to be other solutions, it’s too early to give up now!’

Holding the red dress open with both hands, Han Fei charged towards the 12th. If this was a normal neighbourhood, if the tenants saw someone running up the stairs in such a manner at midnight, they probably wouldn’t dare to stop him as well.
