My Iyashikei Game

Chapter 773: Foreshadowing

Chapter 773: Foreshadowing

There was always foreshadowing, but it was often called coincidence later. Han Fei flipped through the script for Twinflower again. He played both brothers in the movie. He was the hero and also the villain. “In the movies, the heroes always win, but in real life, the living ones are the heroes.” Han Fei closed the script and placed it inside the drawer. “The conflict between brothers will not happen to me. I will change that ending.”

Han Fei entered the kitchen and cooked a meal for himself. Soon the room was filled with the smell of meat. He ate while he scrolled through his phone. In just one day, many things happened on the internet.

Yesterday night, many people were fired at the intelligent city. They were not protesting silently before the doors of Deep Space Tech. They were replaced by the newly developed 7th-generation robots. This issue shouldn’t be that big, but some crazy people from the countryside joined the protest. Just as the sun was about to go down, they attacked a manager from Deep Space Tech.

Similarly, the investigation into the bug officially started. Many parties forced Deep Space Tech to hand over the data related to the photon computer. The bug in Perfect Life hadn’t been fully resolved. The number of black box hunters in the game increased tremendously, but most players still viewed it as a casual game.

Han Fei scrolled through the various news when he suddenly stopped. He saw one article and had to read it several times to make sure. “A strange kidnapping in the intelligent city! Economic analyst worked with Level A fugitive to rescue his boss!”

With a bad feeling, Han Fei clicked on the article. Shen Luo’s face, covered in mosaic, appeared before him. “What is going on with this guy?” The article said that Shen Luo’s boss was detained in the intelligent city due to collecting illegal funding. Shen Luo hired a lawyer for his boss, but the lawyer was actually a Level A fugitive. Now, Shen Luo, Shen Luo’s boss, and the lawyer were missing. Shen Luo’s boss might face new charges like accessory to murder, obstruction of justice, and so on.

“The people at Sunday Night School are getting crazier.” Their activities had come up to the surface. “Based on what the gardener said, the black rain zone’s Unmentionable was born in Xin Lu’s intelligent city and was connected to the mirrors in the cryptic world and the murderer’s nightclub. I have reasons to believe that all three crime organizations are built by the Unmentionable.” Han Fei gained a lot in the cryptic world. “Butterfly is a Top Pure Hatred, so it’s normal for it to be viewed as a supercriminal by the police. That Unmentionable has mastered the way to leave the cryptic world, so its identity in real life might be a supercriminal too.”

Butterfly never killed people in person. It used hallucinations to force its victims to commit suicide. However, the Unmentionable in the black rain zone didn’t have that concern. Its hands were covered in blood. In fact, it seemed like it had gotten addicted to murder. “The gardener said an officer had accidentally trespassed into the garden while chasing the Butterfly. I need to find that officer.”

With Han Fei’s current ability, even with the help of all of his neighbors, he was no match for an Unmentionable. If he wanted to have a chance, he needed to deal with the Unmentionable in the real world too.

At 8 am, Han Fei called Li Xue, “Li Xue, I have a few questions for you.”

“Did someone go missing again? Who do you want me to investigate?” Li Xue was already used to this. In the past, she only helped Han Fei in secret, but ever since they found out Han Fei’s info was always reliable, even Li Xue’s superior approved of this interaction.

“I saw the news. It says that Shen Luo is missing? He is related to the criminal organization in the countryside. You better find him as soon as possible.”

“Don’t worry. We’re more anxious than you are. Captain Lee has been searching for the whole night already.” Li Xue sounded tired. “Is there anything else?’

“Most people commit crimes for a reason like money or conflict of interest, but the three criminal organizations in the countryside kill for the sake of killing. They are pure evil. If we want to fully eliminate them, we have to destroy the soil that cultivates them.”

“Your point is?”

“The real owner of the three organizations sees Xin Lu as his own garden. Every evil soul is a toxic flower. We need to kill this person.” Han Fei shared the info with Li Xue.

“We’re looking for their Big Boss too. By the way, why are you so familiar with them? Xin Lu might be in chaos recently. You need to stay at home.” Li Xue knew that Han Fei had gone out to do his own investigation again, “This case is different from before. It’s very dangerous!”

“Because it’s dangerous that many innocent people will be affected. I need to contribute wherever I can to end this.” Han Fei pulled the topic back. “Butterfly resides in this garden. There is someone among the police force who has accidentally seen the owner of the garden when they are searching for the Butterfly. I need your help to locate that officer.”

“There’s someone among the police, who has seen the culprit behind the three criminal organizations?” Li Xue was confused, “Impossible. The officers who investigated the Butterfly back then were all elites. If they had noticed something abnormal, they would report it.”

“I don’t know the details. I told you everything I knew. You need to find that officer as soon as possible.”

“Okay.”

After hanging up, Han Fei planned to go to Jin Jun’s place to deal with Bald Eagle. Han Fei called Jin Jun and prepared two sets of breakfast. It should be the paparazzi following the celebrity, but Han Fei sneaked his way to Jin Jun’s home. “That man didn’t create any problem for you, did he?” Han Fei’s greeting sounded normal, but the meaning was not.

“He’s still inside the gaming hub. I didn’t dare to let him out.” Jin Jun stood in the living room with a knife. He had received training in Happiness Neighborhood before.

“Well done.” Han Fei opened the gaming hub and dragged Bald Eagle out. Bald Eagle, with his broken limbs, was pitiful enough, but in the cryptic world, he visited three consecutive altars. Then, his memory was edited. He only remembered that he couldn’t go against Han Fei no matter what. The physical and mental torture pushed Bald Eagle to his limits. He lay on the ground and yelled codes that only Han Fei could understand.

“Stop screaming. I know you want to turn over a new leaf, but the innocent people you’ve killed won’t give you this chance.” Han Fei knelt before Bald Eagle. “If you want to lessen the pain, you have to follow your memory.”

“Crow is not that trusting. It’s impossible for me to bring you to him.”

“If it’s simple, do I need you?” Han Fei tossed the breakfast before Bald Eagle. “Leave after you have your breakfast. I didn’t break both of your legs.”

Jin Jun observed from the side. He was curious, “Han Fei, is Crow another fugitive? Why are you looking for him?”

“Crow is just the beginning. I will use my own method to treat these sick people.” Han Fei wasn’t just saying that. In the past, Bald Eagle had murdered for the sake of it. After Han Fei’s education, Bald Eagle still looked crazy, but at least he had respect for death now.

“Everything is to find the garden owner and then kill him.” Han Fei released Bald Eagle. He chatted with Jin Jun. He needed people he could trust to help him with the ‘crazed murderer reeducation’ plan. Jin Jun had been to the cryptic world. He knew the world was not that simple. He cooperated with Han Fei and created a ‘treatment room’ to help the ‘patients’.

After doing that, Han Fei received a call from Li Xue. He answered it and heard Li Xue’s teacher’s voice.

“I hear you’re looking for the officer who has once seen the garden’s owner?” The elder’s voice was weak. His health was getting worse.

“Has Li Xue told you everything?” Han Fei didn’t deny it. He wanted to get the police’s help.

“Yes.” The elder was silent for a long time. “That officer is me.”

“You?!” Han Fei signaled for Jin Jun to be quiet. He entered the inner room with the phone and closed the door. “Can you tell me more about the meeting? What does the garden owner look like?”

“My memory of that day felt like it had been wiped clean. No matter how I try to remember it, that day is missing.” The elder’s voice was even, but Han Fei could hear his suppressed anger. “I have used over a decade to remember it and have the help of many professional doctors. The only things I can remember are three sentences.

“One: You are my third creation. I want the flawless seed filled with justice to bloom into evil and ugly flower.

“Two: Have all the thirty children in the orphanage died? No one noticed any anomalies, right?

“Three: Butterfly, bring me into the dream.”
