Chapter 801: Darkest Night
Han Fei arrived on the 25th floor at midnight. Before 3 am, he had cleaned the most dangerous floor in the building. When the survivors on the 15th floor heard this, they thought Han Fei had been possessed, and this was a trap. Han Fei had to spend some time persuading them before he could move the survivors at Red Alley and victims of the Ghost Card Case to the 25th floor. Han Fei had left them with enough food and a clean water source. He even arranged a room for everyone. The pairs of dull eyes started to light up again.
The skyscraper was a place that God used to cultivate evil. All the evil and crazy people were gathered here. At this place, the victims were the toys of the criminals. They were forced to repeat their worst memories. They were no longer humans but toys. Han Fei was arousing their dignity and igniting their anger. The skyscraper had the most victims. They were viewed as trash in the past, but Han Fei was giving them a chance to change their fate. The victims were united by Han Fei. After all, no one wanted to sink back into their past.
“Everyone has been arranged.” Sister Hong found Han Fei. She looked at the young man with respect. “Thank you.” Han Fei sat on an old couch. He held a mirror in his hand. He looked at his reflection and the space behind him. Sister Hong didn’t leave and stood quietly at the corner as if waiting for Han Fei’s next order. She hadn’t met Han Fei for long but Han Fei kept making miracles. She viewed Han Fei differently from before. She saw the indescribable charm in the young man.
Someone knocked on the door. Ji Zheng and Dirty’s father walked in.
“Your monstrous friend refuses to listen to us. He insists on spreading the Taboo to the other floors. Maybe you should go to persuade him.” Ji Zheng was helpless. He thought Han Fei was crazy enough, but the soul controlling the Taboo was even crazier.
“He’s not doing anything wrong. We should spread as fast as we can before God wakes up.” Han Fei had the same thought as his Evil Soul. Ji Zheng was speechless. “Is there anything else?”
“There are people who still don’t know what happened here, but the name Bai Cha has spread among certain citizens.” Ji Zheng dropped a bone card before Han Fei. “Someone has offered the Casino a lot of money for your info. The locals here have started to refer to us as the Bai Clan.” “Well, my name is Bai Cha.” Han Fei said shamelessly.
“Many Disciples have died at Red Alley. If they found out you first appeared at Red Alley, then you’re going to take the blame for the death of so many Disciples!” Ji Zheng touched the camera he had. “I have a suggestion that can prevent you from being discovered so quickly.”
“Killing Sister Hong and Fatdog?” Han Fei said the thoughts on Ji Zheng’s mind casually. Sister Hong, who stood at the corner of the room, had her expression change.
“It’s not important. As long as God is still asleep, the other enemies are not a problem. If God awakens, he won’t need the others to kill us anyway.” Han Fei shrugged. He had been pondering something else. When would God wake up? Han Fei had released No. 2’s taboo and taken away No. 2’s brain, but God hadn’t really done anything. This proved that God was doing something more important than No. 2’s brain fragment. Han Fei was reminded of the 3 criminal organizations in real life. They had survived for so long because someone was helping them behind the scene. The passage between the surface world and the cryptic world had been opened. This meant that the cryptic world had gotten closer to real life. The garden owner’s real target might be the real Xin Lu. He wanted to repeat the tragedy from years ago. Butterfly was Dream’s chess piece. However, Han Fei had knocked Butterfly off course. No one could tell where fate would head now.
“I’ve interacted with Fu Tian in the altar world. His constitution is not as strong as Fu Sheng's. However, he is smarter than Fu Sheng. He must have some secrets left.” The people of the previous era were dying away. As the storm gathered, figures of the new ear had to gather.
“Bai Cha, we can use the radio again! I’ve contacted the dancer!” Mr. Mo ran into the room with the radio that was falling apart. “He has something important to tell you!” Han Fei didn’t have much hope. He didn’t think the dancer and the gardener could help much. However, to his surprise, when the radio approached him, the bloodred doll in his pocket reached out at the radio. At the same time, bloodlines floated out of the radio. They connected with the doll. “This is… Xu Qin?”
He pressed the play button on the radio, and the dancer’s voice drifted out, “Hang in there. Six Pure Hatreds have entered the black rain. They will try to clean up the skyscraper before God awakens.” The radio cracked further. However, the info it brought was very useful. “Six Pure Hatreds?” Han Fei was not working alone. He had Xu Qin, Zhuang Wen, and the painter helping him. From the looks of things, the dancer had interacted with his friends at Happiness Neighborhood. “They must be worried since I’ve been missing for two days. But life here is not so bad.” Han Fei was researching how to use the radio to reply when Big Sin suddenly shrieked at the radio. Misfortune entered the machine. It seemed to want to help Han Fei.
“You’re quite reliable.” Han Fei touched Big Sin’s head. Mr. Mo sensed that something was wrong. The radio started to crack again. “The radio can’t sustain Big Sin’s misfortune? What is the mechanism behind it anyway?” Mr. Mo hugged the radio and hurried away.
Han Fei was confused. Ji Zheng seemed to understand Big Sin. He grabbed his camera and took a picture of Han Fei. “Your fate has turned indescribable.”
“Has my fate changed?” Han Fei was confused.
“See for yourself.” Ji Zheng handed the picture to Han Fei. It showed Han Fei’s fate thread turning black. “Your pet was responding to the curse from the radio. I believe it’s trying to say that you’re going to start mating crazily.” Han Fei stopped patting Big Sin. Instead, he wanted to punch it. But Han Fei only had 1 Life Point. He didn’t want to die in an accident.
“Your pet is quite clever.” Ji Zheng smiled another rare smile. He found rare happiness when he was around Han Fei.
Big Sin, lying on the ground, blinked innocently. Han Fei took a deep breath and triggered masterful acting. “Let’s stop wasting time. We should be prepared to head to another floor.”
Han Fei just wanted to move when he got a message from Evil Soul. He gave them a warning because something dangerous was coming from the elevator. Everyone moved to the elevator lobby. The number on the panel changed.
“At this hour, no one should be coming to the 25th floor.”
Just as Ji Zheng said that, the elevator doors opened. A headless body fell out. Han Fei and Fatdog approached the elevator. The booth was covered in blood. The person’s head appeared to explode when he was inside the booth. “A delayed death?” The victim probably wanted to come to the 25th floor to hide. But he was attacked and installed with a death timer before he arrived on the 25th floor. The elevator doors tried to close, but the dead body was in the way. Before they could move the body away, the other elevators started to move too. The numbers on the panels jumped crazily. More than one person was coming to the 25th floor.
“Isn’t God still asleep? Why are there so many people coming here? Did some of the big shots upstairs get the news?” The elevators all opened on the 25th floor. The headless bodies fell out. Their blood dyed the floor red.
“They are all Night Police and Rusted Stair’s cleaners.” Ji Zheng examined the names of the headless bodies. He was nervous. “Someone had issued a bounty related to this floor. That’s why the Night Police are coming here.”
“But who killed them?” Han Fei retreated behind Big Sin. “These Night Police carry sinner’s name so they should be very strong.”
“There are four levels of Night Police. Most of these are on the Danger level, only one is on the Forbidden level…” Ji Zheng started to retreat too, because the other elevators were still coming to this floor. “I’ve never encountered something like this.” When no one knew what to do, the most outside elevator stopped at the 25th floor. The door slowly opened and a child’s crying came out.
“There’s someone alive?”
They turned to look. Inside the booth, there is a feminine-looking boy about 10. He wore clothes prepared for the dead. His face was frozen in fear, and tears stained his cheeks. He kept crying.
“Will his brain explode?” Han Fei had Nine Lives carry the boy out. The boy didn’t resist.
“Can you hear me? What happened upstairs?” Ji Zheng wanted to take a picture of the boy when the boy suddenly went insane. He gripped his neck and slammed his head against the floor until blood covered his face.
Ji Zheng frowned. He took another step forward. The boy screamed, “The real Night Police is coming! The only Night in the building has arrived! He will cleanse this building! God’s most conflicting creation is here!” “What is he talking about?” Han Fei asked.
“The only night? A Night level Night Police has been born?” Ji Zheng shivered. “There’s a legend above floor 50. God is trying to create the strongest Sin Seeker in the city. He wants to turn the man with the strongest sense of justice into his new creation. The Sin Seeker has fought God for 30 years. Once he falls into darkness, he will become the scariest Night Police.”
