My Healing Games

Chapter 267 Don't be afraid, we are all hostages
Artificial blood and cold sweat mingled on his face, sliding down the child's nose. He simply couldn't understand how things had come to this.

The script clearly states that the doctor was chasing Han Fei, so how did Han Fei suddenly come back with a baton?

In this enclosed room, the only person the child can rely on is the stunt double next to him. Humans tend to huddle together for warmth when they encounter danger, which may be the nature of social animals.

Seeing the child hugging the stunt double, Han Fei narrowed his eyes slightly and parted his lips: "Accomplices? Doesn't seem like it."

Han Fei swung the metal baton in his hand forcefully, the sound of wind breaking reached their ears, startling the little boy who pulled the stuntman backward.

He accidentally grabbed the stuntman's injured arm, causing the actor to wince in pain and turn even paler.

In the midst of the chaos, the child didn't notice any of this.

He was just an idol singer trying to break into the entertainment industry; he had never experienced anything like this before. Right now, he just felt that Han Fei was acting very strangely and that he needed to get away from him as soon as possible.

The child showed no awareness of being a hostage, clinging to the "kidnapper's" arm, trying to hide in the bedroom with him.

Seeing the child forcefully pulling the murderer back, Han Fei frowned again and suddenly accelerated!
The child and the stuntman ran back as fast as they could, but the bedroom door was so narrow that they bumped into each other.

A flash of malice crossed his face. The stuntman shoved the child violently toward Han Fei, then hid in the bedroom and locked the door.

The child lost his balance and fell to the ground. He looked at Han Fei who was rapidly approaching, sat on the ground and hurriedly crawled backward, letting out a sharp cry.

While the child was terrified, Han Fei walked to the bedroom door and shoved the child aside.

"Don't be afraid, that guy is a murderer. I'm his hostage just like you," Han Fei coldly explained to Xiao Tong, then kicked the bedroom door lock!
"You and I are both hostages?"

"Oh!"

The child was lying on the ground, and before he could react, he saw Han Fei kick the bedroom door!

The door and lock trembled together, and the wooden planks on the door frame fell off.

"What hostage would kick down the door where a murderer is hiding?"

"Oh!"

The lock fell off, and the door was kicked open.

While the child was still in surprise, Han Fei had already entered the house.

A cold wind brushed against my cheeks as the bedroom window was opened, revealing the stuntman standing on the desk by the window.

His state was strange; his face no longer showed fear and panic, but instead a numbness and pain, as if he had suddenly grown tired of the world and tired of his own life.

This was completely different from his previous performance; it felt like he was a completely different person.

"Is the butterfly controlling it?"

Blood vessels resembling butterfly patterns appeared in the stuntman's eyes. Fine lines intertwined deep within his pupils, slowly tightening around his eyeballs. The stuntman's mind seemed to have gone mad; he kept emitting strange laughter and then pointed at Han Fei.

"It'll be your turn eventually!"

Han Fei rushed toward the other person as soon as he entered the room, intending to grab him. However, the other person was also very decisive, jumping out of the window after saying those words.

The stuntman fell from the ninth floor. After jumping out of the window, he seemed to instantly come to his senses. His face was full of fear, and blood tears flowed from his bloodshot eyes.

Standing at the window, Han Fei wondered if it was just his imagination, but he saw that human-like thing was clinging to the stuntman's waist, hiding behind him, and falling with him.

After a while, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was heard, followed by screams from people outside.

Standing in the room, Han Fei looked at the empty bedroom.

The cold night wind blew up the curtains, and Han Fei also felt a chill.

A living person simply vanished into the darkness. Perhaps, in the eyes of that butterfly, life was merely a pawn and a toy.

"Butterflies manipulate human nature and have never respected life. They probably see themselves as gods who control everything, and ordinary people as mere tools to achieve their goals. This mentality also reflects their character; they are truly utter scoundrels."

The little boy in the living room also saw the stuntman jump off the building. He screamed and his legs went weak with fright.

"You..." He couldn't say a word. His body was trembling, and it felt like his lungs were filled with ice, even his breathing was cold.

“That person wasn’t an ordinary stuntman; he wanted to kill me.” Han Fei pulled the child up from the ground. “We are both victims.”

The victim drove the murderer to his death. The little boy leaned against the wall, not daring to speak, and even his breathing was cautious.

A series of hurried footsteps echoed in the hallway as staff rushed into the room.

As soon as they entered, they saw the pale-faced child and Han Fei standing at the bedroom door.

The three people entered the room, leaving only two people inside. The staff members dared not approach them.

A few minutes later, the police arrived.

Li Xue and two plainclothes officers walked directly through the crowd and came to Han Fei's side.

For them, ensuring Han Fei's safety was of utmost importance, because Han Fei was the key to whether they could catch the butterfly.

"Are you alright?" Li Xue checked Han Fei's body and breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that he was unharmed. Then she received a call from her colleague downstairs, and her expression turned serious: "That stuntman has lost vital signs. My colleague is retrieving his personal information."

A murder occurred on set, which is a very bad omen. The advice given by the elderly people in the building seems to be slowly coming true.

"Han Fei!" Director Zhang, who was quite old, came up to the ninth floor panting: "The camera captured the stuntman holding a knife, and I have a backup of that actor's information."

In retrospect, Han Fei did chase after his opponent all the way, but in essence, Han Fei was acting in self-defense.

Based on the information provided by Director Zhang and the police, Han Fei also learned about the stuntman's past.

The other person was originally a sprint champion in the provincial team, but was later expelled from the provincial team for fighting while drunk. He has a volatile temper and likes extreme sports, as if only extreme sports can give him a thrill.

Because of his strong abilities and his willingness to try many dangerous stunts, he gradually gained some fame in the industry.

Based on the information provided by Director Zhang alone, it doesn't seem like much, but when combined with the information provided by the police, it's a completely different story.

This man had three girlfriends, all of whom he had violently assaulted. He also had a history of long-term drug use and frequently posted crazy comments anonymously online.

Looking at what the other party posted online, Han Fei shook his head. Such an arrogant and crazy person couldn't even hold a plastic knife properly when it came to actually fighting, and was chased around by him. His mental fortitude was ridiculously poor.

"We'll investigate as soon as we get back to find out when he came into contact with the butterfly." The police prepared to take Han Fei away, and Director Zhang nodded in agreement.

The last scene of tonight has been filmed. The stunt doubles for Han Fei and Bai Xian exceeded expectations. Their intense chase had a special sense of realism, as if they were really racing against time.

"Director Zhang, it would be better if we tried to film during the day in the future," Han Fei said to Director Zhang before leaving. He had a premonition that today's encounter was just the beginning, and that he would have to face even more frenzied butterflies in the future.

"Butterflies are adept at manipulating human nature. Anyone with a flaw in their heart can become their target, so I have to be careful of everything around me, whether it's a stranger or someone I know."

As Han Fei got into the police car after leaving the meat processing plant's residential compound, he glanced back at the old building behind him.

In the building shrouded in night, the faint sound of wind chimes could be heard, and he could feel a gaze watching him from the darkness.
