My Healing Games

Chapter 30 Huang Ying
Anonymous user: Has anyone yet discovered the dark side of human nature hidden beneath the surface of the sea?

Huang Ying (Test Account No. 0999): Including this time, Perfect Life has undergone six closed beta tests. Countless players have searched high and low but still haven't found the so-called Deep World. Now everyone thinks it's just a rumor. Even Deep Space Technology and Eternal Life Pharmaceuticals, the developers of the game, have issued announcements saying that there is no Deep World in Perfect Life at all.

Anonymous user: I also think this is a rumor.

Huang Ying (Test Account No. 0999): By the way, may I visit your home? What should I call you? It's quite a coincidence that we met in 999 chat rooms.

Anonymous user: You're welcome to come to my house anytime. I'll introduce you to all my friends. My name is...

Just as Han Fei was about to randomly make up a name and enter it, he suddenly noticed that chat room number 444 had turned gray again.

Turning my head to look at the wall, I saw that the electronic clock showed 4:01 a.m.

"Is chat room number 444 only available from 3:59 AM to 4:01 AM?"

"Is it only during those two minutes between night and dawn that I can enter the chat room?"

Thinking about this, Han Fei recalled his conversation with Huang Ying: "It seems like this person isn't playing the same game as me."

Sitting on the sofa, Han Fei stared at the haunted television: "If Huang Ying is telling the truth, then according to him, I might be in the deep world of this game right now, while the normal game they're playing is the surface world. The surface and the deep world can only communicate through chat rooms in the brief moments before dawn. But there's another possibility: Huang Ying is playing me. He might not even be human, but a ghost. He killed a player through various means, so he knows a lot of things."

In this underworld, nothing is impossible; only caution and prudence will allow you to survive.

"Huang Ying's ID shows the number 0999. I can check it after I leave the game, or I can secretly contact him in real life."

Han Fei still remembered the number after Huang Ying's ID. The best way to prove his guess was to check it himself.

"If only we could find a way out through him." Han Fei got up and walked to the window, looking out through the cracks in the wooden planks: "It seems like the sun never rises here; it's always night."

After confirming that the surroundings were safe, he chose to exit the game in a corner of the haunted house.

In fact, Han Fei initially planned to log out of the game at his elderly relative's house, so that when he logged in, he would be at his relative's house, which would be very safe.

However, after thinking about it carefully, he decided it was better not to let the residents of the building know that he was able to quit the game.

Clicking the exit button on the properties panel, the world in Han Fei's eyes was covered in blood red, and he exited the game.

Setting the helmet aside, Han Fei turned on his computer and immediately typed the information he had memorized into a document.

"I also want to buy some of the books that Meng Chang'an, the third brother, has read, so that I can more easily get into his inner world."

In the past few days, Han Fei has been ordering mostly books and study materials. Faced with a life-or-death crisis, he no longer finds studying tedious and boring.

After finishing, Han Fei began searching for information about Huang Ying online.

He tried various methods, but all the information of the beta testers of "Perfect Life" was kept confidential, and even if he knew the number, he could not find it.

"It seems we'll still have to rely on Li Xue. This time I need to come up with a better reason."

The cold light from the screen illuminated Han Fei's face. He sat next to a wall covered with photos of victims, silently staring at the information on his computer. Anyone who saw him now probably wouldn't think he was an actor.

The sun rose unnoticed, but Han Fei drew the curtains. He was used to the darkness and was still a little unaccustomed to the sudden light.

After eating a simple meal, Han Fei took out his phone and dialed Li Xue's number.

"Could you help me look up someone?"

Dead or alive?

“I’m not sure if he’s dead or alive. All I know is that his name is Huang Ying, and he’s a doctor.” Han Fei’s speech suddenly quickened. “He likes to play games at night, the latest immersive games.”

Is this person related to the human body pattern puzzle?

"A very subtle connection."

"Then please wait a moment."

The conversation between Han Fei and Li Xue was very brief. After only a few minutes, Li Xue called again.

"I found someone who fits your description perfectly: Huang Ying, the newly appointed vice president of Xinhu Men's Hospital. He graduated from a top medical university in China and inherited his father's hospital in his early thirties, becoming the new vice president. He lives in the heart of a smart city and is a big fan of video games. A few years ago, he made a surprising statement on a dating show. The host asked him if he had to give up either his girlfriend or his games, and he resolutely chose to give up his girlfriend. Perhaps that's why he's still single."

"He's quite an extraordinary person, isn't he?" Han Fei thought of Huang Ying's tone in the game, and he vaguely felt that Huang Ying, whom Li Xue was talking about, was the person he was looking for.

After thanking Li Xue, Han Fei hung up the phone and walked out of the room with his phone in his hand.

He took a special train between the old city and the smart new city into the core metropolitan area. Without even taking the time to appreciate the charm and convenience of the smart city, he rushed to Xinhu Men's Hospital.

After failing to find anything on the computer, Han Fei contacted the hospital staff on duty, only to receive a rather frustrating answer—Huang Ying, the vice president of the hospital, was currently attending an event at Deep Space Technology.

With the successful completion of the sixth closed beta test, the groundbreaking game "Perfect Life" is about to enter open beta, and its advertisements can be seen everywhere, with promotional activities almost every day.

Why would the vice president of a men's health clinic attend a deep space technology event?

Han Fei didn't understand at first either, but when he arrived at the Deep Space Technology event venue, he gradually realized why this place would have such a great attraction for a game enthusiast.

Deep Space Technology, with its deep pockets, booked the entire International Commercial Plaza, using six dynamic exhibition halls and twelve themed experience centers to promote the game. Entering them is like entering another world.

The future that people imagined many years ago has now arrived. With mature technology and crazy ideas, it seems that humans can create anything, whether it's heaven or hell.

"How am I supposed to find someone with so many people?" After registering his information, Han Fei went to Experience Hall No. 12, which had the fewest people.

His social anxiety had just been cured, and now seeing so many people all of a sudden makes him feel dizzy and a little overwhelmed.

"Perfect Life is a relaxing and healing game that can nourish the soul and soothe the mind. It features heartwarming scenes and everyday moments, and we will bring positive energy to all players with hope and happiness as the main themes!"

Upon hearing this familiar opening, Han Fei shivered and his face turned pale.

He was surrounded by enthusiastic gamers, but he stood alone in the passageway, looking completely out of place.

"Dude, are you feeling unwell?" A hand gently patted Han Fei's back and handed him a bottle of mineral water from the exhibition area.

"Thank you." Han Fei turned around and saw a handsome middle-aged man in a suit standing next to him. The man's clothes were probably worth half a year's salary for Han Fei. He was clearly an elite. "You're dressed so formally for a visit to the game exhibition area?"

“I actually hate dressing like this, but my family arranged a blind date for me today. I usually use being busy with work as an excuse to avoid it, but today they brought the woman directly to my workplace.”

"So, in order to escape, you simply ran away and participated in the game activity?"

"How can you call it escaping? I just love games; a man's happiness is that simple." The man was warm and cheerful, his personality completely different from Han Fei's: "Judging from your appearance, it seems like this is your first time attending a promotional event for 'Perfect Life.' Come on! I'll show you around and let you experience the charm of this game!"

"No need to bother, I still prefer to be alone."

“No trouble at all! It’s on my way.” The man took two virtual reality glasses from the counter using facial recognition: “I recommend this game to everyone I meet now. This game is the best I’ve ever played! If you like this game, we’re buddies! Here! Put on the glasses. When you’re done and returning them, just go to the counter and enter my name. By the way, my name is Huang Ying.”

"Huang Ying?" Han Fei's expression changed slightly, but quickly returned to normal.

There will be another update tonight, possibly a little later.
