My Healing Games

Chapter 323 The Source of Hatred
Even after taking the medicine, Zhuang Ren was still in great pain, and his symptoms were only slightly relieved.

"Why is your name in Zhuang Wen's curse? Are you really not related to Zhuang Wen's mother?" Han Fei controlled the game character, but his voice gradually became somewhat frightening.

"There's absolutely no connection! When Zhuang Wen's mother was filming my movie, she already had mental health issues. She would always return to the film set alone late at night, and nobody knew what she was doing. That girl is definitely not my child!" Zhuang Ren shouted, clutching his heart tightly.

"She went back to the film set alone late at night? As far as I know, all the movies you make are horror films. How could an actress dare to go to the film set alone at night?"

"The last movie I made was called 'Entering the Dream.' I made enough money and wanted to make a truly terrifying movie to prove myself, but the filming was halted halfway through for various reasons!" Zhuang Ren struggled to his feet. "I still have some of the footage from that time. It was because of that movie that I started to rethink the questions the chairman of Yong Sheng Pharmaceuticals had asked me. I can show you all of that. I just ask you to help me open the doors to those rooms and see if my family is being imprisoned in room 1244 by Zhuang Wen!"

Zhuang Ren was emotional, and Han Fei didn't say anything more; they refocused their attention on the game.

Room 1244 was like a hellish cave, with curses and talismans drawn everywhere. Han Fei quickly opened the doors of all the rooms except the master bedroom, but did not see Zhuang Ren's family.

"The last room!" Zhuang Ren's heart leaped into his throat; he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

Pushing open the door to the master bedroom, Zhuang Ren's family members were not in the sunny room, only a little girl.

She sat by the window with her legs crossed, unaffected by the eerie room, her face radiating childlike innocence.

"A girl?" Zhuang Ren stared at the television screen, his excitement suddenly dampened, and he seemed to have aged several years.

He pursed his dry, cracked lips, stood there for a moment, sighed softly, and turned to go into the bedroom, seemingly to find the old video recordings for Han Fei to prove his innocence.

After Zhuang Ren left, Han Fei controlled the game character to approach the little girl, and a dialogue was automatically triggered.

The little girl didn't seem to have a name, nor did she know who her parents were. She also said that this wasn't her home, and that her home was under the balcony floor tiles.

When Han Fei got the key to room 1244, his game character was already tainted by the Death Curse. He didn't dare to waste any time and went straight to the balcony.

The balcony door was covered with countless talismans, and the inside of the balcony was filled with talismans for warding off evil.

Control your character to touch each tile. When you touch the tile in the very center of the balcony, the game will tell you that you have discovered something.

Touch it to open, and beneath the floor tiles, perfectly illuminated by the rising sun, lies the corpse of an infant.

The moment the body was discovered, all the talismans in room 1244 were stained red, and the scene turned completely blood-red, as if all the hatred had been detonated.

The death curse on Han Fei's game character was also forcibly triggered, turning him into a pool of blood.

Why is there a nameless, parentless little girl in room 1244? Why is the source of all the hatred in the room an infant's corpse?

A terrible thought popped into Han Fei's mind. He put down the game controller and dialed Li Xue's number again.

"What happened?"

"I hope you can help me find out some things. Zhuang Wen, who jumped to her death fourteen years ago, do you still have her autopsy report? Did she give birth to a child before she died?"

"it is good."

"There's another matter. Do you have the authority to compare Zhuang Wen's blood relationship with another person? I suspect that Zhuang Wen may be the daughter of Zhuang Ren, a former horror film director. I hope you can help me check the citizen information database."

"I need to apply. I'll get back to you in ten minutes." Li Xue hung up the phone.

At this moment, Zhuang Ren opened the bedroom door. He had already adjusted the equipment and hoped that Han Fei could come over and watch the previous footage.

"Because the props on set kept malfunctioning, we suspected someone was sabotaging them, so we installed surveillance cameras on set, and unexpectedly captured these images." Zhuang Ren pointed to an old computer, on which the images playing were quite chilling.

A very beautiful actress walks alone in a horror movie scene. She seems to be talking to someone and occasionally makes some intimate and ambiguous gestures.

Then it was clearly visible that she was forcibly dragged away from under the surveillance camera and into the depths of the filming set.

Where was this scene filmed?

"It was in that building in Pear Blossom Residential Area that was bought by Yong Sheng Pharmaceuticals. At that time, the residential buildings hadn't been bought by them yet, and the houses hadn't been sealed off." Zhuang Ren pointed to the computer: "The actress went crazy later. She said a lot of strange things to me back then, but I had no idea what she was talking about!"

"Isn't that the building where the chairman of Yong Sheng Pharmaceuticals lived when he was a child?"

“Yes, but he had already moved away a long time ago when we were filming. Strangely enough, a few years after the actress went crazy, Yong Sheng Pharmaceuticals bought that residential building at a high price and then completely sealed it off, not allowing anyone to enter.” Zhuang Ren wanted to say something more, but at this moment Li Xue called.

Han Fei took his phone and walked out of the room before answering it.

"Zhuang Wen and Zhuang Ren are not related by blood, but we also found something very strange. Comparing all the information in the database, we couldn't find Zhuang Wen's biological father." The information provided by Li Xue indirectly verified Zhuang Ren's words, and perhaps Yuan Shuang really did encounter something, and the other party has been living in the building where the chairman of Yong Sheng Pharmaceuticals once lived.

"Have you found Zhuang Wen's autopsy report?"

"She was not pregnant when she died, but she seemed to have given birth to a child before. After Zhuang Wen's death, her family was also investigated, but not long after, her family members also died in the same way, and the case was not investigated further. The house they lived in became a notorious haunted house and remains empty to this day."

"Can we go take a look together? I've discovered something that's giving me the creeps, so I want to see for myself." When Han Fei first encountered the ghost who jumped off a building, the system prompted him that it was a monster that had failed to transform its hatred. In other words, the ghost who jumped off a building was the first "person" Han Fei encountered who was associated with hatred.

What kind of experiences would a person go through to become such a terrifying being?

After obtaining Li Xue's consent, Han Fei continued to complete the Dead Building game.

Room 1244 seems to be a dead end; no matter how you fight, you can't get past it, and you'll die as soon as you get close.

Three hours later, Li Xue and her colleagues arrived, having completed all preparations and obtained the key to the haunted house. They took Han Fei with them to a relatively upscale residential area in Xinhu.

At 3 p.m., led by the property management staff, the group arrived at the top floor of the upscale residential complex.

The moment they opened the door, they were startled by the dense, dusty talismans covering the back of the door.

Upon entering the house, everyone, including Han Fei, froze in place.

Most of them are like those in the Dead Tower game, with rooms filled with various spells and piles of strange and terrifying exorcism items.

"This house is haunted; nobody dares to come here. I heard the whole family jumped off the building; it's terrifying," the property management staff explained from outside, not daring to enter the house.

After observing for a moment, Han Fei pushed open the door to the storage room, where a small bed was placed, with chains lying on it.

Then he tore off the talisman on the balcony door and forcibly opened it.

Sunlight shone on the ground, and Han Fei's gaze was fixed on the floor tile in the very center of the balcony.

"Put on gloves and dig it open to take a look."

As the floor tiles were smashed, a box wrapped in various talisman papers appeared, covered with strange patterns.

Peeling off the outer talisman and rope, the box shattered, revealing the skeleton of an infant inside.
