My Healing Games

Chapter 860 Single-handedly supporting a department

The feeling of having brushed past the god of one's faith countless times is very peculiar. After seeing Han Fei's soul, Yin Shang changed his previous resolute attitude and agreed to help Han Fei.

As the most devout follower of the maniacal laughter, he also had a small wish: to kill the hatred of the Third Mental Hospital of Shanghai.

After the catastrophe broke out, hatred that had taken over the mental hospital killed his wife and newborn child.

Hatred and rage turned Yin Shang into a ghost, but perhaps because he had participated in some special experiments at Yong Sheng Pharmaceuticals, he still retained some of his memories even after becoming a ghost.

He refused to associate with the monsters from the Deeper World, so he chose a different path.

There are many other "people" who have had similar experiences to him, but as time went by, some of them completely lost their minds and turned into pure evil spirits, while others were hunted down by other ghosts and monsters.

Over time, they all went into hiding, no longer insisting on distinguishing between good and evil, no longer reminding themselves to maintain their humanity, silently disappearing into the darkness to lick their wounds.

If the calamity continues to deepen, they will eventually become like the monsters of the Deep World.

"These Yin merchants are scattered throughout the city and can act as our eyes." Everything is developing according to Number Two's plan: "Relying on the Calamity Investigation Bureau, we will build our own force, where humans and ghosts coexist. Any monster can join as long as it can help usurp the godhood."

“You don’t need to leave the Bureau of Investigation. Number Four and I will manage these shady businesses for you.” Number Five and Number Four stood side by side: “It’s a waste for all thirty students in the class to be gathered together. Once our personalities are strengthened again, we will split up to operate.”

"We'll see when the time comes." Han Fei's mission was to protect all the students; he couldn't abandon any child. "Yin Shang has already told me the locations of the other ghosts and monsters. Shall we go tonight?"

“The longer we wait, the more things can go wrong. Of course, we need to make contact with them as soon as possible.” Number Two lay on Number Five’s back: “The God’s birthday is coming up soon. That day is extremely important to him. We need to accumulate enough strength before that day arrives.”

After opening the doors of each cell, Han Fei devoured all the "goods" imprisoned by Yin Shang before emerging from the underground warehouse.

Back in the car, the group, led by Yin Shang, passed through Zone C and arrived at the edge of Zone A.

"The source of the disaster is the Eternal Life Building, one of the buildings owned by a branch of Eternal Life Pharmaceuticals, which is responsible for developing drugs to treat mental illnesses and testing various new medical devices." Yin Shang sat in the passenger seat, his black robe shrouding the car. He held the rotting human head in his hands, unwilling to throw it away.

He sacrificed most of the living people to the idols, but he kept this head to convey his message. In some ways, he could be considered thrifty and hardworking.

“I left early that day, and the people who were supposed to relieve me were all dead. When I returned after seeing my daughter, the inside of the building seemed to have become another world, completely swallowed by darkness, with only boundless coldness all around.”

Stuttering words came from the heads; Yin Shang himself had lost the ability to speak, and he needed to use other people's bodies to do so.

"The Eternal Life Building was formerly known as the Eternal Prosperity Building. It is marked as a forbidden building in the documents of the Calamity Investigation Bureau." Han Fei recalled the information he had read: "The Haunted Building has already produced a top-level hatred comparable to that of a butterfly. There might really be something unspeakable left behind in the Forbidden Building. If we go there now, we will be courting death."

Despite his soaring strength, Han Fei remained humble and always had a clear understanding of himself.

“We need to find the shrine hidden in the world of memories. The key to usurping the god lies in destroying the original shrine and statues, and then we can rebuild the new god on the ruins. The Forbidden Tower will definitely have to go there in the future.” Death was boiling in Number Four’s eyes. He had no fear of danger and death, or rather, he was the embodiment of death himself.

“Even if you wanted to go, I couldn’t take you in. The core area of ​​Zone A is practically another world. The rules there are different from the outside. Whether you’re a human or a ghost, anything that goes in will cause terrible things to happen.” The withered head in the Yin Merchant’s hand said weakly, “The great calamity first broke out in Zone A, where the most terrifying ghosts and monsters gather. But it’s worth noting that all the ghosts and monsters deliberately avoided that core area, not even their hatred was willing to get close.”

"We won't be going to the Forbidden Tower for now," Number Two said, reassuring Han Fei and Yin Shang.

"If you are interested in the Great Catastrophe, you can find another Yin Merchant named Kong Tiancheng. He was a high-ranking executive at Deep Space Technology. In the weeks leading up to the Great Catastrophe, he stayed in the Eternal Life Building, seemingly conducting some special experiments. He knows a great deal of secrets."

Yin Shang's words piqued Han Fei's interest. He remembered Kong Tiancheng: "Let's go find him tonight."

“I’m afraid that won’t work. He disappeared a long time ago.” Yin Shang shook the human head in his hand: “There are rumors that he was imprisoned by hatred, and some Yin Shang saw him appear near Hope New City. As a ghost, he seems to be looking for a way to get along with people.”

Han Fei didn't have a deep impression of Kong Tiancheng, having only seen him once at a game exhibition: "The Immortal Pharmaceuticals were completely destroyed, but traces of Deep Space Technology can still be seen here. It seems that the establishment of the new city is related to them."

"So, according to you, Kong Tiancheng wanted to re-establish contact with Deep Space Technology, which is why he went to Hope City?" Number Five nodded: "It seems we also need to go to Hope City, whether it's to investigate the truth of the disaster or to select a large number of sacrifices."

"Sacrificial offerings? You must calm down!" Han Fei quickly spoke up, as others had always advised him in the past.

"Do you think that city is wonderful? It's named after what it lacks, so it was named Hope." Number Two looked at the faces reflected in the car window, and no one could guess what he was thinking.

As the vehicle sped through the city's alleyways, they found more than a dozen vengeful spirits who retained memories of their past lives and harbored little malice towards the living. These vengeful ghosts were targeting evil spirits from the deeper world.

With the full assistance of the Yin Merchant, Han Fei and the children triggered the altars guarded by those ghosts and monsters. They shook the rules of the shrine world, causing a slight deviation in the trajectory of fate.

After demonstrating the connection between the shrine and himself, the ghosts' friendliness towards Han Fei increased significantly, and their ethereal faith gained a real direction.

Han Fei didn't need these ghosts to do anything; he just wanted them to protect themselves, gather information, and act as his eyes.

On the surface, Group Thirteen only has him, but in reality, even if we are being modest, Group Thirteen's mobilization ability is already comparable to half of the investigation squadron.

As Han Fei left the last building and walked out of the corridor, he felt something. He looked up and saw that a few faint stars had suddenly appeared in the pitch-black night sky that had shrouded Shanghai for more than a decade.

"A single spark can start a prairie fire, and the gods will pay the price for their arrogance sooner or later." After saying this, Number Five seemed to think of something and glanced at Number Two with a smile: "Except for you and Number Zero."

This short sentence revealed a piece of information to Han Fei: among the thirty children, it seemed that two of them had become unspeakable.

"Things here are done, let's go to Hope New City." Number Two ignored Number Five and gestured for everyone to get in the car: "Those criminals should have received news of their subordinates' disappearance by now. We can't give them a chance to destroy the evidence."

Taking out the map he had taken from the Investigation Bureau, Han Fei drove to the new city.

……

Do you know who Xiao Hong is?

“I’ve been having the same dream lately. I forget where I met Xiao Hong, but we became friends and played together.”

“I never told Xiaohong where my home is, but it found my home on its own.”

"At first, it called my name downstairs, then it ran into the stairwell, stood at my door, and called me to come out and play."

“I got a little scared. If I didn’t open the door, it kept knocking.”

"That day I opened my eyes and suddenly heard my mother talking to someone. They were chatting happily. I rubbed my eyes and went out of the bedroom, and saw Xiaohong sitting on the sofa!"

“My family loves Xiaohong very much. It comes to see me more and more often. Gradually, I feel that my family spends more time talking to it than I do.”

"Little Red is slowly replacing me. This can't go on. I have to kill it."

"That day I hid the knife under my pillow and called Xiaohong into the bedroom to play."

"I remember it clearly. After I closed the door, Xiaohong showed a smile that was happier than ever before."

"So happy, so scary. I pushed it down in front of the dressing mirror and took out the knife hidden under the pillow."

"A viscous liquid splattered on my clothes and slid down the mirror. I looked up abruptly and suddenly realized that I was wearing a red dress, and my face was slowly turning like Xiao Hong's!"

In the basement of the Hope New City Dawn Clinic, a madwoman dressed in blood-stained clothes leaned on the doctor's shoulder: "Ghost doctor, I feel like I'm trapped in that dream and can't get out. Little Red keeps appearing in various places."

"Take your medicine on time and receive proper treatment, you'll get better." The handsome doctor kissed the madwoman's lips. "Get some sleep... Little Red."

The doctor looked at his work with satisfaction, but a knock suddenly sounded at the door. He adjusted his glasses, straightened his clothes, and opened the door to the basement clinic.

"You still have the mind to treat patients?" A middle-aged man dressed entirely in black appeared at the door.

"Judge? What do you want with me?"

“Eleven of our people have gone missing in Area A.” The middle-aged man, referred to as the judge, produced a list: “I’m not sure who did it, but someone saw the 016 truck, which was used for worshipping deities, being driven into the Bureau of Calamity Investigations.”
