Chapter 229: New Mission

The server, Yang Yu, revealed all the secrets in his heart. He didn’t hide anything. He twisted the knife that was inside the rat. His beady eyes were bloodshot. He gasped hungrily like a rabid dog.

“Don’t you feel better now that it is out of your heart?” Xuan Wen didn’t mind Yang Yu’s appearance. She walked over to him casually. The flawless angel walked among the stench and mud. She paused two steps from Yang Yu and handed him a piece of clean napkin, “Wipe away the blood on your hand.”

“A-aren’t you afraid of me?” Yang Yu couldn’t control himself as he gripped the bloody knife.

“Why should I be afraid of you? I think you’re right. In this crazy world, you’re the most normal person.” Xuan Wen smiled, “God must love you a lot for you to encounter me.” Yang Yu couldn’t believe what he was hearing. The perfect woman before him agreed with him. She didn’t have a trace of disgust in her eyes. She was different from the others.

“Now that you’re holding a knife, who do you wish to kill the most?” Xuan Wen asked with interest.

Yang Yu glanced at Xuan Wen, and his hands trembled.

“Is it your uncle who protects you and gives you a job? Is it your mother who is mad inside the hospital? Or is it the doctor who ruins and insults you?” Xuan Wen took another step forward, “Or is it me?”

Yang Yu’s deformed face became uglier as he gritted his teeth and ran back a few steps, “I don’t want to kill anyone.”

“I get it now. The person you want to kill is God.” Xuan Wen slowly approached him. “Because God’s love turns you into this. Many things were taken from you when you were born. You hate this shell that you cannot abandon.” Xuan Wen dropped a mask between them. Madness surfaced on her face. “The mask is only available to players selected by me. Tell me everything about the hospital, and I can change your fate.”R/ê/Ad lateSt ch/a/pters at novelhall.com Only

Yang Yu had extremely low self-confidence. His life was painful. He picked up the mask and cradled it in his hands. “Li San Hospital was once the largest hospital in the old city. Twenty years ago, most of the labs moved to the east city. Only a few remained. It was from then on that rumours about Li San Hospital started to circulate. The most famous is the one about the missing corpses from the morgue. Some families reported this to the police, but it was soon forgotten.”

Situ An’s last video and the sudden appearance of horror game players flustered him. The reputation of the centre was shaken, and this caused him a huge headache.

“Now is not the time for hesitation. I have to stop this before it has the chance to grow.” Jing Tuoshen caressed the device on his wrist. He had been waiting for a reply since yesterday night.

“I feel like we can attempt to communicate with the horror game players. If we have the same goal, there’s a chance for cooperation.” Chen Yuntian hadn’t slept for the night. His ageing body could stand it much longer.

“Idiot, use your brain. We have control over the resources of the whole city, and we have to cooperate with the researchers from the other cities to analyse the power of the ghosts. These players have nothing. How did they gain the power to fight the ghosts?” Jing Tuoshen didn’t even glance at Chen Yuntian, “These players are baits from the shadow world. Most of them have been possessed. They are directing everything.”

“They’ve captured some horror game players. They have not been possessed.”

“That means we need to improve our detection methods.” Jing Tuoshen interrupted Chen Yuntian. The communicator on his wrist vibrated.

Jing Tuoshen checked the white communicator that belonged to the researchers. He saw a message from an unknown sender. “The horror game players will target Li San Hospital tonight. But why that place?” Jing Tuoshen seemed to remember something. He used his power to access some files on Situ An.

“Twenty years ago, before Situ An took root in Han Hai, he worked at that hospital at night...” Jing Tuoshen’s eyes narrowed as he read through the files. “His life started to change from that moment.”

Jing Tuoshen deleted the files and sent orders through his white band. Soon, a few muddy black cars stopped at the entrance of the east city investigation centre.

Based on the plate numbers, the cars all came from Xin Lu. The batch of investigators and security members Han Hai headquarters sent to the taboo game in Xin Lu had returned.
