Chapter 921: Familiar

The scenario was very familiar to Han Fei. He had seen similar buildings in his mind before. The things that appeared in his dream were before him. It was a very strange feeling. Han Fei's soul was drawn to this place like this place was his home.

Windows were drawn on the old walls. All the windows were open, and it was bright outside the windows. There were rain, sunshine, and snow. Many children wandered around the windows. For them, there was hope outside the window.

Han Fei walked down the long corridor and opened the classroom door. Well-read books sat in the corners. Cute pictures were pasted on the wall too.

"30 seats. One is missing..." Han Fei remembered the shock he saw when he saw Mad Laughter for the first time outside the Red Orphanage. He slowly walked to where Mad Laughter was standing back then. The place where his table should be was an air-conditioner.

"The orphanage in my mind is different from this place." Han Fei grabbed the arm of the worker and said, "You said that Lab No. 1 is modeled after an orphanage in real life. Tell me where I can find the info on this orphanage!"

Other than Mad Laughter and No. 2, all 31 children died on that blood-red night. However, Immortal Pharma didn't give up. They found more children. Of the second batch, many survived. Some of them included Seaglass Cat and Qiang Wei.

"I'm just a person who is responsible for cleaning up the trash. How would I know such secrets?" The worker glanced at the butcher's knife and quickly added, "Everything related to Lab No. 1 is listed in extremely confidential files. They are handled by company admins. Only a handful knows the real secrets." Han Fei didn't make things difficult for the worker. 'No. 2 and I are both children from the first batch. Immortal Pharma would have reached some results since they took such a big risk to build Lab No. 1. They want to recreate something." Han Fei looked down the distance. The thing that confused Han Fei was, why would the three criminal organizations and Gao Xing enter Immortal Skyscraper at this time? What were they trying to find in Lab No. 1? Was there a connection between Lab No. 1 and the tragedy? Han Fei continued his investigation.

Instead of saying Lab No. 1 was abandoned, it was more like the place was sealed up. Based on what the worker said, the company admins would take the elevator to come here personally. No one knew what the admins did here. The workers sometimes saw the admins come with toys and chips. However, when they left Lab No. 1, those things wouldn't be seen. Han Fei suspected that someone was still living in Lab No. 1.

Han Fei left the classroom. He saw broken drawings on the ground. There were many stick figures, and all the paintings were covered in red. "So familiar..." The scent of blood entered the air. Something in Han Fei's mind moved. Pictures from Red Orphanage flashed through his mind, and his brain throbbed. He moved subconsciously forward. The internal space of the orphanage was rather complicated. The split in the road led to the reading room, treatment room, entertainment room, and canteen. Han Fei stood where he was, and his body shivered like he was suddenly sick.

The worker beside him didn't dare to move. He stuck to the wall. No one could understand what Han Fei was feeling. He stood at the crossroads of fate. The path before him led to different endings. The smell of food came from the canteen, the smell of blood came from the treatment room, and blood stains colored the path leading to the entertainment room.

"Why is there blood?" The worker was shocked too.

"Which path did the product take?" Han Fei's voice was low and dark.

"I don't know! I only sent them to Lab No. 1. They didn't let me in!" The worker panicked. Han Fei was at the edge of madness. Han Fei closed his eyes. The images in his mind overlapped with the one before him. He moved to the treatment room first.

The other rooms in the orphanage were simple, but the treatment room was the exception. It was large and had all the equipment. It had things for sports therapy, language therapy, and so on. The kids at this orphanage were often injured. That was why the treatment room was so professionally fitted. Han Fei scanned all the devices and paused before a bloody device. Someone had just used it. The result was still on the screen, "Mental status normal."

Seeing the bloody handprints, Han Fei was somehow reminded of Mad Laughter. On the bloodred night, Mad Laughter was mentally stable when he witnessed the death of all the kids.

"Is someone trying to replicate the bloodred night?" At that moment, Han Fei heard the sound of a heavy object dropping inside the treatment cubicle. Han Fei opened the cubicle door. Both Han Fei and the worker were shocked. There was a young woman about Han Fei's age on the bed. She wore a simple dress and had light makeup on her face. She looked like she was asleep, but the covers around her stomach were red, and her body was cold.

"She's not a researcher. They sent her in from outside. I thought she was someone's family..." The worker didn't dare to say anything else because he noticed Han Fei's expression was dark.

"Seaglass Cat? Will she die here?" Han Fei recognized the woman. She was one of the kids from the second batch of children. "All the children who are part of the experiments are Gao Xing's target!"

Han Fei ran out of the treatment room and entered the other rooms.

Dead bodies were stuffed inside the entertainment room's piles of toys. There were murdered adults in the dorms. Carcasses were stuffed in the canteen cupboards. As more dead bodies were found, the redder Han Fei's eyes became. Bloodred night was happening again, but this time, the victims were all adults. The second batch of children had all grown up, but they still failed to escape their fates. This was the purpose of their existence.

Han Fei recognized some of the victims. However, all of them had broken mirror pieces embedded into their wounds.

"The three criminal organizations worked together with the admins of Immortal Pharma to gather all the children here to revive the worst memories in their minds." The deeper he went, the darker the blood. The worker closed his mouth and nose. His eyes were shaking with shock.

Han Fei was in a special state. The memory in his mind kept overlapping with the scenarios before him. Some of Mad Laughter's memories started to seep into his brain. Their souls overlapped. The two started to understand each other. At the end of the orphanage, inside a room filled with paper houses, Han Fei found the last body. Different from the other bodies, this body had its face ruined. Its heart and brain had been taken away. Beside its head were some black fragments. Han Fei tried to piece the fragments together. They seemed to form a black box.

"After the bloodred night, Mad Laughter gained the possibility to inherit the black box; Gao Xing and Immortal Pharma are trying to create a second person who can inherit the box?"

Han Fei picked up the body. The frame looked similar to him. "Could this body be me?"

Han Fei wasn't targeted by the three organizations. He even entered the Death Chat Group as Sunny Boy. The person the three organizations kidnapped was Shen Luo.

There was a detail that differed between Gao Xing's expected day and real life. The 'luckiest' player gained part of Dream's consciousness and was targeted by the three criminal organizations. Instead, Han Fei was ignored.

"The last person Gao Xing wants to find is me. However, the 3 organizations wanted to kidnap Shen Luo even if they needed to fight the police. Would he replace me? I hope he's fine..."
