Chapter 991: Three Days

Dream created much fake evidence to paint Han Fei as the second Butterfly. Actually, many people there knew that Han Fei was innocent, but they didn't say anything. They needed a scapegoat.

"I was the one who brought out the info of the trapped players. It was I who handed the technical issues to the police. Those are the reasons you found out why I am the only player who can leave the game freely. However, have you considered why I risked so much to do something so stupid?" Han Fei's tone was even. He was already used to something like this. "I can fully ignore this. The lives of the trapped players have nothing to do with me. Until you brought me there I was still trying my best to bring the players out." Han Fei took out his phone and showed them No. 2's list. "I still chose to do that even though it'd expose my secrets. This is the info sent out by the trapped players."

Han Fei was reasonable, but not everyone would listen to reason.

"Why you're the only one who can leave the game?" The CEO of the internet safety company didn't care what Han Fei said. "Did you find the black box left behind by the former director of Immortal Pharma? That is how you manage to escape the examination of the supercomputer, right? If you hand over the box, we might help you."

Seeing the greed in their eyes, Han Fei smiled. He would always smile before he killed. Some used their lives to protect others. Some used their lives to take advantage of others.

"That's right. The thing you're looking for is in my head. The meaning behind Perfect Life, the key to opening the brain realm, I have everything. But even if you have it, do you have the time to study them?"

Han Fei's eyes stopped on the face of the CEO. His eyes were cool. The CEO sweated.

"4000000 players are trapped inside the game, and they might die at any moment. The three organizations attack the supercomputer and are trying to take over the intelligent city, and you're still trying to fight for your own benefit?" Han Fei pulled back his gaze. He stopped focusing on the big shots in the room but focused on the cameras above the table. "You enjoy the benefits and treat peace as a confirmed thing. However, once the peace is shattered, can you still sit here so happily?"

Han Fei didn't say these things to the people in the room. Ever he entered the conference room, he noticed something. The things they asked Han Fei were not things that could be exposed to the public. However, there were many cameras in the room. They were operating like normal. They were broadcasting the scene inside the meeting room to another location. He looked at the people present. Most of them had shown up in public before. After hanging out with Huang Yin for so long, Han Fei understood the higher-ups of Xin Lu a lot more. The real decision-makers never showed up before the public. They were always hidden.

Han Fei was certain that there were other people observing this special meeting, and those people were the ones Han Fei needed to convince. Some of them might even have survived Fu Sheng's era. Even if they hadn't seen the ghosts before, they would know something about them. Fu Sheng was forgotten over time, but records about the tragedy were still there. They were merely hidden away.

"Do you think the murderers alone can have enough power to turn the city over? The ghosts that are once defeated by the bravest man have returned. The number of Butterfly syndrome patients will only increase. The people will be lured by darkness. The things your predecessors are most worried about are going to happen!" Han Fei looked at the camera. His gaze appeared to pierce through it to see the people hiding behind them. "The things you want are on me, but what if you can get your hands on them? 4000000 players will become ghosts, and they will crawl out of the living humans' brains. All your nightmares will come true!"

The people who didn't know the truth would think that Han Fei had gone insane.

"I know you don't trust me. Honestly, I don't trust you either. The path I chose is different from the Fu Brothers. The only path we have now is to trust each other!"

Han Fei spoke nothing but the truth. However, he didn't get any response. The 'big shots' in the room didn't expect Han Fei to discover the real city admins behind the scene.

"I am the only player who can leave the game. I'll do all the dangerous things. I'll suffer the pain, death, and despair!" Han Fei gritted his teeth. "I need time now. Give me three days, and I can prove it to you!"

Han Fei didn't want to ask for more. He only needed three days.

"Everything is there for success. There's no need for you to bleed or face the threat of death. You only need to keep on hiding in the shadows like cowards, and you can retain everything you have!"

Han Fei shot daggers at everyone. Even if the 'big shots' didn't wish to help him, he had to fight for three more days.

There was still no response. Han Fei understood it. His face still carried that emotionless smile.

"Fine. I understand. However, I guess it's worth it to use my life to trade for your wealth." For a moment, Han Fei thought about giving up the tunnel. That was the thing Dream wanted Han Fei to do, to fall into darkness and the cryptic world.

"I agree with Han Fei and support him." A voice echoed in the room. Everyone turned. The representative from Immortal Pharma, Fu Lie, stood up. "In my father's will, he said that whoever found the black box would obtain Immortal Pharma's original stocks. From another perspective, the black box is the personal effect of Immortal Pharma. The person who found the black box is the heir personally selected by Fu Tian."

The conference room was shocked. No one would expect the person from Immortal Pharma would say something like that. Immortal Pharma was currently handled by Fu Jing and his brother. If Fu Lie was telling the truth, they were basically handing the company over to an outsider.

The conference room door opened, and Du Jing, Assistant Tao, and two elders walked in.

"Thankfully, there's still time." Du Jing was as kind as before. She held a black metallic box. "Since everyone is here, I'll be direct. Han Fei is the new owner of Immortal Pharma. His words shall represent Immortal Pharma."

If Fu Lie's words were shocking, Du Jing's words stunned them. Why would Immortal Pharma do something like this at this moment?

As the top two tech companies in the world, would they really hand over everything to an outsider due to a will?

Something else must be happening behind the scene.

"The black box has Fu Tian's will. You can take a look at it yourself." Du Jing opened the black box. It contained the video from Fu Tian a few days before he passed away. He knew he didn't have much time, so he left behind this will while he was still conscious.

Fu Tian, in the video, looked old. He was not as Han Fei remembered him. He used his whole life researching the secrets of immortality, but he didn't use the result on himself. For him, being alive was not anything happy.

Fu Tian did everything in reverse to his big brother. Han Fei saw in the grave village nightmare that he didn't follow his promise to his brother. He butchered the villagers. After the bloodred night, Fu Tian didn't stop the persona experiment either. The two brothers insisted that they did the right thing, but at the last moment, Fu Tian seemed to have changed his mind. He didn't have the black box, but he had the power to decide the heir of the black box because he knew that the black box was that person's choice.

After reading Fu Tian's will, Du Jing took out her share and helped Han Fei gain over 50 percent of the stocks.

"You mean this person is the heir of Immortal Pharma?" Kong Tiancheng and the others couldn't handle this. "In the past, we haven't heard of any connection between him and your company. He only grew up at your company orphanage."

"When a company is unstable, it's normal for the identity of the heir to remain a secret. After all, that's the only way to guarantee their safety." Du Jing was still gentle and wise. "The city is about to be destroyed, but all of you are still pondering how to take advantage of it. He's the only one actively trying to stop it. That alone is enough for him to become the new leader of Immortal Pharma."

Kong Tiancheng suddenly understood something. Immortal Pharma had been performing human experiments on children. Most of their clients would do anything for immortality. The evidence on them was already with the police. The original company higher-ups were fired. Fu Jing and his brother were secretly arrested. Under this circumstance, Immortal Pharma needed a new image and director.

Han Fei said that everyone would die after the tragedy arrived. Therefore, he was working hard to fight for a chance. If the tragedy didn't happen, Immortal Pharma would have been eaten by the other companies. Instead of being eaten by others, it was better to fight for survival. Kong Tiancheng then connected this to Deep Space Tech's situation.

4000000 players were trapped inside the game. They were in bigger trouble than Immortal Pharma. All the brain deaths would be pinned on them!

"For Immortal Pharma and Deep Space Tech, the tragedy has already arrived..." Kong Tiancheng thought about it. He silently contacted the admins at Deep Space Tech. He got the response a few minutes later.

"Quiet down." Kong Tiancheng suddenly stood up and put away Han Fei's 'sins.' "Why don't we listen to Han Fei first? We can't turn on each other at the moment like this."

The two tech giants stated their stance, and Han Fei's identity changed. Finally, people would listen to him.

"You've promised the public that you'll get all the players out within 48 hours, but you've failed." Han Fei sat down. "I won't take too much of your time. I'll bring all the players out in three days, and I need your full cooperation."

"Three days?"

The 'big shots' whispered to each other.

"You should know better than me how dangerous the situation is. Only I can resolve this issue now. If you stop me, we'll all die."

Han Fei only needed three days because Ghost predicted that Dream would arrive in three days. If they couldn't stop Dream, they'd die anyway.

"You said that the conditions for success are all there. Can you tell us your plan? Also, what is happening inside Perfect Life?"

"You can understand it as the betrayal of the supercomputer. It has started to influence the players from absorbing their dreams." Han Fei opened the list he had. "I need you to find everyone on this list. Prepare gaming hubs for them and send them into the game."

"But no one can leave the game now. Won't this harm them?" Kong Tiancheng was confused.

"Everything is voluntary. But you will tell them that they can see the people they have been missing the most in their dreams. They are trapped deep inside the nightmare, and we need their help to rescue them." Han Fei knew No. 2's plan. Dream's power came from the nightmare. The best way to undo the nightmare was to help the nightmare owners.

Once the nightmares disappeared, Dream would weaken. It was hard to do this in the past, but Fu Sheng's Perfect Life had given them a perfect chance.
