My Iyashikei Game

Chapter 451

Some people saw their workplace as a runway, others saw it as a coliseum but Han Fei’s workplace was more like a slaughterhouse. Two days ago, they were still arguing but now one of them was literally opening his stomach to the other, this was a rare working experience. Han Fei felt pity for the guard and his hand tightened around Rest in Peace.

“You must be in great pain, right? Let me save you.” To heal his colleague, Han Fei decided to give him powerful medication. After a person’s soul perished, so would the pain. That would solve the problem. He swung with all his force. Sparks flew in the night. The flash cut through Lee Daxing’s neck. The splatter of blood didn’t happen. The man didn’t collapse to the ground either. Instead, after being cut, two pale arms grabbed Han Fei’s shoulders. “He’s gone! He’s really gone! But he was there! I have placed him there…”

The eyes were only several cm from Han Fei and the ghastly face exuded a light stench. Han Fei glanced at Lee Daxing’s neck. Han Fei realized the man’s neck only had a small cut on it and the wound was already healing! ‘Rest in Peace will be sharp against enemies with great sin. Does this mean Lee Daxing doesn’t commit much sin?’

Staring at the man’s face, Han Fei’s mind spun. Since Rest in Peace couldn’t kill the man, it meant that Lee Daxing was not a normal ghost. ‘Even if he is an illusion, as long as he contains sin, Rest in Peace should be able to kill him. Looks like Lee Daxing hasn’t committed the sin of murder, this can be considered good news.’

Being interrogated by a man whose stomach was cut open, Han Fei was still smiling, this was a skill he had cultivated to survive. He held Lee Daxing’s arms. They were chilly like a dead body in the morgue. “Try to remember, when was the last time you saw him?”

“Last time… It was here!” Lee Daxing grabbed at his open stomach. “He begged me. He was so afraid and asked me to hide him somewhere no one could find him! Someone was chasing after him! Yes, someone was targeting him!”

“But you’re the only one looking for him at this mall…”

“No, that’s not true!” Lee Daxing’s eyes were completely white now. He flung Han Fei’s arms away. He tore open his shirt and stomach like he was trying to drag Han Fei into it as well. “Come, help me go inside to look. See if he’s in there!”

Han Fei stopped the man and started to run to the 3rd floor. Even though Lee Daxing hadn’t killed anyone, he had lost his mind and couldn’t be communicated with. Han Fei rushed up the escalator. Lee Daxing stood at the bottom. His shirt and stomach dangled beside him. His skin was shriveling. ‘What is he doing?’

Lee Daxing pressed the switch beside the escalator. Han Fei assumed it would activate the escalator but he had overestimated the kindness in Lee Daxing. Sticky saliva appeared between the steps and tongue coating appeared on the surface. Han Fei’s feet lost purchase. The escalator became very slippery. Lee Daxing knelt down at the bottom. His open stomach was like a giant maw, waiting to consume Han Fei. ‘This ghost is quite creative.’

Han Fei ran as fast as he could. He arrived at the 2nd second before the escalator became a death trap. He didn’t stop and continued to run upwards. Lee Daxing was not the only abnormal ‘human’ at the mall, he was merely one of the victims.

‘What is the key to completing this mission? Face my fear? Feed myself to Lee Daxing or insist that they are all fake?’ Han Fei tried to convince himself that Lee Daxing was not real but when he turned around, Lee Daxing not only had not disappeared, he had appeared closer. ‘Since Rest in Peace can’t work, how about soul-depth touch?’ When he passed a female boutique, Han Fei slowed. He wanted to see if he could use soul-depth touch to injure Lee Daxing. This was the first active skill Han Fei acquired in the cryptic world. Han Fei had inputted all of his skill points into it, it was now a masterful level skill. If he wanted to level it up further, he needed to complete a mission related to it or use some kind of special item.

“Come, I’ve found a way to help you find your partner.” Han Fei stared at Lee Daxing. “I will help you shove your head into your stomach, that way you can look for him yourself.”

When Han Fei stopped, Lee Daxing’s eyes stared at him. When they were only 3 metres from each other, they both sped up, neither one hesitated.

With a pounce, Han Fei kicked at Lee Daxing’s chest but the latter didn’t tumble backwards. His arms grabbed at Han Fei’s right leg. Just as Lee Daxing intended to drag Han Fei into his stomach, Han Fei grabbed Lee Daxing by his neck. His hands pressed into the back of the man’s head and yanked him downwards.

Han Fei’s left hand had inherited the altar owner’s broken fingers. Han Fei thought the reward would only make his left hand stronger but now he realized he had greatly underestimated it. The five fingers pierced into Lee Daxing’s skin and stuck like nails.

Lee Daxing wanted to stuff Han Fei into his stomach but Han Fei had a gridlock on Lee Daxing’s head. Han Fei used his force to bend the man’s head towards his chest. “You care about your partner that much, so you should be the one to go look for him!”

Holding Lee Daxing’s head with his left hand, Han Fei grabbed Rest in Peace on his right. The scene was extremely scary and strange. Han Fei chopped at Lee Daxing’s neck. Lee Daxing’s head slowly lowered. When he saw his split open stomach and the fleshy insides, the man appeared to be triggered. Han Fei didn’t need to do anything more, and Lee Daxing started to literally dig into himself. “He is hiding here? This is the place where he said no one can find him? This place is so familiar but why can’t I go deeper?”

“Let me help you!” Han Fei pressed on the man’s spine. “We’re colleagues after all!”

Lee Daxing crawled into his stomach happily while Han Fei slowly retreated. He was curious why Lee Daxing would appear like this in the altar owner’s mind. Was it purely because he had bullied the deliveryman?

Han Fei slowly calmed down as he moved away from Lee Daxing. The 3rd floor was equally unsafe, this was where Huang Li was possessed and the floor where the mall boss’ ex-wife killed herself.

With that in mind, the gears in Han Fei’s mind started to turn again. ‘Technically we have the same enemy, perhaps I can try to get her approval.’
