Chapter 264: Chapter 264: Do you really think I ran away because I was scared?

The Meat Factory Building for Family at night seemed like a completely different structure from the one during the day. This old, dilapidated building would witness all sorts of strange occurrences at night, and the remaining residents usually did not venture out after dark.

"Is it my imagination, or does the atmosphere intensify as soon as Han Fei appears?"

There are numerous ways to convey horror in thriller films, but most require background music and specific filming techniques. Director Zhang was certain he hadn’t done anything, merely filming Han Fei, yet he felt a distinct difference from the images on the screen.

As an experienced director, Director Zhang’s understanding of visual and camera language far surpassed anyone present. He could clearly sense an intense unease emanating from around Han Fei, as if all the eerie occurrences in the building were because of him.

"It’s hard to imagine that he actually began his career in comedy."

Director Zhang stared intently at the camera, unwilling to miss any detail.

Standing in the middle of the filming location, Han Fei also felt something was off. The unidentified stench was intensifying, and the air seemed to thicken. Han Fei felt a familiar sensation, as if he had returned to the Deep World.

Little Tong, playing a corpse, felt uncomfortable; his face lay against the cold ground, and the steadily intensifying stink felt like a snake slithering directly into his nostrils, crawling back and forth in his lungs.

His meticulously groomed eyebrows slightly furrowed as he squinted and glanced at Han Fei.

At that moment, Han Fei was also observing him. Their eyes met, and Little Tong felt a chill rushing from his feet to his head.

He felt that Han Fei’s gaze was like staring at a piece of meat, devoid of any emotion, just cold, calculated thinking.

For some reason, he always felt like Han Fei had seen many corpses, and now he inadvertently revealed a hint of genuine feeling.

If there weren’t cameras filming, Little Tong guessed he would immediately get up and leave. Recalling the news reports about Han Fei, he was completely distressed and swore he would never stay alone in a room with Han Fei again.

The icy look felt like a sharp knife, and in Han Fei’s eyes, Little Tong seemed to have been divided into different parts. In fact, Han Fei had not only figured out how to dissect, but even considered where to hide everything.

Having endured the bloody hell of Beast Alley, Han Fei and Little Tong, like flowers grown in a greenhouse, had become completely different people.

"You represent all the good and hope in me, so I must kill you first so I can stop hesitating."

Cleaning up the scene, destroying all evidence and clues, Han Fei acted as professionally as if he had done it many times, and the pressure inside corpse Little Tong grew heavier.

After a second cleanup of the scene, footsteps echoed in the hallway; the climax of this scene was about to come.

In "Mystery Novelist," the roles experimented by Han Fei and Little Tong were all supporting roles. The scenes of Han Fei committing murder and clearing evidence only appeared at the end of the film to reveal the truth, with the entire movie being driven from the perspective of Doctor Bai Xian.

The audience would empathize with Doctor’s role, seeing him as the protagonist, going through one futile attempt after another at redemption and healing, only to find out that the Doctor’s medicine could save no one, including himself.

The moment the footsteps sounded, Han Fei walked out from inside the house.

The place he killed Personality was on the ninth floor, which also housed the Personality’s home.

As the Doctor, played by Bai Xian, rushed upstairs, Han Fei calmly reached the corner between the ninth and tenth floors, making no noise throughout the process, almost like a ghost.

Bai Xian suspected something would happen tonight, so he hurried to the ninth floor and opened the slightly ajar door of the Personality’s home.

The most dramatic scene had unfolded. At the moment when the doctor was calling the student’s name and entering the room, Han Fei was walking down from the tenth floor.

The two brushed past each other just as the doctor, realizing something, rushed out of the room, and Han Fei started to pick up his pace.

Due to injuries, Bai Xian was unable to perform the more intense action scenes. A stand-in actor had already taken his place and began chasing after Han Fei.

As the stand-in actor entered the scene, Han Fei, seasoned by his experiences in Deep World, actually felt a trace of pressure. The opponent was incredibly fast, seemingly very familiar with the height of the steps and the position of every piece of miscellaneous stuff in the hallway. In just a few breaths, Bai Xian’s stand-in actor was only half a floor away from Han Fei.

The scene was meant to display a tense and thrilling chase; however, Han Fei absolutely could not reveal himself yet. The fact that Spider had killed the other eight Personalties was to be disclosed only at the very last moment.

Han Fei could tell that the opponent’s speed had obviously exceeded expectations, which was not quite what Director Zhang had instructed before shooting began!

Han Fei was also quite adept at stairway chases. He accelerated once more, his Explosive Power allowing him to instantly pull far ahead of his pursuer. But unexpectedly, the stand-in actor also sped up again.

He was like a shark that had smelled blood, relentlessly chasing after Han Fei.

The voice-controlled lights were long broken. Taking a wrong step in the dimly lit hallway was extremely dangerous, yet neither the escapee nor the pursuer intended to slow down. Both seemed as though they had rehearsed this chase countless times, maintaining a constant distance while moving at high speed.

With his muscles tensely coiled, the thrill sleeping deep in Han Fei’s conscience was awakened. His brain seemed to blur the boundary between Deep World and reality, with new strength surging from deep within his flesh.

As he ran furiously through the hallway, Han Fei’s speed was increasing, but the stench surrounding him grew intensely stronger. He couldn’t identify that smell until he passed the old man’s room on the fifth floor.

The old man on the fifth floor had also emanated a similar stench, which was the scent of approaching death, the rotten smell of death!

"Something’s wrong!"

Without stopping his legs, Han Fei turned his head while his body reached the corner between the fourth and third floors.

As he looked back, he saw Bai Xian’s stand-in chasing up to the fourth floor, and just a few tenths of a second later, Han Fei spotted another figure following behind Bai Xian’s stand-in!

Its complexion was ghastly pale and it bore a semblance to a human!

"It’s that ghost!"

This was the third time it appeared in Han Fei’s sight, and this time it was even closer to him and approaching fast!

"Are you going to act today?"

While his mind raced, Han Fei felt something under his feet. Looking down, he saw a pile of trash thrown on the stairs between the third and second floors, mixed in with the corpses of stray cats and dogs.

Gripping the railing, Han Fei did not take the stairs but flipped directly to the second floor.

After steadying himself, he no longer fled in panic. Instead, he took out a metal baton from the pocket beneath his costume and quietly stood in the middle of the hallway.

"Do you really think I was running because I was scared?"
