Chapter 502: Chapter 502 The Person Feared by Both Players and NPCs (Third Update, Requesting Monthly Votes)

After Han Fei passed by, Yantang and Tie Nan reacted, looking at the messy bedroom without knowing quite what to say.

"Was there a ghost that just came out of the mirror?"

"I think I’m starting to understand Brother Youfu’s thinking, It’s hard to kill a ghost inside a mirror, so he used himself as bait to lure the ghost out and kill it."

"How can that be called killing? That’s called redemption."

"Right, right, redemption."

With the neighbors absorbing the dark energy from the videotape, Han Fei, seeing nothing else useful in the room, prepared to leave.

"Sister, maybe you should go in front again." As soon as Han Fei left the bedroom, he noticed something wasn’t quite right with Aunt Li, He wanted to see if the person trapped inside the Mirror Clinic was really Aunt Li’s husband.

Aunt Li’s gaze had begun to drift, but when she turned her head and saw Han Fei smashing a female ghost into the ground, she was so frightened that she seemed to come back to her senses somewhat.

"His voice would come up next to my ear, it seemed like..." Aunt Li turned her head and glanced at Han Fei, "it seemed like he wanted me to stay away from you?"

Han Fei’s eyebrows raised slightly, feeling somewhat innocent. Whether it was the Liuli Cat in reality or the ghost calling for Aunt Li, it seemed like they both misunderstood Han Fei, seeing him as a very dangerous person.

"We’re both players; we certainly wouldn’t hurt you. You need to judge carefully now and not be deceived by the lonely ghosts and lost spirits in the building."

"You kids are all good, Without you, I would have never made it this far. I understand this in my heart," Aunt Li was reasonable, her gaze towards the three young people filled with gratitude.

As she stepped out of the room and walked a few paces, she stopped again, looking at the decrepit corridor, "Was there a mirror in that place originally?"

Looking in the direction Aunt Li pointed, the crowded mirrors from the clinic slowly appeared in the hallway, as if they had grown legs and moved themselves when unobserved.

"I really want to smash them all." Han Fei could feel the bursts of dark energy emanating from the Spiritual Altar. The neighbors only reacted this way to extremely dangerous things. Last time at the hotel when everyone got caught in an infinite loop, no neighbor sent Han Fei such a warning message.

"It’s better to be low-key when on others’ turf." When Han Fei let go of the notion of smashing all the mirrors, the dark energy from the Spiritual Altar weakened a bit, "Do I look like someone who acts impulsively? Are you still worried about me?"

One person holding the Spiritual Altar and talking to it, with a hint of "doting" in his tone, was a somewhat frightening sight, yet Yantang and Tie Nan actually began to get used to it.

Carrying a Spiritual Altar to the clinic late at night seemed acceptable. Since the Spiritual Altar was being carried anyway, talking to it didn’t seem to be a problem either.

"The mirrors are moving. Look closely at the people in the mirrors; they seem closer to the surface. I think we should hurry, or something bad might happen." Before Yantang could finish his sentence, the dim lightbulb above them went out, and hurried footsteps echoed from the floors above, as if someone was being chased.

"Let’s go upstairs and take a look." Now Han Fei truly believed Yantang was talented. Without even changing classes, just by his natural talent, he was already of help to him.

Walking up the stairs that crumbled underfoot, Han Fei reached the second floor of the residential building. The doors on both sides of the corridor were all open, and there were no bloodstains or debris on the floor.

"Why are there footsteps?"

Entering a room near the staircase, the setup inside was similar to those downstairs, except the floor was littered with a pile of business cards.

Han Fei picked up one casually. The number on the business card had been crossed out with a red pen, and a red X was drawn over the name.

"Do all the marked business cards indicate that the owners are dead?" Yantang squatted down next to Han Fei, picking up a few cards to inspect, "Why are most of them from moving companies and locksmiths?"

He turned his head towards the door, "This door doesn’t seem worth fixing either. Was the owner planning to move from here?"

With too few clues, Yantang couldn’t make much of it.

"Let me give it a try." Among the pile of cards, Han Fei found one that was peculiarly pristine, without any marks on it.

Taking out Yinghuo’s cellphone from the Item Bar, Han Fei tried dialing the number on the card.

He hadn’t held much hope, but before long, the call connected. However, he felt that the voice on the other end didn’t come from the phone but appeared directly in his Brain Sea.

"Please don’t hang up, I beg you, please don’t hang up," a girl’s cry came through the phone, her voice almost pleading.

"Are you in trouble?" Han Fei drew out the Rebirth Saber, signaling Yantang and Tie Nan to inspect the rooms with a look.

"I was deceived and locked up in a dark room. I’m running out of air..."

"Take your time, don’t panic. Is there anything particular around you? If it’s pitch black, then feel around and see if you can touch anything," Han Fei patiently encouraged, trying to determine her location.

"There’s nothing around. I haven’t seen light for a long time; I’m all alone here." The girl continued to cry, her voice filled with extreme sadness.

"Do you still remember how you were brought there?" Han Fei gestured to Yantang to check the bedroom and to keep an eye on the corridor.

"I only knew I was getting calls in the middle of the night, it must have been that phone’s fault, it kept harassing me, constantly asking me questions, I was about to be driven insane!" the girl’s voice became shrill.

"Tell me everything you remember, the more detail you provide, the more likely I am to find you," Han Fei comforted the girl on the phone.

"My dad lost his job, and the house we were renting was too expensive, so we moved to a very remote apartment building. The landlord was nice, she gave us a discount on the rent and said that the room came fully furnished, we could just move in."

"We were both happy at the time, and after living there for a while, dad found a new job, and we had income again, only that dad started to frequently work night shifts."

"Whenever I was alone at home at night, I would turn on all the lights and then close the bedroom door, wrapping myself in the blanket."

"Nothing happened at first, but about a week later, the landline in the house would ring every night at midnight, very punctually."

"Whenever I answered, a child’s voice would come through the receiver saying I would die if I didn’t listen to him!"

"I thought it was just a kid in the building playing a prank, so I didn’t pay any attention to it, but then he started to increase his efforts, calling me several times every night."

"Out of anger, I disconnected the phone line, but then the real frightening event occurred, the ringing would still sound even after the line was unplugged."

"No matter where I hid the phone, the ringing would echo through the room, that ding-ling-ling ding-ling-ling sound seemed like it was constantly hurrying me to my death."

"I couldn’t take it anymore, so I threw the phone out the window."

"I thought that would definitely stop whoever it was from contacting me, but then the ringing started in the room again."

At this point in the girl’s story, Yantang had come over to Han Fei, making a phone gesture as if to say they had searched everywhere but found no phone and no girl in the room.

Han Fei nodded his head and continued to chat with the girl, "The phone has been thrown away, so why is there still a ringing inside the room?"

"I don’t know, I was extremely scared at that time and covered myself with the blanket, but this was useless, I felt like the ringing had already run into the blanket." The girl continued with a sobbing voice, "In the end I had no idea what to do, I mustered my courage to climb out of bed and began to search for it in the room."

Just as the girl finished saying this on the phone, both Han Fei and Yantang heard the sound of a ringing phone; that sudden ringing made the nerves of several players instantly tense.

"The ding-ling-ling started in the bedroom."

Han Fei looked towards the bedroom; the ringing they heard was also coming from the bedroom.

"The ringing slowly grew louder, and I moved around the wooden bed, listening intently to the sound of the bell in the darkness of night," the girl’s voice seemed to grow quieter, but she continued to cry very sadly.

Han Fei took out the Rebirth Saber, and with the other players, entered the bedroom.

Walking around the edge of the bed, they stopped in front of a large locked wardrobe.

"I moved back and forth, eventually standing uncertainly in front of the wardrobe, the ringing seemed to be coming from inside it. I was very doubtful there was a child hiding in the wardrobe, filled with trepidation, I slowly opened it..."

The girl’s voice on the phone dwindled, but the ringing became even louder; Han Fei couldn’t make out what the other party was saying at all.

Holding the Spiritual Altar, Han Fei smashed the lock on the wardrobe, tore off the seal, and flung the doors open.

In the locked wardrobe was an old dressing mirror directly facing the doors, the mirror surface was pitch black with only a little girl holding a phone, staring at Han Fei with eyes full of whites.

"Thank you for coming to save me." The girl’s mouth split open in a flash, revealing copious Blood Silk as she spoke into the receiver with an extremely cruel voice, "It’s your turn to come into this room now."

Darkness flooded out of the mirror like a breached river, and the girl extended her hands as if she could finally escape the mirror.

The darkness surged forward, and suddenly the shadow under Han Fei’s feet began to wriggle, and a huge Black Python leaped out ferociously.

It opened its mouth wide, not only swallowing the darkness pouring from the mirror, but also, insatiably, bit towards the mirror, stretching its body into it!

No one knew what the Monster truly was, it seemed that it could even devour the room inside the mirror!

The already cramped room was now occupied by a massive python, with the girl curled up in a corner holding the phone, her body trembling, but then the phone in her arms rang again.

Subconsciously answering the call, the girl heard a man’s chilling, terrifying voice in her ear.

"If you don’t listen to me, you will die!"

The nightmare from years ago resurfaced, the same words echoing in her ear once again, the girl threw the phone away instantly and turned her head towards the outside of the mirror.

Han Fei was holding his phone, dialing her number over and over again.
