The sharp scissors were covered in blood, enveloped with a bone-chilling hatred. Just by grabbing them, Han Fei’s skin felt a sting.
It was hard to imagine that these scissors had been embedded in a girl’s heart.
"Leave the rest to me now."
Han Fei had the girl hide. When he emerged from her hiding spot, the gentle expression on his face had completely vanished, replaced by a numb, icy intent to kill.
His blood-drenched left arm was marked with numerous cuts, each representing a death and the pain that came with it.
Amidst constant death and rebirth, Han Fei had forgotten many things.
He had lost the smiles and joy inside him, and even his only pleasant memories were stripped away. Now, his mind only retained a few names such as Wei Youfu, Huang Ying, and Xu Qin, but he couldn’t match these names with their faces—it was as if they were merely passersby in his life.
Forgotten, thus forgotten.
Hiding the scissors in his sleeve, Han Fei was now in a state of absolute rationality. He had forgotten many things about reality but not anything related to the Manager’s tasks; he remembered every step clearly.
He found Chu Xia among the playground equipment, obtained the scissors, and then went to the school’s back gate to talk with Old Li.
Han Fei had repeated this process many times, swiftly gaining Old Li’s trust and then splitting up.
He sent Old Li to steal keys from another security guard, while he hid in the office building ahead of time when students began rushing out of the teaching building.
"Ma Manjiang should be in the dormitory building now, and he needs to consume Jin Sheng,"
For Ma Manjiang, consuming Jin Sheng would make him invincible.
Han Fei needed to find him to complete his mission, but actively seeking him out was like walking into the lion’s den, at least in Ma Manjiang’s eyes.
As students and teachers began searching across the campus for Han Fei, he emerged from his hiding place and made his way to the fourth floor of the office building.
Han Fei wanted to find Jin Sheng’s class teacher, but an unexpected event occurred.
Jin Sheng’s class teacher had already been killed by Ma Manjiang, her body bloodied and sprawled on the floor.
"Every time I regenerate, I appear in the medical room on the second floor. Ma Manjiang’s initial spawning place is the fourth-floor staff office. He and a female teacher were in a room together..."
The beast clad in human skin, ruthless in his methods, knew the female teacher might help Han Fei, so he killed her in advance.
"I have regenerated dozens of times, and she must have been killed by Ma Manjiang just as many times."
With his hands covered in blood, Han Fei pulled off the necklace from the neck of Jin Sheng’s class teacher—a necklace filled with Ma Manjiang’s sweet nothings, now taken by Han Fei.
Among all the victims, the female teacher was the most special. She had a close relationship with Ma Manjiang and was also a well-recognized teacher in the school. Han Fei actually needed her help.
Han Fei had even planned it out, having the female teacher monitor the surveillance footage and then convincing her to expose Ma Manjiang’s crimes publicly.
The students, with no ears and blind eyes, Han Fei didn’t know if this would work, but at least it might keep the parents and other teachers from interfering.
The parents with their giant eyeballs only cared about their own children. Hearing about Ma Manjiang’s misdeeds would make them cautious, as they weren’t as easily deceived as the children.
Unfortunately, all this was hypothetical, something both Han Fei and Ma Manjiang had thought of.
Among the victims, the person Ma Manjiang feared the most was Jin Sheng’s class teacher.
Being a teacher herself, her words carried weight, so Ma Manjiang would undoubtedly kill her without hesitation to cover up his crimes.
"The people he could rely on were murdered, Jin Sheng must have also experienced this kind of despair."
The students searched the entire campus for Han Fei. The number of children in the teaching building had significantly decreased. Han Fei, relying on his passive ability of Hide-and-Seek, narrowly escaped to the infirmary without incident.
He looked at the thick grey fog, his gaze icy and gloomy.
"Ma Manjiang would kill the female teacher right at the start, he’s utterly inhumane, cunning and vicious. If he can’t find me, then other victims will also be his targets, he wants to kill everyone who might pose a threat."
Touching the scissors in his pocket and feeling that bone-chilling hatred, Han Fei knew he could not delay any longer.
He had already forgotten many things and if he continued to die, he might completely lose himself here and become one of the madmen of Yimin Private Academy.
Quietly leaving the infirmary, Han Fei remembered the movement paths of some parents and students. He ran into the greenbelt and found the injured Wild Dog, Zhang Guanxing, in the bushes.
After quickly bandaging Zhang Guanxing’s wounds, he brought Zhang Guanxing near the school’s main entrance.
Old Li was very popular in the school, and he easily got the keys from another security guard and also deceived that guard to another location.
Throughout the process, that security guard never suspected Old Li.
Han Fei had already opened the school’s main gate in advance and then put Ma Manjiang’s necklace around Zhang Guanxing’s neck.
Previous deaths had revealed to Han Fei that Ma Manjiang could smell the scent on the necklace from several meters away.
He wanted to use this to divert Ma Manjiang’s attention.
After getting ready, Han Fei went with Old Li and Zhang Guanxing to the dormitory building.
What’s bound to happen will happen eventually.
Jin Sheng was inside Ma Manjiang’s stomach; to break the deadlock, one must first break open Ma Manjiang’s stomach.
Now, the only advantage for Han Fei was that Ma Manjiang did not know that Han Fei had a pair of scissors that could take his life.
If he was slightly careless, Han Fei would have a better chance.
Climbing up to the second floor of the dormitory via the anti-theft net, they entered Room 206.
The air was tinged with a faint smell of blood. As Han Fei pushed open the door of the dormitory, he immediately heard a scream. He looked outside.
Ma Manjiang’s son was beating up the dorm supervisor at the second-floor corridor, blood was everywhere. He was dragging the supervisor downstairs.
"Ma Manjiang’s son and the dorm supervisor are on the first floor, so Ma Manjiang is likely still on the second floor, although I’m not sure which room he’s in."
The first time, Ma Manjiang was hiding in Room 204, but with his cunning nature, he probably wouldn’t stay in the same room all the time.
Han Fei slowly opened the door and let Zhang Guanxing, who wore the necklace, out of the room, signaling him to run to the other side of the corridor.
The naive Zhang Guanxing started running towards the other side of the corridor, but he had only run a little over a meter when the door of Room 205 suddenly burst open!
Two thick arms reached directly for Zhang Guanxing. Then, Ma Manjiang’s terrifying face appeared in the corridor.
This time, he was hiding in Room 205, right next to Han Fei!
They both saw each other. Ma Manjiang’s face, with three blood-soaked mouths and remnants of the female teacher’s clothing in his teeth, let out a piercing roar, then he charged at Han Fei like a madman!
