Ying Yue's current appearance was that of a monster, a monster who had lost all reason and was in a state of hysteria.

Even in the face of such a terrifying and fierce Ying Yue, the two little goldfish showed no fear at all, as if no matter what Ying Yue turned into, they would always stay by her side.

The hand, stained with intense curses and resentment, ultimately did not shatter the fish tank. Black threads continuously emerged from Ying Yue's arm pressed against the tank, and the vast shadow slowly shrank.

The blood-red eyes in the room gradually disappeared into the darkness. When the last pair of eyes closed, the terrifying monster in Room 1084 vanished, replaced by a girl in a little dress.

Her eyes were tightly closed, and her two hands touched the fish tank. On the other side of the glass, the two little goldfish swam around her fingers.

They could not touch each other, but it seemed as if they could sense each other's presence.

"Ying Yue, your father and mother want to be your eyes; they want to always be with you." Han Fei slowly placed the fish tank on the ground, and he and Ying Yue squatted on either side of it. "I am a friend of your parents. Do you know what their last wish was?"

The girl, with her eyes tightly closed, lifted her head. She was sweet and lovely, exactly like the photo on the missing person poster.

"Your parents hope you grow up healthy, that you are happy, that you are content, and that you see all the beauty in this world for them."

Han Fei quietly sat down next to Ying Yue. "I will help you catch those who have hurt you. After they receive the punishment they deserve, we can go discover the beauty of this world together, okay?"

The two small hands touched the fish tank, and the goldfish happily swished their tails. The ripples in the water seemed to extend like the ripples of a dream.

Han Fei sighed with relief and gently patted Ying Yue's head. "Girl, from now on, I will be your family."

In the eerie and terrifying old house, the warm and gentle neighbor big brother comforted the blind girl who had lost her parents, a scene that brought an inexplicable sense of healing.

The room with the heaviest resentment in the entire house was the princess room. To prevent Ying Yue from losing her mind again, Han Fei carefully moved the fish tank into the princess room.

Upon entering the room, Han Fei was surprised to find that the handicraft he had made himself was still there. The paper doll of Ming Mei, pierced by a nail, was placed beside the pillow.

"It seems you like the little things I made." With a smile on his face, Han Fei was planning something else in his mind. "I will bring the child who bullied you in here. Those who do wrong must be punished; that is only fair."

Hearing Han Fei's voice, the little girl who had been standing by the fish tank suddenly turned her head. She faced Han Fei and nodded lightly.

"Player 0000, please note! Ying Yue's friendliness increased by 5!"

The system's notification sounded in his mind, and Han Fei knew he had temporarily escaped danger.

"Bringing a living person into the Perfect Life is very difficult, but how will we know if we don't try? Maybe the answer is hidden in one of the rooms on the tenth floor. After all, that old man tricked me into the game this way."

Ying Yue squatted on the ground, watching the goldfish in the tank. Not wanting to disturb her, Han Fei went to the living room alone.

The feeling of being watched had completely disappeared, and the temperature in the house had returned to normal.

"Can I leave now?" He walked to the security door in the living room, grabbed the doorknob, and gently pushed. The door opened directly.

A cold breath rushed into the room, and Han Fei received another system notification.

"Player 0000, please note! G-level hidden task 'Pupil House' completed! Ying Yue's friendliness increased by 20! Basic reward: 1 free skill point!"

"Note! The rewards for completing hidden tasks vary depending on the completion rate! Not only did you successfully escape, but you also alleviated Ying Yue's pain and helped her regain some of her sanity. Task completion rate exceeded 90%! Additional unique hidden task reward: Child King."

"Child King (unique passive skill, cannot be upgraded with skill points): You have an innate charisma that always wins the affection of children. You can easily connect with them, becoming their friend, family, or even a mentor on their life journey."

Seeing his new unique ability, Han Fei was a bit stunned. "Is this ability specifically for deceiving children?"

Upon careful thought, Han Fei realized that he did seem to be quite popular with children. When he first logged into the game, Chen Chen gave him a "surprise," then they played a game happily, and now he had partially healed Ying Yue's pain. His relationship with the children in the building was indeed quite good.

"Could I really have this charisma? Then I can specifically target young ghosts to be friends with."

After completing the task, Han Fei did not rush to leave. He first found the two hidden human puzzle pieces on the eighth floor.

"Now, I just need the two pieces on the ninth floor to complete the F-level task."

Easier said than done, finding the two pieces on the ninth floor was extremely difficult.

"Tonight is the last night. If I don't find all the pieces, the F-level task will fail."

Han Fei was a bit reluctant. He knew the locations of all the pieces, and the difficulty of this over-level task had already been reduced to the minimum.

"First, I'll check if Xu Qin has returned home and discuss it with her."

Back on the fifth floor, Xu Qin's door was still tightly closed, but the "death" characters on her door seemed to have increased.

"Buying groceries for three days? Did something happen to her?"

With three hours of game time left, Han Fei did not dare to go to dangerous places.

He first asked Meng Shi about the ninth floor. Meng Shi had never been there and only emphasized that all the neighbors who went to the ninth floor never returned.

Not getting any useful information, Han Fei went to find Ku.

He wanted to test the Child King passive ability with Ku, but unexpectedly, he gained some useful information.

Whether it was the Child King ability or Ku's change in attitude towards him, their relationship became increasingly harmonious, and Ku completely dropped his guard.

When Han Fei gently expressed his desire to go to the ninth floor, Ku's usually calm eyes suddenly filled with fear. He pointed to the empty room and then raised his arm, which was not yet fully healed, with a terrifying expression.

"Are you saying you went to the ninth floor before?" Han Fei asked for a long time before understanding Ku's meaning.

The last time Ku played hide-and-seek with Han Fei, he couldn't find Han Fei in the house, so he believed Han Fei's "ghost" talk and went to bother other neighbors.

Some of the ghosts who went to the ninth floor never returned. Ku wanted to check the ninth floor, but he sensed something was wrong as soon as he reached the middle of the eighth and ninth floors. The ninth floor was enveloped in overwhelming resentment, and once you entered, you couldn't leave.

Ku didn't reach the ninth floor; he only went to the middle of the eighth and ninth floors. Even so, he paid the price of losing both his arms to escape.
