"You must not be emotional!" Han Fei sensed that Meng Changxi's tone was not right, he immediately spoke up to persuade, "The police have already been to the Winter Flower Ice Factory, they know your plan, you can't hurt Meng Changan at all by running to the New Shanghai International Plaza now, it will only increase the police's suspicion of you."
"That schedule was originally written for the police to see, I renew a different plan every day, but the real plan is not written on paper." No one could guess what Meng Changxi was actually going to do: "Meng Changan and Meng Changshou are both murderers, but in the end, the real killer is the butterfly, and even if both Meng Changan and Meng Changshou are brought to justice, the butterfly that caused all this tragedy can still get away with it, it hides behind the curtain and never shows its face."
"Let's take it one step at a time and catch Meng Changan first."
"But I don't have that much time left." Meng Changxi turned around, revealing the large festering wound on his back, "I'm carrying the blame for killing my mother, I'm suffering from the blame and slander of the real killer, I'm living a painful life, so now I want to have a wonderful ending."
Han Fei could probably understand what Meng Changxi meant, and he tried to get in the way, but was stopped by Meng Changxi: "After you find that evidence, pay attention to your own safety."
"Don't worry about me." Han Fei nodded.
"You're too deeply involved with this case, the butterfly will definitely find you! So no amount of caution is too much, these ten years I've been hiding in the East XZ, there have been several near accidental deaths, all of those accidents could be the butterfly that's watching me now that I think about it."
"Accidental death?"
" The Butterfly likes to play with human nature, and will create some kind of coincidence, the two seemingly completely unrelated things, maybe to kill you." Meng Changxi told Han Fei all the things he needed to pay attention to, and after the instructions, he reached out and pointed to the door of the room, "Go, don't look back after you leave here, just pretend that the two of us have never met, hopefully, this will make the butterfly notice you a little later."
Han Fei stood in the room without moving, knowing that this would most likely be the last time he would see Meng Changxi.
Seeing Han Fei's hesitation, Meng Changxi showed a slightly more humane side for the first time, as he patted Han Fei's shoulder: "One of the luckiest things that happened to me in these ten years was that I met you when I had very little life left. If you really want to catch the butterfly, if you really want to avenge the dead, if you really want to know everything, then do as I say."
Meng Changxi tried his best to show a smile, but the scars on his face were torn and his expression was very frightening: "I didn't mean to scare you, I just haven't smiled for ten years and now I've forgotten how to smile."
His last words touched Han Fei.
"I hope your plan will go well, good luck."
After Han Fei finished speaking, he left Wei Youfu's father's house and rushed to the address that Meng Changxi had told him.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Han Fei arrived at the far outskirts of New Shanghai, where hardly a single person could be seen.
With the development of technology, families living in the city are getting increasingly larger and larger, and many people would rather be crammed into hive apartments of a dozen square meters in the central area than run alone to the far suburbs to live.
Walking through the rare dirt road, Han Fei found the happy neighborhood Meng Changxi mentioned behind an abandoned chemical plant.
This place has been abandoned for a long time, the weeds are overgrown, the walls are badly damaged by rainwater corrosion, and there is a warning sign of dangerous buildings next to it.
However, even though that warning sign is many years old, it is full of rust stains and could fall off at any time.
"This building has exactly ten floors, the number of floors is the same as in the game, but the arrangement inside the building is completely different from the game, the households are mostly made of wooden room doors."
With doubts, Han Fei carefully entered the apartment building.
A musty smell wafted through the air, and there was garbage and badly damaged furniture everywhere. This place seemed to be rarely visited even by homeless people, and a thick layer of dust fell on many things.
Coming to the fourth floor, Han Fei looked at room 1044 in front of him and got a very fantastic feeling, as if reality and the game overlapped here.
Holding the doorknob, Han Fei gave it a little push before realizing that the door's spindle had long been destroyed.
Entering the house, Han Fei hit a cold shiver.
It was obviously daytime, but this room was very gloomy, and the living room was decorated with all kinds of paper-tied furniture.
"It feels like this room is prepared for the dead."
Because of the layout of the building, it is difficult for sunlight to shine into the living room, and many of those paper figures and paper furniture with some kind of filling have become moldy and emit a foul smell.
" Meng Changxi told me to go to the bathroom."
Walking through the pile of paper furniture, Han Fei pushed open the bathroom door, and he found the information Meng Changxi had mentioned under the fourth-floor tile.
After opening it, Han Fei saw a letter with blood on it.
The letter was marked with seven addresses, corresponding to seven rooms in the building, which contained buried parts of the bodies of the victims of the human jigsaw puzzle case that had still not been found.
It also seems to be part of the ritual that connects the seven rooms in their locations, somewhat like the wings of a butterfly.
" How much does Butterfly know about the Black Box and the deep world of Perfect Life? Why is there a building in the game that is similar to the one in reality?"
After remembering the numbers of these seven rooms, Han Fei continued to look through the information. It was no accident that the killer of the human jigsaw puzzle case would choose this building to bury some of the corpses.
This building was haunted decades ago, and there were many strange and bizarre stories and rumors about it, and it was also a famous place for suicide in New Shanghai at that time.
Taking out his phone, Han Fei searched for the New Shanghai Happiness District, and dozens of information popped up instantly.
The news report looked like a collection of ghost stories, simply unbelievable.
"The butterfly in the human jigsaw puzzle case buried part of the victim's body into the haunted building, and used part of their body and the eighth victim to put together the most horrible piece of the corpse, the one that meets their requirements for misfortune, despair, and pain, but from the final result, they still haven't found the black box."
Han Fei read the message left by Meng Changxi, in addition to the detailed information about the human jigsaw puzzle case, which also recorded a very large set of information related to the butterfly.
He was about to read it carefully when a popular tweet popped up on his phone page.
In the past, Han Fei did not pay attention to these, but this time it was different, he saw that the picture used in the tweet was none other than Meng Changxi, whose face was completely disfigured!
Opening the tweet, there was a live feed.
The topless Meng Changxi, calmly gazing at the people sitting beside him, as if he was in a TV station, and as if he was in some live broadcasting company: "I will not hurt anyone in this room, but only if you do not cut the signal or play any other tricks."
Han Fei does not know to whom he was saying this, but after he finished, he looked into the camera, "Meng Chang'an, I know that even if I put my life on the line, I may not be able to walk up to you and communicate with you, so I can only use this way."
