Horror Game Designer Chapter 67: Ghost!

Yan Qi turned around and looked into Gao Ming’s bloodshot eyes!

“Bro…ther?”

Yan Qi didn’t have the chance to react as Gao Ming swung the brick in his hand three times!

Yan Qi fell to the ground. He didn’t expect someone to be behind him and directly assaulted him. He wanted to struggle, but Gao Ming shoved medicine into his mouth.

“You…” His mind blurred. It was hard to tell if it was the drugs or if his head had shattered open.

“Such stubbornness!” When Gao Ming wanted to smash the fourth time, he suddenly remembered he had no idea if Yan Qi had already killed or not. If he accidentally killed him, he would never know.

He took out his phone to call the police. Then, he recorded Yan Qi on the video. Finally, he woke up the woman inside the room. When she found out there was a pervert outside her window, she was shocked and scared. She didn’t dare to open the door for Gao Ming. She threw out the rope through the net. Gao Ming expertly tied up Yan Qi. Gao Ming was shocked because he even used the same knot.

“Since I left the shadow world early, I indirectly saved the people who Yan Qi would have killed. Each restart would bring a different world. Everything could change, except me.” Since the future was open, he would burn fearlessly. People might fall from a tall place, but Gao Ming was never afraid because he’d be there to catch himself. Gao Ming tossed the brick. He shoved his hands into his pockets as he rushed to Building 2, Zhao Xi’s home.

Stopping before the familiar door, Gao Ming didn’t hesitate and banged on the door.

“Brother Zhao! I’m Gao Ming from Building 4! I have something important to tell you!

“Open the door! Brother Zhao! Zhao Xi!”

Gao Ming knew Zhao Xi was trapped in pain and self-decimation. He trapped himself in the corner of the world and couldn’t walk out.

“Zhao Xi! Open the door!” Gao Ming took two steps back for a running start. “You are very important! Many people need you! They are waiting for you!”

Gao Ming ran and was about to kick when the old door opened. Gao Ming brushed past and flew into the room. He almost knocked the dining table over.

“Gao Ming?” Zhao Xi was so thin. He had heavy eye bags and looked like he hadn’t had a good sleep in weeks. Gao Ming climbed up from the ground. Rain dripped down his raincoat and wet the floor. Gao Ming ran to the balcony to close the open window. Gao Ming sighed in relief to see Zhao Xi alive. He turned to the living room.

The stunned Zhao Xi was so different from the broken carcass. However, their images overlapped in Gao Ming’s mind. If Zhao Xi hadn’t helped Gao Ming stop Bai Xiao, Gao Ming wouldn’t have reached the end. Every action had a reaction.

“I should have come to talk to you earlier.” Gao Ming strode to the living room to hug Zhao Xi. “But it’s still not too late!”

“No… What are you doing?” Zhao Xi panicked, and a note he held fell to the ground. Gao Ming let go of the man and picked up the note. It was Zhao Xi’s will. He left his meagre asset to his aging adoptive mother.

“Give it to me.” Zhao Xi quickly tried to snatch the note back.

“Brother Zhao, I know what I say will be hard to change your mind. This is not your fault. Your brain has a small flu.” Gao Ming was a psychiatrist. He normally wouldn’t trigger his patient. “You’re ready to die. This is a decision you’ve come to after days and nights of contemplation. I’m not here to change your mind. I just want you to give me, the people around you and yourself a bit more time.” Gao Ming took up another piece of paper from the table. “Since we’re facing death, then before death comes, perhaps we can complete some goals together. Like eating something we love, going to a place we live and gain one final thank you.”

Gao Ming gave many examples on a bucket list, but Zhao Xi was not interested.

“I know you want to help me, but I have nothing I want to do. I’m very tired.” Zhao Xi hobbled to open the door. “Please leave.”

“You’ve sacrificed everything for this family but have gained no respect in return. Actually, you need to do is to escape from this environment and start to live for yourself.” Gao Ming said seriously, “Your mother raised you for ten years. You raised this family for thirty years. You don’t owe them anything. You only owe yourself. We only have one life. You should do something more meaningful.”

“I have never been to school. My leg is broken. I don’t know what the young people are doing. I want to do something meaningful, but I don’t have that power.” Zhao Xi put his will into his pocket. “You are not me. You do not understand how hard it is.”

“If I tell you I can the future where one day you’ll become the hero who saves everyone, including me, will you believe me?” Gao Ming touched his heart. Blood flowed from his eyes into his heart room.

“Me? A hero?” Zhao Xi smiled bitterly, “Stop joking.”

“It’s real because this world is becoming different. It has a small but significant change. Everyone can be special.” Gao Ming tried another treatment method.

The mutated heart beat. The heart room became a torture room and existed between the real world and the shadow world.

Blood vessels gathered. Eight arms reached out from behind Gao Ming and slammed into the ground. Blood spread. The faces that represented Life, Death, Sin, and Desire looked at Zhao Xi.

Time seemed to freeze. Zhao Xi looked at the giant ghost and fell to the ground. His lips trembled. The thoughts in his mind cleared. “GHOST!”

Gao Ming held the God of Flesh and Blood’s hand, and his mind fluttered. He saw many people’s shadows on this God.

Situ An sacrificed so many lives and used twenty years to trigger this horror story before its time so that it could appear when it shouldn’t. Normally, Gao Ming would never get the God of Flesh and Blood. He had seen the memory of his other dead bodies. He entered Si Sui Apartment more than once, but he had never gained the complete heart of divine and flesh. He didn’t know the endings of his future variations.

“The power collected to this moment. The God of Blood and Flesh is reborn in my heart. My heart becomes a prison existing outside of the two worlds.

“If that’s the case… Does that mean those, who are sacrificed and trapped in my heart, are forever erased from all timelines? They can only exist in my heart?!”

This new God had Yan Hua’s strongest body. The faces that represented Death, Sin and Desire were unclear, but the face that represented the Life Shape looked exactly like Gong Xi.

Gao Ming believed this had to do with Gong Xi’s grandmother. She was the last person to be sacrificed and the only living human. The elder became a part of God. Her deepest obsession was also inherited by God.

“There are many people inside Si Sui Apartments who became sacrifices. It’s not hard to verify this.” Gao Ming took out his phone.

He first called the charity to ask about Gong Xi and his grandmother. They didn’t exist on the record. Then, Gao Ming called an underground boxing ring in the east city to bet on No. 17. The person told him there was no Boxer 17.

Gao Ming hung up and looked at the God of Flesh and Blood. His hypothesis appeared to be correct.

After a long time, he sat down before God. “No matter what happens in the future, our lives and deaths are connected.”

The face that belonged to Gong Xi leaned closer. The sewn-up mouth wanted to say something. Under his grandmother’s protection, Gong Xi’s consciousness appeared to remain inside the figurine.
