When the path appeared, a burst of shrill laughter came from the deep buildings at the theme park. The buildings collapsed, and a wrinkly old man walked out of the ruin. His worker uniform was different. It was pure white in color. “He ultimately didn’t pick the same path as you did. The human world might be destroyed by him.” The old man looked at the first-generation ghost with disappointment.

The collapsed buildings behind the old man revealed the secrets inside them. Many visitors were tied to metallic tables. They were all crazy and kept laughing.

“I’ve said that living humans can’t be trusted. You are still too kind.” The smell of blood leaked out of the ground. A middle-aged man in a red theme park uniform walked over. He looked similar to the officer in the Heart hotel. He was the theme park manager, Human.

“We are responsible for this situation too.” The old man sighed. “If you could have sided more firmly with Fu Sheng and not think about replacing him, we would be controlling the first-generation ghost now.”

“Ghost has betrayed us and chosen that mad kid; Dream has always been meaning to take over the first-generation ghost. We can’t win no matter what.” The bloody officer shook off his blood. “Part of our consciousness has been absorbed by the black box. What should we do now?”

“No matter what, my stance doesn’t change. I will seal up the cryptic world to stop it from connecting with real life. That’s the only way for everything to return to normal.” The old man glanced into the underground maze. After the first-generation ghost awakened, the endless maze was destroyed. Now only a dull-looking young man remained inside the ruin.

“Do you still have hope in Fu Sheng? The kid is useless now.” Human said with pity. They placed their consciousness inside the first-generation ghost’s brain. They wanted to use the most direct method to control it, but in the process of fighting for control, they all failed. Their consciousness inside the first-generation ghost was absorbed. In other words, they were incomplete and were barely hanging on.

“It’s not hope. I just feel sorry for him. Even though we have given him everything, we are only using him as a tool.” The old man walked toward the first-generation ghost. Like how it was in the hotel, he still wanted to protect Fu Sheng.

“We haven’t found the source of the laughter. Isn’t it too early to make our move now?” Human didn’t want to waste his time.

“We don’t have much time left.” The old man slowly lost his emotions. His pupils disappeared, and his eyes turned white. His hair, skin, brows… all the colors on his body faded away. When he was pure white, he raised his arms at the first-generation ghost. The giant body slowed like it was apprehended by some power. The theme park, which was covered in red, started to have bursts of white. They were hidden underneath various buildings. They were unnamed graves. Every former ‘Me’ was buried inside the theme park. Their souls were part of the theme park. No matter the era, there would be people who would be fearless and use their spine and blood to support the crumbling sky.

Han Fei felt his body slowing down. When blood and despair covered everything, the graves remained unaffected. They were silent and firm.

“The body is losing control!” Part of the flesh gained its own consciousness. Han Fei saw human faces in the blood flowing through the first-generation ghost. When Me died, they would imbue their flesh and blood into the first-generation ghost. After the accumulation of time, these managers’ flesh and blood could influence the first-generation ghost to a certain degree. Human shook his head when he saw the old man use his last trump card. He hated this feeling of giving everything, but there was no other choice.

“Perhaps I was too confident. I shouldn’t have injured Ghost so heavily.” Humans would always reflect on their mistakes only after the mistakes had been done. However, they would still make the same mistake next time.

Human slowly walked toward the first-generation ghost. He joined forces with all the theme park workers. They stabbed their knives into the heart. Strange black mist flowed out underneath them. Human and his people had all consumed the black mist. They were called humans, but they were actually monsters. In contrast, Ghost’s people were all real humans.

“Using tools is the basic human instinct. Using the animal bones to create weapons is the main reason why humans can manage to survive.”

Black mist rolled out of Human. His expression became scary. No one could imagine this sunny person was the scariest human at the theme park. He had abandoned his humanity. The meaning of his existence was to destroy Ghost and everything that stood in his way. The theme park workers rushed towards the first-generation ghost. Normal tools couldn’t harm the first-generation ghost, so they used their bodies which were corrupted by the black mist, to injure it.

The center of the theme park was in deep chaos. No one noticed that there was a cute boy crying next to the dessert shop at the fringe of the theme park. He seemed to have been separated from his family. He had lost one of his shoes, and a half-eaten ice cream fell on the ground beside him.

The boy’s crying was soft compared to the chaos. He wiped his tears and slowly moved to the center of the theme park.

“Get back here! You idiot!” A young man jumped out of the counter of the dessert shop. He wore a uniform he tore from a dead body. He rushed to the dangerous streets. “I’m so unlucky to run into you!” The young man grabbed the boy and looked around nervously. Thankfully the crazy people didn’t notice them. Most of the ghosts were focused on the first-generation ghost.

“If you run about again, I’m going to spank you!” The young man said harshly. “This place is dangerous enough, but now I have to take care of a child. Stop crying!” Even though the young man was annoyed, he was very kind. He took out a clean handkerchief and tried to wipe the boy’s tears. But when he reached closer, he noticed something was wrong. The boy’s eyes were suddenly bloodshot. “Why are you looking at me like that?” The young man tapped the boy’s face. “If I didn’t risk my life to protect you, you wouldn’t have survived until now! You can’t betray me now!” He picked up the boy and tried to run back to the dessert shop to hide, but he realized the boy suddenly became so heavy. “Come. I’ll treat you to some ice cream.”

The young man was rather afraid. For some reason, once he opened his eyes, he appeared at this dangerous theme park and he saw many people murdering each other. Wherever he went, there would be murders. On his way to escape, he accidentally saved this boy who loved to cry. He rescued him and had been ‘protecting’ him ever since.

The young man and the boy weren’t exactly the best partners, but they had already survived through so much. The event was coming to an end. The young man couldn’t leave the boy to die now. So no matter what happened to the boy, he sincerely wanted to save the boy. Slowly, the boy’s crying weakened.

The young man turned around in shock. He noticed the tears were still wet on the boy’s face, but his lips had a strange curve.

“What’s wrong now? You’ve been crying nonstop. The fact that you’ve stopped crying is making me uncomfortable…” Then, the boy’s smile became more exaggerated. The bloodshot eyes shed bloody tears, and then he cackled madly!

“Stop scaring me! I’ve experienced many things already!” Even then, Shen Luo didn’t think about abandoning the child. He was worried that that cackle would attract the attention of the other monsters, so he tried to reach over to close the boy’s mouth. At that moment, a bloody arm suddenly reached out of the boy’s throat!

“The fuck!”

Every crazy visitor at the theme park heard that voice. They gathered at the spot where the young man and the boy were. Their bodies collided and the pieces of consciousness scattered in people’s hearts started to reunite!

Bloodflowers blossomed. Mad laughter echoed through the night. The blood arm slowly crawled out of the abyss. The young man witnessed this from a close distance. He was stunned. He felt dizzy. He couldn’t believe what he saw. The blood hand seemed to grab the chaos of the world. Then, the young man saw Han Fei’s face!

He was Han Fei, but he gave off a very different feeling.

The bloody hand reached over to smack the young man’s face. The slaps became heavier and heavier. Just as the young man thought his skull was about to break, the Han Fei, who emerged from the endless laughing visitors, turned toward the first-generation ghost.

“I’ve saved you so many times. How could you do this…” The young man held his face. He felt wronged, but when he saw the dead bodies of the many visitors, he realized something.

Perhaps the laughing Han Fei was the one who had been saving him because he needed him as a disguise.
