There was a commotion on the internet, and Fan Jialuo naturally knew the news that Fan Kaixuan suddenly fell ill. Many fans tagged him, worshiped him, and called him God Fan. Of course, some netizens who did not believe in evil claimed that he poisoned Fan Kaixuan in order to have his prophecy fulfilled.
This argument was strongly supported by the Kaixuan Group. Their publicity department published an announcement on the internet, saying that the hospital suspected that Mr. Fan’s illness was related to poisoning and had called the police, while the main suspect of the police was Mr. Fan Jialuo. They were now conducting an intensive investigation, and believed the truth would soon come to light.
This statement had become the most advantageous weapon used by black fans to criticize Fan Jialuo. Some people also published a prediction that Fan Jialuo would be imprisoned within a month.
The topic “Fan Jialuo poisoned Fan Kaixuan” had quickly reached the top of Weibo’s hot search list, seriously damaging the reputations of Xinghui Entertainment and Fan Jialuo. However, similar accusations have been repeated many times in recent times. Xinghui had become a Buddha and didn’t spend money to remove hot searches, let alone clearing the names of its artists. To use Cao Xiaohui’s original words—Just withdraw, as those people will be slapped in the face by Teacher Fan in the end anyway, so why waste money.
The company didn’t care, and Fan Jialuo naturally didn’t care. He just casually looked at the relevant news and put down his phone. He was waiting for Fan Kaixuan to make a decision.
Song Rui came uninvited at this moment, holding a jar of colorful stones the colors of the rainbow, and a ceramic figurine with hollowed-out eyes.
“This is a gift for the frog.” He poured the rainbow colored stones into the fish tank. Covering the fine sand, they made the originally monotonous space more colorful. After that, he placed the two eyeballs in the empty eye sockets of the ceramic figurine and laughed softly. “This is a gift for the eyes. I think they usually like to blow in the wind on the balcony. They should be more comfortable with a body.”
The figurine was innocent and cute, but with the turning eyes, it suddenly became energetic, as if it would wave its short hands, jump on its short legs, and sing and dance happily on the round table in the next second. Those eyes were originally evil and sinister things, emitting a cold light all the time, but now they had a different body and had become very cute. The more they spun, the funnier they looked.
Fan Jialuo glanced at the figurine and pursed his lips tightly. He glanced again, and finally couldn’t help patting the table and laughing loudly.
Song Rui had seen his faint smile, indifferent smile, and superficial smile, as well as his sneers and half-smiles, but he had never seen him smile so openly and wantonly. Now he was sitting shrouded in the bright sunshine, his carefree appearance like that of an innocent child. He probably seldom indulged himself like this, so he smiled for a while and then straightened his lips, slowly suppressing his true feelings. However, his eyes continued to burst with a glow, which was quietly engraved in Song Rui’s memory.
“It seems you like these gifts very much?” Song Rui asked with satisfaction while half-lying beside the young man.
“I like them very much.” Fan Jialuo took out his cell phone, took a video of the figurine rolling his big eyes, and sent it to his circle of friends. This was the first time he had had the urge to post on his WeChat Moments, which showed how much he liked the gifts.
The likes swarmed in, and everyone was amazed at the vivid appearance of the figurine, until Yuan Zhongzhou sent a message: [Teacher Fan, have you put Lu Qiu’s eyes on this ceramic figurine?]
Song Wennuan and the others suddenly realized, causing their expressions to look like they had eaten shit. They thought that the video was a GIF that Teacher Fan had downloaded from the internet, and didn’t know that it was actually real! Being able to treat Lu Qiu’s eyes as toys, Teacher Fan was simply poisonous!
[I, a mere mortal, can’t enjoy this kind of cute thing! I’ll Slip away!] Song Wennuan sent a sentence half-jokingly.
Fan Jialuo explained seriously: [This is a gift given to me by Dr. Song.]
Song Wennuan slapped her forehead and immediately replied: [It turns out to be that pervert! His sense of cuteness is indeed different from that of us normal people, let’s thank him for thinking of it!]
[Then our senses of cuteness are pretty much the same.] Fan Jialuo secretly glanced at Dr. Song while typing, with a slight smile on his lips.

Ten minutes later, Fan Jialuo’s cell phone stopped letting out intermittent notifications, and Song Rui took out a bottle of potion and asked, “Can you tell what this is?”
After taking the bottle, the smile on Fan Jialuo’s face disappeared, and his tone was slightly hesitant. “I don’t know what this is, I have to sense it.” He held the bottle and slowly integrated his magnetic field into the light blue liquid, trying to analyze its origin. However, at this moment, the blue liquid began to boil inexplicably, then burst through the cork and splashed everywhere.
Song Rui’s first reaction was not to dodge, but to slap Fan Jialuo’s hand hard, causing the bottle to fall from his palm.
“Are you okay?” He held the young man’s wrist and repeatedly checked whether he was burned, his tone full of lingering fear.
“I’m fine.” Fan Jialuo frowned tightly and spoke in deep thought, “It was filled with great vitality and energy, but it also contained a hint of decadence. I was about to trace the source of this decadence when my perception was cut off by a more powerful force.”
“A more powerful force? Forget it then, there’s no need to check.” Placing his curiosity and Fan Jialuo’s safety on the same scale, Song Rui chose Fan Jialuo’s safety without even thinking about it.
“I can’t forget it,” Fan Jialuo shook his head and said, “This energy is so large that even when my magnetic field tried to integrate into it, it was like a drop of water falling into a lake and being completely swallowed up. It and the energy in Xiao Yanling’s body are very similar, but there are no fluctuations of desire, just pure vitality. It seems to be both good and bad, and I can’t even define it as good or evil. This situation is very rare. I feel very uncomfortable now.”
Fan Jialuo tapped his forehead lightly with his fist, his eyes closed tightly, as if he was still trying to sense the source of the power.
Realizing that his already pale face was growing increasingly pale, Song Rui couldn’t help but secretly regret it. He immediately turned on his mobile phone, played a video, and changed the subject. “Actually, I have one more thing I want to ask you. Can you help me listen to this song? It’s called ‘Seeing Peach Blossoms in Your Dream.’ So far, I have never listened to this song. The people who sang the song developed suicidal thoughts, and as far as I know, no one has been able to escape its spell.”
An unidentifiable voice echoed high and low on the empty balcony, causing the figurine to roll its eyes crazily. Fan Jialuo immediately recovered from the perception of the endless darkness and said firmly, “It’s Su Fengxi.”
“Did you hear her?” Seeing that he no longer paid attention to the potion, Song Rui secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
“No, but I know it’s her. She once created an illusion full of peach blossoms outside a high-rise building to trap me. This song title obviously reflects that incident.” Fan Jialuo unfolded his magnetic field to protect himself and Dr. Song, together with the frog, before frowning and saying, “Have you listened to this song?”
“Yes, I really wanted to know how it induces people to commit suicide.” Song Rui took off his glasses and said disapprovingly, “Actually, the principle is very simple. What kills people is not the singing, nor the psychological implications in the lyrics, but the hidden infrasound in the accompaniment. Infrasound is below the frequency that humans can hear, but it can resonate with the human body. When the infrasound begins to vibrate, a human’s blood, brain, and organs will vibrate with it. This principle is like ultrasonic waves heating food. When this song is played, its listeners are unknowingly placed in a microwave oven and subjected to heating at hundreds or even thousands of degrees. Do you think they can avoid going crazy?”
“But Dr. Song, you are able to withstand this kind of infrasound attack. You are amazing.” Fan Jialuo was always amazed by Dr. Song’s uniqueness. He was so powerful that he didn’t seem to be a mortal, but he was indeed a mortal.
Song Rui said calmly, “Since I can remember, my soul has constantly been torn apart. My life is equal to destruction and darkness. How could I be affected by a mere infrasound? This level of pain may be overwhelming to others, but it is what I suffer every day.”
He didn’t say a word of self-pity, but it was enough for Fan Jialuo to reach out his hand and gently cover the back of his hand to express comfort.
Song Rui put on his glasses and said briskly, “I’m fine.” Finally, he held the young man’s slightly cold fingertips.
“Yesterday’s mass suicide incident was caused by this song, right? I may not be able to help you. Su Fengxi’s strength has increased again. My magnetic field can no longer be integrated into her magnetic field, which means that I can’t just rely on chanting a few lines of ancient poetry to break the infrasonic resonance she creates. Only her own song can break the death call this song emits.”
“But your chanting sound is fine.” Song Rui played an audio clip.
Fan Jialuo smiled bitterly and waved his hands: “That’s because I was holding Yuan Zhongzhou’s magic weapon, and my ability was boosted. But I don’t know if that magic weapon can completely suppress Su Fengxi. If it doesn’t, the magic weapon will be damaged and Yuan Zhongzhou will die. It is impossible for me to risk his life.”
“It’s also impossible for me to let you take risks.” Song Rui put away the phone and said cautiously, “You should forget these two things and pretend I didn’t say them.”
Fan Jialuo agreed unconsciously, but the obscurity in his dark eyes showed that he could not forget it at all.
Song Rui secretly clenched his fists, and for the first time, he wanted to seal his mouth.
On the other side, the awakened Fan Kaixuan had been transferred to the general ward. A group of doctors surrounded him for a consultation. Interlaced data lines connected him to many medical devices and monitored his body data constantly. His heartbeat and breathing were extremely irregular, his skin was drying out, and his muscles were atrophying. He was aging rapidly, at a rate several times that of normal people.
Ding Yu strode into the ward. When he saw his friend’s face, which looked even older than in the photo, his eyes turned red before he even spoke.
“Did you drink again last night? Your face looks very bad. Don’t drink too much in the future. It’s very harmful to your body,” Fan Kaixuan took off his oxygen mask and warned in a hoarse voice.
“Shut up and inhale your oxygen!” Hearing his friend speaking in a manner similar to one’s last words, Ding Yu showed a fierce expression, but gently put on the oxygen mask for him. Finally, he looked at the group of doctors and asked anxiously, “Doctor, how is he now? Is there any way to cure him?”
“Mr. Ding, we have searched through the medical records and have not found a case similar to Mr. Fan’s situation around the world. If it was progeria, he should have started to develop it in childhood. It wouldn’t have waited until now. Moreover, the disease is caused by genetic mutation. There is no proven treatment method, so there is no reference for us. At present, we can only carry out conservative treatment based on Mr. Fan’s physical condition. For example, if he has heart failure, we will give him medicine for his heart, and if his kidneys fail, we give him medicine for his kidneys, but these treatments only treat the symptoms, not the root cause. At most, they can only alleviate pain, but can’t contain the illness, let alone cure it, so you should be mentally prepared…”
“Shut up and speak outside if you have something to say!” Ding Yu interrupted the doctor’s cruel verdict at the right time.
Fan Kaixuan waved his hands feebly. “I asked him to tell me the truth. We have gone through great storms, so how can we still not bear this blow?” After saying this, he smiled with difficulty, but found that a strand of white hair slowly floated from his shoulder to the quilt.
He stared at the dry hair that symbolized his approaching death and fell into a long silence.
Kong Jing, who had been staying by the hospital bed, let out a suppressed cry. She wanted to hug her son, but she didn’t dare to touch his fragile body. “God, why do you torture my son like this! He is only in his twenties. How could you take his life away? Can I give you my own life in exchange? Just let him go!”
Kong Jing’s heartbroken cry made Ding Yu so full of grief that he could barely stand. He held the door handle tightly and said in a muffled voice, “Kaixuan, you have a good rest, I will be back soon.”
He led a group of doctors to the end of the corridor, gritted his teeth, and said, “Is it really impossible to cure? Money is not a problem…” At this point, he actually remembered a warning left by a netizen on the official website of the Kaixuan Group—[If you’re sick, then treat it quickly, money can’t buy life]. At that time, he was very angry and deleted the message himself. But now, this sentence echoed in his ears over and over again, forming a dense rain of arrows that pierced through his heart and former delusions.
“It’s not a matter of money, it’s a matter of lack of treatment. It’s no use searching for doctors all over the world. This disease has never been discovered before.” The doctor’s words gave him a fatal blow and made his head spin.
“Then how long does he have?” Ding Yu had no idea that he sounded on the verge of sobbing. Everything that happened today was like a nightmare that he couldn’t wake up from.
“At this rate, it will take a day or two at most.” The attending doctor considered for a moment and then hesitantly said, “Mr. Ding, in fact, there is no way medical science can save Mr. Fan’s life. If you want to give it a try, why not…why don’t you find Fan Jialuo?”
This was the second time today that someone has mentioned Fan Jialuo, and Ding Yu’s already stunned heart had begun to beat violently. “Is it any use to find him for a disease that you can’t cure?” He was stubborn. Staring at the doctor’s face, he wished he could hear the word “useful” from his mouth. No matter how ridiculous these people’s suggestions were, he was willing to give them a try!
“I don’t know if it’s useful, but Mr. Fan Jialuo is definitely not an ordinary person. Do you know about the evil child live broadcast room?” the doctor asked quietly.
“What?” Ding Yu was obviously not the kind of person who often hung out on the internet.
The doctor had no way to explain to him, so he could only say briefly, “Anyway, you can look for Mr. Fan Jialuo. Since he foresaw Mr. Fan’s fate and said that he can help you, he is definitely not playing tricks on you.” The doctor approached Ding Yu’s ear and said quickly, “Mr. Fan Jialuo is very powerful! I watched the evil child live broadcast, and I believe he will be able to help you!”
After he finished speaking, he coughed and pretended to be serious as he said, “I’m sorry, this is all we can do at the moment. Mr. Ding, please go in and accompany Mr. Fan. We have to continue making our rounds.”
“Oh, okay, thank you.” Ding Yu walked into the ward in a daze and asked, “Auntie, do you know what the evil child live broadcast is about? The doctor said that Fan Jialuo is very powerful and he can help Kaixuan.”
Fan Kaixuan’s ears were no longer very good, so he didn’t hear his friend’s words clearly, but Kong Jing waved her hands with a tense face. “I don’t know, who did you hear that from? Fan Jialuo is simply a liar!” However, she knew everything. She also deleted a Weibo post insulting Fan Jialuo after the live broadcast incident.
However, Ding Yu thought she really didn’t know, so he forced a smile to comfort her and Fan Kaixuan, and then hurried out of the ward. He searched all his connections and exhausted all his resources before finally obtaining a video that should have been banned by the entire internet. The girl in the video who was called a villain by Fan Jialuo made his hair stand on end, and he was terrified beyond words.
It turned out that supernatural powers really existed! It turned out that the world Fan Jialuo saw looked like this. The ugliness hidden under a beautiful appearance and the weakness hidden under a vigorous strength couldn’t escape his eyes. It was ridiculous that Ding Yu had faced his supernatural power, but still stubbornly believed that he was a liar.
Ding Yu cursed his ignorance, stupidity, and arrogance in his heart. After that, he hurried back to the ward and said firmly, “Kaixuan, I’ll go find Fan Jialuo to save you!”
“What did you say?” Kong Jing stood up suddenly, looking shocked.
However, Ding Yu didn’t notice her reaction at all, and ran away in a hurry as soon as he finished speaking.
While starting the car, he called the public relations department of the Kaixuan Group and issued instructions very quickly, “Immediately delete all negative remarks about Fan Jialuo on the company’s official website. Yes, as long as they are negative, delete them! I also withdrew the hot search on Weibo! Which article should you delete? Besides the one about Fan Jialuo murdering Kaixuan, which one could it be? Have you deleted the previous announcement you posted accusing Fan Jialuo of poisoning? It was deleted by the police? No, this is not enough. You should issue a letter of apology immediately. It must be sincere and solemn! Yes, the more solemn the better! Let everyone in the company repost it! Anyone who doesn’t repost it can get the hell out of here! I’ll provide you with my Weibo account. You can edit a letter of apology for me and send it to me to take a look. I will correct it before you send it out. Your tone must not be harsh, and your attitude must be appropriately humble.”
Someone seemed to ask a lot of nonsense, and Ding Yu roared impatiently, “Humble to the point where I’m willing to kneel down and beg Fan Jialuo for forgiveness! As long as it makes him feel comfortable, I can lie down and let him step on him, do you understand? If you understand, then do it quickly. I don’t have time to nag you! Within an hour, you must send these letters of apology for Fan Jialuo to see, for everyone to see!”
The other party hung up the phone in fear, and Ding Yu then stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the Moon Bay Community in a hurry. He had always understood that if you want to ask for help, you have to act appropriately. Their previous condescending approach would no longer work. If he had known that Kaixuan would suffer from such a strange disease that couldn’t be cured, he would have knelt down in front of Fan Jialuo at the banquet!
If only you had known~ Yeah, that’s what a lot of people say, but even if intuition tells them what’s gonna happen, they don’t trust it, and most are even incapable of sensing it due to the blunting that the modern life of an adult brings with it.
Thank you for the chapter!
