Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 668 Night Vision

The daytime coma and the frequent hospital checkups made Ai Liang's first reaction to this situation that something was really wrong with her body.

Ai Liang quickly threw off the covers, grabbed the remote control from the bedside, and pressed the switch, instantly filling the bedroom with light.

Faced with the blinding light, Ai Liang unconsciously closed his eyes, but when he opened them again, the world had returned to its original colors.

Ai Liang was dumbfounded: "What is this...?"

Soon, he seemed to have thought of something and turned off the chandelier again.

Except for the area near the floor-to-ceiling windows, which was slightly brighter under the moonlight, most of the room was plunged back into darkness.

Ai Liang stared intently at the bedroom, the previously dark areas gradually becoming clearer.

This is clearly not colorblindness; I've never heard of anyone being able to freely switch between colorblind and colorblind states.

Can my eyes see at night?

Ai Liang rubbed his eyes. To make sure it wasn't a hallucination, he grabbed the remote control, jumped off the bed, and walked across the checkered carpet to his desk, where he randomly picked up a book.

He closed his eyes and flipped to the second half, which he hadn't read yet, before slowly opening them.

The contents of the book were clearly visible, and the dim environment did not cause any reading difficulties.

As the lights came on, the gray world gradually faded and was tinged with color. Under the soft light, the contents of the books were no different from those in the darkness.

What on earth is going on? Could it be that my time-traveling cheat code has kicked in?
Ai Liang couldn't describe her feelings at that moment; she just stood there by the small desk, staring blankly at the book in her hands.

After an unknown amount of time, a faint sound of a door opening reached my ears.

Ai Liang subconsciously looked back at the door, but there was no sign that it had been opened.

Not in my own room?
As if confirming Ai Liang's guess, a series of light footsteps slowly approached.

Ai Liang stared intently at the door until a knock sounded.

"Xiao Liang?"

The maid who was in charge of taking care of Ai Liang's daily life pushed open the door.

As mentioned before, even though Ai Liang's mind is mature beyond her years, her body is still only three years old.

Although he was given a separate bedroom, his room was equipped with cameras for security and to manage his schedule.

Every day after 10 p.m., the camera would capture Ai Liang's large movements and then send a reminder to the maid in charge of the night shift.

If it's just a simple movement like turning over in bed, the maid won't come over.

But if I get up directly like this, the maid will come from the next room to check on me.

Of course, if Ai Liang wakes up in the middle of the night wanting something to eat or drink, she can also take the initiative to use the phone next to her to contact the other party to prepare a late-night snack.

Seeing Ai Liang standing by the desk with a book in her hand, the maid stepped forward and put the book back on the small bookshelf.

Then the maid knelt down and gently patted Ai Liang's shoulder: "You've just woken up from a coma, so you should listen to the doctor's advice and rest well. Don't put any pressure on your brain, okay?"

"I just couldn't sleep, so I came down for a walk to get some fresh air."

Ai Liang pursed her lips and said, "I was unconscious for a day and just slept for a few hours, so I'm not sleepy right now."

"Then... shall I go find some soothing music?" the maid asked softly.

Ai Liang refused without even thinking: "No, no need. I just want to sit quietly by myself for a while. Can you please not bother me?"

"But……"

The maid wanted to say something more, but seeing Ai Liang's increasingly furrowed brows, she chose to keep quiet.

The maid who takes care of Ai Liang during the day is not only responsible for Ai Liang's daily life, but can also exercise the responsibilities of a guardian to a certain extent, and criticize, guide and educate Ai Liang in life.

She was just a maid who worked the night shift and didn't have that kind of authority.

Ai Liang is a sensible person. She knows how not to cause trouble for others. She has already said so much, and any further advice will only annoy people.

After persuading the maid to leave, Ai Liang clenched her fist with her back to the camera.

He wondered if it was just his imagination, but he felt as if his strength had increased considerably.

"The bedroom is very soundproof; even if I were singing with a microphone in there, the neighbors wouldn't hear me. But just now, those footsteps..."

Ai Liang turned and walked towards the French windows. After opening the window, he closed his eyes and focused his attention on his ears.

As expected, the rustling of leaves in the night wind, the chirping of insects in the bushes, and the faint sound of a TV drama coming from next door were all clearly audible.

After focusing her attention on the next room, Ai Liang could even clearly hear the dialogue of the characters in the TV series.

Ai Liang opened her eyes, walked to the railing, raised her hand, grabbed the railing, and climbed up.

Feng Chengfu's villa was higher than ordinary residences on each floor, and Ai Liang's room was on the third floor, more than ten meters above the ground.

Ai Liang is afraid of heights; she experiences fear whenever her body is more than a certain height above the ground.

Even when Feng Chengfu dismounts first, leaving Ai Liang alone on the horse for a few seconds, Ai Liang will unconsciously grip the saddle tightly.

But Ai Liang stood calmly on the railing, looking down. She felt no fear whatsoever, and even had a sense of wanting to imitate a heroic landing.

Suddenly, Ai Liang chuckled and said, "What am I thinking? There are security cameras in the room. If I jump down and then go back to the room, won't the cameras capture everything clearly?"

After muttering to himself, Ai Liang turned around and jumped back onto the balcony. Only then did he belatedly realize that all he had ever cared about was how to explain things to his family, and he seemed to have never worried about getting hurt by jumping from the third floor.

An indescribable feeling began to emerge.

Although Ai Liang struggled in society on her own in her previous life, she was still in her twenties and had fantasized about accidentally gaining superpowers.

However, after gaining night vision and super hearing—two superpowers that, while not particularly strong, were clearly beyond the range of normal humans—he felt little joy or shock.

Instead, it stirred up a certain rebellious will deep within me.

Ai Liang recalled the impatient and irritable voice within her own heart.

Are the changes in the body a sign of the body's self-evolution, or a precursor to gradually losing control of the body?

Before hearing that voice, Ai Liang might have gladly accepted these long-overdue advantages, but the presence of that unfamiliar voice left Ai Liang feeling like she had a fishbone stuck in her throat.

The story suggests that falling off a cliff can lead to encountering unparalleled secret manuals and receiving powerful guidance from great masters. However, the reality is more likely that the person is possessed by another body or that an old demon has taken over their body.

There's no such thing as a free lunch. My harsh reality ultimately crushed my beautiful fantasy of supernatural powers.

Ai Liang returned to her room with a stern face, glanced at the alarm clock, and then lay on her side with her back to the camera.

Although there were still several hours before her usual wake-up time, which would have allowed her to explore her inner world again, Ai Liang decided not to take the risk.

It wasn't that he was afraid of being possessed by an unknown voice, but rather that he couldn't guarantee he would wake up before the maid called him, since the flow of time was only a rough estimate and hadn't been verified multiple times.

Ai Liang was worried that her family wouldn't be able to wake her up and would send her back to the hospital because she had entered her inner world.
