In a crossover anime, do you believe that a machine spirit can defeat a fake human?

Chen Yi couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Click save, then upload the rendered virtual image to the "16Lab" website to add a new product.

Hmm? Someone placed an order?

Chen Yi opened the backend and found that the previously deserted backend interface now displayed a medium-sized wholesale order with a quantity of 20.

Wholesale orders... speaking of which, is it feasible to set up an AI for automating drone assembly for androids...?

After all, if he were to rub them one by one by himself, it would probably take him almost a week to finish.

Chen Yi thought for a moment and then clicked on the details of the order.

The delivery address is...

University of Tokyo Consulate in Tokyo.

"..."

Looks like I have quite a presence at the consulate... They even managed to find websites I hadn't advertised on...

"Commander, I've advertised before."

Klukka had woken up at some point and was lying on her side, propping her head up with her hand.

Not surprising then.

Chen Yi searched for the website name in the search engine and found that it had already been indexed.

"There's no need to put up too many ads... We don't have an assembly line, we only take individual orders," Chen Yi casually reminded him, then got up to go to the restroom.

......

"Volume 4 is finished... Next, it needs to be sent to the editor..."

Kasumigaoka closed her notebook and collapsed onto her bed with a sigh of relief. After rolling around a couple of times, she got tired and stared blankly at the ceiling.

In Volume 4, the relationship within the Service Department enters a new phase, while at the same time, the crisis quietly escalates, laying a good foundation for the final Volume 5.

Speaking of which, it seems the animation adaptation is almost ready... promotional video...

Kasumigaoka rolled over to reach the phone, picked it up, and started searching on video websites.

As the video, which lasted about a minute, ended, Kasumigaoka felt a little unsatisfied.

Even though she had watched the video many times.

"Speaking of which, it seems like my junior didn't come to school again today..."

Kasumigaoka rolled over, staring blankly at the screen, typed a few lines, then deleted them.

What should I say? It seems like we haven't been alone together since our last date...

Kasumigaoka flipped over to the other side and looked at the most eye-catching bracelet on the desk shelf, its blue gemstone shimmering with starlight.

Ah, at least ask him why he's been taking so many days off lately.

Having made up her mind, Kasumigaoka quickly typed in the input box.

......

heart.

This is an image that Dr. Maruki mentioned during hypnotherapy, meaning that he had seen this image in his dreams or even had close contact with it.

This imagery is quite different from the phenomenon of half of the boiling.

"what does that mean?"

Chen Yi muttered to himself as he turned on the bathroom light, which was rather pale.

He glanced instinctively in the direction of the mirror.

That mysterious left eye... has disappeared?

Chen Yi was stunned for a moment.

His left eye returned to normal, and he blinked unconsciously, then leaned closer to the mirror to take a closer look.

For some reason, the dark brown reflection in both eyes was unusually glaring.

No, my right eye still feels like it's highly nearsighted, and when I close my right eye, I can clearly see even the smallest scratches on the mirror's surface, so...

"!"

Chen Yi felt a sharp pain in his left eye, and a bloody mark appeared on his temple.

Chen Yi tilted his head, raised his hand and gripped the blade of the dagger, blood slowly dripping down his wrist.

Chen Yi was sweating profusely after nearly having his eye stabbed by the dagger.

The 'self' in the mirror grinned at him, released the dagger it was holding, and slowly retreated back into the mirror.

"bass!"

The hand axe swung upwards with a sudden chop, shattering the bathroom glass and smoothly severing the red hand in the process.

The severed hand fell into the sink, and Chen Yi looked at the other person's pained expression in the shards of the mirror.

No, that contorted expression of pain was his own; his hand had been cut open with a deep wound.

Chen Yi raised his hand and looked at his palm. Besides the coldness from the loss of blood and the burning sensation from the pain, there was also a kind of... boiling feeling.

The wound is boiling.

Chen Yi looked at the red hand that was constantly seeping reddish-brown liquid from the sink, picked it up, and opened the bathroom door.

......

"commander!"

A metal arm pressed down on my shoulder with considerable force, causing intense pain.

Chen Yi came to his senses and found that it was the robot controlled by Krochai that was pressing on his shoulder.

He looked in the mirror again. The mirror was intact, and the bathroom was clean without any splattered blood.

"..."

"What just happened?" Chen Yi asked Kroos when he came to his senses.

“Commander, I don’t know, I just suddenly couldn’t sense your true feelings…” Kroos explained.

"...The boiling phenomenon has occurred."

Chen Yi was speaking not only to Kroos, but also to the two worried people at the door.

This time, he remembered the scene from the hallucination very clearly.

The pain didn't disappear, but it lessened, turning into a warm and numbing sensation.

Chen Yi subconsciously raised his hand and glanced at his palm, which had been pierced earlier.

There was a thin, long burn mark there.

P.S.: Congratulations to all my high school seniors on passing the college entrance exam! Your future is bright, and this is another starting point for you!

Grade 11 student: Chapter 170 review

Chapter 170

Looking at the burn marks on his palms and listening to their concern, Chen Yi was somewhat absent-minded.

With my other hand, I stretched out my fingers and gently pressed them against the burn mark, where blisters had formed and it was very painful.

It throbbed uncontrollably, like tiny needles pricking the palm of my hand.

The boiling phenomenon... is at least not as simple as so-called stress trauma.

"Yi Jun".

Mai Sakurajima's call brought him back to his senses.

"Really... can't you tell us?"

"Not really."

Chen Yi pondered for a moment. "It's just a little difficult to explain."

Chen Yi explained the symptoms to them in the simplest and most understandable way possible, and added his own reasoning.

"You mean... you think your boiling phenomenon might be an unknown subspecies?" Futaba asked, her brow furrowed.

“Generally speaking, that’s how it can be understood…” Chen Yi spread his palms up and showed them to the two of them.

"This is the damage that Boiling One inflicted on me when it attacked me."

In the hallucination, a dagger was used, but upon reflection in reality, it left behind marks of rules, like a burn.

"I'll go get the ointment." Mai Sakurajima stood up.

"Does it hurt?" Rio Futaba gently touched it, her fingernail inadvertently scratching the blister on Chen Yi's palm, causing his hand to tremble involuntarily.

"It's alright, it doesn't hurt too much."

Stubborn.

"Um, disinfect..."

Mai Sakurajima returned carrying a medical kit.

"Just a tube of burn gel should be fine..."

Chen Yi reached into the medical kit, unlocked the latch, and lifted the lid.

"Pfft."

Suddenly, the 'medical kit' opened its gaping maw and bit off Chen Yi's finger.

Chen Yi groaned and subconsciously pulled his finger back. New burn marks appeared on the finger that had just touched the medical kit.

Unlike the blisters on his palms, Chen Yi's fingers had turned waxy white and were as withered as leather.

Rio Futaba and the others stared in shock at the scene, speechless.

"..."

"Klukka, call Dr. Maruki for me."

Chen Yi took the medicine bottle from the robot and swallowed two pills.

Try anything, even if it seems hopeless.

Chen Yi gritted his teeth, reached out and lifted the lid of the medical kit, rummaged inside and found burn ointment and bandages, applied them haphazardly together and then wrapped them up.

"Let me do it." Mai Sakurajima pressed Chen Yi's hand and unwrapped the bandages that hadn't been wrapped yet.

“With both of your hands injured right now, it’s easy for the bandages to not be applied properly…” Mai Sakurajima explained, her movements practiced and swift.

"Thank you," Chen Yi said, a little embarrassed.

"What did you just see?" After applying burn gel and his fingers were less painful, he finally had the energy to ask the two what had just happened.

"The answer is that we didn't see anything, Yi. You burned your finger the moment you opened the first-aid kit." Shuangye pushed up her glasses, looking at the open first-aid kit with surprise and uncertainty.

This is too bizarre.

"Oh, the boiling phenomenon... I'm the only target, you're safe."

Chen Yi had a better understanding of the situation.

This is a case of hallucination affecting reality... After all, if they also had symptoms of the boiling phenomenon, there was no reason why they wouldn't have noticed it if they spent every day together.

"Hello? Chen Jun? It's so late... Is this a boiling phenomenon?"

After some time, Dr. Maruki answered the phone and almost instantly guessed his purpose.

"Dr. Maruki, my symptoms have worsened. I have been attacked by hallucinations twice in just twenty minutes."

Chen Yi answered.

"...Two attacks? What exactly happened?" Dr. Maruki was silent for a moment before pressing for an answer.

"Once, I had a hallucination in the toilet for less than half a minute... and then I found that there were burn marks on the places where I was attacked in the hallucination."

"The second time was just now. When I reached for the first-aid kit, I had a hallucination for about two to three seconds. When I came to my senses, I had third-degree burn marks on my fingers."
