Kroos, standing beside Chen Yi, raised her gun and aimed, but there was no movement from behind the door.

"Can you connect now?" Chen Yi asked Kluke while quickly taking out his rifle.

"Yes, but the camera didn't find anything," Kluge replied.

"Activate the messenger's sensors and check if the overall situational awareness is working properly." Chen Yi issued another command, while simultaneously widening the door crack and pointing his gun at the limited field of vision, guarding against a possible attack.

"Omnidirectional situational awareness is fine. Wait for me to possess the messenger," Kroos replied. She gestured for Chen Yi to prepare to open the door, while simultaneously manipulating the messenger to quickly stand up.

"Ready to open, Mai, be on guard." Chen Yi slowly moved to the door, pushed hard with his left hand, and then quickly retreated to the area outside the death funnel.

"Commander, there are no fake humans in the room," Kroos said after surveying the area.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi stepped inside, only to find everything going black the next second.

It's not the blackout you experience when riding an elevator rapidly, nor the blindness that comes with high myopia where you can only perceive light and shadow; it's pure darkness.

"Mai, don't come in." He quickly raised his hand to stop Sakurajima Mai, while reminding her aloud.

A cool breeze brushed against Chen Yi's cheek, calming him down.

"There's a breeze," Chen Yi muttered to himself.

But he closed all the doors and windows of the balcony before he left, and when he came back, he had just entered the entrance hall. How could the window have been open?

"I'm blind now, there's something wrong with this place." Surprisingly calm, Chen Yi, who was plunged into darkness, first quickly explained the situation to Mai Sakurajima, and then tried to slowly exit the room the way he came.

One step, two steps.

Chen Yi's back slammed into the wall.

"?"

“Commander, it seems that not only our vision has been taken away, but also our sense of direction.” Kroos analyzed, her weapon station on her back spinning, using bullets to break the sealing plate of the ventilation duct, and maneuvering a 'fairy' to fly inside.

"I'll possess the 'fairy' to explore the pipes. Commander, you should try to leave the area in the room first."

"Yi-kun, can you still hear my voice?" Sakurajima Mai asked.

“Yes, it’s probably in my direction.” Chen Yi stretched out his left hand and pointed to the left rear side.

"Isn't this completely the opposite of what I expected...?" Mai Sakurajima was at a loss for what to do when faced with this rather bizarre situation.

"There seems to be a baton in the guitar case. You can poke me with it, and I'll grab it and walk out to try."

Chen Yi had come up with a solution and gave the instructions.

"Here." Something poked at his arm. Chen Yi reached over, grabbed it, and slowly walked forward.

"Yi-kun, don't pull on the stick, I'll take over." Mai Sakurajima almost lost her grip and called out to remind him.

"Huh? Oh..." Upon hearing this, Chen Yi stopped and slowly moved forward, following the pulling force from the baton.

Chen Yi regained his vision only after feeling his shoes step on the tiled floor of the corridor again.

What's going on?

Mai Sakurajima asked with concern.

"I don't know," Chen Yi shook his head.

There is far too little information.

"How about I go in and try? Hold my hand," Mai Sakurajima volunteered.

"It's too dangerous. We don't know what the situation is right now. There's no need to put ourselves in danger," Chen Yi rejected the idea.

"Commander, there are no suspicious traces inside the pipe." 'Fairy' flew out of the pipe and back into the briefcase on the table.

"Should we notify the hotel staff?" Mai Sakurajima suggested.

"Okay, let's go downstairs first." Since the landline was in the room and they didn't have the hotel's phone number, the only way to contact the staff was to go to the lobby.

Two 'fairies' flew over, and Chen Yi put them in his pocket, packed his things back into his guitar bag, and closed the door.

......

"Xiao Chen, you're a little late coming down..." Yui Hama waved to Chen Yi as she saw him.

"Why don't you guys go eat first?" Chen Yi waved his hand and explained. "There's a problem with my room that needs to be fixed."

Upon hearing this, Yuihama wanted to ask something more, but Yotsuya Miko gently tugged at her sleeve, and when she turned her gaze, she saw Yotsuya Miko shaking her head.

“Chen Jun didn’t explain himself. There must be some consideration behind that. Don’t forget that there are also undetectable pseudo-human variants in the world…” Yotsuya Miko said, offering her guess.

But surely there aren't any fake people whose names would cause trouble? Yotsuya Miko felt a little uncertain.

Yukinoshita watched him quietly, lost in thought.

P.S.: My instructor told me that I can only start practicing driving after I book the exam, and I only have five days of practice.

Dude? I only practiced for five days for my driving test (Part 3)? Really?

Summer Vacation: Chapter 100 Fake Bed

"That's the situation. If possible, I'd like to change rooms," Chen Yi explained in detail to the receptionist. After listening, the receptionist thought for a moment and finally nodded.

"Okay, sir, we'll change your room as soon as possible." The receptionist nodded and quickly wrote down the problem with a pen and paper.

"If you insist, we can send someone up to move your luggage, so please don't worry."

"Special personnel? Does that mean this kind of thing happens very frequently at your hotel?" Chen Yi raised an eyebrow.

"Please trust our professional skills. The 'specialized personnel' here refers to security personnel wearing full-coverage protective suits, which can block out sounds and smells in the air and prevent hallucinations. The rate of dummy attacks in Izu is very low. Moreover, our hotel's security is provided by the renowned Guren Security Company in Hokkaido. You can rest assured about our safety."

So it's to block out hearing and smell? Oh, I see. I really need to get one myself.

Chen Yi nodded, silently memorizing it.

......

Sounds and smells shouldn't be confined to the room, so why did I experience temporary blindness?

After being moved to a double room, Chen Yi was somewhat distracted while having dinner with the other members of the Service Department.

"Junior, how about trying this?" Kasumigaoka placed a piece of fried shrimp tempura into Chen Yi's bowl, reminding him. "Let's eat first, we can think about it later."

"Huh? Oh..."

Are there any differences between the new and old guest rooms?

Chen Yi couldn't help but think.

“There’s no carpet, and no radio,” Kluge pointed out bluntly.

"No carpet?" Chen Yi asked, puzzled.

"So what if there's no carpet...?"

"You mean there's something wrong with the carpet?" Chen Yi suddenly realized, recalling the hotel's rules about 'unsuitable' furniture.

"I didn't find any information online that strongly relates to the carpet dummy." Kroos shook her head, not definitively concluding that she hadn't.

"...Yotsuya-kun, your and Kasumigaoka-senpai's rooms should be fine, right?"

Chen Yi struck up a conversation with Yotsuya Miko on the other side.

"Hmm... there shouldn't be any problems?" Yotsuya Miko thought for a moment.

"Be careful, and call me if you need to." Chen Yi didn't say anything more.

Dinner ended in a fairly harmonious atmosphere, except for one person who was clearly distracted.

After dinner, back in their room, Chen Yi inspected all the furniture, while Sakurajima Mai went to take a shower first.

It's almost six o'clock, and the sky isn't completely dark yet. The golden afterglow spills onto the sea, making it sparkle.

Chen Yi checked his phone for a while and found that there was a signal.

"So that radio is faulty," Chen Yi confirmed.

However, he found no information about the radio dummy, nor any clues about the dummy's ability to block signals.

Never mind, let's ignore it for now.

After repeatedly confirming that the room was safe, Chen Yi's tense state of mind, which had been tense all day, gradually relaxed.

"Yi Jun, it's your turn."

Mai Sakurajima emerged from the bathroom, dressed in loose clothing, her hair still wet, having washed away the mud and sand that had stuck to her while swimming.

"Okay." Chen Yi stood up, his gaze lingering on the other person for a moment.

Speaking of which, Mai seems to really like wearing his clothes. They're just ordinary T-shirts, is that so appealing?

......

Most people in this world don't really have a concept of nightlife.

As the moon rose, Mai Sakurajima climbed into bed to play on her phone, while Chen Yi continued installing anti-electromagnetic interference devices on the 'fairy'.

Originally, he hadn't reserved any space for electromagnetic interference resistance because he assumed that fake androids wouldn't have the ability to interfere electronically. However, with the confirmed evidence of the radio-based fake android, coupled with the previously discovered ability of evil spirits to block cameras, it can be confirmed that some fake androids do indeed possess electromagnetic interference capabilities, making interference resistance necessary.

That should be about right.

Chen Yi put the last 'fairy' back into the suitcase and closed it.

We need to develop a dedicated base station carrying case; otherwise, manually opening the case every time we're in combat is too much of a hassle.

Chen Yi took off his slippers and climbed into bed. He reached out to turn off the room light, but stared at the chandelier for a long time, as if he was thinking about something.

"What's wrong?" Mai Sakurajima looked over, her face illuminated by the white light of the phone screen, her eyelashes appearing somewhat transparent.

"It's nothing, just think of it as a PTSD flare-up." Chen Yi shook his head, forcing himself not to worry about those things, and turned off the chandelier.

"Klukka, the night watch is in your hands." Lying down, feeling the comfort of the mattress, Chen Yi slowly closed his eyes.

......

“You will be asleep in bed.“

“And I will be there to watch you.“

"your body cannot move..."

Chen Yi opened his eyes and saw an unusually tall figure standing by the bed, muttering indistinct English words.

It had no limbs, and in the extremely dark environment, Chen Yi could still tell that it was red.

My adrenaline surged instantly.

"Commander?" Kroos's voice rang out. Chen Yi blinked, and the tall figure suddenly transformed into Kroos's appearance.

Chen Yi sat up abruptly, panting heavily, and after a while, he slowly adjusted his breathing.

My body felt heavy and disoriented from just waking up, and besides that, it was hot.

Is the air conditioning off?

Chen Yi rolled out of bed, intending to get a glass of water.

"Commander, what happened?" Kroos asked.

"It's nothing, I guess I just had a nightmare," Chen Yi replied, taking a bottle of water out of his guitar bag, unscrewing the cap and taking small sips.

“Commander!” Kroos called out. Chen Yi turned around and saw that the sheet on the spot where he had been sleeping had been torn open, and a face was peeking out.

Her pupils contracted sharply, and her body reacted faster than her brain. With a flick of her wrist, a matte black HK416 appeared in her hand, and she immediately opened fire. The loud bang shattered the face and also woke up Mai Sakurajima.

"Yi...Yi Jun?" She swayed as she rolled off the bed, then looked up and was so frightened she cried out.

Following the tear in the sheet fabric that the face had ripped open, Chen Yi forcefully ripped the entire sheet off and frantically destroyed the surface of the mattress with a hand axe.

As he swung the axe, a lot of liquid splashed onto Chen Yi's face and body, but he was completely unaware.

"pat-"

Mai Sakurajima reached out and turned on the chandelier, the scene in the room hitting the two of them like a hammer blow.

Chen Yi remained silent, a chill creeping up his spine.

The mattress contained various soft organs, many of which had been chopped to pieces by Chen Yi, leaving them a bloody mess.

Chen Yi looked at the head, where some purple liquid was slowly corroding it.

It was dead beyond dead.
