Restricted fantasy invasion

Chapter 379 Nightmare
Ye Shiyu had a nightmare.

In her dream, she seemed to have returned to her childhood, to the capital of the Dragon Kingdom.

She dreamed that she lived in a small but cozy house.

At that time, besides her and her mother, there was a man in the house whose face was obscured.
She doesn't remember what that person looked like.

I just remember his voice and the words he said to me.

She also remembers that the atmosphere at home was nice.

She has a father who loves to buy her lots of toys, and a very gentle and kind mother.

Apart from the occasional argument that could be heard at night, Ye Shiyu couldn't recall anything else particularly unusual.

Even those one or two arguments bothered Ye Shiyu a lot when she was a child.

So she remembered asking the man one afternoon,
"dad."

"Ok?"

Did you and your mother have a fight?

The man smiled when he heard these words.

He rubbed his head, then asked in confusion,
"No, Xiao Shiyu, why would you think that?"

"Waaah, will Daddy always be with us?"

"certainly."

Ye Shiyu also remembered that she asked her mother the same question that evening.

His mother hugged him, shook her head as well, and said with a smile,
"No, Shiyu, as long as you behave, why would Mommy be angry?"

"Then, Mom will always be with us, right?"

"Yes, I promise."

That's what they all said.

But Ye Shiyu doesn't remember whether she believed it at the time.

Perhaps she had already instinctively sensed something.
However, she thought that as long as she listened to them and did better, making them proud and at ease, she could salvage everything.

"Hey, is going to school really that painful for kids? You and your brother-in-law can't even tutor them properly by taking turns?"

"Yes, Jiahao and I are so worried. He used to be such a well-behaved child, but once he started school and doing homework, he became like a little devil. You don't know, we're both on the verge of depression."

"hiss"

Ye Shiyu still remembers that when her aunt came to visit her mother, her mother showed a worried expression after hearing what her aunt shared.

She saw all of this.

Congratulations! Your child has come in first place again.

Therefore, Ye Shiyu didn't want her mother and father to worry.

Since elementary school, I would secretly read books after lights out at night.

At the end of each semester, she would stand on the podium holding her "First Place in All Subjects" certificate.

Seeing the smiles on the faces of the mothers attending the parent-teacher meeting, she couldn't help but smile as well.

"."

"Shiyu, have you lost weight again? Have you been eating well lately?"

Ye Shiyu also remembers the worried look on her father's face when he measured her height and weight.
"Hey, I've always been in poor health, but your grandfather never suffered because of me. You mustn't end up like me, okay?"

"it is good"

That's why she took the initiative to sign up for a martial arts class at school.

And every time her father picked her up after training, the coach would praise her highly.

Ye Shiyu didn't understand what the benefits of practicing these things were.

But when she saw her father looking at her increasingly strong body and smiling, she felt content.

"Your child is very talented, and her perseverance is also rare. It's like when you were stretching your ligaments, all the other children were crying, but your Shiyu didn't utter a sound."

"Yes, yes, she's been a very well-behaved child. She's never been a picky eater; she eats everything—green peppers, vegetables, you name it."

From then on, not only did she avoid worrying her parents, but she also tried her best to do whatever they asked of her.

Sewing, martial arts, dance, arithmetic, history, track and field.
All of these.
She learned everything; she accomplished everything.

She really tried her best, and many times she thought she had succeeded.

She felt that she could support her family through her own efforts.
If that's really the case, then she's willing to do anything.

So, having accomplished all of this, and becoming a renowned and proud child in the circle, she asked her mother and father the same question again, just as she had done before.
"Will they stay with me forever?"

And just like before, she received the exact same answer.

"of course."

but.
"Rumble"

Ye Shiyu also remembered that night when she saw her mother sitting alone at the door.

Everything in the room had been moved out.

Her previous awards, her toys, everything she left in that room.
Ye Shiyu remembered that she stayed with her mother at the door for a long time, and also looked at the empty room for a long time.
It was as if the empty room represented the hollowed-out part of her heart.

Ultimately, does she really care about the toys and awards she once received in that house?

Perhaps that's not entirely true?

She simply didn't understand why things had turned out this way.

Just yesterday, I asked my parents that same question and received that same answer.
Even though I had already made so many efforts to try and salvage the situation...
but why?
Why.
Was everything she did in vain?
If only I had known it would turn out this way...
She thought so.

In this way, she won't be foolish enough to believe her parents' lies in front of her and feel at ease thinking that everything will be alright.
That way, she won't have wasted so much effort and done so much useless work.
In this way, she might be able to find a better way to save the family and salvage everything.
"Om!!"

In the dimly lit hallway, outside the empty room
Little Ye Shiyu stared blankly at her mother, who was bowing her head, her eyes wide with disbelief.
Immense despair and fear suddenly enveloped her.

And in that extremely heavy emotion, her pupils were wide open to the extreme.
It tore open little by little, and blood flowed out.
But Ye Shiyu didn't seem to feel any pain at all.
Because the next second, a black spider leg suddenly emerged from the crack in that eyeball.

"Pfft!"

"buzz"

Early in the morning, inside the villa, Ye Shiyu suddenly opened her eyes.

Even after having such a nightmare, she remained expressionless, without breathing or making any unnecessary movements.

She just stared blankly at the ceiling, then reached out and touched her eyelids.

After confirming that her eyes were intact, she slowly stood up and turned to look at her surroundings.

At this moment, there was no one around me.

"."

Ye Shiyu's eyes flickered slightly as she touched the slightly wrinkled bedding.

It seems that someone's body temperature is still present inside.

"Sister Shiyu?"

However, Yan Huan's voice came from the doorway the next second, making her quickly withdraw her hand.

She turned her head and saw Yan Huan wiping her hands and saying to herself,
"I reheated the leftovers from yesterday, so we'll just have this for breakfast."

"Um"

Ye Shiyu nodded subconsciously, then remained silent for a few seconds before speaking.

"Xiao Huan."

"Ok?"

Yan Huan turned to look at Ye Shiyu, only to see her purse her lips, about to say something, when a phantom interface suddenly appeared before her eyes.

Ye Lan is on her way this way.

"?!"

Upon seeing that virtual page, Ye Shiyu's expressionless face immediately crumbled.

She stood up in disbelief and looked out the window.

how come? !

How could Mom have known?
My arrangements within the company are absolutely perfect.

Everyone in her department was hypnotized, and even the surveillance footage was completely altered. Xiao Huan's phone was still on her person.
My mother has a lot of work and doesn't go to her department in person.

In this information age, it's impossible for the mother to know that Xiao Huan was imprisoned by her, let alone that Xiao Huan was here!
unless
Someone in the know told my mother about this.

"."

Ye Shiyu frowned, then quickly manipulated the Yezi AI to sense several monitored individuals.

Anle is still at home in Luoqiao District.

Hitomi Sakuramiya is still living in her villa in the Kyōkai Ward.

Tong Yingying, because she was hypnotized, could only return empty-handed from the perimeter.

Spencer.
Although Ye Shiyu was completely unable to monitor her due to her resistance.

Even with Leaf AI, it cannot manipulate or tamper with anything involving Spencer. Therefore, it's impossible to see where she is or what she's doing.

But she's an idiot; she could never do such a thing.

Then there is only
The mere thought of that one and only possibility brought a look of disbelief to the depths of Ye Shiyu's eyes.

"Bai Yi?!"

She quickly reached for the other person's phone with the Yezi AI installed, but upon closer inspection, she found that her phone was still lying obediently in the villa across the street.

Moreover, no message was sent at all.

but
Where is she?
She wouldn't be able to hail any transportation along the way.

Because cameras are deployed along the entire route, anyone who tries to approach this area without permission will be immediately hypnotized and their presence will be reported to the police.

The same applies to Bai Yi.
That night, she would know if she went out and was caught on camera.

unless
She drove recklessly all night from here to the city?!
"."

The thought of Bai Yi doing something completely different from what she knew about her made Ye Shiyu's face turn pale.

she.
I really dislike these unexpected developments.

[Should we use hypnosis to prevent Ye Lan from reaching this place?]

Looking at the virtual page, Ye Shiyu subconsciously wanted to nod.

But the next second, when she brought up the view from the camera, she was stunned.

But in the camera footage, his mother was sitting in the driver's seat, driving expressionlessly, rushing towards them.

In the passenger seat sat Bai Yi, who was pale and appeared to be in very poor condition.

"."

One of these two is the host of the modifier, whose hypnosis is incomplete.

Even if you hypnotize her, what can you get her to do?
Grab the steering wheel?

He killed his own mother by running her over?

And the other one was his own mother.
Is she going to hypnotize her mother?

"."

At this moment, Ye Lan, who was driving himself, was like someone with superhuman strength, completely unable to stop them. They were less than ten minutes away from here.

Ye Shiyu's face turned pale instantly, her heart pounded wildly, and she even experienced tinnitus.

"Sister Shiyu, what's wrong?"

Behind him, Yan Huan narrowed her eyes and asked this question.

In fact, he knew about Bai Yi's departure.

But he didn't expect Bai Yi to be so reckless, actually driving without a care in the world all night long to the city.

Therefore, we can only rely on Bai Yi.

The task he gave Bai Yi was not simply about being imprisoned himself.

If that's the case, after dispelling the illusion of the defeat CG, he could easily resolve the situation himself.

The information he really needed to give Bai Yi to take out was about Ye Zi's AI.

He couldn't let Ye Shiyu continue to spread Yezi AI, and the only one who could stop this was Ye Lan, the president of Ye's International Linmen branch.

"buzz"

However, the next second, just as he opened his mouth to ask a question, Ye Shiyu raised her dark purple eyes and glanced at him.

"!!"

The moment Yan Huan saw her raise her eyes, she realized something was wrong and quickly activated her sword to block.

"clang!!"

After a crisp sound, he successfully reacted, becoming immune to the effects of this round of hypnosis.

But he didn't make a sound; he simply remained in a hypnotized state, his eyes becoming vacant.

"Xiao Huan, let's run away, come with me."

"Yes"

Yan Huan could only follow Ye Shiyu's lead.

Ye Shiyu rushed downstairs in a panic, glancing at the steaming breakfast on the table.

But she didn't have time to eat, and grabbed Yan Huan's hand, rushing towards the door.

"boom!"

However, just as the door was opened, the roar of tires braking could be heard from the entrance of the villa area in the distance.

"Om!!"

Ye Shiyu stared wide-eyed at the entrance of the villa area and saw a black tram rushing toward her at almost 150 miles per hour.

over.
Done! !
Ye Shiyu stood at the door, while Yan Huan, who was being led by the hand, remained inside.

She instinctively stepped back, but by then the tram had already braked and pulled up in front of her.

"boom!"

Ye Shiyu closed the door and hid inside.

At the same time, Ye Lan opened the door, unbuckled his seatbelt, and got out of the car with a blank expression.

She stared at the tightly closed villa door, clearly having just seen Ye Shiyu, who was about to flee the place.

"Tap tap. tap."

Ye Lan walked quickly toward the villa with a blank expression, but after taking only two steps, she suddenly remembered something and turned to look at the car behind her.

"Bai Yi?"

In an instant, the expression on her face changed from a terrifying blankness to a loving, maternal worry.

"It's okay, Auntie. Don't worry about me. Ugh!!"

On the other side of the car, Bai Yi, who was already pale, felt even more uncomfortable, and after being yelled at like that, she saw stars.

As soon as her feet touched the ground, she knelt down and began to dry heave.

"."

Seeing Bai Yi like this, Ye Lan couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"Can I do you a favor, Bai Yi?"

"What, Auntie?"

"Call the police for me."

"Hey?"

Bai Yi was slightly taken aback, and the next second, Ye Lan tossed the phone to her.
When she turned her head to look at the villa again, her expression had changed to the same blank expression as Ye Shiyu's.

"boom!"

The villa door was smashed open in an instant, and Ye Lan walked in with a shadow over her face.

Looking around, Yan Huan was nowhere to be seen.
Only Ye Shiyu stood in the center of the living room, her lips pursed and her face slightly pale.

Seeing Ye Lan enter the room with a menacing aura, she pursed her lips and spoke in a trembling voice.
"Mother."

Seeing Ye Shiyu there, Ye Lan took a deep breath and adjusted her expression.

They didn't ask anything else, like "Why aren't you at work?" or "What's the deal with this villa?"
She simply asked her own daughter.
"Where's Xiao Huan? Is he here?"

"."

Faced with her mother's questioning, Ye Shiyu hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.

"Um"

"call!!"

The next second, a small tea table placed by the door in front of her flew straight towards her, spinning in mid-air with a strong gust of wind.

"Well!"

Ye Shiyu's eyes narrowed, and she instinctively covered her head and bent over to avoid him.

"Boom!!"

The small glass coffee table grazed her face before slamming against the wall behind her.

After a piercing screech, glass shattered on the floor, and the wooden frame beneath it crumbled into pieces.

Many of the shards that flew up from the collision hit Ye Shiyu's shoulder, causing her shoulder to tremble slightly as if hit by bullets.

"woo"

Seeing that Ye Shiyu had dodged the coffee table he had thrown, Ye Lan, her eyes slightly red, quickly walked towards her.

"Snapped!"

He raised his hand and slapped her across the face.
