Chapter 382 379 Side Effects

"Mr. Ye."

"I'm so glad you're alright, Mr. Ye."

Inside a ward at Sacred Heart Hospital in the Jinghe District, stood many executives from Ye's International, dressed in suits and ties.

On the hospital bed in front of me, Ye Lan was wearing a hospital gown, her face slightly pale.

"crunch~"

Before she could say anything, the door to the ward slowly opened, revealing Ye Shiyu standing outside, her head bowed, her entire body shrouded in shadow, and her face deathly pale.

Her foot was in a cast, and she was using a cane.

"."

Everyone turned around to greet her, but when they saw her appearance, they were all speechless.

Seeing this, Ye Lan spoke softly.

"You all get out."

"Okay, sure."

The crowd nodded and turned to leave, walking past Ye Shiyu one after another.

Even as the last person left, he thoughtfully closed the door for Ye Shiyu.

"."

So, only the mother and daughter remained in the ward.

"How is Xiao Huan?"

That's all.

"Gone?"

"I just came back from the morgue and saw Xiao Huan."

Ye Lan's eyes widened, and her eyes instantly reddened.

Immediately, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and nose with her hand, but she still couldn't hide the soreness, and tears fell one by one.

She lowered her head and murmured.
"How could this happen... He... He's just like your godmother, such a good person, how could this happen... Waaah... Waaah..."

"."

Ye Shiyu's mind went blank, and she could only lower her head and remain motionless.

At this moment, she couldn't even remember how she got back here from where she had seen Xiao Huan's body.

Before her, only the image of Xiao Huan's remains, which she had only dared to glance at just moments before, kept replaying in her mind.
“唔呕！”

As she thought about it, she even felt nauseous and started to gag, covering her mouth.

Why.
She also wanted to ask why.
Why did this accident happen even though Xiao Huan didn't leave the villa?
Besides, the prophecy didn't say that Xiao Huan would die.
why?
why?
Covering her face, Ye Shiyu's eyes were bloodshot, and her body was trembling uncontrollably.

She gripped her phone tightly, even feeling an urge to open the Yezi app and confront the other party in front of her mother.

"woooooo"

"dong dong dong"

Just as the mother and daughter in the ward were on the verge of emotional collapse, there was a knock on the door.

"Click~"

Immediately afterwards, the door was pushed open.

Tears streaming down her face, Ye Lan looked up and saw several police officers standing at the door.

"Excuse me, Ms. Ye. We are Superintendent Linmen Police Station. This is my identification. We heard you are alright, and we would like to know the specific details of the car accident this morning."

"."

The lead policeman put down his badge, saw that the two people inside remained silent, and simply smiled helplessly.
"Don't worry, it's just routine. We've already learned the details from the medical staff who were on the ambulance. There's something amiss, so we wanted to ask Ms. Ye if she's recently offended anyone or has any key interests involved."

"Offended someone?"

"According to the paramedics who were injured in the accident, they noticed the car was moving too fast quite early on, so they had been trying to communicate with the driver."

The police entered and looked at Ye Lan on the hospital bed.
"But at that time, the driver's eyes were empty and he didn't say anything. He just stared straight at the villa where you were, Ms. Ye. He even changed direction and rushed towards you. His target was very clear, so we suspected that the driver's target was you."

"How could this be? Who did I offend?"

Ye Lan looked incredulous, but still covered her head and tried to recall the events.

She couldn't get any answers, but Ye Shiyu, who was covering her face and gagging, heard this and her eyes narrowed suddenly. She quickly looked at the police officer next to her.

Empty eyes
He didn't say a word.
this.
this.
Hypnosis?!
As the host of the modifier, Ye Shiyu instantly realized something from this strange situation.

But how could she possibly hypnotize a driver to run over her, Xiao Huan, and her mother?
unless
The next second, Ye Shiyu seemed to realize something, and her face paled even more.

She glanced at her phone, her eyes filled with a terrifying bloodshot.
"leaf."

"."

Ye Lan pondered for a long time, but still couldn't get any answers.

So she could only tell the police that she didn't recall anyone like that at the moment.

The policeman nodded, sighed, and said...
"Okay, we understand, Ms. Ye. We'll ask the driver for more details after he's sober. And then..."
"I'd like to ask if there was another girl named Bai Yi present at the time, right?"

Ye Lan nodded.

"Um"

The police then asked again,

"Do you know where she is? We've been looking for her for ages, trying to find out what happened. But we haven't seen her anywhere in the hospital."
"A nurse just said she went to the morgue, but the staff there said they only saw her go in and didn't see her come out."

Bai Yi, is she gone?
Ye Lan looked puzzled, but still shook her head.

"I have no idea."

"Alright. Thank you for your time, Ms. Ye. Please get some rest."

Having obtained no useful information, the police could only take a deep breath and prepare to leave.

However, when they turned around, they found that Ye Shiyu, who had been standing behind them, had disappeared at some point.

"Ok?"

"Ms. Ye, where is your daughter?"

"what?"

Upon hearing the police officer's words, Ye Lan was slightly taken aback and looked up.

Sure enough, Ye Shiyu was nowhere to be found.

She frowned, but for some reason, a bad feeling welled up in her heart.

"Boom!"

At that moment, a deafening clap of thunder sounded outside.

What followed was a heavy downpour.

"goo"

In the dark, heavy rain, an ethereal pink mist was pressing down.

Before the dark, gloomy clouds, the unclean pink mist drifted by, and faintly appeared half of a holy and compassionate Bodhisattva's image, overlooking the heavens and the earth.

"Boom!"

And in mid-air, amidst the faint flashes of lightning...
A figure resembling a teru teru bozu (a Japanese doll-shaped object) suspended in mid-air is being dragged rapidly towards this direction by some intangible, distorted object.

"Xiao Huan... Waaaaah..."

"Gulu."

"Ye Shiyu"

"Grumpy"

"I'll kill you! I ...!"

“Gurgle!!”

"Go to Ye's International Building!!"

At that moment, Ye Shiyu's hoarse roar rang out from inside a ride-hailing car.

Dark, ominous clouds loomed over the sky, obscuring the sun and making Linmen, which floated like duckweed in the raging waves, appear precariously precarious.

“Didi. Ta-da.”

The rain fell slowly, accompanied by the ticking of clocks, like raindrops falling.
In the distance, above Sacred Heart Hospital, an unclean, illusory pink mist rose into the sky.

Across from Yip's International, the surface of the Golden Lion Building also shone with a golden glow.

A taxi pulled up in front of Ye's International amidst the oppressive atmosphere that seemed to solidify into a tangible sense of foreboding. The back door opened, revealing a pale-faced Ye Shiyu.

She leaned on her cane and looked up at the towering building standing amidst the dark clouds.

Immediately, she gritted her teeth, looked down at her phone, and stared with bloodshot eyes at the black-haired chibi character in the app who was tilting his head and looking at her.

As she walked towards the company, Ye Shiyu asked in a trembling voice,

"What exactly are you?!"

Upon hearing this, the AI ​​on the phone smiled slightly and replied,
"Your personal AI assistant, Yezi, is happy to serve you~"

"enough!!"

"buzz"

At this moment, Ye Shiyu, gritting her teeth and emotionally collapsing, gripped her phone with both hands and stood in front of the wide-open sensor door.

She stared intently at her phone and demanded an explanation.

"The driver was hypnotized during the car accident! You did it!!"

"Master, you don't seem to be feeling well. Do you need someone to help you?"

Ye Shiyu gritted her teeth and didn't say anything, but simply walked into the Ye's International building.

"Click."

The sensor door behind me slowly closed, shutting out all sounds from outside.

Inside the door, the enormous Ye's International Building was eerily silent, as if no one was there.

"You shouldn't have any sense, so how were you able to hypnotize others behind my back?"

Ye Shiyu's voice echoed through the building, passing through rows of dark, empty offices.

The place seemed lifeless, save for the sound of the elevator arriving and the AI-generated female voice advertising.
"Ding dong."

"Yezi AI, giving your phone intelligence. Come and customize your own personal AI assistant!"

The elevator doors slowly opened, and Ye Shiyu, soaking wet and looking disheveled, walked into the floor where the AI ​​department was located.

With red eyes and tears streaming down her face, she panted as she looked around the office, searching for the Yezi AI server that was still running.
"What Xiao Huan said is true. Your prediction was false from the very beginning."

As she limped inside, regret, pain, and anger tormented Ye Shiyu's heart.

Countless emotions lead to the same endpoint:
Give up the ability to hypnotize!

"Crack!"

She walked step by step, and pieces of the illusory modifier fell from her body like rain.

The fragments fell to the ground, each one reflecting the image of Yan Huan's corpse that Ye Shiyu had seen in the morgue, illuminated by the lightning.

Why? Why?

"Crack!"

Amidst her tearful questioning, Ye Shiyu finally arrived at the entrance of the server room where the servers were located.

At this moment, the servers in the server room are still connected to a dense array of lights.

A display screen stood in front of the mountain of servers behind it, with identifiable virtual pages flashing above it as well.

[Warning, warning! 】

The host is not dead and has decided to abandon the mod.

【Danger! Danger! 】

The trainer is losing a lot of fragments, and its performance is severely declining.

[The effects of AI hypnosis have decreased.]

[Defeat CG Ability: Destruction]

[Data analysis capabilities, undermined]

[Task system issued, sabotaged]

[Using hypnosis to mask side effects and disrupt the effect]

"Buzz!"

Through a glass door, Ye Shiyu finally saw the server that housed all of Ye Zi AI's data.

With red eyes and gritted teeth, she raised her cane, intending to completely destroy the server. But as soon as she took a step, the ferocious expression on her face suddenly softened.

In my mind, emotions erupted like a volcano, along with a flood of memories that instantly surged forth.
"what"

In just a moment, the anger in her mind began to subside little by little.

"Woo!"

But at the last moment, she mustered all her strength and smashed the cane away.

"boom!"

However, all it could do was helplessly smash the bright display screen.

"Dangdang!"

The display screen was hit hard, and most of it shattered instantly.

However.
Yet it remained bright.

"Why."

Before her eyes, Ye Shiyu's movements were becoming increasingly sluggish, as if the spring behind a wound-up doll had stopped turning.

However, she still questioned him with tears in her eyes.

却也
Isn't this more than just questioning Yezi AI?
Perhaps, she also wanted to ask Xiao Huan.
"Why...did you save me?"

Don't you hate me? Don't you dislike me?

I.
I'm beyond saving.
I already pushed you away, why?
Why.
Are you going to do something so unexpected again?

"what"

Ye Shiyu knelt stiffly on the ground, but the image of Yan Huan pushing her out kept replaying in her mind's eye.

His silhouette lingered in my mind.

Along with that night at the station, when I chased after him.
He, too, gave me an unexpected smile and said something unexpected.

Now, it's happening again.
ah.
自己
Isn't it the unexpected thing that you hate the most?
Why.
Xiao Huan's unexpected smile and words that night, however, transformed into the kind of beauty that I had always wanted to pursue from Xiao Huan.

"."

In this sluggish thinking, gradually...
This morning, Yan Huan's retreating figure, the sunny smile that appeared beneath the train station, gradually distorted.
In Ye Shiyu's mind, it gradually transformed into a motionless corpse in the morgue.

In the end, even Yan Huan's dead face began to blur as her emotions faded.

"."

A single tear rolled down Ye Shiyu's expressionless cheek.

Immediately, her expression seemed to have lost all emotion.

He was like a lifeless doll, with nothing left in his eyes.

She seemed to still remember those memories.
But she felt nothing at all.

Faced with Xiao Huan's fluttering heart, possessiveness, and paranoia
Faced with a mother's affection, love, and vulnerability.
At this moment, everything is completely empty.

In her heart, it seems that only one simple emotion remains.

"Boom!"

At that moment, lightning flashed outside.

"How scary. How scary."

Inside the computer room, Ye Shiyu tilted her head expressionlessly, her body trembling slightly.

She stiffly clutched her head, her body beginning to curl up little by little, her voice trembling uncontrollably.
"How scary. Waaah."

"buzz"

Before us, on the crooked and broken screen, the leaf AI was still running, flashing a phantom interface.

The host's emotions regarding abandoning the mod have stalled, but the mod has been severely damaged due to the thought of giving up, making it impossible to upgrade the mod to the final stage.

Given the current predicament, three possible solutions are proposed.

Option A

[Continue to hypnotize outsiders to kill the host, in order to replace the host who is no longer of value.]

However, the modifier's capabilities are severely compromised, making it unable to initiate hypnosis autonomously through the Leaf AI. It can only be initiated through the host's phone, making it difficult to directly hypnotize a third party to kill the host.

[Probability of success: 1%]

Option B

With the death of the chosen one, the remaining hosts will inevitably target this host and seek revenge.

[Perhaps during this process, the still-usable Leaf AI avatar could be used to incite their anger, causing them to kill the host and thus achieving the goal of replacing the host.]

[Probability of success: 90%]

Option C

[Perhaps, we can use the Leaf AI to continue provoking their anger without letting them kill the host directly.]

[By using the guise of a powerful figure and instigating conflict among the hosts, the modifiers of other fingers can be evolved to their final stage, in preparation for the arrival of a deity in this world.]

Although it wasn't the index finger that welcomed the deity's descent, bringing the deity down was the index finger's sole and predetermined goal.

So, even if the index finger is destroyed, abandoned, shattered into numerous fragments, and its function impaired...

It has absolutely nothing to do with it.

"it hurts."

In the darkness, Yan Huan's consciousness was steadily declining.

He stared blankly into the surrounding darkness, his body icy cold.

"It really hurts!"

"Meow?"

The next second, a cute meow suddenly rang out from the side, instantly clearing Yan Huan's heavy consciousness.

"."

He turned his head blankly to look beside him and saw a cat's eye, as green as jade, staring straight at him in the dark void.

"Boiling mist?"

Looking into the cat's eyes, Yan Huan blinked and hesitated before speaking with a puzzled expression.

"It's Nyan-chan! Nyan-chan!!"

Upon hearing Yan Huan's address, Miao Jiang immediately became furious and started slapping his face with her paws.

However, this time Yan Huan didn't feel anything.

"I...I'm..."

Yan Huan stared blankly at her own body, but saw nothing.

Apart from the cold, he can't feel anything now.

"You're dead now, so of course you can't feel anything."

Miao-chan squatted down beside him speechlessly and sighed.
"Thank goodness, you obtained that amazing ability before, meow! Now, both your consciousness and mine are safe and sound within your modifier, and it will probably take about seven days to bring you back to life, meow!"

"I know, otherwise I probably wouldn't have been so confident back then. But it really hurt!"

Yan Huan gritted her teeth and gasped.

The feeling of sudden death in my past life was unpleasant. At that time, I only felt severe chest pain and numbness in my limbs.

This time, the death was even more agonizing.

She was still somewhat conscious
As a result, Bai Yi pressed him down and performed CPR a few times, and he died on the spot.

Of course, it's not that I blame Bai Yi.

He wasn't quite dead yet, and his whole body was in unbearable pain. Xie Boyi had to help him get relief, otherwise he would have had to endure it for a long time before he died.

"But, 7 days, tsk, it happened so suddenly, I didn't even have time to tell Anle and Tong. Meow-chan, could you go out and tell Anle and Tong that I faked my death and that I can be resurrected?"

"."

"Oh dear, if I died in front of Aunt Ye, and was hit by a car, it would definitely be on the news. If I died in front of everyone, I don't know what I would do if I came back to life."

"."

Yan Huan was still thinking about what would happen next, but after saying a few words, he suddenly realized that Miao Jiang next to him had stopped talking.

Yan Huan was slightly taken aback, then turned her head to look at it.

But then I saw it blinking, staring back at me with wide eyes.

Why are you looking at me like that?

"I can't get out, meow."

"What? We can't get out?"

"That's right, there's no way I can go out and tell Anle and Sakura Miyako about your resurrection, meow."

"."

The next second, Yan Huan was so frightened that she sat bolt upright.

"What did you say?!"

"That's right... um... I was able to descend using a cheat program, just like that evil god. So, the cheat program must exist within the host's body for me to manifest!"

"That is to say"

"In other words, you're currently dead. Although the mod is still there, it's like you don't have a host, meow! I can only appear once you're resurrected and have a host to roam the world!"

"."

Can.
But this will take seven days!!
In other words, for those seven days, he was essentially dead in front of everyone?!
That...that wouldn't be...
over.
Done! !
"You Boiling Fog! What good are you anyway?!"

"Meow?! This is all your fault, meow! If you had told everyone else you could be resurrected earlier, none of this would have happened, meow?!"

"Who knew I'd actually die?!"

"Meow!?"

At that very moment, inside the morgue, time was slowly ticking towards 4:44 PM.

“Didi. Ta-da.”

A faint clock chime sounded, and tears, which had splashed onto the white cloth covering Yan Huan's body, entered her consciousness.

Each teardrop perfectly reflected the image of the stunningly beautiful girl, her face streaked with tears.
"Waaaaah... Yan Huan, waaaaah!"

However, Yan Huan, who was still inside the mod, had no idea what was happening around her.

He was just with Meow-chan.
Suddenly, a bright interface appeared before me.

[You can now use the universal key to replicate the key. Do you want to use it?]

Yan Huan and Miao Jiang, who were arguing, were simultaneously drawn to the bright page and looked over there together.

"This"

Yan Huan was somewhat surprised and uncertain, while Miao Jiang was completely unaware of what had happened.

However, as 4:44 ticked away and the next minute approached, the bright screen began to dim little by little.

Yan Huan frowned and exchanged a glance with Miao Jiang.

Without hesitation, he used his consciousness to sharply touch the illusory page.
"Yes!"

In an instant, the light became blindingly bright, producing a sound like shattering glass.

"Click!!"

In reality, Bai Yi, who was covering her face and weeping in front of Yan Huan's corpse, also seemed to hear some sound.

She turned her head blankly to look around, and in that one minute, right in front of her eyes...
It seems that some kind of scene has appeared.

"."

She stared blankly at the scene, instinctively wanting to reach out and touch it.

However, the next second, those sights, like the aurora borealis, vanished as the time approached 4:45.

"."

In the morgue, Bai Yi stood there blankly.

Immediately, she turned and glanced at Yan Huan's corpse.

“Didi. Ta-da.”

"Click."

"Come here, Miss Ye, the deceased's body is right here. Another young lady has already arrived. Oh?"

At the entrance, the staff member who led Ye Shiyu there was slightly taken aback when he saw that the morgue was completely empty except for Yan Huan's body.
