Survival in the dormitory, I was pulled into the management group

The stone that's been pressing down will eventually fall to the ground.

Synchronization zone.

Chen Bei walked in, preparing to synchronize and then control the android to enter the inner world.

On the one hand, the company sets hard targets for its employees.

On the other hand, now is not the time to overturn the table. Even if we have to pretend, we have to put on a show and keep the company stable.

Chen Bei was about to enter the synchronization module.

A warning sound suddenly rang out from a synchrotron module not far away.

[Warning: Connection with the androids has been lost for an extended period. Multiple reboots have failed to establish a new connection.]

Everyone's attention was drawn to the synchronization pod that had sounded the alarm.

Soon, a dedicated robot came to take over the task.

It looks quite skillful.

Open the hatch, take out the unconscious player, place him on a stretcher, and carry him away.

Chen Bei looked closely at the person on the stretcher, and his eyes flickered slightly.

The other person's dormitory is very close to his dormitory.

The two had no interaction, but they would greet each other when they met.

Chen Bei quickly took a few steps, stopped the stretcher, and reached out to check the person's breathing, only to find that they had stopped breathing.

"He was perfectly fine in the synchronization chamber, so why did he suddenly die? If something happened in the inner world, shouldn't it be the android who died?" Chen Bei pressed.

"Please move aside. I am a medical robot and cannot answer your questions. If you interfere with my work, you will be punished by the company," the robot said in a cold, electronic voice.

Chen Bei didn't move aside; instead, he gripped the stretcher tightly, refusing to let go: "You can't take the body away until you get an answer. This isn't just about one or two people; it's about the safety of all employees. The body lying on this stretcher right now is his; the next one could be any one of us!"

These words weren't meant for the robots, but for the players around him.

This isn't just Chen Bei's problem.

A few troublemakers gathered around and joined Chen Bei in questioning him, determined to make a big scene.

Soon, Qian Duoduo arrived, but it was probably just a projection, not the real him.

Because he had no life force and no followers.

Qian Duoduo glanced around and angrily shouted, "What do you employees think you're doing? Get out of my way, or you'll all be sent to the experimental zone to be guinea pigs!"

"A life lies here, and all we need to know is the details. It's that simple." Chen Bei pointed to the lifeless body on the stretcher.

Qian Duoduo's expression shifted between light and dark, but she finally answered directly: "His consciousness remained in the inner world and couldn't come back. It's that simple. If you understand, then get out of my way."

"In other words, this is the end result of the synchronization aftereffects. Consciousness can no longer return to the original body."

"Yes."

Chen Bei nodded; that was exactly what he wanted to hear. He stepped aside; there was no need to stop anyone anymore.

The robot transported the body away.

"This is a one-time exception. All of you must enter the Underworld today and work for the company."

After casting a warning, Qian Duoduo's projection transformed into scattered, glowing particles and disappeared.

Then everyone received a new job offer from the company, which was mandatory and had a time limit.

"That corpse we just saw serves as a warning. If we continue to use the synchronization pod to control the androids, sooner or later it will lead to a disconnect between consciousness and the original body. Or you could say it's like the soul leaving the body."

"Damn it, isn't this slow suicide?"

"I want to do it right now..."

"Shh! Don't talk nonsense! Let's talk in the group."

The people present were indignant, but dared not show too much, because the company was full of cameras and under high surveillance.

Chen Bei left the synchronization zone to go back to his dormitory, and he had made up his mind.

Halfway there, Lin Yuchuan, whose head was wrapped in bandages, stopped Chen Bei and said gloomily, "Come with me. I have something to tell you."

Judging from his ghostly appearance, Lin Yuchuan must have just been under the influence of a curse.

Chen Bei nodded and followed, arriving at Lin Yuchuan's dormitory.

Entering someone else's dormitory carries certain risks.

Chen Bei still chose to believe Lin Yuchuan.

It can also be described as believing in one's ability to handle unexpected situations.

The two of them arrived at the dormitory's front hall, one after the other.

Lin Yuchuan slumped down and lowered his head.

Chen Bei sat on the other side, not in a hurry to let the other person speak.

There was a silence of about ten seconds.

Lin Yuchuan said quietly, "Whether it's the curse or the game, I'm about to reach my limit. I feel like I've hit the limit. I'm even considering using an artificial human to switch bodies. I might as well use the artificial human's body to survive and abandon this cursed body."

“Doing this comes at a great cost and carries a great risk,” Chen Bei said.

"Look at the mess I look like! Do you think I still care about any risks? I'm about to be driven to the brink of collapse!"

Lin Yuchuan tore off a bandage, and a large chunk of flesh was ripped off along with it, leaving it dripping with blood, like a demon.

Chen Bei remained expressionless, showing neither fear nor sympathy, only numbness.

He had long since become numb, like a wooden doll.

Even the most tragic human tragedies he witnessed could not stir any emotion in him.

“If you’ve made up your mind, then go ahead and do it. I can’t stop you anymore,” Chen Bei said.

"This is just one part of the plan. I have another plan..." Lin Yuchuan sat down again and said quietly, "I'm considering whether to just end it all and avoid suffering. The person who cursed me is not someone you can handle. Relying on you is useless and might even drag you down with them..."

"It's hard for people to understand each other and empathize with each other, but I dare say I've suffered in games, and I was tormented to the point of near death for a long time. You shouldn't be defeated by mere pain."

“I’ve been gritting my teeth and holding on for so long! Even the strongest person has a limit, right? Actually, you shouldn’t have stopped me. The reason I called you here was so you could empty my dorm room. After I die, all of this will be yours.”

"Even if you say that, I won't be happy."

"You are stronger than me. If you continue to develop your abilities, you may be able to avenge me. This is my last request."

“I had a girlfriend in the game, we were very close, and she was driven to her death by a curse. If you also die because of the curse, you'll be the second one. If possible, I still hope you can hold on and survive. If even you die because of the curse, it will be a blow to me, you could even say it's a curse on me.”

Chen Bei spoke calmly, but his words came from the bottom of his heart.

Lin Yuchuan hung his head dejectedly and remained silent for a long time.

"Okay. I promise you, I'll persevere a little longer," Lin Yuchuan said again.

"I promise you, after this game is over, I'll go and help you sort things out," Chen Bei promised.

"He won't agree, and you can't possibly fight against someone like that."

“If he doesn’t agree, then I’ll form an alliance with his rival. I’m determined to handle this matter.”

"Wouldn't this completely drag you down with me?"

"It doesn't matter," Chen Bei said nonchalantly.
