-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Don't expect the sound insulation of this kind of student dormitory to be so strong. Compared with some student dormitories like high-end hotels, the conditions of this dormitory are simply unsightly.
It was precisely because of this that Kamijou Touma's heart-piercing roar passed through the wall.
Tsuchimikado Motoharu, who had just returned to the dormitory in the middle of the night, shook slightly, and sat up suddenly after lying down just now.
"Could it be...Ah Shang?"
Immediately jumping up from the bed, Tsuchimikado Motoharu put on his shoes and rushed out the door.
Although all the focus is on his younger sister, it doesn't mean that Tsuchimikado Motoharu doesn't care about Kamijou Touma at all.
Let's count it down a little bit, starting from entering Academy City, the battle between the multi-faceted spy and a certain celebration monster.
From the chasing battle at the beginning, to the dance fight in the rain not long ago.Tsuchimikado Motoharu had never really won.If you are facing someone who is already well-known in the magic world, then Tsuchimikado Motoharu is fine.
But the one who attacked him one after another was a student from Academy City. Even though the opponent was a member of Academy City Anbe, compared to Tsuchimikado Motoharu who understands the two worlds, he is someone who doesn't even see the reality of the world clearly. layman.Because of this, it seems that Tsuchimikado Motoharu is very incompetent if he has not been able to win.
Even if it's just a one-time victory, Tsuchimikado Motoharu is looking for a chance to defeat the opponent.
He had thought that letting Kamijou Touma escape from revenge would give him the victory he craved.But now it seems that Kamijou Touma may have encountered the opponent's murderous hands.
Too cruel!What time is it? There is no class tomorrow!
What a narrow-minded person can continue to play pranks at this point in time! !
Hurriedly came to the door where the number plate was deducted, because of the emergency, Motoharu Tsuchimikado didn't intend to knock on the door, he kicked directly, accompanied by the splash of sawdust, the door lock was directly kicked, Motoharu Tsuchimikado kicked Three steps and two steps came to Kamijou Touma's dormitory.
However, there was no one in Kamijou Touma's dormitory.
No, it's not just people. After reaching out to turn on the light in the room and taking a look, Tsuchimikado Motoharu couldn't even find Kamijou Touma's schoolbag.Back to the entrance, Kamijou Touma's shoes were not seen here either.
If we judge based on these clues, we can only conclude that Kamijou Touma did not return to the dormitory today.
"But the voice just now... is definitely Ah Shang's. And the distance is very close... Wait, very close? How close is this very close? How close is it?"
Suddenly realizing something, Tsuchimikado Motoharu set his eyes on the door without the number plate, and then he ran to the aisle again, glanced at the number plate that he brought back and put it on the door again.Finally, he passed the door of Kamijou Touma's dormitory and moved forward by another door.
On the door of this room, there is Kamijou Touma's number plate.
"So...that's what happened. It's such a simple and practical trick, bastard!!"
Tsuchimikado Motoharu, who returned to the dormitory late at night, suddenly noticed that his number plate was missing when he opened the door. After searching around subconsciously, he unexpectedly found his number on Kamijou Touma's door. house number.Thinking that Kamijou Touma was idle and had nothing to do, he just took back the house number and didn't think much about it.
But if it is applied to the current situation, one thing can be found.
The appearance of this dormitory looks like a typical suite apartment.In other words, a square building with doors lined up along the corridors.Very drab and featureless arrangement.
To distinguish the location of one's dormitory, one can only rely on the distance and the number plate on the door.
If someone deliberately switched the number plates of the two doors, then the people who saw it would probably mistake their own dormitory if they were careless.
Tsuchimikado Motoharu is standing in front of the door with Kamijou Touma's nameplate on it right now. If he had calculated correctly, Kamijou Touma, who was left behind, should instinctively walk to the door of his dormitory after returning, but Because the number plate belonged to him, he went back and entered the room with the number plate of Kamijou Touma's room.
Regardless of all other conditions for the time being, as far as the result is concerned, this trick, which is simpler and clearer than magic tricks, has indeed successfully induced Kamijou Touma.
If Kamijou Touma had been able to walk a few steps forward at that time, to the door of Tsuchimikado Motoharu's room and see the door without the number plate, maybe he could still wake up.
Obviously the biggest flaw was right in front of him from the very beginning, but Kamijou Touma just didn't notice it.
In other words, the opponent casually opened the loophole here, and from the very beginning, he predicted that Kamijou Touma would definitely fall for it.How arrogant and arrogant this is.
The same method was followed, and the sawdust flew up again, and another door was kicked open by Tsuchiyamon Yuanchun.
Although there seemed to be a lot of movement, no one else in the same building seemed to wake up. It seemed that even teenagers with high energy in adolescence needed to replenish their energy at night once they had completely exhausted their energy during the day.
Of course, maybe doing some exercise before going to bed, and putting a few extra white paper towels in the trash can in the room will help you sleep more soundly and soundly.
Tsuchimikado Motoharu who kicked open the door first felt a bone-chilling chill, the whole room was covered with a strange blue hue for some unknown reason, and the ground was covered with white mist.
This kind of coldness cannot be caused by the air conditioner, maybe something like dry ice is used, and a small refrigerator is not impossible.
"It's right here."
He ran into the room again in three steps and two steps. I don't know if it was due to the cooling of the white mist, or the stress response of suddenly entering a cold environment from a hot and dry environment.Tsuchimikado Motoharu only felt the creeps all over his body.
The room presented in front of his eyes is simply a replica of Kamijou Touma’s room. Whether it’s the TV, the bookshelf, or the comic books, game consoles, radio, etc. scattered on the floor, everything seems to be It is a simple copy and paste using a computer, and it can be 100% the same.
but!
This is reality, and there is no such convenient +1 operation in reality!
It is precisely because of this that it feels creepy.
When exactly, when no one noticed, there was such an identical dormitory right next to Kamijou Touma's dormitory.
Just imagining whether there is the same thing next door to your own room is scary enough.What's even more frightening is that Kamijou Touma entered this room without even noticing it.
The schoolbag thrown aside, the traces of rest on the bed, and the details that can reflect the traces of activities all prove what Kamijou Touma has experienced in this room.
What has been carefully planned by someone to the present.
The reason why Kamijou Touma didn't notice even after going through the wrong door was found.Because he "didn't" go wrong at all.
I wanted to turn on the light, but I couldn't turn it on even if I pressed the switch of the light.
"Cut off the power? No, it should simply cut off the power line."
The lighting provided in the room could not be used, hesitating for a while, Motoharu Tsuchimikado returned to his room and brought a flashlight.
Kamijou Touma is not visible in the room at first glance, so it is possible to consider the possibility that Kamijou Touma is no longer in this room.
Of course, regardless of whether Kamijou Touma is still in the room, the first thing to do is to investigate this room.
"There is no trace of magic power, and the flow of dragon veins has not changed. In other words, is it the power of technology?"
With the flashlight on, Tsuchimikado Motoharu began to search in the room.
Take the books off the bookshelf, and you can see something like a projector hidden behind the bookshelf. There should be more than one of the same thing in this room.
That's what makes the eerie shade of light blue.This thing should also be able to perform cross-projection to project things like 3D stereoscopic images in reality.
Tu Yumen Yuanchun understood.
No wonder I couldn't find anything in Kamijou Touma's dormitory. It turned out that all the layouts were arranged here.
Suddenly, Tsuchimikado Motoharu found something to be concerned about again, he flipped through the manga in his hand.
The same thing is naturally available in the real Kamijo Touma Dormitory.However, there is a difference between the two.
The real room in Kamijou Touma is a little newer.This is a little bit old.
Or to be more precise.The one in Kamijou Touma's room was deliberately aged.And this book is the manga Kamijou Touma has read many times.
The room with the fakes was mixed with the real ones.
"Is that so... If you put it this way, there should be a lot of "original" things in Ah Shang's room in this room?Enter Ah Shang's dormitory frequently but do nothing?
No, actually did.The counterfeit was exchanged for the real one.Fakes are mixed with real ones, and real ones are mixed with fake ones.This is the source of Ah Shang's strange feeling. "
People's perception is very keen, and it can be directly sensed by simple fraud.But such a confusion between true and false will produce a vague sense of distance.
"It's too narrow-minded to not hesitate to do this."
According to the traces shown, Tsuchimikado Motoharu came to the bedside.
There was no one on the bed.In other words...
"Is it under the bed? Is it hiding here or is there some other reason?"
Flicking the projector in his hand, an image of a bowed female ghost was projected in the air.
"Fuck!"
It is precisely because he is an onmyoji that he can really feel how grassy this thing is.
Tsuchimikado Motoharu lay on the ground and lit up the bed.
It can be seen that under the bed, there is a shivering teenager who has lost consciousness.
"There is such a terrible killer as Fantasy Killer, but you are frightened unconscious by a fake ghost? This is too embarrassing."
Chapter 3 Phase [-], completed. The end of the plan.
"Hmph, of course it's not that simple to scare this guy into unconsciousness."
In this student dormitory, the passage leading to the top floor was firmly blocked. Not only that, even when it was blocked, a large lock was added to the closed door with no one knowing who had the key.Even the button for the elevator leading to the roof was blocked by iron plates.
These moves are all meant to keep out the men and women who are trying to do some whimsical, wholesome, mechanical reciprocation of the roof to and fro.
But now, on the roof of the school dormitory that should have been blocked, there was a man and a woman blowing the scorching wind of the building.
Of course, they're not doing something that's forbidden.
On the edge of the building, the boy standing on the left held his right wrist slightly with his left hand, and his right hand was moving counterclockwise.
"Phase 3, complete. End of plan."
"Is it really okay, senior?"
The petite girl with twin ponytails standing on the right looks like a primary school student at best, the size of a junior high school.
Compared with the calmness of the boy on the left, and even a little carefree, she seemed a little helpless and anxious.
"Is it really possible to achieve that level? Anyway, this is a bit too big a scene."
"It's okay, don't underestimate that guy's nerve endurance. Rather, if you can't do it to this level, you will fail."
The plan was planned as early as the beginning.Although it is the last one in terms of actual order, it is the first one in terms of plan formulation and the one with the most investment.
Including spending a long time and a huge amount of money to reproduce the two dormitories.Including those machines used.But it's all worth it to get the results you want.
People's feelings are very keen, even if they are only superficially the same, but there is no way to successfully deceive people without feeling familiar.
Therefore, it is necessary to add a familiar element to an environment that should be unfamiliar.That is, objects that are taken for granted in life.
Because Shirai Kuroko also had a little interest in this matter, Gan Quanyou simply used the prank as an excuse to involve Shirai Kuroko in the plan to cooperate.
During school, either Shirai Kuroko, Kanizumi Yu, or some other people would sneak into Kamijou Touma's dormitory to collect information and materials, and constantly improve the Kamijou Touma dormitory No. 2 next door.
In the process, the deliberately old things will be constantly replaced with the things in Kamijou Touma's room.
Although I deliberately made old things as they are, they are not things I have used before, so I feel strange.
But rationally, he doesn't think too much about it, which is why Kamijou Touma feels weird.
Confusing the sense of distance and familiarity to a certain extent, for Kamijou Touma, the boundaries and differences between the original dormitory and the replica dormitory will be infinitely blurred.
Of course, just leaving it like this is not enough.
As Tsuchimikado Motoharu guessed, conducting a large search of the entire room was actually secretly inducing them to do it.
The reason for doing this is to convince Kamijou Touma that there is nothing strange in his room.
Therefore, when encountering those false projection ghosts, he will not wonder if there is something like a projector in the room.
And this is just preliminary preparations.
As expected, the real drama took place after Kamijou Touma woke up.
Whether it's a blue hue or a low-temperature chill.These are all shaping and embellishing the environment, and in the heart of Kamijou Touma, who has not yet figured out what happened, the foreshadowing of "it must be a ghost" is planted.
Kamijou Touma encountered a total of four "ghosts" in the room. The woman who stared at him for the first time, and the rotting corpse sitting next to him for the second time, these are the simplest projections. Cutting off the projection when he swings his Fantasy Killer will give Kamijou Touma the illusion that the ability is working.
Reverse deduction from this point will also allow him to obtain the illusion that these things are "genuine".
With Touma's psychological quality above, he can almost calm down and deal with the danger at this time.Well, just fell into another trap.
It is meaningless to simply continue to be frightened, and the simple fright is nothing but the accumulation of frightening degrees. Once Kamijou Touma gets used to it and adapts, it will be a waste of time.Therefore, it is necessary to reassure him.
The hand that grabbed Kamijou Touma's wrist for the third time was Kanizumi Yu's hand after special treatment. This time, it was to give Kamijou Touma a real touch and further erase his doubts about projections or abilities.
As expected, Kamijou Touma waved his right hand without even thinking about it again.The phrase "I'll die for you" also proves that Kamijou Touma had calmed down at that time and gained a sense of peace of mind.
A sense of security that fantasy killers can function, that they can master the situation themselves.
It was this sense of security that Kamijou Touma ignored. The hand that grabbed him was released first, and then left his right hand before disappearing.
spatial movement...
This is a trick that only Shirai Kuroko can assist.
The current Shirai Kuroko has no way to move himself, only to move others.Therefore, Shirai Kuroko and Kanizumi actually sneaked into the room before Kamijou Touma woke up.Lamps that cannot be turned on are not just for setting the mood, but also to hide their presence.
