“Oh my god… Where the hell is it?”

Hong Seo-yeon, who was completely connected to her replicant, was trying to move her body normally, but her arms and legs were moving up and down comically.

Actually, there was no problem with moving the limbs. Since the vision was blocked, I couldn’t see anything, so my body just moved in a funny way.

“Can you really not see anything…”

Ironically, Ji-hoon saw the world through Hong Seo-yeon’s ‘eyes’.

Even though I didn’t know what the error was, I was glad that Ji-hoon was able to share his view.

At least it meant that he might hold the key to solving this situation.

“First of all… Honey, you really can’t see anything, right?”

“I’ll lie. Honey? Trinity can check it too. I can’t see anything.”

『That’s right. As Chairman Hong Seo-yeon said, replicants are currently blocking information being transmitted to the outside. Among them, visual information, which can be said to have the largest capacity, has been completely blocked.』

“Are you lucky enough to see it on our monitor?”

There was no way to explain the situation on the monitor other than Ji-hoon’s words.

“…I think so. Honey, I don’t know if this is luck, but…”

Hong Seo-yeon sighed, but had an idea to solve this situation.

“Honey, first of all… Can you tell me where I am? First of all… I don’t like the way you’re dressed.”

“…You don’t like it…?”

Ji-hoon looks at the monitor, wondering, “Why?” There, the world seen by Hong Seo-yeon’s replicant is displayed.

“Oh…”

A small room with luxurious tiles and a fairly well-decorated interior was displayed on the monitor. It was a somewhat unfamiliar sight to Ji-hoon, but…

“Honey, how about turning your face a little to the right?”

“Like this?”

“…It was a bathroom.”

As Hong Seo-yeon turned her face, a washbasin painted in an unnecessarily flashy gold color caught her eye.

A large, shiny glass window came into view, and at the word bathroom, Hong Seo-yeon was startled and looked down, seeing pure white thighs and lower abdomen, as well as pants and panties pulled down.

“…Oh my god…I was wondering why you were naked…”

Hong Seo-yeon sighs and naturally lowers her right hand. It is the toilet she has used for years. Even though she can’t see clearly, she can naturally find and press buttons such as the bidet button and the water flush button.

“But… why is the replicant using the bathroom?”

『Chairman Hong Seo-yeon’s replicants must live a completely identical life to ordinary humans. If they don’t eat or even go to the bathroom for an entire year…』

“Because someone will suspect you. And honey, no matter how good battery technology is these days, you can’t go 24 hours without charging, right? ”

By the end of Hong Seo-yeon’s short and lengthy explanation of the scientific theory that you can generate some electricity by eating food, she was able to get up from her seat.

“This is really the worst…”

After the bidet’s water flow ended, Hong Seo-yeon naturally took off the toilet paper and clicked her tongue while wiping her bottom.

“…Even this…?”

Ji-hoon couldn’t take his eyes off the screen in front of him, wondering, “Do I really need to do this?” There was a moderate amount of pubic hair there, which was thick, something you wouldn’t expect from Hong Seo-yeon’s pubic hair, and it didn’t seem to have been shaved properly.

Ji-hoon was a little surprised because he thought she had gotten permanent hair removal since she always kept her hair smooth.

“This is… haa, just… . I originally had a desire to make even the useless parts clear…”

Hong Seo-yeon’s face seemed strangely red. Ji-hoon didn’t ask or explain in more detail. Was there hair on other parts of her body that was different from usual? There was no need to ask or imagine such things.

Seoyeon silently wiped her bottom…

“Honey, you can just put your hand lower than that.”

“Oh.. Thank you, honey.”

Hong Seo-yeon, who had a hard time pulling up her pants properly because she couldn’t see her butt, was finally able to come out of the bathroom with a deep sigh.

But still I can’t see

“… Is this the president’s room that we usually use…”

“Oh my god, honey, please… tell me that damn old lady didn’t mess it up.”

“It’s surprisingly clean.”

As Ji-hoon said, Hong Seo-yeon’s room, the president’s room of Mirae Enterprise, was clean. That’s what it looked like.

“If you didn’t have a mountain of BDs and a closet full of dirty-looking liquor and wine…”

“…Fuck.”

Hong Seo-yeon clicked her tongue in disbelief at the thought of putting such trash in her own well-decorated room. With Ji-hoon’s help, she walked forward slowly and very carefully, leaning her butt against the black chair.

“…I can’t keep going like this… like a blind person… .”

Hong Seo-yeon clenches her thumb tightly and becomes lost in thought.

On the other hand, Ji-hoon was able to closely examine the room that Hong Seo-yeon was in, unable to pay attention to.

‘First of all… This chairman’s office seems to be functioning as usual. There are clearly documents piled up on the desk that need to be paid for or checked… and there are traces of the computer having been used just a moment ago.’

Basically, it seemed clear that the operating algorithm that moved Hong Seo-yeon’s replicants had not been tampered with.

“Trinity, can you tell me how much you modified the replicants?”

『Chairman Hong Seo-yeon’s skills are so good that there isn’t much we can actually fix. All we can do is use the emergency stop process to temporarily issue a few orders or stop the action.』

“Then that means we’ll do our usual work… and that closet full of alcohol, and that obscene and racy BD…”

Although it was hard to see at the edge of my vision, I could see suspicious-looking external storage devices rolling around everywhere I looked.

Could that be the famous electronic drug? Ji-hoon didn’t even want to know the effects.

“Fuck… Trying to turn people into natural losers…”

Hong Seo-yeon, who clicked her tongue, was filled with anger. Anger is something that makes people do anything. ”

“I guess I’ll have to gouge out my eyes.”

“What? Hey, wait. Honey. What are you doing with your eyes?”

“If the cyberware eye in the replicant is not sending information properly, we have no choice but to replace it with a new one, and have it send information directly to this side from the beginning.”

『But Chairman Hong Seo-yeon, there is only one hour left until the new product launch. There is no time to anesthetize.』

“I know that too.”

As Hong Seo-yeon said that, she unbuttoned the shirt she was wearing and grabbed the clothes she was wearing and threw them far away.

“Honey, this is… . Even to me, an outsider, it seems really dangerous.”

“Honey, it’s true that it’s really dangerous, but if I try it, my replicant will just get seriously damaged. Well… It’ll hurt so much that I’ll pee myself in real life, though…”

Since her senses were perfectly ‘synchronized’ with the replicant, Hong Seo-yeon also felt the pain she felt while receiving the cyberware treatment.

You could say, “Why don’t we just block out the senses?” But the programs and auxiliary computing devices that Hong Seo-yeon created are automatically linking all the senses.

There was no time to block out the pain now, to return the vision… or anything like that.

‘Damn… I wish it was a proper access point and not a backdoor program…’

Backdoors were also a problem. In the worst case scenario, there was a possibility that you would never be able to access it again.

“Then let’s get started. Trinity, can you access this network from your side?”

“Of course, sir. I can connect. Should I really start the cyberware implant procedure?”

“Okay, wait. Honey, and Trinity. Cyberware treatment… Is it something that can be done with just a few words? No, right? Shouldn’t there be a ripperdoc?”

Ji-hoon was surprised and tried to stop the two women for a moment, but they had no intention of stopping.

Hong Seo-yeon chuckled and raised a finger to point to her room.

“Honey, think about it. I work in this room all day, making new products… How can I be so stupid that I can’t even install a single cyberware component on my own body? Don’t worry, I do it all the time. Just…”

The only thing different from usual was that I was usually under anesthesia, and now there was no time for that.

“This is crazy…”

Ji-hoon had no reason to stop Hong Seo-yeon. However, he could imagine the pain she would feel from now on.

『From now on, we will exchange the cyberware eyeballs of Chairman Hong Seo-yeon. It is expected to take 5 minutes.』

“Do it faster than that. And I have a product that I made last time. Use that. The model name is…”

As Hong Seo-yeon speaks and lies down comfortably on the chair, the black president’s chair transforms into an operating table with a whooshing sound.

Naturally, Hong Seo-yeon’s two arms and legs were tightly bound, and her neck was naturally grabbed by a robotic arm and bound.

─Smart

“Chairman, there will be a new product announcement in 50 minutes. Let’s start now-”

“Shut up! I know. Phew, just wait 10 minutes. Okay?”

“Yes, yes! I understand.”

The sound of the secretary running away was heard from beyond the door, and Hong Seo-yeon wiggled her fingers vigorously and swallowed hard.

『Cyberware Eyeball, Exchange Begins』

“Oh.. Oh my god.. Foot!”

Ji-hoon covered his face with both hands as he watched the horrifying sight on the monitor. Then he quickly reached for the large speaker and turned it off.

A sound scarier than the sound of a drill at the dentist almost filled the room, especially the large forceps hand with numerous needles slowly approaching the giant monitor… It was enough to make Ji-hoon’s stomach ache.

“Ugh… ugh… ugh… squeak…!”

“…Hong Seo-yeon…”

Hong Seo-yeon lets out a pained gasp while soaking in an ice bath.

Her whole body was trembling violently as if she was talking to herself, and saliva flowed from her lips.

The feeling of having two healthy eyes, with their nerves connected, plucked out is definitely not a good one.

“What the fuck…”

At that moment, Hong Seo-yeon’s body shook violently and I thought she was going to die. However, her bio-information was fine. Her heartbeat was extremely fast, but she did not send any information indicating that she was in danger.

“…ugh…”

At the end of the long five minutes, just as Hong Seo-yeon said, the body that was in reality, the body that Ji-hoon could see, was in such extreme pain that he couldn’t hold back his urine and ended up urinating a little.

His jaw was shaking from how hard he had bitten it, and blood was streaming from his lips.

Ji-hoon saw that and thought about changing the water, but he was busy wiping the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

“Haa…! Haa! What the…! What the fuck…!”

Hong Seo-yeon, whose cyberware eyeballs had been properly replaced, opened her eyes in excruciating pain and immediately grabbed the chair with both hands and got up.

She became even more furious when she saw her room right in front of her eyes, and grabbed all the external storage devices that were brazenly placed on her desk, which she couldn’t even imagine had some kind of program installed on them, and threw them in the trash.

“Hong Kwon-tae… Hong Kwon-tae… This old man… I won’t leave him alone…”

Hong Seo-yeon, who was spitting out pain with blood flowing from her eyes, was burning with the desire to take revenge on her grandfather.
