Quadruple split

"what?"

Futaba glanced unhappily at Frank Hughes, who was talking to him at the door but still had his eyes firmly fixed on Diana's back. That is, as everyone knows, Mo Tan's current personality is 'Chaotic Neutral' , asked in a cold voice: "Want to pick up my wife?"

Mo Tan was stunned for a moment, and after three seconds (Diana waved back for the last time and reluctantly disappeared at the top of the stairs), she turned to Shuangye and smiled bitterly: "You are overthinking, Miss Shuangye, I'm just a little bit I don’t care if you get bored staying here alone.”

"Bored? Are you kidding me?"

The petite genius mage snorted, stretched out her middle finger and pushed up her glasses: "Who do you think you are talking to? I can play for four or five hours with a little elemental model experiment, deep meditation If I close and open my eyes and it gets dark, will I be bored?"

Mo Tan was so shocked by Futaba's astonishing academic aura that he subconsciously took half a step back, then coughed slightly and said with some embarrassment: "This... I was rude. I'm sorry, Miss Futaba."

"Miss Futaba, Miss Futaba is so annoying! I don't look like a lady anymore! I'll just call you by my first name from now on."

Miss Futaba rolled her eyes, then frowned and said, "Wait a minute, you said you're a little concerned about 'I stay here alone'? Are you going out?"

Mo Tan nodded slightly, turned around and walked into the living room, picked up the "Chronicles of Southeastern Kingdoms" on the table, patted it gently, and said with a chuckle: "Well, I plan to go to the library to return the book, and stay there for a while. .”

Futaba glanced at the big thick book in Mo Tan's arms with some surprise. The bookmark was still sandwiched in the first fifth of the book last night: "Return the book? You finished reading it so quickly?"

"Fortunately, after all, those in our field often need to 'collect materials', and books are one of the best choices when 'collecting materials'. Over time, the speed of reading books will increase."

Mo Tan smiled modestly and gently stroked the spine of the book with his slender index finger: "Although this is my first time reading "Chronicles of Southeast Kingdoms", I have come across many similar books before, and some stories I’ve already memorized it, so I basically watched it on the fly.”

"Just tell me, 'You can basically watch it while dancing'."

Futaba waved her hands impatiently and said disdainfully: "Who do you think you are talking to? I can read three books of this level in one night, and I can even take time to take a beauty nap in between."

Although her words were not modest at all and made people feel a little weird, Mo Tan easily accepted this explanation in his heart. After all, if he was serious, he would basically be at this speed.

Of course, accepting it from the bottom of my heart, 'Frank Hughes' still showed a rather shocked look on the surface. He was stunned for about half a second, first twitched the corner of his mouth, and then scratched his cheek, politely but still. He grinned awkwardly and said, "Yeah, hehe."

"Hey, you don't believe it, do you? You actually think I'm bragging, right?"

Futaba pouted angrily, then quickly walked to the southeast and northwest corners of the living room, found her two shoes in front of the full-length mirror and by the fireplace respectively, quickly put them on and ran to Mo Tan. , ordered aggressively: "Lead the way!"

Mo Tan blinked and repeated curiously: "Lead the way?"

"That's the library you're going to! I'll go too!"

Futaba kicked Mo Tan's calf angrily, and hummed: "Find some books that neither you nor I have read, and let you see my quantum speed reading skills!"

The corners of Mo Tan's mouth twitched slightly: "What kind of speed reading technique?"

"Quantum speed reading, you don't have to pay attention to what I said casually."

Futaba stamped her little foot impatiently, then raised her finger and pointed at the tip of Mo Tan's nose and said angrily: "Anyway, I just want to let you know what it means to be a real fast reader. There is no blind spot for a genius!"

[Ah... look down at your busty breasts. It's obvious that the whole 'face' is dead, so why are you talking about a 'dead spot'? 】

Mo Tan complained in his heart without changing his expression, and then showed a troubled smile: "I didn't say I didn't believe it..."

"I think if you don't believe it, you just don't believe it."

Futaba ignored Mo Tan's explanation at all, and just strode towards the door without looking back, "Hurry up, follow me, didn't you just say you wanted to pick me up?"

Mo Tan let out a sigh, and while walking easily to keep up with the girl's pace (the double-leaf legs are still long, just in proportion), he weakly corrected: "I just asked you if you wanted to go out for a walk together. That’s all.”

Then the two of them left the place where they were currently staying, and under the girl's slightly willful strength, they headed to the Central Library Branch No. 3 located in the Central District of Academy City.

It is worth mentioning that Futaba's various girlish willfulness shown just now, although part of it is due to her personality, but more of it is a suspicion set up to make this 'Frank Hughes' relax his vigilance. After all, in a sense, the Futaba when she got along with 'BLACK' in the Imperial Capital of the Violet Empire was her 'true face', and there was still a gap between her outspoken and short-tempered performance just now.

But the 'original face' mentioned above can, in turn, give an implicit hint to the person 'Tan Mo', that is, the existence of 'SUN' has a unique attitude towards 'BLACK'. On the other hand, this kind of The true and false half-open expression may just be his daily painting style.

Although it seems a bit confusing after careful study, this level of confusion can only be said to be a normal thinking process for the two of them. In short, Futaba's purpose is to hope that the hypothesis of 'Frank = Tanmo' will be established. Next, create a feeling to the other party that one is not on guard.

And after knowing that he is undefended, the possibility of the other party revealing a flaw will be super doubled, and then Futaba, who is not only on guard, but has even been hypnotizing himself to believe that the two are actually the same person, will see through.

But it's not that she didn't think that Frank was Frank, just a sweet/scumbag who had nothing to do with 'Tan Mo'. But even so, she was just ogling a blind man at best. Anyway, ogling This thing is not valuable, and if you throw it away, you won't lose a piece of meat, so it doesn't matter.

As for Motan...

Unfortunately, the character named "Black Van" has always carefully maintained the friendship with Futaba, so whether it is the girl's "black special side" or her daily interactions with others, His attitude at the time was clear.

Under this premise, Futaba's flirtatious expressions are a bit too exaggerated.

Faced with such an exaggerated 'fascinating look', Mo Tan could figure out what the other party was planning by just thinking about it, so naturally he wouldn't reveal any flaws because of his relaxation.

Again, under Mo Tan's deliberate planning, he has taken advantage of the time, location, and people to the fullest, so even though his personality is in a state of 'chaotic neutrality', he can be said to be on par with Futaba. opponent, but in this game, the latter really has no advantage at all.

As long as there is a chance, Mo Tan can directly 'count' Futaba to death!

And all this is due to the 'Black Brahma', a bargaining chip that has penetrated into the enemy and can understand the enemy's movements at any time.

In other words, if Mo Tan hadn't been mentally ill, no matter how hard he tried at this moment, he would never have been able to create such a situation that was beneficial to him.

but……

'Mental illness' is also Mo Tan's fatal injury in this game. To put it bluntly, as long as Frank Hughes suddenly faints and goes offline in front of Futaba, or 'disappears' unnaturally, it's basically... Death is certain.

Under this premise, there is only one reason why Mo Tan is still willing to act with Futaba, and that is——

….

Twenty minutes later, Academy City Central District, Central Library Branch No. 3, Book Collection Area B17

[The foresight of a wise man, tsk tsk, it’s also a hunch. There’s no reason that only one character’s talent can advance to the next level. Since ‘I’ can do it, there’s no reason why ‘I’ can’t do it~]

Mo Tan thought this while walking among the bookshelves with his hands behind his hands.

We all know that at this moment, he has never been the kind of person who cares about bets, winning or losing, or risks. However, we can also understand that he cares about these things equally, and he can take the lead at any time. You can always put aside those things that you may have been worried about just a second ago.

Under his current personality, he is a person who is passionate and enthusiastic about everything. Similarly, he is also a person who can be extremely indifferent even to himself.

So when he wanted to advance his [Premonition] talent like the character 'Hei Fan', he would even ignore the risk of losing and the situation he had carefully prepared before, and deliberately put himself in danger.

[Hey, it would be great if I were really Frank. In that case, as long as Diana encounters some fatal danger, maybe she can explode something in an emergency, instead of taking this dead tablet with her and gambling when it is about to go offline. Will it lead to talent promotion in a hurry? 】

While Mo Tan was thinking viciously in his heart, he turned his head and glanced at the petite girl not far away who was standing on tiptoes and looking up at a book of historical stories. An equally soft smile appeared on her soft face.

"Hello!"

Futaba, who noticed Mo Tan's gaze, curled his lips and cursed angrily: "Has anyone ever said that your look is really disgusting!"

Mo Tan shrugged innocently, and went to the reading area not far away to move a chair and put it next to Futaba as quietly as possible.

"what?"

Futaba glanced over again.

[Could it be just to see your panties? 】

Mo Tan sneered in his heart, and on the surface he touched the tip of his nose harmlessly and said with a smile: "The bookshelf here is a bit high. It might be easier for you to stand on a stool and read. Uh, don't worry about falling. I will help you." You hold on to the chair properly."

Futaba looked at Mo Tan for a long time with the eyes of a fool, and said suspiciously: "You don't want to peek at my underwear, do you? I wear pants under my robe."

Mo Tan's face froze, and then he blushed like a rattle and shook his head vigorously: "I definitely don't mean this!"

"Ah, I'm just teasing you, please don't react like that..."

Futaba twitched the corner of her mouth, then pushed Mo Tan away and moved it to the chair next to her that was used to rest her feet, and said helplessly: "Did anyone tell you that I am a mage?"

Mo Tan nodded.

"So, no one told you that I am a talented beautiful girl mage who is proficient in all aspects?"

Mo Tan continued to nod.

"So are you an idiot?"

Futaba snapped his fingers, summoned an [Arcane Eye] with light blue fluorescence from the air, controlled the thing to spin several times above his head, and then He tilted his head and glanced at the chair with disdain: "Do I need this?"

Mo Tan: "..."

"Okay, okay, move back, move back, it's in my way."

Futaba Todoroki waved his hands like a fly, then leaned on the bookshelf behind him and concentrated on controlling the extremely flexible [Arcane Eye], constantly shuttling between the rows of bookshelves.

"Sorry, because I haven't actually come into contact with many mages, and Diana rarely used any convenient magic when she was with me, so... uh..."

Mo Tan scratched his hair, then picked up the chair again, making a sound of "Hey, hey, hey," as he walked towards the reading area where he moved the chair.

"This person's lack of strength really matches Diana well..."

The moment Mo Tan turned around, he cast his [Arcane Eye] gaze over. Futaba, who was leaning on the bookshelf, smacked his lips in a low voice: "And I really think about Diana all the time."

Mo Tan, who listened to every word without missing a beat, turned to Futaba curiously: "Ah? What's wrong with Diana?"

"fine."

Futaba twitched the corner of his mouth, dispersed the [Arcane Eye] and said in a deep voice: "Hurry up and put the chair back, let's go."

"Walk?"

Mo Tan put the chair back in its place in a polite manner, walked back to Futaba in a daze, and asked puzzledly: "Where to go? Didn't I say I would look for it here..."

"The books here are too low-tech and have very few types. They are not as rich as the collection of books in Uncle Kenneth's Spiritual Advent Tower."

Futaba stretched out her little finger to pick out her ears, and said with a displeased look on her face: "I'm not happy, please change the place."

Mo Tan scratched his hair in confusion: "Where to change?"

"Go to the Inner Ring District. There is a place called the 'Comprehensive Library' there. I heard it is much better than the 'Central Library' in the Central District."

Futaba showed a rare pleasant smile in front of Frank Hughes, and said enthusiastically: "I think there should be a lot of good things in that place, so don't waste your time in this shabby place."

"I've heard about this...comprehensive library, but..."

"Just what?"

"I can't get in, the inner ring area."

"It's easy. Just change into Diana and come with me. The doorman will get to know Diana and I."

"Huh? How can I look like Diana?"

"Huh? You don't know how to do this?"

"Nope……"

"waste."

"..."
