Quadruple split

five minutes later

"Well, that's good!"

Mo Tan looked at the 'renewed' Saintess in front of him and clapped his hands happily: "It's so beautiful and warm!"

He lowered his head and glanced at the cloak he was wearing, which was quite comfortable. It was light gray in color and tightly wrapped everything below the collar. After a brief silence, Yuchen glanced at the person in front of him with a half-smile: "Except for your weird filter, it's really warm."

"Yeah, right~"

Mo Tan Xiaoji nodded like he was pecking at rice. Although he was a little regretful because he couldn't see the new outfit that his crush had just changed into, it was better than letting passers-by focus their attention unscrupulously on Yuchen's waist and waist while shopping. On the thigh, this price is still worth it.

In this city filled with young males, this level of worry is definitely within the normal range! That's right, even if they are just ordinary friends who are good friends, there is absolutely no problem with such a move that can save Yuchen a lot of trouble or even strike up a conversation! There is absolutely no selfishness involved!

Mo Tan has been convincing himself with the above-mentioned nonsense reasons since just now, trying to justify this absolutely unusual move.

"You're not afraid of my heat stroke..."

The girl made a face at Mo Tan, then turned around in a circle with a smile on her face, raised the corners of her mouth and whispered softly: "But it's okay, anyway, I've never been very used to cool clothes, so I wear less every time, big brother. They just like to use their hands and feet."

【Brother! 】

Mo Tan's eyes narrowed.

[Oh, by the way, it’s Cassena Youke, so it’s okay...]

Mo Tan calmed down again.

【etc! Even if she is a girl, it is not appropriate for her to always touch Yu Chen like this! ? 】

Mo Tan's eyes narrowed again.

[Well, according to the survey, the orientations of the girls should be relatively normal. Mika and Cassena don't have boyfriends entirely because of personality issues. Christina and Lucie... shouldn't be the kind of people who talk to each other casually. The hands-on type. 】

Mo Tan calmed down again.

"Hey~ your expression is so twisted!"

Yu Chen lightly poked Mo Tan's shoulder and asked suspiciously, "Are you thinking about something weird?"

"How come~"

Mo Tan coughed lightly, touched the tip of his nose and said with a smile: "I just haven't recovered from the surprise just now. Feiyali has a pretty good eye for choosing clothes."

Yu Chen raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Mo Tan with raised eyes: "Would anyone show the expression of wanting to kill someone when they are so surprised?"

Mo Tan: "..."

"Okay, I won't make trouble with you anymore."

The girl stuck out her tongue empathetically and did not continue the conversation. Instead, she smiled briskly and said, "So, do you want to go shopping together? Although we agreed before that we would go together, but I want Fiyali to go shopping together." I probably won’t mind having an extra person to help carry my bags.”

"Okay, okay~"

Mo Tan nodded vigorously, then shrugged with a wry smile and said, "I really want to answer that, but I'm going to buy something later, so I won't be with you. Have fun shopping."

Yuchen blinked curiously: "Can't we buy it together? Anyway, the two of us don't have any specific purpose, so it's okay to go with you first."

"Uh...well..."

Mo Tan's body froze, and he quickly turned his brain, which was gradually losing its sluggishness, and said hesitantly while thinking about his words: "Actually...how should I put it...it's not appropriate..."

Yuchen was slightly startled, and then he did not continue to ask any more questions. He just smiled softly and nodded: "Well, since it's not suitable, there's nothing you can do about it. You have to pay attention to your safety when you go shopping alone. Don't Then casually knock yourself out."

"Ah, right!"

Only then did Mo Tan react and asked quickly: "I was in the library before..."

"You were sent back by an old man during the gathering."

Yu Chen smiled and blinked: "He said that he was one of the administrators of the library. He said that because many people were using the magic circle at the same time, you were disturbed by unstable space fluctuations and ended up being teleported to the twenty-fifth floor. , and then accidentally opened a strange book that should have been in the forbidden book area, and was knocked unconscious by the content inside."

[It’s okay, it’s okay, old boy Tifilo is pretty good, and his lies are so obvious. 】

Mo Tan gave the late Pope a thumbs up from the bottom of his heart, and then said with a dry smile: "What I said before is true, but the reason why I was in coma was not because of what I read. Well, you know..."

"I understand, I understand~"

Yu Chen smiled sweetly, then suddenly his face became serious, and he said quietly: "By the way, although I think Mo Tan probably won't make any plans in that regard, love potions are contraband."

Mo Tan was confused at that time: "What?"

"Aren't you planning to go shopping secretly by yourself?"

Yuchen stuck out his tongue playfully, blinked and said, "I heard when I was chatting with the girls in the library that the potion that can make people blindly fall in love with themselves was very popular in Academy City some time ago. , and there were many terrible accidents. In the end, it was the law enforcement team that took action to suppress the incident. The love agent was also officially classified as a contraband. If you are caught carrying or using it, you will be expelled from school if the circumstances are serious! "

"Ah this..."

"But I heard that even so, there are still a lot of love potions circulating in underground channels. Although I think Mo Tan you are not interested in that kind of thing, and you probably can't afford it, but I still want to remind you."

"No, this is the first time I've heard of this!"

"Hmm, I guess you won't do that thing of mixing the love potion with your own hair in the drink for Yi Zou to drink."

Yuchen nodded briskly and smiled sweetly: "So I was joking."

"Actually, I went to help Yi Dong buy something."

Mo Tan, who finally made up a reason in his mind, directly sacrificed his gay friend A, and said in a low voice, "You also know that he is a necromancer, and he is not welcomed by anyone wherever he goes. Well, it’s not easy to get some casting materials and quest items, so you asked me to get some stuff in a place like Academy City where everything is sold. You, the Saint of Dawn, are definitely not suitable to go to that kind of place, let alone There is also Fiari."

[Oh, I don’t want to help others lie to Tiphilo, but I am full of lies here...]

Looking at Yu Chen's clear eyes, Mo Tan sighed silently in his heart, full of self-deprecation.

"Well, it's really hard, Ito-san."

Yuchen nodded, and just when he was about to say something else, he heard a knock on the door, and also came along with it was Feiyali's crisp laughter——

"Hey, Wangyu, how are you preparing? Is Hafan awake yet? Are you doing anything naughty or sexy?"

Yu Chen: "..."

Mo Tan: "..."

"No la!"

After a while, Yu Chen, who almost choked, responded with a blush, then glared at Mo Tan nonchalantly and pointed to the bed.

The latter understood immediately and obediently climbed into bed and began to pretend to be dead.

"Then I'm leaving~"

Yuchen, who was squatting beside the bed, rubbed Mo Tan's hair mischievously.

"Be careful on the road..."

"Hmm~"

"Also..."

"Hey, what?"

"Love potions and the like must be useless to players."

"This, maybe?"

"So I won't buy those things."

"Well……"

"Ahem, it's okay. Go quickly and don't keep that person waiting."

"Well, you don't need to buy it...probably."

"ah?"

"It's okay, I'm leaving~"

Then Mo Tan heard the sound of Yuchen opening the door.

Then he heard Fiyali exclaiming what the hell this cloak was...

Then Fiyali ruthlessly exposed the fact that Mo Tan was awake, and was ready to rush in and catch him to go shopping together...

Finally, Yuchen seemed to push her out, and then closed the door heavily.

…

five minutes later

Mo Tan, who had been in a daze until now because of the girl's words before leaving, sat up mechanically, then patted his cheek hard, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said a lot of words including but not limited to 'What is the child's name?', 'B Housing in the city's school district is so expensive', 'Everything in S city is expensive', 'Should I find an unscrupulous entrepreneur to help me', 'Is it too much to accept a down payment in advance as a share', 'Go "What kind of gifts should I bring when I see Dr. Bai Zhen?", "Should I consider getting a driver's license?", "Will the fake household registration made more than ten years ago be traced?" and other extremely crazy thoughts were driven out of my mind. Then he stood up staggeringly like a zombie, opened the door, left the house, turned right, and knocked on the door next door.

"who is it?"

After a while, a delicate and lovely half-dragon female knight with smooth lavender shawl hair appeared in front of Mo Tan, and after letting out a short cry, she happily grabbed Mo Tan's hand: "Ah! Senior, you're okay!"

"never mind."

Mo Tan nodded, then held his forehead and asked softly: "By the way, Yi Zhao, do you know that Feiyali is going shopping with Wang Yu?"

"Eh? You know, Her Royal Highness Fiyali invited me before."

Although she didn't know why her senior suddenly asked about this, Yi Zou still answered honestly: "But I am embarrassed to agree. After all, I didn't bring casual clothes with me this time. Wearing knight armor always makes the two highnesses unhappy. .”

Mo Tan frowned: "Do they mind if you wear knight armor?"

"Ah, that's not true."

Yi Zou shook her head and continued to answer obediently: "Her Highness Fiyali said that there are many students and teachers in Academy City who dress like this, so she told me not to worry about it, but I still feel that it doesn't fit..."

"There's nothing inappropriate. As a girl, you should go out for shopping occasionally. Don't always stay alone in your room praying."

Mo Tanyi interrupted Yi Zuo sternly and said forcefully: "Listen to me, you can chase them out and join them now. Just say that you have changed your mind and enjoy the shopping. Well, this is Pocket money.”

After a brief silence, Mo Tan took out half of his character's savings, a total of 160 gold coins, and put the money bag into Yi Zuo's hand.

"ah!"

Yi Zhao immediately waved his hands in a panic and shouted softly: "This can't be done! I..."

"Don't you always call me senior? Seniors should take care of their juniors, right? Okay, just take it and buy something you like later~"

Mo Tan used the posture of a senior to forcefully stop Yi Xuan's refusal, then coughed slightly, his eyes wandered and scratched his cheek: "Also, after all, Her Highness Feiyali and Wangyu have special status, you can do it too By the way, help guard against suspicious people."

Yi Zuo nodded subconsciously and asked: "Well, senior, how can he be considered a suspicious person?"

"For example, if you keep staring at Fiyali for more than ten minutes, it would be very suspicious."

"Uh-huh."

"Also..."

"What else?"

"Any male who keeps his eyes on Wangyu for more than three seconds."

"Pfft——"

"why are you laughing?"

"It's okay, okay, then I'll go shopping with your two highnesses~"

"Be good, go ahead."

"Thank you for your pocket money, senior! I will bring you a gift!"

"You're welcome~"

Academy City Central District, No. 11 Remus Avenue, weird and weird

"Sorry, I'm... here to get the bugs."

After changing out of the priest's robe that he usually wore, his whole body was covered in a black cloak. Even COS had Old Tom, who had his head covered with bandages, deliberately pinched his throat and spoke to Joe in a hoarse voice. Les said: "Friends... stored... things here."

He really had no choice. After all, unlike 'Mo' and 'Tan Mo' in the Innocence Realm, the character 'Hei Fan' looks exactly the same as 'Mo Tan', who is quite familiar to the Rice brothers outside the game. After revealing his identity when he was 'Tan Mo', if he is recognized by the two brothers as 'Hei Fan' today, there is really no way to explain this matter.

Fortunately, because there were a lot of people in the store, Qiao couldn't observe Mo Tan well. He just quickly took out a delicate metal box from his pocket and gave it to Mo Tan. After grinning, he continued to entertain other customers. .

Mo Tan didn't waste any words, he simply said thank you and immediately turned around and left.

Although based on previous experience, it is unlikely that I will be 'dropped' in a short period of time, time is still very tight now.

after all……

Although he knew very well that the only alchemist he knew well, Luna Lynch, was in the Alchemist Association in the Central District of Academy City, but for the existence of 'Ink Tan', it was difficult to find it with his own power in a short period of time. The target location is indeed a very, very, very difficult challenge!

And the fact was just as he expected. Despite the help of several kind-hearted passers-by, and the [Pathfinder] in his hand, which was an artifact that could translate the east, west, east, and west, when Mo Tan finally stood at the alchemist in the middle of Pierre Street, In front of the association, it was still getting late.

…

Game time PM21:07

Carrying the remains of the [Wang Insect], Mo Tan took a deep breath and entered the Academy City branch of the Alchemist Association, hoping that the friends temporarily staying there could bring him some surprises.
