Quadruple split

twenty minutes later

Game time PM22:47

Academy City, Outer Ring District, No. 9 Champs Elysees

Mo Tan slowly walked out of the bedroom and went straight to the bar he had specially set up when he last stopped in Academy City. He silently made himself a cup of something strong but with almost zero alcohol content, and drank it all in one gulp.

"gentlemen!"

Colton, who was sitting in front of the fireplace, suddenly stood up and looked at Mo Tan with a pale face: "Miss Liz..."

"She's fine. Although she has a little...ha, a big problem just like you, I've already comforted her and it's not a big problem."

Mo Tan raised his hand to interrupt Cole before he finished speaking, then took out a bottle of soda from his bag and threw it to Cole: "Drink something to calm down, sort out your thoughts by the way, and see if you can get rid of the misunderstanding." 'Come out, don't talk, don't disturb me."

Although the corners of his mouth were curved and his behavior could be called 'concern', both his voice and emotion were very cold, and those eyes that always seemed elusive were full of gloom.

Subconsciously catching the soda thrown at him, Cole Schren, who had never seen his husband look like this, nodded silently, quietly pulled out the cork, and followed the latter's order while sipping. Drinking the drink in his hand, he tried to find a sense of dissonance in the day he had just spent.

In the words of the husband, he seemed to have fallen into some kind of 'misunderstanding', and Lidette Bloodwing, who had been living with him during this period, also encountered the same problem.

But...what exactly is the problem?

The handsome but extremely pale face was illuminated by the firelight. The young man who had been given trust but had screwed up everything subconsciously held his forehead and fell into deep thought.

He is very smart, although he is often said by his husband that his rigidity of mind and overall outlook are far inferior to Xiao Ai's. There is no doubt that Cole Schulun is still a smart person for the time being.

Cole himself knew this, so if nothing else happened, he should be able to find the problem easily. After all, judging from Mr.'s attitude, it should be something obvious and easy to discover.

But the fact is that no matter how much you think about it, you can't find the clue.

There is no sense of dissonance at all.

The so-called 'misunderstanding' made Cole even more confused.

Problems arise and mistakes are actually not terrible.

At least it's not scary if the husband doesn't delve into it. After all, Cole has a very clear understanding of himself, and he never feels that he can face all situations calmly like his husband, and effortlessly steer things towards the development of his hopes. direction.

I cannot become a person like Mr.

I can't become a person like Xiao Ai.

But at this moment, something happened to me that even my husband found troublesome.

[No matter what, I must find a way to help my husband reduce his burden...]

Clenching his fists hard, Cole Schulun secretly made up his mind, and then began to review his experience of this day for countless times.

With little success.

Following his husband's orders, he got up early and started sorting out the information about 'Mo', working hard to play the role of a person he had never even met.

Coupled with the handling of interpersonal relationships, the practice of speaking style, the digestion of knowledge about other worlds and other related matters, Cole's life rhythm during this period can be said to be very fulfilling and compact.

Today is exam day.

Not too long after getting up, I had already completed 90% of my transformation, and received the [Hundred Styles] sent by my husband, and I made the initial preparations.

Miss Liz, who also received something, but the content was flowers and pocket money, was in a good mood and went out shopping soon.

Then there were all the rehearsals that didn’t need to be mentioned deliberately. Maybe it was because I was too focused and the time passed very quickly.

Although he was not completely prepared, and could never be completely prepared, Cole still had full confidence in himself, or in other words, he had full confidence in his husband who believed in him.

Since you let yourself do it, it means that you can complete the task.

Under this premise, as long as you do your best at what you can do, you will succeed!

Recognizing his efforts during this period, Cole waited for the 'test' to come.

You must try your best to complete the task.

He cheered himself up like this.

While waiting, Miss Liz came back at some unknown time. After a brief greeting, she returned to her bedroom. Judging from the merchandise piled on the table in the hall, she must have gained a lot.

Then, the gentleman came back.

That’s all for Cole Schren today.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with it.

How could there be anything wrong?

But... sir can't be wrong.

Therefore, I must have missed something or overlooked something.

【What exactly is it? 】

Cole Shuren knocked on his forehead unconsciously, his eyes filled with confusion.

On the other side, Mo Tan, who was leaning against the bar, looked increasingly gloomy.

Anxious——

This kind of emotion, which is almost impossible to appear in the character of 'Tan Mo', almost completely engulfed him at this moment.

The situation is out of control.

Things are getting serious.

I'm done with it.

Mo Tan took a breath, drank the cup in his hand, which tasted very close to 'water of life' but had the same alcohol content as Liangbaikai, and cursed in a low voice.

To be honest, even at this moment, his ability to accept things is almost boundless and his thinking is much broader than that of ordinary mental patients, he feels a little confused.

Until Mo Tan returned to No. 9, Rue des Champs, things seemed to be under control, or in other words, developing in a perfect and almost boring way.

However, Cole Shuren's ridiculous testimony directly destroyed this perfection and dealt a heavy blow to the unprepared Mo Tan.

This young man who has been trained by me for a long time and will play the role of 'Mo' today has never been to that dinner party...

He just stayed here, waiting for time to pass without realizing it, until Mo Tan ran here on a whim.

Other than that, nothing was done.

But the 'Mo' that Mo Tan saw when he was the 'Black Brahman' actually existed.

That person concealed his identity perfectly, chatted and laughed at the quite enjoyable dinner party not long ago, and helped Mo Tan achieve his goal.

It seems wonderful.

In terms of results, it's not bad.

But the problem is, that person is not Cole Shuren!

He knew Mo Tan's plan, he responded perfectly, he completed the task meticulously, and retired with success.

An icy chill rose up Mo Tan's spine and quickly spread throughout his body.

It's a gruesome farce.

A strong sense of crisis spread crazily, permeating Mo Tan's thoughts.

This is a crisis...

A crisis that could rank among the best in 'Mo Tan''s twenty-plus years of life...

It is true that at this moment, he is not very responsible even for himself. Whether his life or freedom, he can use it as a bargaining chip in the game without blinking an eye. But in any case, this kind of completely unable to control the situation The feeling, even for him now, is very bad!

He doesn't have to be a chess player, but he can't tolerate being a chess piece without knowing it.

Moreover, he is a chess piece who does not even know what he should do and what expectations are placed on him.

Endless malice flashed in his eyes, and in the next moment he was swallowed up by even more turbulent madness and madness.

We can't just let this matter go.

so……

Slowly closing his eyes, Mo Tan used terrifying willpower to suppress his uncontrollable emotions, and began to think logically in the next second.

There is no chance of winning in a meaningless struggle, and hysterical struggle will only put yourself in a disadvantageous situation.

It's not just Cole who needs to calm down and think. In fact, in Mo Tan's view, he is the one who needs to calm down the most.

The crazier you are, the more you need to calm down.

Because only this calmness can completely implement the madness!

Brutally extinguishing the inorganic fire of chaos in his eyes, Mo Tan, like a cold machine, took the unknown mist surrounding him into his thoughts and analyzed it without any emotion.

There is no seamless plan in this world, nor is there any flawless layout.

I can't do it if I fight while being a 'silent'.

When I was the 'Black Brahman', I couldn't do it standing still in front of the sand table.

Naturally, I, who was hatching a conspiracy when I was 'Tan Mo', couldn't do it.

In my impression, the last person who put all his chips on the gambling table, tried to win the battle together, and blindly trusted himself was named Futaba. He was a good opponent who was as good as him in terms of means, scheming, and strategy.

Then the four-eyed tablet, whose eyes were blinded by anger, who seemed calm but left no escape route for himself, almost lost everything. If the two variables of himself and Xiu hadn't appeared at the right time, Marshall would have killed his entire family. The family is probably still standing strong to this day, at the top of the Violet Empire's power pyramid.

But now Futaba is no longer like this, that's why she is in such trouble.

think--

think--

think--

There must be flaws, there must be omissions, there must be clues.

Even if the intelligence gap has been stretched to an unspeakable extent, there is still a chance for him.

If there is indeed a flaw in this impeccable layout, then I will never let it go.

but……

What if this was a perfect plan?

[Then, this perfection itself is the biggest flaw! 】

Mo Tan opened his eyes suddenly, and the corners of his mouth raised an uninhibited arc. He thought of Futaba again, and of the man who had clearly set everything up, but fell into a trap because the first card was unexpectedly redeemed. Totally passive clown.

Yes, an accident.

An accident that will not be taken into account.

For example...

Something that wouldn't have happened otherwise.

"it's me."

Mo Tan slowly stood up and laughed playfully: "I did not return to [Stars] after the end. Instead, I suddenly returned here on a whim. This was the beginning of this accident."

"gentlemen?"

Cole, who had been immersed in his thoughts just now, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly turned his head to look at Mo Tan, who had the calmness and indifference on his face.

"So, you should forget it."

Mo Tan glanced at Cole and grinned: "You should have forgotten, but you didn't. You still remembered and conveyed this violation to me in a timely manner."

Cole looked confused.

"To put it simply, the person who did something to you was supposed to 'reset' everything after the incident was over, but he failed to achieve this goal because I came here to praise you on a whim."

Mo Tan snapped his fingers and said leisurely: "Otherwise, there is no need for the other party to be so meticulous. Including the transmission of [various states], it is obvious that the person who played you is trying to play 'someone', He doesn't want me to know about this, so according to his original plan, I'm afraid he will come back here tonight or tomorrow morning to implant a false memory in you, making you feel, before we meet here... You did complete the mission today, and I want you to tell me that the 'Mo' is you, Cole Shuren."

Cole held his breath and nodded after a while: "Although I still don't realize what was done to me, you should be right, sir."

"There is no way to complete this in advance because the impostor among the impostors does not know exactly what will happen tonight, so he must turn back after the party is over to ensure that he has not personally experienced that meal. Don’t show your flaws in front of me.”

Mo Tan smiled, and then his voice suddenly turned cold: "This concealment cannot be meaningless. In other words, the reason why it takes so much trouble is because the other party knows that if I find out the clues, they will definitely There will be situations that are detrimental to him, or that will affect the original plan...let me think about it...no, actually don't even think about it."

He strode up to Cole, held down the latter's head fiercely, stared into the latter's eyes full of confusion and confusion, and the smile in his eyes became stronger: "I know, what happened to you What happened to me is actually not the first time in my understanding.”

Cole was immediately stunned: "Ah..."

"Ha, although it is indeed the first time for you."

Mo Tan added with a chuckle, and then said calmly: "But a certain guy once mentioned a similar situation to me, a story about a 'prisoner who quietly disappeared'."

"prisoner?"

"Yes, a noble prisoner, his name is Buffy Marshall."

"It's violet..."

"One of the former Grand Dukes. That man once completed a bizarre prison escape."

"That is……"

"He disappeared, disappeared under layers of surveillance, and even though all the jailers discovered this fact, no one felt anything was wrong. Although they were still loyal and knew very well that their mission was to guard Buffy Marshall."

"???"

"I'm thinking of an old friend I've never met~"
