Quadruple split

half an hour later

Academy City Inner Ring District, Obsidian Square Tower 7th Floor, Lounge No. 2

"Get out."

Futaba, who had already changed out of the blood-stained robe and whose wounds had been briefly treated, pushed up his glasses with his middle finger, impatiently shook his still purple right hand twice, and glared fiercely at the person in front of him. A middle-aged elf in a dark green robe glanced at him: "I don't need care and protection, so get out."

Although he didn't look very old, the elf elder who was actually over 600 years old looked embarrassed and said hesitantly: "But, Miss Futaba, you just suffered..."

"Yes, I was just attacked. I'm really lucky to be alive."

The girl folded her legs lazily, looked at the other person with an evil look and said, "In the inner ring area, right in front of your Academy City landmark [Comprehensive Library], I was surrounded by a group of unknown people for two whole days. In ten minutes, we are less than seven kilometers away from this obsidian square tower, where are you people?"

The elf elder's expression froze, and he lowered his head in disbelief: "This..."

"I just need to rest now, no explanation required, get out."

As a formal member of the Miracle City Exchange Group, Futaba, who encountered such a bad incident, is naturally qualified to be arrogant. In fact, her current attitude is considered good. At least compared to Futaba herself, she is very, very restrained.

Therefore, the middle-aged elf who was sent to deal with the situation and buy time for the senior leaders of the Presbyterian Church to investigate did not say anything more. He just turned his attention to [Tiao Lv Xian] who was standing not far away at this moment, staring out of the window with his hands behind his hands. Author] Mel Inz.

This white-haired man, who looks to be in his early twenties but is actually less than forty years old, is a member of the Miracle City Council of Truth and the leader of the exchange group that went to Academy City this time.

"Just do what she says first."

[The Tuning Sage], who had white shoulder-length hair, a gentle and elegant temperament, and light cyan eyes, smiled, turned to the elf elder, nodded slightly, and said lightly: "As long as I am here, this child will know how to do it." It’s very safe. Even if something happens, the subsequent responsibility will not be yours.”

As soon as the sage spoke, the elf elder who had been sitting on wax since just now felt like he was being pardoned. He breathed a long sigh of relief and bowed to Mel: "Okay, I'll leave first. What's the matter? They can be summoned at any time if necessary.”

"Um."

Mel smiled, and then watched the elder and his two guards and followers walking towards the door, and raised his eyebrows at the moment they were about to push the door open and leave: "Slow down."

"Lord Mel?"

The elf elder looked back with some confusion at the sage whose movements and every word were elegant, and asked respectfully: "Do you have any other instructions?"

"No instructions, just to remind you that what I just said was 'do as she says'."

Mel turned his head and glanced at Futaba, with a smile as warm as the spring breeze on his face, and said lightly: "If I remember correctly, what little Futaba just said should be 'get out'?"

The face of the elf elder suddenly changed, and his expression was full of astonishment: "You..."

"I fully understand your unwillingness to disgrace the Presbyterian Church, so it doesn't matter."

Mel raised his hand to adjust the stand-up collar of his long dark blue robe, and then whistled as if on a whim.

At the same time as the whistle sounded, the door to the lounge suddenly opened as if it had been hit by some huge force. The next moment, both the elf elder and the guards around him fell to the ground in a funny posture. , and was driven out of the lounge by some force that was invisible to the naked eye.

They "rolled" out in the true sense. According to the feedback from the mage eye released by Futaba, they rolled at least half of the corridor before they awkwardly stopped the car with their chin in an OTZ posture.

"Well, that should be enough, right?"

Mel winked at Futaba with a smile, then slowly stepped forward to close the door to the lounge again, and gracefully pulled on his gloves.

"I didn't ask you to do this, right?"

Futaba, who had never thought about telling the elder to 'get out', twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at Mel with a smile on his face with empty eyes: "If he gets out, will the elders remember me?"

Mel shrugged, and the original graceful and elegant temperament suddenly disappeared like an illusion, and was replaced by a look of cynical joy. He spread his hands and said: "I don't want to either, who is Xiao Shuangye? You are our Miracle City." He is a formal member of the delegation, so even if you don’t mean it, I don’t mean it either, but we still have to maintain the face of Miracle City to some extent.”

"That's right, sister Futaba."

Evie Lehman, who had been sitting in the corner of the lounge since just now, covered her mouth and chuckled, raised her boots and smiled: "But you don't have to worry, even if those people hold grudges, they won't remember small people like us. What's more, they were already in the wrong, and for twenty minutes, they were in the inner ring area of ​​Academy City, right in front of their comprehensive library, so it was very polite to just ask those three people to get out."

Mel Sage, who had a completely different style of painting than before, smacked his lips, landed on the sofa opposite Futaba, and said cheerfully: "I heard that you were seriously injured, and that boy Kenneth was very angry. , Haha, if Xiao Shuangye really died there today, I think he might rush over directly to the Presbyterian Council to ask for an explanation, ten lives at a time~"

"Hehe...hehe..."

Futaba laughed dryly, then turned to Evie without lowering her voice and asked, "What's going on with this guy? Why did he look like a dog just now, and now he's turned into a dog?"

Evie stuck out her tongue playfully and said leisurely: "Sage Mel is more informal. In fact, the reason why he took over as [Sage of Tuning] is just because... uh..."

"For what?"

Futaba asked lazily and raised his eyebrows: "Because the Council of Truth lacks someone to make fun of?"

"Because the previous generation [Tuning Sage], my father, blew himself up while doing experiments."

Mel rolled his eyes and rolled around on the sofa with an impatient expression. As he rolled, he said feebly: "Then, the seat of [Tuning Sage] is still fixed in the Parliament of Truth. It is the same as Kenneth." The [Sage of the Fog Moon] that I earned through my own efforts is different. It is hereditary in our family, so I can only sit in this unlucky position. Now I have to go out and show my face under the name of 'tuning'. We keep a straight face and focus on our image, so we can only relax when we are alone. It’s so annoying~ It’s so annoying~ It’s so annoying~~~~~”

At the end of the song, this person even sang in a long note, and he sang quite beautifully. He really lived up to the title of "Sage of Tuning".

"No, haven't you noticed..."

Seeing that the other party was so virtuous, Futaba didn't bother to use honorifics. He directly raised his hand and pointed at Frank Hughes, who although he smiled and said nothing the whole time, was actually sitting next to him: "We have another person here. An outsider?"

Mel blinked, and then shook his head cheerfully: "Mr. Frank is not an outsider, not to mention the fact that he risked his life to save you today, but I know that Master Diana and him are having a heated fight. , although Kenneth has some objections to him, hasn’t the relationship between brother-in-law and brother-in-law been like this since ancient times? As long as you survive it and don’t die, then you will be a family from now on, the family of [Sage of the Mist Moon], then Aren’t they our own people from the City of Miracles~”

"I would like to lend you the good words of the sage."

Frank smiled respectfully at Mel and accepted the blessing that the other party just said was not a blessing.

"snort."

Futaba crossed her arms and pouted, then pointed at the door with her little hand: "Everyone, get out."

Mel, who was having sex with the sofa, was stunned for a moment and said in astonishment: "Get out?"

"Yeah, get out."

Futaba nodded vigorously, unbuttoned his collar and pointed at the bandage on his collarbone, then raised his left arm fixed by the earth element and shook it: "I am a wounded person now. The wounded need to have a good rest. Get out."

Mel blinked twice, then turned to look at Evie with an aggrieved expression: "She attacked me!"

"Well……"

Evie, who also couldn't stand Mel's temper, laughed helplessly, then lifted up her skirt and stood up, spreading her hands and saying: "Then let's go. Anyway, you are here, so don't worry even if someone comes to attack me again, I'm here I will also help with the warning."

After saying that, she took off her blindfold directly, revealing the [Magic Eye of Insight] behind her, and smiled seductively at Futaba, who saw her magic eye for the first time.

"Okay, okay, I'm leaving. Isn't it okay if I leave..."

Mel stood up with puffed cheeks, sighed with a sad face, then straightened his back, quickly switched to his previous elegant, noble, serious and intellectual style, and walked slowly towards the door with a calm fake smile on his face. go.

Frank also stood up and walked towards Evie who was waiting for him at the door. He turned to Futaba and said, "Then let's go to the lounge next door and wait for Diana to come back. Do you need me to bring dinner in for you?" ?”

"Need not."

Futaba shook her head and said calmly: "You stay."

Frank was immediately stunned and said in astonishment: "Huh?"

Sage Mel immediately quit and said angrily: "Why can't he keep me and Evie?"

"Because he is also a wounded person."

Futaba glanced at Mel expressionlessly, and waved his hand impatiently: "Go ahead, remember to close the door from the outside."

Mel: "Oh..."

Then he muttered and left with Evie, and he even closed the door very obediently.

…

Ever since, Futaba and Frank were the only two people left in the lounge.

The atmosphere was a little subtle, but not awkward. After all, they had acted together a lot during this period, and when they were reading in the library, the two of them were basically alone, but at that time they were reading separately. Everyone, they didn't communicate much with each other. Every time Frank broke the silence, he basically told Futaba to go back, and he would probably get scolded.

But this time, it was the girl who took the initiative to speak.

"Come and take a look at the night view."

After saying these words, Futaba walked slowly to the floor-to-ceiling windows of the lounge, overlooking the brightly lit, lively and prosperous city below in ecstasy, with a rare trance in his eyes.

Frank, as usual, walked to Futaba's side calmly, but did not look at the night view outside the window, but lowered his eyes to look at the girl beside him: "Those people before..."

"Is your injury okay?"

Futaba suddenly interrupted Frank and asked lightly.

"It's just a skin injury. Didn't I say it before? Diana may have left some arrangement on me that can help her useless boyfriend cope with difficulties."

Frank smiled proudly and raised his hand to touch the tip of his nose: "Although I was not 100% sure at the time, it turns out that I still understand her quite well."

"Yes, you know her quite well."

Futaba nodded slightly, then narrowed his eyes and said softly: "But you don't know me well enough."

Frank scratched his cheek in confusion and looked at Futaba curiously: "For example?"

"For example, even if you don't rush out to block that blow, I won't die."

Futaba took a deep breath, fiddled with the stupid hair on the top of her head, and said in a very unhappy tone: "I was prepared, although the situation at that time was indeed very dangerous, and the threat of that epic was also very great, But I still have a trump card that is useless. To put it simply...if I go according to my plan, not only will I not die, but I will also be able to imprison that person in a short period of time. Although it is only two minutes at most, it may be enough. ”

Frank nodded first, indicating that he indeed understood Futaba's words, and then asked doubtfully: "Why do you say it is enough?"

"Because that person's strength should be watered down. In my plan, just delaying it for a little longer should be enough for him to reveal his true colors. Of course, I'm not completely sure, but at least I won't die."

Futaba looked steadily at the man with a stern expression in front of him, and said angrily: "The result is that when everything went according to plan and that man was about to launch the final blow to me, you bastard actually ran out Make trouble and mess up my plan!"

Frank: "This..."

"What's even more damning is that I actually want to thank you."

Futaba angrily stood up on tiptoe and hammered Frank's shoulder, saying angrily: "Because you did save me!"

Frank looked away awkwardly, his smile looking a little forced: "Actually, you don't need to say thank you, I just..."

"You just have nothing to do with me."

Futaba impatiently hit Frank a second time, curled her lips and said, "Let's change the topic..."

"What?"

"You win."

"ah?"

"I said, I gave up, Tan Mo, BLACK, you won, do you understand?"
