Chapter 1091 'Official Beginning'
For a time, aside from the waiter who was completely frozen on the spot, even the waiter was still well-informed and was given the "deep city" by Mo Tan. Evie Lehman also showed a look of confusion at this comment, and this confusion gradually turned into confusion and shock in the next few seconds, and finally settled on a beautiful and complicated expression.
Just as Mo Tan guessed before, although she always has a cheerful, clingy, silly and happy style when they get along with each other, Evie Lehman is by no means a simple person. In fact, the fact that the girl can have a place in the City of Miracles at this age, and even participate in this exchange meeting as a member of the City of Miracles delegation, is enough to prove a lot.
This is a woman who is difficult to predict with common sense. If you are not careful at all, you will most likely be led off the rhythm by her, and then fall into a series of messy troubles or simply die happily. In short It's a very troublesome and tricky thing.
From another perspective, although the woman Evie Lehman has a certain use value, it is a bit difficult to want to have an equal dialogue with her as the character of 'Frank Hughes'. Disaster.
The above are the main conclusions that Mo Tan came to after briefly understanding and testing the girl beside him several times.
Since he has been completely targeted by this woman, and has also seen through the secrets of [Hundred Conditions], any tough or extreme measures are tantamount to seeking death, and he will not live long if he is naive.
But when he couldn't use force, he seemed to be well-behaved and would only appear near him when Diana and Futaba left. Moreover, he gave out all kinds of benefits from the beginning, without doing anything. Mo Tan was really afraid of Evie who destroyed the suspicion of teasing others.
Excellent! Very! Very scared!
In Mo Tan's view, if he really gradually adapts to this daily life of being thrown into the arms of others from time to time, then it won't be long before Frank Hughes will be forever lost in an unfortunate coincidence. Losing Diana, and after the latter was disheartened, she was bombarded to death by some sharp-edged machine, or she was simply killed by Evie Lehman, the instigator, somewhere.
And even though he was very confident in his mentality and felt that even if Evie broke the shackles of the system and danced a striptease in front of him, she would be calm and never have any worldly desires, Mo Tan still didn't feel that she could maintain it like this. What a good solution to the current situation.
It's just chronic death...
This fragile harmony now, this false balance now, is entirely based on Evie Lehman's interest in Frank Hughes. On this basis, she was curious about why Frank was able to win Diana's favor, she was curious about the other face under Frank's mask, she was curious about the relationship between Frank and the Harlequin card, and she was curious about what Frank, a guy of unknown origin, wanted. To get something.
She was curious, selfish and greedy, so she did not go to Diana to report immediately after discovering something was wrong with this person, nor did she exchange information with her theoretical 'teammate' Futaba, but Choosing to keep Mo Tan a secret, he intervened in Frank Hughes' life in a forceful manner.
Evie Lehman thinks Frank is an interesting person, so she is trying to get to know him.
And when one day, this girl who can maintain her passion for God knows how long loses interest in Frank, then she only needs to wave her little hand gently, which is enough to send Frank from any place including but not limited to heaven to hell.
Since she saw through Frank's disguise through the [True Seeing Eye], the above conclusion can be regarded as an established fact.
I feel that Evie Lehman really fell in love with me at first sight, and I longed for the sweet love between myself and Diana, so I wanted to have a rain and dew on both sides. Cordoba could do this. Mo Tan, who knows how to believe it, but is quite confident in his own personal charm, doesn't accept this trick.
It's better to say that I flirted with him personally, but if I want to throw myself into my arms directly... maybe the young version of 'Saint Luke Tiffero' I saw before can be that handsome, but Let's forget about the face of 'Frank' or 'Tan Mo', which is not ugly but not handsome either.
It might be possible if Ji Xiaoge is asked to dress up as a man and start a show like "Gu Qingren City" and "Gu Qingren Country" again, but he is just a gifted person and has nothing to do with him. .
All in all, as I said just now, when Frank's disguise is seen through, he is already destined to be killed. As for whether he will be killed early or late, it depends on when Evie Lehman's curiosity can be satisfied, or even though When you are not satisfied but still lose interest.
This was a situation Frank Hughes couldn't handle.
You can only passively wait for death or escape. Otherwise, you can't even struggle.
But...
[Although Frank Hughes can't handle it, if he doesn't act like Frank, the problem can be solved smoothly and smoothly. 】
Folding her legs, Mo Tan's smiling gaze 'accidentally' crossed Ivie's face, and she unexpectedly saw what she expected.
The depths of that beautiful, natural left eye are burning with uncontrollable joy and interest.
That’s right, as long as Evie Lehman continues to be interested in him, both Frank Hughes and Zelda Link will be inseparable in a short time. It is a place of defeat, and the 'short time' here can definitely last until the end of this exchange meeting.
Either he and Futaba end up together and the bet is over; or they both go their separate ways. Anyway, the possibility of Evie threatening him will be reduced to a freezing point.
In fact, if he had not created the character of "Super Dedicated and Warm Man", Mo Tan might have really reached out to Evie after breaking the shackles of his identity and tried to control this woman in his hands. inside.
Of course, this possibility is not high.
But no matter what, after Mo Tan glanced at Ivie's beautiful eyes, he knew that the task of turning the threat and quagmire represented by this woman into cover and resistance had been completed.
Because whether it is the name I mentioned just now or the business I want to discuss, they are all important enough~
"Fiyali...Fiyali Grae Mu..."
Evie did not disappoint Mo Tan , this well-informed lady almost immediately dug up all the known information about that name from the bottom of her heart after a trance, then she held Mo Tan's hand tightly and asked in a low voice: "Dear, you are right. It won’t be the one from the Wealth Sect..."
"Of course, I am talking about the saint of the Wealth Sect who is not showy on the surface, but is actually very capable and skillful, Her Royal Highness Fairy Graham."
Mo Tan gave with a smile. He answered in the affirmative, then turned to look at the stiff figure, The messenger, who was standing there with neither advance nor retreat, blinked and said: "That's the owner of this [Black Mary]. What I said is right, man~"
Looking a little at a loss.' The guy lowered his head in embarrassment and said dryly: "Well, this Sir, your words..."
"Honesty is one of the most valuable qualities of a businessman, so don't say you don't understand what I mean."
Mo Tan. He raised his index finger and traced it across his lips, the curvature of the corners of his mouth was subtle. And friendly: "Believe me, His Highness Graham will not blame you for such a trivial matter. In fact, you only need to truthfully report everything you see, and then leave it all to that smart lady, No responsibility required.”
"Haha~"
Evie also calmed down again at this moment. She took out a small fan from somewhere and spread it out in front of her pretty face with a 'swish' sound. She lightly covered her cherry lips and said to the waiter. Smiling slightly, he said, "I'll just trouble you, brother."
As expected, the waiter, whose forehead was already covered with sweat, was sitting on the wax table at that time, and couldn't say anything after opening his mouth for a long time. Come in a complete sentence.
It wasn't until half a minute later that an old orc man with some staggering steps slowly walked out of the kitchen with his hands behind his back. He stood next to the waiter and glanced at Mo Tan lightly, with a flash in his turbid and yellow eyes. After a warning: "Young man, it's better not to be too aggressive. If you have any questions, old man, I can sit down with you and slow down..."
"Sorry, I'm talking to him."
< br>
Mo Tan pressed down on Evie's hand and did not let her go down the steps that the old orc man specially handed over. Moreover, he did not even look at the latter. He just raised his chin towards the waiter who subconsciously shrank back. He said leisurely: "If other idlers want to chat, please wait a moment."
"You!"
The old orc, who was dressed in brocade and had an extraordinary temperament, was stunned for a moment. Then he glared, and was about to say a few harsh words, but in the end, he was held in front of him by an arm that didn't look too strong. "Step back, Esso."
The young waiter, who had a stiff face and was covered with sweat, suddenly changed his temperament, and looked at Mo Tan again with a brisk smile. I followed a completely different etiquette than when I was a 'bartender'.
"Yes, Deacon."
The orc known as Esso leaned over and saluted the bartender without hesitation, and then withdrew respectfully.
Mo Tan smiled and said nothing, and raised a glass to the young man who suddenly had the aura of a superior.
Evie Lehman's eyes, which were already extremely excited, became even brighter.
"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Otto Phantomhive. I am the person in charge of the [Shop Zero] branch in Academy City. Although I am not a believer in the Wealth Sect and I have no skills. Although he is powerful, he can still be regarded as one of His Royal Highness Fiyali’s staunchest followers.”
The young man who was called 'Deacon' by the old orc and called himself Otto Phantomhive smiled cleanly and looked at Mo Tan calmly with his dark blue eyes: "If you can, dear Mr. Zelda, could you please let me first understand the business you want to discuss with His Highness? I can guarantee that regardless of my personal opinion, everything that happened here today will be truthfully presented to His Highness in the near future. ”
Ink Tan raised his eyebrows slightly and chuckled: "Oh? What about the price of the two bottles of wine just now? Isn't the total price of nearly two million just a joke?"
"Well... …Not really.”
< br>Otto smiled and said slowly: "But with my authority, I can still make the really outrageous pricing a joke."
Mo Tan laughed dumbly; "Disrespect, disrespect."< br>
Otto scratched his head shyly: "Where is it?"
As soon as the words were finished, the two immediately laughed like old friends for many years, and Evie Lehman, who also quickly entered the state, also held Mo Tan's arm. The arm smiled sweetly.
A few seconds later, Mo Tan, who was the first to stop laughing, clapped his hands gently: "So, since everything that needs to be said has been said, let's officially start?"
"Okay, Mr. Zelda."
Otto nodded slightly, walked back to the counter and sat down, as if he was all ears.
Then, there was silence.
The long silence lasted for three minutes.
Finally, after realizing that the customer in front of him really didn't seem to want to say anything more, Otto tilted his head in confusion and tentatively asked Mo Tan: "Mr. Zelda? "
"Yes."
Mo Tan, who was playing with the wine glass, responded casually, very concisely.
"Didn't you just say that you wanted to officially start?"
Otto's tone was obviously confused, and the implication was obvious, that is, 'You can tell me what kind of business it is. '
"Yes, you still have twenty-seven minutes."
Mo doesn't even need to look at the system panel. He can accurately judge how much time has passed based on his own pulse. Tan Feng Danyun smiled softly: "Didn't I say it before, thirty minutes Within the clock, I want to see Her Royal Highness Fairy Graham, but because of the previous episode, I deliberately reset the time for you, and now...well, there are only twenty-six minutes left."
Otto was shocked at that time: "But you..."
"I've made it very clear, man."
Mo Tan shook his head and said leisurely: "You don't need to take any responsibility, just convey my words to Her Highness Fiyali truthfully, I believe that as the person in charge of this city, you have the ability to contact her directly."
"But..."
"If you are not worried, then in order to ensure that we can. If the cooperation is successfully completed, I can provide you with a clue."
"A... clue?"
"That's right, you can mention one more thing to His Highness Fiyali, that is, 'The business Mr. Zelda wants to discuss is related to a certain product that suddenly became popular in the Free City recently.' Your Highness should already know it. ”
“That’s it”
"Well, that's all."
"But His Highness is now a member of the United Holy Church delegation, and things are really busy, just in case..."
"In case It doesn’t matter if you can’t pull away.”
Mo Tan showed a reassuring smile, and after Otto had just inexplicably calmed down, he followed up with: "I still have many alternative partners. Academy City is so busy now. If Fiyali If Your Highness really doesn’t have time, I will go out and turn left and walk for five minutes to the temporary residence of the Steam Consortium executive.”
Otto: “…”
Evie pulled lightly. Pulling Mo Tan's sleeves, he whispered in the latter's ear: "I remember turning right."
"It's just a harmless joke."
Mo Tan shrugged, and then Implicitly and politely, he showed Otto a refreshing and bright smile...
"Then, you have twenty-four minutes, Mr. Otto."
