The chat lasted for a few minutes, and before leaving, I remembered to ask Edogawa to inform his partner, Mr. Rabithachi, to revoke the commission - Reimu incarnation, as the biggest threat, was an elusive object to Rabbit's Eighth Army Cao, so his surveillance was meaningless, and the members of Kobayashi's organization, who were a more realistic threat, were unlikely to endanger the Daigo Dojo again, so Edogawa thought about it for a few seconds and agreed to revoke it, not to mention that Masako-san, who was the beneficiary, had already become his employee, Protecting employees and monitoring and protecting the Daigo Dojo are mostly overlapping jobs.

Leaving my new employees and boss behind for the rest of the day, I decided to spend the rest of the day playing with Fran-chan - I didn't think it would be fun to play with a young girl, but maybe it would be fun to have more young girls. Putting aside my thoughts, my purpose in finding Fran-chan wasn't all about playing.

"Miss Fran is so relieved," Uncle Edogawa glanced at me before leaving, "but I will sincerely pass on my experience of survival in the human world to Miss Masako, her part-time job is definitely worth it, Miss Fran, or Miss Alice?" Forget it, it's not my business, I'm just thinking that you're a forum friend, Miss Fran. ”

Then, with Masako-san's anxious but self-determined resentful eyes, I said goodbye to the mature working women outside, and I set out on the way to Miss Maruko's apartment.

Although it was a day off, I called her first to prevent the editor from working overtime or going out to party, and I was not surprised to learn that Miss Maruko Aogasaki, who had a rare day off, had been in bed not long ago, and it was nearly 11 o'clock in the morning when she called, which showed how important a day off is to outsiders who work hard, but then again, the owner of the Daigo Dojo and the mother of the two sisters is much harder than I thought outsiders would be, and this leads me to not see my mother outside of the middle of the night. They didn't seem to have seen each other officially in the middle of the night.

"Have you been to the farewell ceremony of the chief inspector's daughter in the morning?" When I entered the door, I saw the editor who had just gotten out of bed with her eyes rubbed and dressed in pajamas, and the background was the picture of a muscular man fighting a giant enemy on the screen with a controller.

"It's tomorrow."

"Oh yes! It's Saturday, hahaha I hadn't gotten up when I answered the phone just now. ”

"You can tell you haven't quite gotten up yet."

I opened my mouth and yawned, and the host went into the bathroom to take care of my personal hygiene, while I went to the floor next to Fran-chan and sat down, "By the way, Fran-chan, are you making that fourfold existence now?" ”

"Huh?"

"Don't pretend to be cute, I'm serious about asking for advice!"

"But I don't know."

"Try it."

"Hmm-okay!"

After thinking about it for a second, Fran's little friend turned into four without warning, and shrank back in fright, the owner who poked her head out to ask for advice on lunch.

"Ahem, don't worry, don't worry, it's just a little spell." I say.

"Yes, is that so? Fran-chan really knows strange spells. ”

"Fran's spell is super powerful!" The one who seemed to be closest to the original Fran-chan raised his hand and shouted.

"Hey, Miss Maruko, let's just think it's an illusion." I said to the owner after giving a perfunctory lecture to the little girl.

"Ah, yes, is that, okay......" She shrank back into the bathroom with her face on her towel.

I looked at the four flan sauces with their own subtle expressions for a moment, and then asked, "Which of you is the original flan sauce?" ”

Holding the handle in his hand, the most suspicious of his true face, but the most stupid one with the most stupid facial expression: "I am!" ”

The first left-hand one, as if containing anger that can erupt at any moment: "I am!" ”

The first one on the right, who seems to be going to fight for the gamepad from the first one, is two beats slower than the first two: "Nonsense is me!" ”

The third, on the right-hand side, had a face full of disdain to discuss this stupid question: "Three big fools." ”

...... "I did ask a stupid question, but where is the stupidity?"

The three little girls endlessly argue with cute tones and cute movements about who is the "real" Fran-chan, and then develop to argue about who is qualified to control the gamepad and other derivative issues, while the fourth little girl with a spark of thought, wisdom and contempt for the first three approaches me: "Alice-chan, you want to know the whereabouts of your sister-sama." ”

Her tone wasn't questioning, "Huh? ”

"Isn't the purpose of you summoning the four Fran-chans out to inquire about the whereabouts of your sister, judging from the clues revealed in the news, and Alice-chan's relaxed appearance, your external troubles should have been solved, right, well, even if it is not solved, at least the troubles will be gone. It's hard to come to the interesting outside world, and you definitely don't want to go home quickly, and you still have a big trouble with your sister that hasn't been solved, so Alice-chan should focus on her sister's side. ”

"......" No. 4 Fran-chan said so well, "So Fran-chan actually has clues about her sister-sama?" Ah no、I was almost forcibly reasoned into by Fran-chan.,I actually just want to take a closer look at the fourfold existence of Fran-chan.,The wonder of the incarnation can only make people feel more wonderful no matter how you study it.。 ”

"Huh? There is nothing wonderful about the incarnation, as long as Alice-chan has experienced it personally," No. 4 Franchan said seriously, "It's like playing four forums, each forum establishes an account, and each account sets and maintains a role setting, so that others can recognize, identify and then solidify the impression of your account, that is an avatar, four forums and four different accounts are four avatars, anyone can experience the wonder of avatars." ”

"Yes, is that so...... Anyway, Fran-chan knows a lot, "No. 4 Fran-chan shocked me from the inside out for a moment, "It sounds so reasonable." ”

"Humph!"

"But it's just a metaphor.,I'm still the same me behind the account.,There's an essential difference from the incarnation.,Just like I make a lot of Alice puppets controlled by me.,Playing a puppet doesn't mean that this puppet is me.,The incarnation is really in the world.,It's not just the illusory you who only have one account in other people's cognition."

"Well—that's it, anyway!"

Seeing that Fran-chan couldn't seem to explain anything more, I turned to say, "Since you brought it up, I'll reluctantly ask for clues about Remilia." ”

Four-chan glared at me, "My sister said she was going to the birthplace of an ancient civilization to find a very powerful god. ”

"Oh, and then?"

"Nope!"

Can finding a very powerful god solve Fran-chan's problem? I thought it was a difficult question to answer, so I gave up thinking about it.

At this time, I don't know if the spell card time is running out or Fran-chan is tired of scrambling, the three Flan-chan "bars" disappear at once, and Flan-chan can play the game smoothly again.
