For students who don't know what's going on, before reading this chapter, please go to the work related to "Lelouch Crossing the Way of Collapse" and look for "New Theatrical Version II".

————————————————————————————————————

Lelouch's gaze fused on Ilan's face for a moment, and he turned to look at Nina.

"How far do you want me to go?" Probably thinking that Nina was playing tricks, he said helplessly.

"I didn't ask you to do anything." Nina didn't appreciate it.

"Did you do the thing that disappeared with Ilan just to worry me?"

"Do you think it's just 'pretending'? I really trust this kid. ”

The girl smiled maliciously, and Lelouch tried to suppress his anger.

Just when these two young couples, whose relationship seemed to be very complicated, were engaged in an ambiguous war of hurting and being hurt, Ilan on the side was busy fiddling with his mobile phone with his head down.

There is no need to ask the question of whether the other party is Lelouch or not.

The moment President Millet called him, he understood———— this wasn't a step back in time. The closest possibility is a parallel crossing. Because at least in his original timeline, let alone meeting Lelouch at this time, he didn't even reach the territory of Area 11.

He couldn't have known himself.

Now it's not about "Lelouch, are you my Lelouch?" "This poetic question, what we have to do now is... Confirm his abilities.

"Brother Huang, do you remember our math class last semester?" Determined the next route, Ilan asked a straight question. ”

"What?" Lelouch frowned in confusion.

"What is five hundred?"

Lelouch obviously didn't expect this kind of nonsensical question, but he still answered subconsciously. "Plus or minus 22.36 · Zero ······ Six? That's the third week of eighth grade, right? ”

From the beginning of thinking to the calculation of four decimal places, 5 and a half seconds.

It's exactly the same time as my mental arithmetic just now.

Although Lelouch and Ilan are not equal in intelligence, their specialties are very different. This question was chosen because mathematics is the area where the two have the closest single skill.

Well.

Regardless of which version of Lelouch this is, at least the IQ has not been nerfed?

The subject of the question just now was "Brother Huang", and he did not doubt it. In other words, in this time and space, their identity is still the prince.

Mathematics class from the last semester. Lelouch also accepted this temporal phrase normally.

There is also the clue of "eighth grade" in his answer... In other words, in this timeline, you may have reached Area 11 much earlier than before.

Is it possible to assume that the timing of other events has also changed?

Well, there is one more thing to confirm.

Really, the most important thing now is to find a way back······

"Almost, but not him." Ilan shrugged and asked for the opinion of the girl next to her.

"Well, 'almost'..."

Nina had a grumpy look in her eyes.

Not him······

This... Counterfeit!

"What are you talking about?" Lelouch couldn't figure out the situation here at all, and his face was at a loss.

"Brother Huang, please avoid it." Ilan smiled, pretending to wink mysteriously. "We're going to discuss the punishment you gave Miss Nina a pigeon last night."

Lip sync to show rest assured, I'll take care of her. Summoned the waiter, ordered a Coke for Lelouch at the small table outside the door, and kicked him out.

The moment Lelouch turned around, Ilan's right hand stretched out like lightning, and a mobile phone slid silently down his fingers into Lelouxiu's pocket.

It was when he pulled out the chair for the other party, and he was fiddling openly under the other party's nose until now.

From Nina's point of view, this action was clearly seen, and the girl was stunned at first, but then understood.

"It's fast." Nina smiled and smacked.

"It has nothing to do with fast hands, the blind spot of human vision is very large. Gentleness is more important than speed. Miss Nina, do you want to exchange information? ”

"What did you find?"

This guy must have found something valuable in his phone.

"Swap." Elan persevered.

"Why do you think I'm going to trade fairly with you?" The girl's smile was even brighter. "No, before that, why do you think you have the conditions to reject me?"

Because you're not Mao.

Your ability is not to read minds, and you cannot peer into my mind.

You're crazy, but you're not stupid.

Whether you want to hurt or coquettish Lelouch in your world, "going back" is a must. You need my brain for that.

But...

"Ah~ah~"

Ilan shrugged self-deprecatingly.

With her ability, she can still cut off her limbs or something...

It's really... It's so unfair.

"Okay... Where to start? First of all, you should have noticed that although he is not the original Lelouch, he still shares roughly the same personal relationship with us. ······"

It took ten minutes to tell Nina what she had just observed, and Ilan finally mentioned the message on the phone.

“··· It is divided into two parts, the address book, and the address log. I know most of the names in the address book, and they are all classmates in school, which means that he and our social relations should not have changed drastically. As for whether or not he is now in a relationship with the Resistance, I don't think he would be foolish enough to keep this evidence in the correspondence logs. But... One name worth noting———— Eins· Quinn), which is a German name, says... Miss Nina is of Germanic descent, right? ”

Ilan gave the other party some food for thought.

Eins··· Quinn··· Eins······

The literal translation in English is first·queen···

Nina raised an eyebrow, realizing something.

“Q1”

"Yes, that means he should already have the identity of ZERO by now, the question is whether he has Geass or not."

"Does it matter?"

"Yes, because if he has geass, it means that C.C has been in contact with him. Personally, I don't think that with the mind of the imperial brother, he would declare war on the Empire without superpowers, so the probability that C.C is currently by his side is very high. Our next priority was to reach out to her. ”

The Kraken has been unable to keep up at this point.

It only took five minutes for this white guy to gather a huge amount of information seemingly casually. This ability to process information... She had never seen or even heard of her past or present life.

According to his tone, he even had a plan for the next step.

"Miss Nina... Why do you think we're on this plane? Bai Mao turned around and asked. No, more accurately, who has the power to place us in this plane? ”

"Why do I think you look annoying right now?"

No one, no matter who they are, likes to show weakness in conversation, and this is especially true when it comes to intelligence.

"'God'"

Ilan didn't take the risk of finding the other party unhappy, and simply said the answer.

"Whether it's a trial, a prank, or even a punishment, teleporting two large living people to another alternate time and space is not something that human power can do. It is the only object of suspicion that we have at the moment. The only person I know can connect with that being is, as far as I know. So no matter how annoying it is, now we have to get the guy who calls himself Lelouch back to the student council, and maybe the answer is there. ”

Nina snorted noncommittally.

For some reason, she really wanted to see this white guy struggling now.

Obviously has the potential to become a more interesting toy than Lelouch, but... So... Boring.

Three points and one line.

Problem – Method – Solution.

Goal - means - achievement.

Like a machine, it constantly weighs the strength and weakness of itself and its opponents, and chooses the wisest response plan.

When a strong party does not hesitate to use violence, when he finds that the situation is out of control, he will raise his hands at the first time and surrender with all his might.

You can play with him yourself, with the power of Geass, but... Unlike Lelouch... This guy can't be changed.

Not to mention being played badly.

Is this the guy who claims to be the strongest human being? I see.

The more so... The more you want to destroy each other······

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Along the way, Ilan walked briskly in front of the two. Generally speaking, he wouldn't expose his back to the other party, but the beautiful posture of the two made him come from the soul... Unable to look directly.

Although I know that it is not "Lelouch", but the scene of the stinky man being held by the girl's arm, I am afraid that it will become a nightmare that haunts me in this life...

When I returned to the student union, I pushed the door and saw that familiar face.

Like an angry she-cat, the president grabbed Elan in the face———— in this world, he seemed to be her lackey number one, and it was a ravage.

Silly Rivar, the young girl Xiali... Karen···

His gaze swept over the girl's sickly face, not lingering———— some things became more unbearable the more similar they were.

It's not her...

Why do you have the same face?

No, now is not the time to think about such a thing.

Elan walked past the girl and took her purse with her.

Grasping it in his hand, the familiar dagger was still inside.

Assuming it is true, this Karen is still living a double life, and Ains Quinn is her.

What's next······

"Is Nanali there?"

Ilan asked Lelouch.

"Upstairs, what's wrong?"

"I have a surprise." Elan smiled and walked briskly up the stairs.

Unscrewed the door, and without knocking on the door, the handle of Nanali's bedroom was unscrewed.

Nanali was sitting in a wheelchair by the window, and there was a green girl in the other corner of the room.

Elan frowned and stepped forward to slap off the pizza C.C had in his mouth.

"Hey!"

As soon as the words came out, Ilan had already pinched her cheek and muffled the voice.

The green creature was furious and was about to burst out and hurt someone, when a sudden chill came from his throat.

Just before she lost consciousness, she saw that the white guy was wiping a knife on her clothes with a cold expression. The body lost strength, the throat was cut and could not make a sound, and the girl fell limply to the ground.

I've already killed her three times······ Elan thought as she took Karen's purse back into her pocket.

Now there is not a second to be delayed. Closing the door, Ilan took pen and paper, spread it on the table and began to write quickly.

"Give me my phone." Whitefur commanded Nanali.

"Brother Elan?" The girl, who hadn't figured out the situation yet, came slowly in a wheelchair. "What about C.C?"

"Dead. Cell phone. ”

Don't even bother to make up lies.

"Huh?"

Bai Mao didn't have time to explain to her, reached out and grabbed Nanali's mobile phone, and wrote quickly with his right hand. With his free left hand, he fumbled with the bumps on his phone and sent a message to someone at a rapid pace.

Footsteps could be heard on the stairs.

After writing the last stroke, Ilan grabbed the paper and stood behind Nanali, knocking Nanali unconscious with a knife in his hand.

The doorknob turned, and the person who came in was Lelouch.

The scene in front of him made him unable to say a word.

The crimson blood stretched quietly on the floor, and C.C collapsed in a pool of blood. And his younger brother, Ilan, was holding a knife to Nanali's neck for some reason, and the girl hung her head down, her life and death unknown.

"Lelouch, my glasses are custom-made, you should know. Now if you dare to make a little noise, she'll die. ”

“······”

Very good, anxious but calm.

Lelouch, Nanali is your death in any plane.

"I have only one request———— use your power to order me to do what is written on this piece of paper."

Ilan said, taking off his glasses and placing the handwriting in front of him.

Just looked Lelouch straight in the eyes.

Seeing that the opportunity had come, Lelouch decisively gave the order.

"Let her go!"

Ilan didn't move, and with the smile I knew would be like this, he tightened the dagger in his hand, almost cutting into the girl's flesh.

He pointed to his eyes.

"Double insurance."

Ever since he learned about his imperial brother's abilities, he has been wearing tinted contact lenses in addition to sleeping. It's been two years now, and it's become a habit.

He doesn't trust anyone.

Even if it's his own brother.

"Now close your eyes... Okay, open your eyes. This time I'll do as I said before. "Ilan directs his brother's actions.

"Let it go······ Do what is written on the paper. Lelouch didn't dare to take the risk, and said helplessly.

The red bird mark flew into Ilan's eyes.

This time there was still no reaction.

"Very good. Now close your eyes..."

Now Lelouch understood that this seemingly nonsensical act was actually eliminating the possibility of disobeying him.

This is a probabilistic event.

Every time she opens her eyes, Elan has two possibilities———— with contact lenses or without.

And as long as she has the mentality of gambling, Nanali may die.

He didn't know what was going on, he didn't know why his brother had become like this, with such a stranger's gaze······

Yourself··· There are no countermeasures.

Is this the only way to do it······

Finally, on the fifth time, a trance flashed in the eyes of Ilan, who was given the order.

He looked at his hand incredulously, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.

"Is that how it feels?"

Ilan said to himself.

Although disgusting... But...

As long as you can win, as long as you can win... By any means······

Letting go of Nanali and bypassing Lelouch who was still in a daze, White Fur trotted back downstairs and found Nina, who was being pestered by the president.

Everything that can be done has already been done, so let's give it a try.

"Ni~Na~Xiao~Sister~."

The Kraken turned his face, and his hand was rapidly approaching in his field of vision, and it was about to land on her face. The girl subconsciously started Geass.

A red glow flashed around Ilan's pupils, and then a smile appeared that had succeeded in his plan. Instead of stopping in the air, the palm of the hand accelerated!

————————————————————————————————————————————————

Lelouch picks up the straight strip on the ground, trying to figure out what happened to his brother.

The stuff above is more of a "coding" than a note.

That's an uncomplicated set of "if" instructions.

Lelouch swept down the ten lines at a glance, which simply is:

If, muscle condition = inability to exercise. Then, muscle condition = can be exercised, covered.

If, nerve current conduction = abnormal. Then, with nerve current conduction = normal, covered.

If, brain cells protrude = contact is interrupted. Then, with brain cells protruding = normal contact, covered.

If the instructions issued by the brain do not match the instructions received by the body, then the instructions issued by the brain are overwritten by the body to carry out.

And so on and so forth... There are more than a dozen such directives, and Ilan seems to have listed all the options in the world that could lead to the body being out of control.

But why? Is it just the fear of stroke hemiplegia?

Nope······

Wrong!

The sheer size of these instructions meant he wasn't sure which of them would happen to him. That is to say...

“geass！”

Thinking about this, Lelouch's eyes sharpened.

——————————————————————————————————————————————————

In the end, it was just a slight tap of the index finger on Nina's face.

"Ah, there's something in here."

As she spoke, Ilan pretended to rub her clothes on her clothes.

"What did you just do?"

The Kraken looked at him with incredulous eyes.

"I've found a way for us to live together peacefully."

With a long sigh of relief, the inhibition disappeared. For the first time today, Ilan felt himself breathing.

In previous experience, Elan has a certain degree of understanding of the mechanism of action of GEASS.

Geass could not resist.

For example, in the heart of Mao, it is impossible to order yourself to "not be read and think by the other party". Such orders are too direct and vague to be executed.

But geass can be covered. This kind of if command is to implant preset instructions into the brain and activate them when encountering the corresponding situation, so as to achieve the effect of covering the former later.

At first glance, it may sound like the same, but in practice, there is a general distinction between "firewall" and "repair software".

"Then Miss Nina, let's start sharing information."

Bai Mao twisted his neck and decorated himself with a courtesy smile again.
