Genshin Impact: One Soul in Two Bodies

Chapter 609 - 609: So you want to do that again with Kaito?

"Mobius." After settling on that plan of 'revenge,' Miko called out Mobius's name.She figured Mobius would surely agree to it.

Hm?

What is Miko trying to do?

Suddenly hearing Miko, behind her, calling out to Mobius, Lumine instinctively turned her head to glance behind herself.

At this moment Miko still had her hands cuffed behind her back, and still had no clothes on her body.

Oh, right...

After seeing Miko's enviable figure, Lumine finally snapped back to her senses and immediately picked up Miko's clothes from the bed beside her to drape over her.

What a messy bed...

The two of them got way too worked up, didn't they...

As she picked up the clothes and looked at the disheveled bed, Lumine silently thought this to herself.

The blanket half-fallen to the floor, Miko's various garments—all of it was scattered haphazardly across the bed.

If she had been the one here today, it definitely wouldn't have been this messy—after all, she would have put the clothes away properly rather than just tossing them straight onto the bed.

As for Kaito's clothes, the her of before had seen Kaito also put his clothes away neatly before getting down to it.

But now, it seemed he no longer did that.

Is it because I'm not as much of a draw?

Wondering why, Lumine couldn't help but arrive at this guess.

"Thank you, Lumine." At this, Miko's thanks brought Lumine back to her senses.

"No need to thank me."

The moment she came to her senses, Lumine said there was no need for thanks.

Actually, come to think of it, she still ought to say sorry to Miko—after all, she'd misunderstood Miko, to the point of seeing Miko in that embarrassing state.

Still, there was no telling when Mobius had shown up here; if it had been only Miko, who knew what might have happened.

"I finally get to hear you speak, you little fox. And here I thought you were so scared you couldn't get a word out—turns out you were just..."

"Ahem, it was that guy Kaito who got me into this state, what was I supposed to do?" Knowing what Mobius was about to say, Miko hurriedly cut off her words.

"But somehow I get the feeling that you just turn your back and disown him the moment the fun's over. I bet that while you were doing that kind of thing with Kaito, you did whatever he said, and then once the pleasure passed you started regretting it, am I right?" Regarding Miko's way of putting it onto Kaito's side, Mobius said this in a speculative tone.

After all, Miko was clearly making Kaito's side take the fall—just like how Kaito's side had previously made Wendy's side take the fall.

Of course, she couldn't speak too absolutely either, lest Miko think she'd just been eavesdropping, or that Kaito's side had told her about it.

"As if. It was Kaito who made me wear this thing."

Not expecting Mobius to suspect her, Miko hurriedly continued to deny it.

Of course, what she said wasn't wrong either—it really had been Kaito who made her wear it.

But what she didn't say was that, in truth, she'd wanted to wear it herself, too.

And besides, if she hadn't wanted to wear that thing back then, Kaito most likely wouldn't have forced her.

"That works too. I'll just put it back on you right now." Seeing that Miko was dodging the heart of the matter, Mobius prepared to stuff the thing in her hand back into Miko's mouth.

"Wait, wait!"

The instant she heard Mobius was about to stuff that thing back into her mouth, Miko hurriedly said to wait.

No matter what, she hadn't even gotten her plan out yet—she couldn't have that thing put back on her.

Actually, holding that thing in her mouth again wasn't really a big deal—she'd already been seen anyway—but she still wanted to tell Mobius about that plan first.

"You look like you've got something important to tell me. What is it you want to say?"

Knowing that Miko had something to tell her, Mobius was curious what she wanted to say, so she didn't keep walking toward Miko.

She would just hear out what Miko was about to say next.

"It's that you want to go another round of that with Kaito, right?"

Seeing Mobius stop, Miko began laying out her plan, wearing a 'you-know-what-I-mean' expression at this point.

Lumine: "???"

Unable to help turning her head back again to look at Miko, Lumine wore a baffled expression.

Figuring this was probably just Miko trying to stall Mobius, Lumine didn't open her mouth to say anything.

"Whether I want to or not is none of your business. Anyway, I can turn into the lot of you anytime I please." Regarding what Miko said, Mobius seemed not to care at all.

Of course, that was just an act she put on—in truth, she found it very strange what exactly Miko was trying to do.

Is Miko getting ready to stall me?

Afraid I'll snatch them all away again?

Turning this possibility over in her mind, Mobius quietly awaited Miko's answer.

She knew that next, Miko was about to lay out her plan in full.

"That's right, that's exactly it—but we've already agreed on a secret code with Kaito, you know. When doing certain important things, he'll ask for the code; if you can't answer it, then you're a fake." Under the gazes of Mobius and Lumine, Miko said this with great confidence.

But while she was confident, the Lumine beside her was utterly baffled.

A secret code?

When did Kaito ever agree on a secret code with us???

Could it be from just now?

Unable to help thinking this, Lumine couldn't help but guess that this matter had only just happened.

If that were the case, then she hadn't agreed on any secret code with Kaito—she didn't even know about this whole thing.

But even so, Lumine still didn't let anything show.

Because she knew this might just be Miko deceiving Mobius.

This Miko...

She lies without so much as a blush or a flutter of the heart...

Watching Miko's confident manner, Mobius couldn't help but think this.

After all, what Miko said was something she knew absolutely nothing about, yet Miko said it so convincingly, as if it were the real deal.

If she and Kaito weren't actually one and the same person, she really would have been fooled by Miko.

"A secret code? Hmph, but don't you two know it? Then I'll just obtain it from you." Looking as though she didn't care, Mobius, after saying this, also took on a posture of being ready to make a move.

Could you at least put down that thing in your hand before you say something like that...

Although Mobius now looked ready to act, Lumine, who couldn't stop glancing at the thing in her hand, thought this with utter speechlessness.

If Mobius had said something like this earlier she would have felt nervous, but now she felt only speechless—after all, Mobius was still holding that thing even now.

"Then go ahead and try. Kaito will be back soon, and when that happens you can forget about doing that kind of thing with him."

At this moment Miko wore a fearless look, as if she didn't care whatever Mobius did.

Of course, it was impossible for her not to care, but she had to make Mobius believe that she didn't.
