“…”

"Don't cry, don't cry, look, isn't it back to normal?"

"Well...but..."

"Okay, okay, aren't you mentally prepared?"

"That being said..."

Riko, wrapped in pajamas, squatted in the corner, looking like she was about to cry after being dragged into an alley and beaten by a dozen big men while walking home at night. Fang Zheng was helplessly trying to comfort her.

"But...but...that's too..."

When she said this, Riko's eyes turned red and she started crying again.

Looking at Lizi's expression, Fang Zheng shook his head helplessly.

As for why this happened?

The reason is simple.

As expected, Riko's abilities went out of control.

Of course, this is normal. Fang Zheng has said this before, and Riko is mentally prepared.

But...the problem is Riko's ability.

Her ability is body transformation.

Simply put, it means that you can control your body as you wish.

But what if it gets out of control?

Well, for the sake of the reputation of the person involved, I won’t describe the specific situation. If you want to know the details, please refer to the plastic figurine after being burned...

At that time, Riko almost collapsed.

This is normal. Anyone who opens his eyes and sees that his arms and legs are all flattened as if by an elephant, his whole body is twisted beyond description, and even his face becomes scarier than the female ghost in a horror movie will be shocked.

Not to mention a young, cute and beautiful girl like Riko.

It was true. In Fang Zheng's opinion, even if she had been locked up naked in a cage for several years as a breeding bitch by that werewolf, it didn't seem to be as big a blow to Riko as losing control of her own abilities...

How should I put it…

Oh, women...

"I, I didn't expect it to be like this..."

"That's out of control, don't think too much about it."

"But... that..."

At this point, Riko seemed a little embarrassed to speak.

"Um...Mr. Fang Zheng, you don't hate me, do you?"

"Hmm? Why?"

"Because I became so ugly..."

"I've already said that it was an accidental loss of control. As long as you control your abilities, then there will be no problem, right?"

"But if I can't control myself, I'll become neither human nor ghost!"

Riko seemed to be fixated on this point, and Fang Zheng was speechless. How could he explain it...

Women...

"So what should we do? How about you change back? Give up this ability?"

“Woo…”

Hearing this, Riko began to feel conflicted again. She squatted in the corner, groaning for a long time, and finally nodded as if she was going to the execution ground.

"No, I still decided to use this ability! This is the fate of the Lupin family. Since my great-grandfather used this ability, then I can definitely do it... That's right! It must be like this! My great-grandfather was able to seduce so many beauties back then, so there must be no problem!"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng rolled his eyes helplessly. Of course, he knew who the great-grandfather Riko was talking about was, the Phantom Thief Lupin - also known as Arsene Lupin, who was as famous as Sherlock Holmes. Of course, if this was put in a martial arts novel, it would basically be Chu Liuxiang.

Unlike Sherlock Holmes who remained single all his life, Arsene Lupin is a romantic who basically picks up a new woman every time he solves a case. His romanticism is comparable to that of 007 and Bond girls.

Of course, like Sherlock Holmes and Chu Liuxiang, Arsene Lupin is just a fictional character in a novel, but in this world... it seems that there is such a person.

And also romantic.

After using her great-grandfather as an example to encourage herself, Riko seemed to have finally come out of the shadow of losing control of her abilities, and her complexion looked much better.

"Okay, okay, you don't have to worry so much. I have sealed the abilities in your body. Currently, you can only use the most basic body transformations. Once you gradually master them, the seal will be gradually released... just like upgrading in a game, so you don't have to worry so much. Also, you don't have to worry about losing control of your abilities anymore."

"Um……"

After hearing this, Riko finally felt relieved. She breathed a sigh of relief and ran back to the locker room to change clothes.

"Why……"

Looking at Li Zi's back, Fang Zheng shook his head and sighed, then frowned.

I really didn't expect that this little bit is too much?

Referring to the goddess's power data, Fang Zheng thought he was safe. He only gave Li Zi 0.000001% of his power, but Li Zi still lost control. Fortunately, Fang Zheng suppressed Li Zi's power in a hurry when he saw the situation was not good, otherwise Li Zi might have exploded on the spot.

Is the gap between gods and mortals so big?

Fang Zheng just felt that Li Zi was like an ant. She was about to explode before he even put any effort into it. This was no longer a cautious move. This was like sewing a blood vessel under a microscope. No, this was like touching a cell nucleus. A slight touch would kill her!

Fortunately, Fang Zheng used his own divine power for safety reasons. He had this worry before, so he used his own divine power to inject Li Zi. In this way, even if something happened, Fang Zheng could withdraw the power in time. However, it seems that except for the psychological trauma caused by the loss of control to Li Zi, there is nothing serious.

All that's left is for Riko to gradually digest this divine power and there should be no problem.

However, this method obviously cannot be used any more. Fang Zheng originally wanted to use this method to activate the superpowers of Saten Ruiko, but now he obviously has to give up this idea. Riko was more or less mentally prepared, and she had gone through far more painful suffering than ordinary people, so her mind was relatively strong.

Leizi is just an ordinary junior high school girl. If she isn't careful about this, she might even collapse.

There is no other way. Let’s think of other ways.

“Ding Dong.”

However, at this moment, the doorbell suddenly rang. Fang Zheng opened his personal terminal and took a look. After seeing Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko outside, he was stunned for a moment.

Why did these two guys come to my house?

Although he was a little confused, Fang Zheng came to the gate and opened it.

"Hey, long time no see, what are you doing here?"

"Can't you come and see me if you have nothing to do?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Misaka Mikoto responded somewhat helplessly, while Fang Zheng just laughed.

"Of course not. I'm not busy right now. I welcome you to come..."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng looked at Shirai Kuroko who was behind Misaka Mikoto.

"You're not wearing anything like that today, are you?"

“No!”

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Shirai Kuroko's face suddenly turned red, and then she subconsciously held her schoolbag in front of her skirt, looking like she was guarding against a peeping monster peeping under her skirt. Seeing this scene, Misaka Mikoto was secretly happy. You know, Shirai Kuroko always looked perverted in front of her. After Fang Zheng pointed out that she was wearing shameless underwear, Kuroko immediately crouched on the ground with her head in her hands, blushing - although it's not nice to say this, it was the first time Misaka Mikoto saw Kuroko's girlish side.

And thanks to this, Kuroko, who used to always make irresponsible remarks about her wearing safety pants under her skirt, now just shut up and stopped talking about it, which made Mikoto feel very happy... For a moment, she liked Fang Zheng even more.

As the saying goes, everything thrives and annihilates each other, maybe Heizi's natural enemy is this man?

If this is true, then maybe I can find a good way to deal with black spots in the future.

"We're not here to disturb you, actually...well, we heard from Saten that she's conducting an experiment to improve her abilities here, so we were curious and wanted to come and take a look..."

Misaka Mikoto's words were half true and half false. It was true that Hatsuharu had indeed learned from Saten that she had signed a contract with Fang Zheng to become an experimental subject, but Hatsuharu was worried about it and could not get away due to work, so she got rid of Kuroko and came to take a look. The reason why Misaka Mikoto came along was very simple - she was confused by Fang Zheng's unscientific rhetoric in the family restaurant before, so after Fang Zheng left, she remembered that she still didn't know how he blocked her lightning strike!

So I just came to his house.

This time you can escape the monk but not the temple, and I want to know how you did it!

"Of course, no problem. Feel free to visit if you want."

Fang Zheng shrugged.

"Oh? Aren't you afraid that we might find something weird and dangerous?"

Heizi was in a bad mood because Fang Zheng had given him a warning when they first met.

"Many research institutes conduct illegal experiments under the guise of research. I hope you are not one of them. This is our jurisdiction, and I don't want anything to go wrong."

"Don't worry, I'm doing basic research, it won't be anything too dangerous."

"Really?"

Having said that, Heizi blinked and stared at Fang Zheng.

"By the way, I heard recently that there is a rumor about a tool called Fantasy Hand that can improve a person's ability level... Did you know about it?"

"oh?"

Hearing Heizi's question, Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment.

"Why are you asking me this?"

"Because there have been some troublesome things recently, I heard that they seem to be related to this. You are also a person who studies ability development, so you should have some information about this."

As she spoke, Heizi stared at Fangzheng. It was obvious that she came here not just to help her friend visit the institute. Perhaps for Heizi, this was her real purpose.

"Um……"

Facing Heizi's question, Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes.

Ouch, should I give away spoilers or not?
