The mask was like some kind of conceptual deity; no matter how much you thought your cosplay was reduction, as long as you wore a mask, others would very likely perceive you as a femboy.
"Holy crap, I didn't realize, Fourth Bro, you're so stacked?"
As soon as Mo Yu sat down, Yuwen Chong and Yun Tao, those two guys, chuckled and sidled over.
"It's all fake, just some cheap padding."
Mo Yu rolled his eyes at Yuwen Chong and took off his gloves. Many characters wear gloves, but in real life, wearing gloves is incredibly inconvenient. Unlocking a phone becomes a problem, and generally, cosplay gloves are designed for accuracy, with no comfort whatsoever.
"Tsk tsk."
"It's okay, Fourth Bro, let me feel your leg~"
"It's the same if you feel your own leg, there's no difference."
Mo Yu said indifferently.
"Wow, Fourth Bro, you're so heartless!"
Yuwen Chong hugged himself, putting on an incredibly heartbroken expression, but Mo Yu showed no reaction at all... he knew these two guys in his dorm too well.
Take his cross-dressing, for example. From a God's-eye view, it was quite a big deal, and even these two in the dorm had noticed it. But then what? Their reactions were just like that.
"Never mind, I'm going to the balcony to change."
With that, Mo Yu stood up again, dragging his suitcase towards the balcony. Their dorms all had balconies, and the balconies also had curtains. Closing the balcony door and drawing the curtains made for a perfectly fine makeshift changing room.
You ask if it would be hot to close the door and windows in the middle of summer? Oh, there was air conditioning in the dorm.
Finally, he finished changing. He folded the cosplay outfit, put it into the suitcase, and then placed the wig into a cake box. With that, he was done.
It's worth mentioning that next time... he probably wouldn't need to prepare these things. Hmm, the mysterious power from the system.
In fact, this time, he could have used the clothes provided by the system, but... he had prepared for a long time, and customizing the outfit cost several thousand yuan. To just abandon it because he had a system would be too much of a waste.
In fact, to be honest, he had even originally planned to wear it for a few more days.
His aversion to cross-dressing was far less than the heartache for his wallet. A set of clothes costing several thousand yuan... all the clothes he usually wore combined only cost a few hundred yuan.
As long as it was everyday wear, he would wear it until it was well-worn.
In short, now he could finally sit comfortably in his spot and play games... right?
"No, what kind of look is that?"
Just as he opened CF, ready for a thrilling ranked match, Mo Yu saw Yun Tao pushing up his glasses and looking at him with a very surprised expression.
"No, buddy, you should be live-streaming and raking in the cash."
"Huh?"
Mo Yu blinked, looking bewildered.
"You're so confused!"
Yun Tao had an expression of deep regret, as if he was disappointed in him.
"You have momentum right now; you should take advantage of it, start a stream, create some scenarios, and make a lot of money. This way, you can directly save ten years of detours."
"Heh heh, if you want to do it, I can lend you the clothes."
Mo Yu rolled his eyes. No! Did they really think live-streaming was easy? He certainly didn't have the talent or the interest, but as he said, if his roommate wanted to do it, he wouldn't mind helping out.
Anyway... for a custom-made cosplay outfit like his, 99% of the time it would be a dead loss. He might be able to sell it, but it definitely wouldn't be satisfying. If his roommate wore it and took some photos... he really didn't mind.
"If it were me... then... I'd rather not, right?"
After hearing Mo Yu's words, Yun Tao, who had been emotionally agitated, instantly fell silent and became somewhat hesitant. He could tell that Mo Yu was serious, but in fact, he was just joking and stirring things up.
However, in his heart, he still felt a little sorry for Mo Yu, but considering Mo Yu's situation, it seemed less important.
Ultimately, he could only let out a long sigh.
"Why don't I have your advantages!"
Seeing this, Mo Yu didn't pay any more attention and instead pondered the abilities that came with role-playing. Rewards like master-level performance skills had no restrictions, but an ability like Absolute Rationality required a certain level of role-playing to activate.
In other words, if he cosplayed Ruan Mei to conduct experiments or ponder certain problems, he would be able to utilize this ability to its maximum extent.
Although Ruan Mei also had a line: "Humans overestimate logic too much. Obsession with rationality will make one a slave to emotions—science comes from fanaticism, this is a talent."
He did not possess the fanaticism for science, so was his obsession with this Absolute Rationality ability wrong?
Of course—not.
Ultimately, from a scientific perspective, Ruan Mei's level was a bit too high, and he was just an ordinary person, not even comparable to the so-called mediocre. Therefore, such an ability... was very powerful for him. As for becoming a slave to emotions... he was indeed not qualified enough yet.
"In that case... should I try going to the library like this tomorrow?"
Mo Yu mumbled softly.
"What? Are you going to cosplay to the library tomorrow?"
Yun Tao, who was still nearby, happened to hear Mo Yu's mumbling and immediately exclaimed loudly.
"Holy crap, Fourth Bro, you've finally wised up!"
"Wait, isn't there a specialized course tomorrow morning?"
Yuwen Chong, who was nearby, suddenly remembered something and turned his head to say.
Yes, even though it was their third year and close to the end of the semester, they indeed had one more specialized course tomorrow. However, it was also the last one.
Hmm, precisely because it was the last specialized course of the semester, generally speaking, the professor would highlight key points and take attendance. This also meant that most students who had been absent for various reasons would show up for this class.
So... thinking of this, Yuwen Chong and Yun Tao's gazes towards Mo Yu held a hint of amusement. What's more, this class... seemed to be Professor Li's class.
However, Mo Yu didn't pay any attention to his roommates' gazes. At this moment, he was still contemplating the feasibility of the ability...
