Chen Luo Is Assassinated; Lock Down All of... the Fire Moth! (Continued)

Chen Luo wanted to find out what Flandre's mental state was like when she was interacting with people normally.

A state where you're invincible is not a good thing.

"Okay." Flandre and took Chen Luo's hand.

"Hmm, looks alright, at least I'm not injured..."

"Bang!" Before Chen Luo could finish speaking, his right shoulder was suddenly exploded, instantly turning into a bloody mess.

"... Never mind what I said," Chen Luo said quite calmly.

"Alo!"

"Brother Luo!"

"Lolo!"

Exclamations of surprise echoed throughout the bar.

Buried amidst all the gasps and feeling the immense hostility, Flandre instinctively took a step back.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to," Flandre said, sounding flustered.

"Hey, don't push over here! I'm doing a social practice course, so please stay away." Chen Luo simply dodged the large group of people rushing towards him.

If this group of people pounces on me, they'll crush me at the very bottom.

I was already injured...

So Chen Luo went directly behind Flandre, picked Flandre up, and used her as a shield.

"Huh?" Flandre was even more flustered.

"Alright, don't worry about me. It's just an injury. It's not like I haven't died before," Chen Luo explained to everyone.

This is a necessary sacrifice.

"Are you really alright?" the Herrscher of Knowledge asked with some concern.

"I'm really fine."

"How about we quit being teachers?"

"No way." Chen Luo rejected the suggestion outright.

"But..." Mobius frowned.

"There's no 'but, 'Little Fran really didn't mean it, right?" After everyone calmed down, Chen Luo put Fran down and said.

"Sigh, teacher, do you believe me?" Flandre turned her head and looked at Chen Luo with some disbelief.

Logically speaking, if you get injured the moment after the restrictions are lifted and you shake hands, isn't it obvious that the other party did it on purpose?

Is the person in front of me stupid?

"Nonsense, how can a teacher not trust their students?"

Okay, actually, the 108 Methods to Prevent Scams do verify that Fran did not say anything.

Chen Luo's ability to Herrscher of Knowledge is useless in the bar, just like Komeiji Satori's ability to Mind Reading.

Although Chen Luo had the manager's privileges, in order to prevent others from discovering that he was secretly using those privileges to read people's minds, which could damage the bar's reputation, Chen Luo chose not to use them at all and simply turned off the manager's privileges.

"..."

Because of the initial positive impression, Flandre trusted Chen Luo quite a bit.

Now? Now I trust them even more.

Seeing Chen Luo's persistence, everyone was at a loss and dispersed.

But she was still staring intently at Chen Luo and Flandre.

"Fran, can you tell me why you just crushed my shoulder...?"

"Bang."

"Great, I almost lost my kidney this time." Chen Luo glanced at his waist, which was covered in blood and gore.

"T-Teacher, I'm sorry. I don't know why, but when I'm with you, I always have this inexplicable urge to destroy things." After accidentally crushing another part of the other person's body, Flandre quickly apologized.

"... Okay, I believe you."

As it turns out, Flandre was not lying.

When facing Chen Luo, Flandre does indeed possess a rather unique destructive urge.

This destructive urge is not subject to Flandre's will.

Chen Luo didn't care about his injuries. He quickly activated his "Break Cocoon into Butterfly" ability, turning the severity of his injuries into nutrients to improve Chen Luo physical fitness and other attributes.

"In fact, Fran does have this condition. Most of the time, Fran is not filled with an inexplicable destructive urge in all situations; she is actually normal most of the time. But it is because of certain rare cases that Fran cannot leave the basement." Soon after, Patchouli, who had also arrived at the bar and was about to discuss magical knowledge with Yun Lian'er, was pulled over by Chen Luo.

"Perhaps it's due to Fran's ability, coupled with Flandre's relatively young mental age and lack of mental maturity to control this ability, so she is always affected by the ability and sometimes develops a unique destructive urge."

"Simply put, it's a mismatch between mindset and ability. When someone possesses an ability with such a strong destructive tendency, their personality might even follow that ability instead of allowing them to control it." Patchouli, as a scholar who has spent so much time with Flandre, naturally has a deep understanding of this aspect.

But despite her understanding, Patchouli couldn't change the situation.

Remilia stood by, watching her sister and Chen Luo with some concern.

"I see... Fran, let me ask you a question. Your destructive urges are sometimes uncontrollable, right? Don't answer 'I don't know.' If you don't know, just answer 'yes' and shake your head," Chen Luo asked.

"Yes." Fran shook her head.

Although Flandre didn't know why Chen Luo wanted her to do this, she just had to obey.

"..."

The 108 Methods to Prevent Scams have not been implemented.

This proves that it is indeed the truth.

In fact, the 108 Methods to Prevent Scams only respect objective facts, which can be considered an alternative way of using them.

Whether you are aware of what has happened to you or not, as long as you go against what has happened to you, the 108 Methods to Prevent Scams will be effective.

For example, if I beat you up, erase your memory, and then ask me if I hit you.

Although you may not remember it subjectively, it was indeed something you experienced.

If you answer that you didn't beat him, that's a lie.

"When you're facing me, do you have an uncontrollable urge to destroy things? And is it particularly obvious?"

"If you keep pinching me, is it possible to gradually help you take control of your abilities, instead of being controlled by them?"

"If you keep pinching me, will it increase your affection for me?"

Following a series of inquiries from Chen Luo using the 108 Methods to Prevent Scams, Chen Luo was able to confirm one thing.

That is, pinching herself does indeed help Flandre release her emotions and suppress her destructive power, and may even increase Flandre's favorability towards Chen Luo...

In short, simply pinching Chen Luo can achieve an excellent therapeutic effect on Flandre...

This caused Chen Luo to overturn all the strategies he had previously devised.

Although the old methods can still be used, such as using the abilities of the Herrscher of Knowledge to adjust the other party's thinking, sealing and reducing the other party's ability level to make the other party grow mentally, etc.

But the most effective method was to let Flandre vent her frustrations on Chen Luo.

Any kind of venting is fine.

Even light punches to Chen Luo's chest are acceptable; it doesn't necessarily have to damage Chen Luo's body...

Does Chen Luo have a masochistic personality?

Chen Luo was completely stunned when he learned about this.

"This is really..." Chen Luo's face was full of strangeness.

"..." Flandre pulled at her hat, bracing herself for a scolding.

Although I don't know why, given my situation, it's probably not appropriate for us to continue being friends.

I finally met a nice older brother.

"This is fantastic! Isn't this a perfect match for the Break Cocoon into Butterfly?" Chen Luo suddenly realized.

For injuries, Chen Luo can directly use the Herrscher of Knowledge's ability to shield himself from pain.

And you can also get a little girl for free.

"Quick, quick, Fran, pinch my right arm to make it look like the injury is more serious," Chen Luo said, pulling Fran's hand.

"Um... Teacher, please don't do this. If it's psychological therapy, we can use other methods, really." Seeing Chen Luo's enthusiasm, Fran was a little at a loss.

Flandre isn't stupid. From Patchouli and Chen Luo's conversation, she could roughly deduce that Chen Luo was not only her tutor but also most likely her psychologist.

However, Flandre didn't seem to mind.

Even without pinching this older brother's fingers, Flandre quite likes him.

Furthermore, Flandre had a destructive urge before pinching Chen Luo, but after pinching Chen Luo, she felt an indescribable sense of guilt when she saw Chen Luo injured, and she felt very regretful.

So if possible, Flandre doesn't want to pinch Chen Luo anymore.

"No, I'm serious. Come on, sculpt it according to this design I drew. Make sure the dents look realistic."

"This..." Flandre was confused by Chen Luo's enthusiasm.

"Little Fran, trust me, I really need these injuries to be effective," Chen Luo said quite seriously.

"But..."

"No buts, hurry up and squeeze it. After you're done, Uncle... Brother will give you a lollipop."

"Sister..." Flandre seemed to be in a predicament and turned to Remilia for help.

"Chen Luo! Let go of my sister!" Remilia slammed her hand on the table and stood up.

In the past, my younger sister would at most call me "elder sister".

I don't know how many years it's been since I last heard that "sister" again.

Although I respect my older sister more than my older sister, I also feel more distant from her.

Remilia decides to uphold her dignity as an older sister in response to her younger sister's plea for help.

Go play somewhere else.

Chen Luo took out his camera.

"Oh."

"Oh, sister..."

"Don't look at me, I can't help it either," Remilia cried out in despair.

The next day...

"Chen Luo was assassinated, and the entire... oops, Chen Luo was attacked by assassins at his own home yesterday and was seriously injured and hospitalized. He is currently recuperating at home! His right arm is a bloody mess, there are pictures to prove it, and it is now wrapped in bandages!"

"The only doctor who can guarantee survival after a failed fusion surgery needs to take six days off to recover from his injuries."

This news instantly became a trending topic on the Fire Moth.

"Sigh, finally I can slack off. I'm going to participate in the Holy Grail War for 6 days." Chen Luo gave himself a thumbs up for his cleverness.

After all, he had indeed been attacked by an assassin yesterday.

"Bang!"

But the next moment, Chen Luo's door was kicked open.

"Uh, Hua? What brings you here?" Chen Luo looked at Hua, who was carrying bedding, with a blank expression.

"The Doctor, starting today, I'll be sharing a dorm room with you and will be responsible for your safety. Don't worry, I'll sleep on the floor," Fu Hua said, hugging her blanket.

"??? no!"

Just kidding, how am I supposed to go out and have fun if you come?

"There's no room for discussion on this." Hua was unusually firm for once.

After all, he was Chen Luo's bodyguard.

The other party specifically designated me as their bodyguard, which undoubtedly indicated their desire to help me. They even gave me their family's martial arts manual and said they would get me a top-quality weapon from another department...
