Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 219 Love Master
"How can I help?" Su Weiyu swallowed.

"Don't worry, leave it to me. But I'm not helping you for no reason. This is cooperation." 678 said calmly.

It was this calmness that made Su Weiyu feel the other party's confidence and assurance.

Maybe it can!

After all, 678 does know humans very well, as stated in its file description.

"Then what do you want me to do?"

"I want to read some of the more obscure occult books and learn some history."

"You...are not up to any bad ideas, are you?" Su Weiyu asked suspiciously with caution.

"No, I just have a strong thirst for knowledge. Although you call me the Calamity Devouring Dragon Lizard, I am actually not happy to eat those abnormal objects. I am happy to learn knowledge and like to eat smart people. You humans have never paid attention to my real needs, but named me according to what is useful to you. This is your own arrogance. What does it have to do with me?" 678 said hoarsely.

Su Weiyu hesitated for a moment and thought that it might be a good idea to find some unimportant secret history books for 678 to read.

"Okay, then tell me, how are you going to help me?"

“Have you ever heard of the stair-climbing effect?”

Su Weiyu snapped her fingers and answered confidently, "I know! It is also called the "inch-and-inch effect" and is a psychological phenomenon.

This effect suggests that when a person first accepts a trivial request, they may accept a larger request in order to avoid cognitive dissonance or to create an impression of consistency to others.

There is a famous experiment in which the researchers first made a small request to a group of housewives - to hang a small sign on the window. Most of these housewives happily accepted it.

After a while, the researchers visited the housewives again and proposed a larger and less beautiful sign to be placed in the courtyard. More than half of the housewives accepted it.

"Then do this as the first step. In the process of courtship among you humans, it is very important to proceed step by step. This is also the reason why you are hesitant and don't know how to start. Listen carefully to what I say next. I won't repeat it a second time."

"Yeah, yeah!" Su Weiyu nodded vigorously and pricked up her ears to listen carefully.

"In the first example, a girl deliberately applied too much hand cream and then said, 'Oh, don't waste it.' Then she applied the hand cream to the boy she liked next to her and carefully helped him apply the hand cream. Using the widely recognized reason of thriftiness, she created an intimate contact without a legitimate reason."

"I've seen it many times on the Internet, so should I learn from it?" Su Weiyu was a little hesitant.

"Stupid. Once a method is widely spread, it loses its power and becomes passive, with people seeing through it. It's like a man and a woman going to a haunted house and pretending to be scared and hugging each other. When the man proposed to go to the haunted house for adventure, the woman had already seen through his intention. But humans are stupid. As long as you put on a layer of skin, you will still be fooled. You just need to slightly modify your strategy and you can use this method."

"Well... does this have something to do with the stair-climbing effect?" Su Weiyu was a little confused.

"I haven't even started yet. Applying hand cream is like the first step of a staircase. The last step is mating. Do you understand?"

"Oh... I understand, I understand." Su Weiyu nodded with a red face.

678 glanced at Su Weiyu and without hesitation gave a plan: "Use a new routine that no one has used before and come up with a legitimate reason to create intimate contact. This is the direction for your future strategy."

"do not understand."

"Let's practice with a little novice first and let him help you wash your hair."

Su Weiyu stroked her chin and thought for a moment, then nodded: "Xia Shou should agree to this request." "Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? Are you planning to ask him to wash your hair directly?"

"Isn't that what you mean?"

"You injured your finger and said you couldn't touch water. It would be a waste to use banned drugs directly for such a minor injury. Other doctors can't help you treat it quickly. Washing your hair is not a big deal. That guy will definitely agree without any hesitation."

"Oh - that's it!!!" Su Weiyu suddenly realized, her eyes sparkling, as if Columbus had discovered the New World.

678 laughed disdainfully and continued, "Washing your hair is just the first step. With your condition where no one else can help you, you can keep using new routines. This is a very covert form of moral kidnapping.

For example, if you injure your back, a place that is difficult to reach with your hands, you need to apply medicine every day, which is very inconvenient.

For example, if you run out of toilet paper, ask him to help you get some paper.

When you took a shower in the middle of winter and didn't bring a bath towel and shower gel, you asked him to bring them in. When you went to the door to get them, you fell and accidentally broke your ankle. Would he let you get up and put on your clothes by yourself before taking you to treatment?

At that time, would he just rush in and wrap you up in a towel, then avoid looking at you and give you first aid, asking about your health... Do you understand?"

Su Weiyu already had a picture in her mind.

Oh my god! Is this lizard a genius? Why didn't I think of this!

"Haha, I have plenty of these little brainless tricks. As long as you help me get a few insignificant little books to read, I can teach you." 678 said cunningly.

When Su Weiyu heard the other party say that these were simple and brainless tricks, she was stunned.

Don’t you need to use your brain to come up with these clever ideas? This big lizard is so smart!
It is simply a love master!!!
“Of course, if you use this method rashly, people will definitely notice it after doing it too many times, so different psychological effects are needed to make it natural.

Broken windows effect, placebo effect, labeling effect, suggestion effect, anyone with a little intelligence can apply them to any kind of interpersonal communication, including courtship. "

678 used a rough and harsh voice and said words that were smarter and wiser than any other teacher, which completely shocked Su Weiyu!
But she still suppressed her inner admiration and pretended to be calm and said: "Then, let's try it first."

"Next time you come for consultation, bring your own books." 678 turned his back, squatted on the huge haystack, and said nothing more.

Su Weiyu nodded silently, digesting the knowledge she had just learned. Her originally hesitant and timid heart was suddenly filled with confident strength.

If you use these methods, you will win!
She took out her cell phone and wanted to send a text message to Xia Shou to report that the study here had ended. As soon as she picked up the phone, a text message came in.

[I met Su Yue. Your parents said they wanted to invite me to your house for dinner. I agreed. Is that okay? ]

Su Weiyu, who had not walked a few steps far, stopped immediately, turned around and walked quickly back to the glass of 678's holding room.

"678, Xia Shou is coming to my house for dinner! What should I do?!" she asked nervously.

"Book..." The lizard licked its lips with its flexible tongue and squeezed out a word.

"Oh, I'll find you one right away! Wait a minute!"
