Persona: Devil Summoner

“Damn it… Why, why can you ask me if I want to join so normally?! Is it me who has the problem?! Is it my common sense that’s wrong?! Could it be that I’m the one whose ethics have collapsed?!”

This is the difference between people. When encountering something beyond their common sense, some people will firmly believe that they are right, while others will begin to doubt whether they are wrong. These two types of people are very common for service industry practitioners.

"Calm down and think carefully."

Bai Zhong Zhidou took a few deep breaths and tried to calm himself down.

"Could it be a misunderstanding?"

It's not surprising that Shirakami Naoto would have such thoughts. Once, when she was a high school student, she was invited to Narukami Yu's home on Christmas Day. But somehow, she misunderstood and thought that Narukami Yu wanted to kill her. As a result, she saw her companion holding a kitchen knife on the road. When she arrived at her senior's house, she saw her companions lying on the ground with bright red (actually tomato juice) all over their bodies. Then Narukami Yu came out with a kitchen knife to greet her, and she misunderstood.

but……

"No matter how I think about it, this isn't my misunderstanding, right? Damn it, what are these guys doing..."

Unable to calm down, she started to dwell on the issue again.

At times like this, other people's suggestions and opinions are often particularly important.

This is why many people like to ask their relatives and friends what to do when they are undecided.

So, where could anyone in this empty room give her advice?

"Kokoko, I think you have missed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Just then, the Big Woman of Babylon emerged from the room, still dressed in red as always, with a gorgeous body and an absolutely terrifying skull.

If it were any other day, Bai Zhong Zhidou would certainly be able to deal with her calmly, but now she herself is not calm, how can she deal with it calmly?

"Once in a lifetime?"

Bai Zhong Zhidou asked back suspiciously.

Seeing the young detective's rhetorical question, a smug smile appeared on the skeleton face of the Babylonian woman.

Chapter 529 Negotiation Skills

Negotiation requires a lot of skills, and no matter what negotiation skills are used, there is one unshakable premise: the other party must be willing to talk.

No matter how good a negotiator you are, if the person you are negotiating with is deaf, blind and dumb, the negotiation will not be successful. Once the other party refuses to communicate, no matter how many skills you have, they will be useless.

In the past, when Bai Zhongzhidou was calm, the Babylonian woman could not win no matter how insidious her tricks were. Even her proud charm was effective on her, but she could still deduce a whole set of dirty tricks with her head full of yellow garbage...

But it's different now. Her counter-question is a signal: judging from the fact that she started asking questions, I'm afraid she has been shaken to the point where she can't be any more shaken.

Although she was rational and knowledgeable, actual combat was different from theoretical warfare! So she was shocked and in a state of confusion. It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to disturb her mood. Of course, the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity mentioned by the great woman of Babylon was not just that simple.

"Kekeke, just like a wise and capable king would have many concubines, a strong person is strong in all aspects. Otherwise, how could he be superior to others? Just like, a thousand-mile horse naturally eats more feed than an ordinary horse, a brave warrior will get more rewards, and a hot-selling product will generate more profits... From this perspective, you should be glad that he has so many confidantes, which indirectly shows that he is really powerful!"

The Big Woman of Babylon unexpectedly spoke up for Jiang Tianwei.

This was not because she was good to Jiang Tianwei, or because she wanted to be a matchmaker to match her red dress, but because of her special ability.

Each of the demons before had his own special abilities, and the abilities of the Big Woman of Babylon were naturally related to lust.

Rather, the more one indulges in lust, the lower the possibility of defeating a big woman. No matter how powerful or invincible one is, as long as he still has lust as a human being, he cannot resist a big woman. Moreover, the more intense the lust, the stronger the backlash.

If it's hard to understand, this is similar to the [Poison Explosion] in the game. You stack poison on the opponent. The more poison you stack, the more powerful the explosion will be. But if you can't stack poison, or even a single layer of poison, then there's no way to talk about a poison explosion.

Originally, the combination of the Big Woman of Babylon and the Big Monk was invincible to Jiang Tianwei, but unfortunately, this stubborn monk was not good at hiding himself, and the result... everyone knew it. The Big Woman had to think of other ways.

Therefore, in order to win over Jiang Tianwei, she is now trying hard to exaggerate his sexual desire and prepare for a big wave in the future.

No matter how smart Bai Zhongzhidou was, he couldn't deduce the other party's ability. He just guessed that the other party's ability was related to emotions because she was so keen on matchmaking, but he didn't know what to do specifically...

And... Unconsciously, she is now particularly upset...

"so what?"

Facing the big woman's statement, Bai Zhongzhidou neither confirmed nor denied it. She tried to create a calm look in her eyes under her blue hair. But the big woman could still read her inner turmoil from the depths of her eyes.

"So, I want to tell you... there's no need to deliberately avoid this kind of thing! Laws? Common sense? These things have their limitations. They can only restrain ordinary people. You should understand that, right?"

Bai Zhongzhidou remained silent.

Because she knew very well that what the other party said was right. Many people tend to fall into a misunderstanding, that is, when debating with the other party, just because they hate it or want to win, they will force themselves to defend it even if what the other party said is really right.

Take the TV world murder case that Shiratonaga Naoto investigated in high school, for example. It was a typical case of an opponent who could not rely on common sense and law to fight. Even in the case, after knowing that the "real murderer" pushed Narukami Yuu's sister Nanako into the TV world and "murdered" her, she angrily hinted to her senior: since the TV world could not be proven by the police, then just push him in as well.

This is not murder, but a case of giving someone a taste of their own medicine, and there is no legal problem with this.

When I thought about the fact that even I had experienced such a situation because of impulsiveness, then Jiang Tianwei, who was easily emotional, not good at controlling himself, and not calm enough, would definitely make mistakes when facing so many beautiful girls!

——See, what did I say before? Humans are very good at convincing themselves to obey their desires.

Bai Zhongzhidou noticed it, but pretended not to notice: when she started to make excuses for Jiang Tianwei's behavior in her heart, it already explained a lot of problems.

"If you follow the trend today and join them, the three of you will be in a group, making love and falling deeply in love... then you will have a legitimate identity. Do you understand what I mean?"

"… Are you kidding me? How could I possibly do such a shameless thing! Three, three people?! I, I accept it, but I can't accept that bed!"

Bai Zhong Zhidou's face suddenly turned red again. She couldn't accept it and shouted loudly, as if getting louder would make her more confident.

"That's right. I understand your character very well - that's why I'm here. Since you can't accept so many people... just create a situation where there's only one person..."

"It's just... me?"

"Yes, of course. I am not asking you to play dirty tricks, trip him up, or even to secretly instigate him. I understand your character very well, so you should think about it the other way around. It is not about asking the child to ignore other people, but about making yourself more attractive than others. Then, of course, he will only look at you."

"Just looking at me alone?"

Bai Zhongzhidou swallowed his saliva, his eyes were a little straight, her reason told her that the woman's words were dangerous. The sweeter the words sounded, the sharpest knives were often hidden.

Her instinct also told her that the enemy of a friend is an enemy. Since she is an enemy, she certainly cannot believe a single word the skull-headed woman says!

but……

Clearly her reason and instinct were telling her not to believe it, but deep down, she still felt a hot, itchy urge that whispered to her: What if, what if it's true?

"I, I'll listen for now. But if I find out that you're doing anything fishy, ​​I'll summon your persona."

Chapter 530 What is the King of Charm?

So, how to quickly attract a man's attention?

Although this statement may seem a bit disrespectful to all men, it is indeed a true saying - that is, having a good-looking appearance is the key.

No matter how many rhetoric techniques are used, in the end, this society is a society that values ​​appearance. Even if we calm down and think about it, people still prefer to be beautiful. You can see this from the fact that the female anchors are all beautiful.

A careful analysis shows that although Jiang Tianwei's confidantes differ in personality type, occupation, age and lifestyle, they have one thing in common: those around him are all beauties picked from thousands.

Forget about the beautiful girls like the Yoshizawa sisters who are hyped by the media. Doctor Takemi Tae and Teacher Kawakami Sadayo are also beautiful in their own ways. Student Council President Shin Niijima is not only beautiful, but also has an outstanding temperament...

Although he didn't want to admit it, after taking pictures of these women one by one, Bai Zhongzhidou had to come to this sad conclusion: "If you are not pretty enough, you can't attract his attention at the first time..."

Bai Zhongzhidou took out a small dressing mirror from his arms and looked at his face.

Because of her job requirements, she always carries cosmetics with her. Although Baek Jong-nai-doo doesn't wear makeup, he always carries a makeup set with him. It is often useful, such as when tracking someone, if it is inconvenient to follow them around a corner, you can use a small mirror to secretly observe the situation around the corner. In extreme cases, you can use a mirror to reflect light to send signals, and use alternating long and short signals to simulate Morse code.

Makeup powder or lipstick can be used as a mark, and the most important thing is that it is very normal to search a woman with these things, and you don't have to think about how to explain it to others. But if you carry a recorder or a surveillance camera, it's another matter.

If she doesn't use cosmetics for makeup, Baek Jong-nai-doo feels like she's finished as a woman.

However, the Big Woman of Babylon smiled mysteriously and claimed that she had a way.

So, Bai Zhongzhidou, in the spirit of trying her best, and with the hope that she could not believe it, but what if it was true?, tried the advice of the great woman of Babylon for the first time...

What really made Bai Zhongzhi desperate was the heartbreaking words from the woman: "After tonight, the number of your rivals will increase from two to four. If you don't act quickly, you won't even be able to be the third wife. Oh, sorry, you could only be the sixth wife."

The next day, Shiraishi Naoto did not wear the swimsuit he bought with Kujigawa Risa.

Instead, she changed into a white swimsuit with pink petals printed on it, and wore a green gauze skirt with a very Chinese style on the outside.

This combination is not uncommon on the beach, many people wear clothes over their swimsuits, and this kind of tulle long skirt is not uncommon either.

The woman carefully put a circle of flowers in her blue hair.

The Babylonian woman is a pragmatist, she will not do something meaningless. She has already decided the time for the start of the Demon War. Now, in order to make herself 100% sure of winning over Jiang Tianwei, she must race against time to increase her chips, and naturally she will not deliberately cause trouble for Bai Zhongzhidou.

This swimsuit is a perfect match for her figure, thanks to the fact that Baek Jong Naoto usually wears men's clothing for his actions. The color combination also suits her figure. Among women of the same age, she is not very tall, so if she emphasizes the charming feeling, it always feels a little lacking.

Therefore, Chinese style, cuteness and contrast are the main styles of big women.

And...she has a sure-win trick.

Those are the flowers inserted on Bai Zhong Zhidou's head. The position of each flower is very particular, and the flowers used are also very particular. The position, fragrance, and color are all made according to the devil's secret method. The effect is that it has a built-in charm effect.

This time, the Big Woman of Babylon is using all her strength to help Bai Zhongzhidou seduce Jiang Tianwei...

However, this woman made one mistake.

That is, she forgot the biggest difference between herself and Bai Zhongzhidou.

As a demon, the Big Woman of Babylon is hard for ordinary people to detect her existence unless she is willing. So it doesn't matter how gorgeous she is.

But Baek Jong Naoto is different...she is a living person!

Bai Zhongzhidou looked at himself in the mirror and felt that he was indeed a little cute. He walked onto the beach in Hawaii with half belief and half doubt...

"Ah, miss, are you alone?"

The frivolous blond man and his maliciously smiling friend, who are always present in any comic about the beach, appeared and blocked Baek Jong Naoto's way.

"No, I'm looking for someone."

"Who are you looking for? We two brothers have nothing to do, so we can help you find it."

The lecherous duo appears!

"I……"

Just as Bai Zhong Zhidou was about to retort, a calm and stern female voice interrupted, "Didn't you see that she didn't agree? Men who cling to you are the worst!"

A beautiful woman with a great figure and a model-like look came over and protected Bai Zhongzhidou behind her. The two men scratched their heads: "We didn't do anything. We just invited her to play!"

"Who wants to play with you?"

The elder sister said, turned around and looked at Bai Zhongzhidou: "Girls have to be careful outside - you are so cute! Little sister, are you here alone? Do you want to play with me~ My room is quite big~"

The sister who had originally stepped forward to save her compatriots seemed quite cool, but suddenly the topic changed and the atmosphere seemed to become strange.

"Ah, that sister over there is so beautiful!"

A little girl suddenly pointed at Bai Zhongzhidou and shouted. She was holding an adult in each hand. They looked like a family of three who came to Hawaii for vacation.

With her voice as the opening, people on the Hawaiian beach couldn't help but focus their attention on Baek Jong Naoto, and couldn't help but sigh that it was really good-looking!

Then everyone gathered together to watch, just like taking photos around a great cosplayer at a comic convention, leaving Baek Jong Naoto at a loss.

She had never been surrounded by so many people...

People around were talking at once, some were praising, some were inviting, some were asking for a date, some were asking for contact information, and someone even got a bunch of flowers from somewhere and confessed their love on the spot...

The results are immediate, immediate.

The Big Mac of Babylon is indeed a demon who plays with the concept of "charm". Even with such a skull face, she can still sit firmly in the first seat of the Queen of Charm. She is indeed quite capable.

But the problem is that Bai Zhongzhidou is now unable to move, so how can he find Jiang Tianwei?

So, she had to take out her cell phone...

"Danger! Come quickly!"

Then, she attached her location sharing...

At this moment, she deeply understood the feelings of those imprisoned princesses...

Chapter 531 Kiss, but love is a comedy

Jiang Tianwei's arrival did not make the situation better.

This feeling is like trying to put cold water into a pot of boiling hot oil. Not only will it not have a cooling effect, it will even cause the already boiling hot oil to splash everywhere, which is commonly known as a pot explosion.

It's the same now.

No matter what their mentality was, the people surrounding Detective Bai Zhong could not accept that a stinky man came and interfered.
