Oh no! They all seem a bit off!

How to dodge a zero-frame attack in Chapter 67?
"Why are you looking at me? You pervert."

Shiraishi Rin, seeing Akizuki Makoto staring intently at him, turned his head to the side and muttered a curse under his breath.

"Didn't you ask me to take care of you? Now you won't let me?"

Akizuki Makoto retorted irritably and turned his head to the side.

He talks as if he's particularly interested in watching Shiraishi Rin. If he weren't afraid she'd use her phone to hypnotize him with zero frames, he wouldn't bother watching at all.

However, although he turned his head to the side, he was still glancing at Shiraishi Rin out of the corner of his eye, wary of her.

Under his gaze, Shiraishi Rin did not make any unusual movements, but simply lay quietly.

"Could it be that I am overthinking it?"

He couldn't help but have some doubts, wondering if Shiraishi Rin was really as Takahashi Miki said, that she was feeling unwell and had become emotionally vulnerable and needed someone to accompany her.
However, his idea quickly vanished with Shiraishi Rin's next move.

While Akizuki Makoto was pondering to himself, Shiraishi Rin's hand, which was under the blanket, had already reached for the cell phone hidden in his uniform.

At this moment, Akizuki Makoto was still wondering if Shiraishi Rin was really as sharp-tongued and tsundere as Takahashi Miki had said.

He was completely unaware of the excitement gleaming in Shiraishi Rin's eyes.

"Top Student!"

Shiraishi Rin suddenly called out to attract Akizuki Makoto's attention.

As expected, Akizuki Makoto was startled by her shout and instinctively turned to look at her.

But what greeted him was Shiraishi Rin holding up his phone screen, on which appeared a pink heart surrounded by swirling purple vortexes!
BYD, how do you dodge a zero-frame attack?

"I……"

Akizuki Makoto's eyes widened suddenly. Before he could say anything, a strong wave of dizziness swept through his body, making his consciousness heavy and scattered.

His body also became heavy, and the feeling of being dominated once again filled his mind and body.

Despite all his precautions, he still couldn't stop Shiraishi Rin's zero-frame opening move.

As long as Shiraishi Rin gets her hands on a cell phone, she can immediately activate her superpowers to hypnotize someone.

Unlike in the notebook, it doesn't require unlocking the screen or opening a dedicated hypnosis app.

"Heh, heh heh... Hahahaha!"

Looking into Akizuki Makoto's eyes, which immediately lost their luster and became listless and unfocused, Shiraishi Rin could no longer suppress his laughter and burst into unrestrained laughter.

Outside the medical bed curtains, Takahashi Miki, who was looking at documents, heard the laughter and thought to herself that Akizuki Makoto was quite capable, managing to make the arrogant and sharp-tongued man so happy.

"Ah, youth is truly something..."

She sighed inwardly, pretending not to hear the laughter, and continued looking at the documents.

Miki Takahashi describes herself as an intellectual, mature, older woman.

Naturally, she wouldn't be so tactless as to disturb them and ask them to keep quiet.

Anyway, there are only the three of them in the infirmary now, so it's good for them to make a fuss and let her have some fun and experience this naivety.

As Miki Takahashi reminisces about the beauty of her innocent youth, behind the curtain, Makoto Akizuki, under hypnosis, is already in a state of heightened arousal.

He couldn't understand how Takahashi Miki could remain unmoved when Shiraishi Rin was laughing so loudly.

"Finally, I've found my chance. Let's see who can save you this time."

Shiraishi Rin sneered, sat up in bed, looked down at Akizuki Makoto, and questioned, "What's your relationship with that Shiina guy?"

"friend."

Akizuki Makoto responded uncontrollably, his body trembling slightly.

Although the resistance was higher than the last hypnosis session, it didn't seem to have a significant effect, meaning the resistance was stronger.

"friend?"

Shiraishi Rin raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised by the answer.

"So what did you do after you left the barbecue restaurant last night?"

"Eat ramen."

"That's all?" "That's all."

"..."

Shiraishi Rin was starting to suspect that something had gone wrong with the hypnosis.

They left together in that atmosphere, and nothing actually happened; they just went to eat ramen together.

Unconvinced, she asked again, "Did you have a relationship with Shiina? Or kiss her or something?"

"No... there isn't any."

Qiu Yuecheng clenched his teeth and squeezed out his answer word by word, veins bulging on his forehead.

Although such a valiant resistance is futile, he would never give up the fight; wouldn't that be pure evil?
"Is your relationship really that innocent?"

Now, Shiraishi Rin was genuinely surprised. She already knew about the so-called Cinderella and Prince Charming story between Shiina Maki and Akizuki Makoto, so she believed that even if they weren't dating, their relationship was at least ambiguous.

It is highly likely that Shiina Maki has already given herself away and had a relationship with Akizuki Makoto, or at least kissed him.

"Why are you so tired today? What happened last night?"

Shiraishi Rin frowned and asked a question she absolutely shouldn't have asked.

"..."

Akizuki Makoto did not answer, his unfocused gaze instantly darkening, subtly revealing a chill.

He pursed his thin lips so tightly that they turned white and even broke.

A faint, rusty, bloody taste lingered between my lips and teeth.

Akizuki Makoto managed to resist the instinctive urges brought about by hypnosis.

Because this is the only question he absolutely does not want to answer, and absolutely cannot answer.

"Ok?"

Shiraishi Rin looked at Akizuki Makoto with surprise, not understanding why he was reacting as if he wanted to kill someone.

So she asked again, "I'm asking you, why are you so tired today? What happened?"

"I didn't...sleep well."

Akizuki Makoto struggled against the urge to give a truthful answer, responding with his own will, word by word.

If he didn't respond, Shiraishi Rin would probably keep asking endless questions, and he wasn't confident he could resist the effects of hypnosis indefinitely.

"Hey~"

Shiraishi Rin revealed a teasing smile, pressing on relentlessly, "What happened that kept you from sleeping well?"

If Akizuki Makoto is so reluctant to answer this question, then the answer must be quite interesting.

"..."

But Akizuki Makoto pursed his lips and did not respond, only staring intently at Shiraishi Rin.

"Tell me, why didn't you sleep well? What happened?"

"..."

"You—"

Just as Shiraishi Rin was about to ask again, she suddenly noticed a trickle of crimson blood seeping from the corner of Akizuki Makoto's mouth.

Upon seeing this, she was stunned, then her face darkened, and she smacked her lips hard.

"Tch, this is the first time I've seen this. Are you that unwilling to answer?"

"..."

Qiu Yuecheng remained silent, his cracked lips constantly oozing blood, demonstrating his determination.

At this point, Shiraishi Rin gave up asking him that question, so as not to waste precious hypnosis time.

"Then do what you didn't finish last time: kiss my feet and swear allegiance to me."
