Chapter 105 The One I Want to Follow
"Gojo Satoru, I heard that a student you specially recruited to the technical high school is now missing. Is it true?"
A senior member who had calmed down began to question.
"It would be fine if they let a suspicious person who they had never met before enter the college, but now he is missing. Could it be that..."
"You didn't recruit the curse master's spy in here, did you?"
The news of Kanda Kanon's disappearance naturally reached the ears of the top management. After all, the students of the Tokyo school had been searching for her in a panic for a while because of her disappearance.
Naturally, someone with ulterior motives reported this information to his superiors.
Of course, the top brass didn't believe that some secrets of the academy were obtained within Lord Tianyuan's barrier.
They were not interested in Kanda Kanon's origins, where she was now, or whether she was alive or dead.
The reason why I mobilized so many troops today was just to find an excuse to blame Gojo Satoru.
"Do you know how serious the consequences will be if the confidential information of the High Commissioner or even the world of sorcery is leaked? You are jointly responsible for this matter, Gojo Satoru, how are you going to take responsibility?" Another senior official also followed suit and scolded.
"So that's how it is. You called me back just for these things?" Gojo Satoru understood. He raised his hand and lowered his sunglasses. His beautiful blue eyes looked around, and all the old people present were shocked.
"How boring! Are you guys very free? Who said Kanon is missing? She is following me well." After threatening for a while, Gojo Satoru continued to retort.
"What's your attitude? If that's the case, why don't you report it and let the students panic?"
"Heh." Gojo Satoru curled his lips and sneered, "I haven't violated any of the rules of the spell, so why should I report it to you?"
"You!" The old people were furious at his arrogant attitude.
"By the way, since you come to question me, I also have something to ask you." Gojo Satoru's voice became even colder, and the temperature in the room instantly dropped to freezing point.
"I received intelligence that there seems to be a traitor among you who is in contact with the curse master outside."
Gojo Satoru's words were like a bolt of lightning, making everyone present dizzy.
"How is this possible! What nonsense are you talking about!" A senior executive who was hiding behind a wooden screen finally couldn't sit still anymore and stood up and shouted loudly.
"If you don't want people to know, then don't do it. Do you think I would say such a thing without any evidence?" Gojo Satoru's firm attitude made everyone present doubtful. "Listen carefully, you'd better behave yourself and stop challenging my patience. Listen carefully, you stinky rat hiding in the dark, your good days are over."
"I will be responsible for the traitor. Of course, the arrest, interrogation and execution will begin after I submit the evidence." Gojo Satoru looked coldly at the old men who dared not breathe and said, "You can't escape now."
After saying that, he turned and left the room.
The story about the traitor was true, but Gojo Satoru saying that he had evidence was false. He said this just to lure the snake out of its hole.
As for how he knew there was a traitor, it all started when he went back to the college dormitory to get his clothes.
Gojo Satoru found a letter on the table in the dormitory. The letter was left by Kanda Kanon. Although it was not signed, the new content and his bank card indicated the owner of the letter.
In addition to thanking him and apologizing for his sudden departure, the content also included a bonus page.
This content surprised Gojo Satoru extremely. That's right, that page contained future events and information that were about to begin.
At the end of the letter, Kanda Kanon left a message.
[I'm sorry, teacher. I'm a cowardly weakling. Even though I received a lot of kindness and goodwill from you, I still chose to run away. After careful consideration, I still plan to tell you my biggest secret. If you trust me, the content of that page will help you. After all, you are different from me. You are a strong person. There must be a way to change. 】
[Thank you for your kindness and love. This is the only way I can repay you. 】
The last bit of frustration that Gojo Satoru felt about her leaving disappeared.
A piece of white paper is as light as a feather, but it carries her trust and feelings. Running away is not because I don’t like him, it’s just because I feel uneasy and cowardly.
"Yes, it's a love letter~" Gojo Satoru happily put it in his pocket.
Then he found a loophole in the restraints.
It can't be considered a loophole. If you think about it carefully, it is reasonable. That is the content of the constraint.
What is bound are all actions that would expose Kanda Kanon's technique, as well as the contents of the thoughts heard.
The future intelligence she proactively provided was not within the scope of the constraints. Of course, he couldn't reveal that the source of the information was Kanda Kanon.
There is a traitor named Zuosuo who is the mastermind among the top leaders, and this Hongmen Banquet is a good opportunity to catch him in the act.
According to Kanda Kanon's information, the man named Nozomi possesses the skill to possess a human corpse and resurrect it. The body of Geto Suguru, who died in the future, became a trump card in his hand.
In that case, there is no need for him to take action against Geto now. Although the incident involving the Panxing Sect yesterday caused a lot of commotion, fortunately, the gathering place was very remote and there were no residents nearby. Apart from those from the Panxing Sect, there were no other witnesses.
However, in case his cooperation with his past self fails, he still needs to be prepared for both situations.
Gojo Satoru ran out of the box of rotten oranges and prepared to go to the zoo. He couldn't let that brat take advantage of him again.
However, Gojo Satoru, who had just stepped out of the school gate, suddenly stopped and changed direction.
Because DK Satoru was already on his way back to the villa with Kanda Kanon.
"Humph, you're smart enough not to be exposed." Gojo Satoru clasped his hands together and grinned, "It doesn't matter if I'm exposed."
Gojo Satoru had never been worried when he sent the first-year students. They are all trustworthy companions, and with the bug-level restraints of Kanda Kanon, there will be no problem even if people know that two Gojo Satoru appear at the same time.
But the reason I kept it a secret was just to reassure Kanda Kanon.
at the same time--
The cursed spirit in the zoo was silently dealt with by Gojo Satoru. Although he is not as good as his future self, he is a genuine top-grade sorcerer.
He didn't even take a mere cursed spirit seriously. However, these future students of his gave him a headache.
"There's no other way, let's run away!" The young boy Gojo Satoru picked up Kanda Kanon with one hand and quickly fled the scene.
"Stupid teacher, where are you taking Kanon again!"
They had only been reunited for a few minutes, and they still didn't know why Kanda Kanon left, but now it seemed...
"So it was you who took her away? And you specially called us here to play a trick on us, you idiot!!!"
Zenin Maki's roars continued.
Zenin Maki gradually calmed down with the words of Panda and Inumaki that she didn't understand but were trying to comfort her.
However, only Yuta Otsutsuki, who could hear one's heart, knew the whole process.
"Yuta...I want to play with Kanon, too."
Rika's voice also reached Yuta Okkotsu's mind.
"Yeah...but it's okay, I'll be able to do it next time." Yuta Otsutsukoshi whispered to comfort him.
He was not lying, the appearance of the second Gojo Satoru gave him a premonition of something. Maybe a miracle will really happen next time we meet.
In a busy commercial street, a young boy was walking on the rooftop with a young girl.
"...Why are you running?" Kanda Kanon, who had not dared to say a word the whole time, finally spoke.
"Because you don't want to expose my existence." The young man holding her replied calmly, his flat voice seemed as if he didn't care at all.
But does he really not care? I always feel...
"I'm sorry, Gojo-kun...Satoru-kun you don't have to worry about me."
Her conscience ached after not seeing her for a long time, and Kanda Kanon turned her face away guiltily.
"If you weren't my girlfriend, who would care about you?" Gojo Satoru rolled his eyes at her. "You should really feel honored. You're the first person who can make me do this."
"Hehe." For some reason, Kanda Kanon was a little happy.
She likes being treated special.
"...Do you think I'm praising you?" Gojo Satoru pinched her face in anger.
It was already dusk when they returned to the villa. When they opened the door, they saw the figure of a white-haired man.
"Hey, are you two having fun behind my back?" 27 Wu said dimly.
[……Why do you say that!] 】Kanda Kanon broke out in a cold sweat.
"I'm very happy, what's wrong?" DK Wu was not afraid at all and raised his chin proudly.
[This is strange. Did I understand it wrongly? Didn’t they ask me to follow Xiao Wu? Still angry that I shouldn't have left the villa! Damn it, men’s hearts are as unpredictable as the sea! 】
A good show is going on in the living room of the villa.
Desperate wife, angry husband and... arrogant third party (?)
"Kane, you have to learn to refuse things you don't want to do. I'll teach you later..." 27 Satoru narrowed his eyes and said Kanda Kanon, but his eyes were looking at a shameless DK.
The man's attitude, acting like a legitimate wife, made DK Wu's forehead veins throb.
"Oh!" Seeing that a big battle was about to break out, Kanda Kanon quickly spoke up and sighed exaggeratedly, "I sweated a lot outside in such a hot day. I feel smelly. I'm going to take a shower first!"
After saying that, she fled the scene like a 100-meter sprint.
[You must be kidding! I don’t want to be dragged into this weird Shura field! 】
…
The two people who were left behind looked at each other.
"Is there anything else? If not, I'm going to take a shower too." DK Wu said coldly with his hands in his pockets.
"...Let's not talk about this for now. I do have something else to do." 27 Wu rummaged in his pocket and took out an envelope. "Oh, I took the wrong one. This is it."
But then he put the envelope back and took out another folded piece of paper.
As DK Wu took the paper, he asked casually, "It's rare that people still write letters these days."
"This is a love letter from Kanon to me." 27 Satoru replied with a smile.
"...Ah?" DK Wu frowned and looked at him, "How is that possible?"
"What's impossible? It's not something we just know that Hanane likes me. If you don't believe me, just take a look at the paper first." 27 Wu shrugged indifferently.
"Tsk!" DK Wu smacked his lips in annoyance and looked at the contents of the paper impatiently, "This is..."
His eyes kept moving as he looked at DK Satoru, and the more he looked at him, the more surprised he became.
"Is this the future that guy saw with the spell?"
……Um?
27 Wu’s eyes flickered when he heard this. Why could he say it? Was he not restrained?
No, that's impossible. Could it be...
Because he's the only one here?
This compulsory restraint prohibits external dissemination, but they are not outside each other. Although they are at different time points, they are still one person.
The conversation between them cannot be said to be directed to the outside world, after all, it is a conversation between themselves.
“I see. That’s easy then.” 27Wu curled his lips and smiled.
An hour had passed by the time Kanda Kanon finished her shower. After dawdling for quite some time, she thought they should have finished arguing by now.
Kanda Kanon carefully pushed open the door, and the two people inside also looked over when they heard the sound.
"You're so slow. I took a long time to finish washing before you came out." DK Wu sat cross-legged on the floor, complaining speechlessly.
27 Wu sat on the sofa with his legs crossed and waved at her: "Come here~"
The tone, as if coaxing a child, made Kanda Kanon suspicious.
[Strange, they are getting along so harmoniously together, and have they finally figured it out and stopped arguing? 】
Kanda Kanon sat next to 27 Satoru, while DK Satoru on the other side moved to her legs and leaned on the sofa cushion, with the two of them sandwiching her in the middle.
"I have a question. Do you want to become stronger and fight together, or retreat behind the scenes like Glass, or... do nothing in a safe rear area and be a useless person?" DK Wu suddenly asked.
"What do you mean?" The sudden question left Kanda Kanon confused.
"Well, that's up to me to decide what to do. Just choose what you like." 27 Wu rubbed her head.
The two people's expressions did not seem to be joking. Kanda Kanon hesitated for a moment and asked, "The one that can help me live longer?"
If she had to choose, she would definitely choose the one who could live longer.
"I will let you survive to the end no matter what. As long as I am here, I will ensure that you will not come to any harm." DK Wu did not hesitate at all. The boy tilted his head with no special emotion on his face, as if he could fulfill this promise as a matter of course.
“It’s only right as long as I’m here.” 27 Wu retorted loudly.
“That means the same thing.” DK Wu retorted unwillingly.
"Kane wants to be by my side, how can that be the same thing."
"...Tsk." DK Wu pursed his lips in dissatisfaction.
"So, what do you want to choose?" The white-haired man sitting next to her came closer, and the warmth from his body was transferred to her.
Her heart began to feel hot and Kanda Kanon felt a little dazed.
What to choose?
Can I choose?
I have not been blessed by God since I was born, and fate always likes to play tricks on me. I have been thinking for a long time, why am I always the unlucky one, and why everything I cherish disappears as easily as quicksand.
After coming into this world, I became more convinced. Fate will not favor me even if I struggle with all my might, because the world will not reward you just because you are a kind and good person.
But the reality is just the opposite. The harm lasts for thousands of years, and this is especially true in this world. The noose that has lived for a thousand years, and the curse king that has not been destroyed for a thousand years. No matter how strong a good person is, he cannot defeat the evil one if he has a weak spot.
The Gojo Satoru in front of us is the best example.
But even so...
I will definitely choose a good person. 】
Living is not the goal, protecting the "pure land" that is most precious in her heart is what she wants. And the kind people who do good things without asking for anything in return are the type she values the most.
Because she was raised by such a person.
"After all the twists and turns, I still can't defeat you, Satoru." The smile on Kanda Kanon's face was very complicated, and seemed relieved.
Just having powerful strength can indeed make people surrender, but it cannot shake a person's heart. At least she will not surrender. No matter how many times she will find a way to escape.
But Gojo Satoru is different.
Perhaps only someone like Gojo Satoru, who possesses both power and humanity, can make people follow him from the bottom of their hearts.
Good people never have a good ending, and kindness is never rewarded.
But at least, she wanted to cherish the unrequited kindness that was shown to her.
Then……
"Of course you have to choose to be a useless person who just eats and waits for death!" Kanda Kanon shouted solemnly, "So, my future is in your hands, ok?"
Kanda Kanon looked at them with burning eyes.
[If the endings are the same, of course you have to choose the easiest one. Only a fool would work hard and never complain. What's wrong with being a little waste! No, I am the most important person because I own the script! 】
"There is a problem." 27 Wu tapped her lips and emphasized again, "It should be handed over to you."
"Okay, okay, I'll leave it to you, I'll leave it to you!" Kanda Kanon comforted.
"Heh, why do you always want to be the only one to take all the benefits? Obviously, I'm the one who works the hardest on this plan!" DK Wu was dissatisfied.
"Okay, okay, it's you, it's you!" Kanda Kanon turned around and comforted the other one.
The two Gojo Satoru started bickering again.
【Was it a wrong decision to follow them...】
Kanda Kanon thought tiredly.
Let’s get along well, please!
