Chapter 29 The Last Night
As night falls, the moon hangs high in the sky and stars twinkle in the sky. In big cities, the night is not dark, and the streets are full of neon lights.
The transparent floor-to-ceiling windows in the bedroom provide a clear view of the outside scenery. The hustle and bustle of the commercial street and its gorgeous lights can be seen clearly in the distance, but nearby there are lush green plants lingering around.
The sound of cicadas echoes the summer, and moonlight shines through the window onto Sleeping Beauty in her bed.
The black hair fell on the pillow like silk. The girl's thick and curly eyelashes trembled a few times and slowly opened.
[…Huh?] When did I fall asleep in bed? 】Kanda Kanon blinked her dry eyes. In the dim room, she could barely see the outlines of things with the help of moonlight.
She moved her body confusedly, trying to sit up from the bed, but...
A hand made her freeze instantly.
Kanda Kanon suddenly turned her head and raised her hand, and another hand that did not belong to her was raised up.
[What’s going on!] ! ! 】
Kanda Kanon's eyes almost popped out.
"Hmm..." Gojo Satoru squirmed on the bed, "I'm so sleepy, let's continue sleeping..."
The hoarse voice accompanied by a sticky nasal sound made Kanda Kanon's ears numb for a moment.
[Who can sleep like this!] 】
"Wu, Wu-kun, why are you here?" Kanda Kanon was so scared that her tongue stuck out.
"Hmm?" Gojo Satoru raised his head from the bed and rubbed his eyes sleepily. In the darkness, his bright eyes were particularly shining.
"You forgot, you coaxed yourself to sleep." Gojo Satoru yawned, but still did not let go of his hand, instead he pulled it tighter.
The white-haired boy had a smile in his eyes and used his free hand to tidy up his messy hair. But he didn't notice that there were large red marks on his fair face due to his sleeping posture. He had just woken up and no longer had his usual frivolous and wild look. He looked much softer.
"Sorry, maybe I'm a little tired lately..." Kanda Kanon had just finished speaking when she felt something was wrong.
So what does this have to do with us holding hands and sleeping together? 】
The smile in Gojo Satoru's eyes became even bigger. He smiled playfully and said, "I didn't expect you to be so clingy. You held me tightly and wouldn't let go."
"You really like me~" Gojo Satoru said half-truthfully. She really didn't let go, after all, the person had fallen asleep.
[…So I was the first to take action?] 】Kanda Kanon’s pupils trembled.
She criticized herself in her heart. Although she liked handsome men and beautiful women, couldn't she be patient at a time like this?
Regret, sadness, and all kinds of negative emotions flooded into her heart. In Gojo Satoru's eyes, the cursed energy in her body became unstable.
...Do you really hate having to contact him? Gojo Satoru curled his lips, feeling worried about his future.
"Of course, you know, I came to the technical high school for you. Don't you know my feelings?" Kanda Kanon said subconsciously.
People's habits are formed in 21 days, and Kanda Kanon is no exception. When faced with difficult choices, people will subconsciously return to their comfort zone, and they will subconsciously choose the side that made them feel most secure.
Although Gojo Satoru's change of heart towards her was unexpected, breaking off the engagement was not impossible.
Just start over and let him know that his imagination was wrong and that she was an extremely bad woman.
[Let me think about it, it’s not bad to be a two-faced person who pretends to be pitiful because of his change on the surface, but bullies others viciously behind his back. 】
[Those brainless novels and comics I read are still quite useful. Then if she accidentally reveals it, Gojo Satoru will hate her to death, hehe! 】
Whether she wants to save them or not has nothing to do with whether she runs away or not. If she can't beat them, she can just leave them some hints before running away.
...Can you please read something nutritious? His train of thought is too bizarre. Gojo Satoru was speechless.
But Kanda Kanon had only come into contact with people from the Kanda family before, and now she has only come into contact with them, so it can be said that she knows nothing about creatures like sorcerers.
Such a plan was doomed to fail.
Gojo Satoru stood up and loosened his hand. The soft and delicate touch disappeared, and he actually felt a little lost.
He was like an idiot, being "played" by her in the palm of her hand both in the past and now.
Turning on the light in the room, he opened the door and walked out.
"You haven't washed your clothes yet? Wait for me for a moment, I'll go downstairs and buy you a set." Gojo Satoru didn't look back.
Although the lights were not on just now, his eyesight was extremely good. He could see that someone's collar was a little open, revealing dazzling white.
"Okay, thank you Wu-kun~" Kanda Kanon returned to her usual self, her upturned peach blossom eyes filled with joy and love.
Gojo Satoru, however, was not happy. He paused and left without looking back.
The more you try to conquer it, the more your progress slows down. This seemingly docile cat is not friendly at all.
Their outstretched hands seemed like a threat to her, who was already feeling uneasy.
Sure enough, it is necessary to make her have more confidence in them, so let's start with this death flag and let her know that the future she sees can be changed.
Gojo Satoru felt much better, and he walked outside without caring about his relatives.
"Hey~ You finally woke up."
Gojo Satoru looked up when he heard the voice and saw the uninvited guests in the living room. The corners of his mouth drooped instantly and he grinned in disgust: "Why are you here?"
"It's your fault for sleeping so soundly. It's time for dinner, so of course you have to eat on time." Xia Yujie tasted the sukiyaki soup in the dish and nodded with satisfaction.
"Yeah, eating is important!" Huihara Yu also echoed.
"Huh? If you're hungry, just go to the restaurant and eat. Why are you here?" Gojo Satoru was like a wild beast whose territory was invaded, his entire body standing on end.
"What are you talking about? With our relationship, how can I leave you guys alone to eat alone?" Xia Yujie replied in an exaggerated tone.
"Here you go." Before Gojo Satoru got angry, Geto Xia threw the bag beside him to him, "I washed your clothes for you, no need to thank me."
Although the hotel provided underwear, the only other clothing provided was a bathrobe. However, the room is equipped with a washing machine and a dryer, which is very convenient.
"Where's Kanon? Is she not awake yet?" Xia Yujie continued to cook.
"I'm awake." Gojo Satoru changed his clothes in the living room. "I'll go buy some clothes later."
Geto Xiayou understood. Although the facilities are complete, after all, people are of the opposite sex, and it would be too bad to touch their washed clothes casually.
However, he had already thought of this possibility, and Xia Youjie raised the corners of his lips with pride.
He put down the spoon, picked up another bag, and walked to the bedroom door.
"Knock knock!" Xia Youjie knocked on the door, "Kane, I bought some clothes that are perfect for you."
As he said that, he opened the door a crack and put the bag in before Gojo Satoru could dash over.
After closing the door, he held up Gojo Satoru's fist with one hand, and said loudly, "Come out to eat after you've changed. We've prepared a delicious Sukiyaki set meal tonight!"
There was silence in the room and no one responded, but both of them heard her tiptoeing footsteps.
I can even imagine her secretive movements in my mind.
"Pfft!" Geto Xiayou couldn't help laughing. This kid really knew nothing about the five senses of a sorcerer.
While Kanda Kanon was changing her clothes, the four of them sat around the dining table.
"Speaking of which, where should we start?" Nanami Kento looked at the steaming pot and spoke silently.
It really proves the old saying that the eunuchs are anxious even if the emperor is not. The two most critical protagonists of this incident are still on a leisurely vacation.
"Hmm?" Gojo Satoru picked up a meatball and stuffed it into his mouth under the dissatisfied gaze of Xia Yujie. He replied vaguely, "Why are you still entangled in this?"
...Veins bulged on Kento Nanami's forehead. He was really fed up with these unreliable seniors.
“I’ve already figured out the answer a long time ago.” Gojo Satoru picked up the round sunglasses that came with the bag, put them on slowly, and covered his indifferent eyes.
"Of course we have to eliminate the threat at its source," said Gojo Satoru.
Xia Youjie nodded when he heard this: "Satoru is right, this is just a lack of intelligence."
It’s not scary at all now that we know it. The real threat is still to come... thought Xia Yujie.
"Although I don't quite understand, please feel free to tell me if you need anything!" Huihara Yu gave a thumbs up.
"You understand, Nanami." Gojo Satoru gave a cold smile, with a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
Nanami Kento understood and nodded solemnly.
To solve the problem from the root, we have to take action against the Panxing Sect.
After all, the person who had put them in such a mess was only Fushiguro Shino, a killer hired by the Bankei Cult.
On the other hand, as long as the Panxing Sect is prevented from hiring him, everything will be solved.
But Fushiguro Shigeki will still be a threat. The most crucial thing is that he has the Amenaiboko in his hand, which is a special-grade cursed tool that can affect spells. It is a very tricky thing for Gojo Satoru now.
"I felt like I've seen this guy somewhere before. I looked it up and found out that he must be the one from the Zenin family who has no cursed power, Tenyo Juuba." Gojo Satoru had a complicated expression. He never thought that he would fall for a guy without any cursed power.
Not only that, but he will also fall into the hands of his son again in the future. The specific situation is unclear, but what Kanda Kanon said is definitely correct.
Gojo Satoru's face became more and more uglier.
Ten and Jujutsu are not rare in the world of sorcery, but Fushiguro Shige is the most special one.
Because he has no cursed power at all, this is also the reason why he can enter Lord Tianyuan's barrier openly.
"But..." Nanami Kento thought of something and spoke hesitantly, "According to the rules of the spell, we can't attack ordinary people."
Although Panxing Sect is a religious group that worships Lord Tianyuan, its believers are all ordinary people.
"Capture the leader first." Xia Youjie only said this.
Although the followers of Panxing Religion are all ordinary people, according to his investigation, the high-level people there are related to the world of sorcery, so they cannot be called ordinary people.
The sorcerer's definition of this aspect is actually very ambiguous. As long as the rationality is found, nothing else matters.
Killing is not the only option to solve the problem.
Nanami Kento hummed to show that he understood, and then he asked, "Do you need us to help?"
"No, you just stay with Kanon to prevent those messed up people from contacting her." Xia Youjie shook his head. The two of them were enough to accomplish this task. Compared to this, Kanda Kanon is more important.
Hearing this, Nanami Kento and Haibara Yu nodded vigorously.
However, Nanami Kento still has some questions that he hasn't asked, such as...how exactly are these two seniors going to stop the Panxing Sect?
It can't be that he stole the money for hiring a killer, that's too outrageous, Nanami Kento sighed.
I hope nothing unexpected happens. If something unexpected happens... Nanami Kento lowered his eyes. He would have to take Kanda Kanon and Haibara Yu and leave the high school.
"So slow! Why hasn't she come out yet?" Gojo Satoru stared at the silent door in boredom.
"Ah..." Xia Youjie looked away, "Maybe he's shy."
"......?" Gojo Satoru narrowed his eyes suspiciously, leaned forward, and slapped the table, "What kind of clothes did you prepare for her?"
He knew that this awful, black-hearted fox was always secretly trying to kidnap his wife. He felt something was wrong before he heard the inner voice. When had he ever seen Geto Suguru so attentive to a girl?
No, I have to go and confirm it. What if it’s something that can’t be broadcasted? It would be bad. Gojo Satoru stood up quickly and strode towards the bedroom.
"Hana!" He yelled loudly and opened the door without thinking, "Are you okay...?"
Gojo Satoru's voice became lower and lower until it finally stopped.
“Swish, swish, swish——” Gojo Satoru rushed out quickly, covering his nose with his left hand, with red bloodshot eyes.
"Where's my cell phone!" Gojo Satoru shouted.
"Who knows." Xia Youjie's eyes flashed, and he quickly took out the camera in his hand from his pocket, turned on the camera, and aimed it at the girl who was slowly walking out of the bedroom.
"Click, click!" The flash light lit up and Xia Yujie took continuous photos at a rapid speed.
At this time, Gojo Satoru patted his shoulder with a serious look on his face and said, "Send me a copy later."
"Aren't we close friends?" Gojo Satoru's loud and clear voice was so powerful that, ignoring his previous words, it was quite touching.
"...Can you tell me what this is?" Kanda Kanon stood not far away with an expressionless face. If you looked closely, you could see the thick black mist in her eyes.
Kanda Kanon pointed at what she was wearing while facing someone who was patting her seriously.
Xia Youjie blinked innocently, raised his thumb and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes! Super cute dog pajamas, super suitable for you!"
Cuteness is justice, Geto Suguru once again affirmed this famous saying.
"It's so super cute. I want to raise one too!" The best one is the one in front of him, and a blush appeared on Gojo Satoru's face.
[Are there no more ordinary clothes? How can I go out like this? Two scumbags! ! ! 】
Countless # marks appeared on her forehead one after another. Kanda Kanon didn't think twice and picked up the water bottle at hand and threw it at him.
Geto Xiayou didn't dodge and was hit in the bull's eye, and he fell backwards to the ground.
"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha, you're too lame!" Gojo Satoru next to him laughed so hard that tears came out.
Then the next second, he was hit in the bull's eye by another water bottle and fell headfirst next to Geto Suguru.
Two people fell to the ground side by side, with big red bumps on their foreheads.
I have to say, these were two wonderful straight shots, and Kento Nanami applauded silently.
"Hahahahahahaha, what are you doing, seniors?" Huibara Yu was also very happy.
[Ah, Yabai, for a moment he was blinded by anger. 】After coming back to her senses, Kanda Kanon was at a loss as to what to do.
Gojo Satoru silently sat up from the ground, rubbed his forehead and said with emotion: "I underestimated you. I never thought that a fool like you has such talent."
[…Give me another water bottle, I’m going to strike this bastard out! 】Kanda Kanon thought with gritted teeth.
Nanami Kento, who was silent on the side, shook his head in amusement. The unreliable seniors were still useful. Kanda Kanon needed their casualness and silliness now.
After all, if two top-grade sorcerers couldn't even dodge Aquarius, then the sorcerer world would be doomed.
...No, whether you dodge it or not, you will be doomed sooner or later.
Nanami Kento stared with dead fish eyes, sincerely hoping that this curse-breaking world that only knew how to exploit students and was completely useless would explode soon.
Amen.
