Chapter 44 Oreo Cookies, Take Off!
The architecture of Tokyo Jujutsu High School is similar to other places in the world of Jujutsu. To put it nicely, its style is quite simple and elegant. To put it more practically, it seems to be out of touch with modern society.
The exteriors of various buildings are covered with climbing plants, moss grows in dark and damp corners, and many parts of the buildings are made of wood. Thanks to this, you can feel cool even without air conditioning in the hot summer. But at the same time, the wood emits a strong smell when it gets damp.
Others didn’t know, but Kanda Kanon sniffed and felt a little nauseous.
In the dim corridor, a girl in a slim-fitting uniform and a dog were peering furtively at the door of the infirmary.
In the infirmary that smelled of disinfectant, the blond boy lay quietly on the bed. His shirtless upper body was wrapped in bandages and his lower body was covered with a white blanket, so she couldn't see what it looked like.
The boy had his eyes closed, with white bandages wrapped around his forehead and white gauze on his left cheek. His breathing was steady and he looked like he was sleeping soundly.
The window was opened and a breeze blew in, dispelling some of the unpleasant smell in the room.
Kanda Kanon grabbed the door frame with one hand, half of her face poked out from behind the wall, secretly observing the boy in the house.
[Hmm... He's wrapped in so many bandages, it must be serious. He looks like he's in a lot of pain. What a strong child...]
If it were her, she would have been lying in bed crying. But Nanami Kento and other sorcerers, no matter how badly they were injured, they seemed to be fine and didn't say a word.
...Why does her tone sound like that of an old lady next door who is here to watch the fun? Nanami Kento, who had woken up a long time ago and closed his eyes to rest, complained secretly.
He turned over, the bed creaked, and Kanda Kanon drew her head back like a frightened rabbit.
The room was quiet, and it seemed that Kento Nanami had just turned over in his sleep.
After listening for a long time, a hand appeared on the door frame again, and Kanda Kanon quietly poked her head out.
Then...she met a pair of eyes.
The blond boy lay sideways on the bed, his deep eyes calm as he looked at her silently.
"...Hi." Kanda Kanon greeted awkwardly.
Nanami Kento: ...
He was silent for a moment, then supported himself on the bed and sat up. The boy was leaning against the head of the bed, with a thin quilt casually covering his legs. From the waist down, one could see that he was wearing uniform pants. He looked around, picked up his shirt from the side, and put it on slowly.
Of course, neither of them felt shy or anything. It's just that the upper body is half naked, so you should wear less when going to the swimming pool.
But I have to say that every sorcerer has a very pleasing figure. His muscular body has no excess fat and his muscles are perfectly defined.
[The future Nanami recorded in that book seemed to be described as having a super good body. Indeed, we can see some signs now. 】
Kanda Kanon admired the beautiful scenery and praised it in her heart.
Nanami Kento paused for a moment, then buttoned his shirt faster.
After getting dressed, he asked, "What's the matter?"
The black-haired girl standing at the door of the infirmary suddenly became shy, twisting a strand of hair with her slender fingers, and her usual arrogant attitude towards him disappeared.
She seemed to have made up her mind. She stopped looking around and looked at him steadily, her beautiful peach blossom eyes full of determination.
"Of course I'm here to thank you!" Kanda Kanon raised her head deliberately as she spoke, her voice rising a few notches, and two blushes appeared on her face. "Although you're just a commoner, you saved my life, and I'm not an ungrateful person."
"Be thankful. I will take care of you until you recover!" Kanda Kanon put her left hand on her waist, raised her right hand and pointed at him with her index finger.
Well, she has the air of a tsundere young lady. It would be even more like that if she had blond hair and twin ponytails.
Everything has a limit. She acted like an arrogant and brainless young lady before, but now she has suddenly changed her face, which is quite scary.
Anyway, they are all young ladies. There is only one word difference between tsundere and arrogant. There is no difference... probably!
[Yoshi, this way they won’t suspect that I have changed my core.] You know what, this is more fun to act than that brainless image. 】Kanda Kanon was very pleased with herself. With her acting skills, she would become a movie queen if she ventured into the entertainment industry in the future.
...That's not necessary. Nanami Kento reluctantly lifted the quilt and prepared to get out of bed.
After Ieiri Naoko's treatment and a night of recovery, although he was now wrapped in many bandages, it was only because he had not had time to take them off.
Since she wants to act, let her do it. Although this kind of compensation is totally unnecessary for him, he would probably feel uncomfortable if he didn't let her do it.
It would be better to listen to her at a time like this, since he is almost fully recovered anyway. Nanami Kento thought about it and was about to stand up, but the next second Kanda Kanon's shout made him sit down again.
"Wait, don't move!" Kanda Kanon stretched out five fingers and shouted.
As she spoke, she quickly walked to the door and walked in dragging something.
"…What is this?" Nanami Kento's eyes twitched.
Kanda Kanon put her hands on her hips proudly and said, "This is a wheelchair that I found in the nursing home. It's still usable!"
It must be said that Gojo Satoru destroyed half of the nursing home, but the place where the abandoned wheelchairs were placed was still intact.
Before leaving, she finally found a usable one. After cleaning and repairing it, she could still use it normally.
[Whoever sees this will not say something about being thrifty! 】
...That’s not necessary! ! Nanami Kento started to have a headache.
"Come on, it's already this late, you must not have eaten yet, let's go to the cafeteria now!" Kanda Kanon patted the wheelchair enthusiastically, and when she saw that he didn't move, she snorted in understanding.
She pushed the wheelchair to the side of the bed, held one of his arms with both hands, and lifted it up with force, but Nanami Kento still sat steadily beside the bed without moving.
[…Damn it, he looks quite skinny, but why is he as heavy as a rock! 】
There was no way. Nanami Kento had such muscles for a long time. He was not short and had a lot of tendons. How could she lift it?
"Hey, you don't look like you need me to lift you up. Come on, do it yourself!" Kanda Kanon didn't let go of his arm and pulled him forward.
A pair of bright eyes were full of anticipation, and Nanami Kento couldn't bring himself to say no.
...Forget it. She means well. If I reject her now, I will disappoint her.
Nanami Kento stood up and obediently sat in the wheelchair, leaning on the back of the wheelchair. He had a blank expression and his eyes were a little dead.
"What do you want to eat? I'll pay for all your expenses today. You're welcome!" Kanda Kanon went around the wheelchair, held the armrests on both sides, gritted her teeth, and used all her strength to finally push the wheelchair.
Once the wheelchair was moving, less effort was required and Kanda Kanon's steps became much lighter.
"A normal set meal will do." Nanami Kento stepped on the pedal, tensed all the muscles in his body, trying to make himself lighter.
Fortunately, the infirmary was on the first floor, and Kanda Kanon pushed him out without much effort.
Today is a nice day. It is almost noon and the sun is shining brightly, making people feel warm.
[Speaking of which, it would be best for the patient to get some sun and calcium supplements, right? How about taking him to sunbath after dinner? 】Kanda Kanon pondered secretly, and her steps became faster and faster.
In the huge technical college, a petite and noble-looking girl was pushing a wheelchair and running at a fast speed.
"... Kanda classmate, after dinner I want to go back to the dormitory to rest, so please take me back to the dormitory later, thank you." Nanami Kento spoke quickly, if he didn't speak, he would really have to travel around the high school for a day in a wheelchair.
"That's true!" Kanda Kanon nodded in agreement, then pushed him even harder towards the cafeteria.
Others race cars, she races in a wheelchair.
Kento Nanami held the armrests on both sides tightly with his hands. The wind blew up his bangs, revealing a pair of eyes that looked like they had lost all hope in life. The feeling of being pushed on his back made him stick close to the back of the wheelchair, not daring to move.
He was now extremely grateful that the talent of being a sorcerer was extremely rare, and the number of students admitted to the technical high school every year could be counted on one hand.
At this time when there was a shortage of staff, the technical college was deserted and he did not meet anyone along the way, otherwise he would not have dared to think about how embarrassing it would be. I'm afraid it will go from being a man built in the seven seas to being a man nowhere to be seen in the seven seas.
Riding the wheelchair along the unobstructed road, the two soon arrived at the cafeteria entrance.
Kanda Kanon panted, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and let out a long sigh with a sense of accomplishment.
"Well, it's worthy of me!" Kanda Kanon pushed him to the dining table and went to serve food for the two of them.
Kento Nanami sat in a wheelchair with an expressionless face. If you look closely, his eyes were dull and lifeless, as if he looked a little dead.
He decided that starting tomorrow he would work harder to improve his strength and never get seriously injured in front of her again.
Once again, he really wants to live on Mars.
"... Nanami?"
The surprised voice made Nanami Kento turn around suddenly, and he saw Huihara Yu standing behind him with his pupils trembling.
"You, your injuries are so serious that you're in a wheelchair!" Huihara Yu ran over with a worried look on his face.
Nanami Kento began to have stomachache: "No, it's a long story, anyway I'm fine now."
"Huh? What are you talking about?" Kanda Kanon walked over with two plates in her arms.
One of the light-looking meals was placed in front of Nanami Kento.
She considerately handed him the cutlery, but looked at the bandage on his wrist thoughtfully.
"You want me to..." Kanda Kanon started to speak but Nanami Kento interrupted her immediately.
"No need!" Nanami Kento grabbed the chopsticks and said, "I can do it myself."
"Okay..." The black-haired girl seemed a little disappointed that she couldn't take care of the patient.
Huiyuan Xiong looked at the two of them at this time, then fell into deep thought and said hesitantly: "Nanami, you..."
Nanami Kento quickly interrupted the spell again: "It's not what you think!"
"Oh..." Huihara Yu went to get food with a puzzled look on his face.
Kento Nanami finally had his first meal of the day. The soft and glutinous rice tasted sweet and delicious, and the fried vegetables also had a unique flavor.
Kanda Kanon, who was sitting next to her, was eating absent-mindedly.
After hesitating for a long time, she still spoke carefully: "Why... did you save me?"
Nanami Kento glanced at her calmly and replied calmly, "I don't need a reason to save you."
Kanda Kanon opened her lips and looked at him in surprise: "But you might die!"
Nanami Kento sighed, put down his chopsticks, turned his head and looked at her seriously: "Teacher Yaga always says that there is no such thing as a sorcerer dying without regrets. But..."
"I don't think saving you will be something I'll regret."
The girl's throat seemed to be blocked by something and she couldn't make a sound for a long time.
Why is this happening?
Something that I had always believed in suddenly collapsed. Since I came into this world, I have seen all kinds of tragic fates and dark and twisted human hearts through books.
Kanda Kanon always felt that this was not the place she expected, and the people here were the type she didn't want to make friends with.
After knowing the tragedy of the future through this book, she wanted only to escape, and faced with danger she only wanted to protect herself.
But……
"Not just me, but also Gojo-senpai, Geto-senpai, and Haibara, I think everyone will protect you." Nanami Kento continued, "So, there's no need for you to be afraid. This was just an accident, and next time you don't need to complete any missions, just refuse them all like before."
Huihara Yu also nodded vigorously. To be honest, he was really scared to death this time.
If it happens again, my heart really can’t take it.
Kanda Kanon looked at them blankly, not knowing what to say.
[…Damn me. I actually wanted to watch these gentle and kind young men die. 】
However, the future recorded in the book is most likely not true. It is useless to tell them about it, and it will only disturb them.
[However, the various people recorded do match up, but if I were to directly say that there is something wrong with this person, how should I explain it? 】Kanda Kanon fell into a new round of entanglement.
And most importantly, she didn't know where those evil guys and cursed spirits were now.
I feel more and more that that crappy book is really useless! Kanda Kanon gritted her teeth secretly.
After the three of them finished their meal, Kanda Kanon obediently pushed Nanami Kento towards the dormitory.
"But why does Nanami have to sit in a wheelchair?" Haibara Yu was very curious.
Kanda Kanon said as a matter of course: "Since he's injured like this, of course he needs to use a wheelchair. This is common sense."
Common sense...? Huihara Yu scratched his head. He had been a sorcerer for too long and to be honest, he didn't quite understand anything.
But never mind, it looks quite interesting!
"That's true. I've never pushed a wheelchair before. Let me try it!" Huihara Yu raised his hand excitedly.
...Graybara! Veins bulged on Kento Nanami's forehead. He is not a toy!
"Alas!!"
A wheelchair racing competition was staged again in the huge technical college.
Haibara Yu pushed Nanami Kento and ran excitedly, while Kanda Kanon chased after them breathlessly.
Huihara Yu slammed on the brakes, turned his head to look at her and then at the wheelchair thoughtfully.
Then……
"Woohoo!!!" Duet between Haibara Yu and Kanda Kanon.
I saw Kanda Kanon standing behind a wheelchair where a person was sitting. She put her feet on the edge of the wheelchair, held the two armrests with her hands, and lay down on it.
Nanami Kento, with dead fish eyes, sat in a wheelchair, while Haibara Yu was pushing the handrail at the back, running back and forth quickly.
The three of them became Oreo cookies. Kanda Kanon in the middle and Haibara Yuu at the back were as excited as if they were in an amusement park, while Nanami Kento and the wheelchair completely became their toys.
Enough, the world of sorcery is really shit! Nanami Kento's desire to resign reached its peak.
Three people were having fun downstairs in the dormitory building, but a white-haired guy in a window upstairs looked unhappy.
"It's really strange that you would allow her to take care of Nanami." A certain weird Liu Haijun sneered.
"Humph." Gojo Satoru leaned on the window sill, supporting his chin with one hand. "If I don't let her go, she will definitely keep thinking about it. I don't want her to keep thinking about other men."
"Oh, right." Gojo Satoru suddenly frowned, "I changed my mind. I should speed up the disposal of those garbage."
Xia Youjie leaned against the wall and sneered, "It should have been like this a long time ago. There is something wrong with this incident. Although it is a special-grade cursed item, it will not grow legs and run away on its own. How could it appear there by such a coincidence?"
“Not only that…” Gojo Satoru turned his head, a cold look flashing in his eyes, “I suspect someone is targeting her.”
Xia Youjie frowned.
Does Gojo Satoru mean that this time we are going to go to Kanda Kanon?
How could that be? There is no reason to target her unless her ability is exposed.
But since her ability has been exposed, she should not be killed. Her value in life is obviously greater.
Geto Suguru couldn't figure out why, but no matter what, Gojo Satoru must have his reasons for saying that.
"I see. It seems necessary to go to the child's home." Xia Youjie laughed helplessly, "I still have to take care of the children. If you go, they will definitely be scared."
Gojo Satoru rolled his eyes at him and said, "Become the king of your children!"
"By the way, Jie, have you found any useful spell tools?" asked Gojo Satoru.
Xia Yujie shook his head, and then he raised his eyebrows and said complacently: "But I made a talisman."
He pulled out an ordinary-looking amulet from his pocket and threw it to Gojo Satoru.
Gojo Satoru pinched it with a complicated look in his eyes. His six eyes could clearly see what it was made of and what was placed inside.
"There is one of my cursed spirits living inside. When she is attacked by a life-threatening attack, the cursed spirit inside will come out to help her block it." Xia Yujie rubbed his chin, feeling impressed by his own talent.
“…It’s a bit disgusting.” Gojo Satoru curled his lips in disgust.
"……Hello!"
——————
At sunset, after playing all day, Kanda Kanon was humming a little tune as she walked towards her dormitory.
Although Nanami Kento said that he had recovered and didn't need to go tomorrow, she still felt that she should take care of him for a few more days.
It’s definitely not that she still wants to play!
"Come to think of it, I haven't seen Gojo Satoru all day today. It feels a bit weird." Kanda Kanon murmured to herself.
As the sky gradually darkened and Kanda Kanon was walking in the dim corridor, her ears moved.
"Kane, are you over there?" The voice of Geto Suguru came from the corner. Although it was a little strange, she still opened her mouth.
"I..." Before she could finish her words, a big hand covered her mouth from behind.
"Wuwuwu!" Kanda Kanon opened her eyes wide in horror and was pulled powerlessly into the back room by the hand.
"Shh!" A laughing voice sounded, accompanied by the sound of the door being locked.
Kanda Kanon stopped struggling.
Because this voice clearly belongs to someone with white hair. She raised her head and, as expected, saw Gojo Satoru's face.
"...Hana?" Geto Suguru's voice rang out in the corridor.
Standing in the empty corridor, Geto Xiayou's eyes swept across the door of a room.
...Has this guy forgotten that he can hear his thoughts?
No, that's not right.
The freshly baked filth made him instantly understand what was happening, and that someone did not hide, but instead spread his cursed power all over the surrounding area.
It's like marking your own territory and preventing others from intruding.
...Forget it, Geto Xiayou shook his head speechlessly. He didn't want to be dragged into this strange Shura field.
Geto Xiayou turned and left.
The footsteps were getting farther and farther away, but Gojo Satoru still didn't let her go. Instead, his big hands around her waist tightened even more.
"Woo woo!" Kanda Kanon patted the hand on her mouth, signaling him to let her go.
"Do you want me to let you go?" Gojo Satoru pinched her waist frivolously.
It felt a little itchy, so she twisted her body a bit and nodded quickly.
"You can let me go if you want." Gojo Satoru stretched out his voice, "Then tell me first, who are Shoyo and Kuroo who sent you the message?"
Kanda Kanon's body stiffened, and as he turned around, she saw clearly that this room was clearly hers.
Her cell phone, which was charging in the room, was placed casually on the bed by someone with the screen on.
Some of the messy beds showed that someone had been lying on them for who knows how long.
This bastard actually looked through the chat records. How shameless is he! Kanda Kanon’s eyes widened.
But then, she felt a chill on her back and a drop of cold sweat ran down her forehead.
When Gojo Satoru heard this, he didn't get angry but laughed instead. He lifted her up by the waist and walked into the house.
"It's okay, take your time to think about it, we still have one night~"
[What should I do? How should I explain this? Urgent! 】
