Chapter 48: Ming Shen Eternal 24
The Department of Curse Directors is rotten to the core - this is an indisputable fact in the world of curse.
Except for the high-ranking officials who are at the center of power and are complacent about themselves, and their successors, almost no sorcerer thinks that "joining the General Manager's Office" is a good job.
As the most fair and strict organization in the world of magic, and the one that should be respected the most, they are truly a group of geniuses to have damaged their reputation to this extent.
The old men are old and it is inevitable that they are confused in their work. It is indeed time for them to retire and go home to enjoy their old age.
Fortunately, this opportunity is coming soon.
Xingye Wang picked up the teacup, and in the middle of the light green tea, a small tea leaf stem stood upright.
This means "good luck" in Japanese tradition.
Once he successfully recovers the [Jail Gate], Sakaguchi Ango will extract the memories on it, and the supernatural secret service departments in various places will unite and use this as important evidence of "the General Administration's collusion with the enemy" to demand that the government dismiss the current senior management and take away most of the cursed tools originally under the control of the General Administration and distribute them to the subordinate supernatural users.
By then, the power to exorcise the cursed spirits will be strong, and the General Manager's Office will be cleansed without bloodshed.
This is the deal between Taneda Santoka and Hoshino Nozomi.
The kind bald officer only thought that Lei Dianying agreed to his request in exchange for the authority to mobilize surveillance, but he didn't know that the other soul in front of him also had his own little selfish thoughts.
...In this way, even if it cannot be achieved overnight, it can reduce the obstacles on Gojo Satoru's ideal path; at the same time, it will not come to the point of fighting, and let Gojo Satoru be labeled as "cruel" and "cold-blooded" - although the Six-Eyed God Child probably doesn't care about these reputations.
I'm sure the guys in the general manager's office can handle this kind of good luck and will be overjoyed.
Hoshino Nozomi put down the tea silently.
With a "bang" sound, the expensive blue and white porcelain hit the long wooden table, and the sound echoed in the silent conference room for a long time.
The top brass remained silent.
Both sides of the long table were filled with familiar faces from the last meeting. At this moment, they dared not breathe, for fear that if they breathed heavily, they would be noticed by Lei Dianying.
No wonder they are so cautious.
The mountain that was split in two still stood quietly behind, issuing a silent warning, like a sharp sword hanging over everyone's head.
The last time lightning struck the mountain, the residual power of the thunder also affected the senior executives of the directorate nearby.
The violent purple lightning surged like a wave, slamming into everyone, sending them to the hospital despite their weak bodies. If it weren't for the reversal technique performed by Ieori Shoko, most of them would be lying in bed instead of sitting in a conference room.
Yes, a meeting.
After a few days, this woman came again!
She has another meeting!!
She totally treats this place as her own territory!!!
The Director of Spells nearly broke his teeth.
He thought carefully and made sure that he had not provoked her recently, but the thunder movie was already here, and even if he couldn't figure it out or was dissatisfied, he had to be careful to make up for it.
——And he gave up his own seat and respectfully invited Raidenying to sit down.
Looking at the others, they were all watching his nose and pretending not to notice the cold sweat on his head. The Director of Curse had no doubt that even if Raiden cut him in half with a knife right now, these guys would not move at all.
The Director of Spells said stiffly, "Excuse me, is it that the tea is not to your liking?"
"That's not the case." Xingye Wang stroked the wall of the cup.
He was distracted just now and didn't control his strength well for a moment. It wasn't the tea that had problems.
He didn't know Thor's standards, but in Xingye Wang's opinion, the tea was very good.
After Lei Denying answered, the Director of Jujutsu became even more rigid.
The "bang" sound just now was like a heavy hammer, hitting their fragile hearts hard. Lei Dianying had a dull expression since he came in, and at that time he was even more expressionless, cold as ice, and seemed to be in a very bad mood.
It's not the tea that has the problem, it's the people present that have the problem.
...Who is the blind man who provokes her in private again? ! Can you please stand up for yourself and not let him bear the pressure here!
The Director of Spells felt a stomachache.
He carefully observed Raidenkage's expression and noticed that her gaze stayed on someone for a little longer. The Director of Curses looked in the direction and found that it was the old guy who was dragged in by Raidenkage.
He thought about it for a moment, and then his memories came back.
He remembered that this guy had been ignorant of the world and treated Ray's movies coldly, using vulgar language that was simply outrageous.
The Director of Curses' technique was similar to space teleportation. He raised his hand and a swirling black hole appeared under the man's feet, instantly swallowing up the tall figure and throwing him away.
"Ms. Ying, I have taken care of it."
Lei Dianying came back to his senses: "?"
What did you deal with?
She took a few seconds to react, blinking slowly to make sure the man had disappeared.
... Never mind. It doesn't matter if he's missing.
Lei Movie retracted his gaze.
Seeing her frosty face finally warm up, the Director of Curses breathed a sigh of relief.
Lei Dianying: "This meeting is to discuss something with you all."
No one answered, and everyone's eyes twitched.
She also said last time that she had something to discuss, but as soon as they objected, Lei Dian Cinema immediately provided a one-stop service of "splitting tables, splitting houses, splitting mountains", and almost chopped them off together.
The "discussion" she mentioned had been automatically transformed by the Directorate General into an order that could not be violated.
"Lift the wanted warrant for Nanako and Mimiko."
"This does not conform to..."
"Um?"
“…It just lacks a reason.”
"Reason?" she repeated softly.
Just at this moment, a message flashed on the phone screen.
Ieiri Nishiko: [Hi~]
There were some surprises with the Ray movie.
She would not get hurt, and even if she did, she could replace parts by herself, so her relationship with the school doctor was mediocre. They had only met a few times, let alone sent messages or greeted each other.
Ray Movie: [What's up?]
Ieiri Shoko: [I heard from Satoru that you went to the General Manager's Office, right? I don't know if it's too late to say this now. Anyway, if possible, please don't hurt them anymore. Treating them one by one is really tiring and troublesome. This is extra work and takes up my time for drinking.]
Raiden paused.
She had no intention of taking action, and the general manager's office had performed well today, but why did they all think that she would take action over a disagreement?
Although Lei is fascinated by martial arts, he is not a reckless and warmongering person.
She felt that she was innocent, so she replied with six points: [……]
Ieiri Naoko: [You can't just beat him to death.]
Ieiri Shoko: [But then I won’t have to work overtime (smile.jpg)]
Lei Movie: "..."
She glanced at the Curse Director standing beside her. He gasped in a low, mournful voice and said urgently, "No reason is needed! We will remove it immediately!"
Raiden felt that there was something wrong with his image.
She admitted that she was a little stubborn and inflexible, and might have some minor shortcomings that she hadn't noticed, but she was definitely not a moody person who would kill innocent people - although these guys were not innocent.
She suddenly didn't want to stay here any longer, so she said "hmm" and left the director's office.
On the way, Lei Dengying sent a message to Gojo Satoru to tell him that everything went well. Gojo Satoru's reply was still not serious, Lei Dengying picked and chose, and finally found some useful information.
——Principal Yega, Maki and others have already learned about Nanako and Mimiko's situation. After a short informal meeting, they decided to temporarily accept the two of them and let them live in the high school as students.
Although the high school and the Pansei Cult had fought a brutal war because of Geto's ideals, all the hatred had dissipated with the death of Geto, and now they were able to get along with each other in a relatively peaceful manner.
On the way back to the technical college, Lei Dianying killed a few fly heads and received inexplicable but sincere praise from passers-by.
Lei Dianying's brows relaxed slightly.
When he returned to the high school, the sun was setting and the fiery clouds in the sky formed a gorgeous haze. Lei Dianying ran into Ieiri Shoko.
"Yes." The school doctor with dark complexion waved his hand.
"Good evening," Lei Dianying paused, then said, "I didn't do anything."
"Ah, is that so?" Jialiu Naoko laughed twice, pinched the cigarette between two fingers, and after noticing Lei Dianying's retreating action, she quietly put it away, "It's really hard work, those troublesome guys are not easy to deal with."
"It's not bad."
Ieiri Naoko smiled again: "Yes, I don't think they dare to do anything to you - at least for now."
"If you get hurt, remember to come to me. Don't force yourself. The reversal technique will be quick."
She said, and stepped forward.
"Please wait a moment."
"Um?"
"...No, nothing, I just feel a little weird."
"What's so strange about that?"
"You don't seem like a talkative person. I've been at the college for a few days, but you haven't told me this before."
Ieiri Shoko stopped and looked at Lei Dianying from a distance of several meters.
The warm orange glow fell on Lei Dianying's hair, the purple was as rich as ink, and the halo at the edge blurred the outline of the woman and the boundary between people and everything else, making her look like smoke, swaying and uncertain, and would dissipate into the air in the next second.
"The reason..." Ieiri Naoko shrugged, "Maybe it's because I'm also infected?"
"Infect?"
Ieiri Naoko didn't explain further. It was time to get off work, and she had some free time, so she wanted to enjoy life.
She waved her hand with her back to Lei Dianying as a farewell, leaving Lei Dianying alone in confusion.
But soon, Lei Dianying's doubts were answered.
"...welcome party?" Lei Dianying asked in confusion, "At this time?"
She looked at Gojo Satoru disapprovingly.
It doesn't matter about the other people who don't know the truth, but Gojo Satoru knows the secret of the rebirth of the cursed spirit just like her. Under such circumstances, why doesn't he seize the time to rest and train, but instead holds a welcoming party for her?
"Yes, a welcome party," Gojo Satoru confirmed. "This is a high school tradition. Whether students or teachers, everyone gets together to celebrate when they enter school or start work."
Lei Dianying looked at the others.
Zenin Maki, Inumaki Satoru, Panda, Nanako, and Mimiko all nodded in agreement.
Lei Dianying: "Didn't you two just arrive at the college?"
Mimiko froze, and Nanako coughed, "I heard about it from Master Geto before. Miss Ying, what Gojo Satoru said is true."
Lei Films was skeptical.
"Gojo-sensei never lies!" Gojo Satoru boasted, "But it's really sad that Xiaoying doesn't trust me... I feel like my heart is about to break..."
"Okay, okay," Lei Dianying sighed, "I get it."
"I'm glad you understand! Have a good rest and then have a great time, okay?" Gojo Satoru smiled and patted her shoulder.
"……good."
She really couldn't beat this group of people, especially the eccentric and extremely self-centered Gojo Satoru.
The time of the welcome party was finally set at 8 o'clock the day after tomorrow, and all expenses would be paid by Gojo Satoru.
Time flies.
That evening, seven o'clock.
Ray Movie is ready to go.
Gojo Satoru was afraid that she would get lost, so he asked Goju to come out from the scene to lead the way for her. Lei Denying accepted this unnecessary care and walked on the street with the silent Goju.
However, at this moment——
"Beautiful lady."
A voice as soft as a feather, as sweet and frivolous as melted honey sounded behind me.
Lei Dianying turned around and saw someone he didn't expect.
Dazai Osamu.
He was still dressed elegantly, with his bolo tie neatly tied, the sapphires on it clean and transparent, and the hem of his sand-colored windbreaker swaying in the breeze. His exposed wrists and neck were still wrapped with several layers of bandages, white as clouds, without any bloodstains, but still adding a bit of gloom and weirdness to him.
This young man, who exudes the feeling of "I'm not normal" from head to toe, is smiling lightly, with undisguised tenderness in his iris-colored eyes.
He bent down and raised his hand, holding Lei Dianying's fingertips, and said with a look of deep affection, "Your figure is so moving. Just standing here, you are as noble and beautiful as cherry blossoms. It seems that I have seen the goddess in the sky. My heart has been shot by Cupid's golden arrow, and I can't help falling into your beautiful eyes like wisteria flowers!"
Lei Movie: "..."
Perhaps her silence was seen as consent, so Dazai Osamu pressed the issue further, "Excuse me, are you willing to die with me?"
Ray Movie: “???”
