Chapter 55: The Birth of God The cursed spirits in the shopping malls were gradually cleared...
The cursed spirits in the mall were cleared away one after another, and Suzuki Kawa sat in a chair in the corner in a daze.
He remembered the man he shot twice... He had seen that man before. He once met Ijichi who was sending an injured sorcerer to see Nozomi. He took a look at him and inexplicably remembered him.
People always remember some strange things inexplicably, and often forget some important things.
The blond boy sighed heavily.
Are those cursed spirits trying to resurrect Sukuna by constantly feeding Yuji Itadori his finger? Gojo-sensei didn't actually stop Yuji Itadori from devouring the finger. The so-called reprieve from the higher-ups remains a heavy burden.
Suzuki Kawa leaned back in his chair, folded his arms, and thought of something.
There was a finger, which was fed to Xiaobai.
But when Xiaobai was summoned by him again, he could speak by feeding his fingers, but he could no longer speak after being summoned.
But the system said that Xiaobai is still the same Xiaobai.
The blond boy pondered for a few seconds, then unconsciously brought his fingers to his mouth and took a bite.
A few resentful spirits not far away grumbled that this person was too unclean.
Suzuki Kawa: ...
He spat a few times, stood up angrily, and walked towards them: "By the way, where are the other two ghosts?"
Tera Takashi: "Hey, there's one still alive. Didn't Kyoka-san tear it apart?"
Takemura Kyoka lifted the hair from her temples and leaned forward: "I fed him to Xiaobai... Xiaobai seems to have disappeared."
The scene was eerily silent for a moment.
The old man pushed Takemura Kyoka and said, "I didn't even notice when you fed her."
The woman in kimono sneered: "Otherwise, what do you think the dog food I feed Xiaobai is made of?"
Terasaka said calmly, "So Miss Kyoka tore him into thin strips, then rolled them into balls and fed them to Shiro, pretending they were dog food."
Suzuki Kawa was curious about one thing: "Didn't he resist?" That person's brain has been alive for thousands of years, so he shouldn't be manipulated like this, right?
"Not really. He ran away when Ms. Kyoka tore him in half."
Takemura Kyoka snorted, "But only half of them escaped. The remaining brainless part is not something I can manipulate."
Suzuki Chuan touched his chin and said, "Mr. Geta's body is no longer in Tokyo. Where would he go? Would he escape to Yokohama to find his body?"
The work of removing the cursed spirits was almost finished. Fushiguro Megumi came over. He couldn't see Takemura Kyoka and the others, but he guessed something by seeing Suzuki Kawa talking to the air.
Suzuki Chuan saw him coming over, smiled brightly, waved at him, and immediately asked for help: "Keiko, let me use your phone."
The boy with the sea urchin hair took out his cell phone and gave it to him. Suzuki took it, recalled it, and dialed a number.
The call went on for a long time before it was connected.
The young man said in a bad tone: "Suzuki?"
Suzuki Chuan said casually: "Long time no see, Chuuya, did you miss me?"
A short, cold laugh came from the other end: "Ten million."
"What about the love we once shared through life and death?"
Nakahara Chuuya: "You talk too much nonsense, 20 million."
Suzuki Kawa was silent, only the sound of his shallow breathing could be heard.
"three--"
"make a deal!"
Suzuki Chuan readily agreed, fearing the price would soar to 30 million if he spoke too slowly. He said enthusiastically, "You keep the body for now. If it comes back alive, we can just take it away for a craniotomy."
Those are terrible words.
"Well, let me think about it. Next Thursday, I'll have someone pick me up."
"Next Thursday? No time."
"Next Friday." Suzuki Kawa compromised and changed the date.
There was silence for a while before someone slowly said, "Okay."
After hanging up the call, Suzuki Kawa returned the phone to his friend and looked at the messy first floor. Fortunately, most of it was empty space, so the store did not suffer too much damage.
Kugisaki Nobara pinched the last nail in her hand and turned to look at Itadori Yuji: "Are you okay after swallowing your finger?"
What happened just now was so sudden that Megumi Fushiguro had her back to them and didn't see it at all. However, Nobara Kugisaki was standing near Yuji Itadori and watched the whole thing.
Yuji Itadori touched his face and shook his head: "Sukuna didn't react. He didn't say anything after swallowing his finger."
Something is wrong. Normally, he would say a lot of sarcastic words.
"The old man is so quiet, he must be up to something." Suzuki Chuan walked over with his hands in his pockets and said. Since those cursed spirits wanted to resurrect Sukuna, he definitely couldn't let them succeed.
Fushiguro Megumi turned her head and glanced towards the entrance of the mall: "Once the purification is complete, let the police come in to clean up."
Kugisaki Nobara sighed, "What a wonderful Friday! I'm actually doing another mission."
In order to prevent any fish from slipping through the net, the few people decided to act separately and check the mall thoroughly, otherwise it would cause panic again.
The mall has an underground floor, and with four floors above ground, the first floor has been confirmed to be completely cleared, so one person is responsible for one floor.
Suzuki Kawa went to the top floor. He thought the basement was too dark and he was scared just thinking about it.
"It's four o'clock in the afternoon. We can go to KTV after we finish!" Before parting, Suzuki Kawa shook his mobile phone and the time was displayed on the screen.
It's a rare opportunity to have free time, so I wanted to play.
The top floor is mainly a high-end restaurant with complete facilities. People evacuated in a hurry and there was still uneaten food on the table. Suzuki Kawa looked around and found a chain Western restaurant that he had eaten at before.
"By the way, where did the guy with the scar on his mouth go?" He remembered that there was a newly unlocked character, but he was so concerned about the brain that he forgot about the other person, no, the ghost.
Terasaka: "He ran away on his own, saying he wanted to go watch the horse races."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "But he went to see Fushiguro Megumi specifically, just watching from afar. In the morning, when Fushiguro Megumi went to class, he watched for a while and then strolled away."
Takemura Kyoka described it in more detail: "He heard the girl call out Fushiguro's last name and looked at her for a while before leaving."
[Alas.] The system sighed softly.
【Why are you sighing?】 Suzukikawa was alert.
System: [You don't understand.] If it had a physical form, he would have silently poured himself a glass.
After confirming the top floor, Suzuki Kawa stood in the elevator and went downstairs. He happened to meet Kugisaki Nobara. The girl was standing not far from the elevator entrance, looking down at something.
Suzuki Chuan walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Hey, is there someone here?" Kugisaki Nobara pointed at the blood splattered on the ground, which did not look like it was caused by a curse spirit.
When she was dealing with the cursed spirit on the first floor, she didn't see what happened on the third floor, but she knew that Suzuki Kawa had fired a shot.
Suzuki Kawa also glanced at the pool of blood, without much reaction, and simply said, "Ah, about this, let the police handle it. As for the person... after he turned into a cursed spirit, I hacked him to death. Now there's nothing left."
Speaking of this, Suzuki Kawa frowned. This person is a sorcerer, but he is not sure whether he is from the General Directorate. However, this is nonsense. Sorcerers are basically registered in the General Directorate.
Whether the sorcerer and the cursed spirit are colluding, or the senior management of the general office are colluding with the cursed spirit, both are big news.
But that person is dead, so there is no evidence.
Nobara Kugisaki didn't miss the strange look on his face. As the two of them walked downstairs, she looked at Suzuki Kawa, who was a step ahead of her, and said, "Did you know something just now?"
Suzuki Chuan turned around and said, "It's not a good thing. There's no evidence... I suspect the sorcerer and the cursed spirit are colluding with each other."
He paused and emphasized: "It's a sorcerer, not a curser."
Kugisaki Nobara frowned and stared at Suzuki Kawa: "This kind of thing is no joke." This is crazy. Every time I work so hard on a mission, those guys still drag me down?!
"So, there's no evidence after death," he raised his chin meaningfully. Kugisaki Nobara looked up in the direction where she had just discovered the bloodstain. Suzuki Kawa continued, "That man is actually no longer human, but the master's technique hasn't transformed him yet."
Yuji Itadori should have more experience with such things.
Yuji Itadori is in charge of the second floor. Suzuki Kawa believes that if he lets Yuji Itadori go to the basement alone, the probability of being caught is as high as 90%.
When assigning tasks, he and Megumi Fushiguro looked at each other, and their brain waves connected instantly. Megumi Fushiguro immediately said, "I'll go downstairs" and left.
As Suzuki Chuan was speaking, his phone vibrated. He lowered his head and took it out. After scanning the message on it, his face changed slightly: "There's a problem on the basement floor!"
Just as they reached the second floor, Yuji Itadori had also finished his inspection and was walking over. When they heard what Suzuki Kawa said, their faces became serious and they ran towards the elevator room leading to the basement.
The underground floor was quiet, with many cars parked there. The lights were dim, stretching the shadows of the silent cars very long, and the shoes stepping on the ground made a distinct echo.
Megumi Fushiguro was standing at the elevator door waiting for them, with the jade dog squatting obediently at her feet.
Seeing the elevator door open, he put away his phone and watched his colleague walk out.
"Let's go." He nodded, his expression obviously much heavier.
The three followed him, walking deeper into the underground. Fushiguro Megumi's calm voice echoed in the air: "There are two elevators here, one north and one south. You got off the north elevator. When I checked the south elevator, I found it was broken."
"The elevator car had a strong smell of blood and curses."
Pausing, Megumi Fushiguro looked towards the south elevator with a flashing red light, her gaze falling on the tightly closed gap, from which thick blood was slowly dripping.
Suzuki Kawa took a deep breath, his left eye changed color, and a completely different environment came into his sight. His expression changed drastically, and he suddenly pulled Kugisaki Nobara beside him.
“Huh?!”
The girl stumbled a few steps and turned her head, "What—what is this?"
Where she was standing, a drop, no, a small pool of thick and smelly blood appeared.
Suzuki Kawa suppressed his nausea and looked up. He saw densely packed human figures hanging on the ceiling of the parking lot, with cloudy eyes staring at them. The scene that made his sanity drop wildly frightened him so much that his face turned pale.
"What is this thing!?" Yuji Itadori also looked up and said in surprise. He had only seen this scene in horror movies.
There was a sudden slamming sound from the elevator door behind them.
"Damn it, you're playing tricks! Can you cursed spirits pretend to be vengeful ghosts?!" Suzuki Kawa's psychic eyes burned instantly. He raised his hand, and a nearly dark green psychic flame exploded, sweeping across the entire ceiling of the parking lot.
A teeth-grinding roasting sound was heard.
He fell into a manic state. Nobara Kugisaki frowned and was about to say something, but Megumi Fushiguro shook her head, turned around and stared at the elevator door that was still slamming.
The blood dripped faster and faster.
The situation is not good.
Kugisaki Nobara only has one nail left.
"What's behind the door?"
"…It's a human." Megumi Fushiguro closed her eyes and spoke.
To be precise, it is a human being who has been transformed halfway but still retains consciousness and body.
Yuji Itadori felt a chill running up his scalp from his heels, his hands trembling unconsciously. Fushiguro Megumi's words instantly reminded him of how this situation came about.
The cursed spirit entered the elevator with the crowd, and then when everyone was at their most crowded, it activated the Wuwei transformation. Its body expanded instantly, filling the elevator and squeezing the limbs. Then its chest cavity ruptured, and blood mixed with organ fragments flowed out, and the blood became increasingly thick and sticky.
Looking at his masterpiece, the real person must have laughed heartily with great satisfaction.
"How can Suzuki still use the psychic eyes?" Most of the densely packed heads were actually twisted cursed spirits, which should have been transformed by the real person in the past. Morinaga Tree didn't know much about the psychic eyes, but he could feel that the power of the psychic eyes was almost exhausted.
Terasaka looked at Suzuki Kawa's almost frozen brows, wondering what he was thinking.
Even if they are not vengeful ghosts, the twisted and dead human souls are still trapped in the ugly bodies of the cursed spirits. Wherever you look, you can see densely packed chaotic souls of people wailing and wandering.
"If he keeps consuming energy like this, he'll die." Si Chong said, his eyes complicated. "This isn't something that can be reversed by any supernatural power. Does he know that?"
"Suzuki!" He muttered and shouted at Suzuki Kawa.
The blond boy turned a deaf ear, his brows and eyes were cold, the powerful dark green flames continued to spread, the scorching temperature accompanied by the screams and cries of the soul, even projected into reality.
Megumi Fushiguro and the others also heard the sound.
"Go to the afterlife."
"It won't be any worse in the afterlife."
The boy's gentle murmur seemed to carry some magical power. The crying gradually stopped, the intense restlessness of the soul subsided, and the ignorant human being seemed to have returned to infancy, standing there blankly, and then turned into countless points of light.
Gathered in Suzuki Kawa's eyes.
The green pupils were so dark that they were almost black.
He closed his eyes.
"Go to the afterlife." The boy's voice had a hint of inorganic calmness.
The elevator door stopped banging.
The entire underground floor fell into silence, with only the crackling sound of flames audible.
