Chapter 72
Gojo Satoru: “…”
"Let me ask you this, Jay! Why did you suddenly come to this guy's room?!"
A certain white-haired boy jumped up from the bed.
He thought about waiting in Shen Du Jian Liu's room for a long time, and he also thought about failing to ambush him, but he never thought about -
This guy Jay actually came to visit me without telling me.
So he wasn't just staring at something lonely the past few days, was he? !
"...After class, I asked you if you wanted to go to the new fruit store on the street to buy some fruit, but you said you had something important to do and refused."
Xia Youjie pressed his temple and looked at the white-haired boy who was standing there jumping in silence.
"Besides, Satoru."
"Is it related to you that I came to see Liu?"
When he came back from buying fruits, he happened to run into a servant of the Zen temple who came to deliver something. It was said that it was something new sent to him by Jianliu's brother.
So Geto Suguru took it up along with him.
"ha!?"
Veins popped up on Gojo Satoru's forehead. He raised his voice and pointed his finger at the man opposite him and retorted, "Then what does it have to do with you that I came to this guy's bed?!"
…
"What are you talking about?"
Shen Du Jianliu put his hand to his lips, coughed lightly a few times, and looked at the two people standing in his room with great confusion.
He took out his cell phone and looked down at the time.
16:13, Did we come back too early?
***
Since bidding farewell to Geto Suguru and Gojo Satoru that day, Kamado Miru has been exorcising the cursed spirits.
The senior management kept their promise and assigned the task that the two people were supposed to do to me.
Shen Du Jianliu traveled all over the country these two days, without sleep for 5 days, and basically only returned to the high school or Zen temple home at midnight.
I don’t know if it’s because my warning was useful, but the pupa-type cursed fetuses have stopped appearing.
Whenever his body couldn't hold on any longer, he would go to Ieiri Nitro for treatment.
"I said, you... did you really take what I said before to heart?"
Ieiri Shoko really couldn't understand how Kamado Miru had gotten his body into this state.
Her treatment now is no longer just about repairing the other person's body, but about overdrawing the life of this guy's soul.
Ieiri Shoko never gets involved in the messy political situation, whether it's the usual small quarrels between Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru, or the decisions of those old men in the upper echelons...
But the phenomenon of Shen Du Jian Liu is too terrifying.
What on earth did he go through that caused his internal organs to rupture and his body to be torn and bleeding profusely every day?
"Do you want me to call the police for you?"
The girl raised her hand and made a phone call gesture.
Shen Du Jian Liu: "..."
He looked at Ieiri Naoko in confusion, not understanding why the other party suddenly asked this question in a serious manner.
It's meaningless after all.
Don't worry.
The white-haired boy thought about it and asked the question that concerned him the most: "Jie Ru, do you know of anyone in the upper echelons who is good at studying spell power or providing experimental data?"
He had already asked the system in his mind.
Because he is not from this world, theoretically speaking, as long as he integrates a part of his body into the body of a non-sorcerer... or even a sorcerer, the other party will most likely be rejected by the laws of this world.
There is an 80% chance that those who are excluded will become "outsiders" like Kamado Miru.
This means that they can ignore the settings of this world and thus lose the so-called cursed power.
As long as Kamado cannot see the protagonist of this world, Yuji Itadori, and does not affect the basic framework of the story's development, and ensures that the other party will be able to successfully enter a technical high school in the future, the world will not collapse.
This is similar to the situation where as long as Dazai Osamu defected from Port Mafia, he would recommend Nakajima Atsushi to join the Armed Detective Agency in the future.
Because it is the main world, it cannot be changed at will.
"Experimental personnel? I know a few of them..."
Naoko Ieiri was often called to treat high-level officials, so naturally she knew some people there, especially researchers in the medical field.
"I can give you their contact information, but you have to communicate with them yourself."
"Yes, thank you."
Kamado Kenryu thanked Ieiri Nozomi sincerely.
As usual, he healed today's internal injuries in the medical room, sent a letter to Geto Suguru reporting his progress, and then continued to exorcise the cursed spirit.
As for Gojo Satoru, who had been hiding behind the stairs and observing him a few minutes ago before he and Ieiri Shoko went to the medical room...
Shen Du Jianliu naturally discovered the other party.
He deliberately moved away from the hall, not intending to let the other party know anything.
Before leaving the dormitory, Ieiri Shoko also noticed Gojo Satoru...
I always feel like this is going to turn into a very troublesome situation.
never mind.
She just wanted to finish treating Shen Du Jianliu as soon as possible, study his physical data, conduct a few repetitive experiments on mice, and then have a good sleep.
We'll talk about the rest tomorrow.
***
Because he knew the tasks of Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru, and he would usually ask about their situations through text messages, Kamado Miru was not very worried about Gojo Satoru's safety.
Although cursed spirits can often be sensed on the streets, it is not particularly common to see those above level one endangering humans.
Concentrated treatment over a few days can provide a short window of recovery.
He came back early today and didn't expect to see the two people he paid close attention to in his room.
"What are you talking about?"
"See the flow?"
Geto Xiayou noticed the white-haired boy standing behind him and turned his head first.
He put down the thumb that was pressing against his temple and handed the bag in his arms to the other person first: "Your family sent something here, and since you were not here, I brought it up for you."
"Family?"
"Well, they said your brother purchased it."
Shen Du Jian Liu: "..."
Is it Zenin Naoya again?
The other party also gave me a lot of cough medicine and throat lozenges two days ago.
Because he never rejected other people's kindness, Shen Du Jianliu finally accepted it.
“Pfft.”
Gojo Satoru sat back on the bed and sneered, then raised his hand and touched his chin: "The eldest son of the Zenin family—"
"You two are truly brothers and sisters."
[It's amazing, why do I feel like Gojo is acting weird every day]
[Naoya: Indeed, you are absolutely right]
[Am I the only one who is curious about why these two DKs are crowded in the room with Jianliu?]
[Ahhh, now that Jianliu is back, let’s take a rest. I saw him vomit blood several times.]
[Is A Liu's health getting worse? Every time he enters the live broadcast room, his blood color becomes one degree less.]
[+1, the live broadcast room has not been open as frequently these days. Although I have less time to watch A Liu’s live broadcast, it’s good for him to have more rest.]
Geto Xiayou ignored the person who was making sarcastic remarks.
He raised his other hand that held the cherries and continued in a gentle voice, "I went out and bought some cherries today."
"Cherries are a blood-boosting fruit. Jianliu, you often suffer from anemia, right? So I thought I'd share some with you."
"We are all classmates, we should help each other."
"Thank you, Jay."
Shen Du Jianliu reached out and took the plastic bag from the other person.
There was no way he would refuse a gift from such a desperate person.
"Tsk tsk...Jie, why don't I see 'help'?"
Gojo Satoru stretched out his voice again: "It's great to have fresh cherries to eat."
“…Satoru.”
"Do you want to fight?"
Finally, veins popped out on Geto's forehead.
He raised his thumb and pressed it flat again, then turned around and said with a fake smile: "Your portion is in my room, go get it if you want."
"Don't stay in Jianliu's room unless you have nothing to do..."
"What on earth are you doing here?"
"Of course I have something to ask this new guy—"
Gojo Satoru did not forget the important thing he wanted to do. He restrained his previous expression, stood up, and pulled off his sunglasses with his slender fingers, revealing a pair of pale blue eyes as he looked at Kamado Kenryu.
"Hey, new guy."
"I need to go to Saitama Prefecture to do something. Do you want to come with me?"
"Saitama?"
Xia Youjie frowned slightly: "Wu, do you have a new mission again?"
"Well... sort of."
Gojo Satoru pushed up the frame of his sunglasses, raised the corner of his mouth and said seriously: "Speaking of which, it has a lot to do with your Zenin family."
"So it's just the two of us."
“…”
There was no reason for Shen Du Jian Liu to refuse the other party.
Gojo Satoru is his key protected person. Now that he has taken over his mission, what he needs to pay most attention to are some human factors and unique unexpected events.
The other party was going out to do something, and Shen Du Jianliu was happy to follow him.
"I see."
He nodded.
Xia Youjie always felt that something was wrong, and his handsome face showed worry and a headache: "Wu, can't you do it yourself?"
Gojo Satoru has become the strongest in the practical sense and is fully capable of going out and handling missions alone.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t be separated so often after they entered the third year of high school.
"Don't worry."
Gojo Satoru put his hands in his pockets, hummed calmly, deliberately bumped his best friend's shoulder, and left the corridor whistling.
"We'll be back soon."
"Jie, don't worry too much."
He left the dormitory with a swagger.
Xia Youjie: “…”
Shen Dujianliu nodded reassuringly to the black-haired boy.
He quickened his pace to catch up with him, and they soon walked out of the school gate and arrived at the foot of the nearby mountain.
Gojo Satoru walked ahead without looking back, but he was actually secretly looking at the thin boy behind him.
That guy often looked around on the road, as if he was looking for something.
...What is he looking for?
Just as Gojo Satoru was feeling confused, the other party suddenly rushed forward and caught a small raccoon that accidentally fell from a tree.
He squatted down very gently and put the raccoon cat on the ground.
Gojo Satoru blinked and pulled his special black sunglasses down a little.
Well...it really is a raccoon dog that looks like a cross between a raccoon and a fox, or what they usually call a deceptive civet cat.
Is there such an animal in the forest of the college?
The little guy was not injured, but a little frightened. After being put on the ground, he immediately "xiu" and hid in the bushes.
Shen Du Jianliu returned to his original position very calmly and looked around again, as if what happened just now was just an accident and not what he was looking for.
Or rather, it was one of the things he was looking for.
When the two passed by the bus stop at the foot of the mountain, Kamado Miru actually took out a clean handkerchief from his pocket and used the cloth, which was obviously made of luxurious and valuable material, to wipe the graffiti on the bus stop sign.
"What are you going to do?"
Gojo Satoru subconsciously grabbed the slender wrist of the white-haired boy, ps: there is no limit to the distance.
"Erase the advertisement from it."
Shen Du Jian Liu tilted his head and answered patiently: "They cover the names of the platforms, which is a bad phenomenon."
"...Then you can use your own high-end handkerchief to wipe it?"
"This handkerchief must have cost tens of thousands of yen. It was custom-made by a famous brand."
"Are all of you Zenin family members so extravagant?"
"Handkerchiefs are for use."
Shen Du Jian Liu slightly frowned his delicate eyebrows, and with a little effort, he easily pulled his arm back: "It can help and reduce the negative impact on society."
“That’s what it was made for.”
Kamado Kenryu hasn't used it at all since Zenin Naoya packed it up and gave it to him.
Now is the time to use it.
Gojo Satoru: “…”
silence.
The air inexplicably fell into a very quiet silence.
Gojo Satoru suddenly remembered some of Jie and Gaozi's comments about Kamado Mi-ryu.
No way.
Is it really the setting of a “nice guy”? ? ?
Or is it just a show for yourself?
Gojo Satoru originally had no intention of taking the bus, but when he saw a large truck arrive just before the other person was wiping his car, he pulled the other person onto the bus in despair.
The platform built near the Polytechnic College is located in the suburbs and there are almost no people. There are many empty seats in the carriage, but this is not the case after three stops.
Especially when passing through a commercial street, more and more people will get on the bus, and in the end it is likely to be full of people.
As expected...
After more than ten minutes, the number of passengers in the carriage continued to increase, and there was no extra seat left.
The number of people getting off the bus is far less than the number of new passengers getting on.
Before arriving at the next stop, Shen Du Jianliu suddenly stood up and gave his seat to an unstable old lady.
Not only that, he also helped the other person carry the heavy luggage to prevent the old man from feeling uncomfortable with the weight on his legs.
"Hello."
Gojo Satoru, who had been planning to sit there without changing his mind, put away his crossed legs and said, "Let's get off at the next stop."
"This car is too crowded. There are too many people. It hurts my eyes to look at all the mess of cursed energy mixed together."
"Do you have a phone number for auxiliary supervision? Can you ask someone to pick us up?"
"Hold on."
Of course, Shen Du Jianliu could not ignore Gojo Satoru's discomfort. He followed him out of the car and took out his cell phone from his pocket.
After thinking for a moment, the boy called Kamo Yotaro, who had taken over from him at the beginning.
The other party answered the phone almost immediately.
Upon hearing Kamado Miru's request, Kamo Yotaro immediately said that he could pick them up.
10 minutes later.
A familiar black sedan stopped in front of the two men.
The person sitting in the driver's seat is a Zen monk.
"Gojo-san... Second Young Master."
"Where are you going?"
The other party slowly rolled down the car window and greeted him in an impeccable tone: "Mr. Kamo has something to do, so I'll take care of it for you."
Gojo Satoru raised an eyebrow.
He put one hand in his pocket, glanced at Shen Du Jian Liu who looked normal, and walked over with long straight legs: "Hey, isn't this the assistant supervisor of the Zen temple?"
"It's been a long time."
"It's been almost a week. I haven't seen him since the mission six days ago."
"hehe……"
The Zen temple master laughed dryly a few times: "Because classmate Gojo has no missions in the past six days, we naturally can't meet each other."
"How's your recent rest at the Polytechnic?"
"It's OK."
Gojo Satoru was not interested in the assistant supervisor's greetings. He observed Kamado Kenryu's expression again.
Nothing could be seen from the other person's handsome face, as if he had no idea and didn't care who was coming to pick them up.
Tsk.
Quite a pretentious one.
He wanted to see when the other party would be able to sit still.
"The destination is Saitama."
Shen Du Jianliu and Zenin Zongren told Gojo Satoru where he wanted to go, and got on the car with him.
However, after driving for more than 10 minutes——
Gojo Satoru suddenly said, "Stop the car."
"Huh?"
The Zen master hurriedly pressed the brakes several times and began to pull over to slow down in a panic: "What's wrong?"
"Did you discover any cursed spirits nearby?"
"No, I just remembered something."
Gojo Satoru turned to look at the white-haired boy sitting next to him: "Hey."
First of all, I don’t say hello! Secondly, my name is Chu Yuxuan]
[The five cats are like ADHD children, doing a lot of things along the way]
[Wow, every time Shendu goes out, he helps a lot of people. He has to curse spirits and help people at the same time. Our cub is really having a hard time.]
[Speaking of Saitama, I think of Huihui]
[Can you please call me Jiajianliu properly?! 】
“…”
Shen Du Jianliu looked back at the other party in confusion.
He actually didn't care what Gojo Satoru called him. He only needed to focus on Gojo Satoru's safety.
However, good relationships should start with improving the way you address each other.
Shen Du Jianliu looked at the comments that kept passing by in the live broadcast room without changing his expression. He followed their advice and said sincerely, "Gojo-san, you can call me by my name."
"Although you don't like me calling you by your name, I don't mind you calling me by my name directly."
“…”
Gojo Satoru pulled the corner of his mouth speechlessly, his expression almost unable to hold back.
He opened his mouth and thought for a few seconds, but did not refute it. Instead, he called out Shen Du Jianliu's current surname honestly, which was rare.
"Zen Temple."
"Ahem! I don't want to go to Saitama Prefecture now."
Shen Du Jian Liu: "Why?"
"So, I suddenly forgot that I had something extremely urgent to do, but Saitama's side is also very important."
"How about this, you go and help me withdraw some money and transfer it to another card."
Gojo Satoru casually took out two bank cards from his pocket and threw them to the white-haired boy opposite him as easily as flicking coins.
"You just need to transfer the money from the black card to the green card. Transfer 1 billion. The password is written on the card."
"I'm going to the basement level of the store in Ginza to queue up for the latest desserts."
"Let's separate here. Don't catch up with me. I need the money urgently."
He raised the corners of his mouth and pushed the sunglasses on his nose with his knuckles: "Didn't you say you wanted to be my friend?"
"Can you do this little thing well?"
"Come to think of it, I haven't been out alone for several days."
He raised his eyes to glance at the black-haired man sitting silently in the driver's seat, and said nonchalantly: "This is the first time since I separated from you last time."
"After I finish my work today, I probably won't go out for a while. It's really nice to stay in school."
"Um."
Kamado Kenryu put away the bank card and looked at Gojo Satoru's expression thoughtfully.
The other party doesn't look like he is going to do a mission alone.
There was no drastic reaction to the spoilers in the barrage, proving that he would not die at this time.
The password on the card was written in pencil, and judging from the traces, it could not have been written more than 3 hours ago.
Shen Du Jianliu doesn't mind satisfying everything the other party wants to do. Since it does not affect safety and can enhance the relationship between them, the other party can do whatever he wants.
After watching Gojo Satoru get off the car and fly away with no expression on his face, Kamado Kenru withdrew his gaze and looked at the assistant supervisor who was fiddling with his mobile phone with his head down.
"You don't have to send me off."
"Okay, okay."
The Zen monks left the temple somewhat speechlessly.
***
Gojo Satoru bought an ice cream at a random shop on the street.
He kept eating while paying attention to his surroundings. Although he said he would go to the commercial street at the Ginza subway entrance to buy dessert, he deliberately chose a road with fewer people.
The test that Gojo Satoru envisioned was simple.
Didn’t that guy Shen Du Jianliu want to take the opportunity to assassinate me?
He hardly went out these days. Even when he went out, he went to a small street near the technical college with Jie. There was definitely no opportunity for him to take action.
Now Gojo Satoru intends to take the initiative to provide conditions to the other party.
Since Jay said before that the guy accompanied him for a day, he also wanted to go out alone with him.
To be honest, watching Shen Du Jian Liu's performance, Gojo Satoru's heart almost tilted towards the other side...
Until Shen Du Jianliu called the assistant supervisor with whom he had secretly discussed the matter to come and pick them up.
Is it a coincidence or... ?
Let's wait and see.
In order to provoke the other party to take action, Gojo Satoru deliberately made an outrageous request to get off the bus halfway, with the purpose of making him unhappy.
Of course, he really wanted to take the 1 billion.
It's just that there's no need to go through so much trouble. Normally, anyone would be dissatisfied if they were ordered around like this.
All that’s left is waiting.
He had deliberately chosen a place with few people to be alone, and even told her his destination. If Shen Du Jian Liu hadn't attacked him -
Then Gojo Satoru reluctantly believed what Gon and Nozomi said.
He was willing to give the other party a chance to trust him, and then slowly collect evidence for the rest.
