Chapter 148 Has Become Tokyo's Biggest Ghost Story

148.

Nanami Kento is a first-year student recruited into the Jujutsu High School.

There was another boy named Huihara Yu who enrolled with him.

Nanami Kento still has some admiration for sorcerers and believes that he is protecting others and doing the right thing. In fact, he admires the seniors very much - before he met Gojo Satoru and the others.

After staying in the academy for a while longer, he gradually discovered that in the eyes of the top management, sorcerers were just disposable consumables. From then on, he regarded "sorcerer" as a high-paying and high-risk profession.

The change of his identity from a "student" to a "worker" also made him deeply realize that the sorcerer is a dog!

Unlike Nanami Kento who quickly became a sunset, Haibara Yu has always been as energetic as the morning sun and maintains a positive and optimistic attitude towards everything.

In the eyes of other people in the high school, Huihara Yu is like a Shiba Inu that wags its tail crazily whenever it sees someone. No one would feel disgusted by such a cute existence.

The same is true for Nanami Kento - although occasionally, the overly natural Haibara Yuu will bring him a little collapse.

But this is all harmless.

"What did you say?" Nanami Kento suppressed the urge to turn around and walk away. Looking at his colleague who had a sunny face, he pressed his brows helplessly and said, "The police will not handle such matters."

"But..." Huiyuan Xiong held a pair of underwear in one hand, "My panties were suddenly married, this is really weird, isn't it?"

When Huihara Yu woke up in the dormitory in the morning, he found that the window that he had closed before going to bed was opened, and his underwear was placed on the table.

That would be fine...but next to his underwear, there was another pair of underwear of the same color.

Huihara Yu picked up the two pairs of underwear and found a piece of cloth of the same color sandwiched in the middle.

"It looks like a fat family of three."

"So I was wondering..." He looked at Nanami Kento and said logically, "Could this be related to the previous strange story?"

The source of the strange story was probably a few months ago, when someone lost something important at night. When the police questioned and questioned him, the other party shouted in disbelief: "I told you that you were wearing an animal mask?! Such an obvious feature, you can see it with a little inspection, right?!"

However, the police checked the nearby surveillance cameras many times and did not find any suspicious behavior or strange people wearing masks.

However, I saw some larger birds than normal flying in the sky.

At first, the police and everyone just classified this as an ordinary theft case, but as time went by, more and more people lost things that were not expensive but very important.

"My...my wig...without the wig, how can I lie to my male online friends tomorrow...No, I didn't say I was lying...what, are you 'Rose in Heart'? Wait, this is the police station, you are a police officer——"

"Wow - why did you take away my final paper that I just wrote? Don't bother me, I'm in good spirits, it's just the last day of the deadline and I just need to rewrite it... Hehe, it's okay, I'm fine!"

"Me? What did I lose? Oh, it was just the 14th version of the design that Party A asked to be revised... Why didn't I cry like the person next door who lost his thesis? Haha, because Party A finally chose the first version without any revisions."

…

What's weird is that when investigating surveillance, the police noticed that on the night when each person lost something, a strange bird would appear around them.

More and more missing cases occurred, but the police were unable to find any clues or suspects.

Over time, people began to fear the strange bird that would appear at crime scenes and called it——

"A hungry thief who will eat anything."

"Be careful of the strange birds that appear at night and steal your treasures." At this point, Huiyuan Xiong clasped his hands together, his eyes sparkling, "This ghost story is so cool--"

"But... " Huiyuan Xiong tugged at his underwear and muttered, "Although I also like this panties, after all, it is 100% cotton and very comfortable to wear...but it can't be considered a treasure, right?"

Is that why it wasn't stolen?

Nanami Kento knows this strange story.

Initially, the top management suspected that the emergence of strange stories was related to imaginary cursed spirits, and assigned related tasks to sorcerers of level two and above.

However, according to the investigation of other sorcerers, this strange story has nothing to do with cursed spirits. Rather, the place where the theft took place was terribly clean, without even a fly head - this is much more terrifying than a special cursed spirit.

"Just think about it, it's like you've always lived in the sea, with a lot of inconspicuous little fish around you, but suddenly one day..." The sorcerer involved in the investigation used his fingers to simulate an explosion, "You still live in the sea, but all those little fish are gone."

“It felt like something bad was going to happen.”

Afterwards, the matter was left unresolved.

If anyone mentions this strange story, the sorcerers involved in the investigation will give an expression that says, "This is a very complicated matter and I can't say more."

Now it seems... Nanami Kento glanced at the underwear in Haibara Yu's hand again. It turned out to be not a cursed spirit, right?

There is a barrier around the high school. If any strange magical power appears, the barrier will sound an alarm.

But seeing the pikachu look in Haibara Yuuka's eyes, Nanami Kento still agreed to accompany him to the police station.

Tokyo police are no longer surprised by cases where something that looks a little strange at first glance but is indeed a little strange upon closer inspection has been lost.

However, after the strange stories appeared, many people who took advantage of the situation began to commit real thefts, and they were also trying to distinguish them.

"Someone just came to register..." The police officer in charge of taking notes suppressed a laugh, "His left eyebrow was stolen."

"Someone said yesterday that his favorite toilet peg was stolen, right?" Another policeman recalled yesterday's incident and felt a chill, "Because he would use the pegs to make things happen, and the one that was lost was the one that made him make the most money."

"Didn't they find out later that his girlfriend found out that he was, uh, not feeling well, and threw it away secretly at night?"

"...Hey, stop gossiping. There are kids here."

Being stared at by all the policemen, Huiyuan Xiong showed a bright smile without any gloom: "Have you completed the registration? Can I take my panties with me?"

"Yes... yes."

"oh--"

After finishing the record, Huihara Yu stood at the door of the police station. After reading the LINE message, he excitedly raised his phone and showed it to Nanami Kento: "Nanami Nanami, Gojo-senpai said they are in a restaurant nearby. Should we go over?"

In fact, Nanami Kento didn't really want to go, and wanted to go back to the dormitory to read and sleep for a while. In the increasingly expectant eyes of Huihara Yu, he gave the final answer: "...Okay."

…

Ten minutes later, Nanami Kento and Huihara Yu stood in front of a restaurant with a weird decoration style.

I'm already regretting it.

A faint sense of death arose in Nanami Kento's heart, and he knew that few of the things related to Gojo Satoru were normal.

Otherwise, let's go now... Nanami Kento took a step back, before he saw those two people...

"Hey, isn't this Nanami? Now that you're here——"

Suddenly, a hand appeared on his shoulder, pinning him to the spot, and then forcibly dragged him into the store.

"Come in and play~"

"Getsu-senpai! Gojo-senpai!" Haibara Yu came up and greeted them happily. The next second, a look of obvious confusion appeared on his face, "Why..."

"Will the seniors wear maid costumes?"

"Because maid costumes make men more manly, make 1 more 1, and make 0 more 0. In short, men who have never worn maid costumes will only live an incomplete life."

After explaining why you chose the maid outfit, you placed the freshly baked cursed spirit eyeball macarons in front of Haibara Yu and Nanami Kento, and seamlessly changed your tone to a friendly and enthusiastic one.

"Come on, come on, try the new dessert I'm trying today. Just follow the recipe. I always say respect your teachers."

Xia Yujie, who was forced to wear two ponytails, picked up a macaron and looked at the eyes of the man who was rolling in anger for a while: "...Boss, this is a macaron that is disrespectful to the teacher and ancestors, right?"

"How could that be?" You exclaimed, "If you don't believe me, you can go and ask the people below if they respect their teachers."

"...Boss, have you already accepted that this macaron will send people away?"

Huiyuan Xiong didn't think too much about it. He just picked a macaron and put it in his mouth. After chewing it for a few times, his eyes lit up: "It's delicious! So amazing!"

"Is that so?" You proudly put your hands on your hips and turned your gaze to Nanami Kento, "Young man with blond hair and bangs parted in half, why aren't you eating?"

"...Thank you, I'm not really interested in desserts."

Nanami Kento tried hard not to look at the rolling eyeballs. All he wanted now was to escape from this strange place as quickly as possible.

Although the staff in the store are all very good-looking and all other seats are full of customers, it seems that this is just a restaurant with a bit of strange decoration but it is very popular.

But what normal restaurant would use cursed spirits to cook? !

What’s more, the store manager is a two-meter-tall movable armor who calls herself “Auntie”.

"You can give this to Gojo-senpai."

"Hey..." You said in a long tone, smiling as you pulled out the heavy sword, "This is a special delicacy for the night. As a sorcerer, what's wrong with eating a cursed spirit?"

It always gets good reviews. Even the sorcerer you and Frey tied up in the evening cried and said it was delicious after eating it.

If there are no customers, create them. Customers who are snatched away are also customers.

"You're not looking down on the macarons made by my auntie, are you?"

Isn't this a forced sale?! Nanami Kento tried to ask for help from his seniors, Geto looked down at the ground, Gojo Satoru looked up at the sky, and then he looked at Haibara Yu...

"Hmm?" Haibara Yuu tilted his head while happily savoring the snacks. "Nana, macarons don't suit your taste?"

When people are pushed into a corner, they will think of something clever, so -

Nanami Kento chose to change the subject: "Don't the seniors have classes today? Why are you working part-time here?"

"Huh?" You looked at Gojo Satoru and Kagome Kagome, "Didn't you tell them?"

Gojo Satoru and Kagome Kei looked at each other.

"Jay, didn't you tell me?"

"Satoru, wasn't it you who sent the LINE message to Haibara?"

"I thought you and Nitro told them."

…

"In short..." You carried the heavy sword and walked around the table twice, "the two of them were sold to me by a high-ranking curse master."

This is the reward you deserve for saving and replaying your game twenty times just to successfully blow up the high-level headquarters.
