Chapter 106: Xiao Zhao and Jing Guang's Spiritual Images
Jokes aside, after the teasing, Jiang Lai still sat next to the devil horned wolfhound Matsuda Jinpei, rubbed his slightly curly hair, turned on his phone and said, "Come on, I'll watch the learning video with you."
"What learning video?" Matsuda Jinpei turned his head and saw a series of messages appearing on the phone screen:
[#Puppy walking video, super cute little dumpling#]
[#What should I do if my dog can’t walk? This trick can help you solve it easily#]
[#Gold medal professional dog trainer, 15 days of training, let the vicious biting vicious dog become a gentle and lovely maid puppy#]
Matsuda Jinpei: "......? Will this really work? And what is the last one?!"
"I typed in 'Puppy learning to walk' and the following are related recommendations - ahem, the last one is probably an advertisement, don't worry about it."
Jiang Lai silently clicked [Not Interested] on the ad, and then asked concernedly, "As long as you imitate the video and work hard, you will be able to achieve great success one day! Which one do you think is more effective?"
Matsuda Jinpei flicked his fluffy tail and said, "Neither of them is allowed. And there's no need for such a passionate speech here."
Jiang Lai pondered for two seconds, then suddenly realized something and started typing on his phone again: "I understand. I shouldn't type 'Puppy learning to walk', but 'Big dog learning to walk'!"
"That's not the problem!!" Matsuda Jinpei almost started dancing with his wolfhound body.
Then, in the next second, as a policeman, he keenly noticed the cunning smile in Jiang Lai's eyes.
After a pause, Matsuda suddenly realized that what he had just done was not serious, but a joke from a friend.
"Okay, Jiang Lai, you are worthy of being good friends who hurt each other. In this case--" A black wolfhound over two meters long suddenly pounced over. Although its limbs were still uncoordinated, it only needed to simply mobilize its body in this situation.
The little sheep Jiang Lai was not afraid of the heavy and furry dog pressing on him. He laughed.
The wolfhound with devil horns actually smiled in a humane way, with its fangs slightly exposed and the Schrödinger's cigarette still in its mouth. He raised one of his front legs and stepped lightly on the chest of the brown-haired boy, pretending to be malicious and threatening:
"Hehe, you can't beat me now, so you'd better beg for mercy."
"That's not necessarily true." Jiang Lai held the devil's horns on the other's head with both hands and said half-jokingly, "Is this some kind of alternative gladiatorial contest?"
After a friendly but at the same time intimate interaction between two close friends, the last trace of alienation between them after their long separation also dissipated into thin air.
The laughter and joking just now was quite exhausting. Jiang Lai, who was lying on the ground, stretched out his body and pushed the black wolfhound on his body with one hand: "Okay, stop making trouble, get up quickly - you are too heavy."
"I can't help it. Who made me a majestic wolfhound now?" Matsuda Jinpei replied, but his body moved quickly. After the fun just now, he had adapted to his body and would not do a big split like before.
But overall, the movements are still a bit stiff.
Jiang Lai sat up and returned to the serious topic. He said calmly: "At present, it will take some time for you to adapt to your body and abilities. I will not take you to the battlefield until you are fully familiar with it."
Matsuda Jinpei's expression paused for a moment, but he did not argue.
He knew that since he was not yet fully proficient, going on the battlefield in the world of magic would probably cause his friends to worry and end up doing more harm than good.
"Yes, I know." Matsuda Jinpei nodded and replied. He understood the reason rationally, but emotionally he still felt a little depressed.
In the previous world, they were friends who could fight side by side. But now, after finally crossing the world and coming to the magic world, he couldn't really help immediately.
When Matsuda Jinpei was feeling a little depressed, he suddenly felt someone hugging him from the side. Jiang Lai, who looked like a young boy, hugged the black wolfhound tightly with both hands and said sincerely:
"Thank you, Matsuda. I am very happy to have your company."
Matsuda Jinpei was slightly stunned. After a few seconds, he coughed and said, "What is there to thank me for? Being by your side when you need me is what friends and family are all about."
The originally depressed knot in his heart was relieved at this moment. The wolfhound Matsuda Jinpei rubbed the boy with his soft curly hair and responded to the other's hug. His tone seemed nonchalant, but it was mixed with a tenacity that belonged to him:
"Don't worry, don't underestimate me - I promise to master everything here at a super fast speed."
"Of course." Jiang Lai smiled, "I believe you."
His brows were bright and he stretched out his hand towards the black devil horned wolfhound.
Matsuda Jinpei maintained his cool posture and smoothly extended one of his front paws to place it on the boy's hand.
Although their bodies were not the same as before, they still shook hands as before. They exchanged glances and smiled at each other.
"No problem." ×2

After a period of time, practical training led by Nanami Kento and Haibara Yuu officially began.
In the actual combat exercises, the two of them mainly trained Yuji Itadori, Megumi Fushiguro and Norito Kugizaki, and were ruthless in the simulated battles.
Jiang Lai, a relatively young sheep who had just mastered the technique, did not join in the brutal combat. He was only asked to watch and learn from the side, or go to another open space to familiarize himself with the technique.
Taking advantage of this time, Jiang Lai also summoned Matsuda, Jingguang and Xiao Zhao, who knew the truth about the little sheep vest, while confirming that his scientific friends were free, and adapted, improved and trained with them.
Kurosawa Akira's spirit image is a silver snake that can change its size freely.
The beautiful silver-white snake has scales that glow like silver foil, and its gray-green eyes have erected pupils. The first impression this image gives people is coldness.
However, Kurosawa Akira does not show that gloomy aura on a daily basis. When he is resting, he curls up into a lazy little white snake, winding around the wrist of the little sheep Jiang Lai, cool as a bracelet.
Jiang Lai half-jokingly said that if it were summer now, a humanoid self-propelled ice pack like Xiao Zhao's would definitely be very popular.
Kurosawa Akira: "What kind of ice pack do you want, Jiang Lai? I'll try to see if I can change it."
Jiang Lai: "... Well, that's not necessary." He patted the silver snake's head, "This is good."
The elf image of Morobushi Kagemitsu is a pure white unicorn in the style of Jujutsu painting. It has a slender body, a spiral horn that is delicate and dangerous, and a familiar pair of upturned blue eyes.
Although it looks relatively benign in daily life, it can actually injure and kill people, and can even kill a cursed spirit (bushi).
Morobushi Jingguang, who transformed into a unicorn, also carried the little sheep Jiang Lai for a few laps. He was in good shape and ran very fast. The little sheep Jiang Lai hugged the other's neck, and the little braid was blown by the wind.
Jiang Lai didn't want to go up at first, but after all, after knowing that this was his good friend, he could no longer treat him with the attitude he would treat a mount.
But Morobushi Kagemitsu didn't care. He raised his eyes and said, "In this world of magic, since you are a unicorn that is good at running, you should make full use of it. There is no need to care about it. If you really care, then you can take turns to do housework for a longer time after returning there."
Jiang Lai, feeling a little embarrassed, agreed without hesitation, but then he realized: Wait, how many days did I agree to take care of the housework? ?
Jiang Lai: ...The dark-hearted Jingguang with a gentle smile appeared!
Of course, this was more of a joke between a few people.
Morofushi Jingguang didn't care too much about the rotation of housework, he just told his good friend not to be so restrained.
The scientific friends were able to come to the world of spells in the form of elves, which gave Jiang Lai a lot of help. However, the level of their spell power was related to the little sheep Jiang Lai.
Therefore, the little sheep Jiang Lai must constantly improve himself so that the elves summoned by the ritual [Electronic Elf] can exert their greatest strength.
Considering that this matter would be drawn into the neighboring scientific world in the comics, Jiang Lai planned to give his scientific friends some nicknames.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Lai followed the order of Matsuda Jinpei, Kurosawa Akira, and Morobushi Kagemitsu and said one by one: "Kuromaki, Xiaobai, Dabai?"
Science Friend: “?”
This is too simple!!
Jiang Lai blinked and said, "Then... Shadow Dog, Silver Snake, Pegasus?"
It is not easy to come up with a nickname for an elf that is not too uncommon, has an image, and can be shouted out loud without sounding too childish!
"Let's go with the latter group." Zhu Fu Jingguang nodded and said, "We can simply call them Shadow Dog, Silver Snake, Pegasus, etc."
"Am I a wolf or a dog... but a wolf-dog should be a dog." Matsuda Jinpei was confused about the subtle point and nodded in agreement.
Akira Kurosawa didn't have any objections to the name. He has already started planning how to design new peripherals and fan art after the subsequent plot is released.
This peaceful training routine lasted for almost a week. When the weekend came, they took a break from training and rested.
The Fuhuzhi team, who had been trained hard by their adult seniors every day, could finally take a break. Yuji Itadori happily suggested that they go for a buffet together.
Huiyuan Xiong, who was also enthusiastic, immediately answered and said cheerfully, "Great! I haven't had a good meal in a long time. The training schedule has been quite tight these days. Let me treat you all today and have a good meal!"
"Great, long live!" Yuji Itadori and No Rose Kugizaki high-fived and cheered.
Although Fushiguro Megumi did not show any strong emotions, she also revealed a sense of ease.
The little sheep Jiang Lai looked equally happy. After all, delicious food is a common pursuit of mankind.
Nanami Kento held his nose and said calmly, "Then tomorrow, I'll treat you all."
"Oh, two days of big meals in a row!" The happiness of young boys and girls is that simple.
They were walking together on the road, but because the road was narrow, they were not walking side by side.
Yu Haibara led the way and walked in front, followed closely by Yuji Itadori and No Rose Kugizaki, who were very excited, and discussed what to choose.
Fushiguro Megumi had a calm expression and occasionally answered questions from Itadori and Kugizaki. He walked at his usual pace and was almost in the same row as the little sheep Era and Nanami Kento who was guarding behind.
It was noon, and there were not many people on the street. After Haibara Yu, Yuji Itadori, and Norose Kugizaki turned the corner in front of them, they fell behind and turned as well.
However, it was this short time difference——
When they turned the corner, there was no one in front of them!
Fushiguro Megumi and the little sheep Jiang Lai were both stunned, and then quickly became alert!
Nanami Kento pulled out his thallium knife wrapped with the talisman even faster, his expression became serious, and his voice was calm and straight:
"It's typical for an enemy to come to you when you're relaxed."
Fushiguro Megumi took a step towards the little sheep Jiang Lai, protecting the youngest person present. He straightened his lips and said, "Yuji and the others..."
"They're fine. The enemy couldn't have dealt with them so quickly. They're probably just separated from us temporarily. There might be a cursed spirit that hasn't completed its domain effect here." Nanami Kento looked around, "I don't know when the other party started to arrange this - in short, let's find someone first, or the caster himself."
Little Sheep Jiang Lai was not in a hurry to act. He was also observing his surroundings, thinking silently in his heart: Is the enemy going to take action? Is it the supervisory committee's order to retrieve the fragment of the godhood in Yuji Itadori's body?
I don't know if the ones who came were the guys sent out by Brain Flower, or the real people who failed last time and joined forces with other unknown cursed spirits to make a comeback.
If the brain knows a lot, it won't be so direct. Maybe the real person was unhappy with the result last time and came back specially.
No matter what, the fragments are now in Ryomen Sukuna's possession, Jiang Lai thought silently. Whoever touches that guy will be in trouble.
