Chapter 114: Wu's Email, Jie's Situation
Gojo Jiufengyuan walked away, the jade hairpin in his black hair was bright and gentle, stirring up an arc of light. He disappeared around the corner of the street.
Little sheep Jiang Lai retracted his gaze, turned back to Nanami Kento, blinked and asked: "Are Nanami and Mr. Jiufengyuan familiar with each other?"
"I know him, but I'm not very familiar with him." Nanami Kento nodded and replied, "It's just that sometimes when the mission requires it, I will borrow some information from him."
"But doesn't our high school have a library?" Yuji Itadori asked curiously, "And, I remember that when we went on missions, we assisted the supervisors in handing over information."
"The college has its own library, but the catalogue is limited. Some curses involve some remote and strange beliefs and legends. Such ancient books are not easy to find."
Nanami Kento explained, "The Auxiliary Supervisory Committee will provide basic mission information, but after all, we are the ones who carry out the mission, and having more information will help complete the mission."
"Actually, it was Mr. Jiufengyuan who helped us make the contact in the beginning," Huihara Yu added with big, bright eyes and a lively voice.
"There was a mission that was extremely troublesome before. The [Window] couldn't give us an accurate assessment of the level of the cursed spirits, so we could only collect as much information as possible ourselves. Fortunately, Mr. Jiufengyuan had the data on the faith in that area, so we successfully completed that mission."
"Can the Gojo family's things be lent to outsiders at will?" Fushiguro Megumi looked very calm, and he pointed out a very important point.
"In theory, the items in the Tsuzan family are not allowed to be borrowed casually, and the borrowing procedures are quite complicated." Nanami Kento pushed his glasses, "However, Mr. Kufengyuan said that because he is the direct manager of the Gojo family's collection of books, he can make it easier for us."
In other words, Gojo Kyufuin did collect and was familiar with various ancient books. Moreover, although he seemed to have no real power in the Gojo family, he could bypass many prescribed procedures and do his own things directly.
Jiang Lai analyzed it silently in his mind.
But this makes sense. According to the manga by Qianzai Qianqiu, the third elder of the Gojo family existed thousands of years ago.
Having stayed in the Gojo family for such a long time, even if he did not fight for power on the surface, he must have been establishing his own strength and power behind the scenes.
"He looks like a nice, gentle, noble-looking handsome man, but his name is a little hard to pronounce." Kugizaki Norose touched her chin and said, "It's more polite to call him by his last name, but it's easy to confuse him with Gojo-sensei... After all, their last names are both Gojo or something."
"Initially, we also called Mr. Kufengin as Mr. Gojo, but Mr. Kufengin himself said that we could just call him by his name." Huihara Yu scratched his head and smiled, "He said, 'If you call me Gojo, your first reaction is naturally the head of the family. To avoid misunderstandings, if you don't mind, just call me by my name.' So we started calling him that."
Little sheep Jiang Lai stuffed the last bite of cake into his mouth. He did not say anything, but silently lowered his eyes and thought in his heart.
The group did not continue discussing the issue, but changed the topic to something lighter and set off for the buffet hotel again.
Although they had just experienced the cursed spirit realm, as sorcerers, they were already accustomed to such a turbulent life.
Therefore, the few people were not affected too much by this and continued to focus on their current lives with great interest.
Even Megumi Fushiguro, who was the most troubled, lost all her regrets after being counselled by the wolfhound Matsuda and getting along with his companions.
He put on his faint and reserved smile again and chatted with his friends about the buffet food.
Yu Haibara chose a particularly large buffet restaurant, which made Yuji Itadori and others exclaim in surprise. They happily selected various delicacies and set up a whole table.
Little Sheep Jiang Lai had eaten mousse cake earlier, so he was not hungry during the buffet. After a simple meal, he leaned back in his chair and pretended to play with his phone.
The reliable adult Nanami reminded him to "rest his eyes", and after hearing the little lamb's cheerful response, he stopped punishing him.
Nanami Kento knows that the brown-haired boy is in poor health, so he silently pays attention to his physical condition, but he does not impose any additional restrictions. Instead, he silently encourages him to do what he wants to do.
The programming books at home were all bought by Nanami Kento, filling up the small bookshelf in the little sheep Jiang Lai's bedroom.
Jiang Lai put on his usual smile and nestled in the innermost position of his seat. He did not open the game, but first had a private chat with his science friends, especially Jinpei Matsuda who appeared in the world of curse arts today.
Jinpei Matsuda seemed to be in high spirits. Probably every adult has kept the dream of adventuring in another world in their youth. In addition, Matsuda was an extrovert and a troublemaker by nature. He was not afraid of danger. He also made an appointment with Jiang Lai to invite him to come over and play next time he was free.
Jiang Lai: ...As expected of Matsuda!!
After hearing this, Kurosawa Akira quietly sent a message saying: [Brother Jiang Lai, our research institute just cracked a big project a while ago. We are currently in a period of adjustment and rest. Basically, we don’t have any major work and sit in the office every day.]
The other party didn't say anything directly, but Jiang Lai thought about it and knew what the other party was thinking, so he replied: [Are there any new breakthroughs? Zhao is great! If you are not busy recently, I will ask Xiao Zhao to help next time.]
[No problem, Jiang Lai brother.] Kurosawa Akira replied quickly, followed by a cute picture of a nodding little snake with gray-green eyes and silver-white scales, which seemed to be drawn by himself.
Jiang Lai: ...It seems that Xiao Zhao has been ready to make his debut and has even drawn the fan art!
Zhu Fu Jingguang seemed to have taken on a big case recently and was quite busy, so Jiang Lai did not disturb him and just reported that he was safe.
After chatting with his science friends, Jiang Lai opened the official comic website and prepared to browse the latest comic updates.
This comic update is still very timely, perfectly running through this mission, and finally ending with the scene of Yuzan Gojo Hisahi leaving.
From the comics, Jiang Lai saw what was happening on the real side. He really had provoked Ryomen Sukuna and was chopped down mercilessly.
Jiang Lai roughly browsed through the comics and then opened the Chinese forum of the new series.
[The new elves of the little sheep are so cute! Unfortunately, during the previous training period, there were only distant silhouettes, and I couldn’t see the specific appearance of those elves clearly. It seems that they are original elves of the magic outside the game.
In this mission, a demonic horned wolfhound appeared at close range. It looked so cool with a cigarette in its mouth and its head held high! I felt like I should wear a pair of sunglasses like a gang leader, hahaha.]
Jiang Lai couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips when he saw this sentence, thinking: He is indeed a forum netizen who sees through everything. He is so sharp that he can see Matsuda's true nature - Sunglasses!
However, perhaps because the original form is sunglasses, the original form has to remain in the scientific world and does not appear in the image of the world of magic.
Jiang Lai was joking in his mind.
[I love the new big dog!
He is handsome and reliable. Although he looks a bit careless, his attitude as a life mentor gives people a particularly convincing feeling.
After all, Matsuda is a very capable policeman, Jiang Lai thought. So even if he behaves leisurely, he always has a protective aura.
[Later, Leshen came out and looked so cool!! They dared to come out with anything pretending to be Leshen, fakes are no match for the real thing, Leshen's momentum is unmatched!! (Screaming)
As expected, Lai Shen is extremely cool no matter what style he draws.
The attitude of God loving the world in the previous part is so cute, and the indifferent and powerful attitude of the amnesiac boss now is also so cute. One person can eat in many ways and get many grains. He is worthy of my recommendation!! 】
[The above person gave a perfect explanation for the official behavior of making money by having multiple accounts (dog head) hahahahaha]
[Well, to be honest... when I saw the cursed spirit in this mission mastered the illusion skill, I felt something was wrong. There really is a big knife behind it! !
Wuwu Fushiguro-nii——Wuwu Raishin——As expected of the underworld battle, he never forgets to kill anyone with one strike in any dungeon (referring to killing me outside the screen)
I didn't have time to tell you my name back then, and now it's meaningless to tell you my name.
But even so, facing the gradually receding back, I still couldn't help but let out a faint breath from between my lips and teeth, as if to give this thousand-year-old stubbornness a place to stay...】
[It hurts, it hurts so much QAQ, what kind of boomerang is this that has spanned thousands of years and has broken through the dimensional wall and stuck in my body!! (vomiting three liters of blood)]
[Look at it from a positive perspective. The Fuhuding trio has finally reunited after a thousand years! What is on the seat is no longer a bunch of knotweed flowers that fell in vain, but a passionate young man who is actually standing in front of you.
"I've been waiting for you—"
“Sorry for the wait!!”
I was so moved by that scene, I took screenshots like crazy, the trio is the best! I hope they won’t be stabbed again in the new series (crying)]
[However, it is better for Lai Shen to take the finger than for the real people and the regulatory authorities to take it. Although time has changed, I still believe in Lai Shen——! ]
[Ryomen Sukuna has also appeared. It seems that the Sukuna master in the new series is a mystery teller (dog head)
The master, the only character who has never lost his memory in the past thousand years, took advantage of the information gap to mock Hisahito and Ododo. hhh]
[The Riddler is okay, hahaha!
However, Yuji Itadori's understanding of death at that time also revealed his identity. Toranomon should be the good side of death, so he felt that the word death was intimate and pursued the correct death. 】
[The man with light blue eyes from the Gojo family appears again! He looks handsome even when he blocks with his folding fan!
To be honest, the name Gojo Kyu-Maple Court is a little tongue-twisting 2333, but she is pretty, and she has a simple low ponytail with a jade hairpin!!
A kind of (comparison) gentle, elegant and aloof nobleman like a Jiangnan beauty. I always have some inexplicable hallucinations of white and black, probably because of my squinty eyes (?]
[This person said he loves ancient books and is still looking for ancient books. Speaking of ancient books, my first reaction is the one by Lai Shen (lost in thought)
Could it be that the real purpose of Jiufengyuan is Lai Shen's book? As a member of the regulatory committee, do you think it is a derivative of time and space?
I don't think Lai Shen and he have ever met each other, but it is possible that he has heard about Lai Shen from somewhere else and knows that Lai Shen has such an ancient book. After all, he is a guy who has lived for a thousand years.
[Who knows, maybe he really loves books? From what Nanami and the others said, Gojo Kyufuin is very familiar with the contents of various ancient books, so he might have some real talent.
As a person who loves appearance, I put a layer of good-guy filter on Jiufengyuan (start painting.jpg)】
[I laughed so hard, isn't a beautiful villain also very interesting! And I agree with a forum friend above, I always feel that this person is a bit white and black.
The feeling that Lai Shen gave me back then was the gentleness of God’s love for the world, like the warm spring breeze, but this Jiu Feng Yuan gave me a feeling that there was a depth beneath the gentleness... It’s a very inexplicable intuition hh】
[White-faced black can also be a good person! He is the squinty-eyed monster among the good guys (gesture) But I met him thousands of years ago, so I don’t know the details. 】
[The words that reminded the little sheep were reasonable yet a little strange. There is not enough information at the moment, so it is difficult to analyze.
I may be overthinking this, it's probably just a simple reminder to the first graders in junior high school not to be deceived by kidnapping or anything like that.
But then again, isn’t the Regulator the biggest scammer group? ! (Tactical retreat)
Jie's tragic experience of being cheated when he was a child should be printed out and posted on the streets to tell everyone that this is a negative example of not downloading anti-fraud apps! 】
[The ubiquitous national anti-fraud app has appeared! The last time I saw this in the Chinese forum was last time.]
[My focus is on the latter part, which is that Jiu Feng Yuan does not need to call others by his last name, but by his first name.
Although the reason that Gojo Satoru is too representative is reasonable, I also feel that there is a point - he does not have such a strong sense of family identity with the Gojo surname. 】
Seeing this, Jiang Lai stopped browsing and pondered for a while.
Is the sense of family identity not that strong? It seems that I do have some sense of family identity.
After all, people who have lived too long either become increasingly stubborn and stubborn in their thinking, or become increasingly indifferent to everything around them.
Judging from the fact that Gojo Kyukazein did not seize power and did not show any special protection for the Gojo family, perhaps the other party is the latter, and has a relatively cold feeling towards the Gojo family and does not have any real family honor and sense of belonging.
Or maybe there is some hidden story behind it.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lai stopped browsing the latest plot discussion posts and exited the forum page, returning to the desktop to open his email.
He planned to chat with Gojo Satoru for a few more sentences and ask him if he had any more information about Gojo Kyukazein.
Before opening his mobile email, Jiang Lai thought about whether there was anything else he wanted to talk about.
According to the revelations in the comics, Nanami Kento has already told Gojo Satoru about the incident with the cursed spirit encountered today, so there is no need for him to mention it again.
And after Ryomen Sukuna's comments surrounding death and the final addition by the wolfhound Jinpei Matsuda, Itadori Yuji and the others will probably contact Gojo Sensei and tell Gojo Satoru those conversations.
After Gojo Satoru heard this, he probably thought of it as related to [existence] and then asked himself. Then I can discuss more about this part with Gojo Satoru.
With this plan in mind, Jiang Lai entered the password to unlock it, opened his mobile mailbox, and saw the new email notification from Gojo Satoru, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Huh? He actually sent me a message? Did Yuji Itadori and the others already tell Gojo Satoru those words?
I clearly didn't see Fu Huzhi and the others looking at their phones; they were all eating enthusiastically.
Come to think of it, I don't know where Gojo Satoru is right now. There must be a time difference abroad, so maybe it's dark over there now.
Thinking casually in his mind, Jiang Lai opened the new email and looked at the contents inside.
[Jay seems to be in some trouble.
About two months ago, he told me not to contact him recently, so I stopped messaging him. But Jay never replied to me since then, and I haven't seen him since then.
A few days ago, I changed my account number and randomly sent him a message pretending to be a sales promotion advertisement. I still haven't read it. I wanted to play a little prank on him.
Really, what on earth is Jay doing? There has been no news for such a long time. It would be nice if he could just give me an end.
It's rare for me to be so patient, but now I'm almost out of patience.
The situation overseas is a bit troublesome. It's hard to explain in one email. I can only say that I can't go back for the time being. It will probably take some time. I'm so annoyed.
I didn't want to look for you at first, because your situation is a bit complicated. But in this kind of situation, it seems that there is no one else I can rely on.
Well...anyway, if you have any news about Jie, please get back to me?]
