Chapter 146 The 1.8 billion pot has arrived late

Megumi Fushiguro, Norose Kugizaki, and Yuji Itadori returned to the Jujutsu High School holding the cursed tool. They were sensitive to the shadow behind this silent gift, so their expressions were quite serious.

When they first analyzed the Supervisory Commission, they knew how widespread this organization was, but they didn't expect that even the Zenin family, one of the three major families, was under tight control.

Jiang Lai thinks it is a good thing that they have this awareness, because it will help them to be much calmer and not rush into exploring secrets in a rash and impulsive manner.

"Come to think of it, since Mrs. Zenin had already planned to give it to us, why didn't she let us take it away from the study room?" As they stepped into the gate of the Polytechnic, Kugizaki No Rose seemed to suddenly remember something and asked, "She gave it to us before she left. She must have noticed our purpose."

"Maybe it's a coincidence?" Yuji Itadori put one hand on his chin and gave a thumbs up, "Or maybe after seeing that we were the visitors, he thought we were reliable, so he gave it to us!"

Megumi Fushiguro: "...Perhaps because taking and giving are two different ways." He paused for a second and then said, "However, I always feel that they would not give things away casually - perhaps there is an invisible price behind this cursed tool."

Yes, this is part of the deal, thought Jiang Lai, who was wearing the shell of a brown-haired boy. There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. Every windfall has a price tag behind it.

The golden cursed corpse with independent consciousness could not hide for too long, and Naoya's cursed corpse originally settled in the Jujutsu High School for the purpose of rationalization, so after returning to the high school, the little sheep Jiang Lai went to find Principal Yega Masamichi.

Zenin Naoya, who was at odds with the little sheep Jiang Lai, had a very grumpy face at first, but next to the elf Shikigami summoned by Jiang Lai, his game addiction kicked in and he stopped being crazy and followed them all the way to the principal's office.

"Principal Night Moth - there's a strange mutant here." Little Sheep Jiang Lai poked his head out of the office door and waved, "Come on!"

He exuded the youthful vigor and cheerfulness, was not afraid of strangers at all, and showed no restraint when facing the unfamiliar principal.

Ye Mo Zheng Dao was reviewing documents and raised his head when he heard the sound.

He knew who the brown-haired boy in front of him was - Kento Nanami introduced his identity to him before he brought him here.

He is a survivor rescued by Wu from the village destruction accident. He has some physical defects but is a genius boy with excellent skills.

Before Nanami Kento went out on a mission, he was still a little worried about the brown-haired boy, and explained a lot to Principal Yega in a calm tone.

Gojo and Nanami are both very gentle people at heart. Yega Masamichi's expression softened a little. When he saw the brown-haired boy waving, he paused for a moment, but still stood up and walked over.

"Okay, what is it? If it's the room at the back, it contains some cursed corpses I made..."

Before he finished speaking, he stepped out of the office door and noticed the golden cursed skeleton interacting with the panda elf shikigami in the corridor.

Ye Mo Zheng Dao was naturally aware of the cursed skeletons he had created. The cursed skeleton in front of him that seemed to have self-awareness was definitely not created by him!

His expression suddenly became serious: "Where did this cursed corpse come from?"

"Zenyuan family." Little sheep Jiang Lai blinked his eyes, "He is too noisy, I don't like it, so I thought of handing this weird thing over."

"Hey, you bastard, who are you calling a weirdo?" Zenin Naoya glared at the brown-haired boy with a rude tone.

Yega Masamichi focused his attention on the word "Zenin Family". He was shocked. He was extremely surprised that there was someone in the Zenin Family who could create an independent consciousness cursed corpse.

No, that's not right. It should be impossible. He had never heard of other masters of cursed corpses in the world of curse.

In order to make the cursed skeleton have independent consciousness, a soul must be created. However, in addition to creating a soul, there is also a very unpopular method of stuffing the soul of a living person into the cursed skeleton.

...But that's rare, and I've only heard of it. After all, if you want to separate the soul of a living person, you must use a special spell.

Ye Mo Zhengdao's gaze fell on the Curse Corpse who was having a meaningless argument with the brown-haired boy. He sensed the Curse Corpse's own cursed power and knew that this was not a prank.

...Yes, even though the brown-haired boy was brought back by Wu, he shouldn’t have inherited Wu’s bad taste.

Since Gojo Satoru graduated, Yega Masamichi rarely encountered pranks. Back then, Gojo and Geto, together with Nozomi, always enthusiastically did all kinds of low-level pranks, making the empty campus noisy.

At that time, he was bullied by Gojo and several other people every day, but now, he misses those days a little bit.

Being able to see the youthful and brilliant smiles on the faces of boys and girls is the best reward for him as a school principal.

His thoughts were distracted for only a moment, and Ye Mo Zheng Dao quickly came back to his senses. He stared at the cursed corpse and speculated in his mind about the most likely place.

Rather than believing that someone outside had learned how to make independent cursed bones, he would rather believe that it was the Zenin family's special cursed tools - after all, large feudal families always stockpiled various cursed tools.

The cursed corpse in front of me should be a real human soul, but I don’t know what the Zen temple family means by doing this.

While Ye Moth was thinking, Jiang Lai the Little Sheep turned around and looked at him again, saying, "By the way, although I was planning to hand this weird thing in, I always feel that it would be a bit of a loss to hand it in for nothing."

He smiled slyly and continued, "How about this, Principal Ye Moth, can you ask Mr. Gojo to stop asking me for the money he owes you?"

Yega Zhengdao was a little surprised to hear this. He said, "Wu, what debt do you want this kid to pay?"

"Ah, that's right, Mr. Gojo said I owed him 1.8 billion." Little Sheep Jiang Lai half lowered his head and counted on his fingers, "So I have been working hard to make money to pay him back, but I found that no matter how hard I try, it's never enough..."

Ye Mo Zheng Dao: Asking a helpless teenager for 1.8 billion is too much!

But considering Wu's personality, this must be a prank. But playing such a joke on a first-year junior high school student is really...

Principal Ye Moth rubbed his temples with a headache, then soothed him, "Don't take it to heart. That's just how Wu is. He's probably just joking with you."

"Really?" Little Sheep Jiang Lai raised his dark eyes and blinked slowly, "But——"

"Well, I'll tell Wu about it." Principal Yega stepped forward, bent down and patted the boy's shoulder. "The Cursed Corpse you sent over is very valuable. I think my reputation as the principal is worth the 1.8 billion."

"That's great." Jiang Lai replied with a smile.

In fact, it was not Wu who was playing a prank, but he was playing a prank in reverse. Jiang Lai laughed inwardly, it was rare for him to have some bad taste. However, it also put a perfect end to the joke between him and himself about "1.8 billion".

Naoya, who turned into a Cursed Corpse, followed Yaga Masamichi without struggling, because he had already prepared himself mentally. He knew that if he wanted to gain a foothold and not be suspected by the enemy, he must collude with the "Cursed Corpse Master" Yaga Masamichi.

Although Zenoin Naoya didn't want others to know what he looked like at the moment, he still had to say what he had to say.

He planned to explain the situation to Yaga Masamichi, including the words that Mrs. Zenin entrusted to him before she left - yes, Mrs. Zenin said something specifically to Naoya before she left.

Mrs. Zenin intends to make full use of Naoya's leaving home and let him convey some information about the Zenin family, and also communicate with the Tokyo Jujutsu High School to reach some kind of secret cooperation.

Jiang Lai also knew this, so he waved his hand and prepared to leave, leaving the rest to Naoya and Principal Yega.

But before leaving, he seemed to have thought of something and turned around and said, "By the way, Principal Yega, I heard from Sister Kugizaki that there are two seniors from the Zenin family in the school - how about giving this weird thing to them later? It happens that they are all from the Zenin family, so it must be a good fit."

Yaga Masamichi replied, "Thank you for your kindness, but Maki and Mayi don't like the Zenin family and may be a little resistant to their things."

"That's where the value lies." Little Sheep Jiang Lai said with a smile, "It's because of the resistance that we can attack as if we were facing an enemy. Isn't that the perfect way to achieve the purpose of training?"

——It means that the two of them must have beaten Naoya very hard.

Ye Moth Zhengdao: "..."

Zenin Naoya: "...You are sick, you are looking for death!"

Little Sheep Jiang Lai waved his hand briskly and ran to the stairs: "No matter what, I will not forget to inform the two seniors. I look forward to more exchanges between you~"

Ignoring the noise behind him, Jiang Lai ran out of the office building where Ye Mo Zheng Dao was at a brisk pace.

The sun is shining today, spring is coming, and everything is brewing new growth.

Jiang Lai walked all the way to the dormitory building. His eyes swept across the surrounding scenery, and his brows softened a little.

——In order for everyone to be able to enjoy the blooming of spring flowers together in the new year, we must work harder.

Now that all the clues have been collected and cooperation among all parties has begun to proceed step by step, the only thing missing is a more accurate connection.

Jiang Lai's thoughts flowed in his mind, and his expression slowly calmed down. He held the mobile phone in one hand and made subsequent plans with a calm mind.

After returning to the dormitory, I will read the comics to see if there is any more information. By the way, I will also report my safety to my science friends and thank Xiao Zhao for his help.

Then, at night, when everyone falls asleep and the environment is relatively safe, he switches back to his original form and calls out to Fushiguro Shijiro who is sleeping in the locust wood tablet, and obtains from him the unknown secret that he had promised to tell him.

I hope it can be a valuable piece of information that can confirm the next direction, string together the scattered intelligence, and turn it into an arrow pointing directly to the target.

Jiang Lai's mind was already focused on serious matters.
