Chapter 63 New Technique!
As Jiang Lai had guessed before, when it comes to the part involving himself and Gojo Satoru, the comic was not released in full, but was shown in a misleading way.
Continuing from Jiang Lai's unfamiliar expression in the previous chapter, this chapter clearly depicts the details of Gojo Satoru's facial expression when he heard the words. His blue eyes surged with huge waves, reflecting the indifferent attitude of the black-haired young man in front of him.
The next few frames gradually transition to pure black.
On the other side, there was the silhouette of a white-haired young man walking out of the alley. He had his hands in his pockets, and his posture was the same as usual, his tall figure was as straight as a pine tree, and the blindfold he put on again covered half of his face, and the shadow cast by the building next to him blurred his expression, making it impossible to recognize him.
Immediately afterwards, the next scene suddenly changed to Yuji Itadori and others on the other side.
The time in this chapter of the comic is December 25, 2018, which is Christmas. The first-year and second-year groups of Tokyo Jujutsu High School gather together for dinner, and it looks quite lively.
Yuji Itadori said: "I originally planned to invite Mr. Gojo to have a party together, but Mr. Gojo said that he already had an appointment, so let's just have some fun together--"
"Yeah." Zenin Maki didn't look surprised, "He's not free every Christmas."
"That's right." Beside him, Shinji Zenin nodded as well. She is also a member of the second-year group at Jujutsu High School.
Nanako and Mimiko are more talented and learn faster, and in order to balance the grade students, they are now in the third grade group of technical high school.
The third-year team of Tokyo High School was sent out to visit Kyoto High School for Christmas, so they are not here at the moment.
"Ah? Every year?" Kugizaki Norose was a little surprised to hear this, and raised her eyebrows and complained, "Is Gojo-sensei so popular? Although I admit that he is indeed good-looking, but that personality - seriously, is he really invited in advance every year??"
"No." Zenin Maki paused for a few seconds before saying, "Maybe he is waiting for someone."
——Gojo Satoru didn’t tell the people around him who he was waiting for, but Zenin Maki had some guesses in his mind.
She always remembered the mysterious demon who led her and her sister out of the Zenin family, and she also knew that the other party had a good relationship with Gojo. After the astral plasma incident, the mysterious demon never appeared again.
Gojo, Getsu, and Ieiri-senpai seemed to have become more mature overnight. They performed well, and no one else noticed their changes.
However, the sensitive sisters in the Zen temple who were nearby at the time were quick to notice something, and they both had some vague impressions of the future in their minds.
They were too young at the time to understand why. As she grew older, some incredible guesses slowly emerged in Zenin Maki's mind.
Perhaps the maturity of Gojo-senpai and others and the vague future image in his mind are related to that mysterious demon. And the reason why the demon has not appeared is a certain price.
The person that Gojo-sensei was waiting for should be the mysterious demon. Zenin Maki guessed this in her heart, but she did not say it out loud.
She was very smart and could sense the secret without being pointed out. Therefore, she simply mentioned it twice and did not speak out her guess.
I wonder if Gojo-sensei will be waiting for that person this Christmas. Zenin really wants to look out the window. Maybe it's some kind of love story, she also misses that dark blue figure and looks forward to meeting him again one day.
The screen follows Zenin Maki's gaze and turns to the window. Snowflakes begin to fall from the sky, and against the solemn and pure white background, the pages gradually turn pure white.
The next scene is that Nanami Kento suddenly received a text message, and Gojo Satoru brought the brown-haired boy to see Nanami.
The following part of the story is the same as what Jiang Lai experienced, and ends with him choosing a school.
The amount of information revealed in this part was not large for Jiang Lai, and there was nothing that required detailed analysis, but he still symbolically glanced at the forum.
[Wuwuwu Raishen actually lost his memory!! I'm really scared, he and Gojo are not really going to go their separate ways, or even become enemies!! No, I really can't stand it, if the two of them turn against each other in the future, how sad will Gojo-sensei feel QAQ]
[So sad... Why is this happening? Amnesia is bad civilization. Wuwu——Teacher Gojo, hurry up and take Lai Shen to have his brain checked! ]
[Fuck, what's wrong with his brain? The atmosphere is completely gone hahahaha——But to be honest, I feel that Gojo will not give up like this. He will definitely find a way to help Raishen recover.]
[Am I the only one paying attention to the new character? Gojo-sensei said he is a lamb, haha, what a cute nickname! I didn’t expect the white long-haired cat to pick up another student. He really walks around and picks up students everywhere hhh]
[But the only one who was persecuted was Nana Ming, haha! By the way, the high school chosen by the new character seems to be the school where Junpei attends in the original novel. Is Junpei in the new series okay? Should the timeline of the plot in this series be adjusted? ]
[I don't know what happened, but since the relevant scenes were shown, there should be some plot development... Is there something special about this school? Unlike the original, this time the school has become a middle school with both junior high and high schools.]
[It's not like the real person will appear again and persecute two people at once! ! I just fell in love with this new character, the lamb, is he going to die in this chapter? ? ]
[Not really, this is too weird and too sudden - I think there is still room for exploration of the new character. He seems to have a distinct personality and a bit of a story (contemplation). In short, I am looking forward to his awakening technique! ]
Jiang Lai: I am also looking forward to awakening to a new technique.jpg
He put away his phone and thought in his mind - if it was just an introduction to new characters, the comic could have ended with the introduction of the little sheep and then handed over to Nanami, and there would be no need to elaborate on the rest.
However, the comic also describes which school I chose.
Is there something special about this school?
In such a dangerous world, it is better to think too much than too little. Jiang Lai made up his mind to explore the world after entering the school.
——
After the short New Year winter vacation, Jiang Lai, wearing a sheepskin, enrolled in Kanagawa Prefectural Satosa School and officially became a transfer student in the first grade class 1 of junior high school.
The junior high school curriculum in Japan is different from that in China, but Jiang Lai is an adult at heart despite his junior high school appearance, so no matter how big the difference is, he can adapt quickly. Moreover, before entering school, Jiang Lai also went through the textbooks to understand the situation in advance.
Because he was a transfer student, his classmates initially kept a certain distance from him.
Jiang Lai himself didn't care much about it. It just so happened that he took advantage of his free time and wandered around the school after class and during the school's afternoon club time, trying to find something.
But after turning it around a few times, he didn't feel anything special.
By chance, he met Yoshino Junpei, who was thin and had bangs covering half of his face.
——The other party is still alive here and has not dropped out of school. It seems that he has not met the special curse spirit master, and the story of the young fish chapter has not happened.
He was holding a large pile of things, apparently moving some documents, and when he took a stone without noticing his feet, he suddenly fell to the ground, revealing several bruises hidden under his long sleeves.
The little sheep Jiang Lai happened to be passing by at the time, so he squatted down to help Yoshino Shunpei pick up the things and then handed them back to him.
He noticed the marks on Yoshino Junpei's arm and knew that it was probably the mark of school bullying. But after all, the two did not know each other at all and this was their first meeting, so he could not say much.
Yoshino Junpei also seemed to not want anyone to see the marks, so he quickly adjusted his sleeves to cover the marks, whispered a thank you to the little sheep Jiang Lai who helped pick up things, and then left.
The two didn't communicate much.
Until a week later.
That day was Monday. After the club activities ended in the afternoon, the little sheep Jiang Lai was about to go home with his schoolbag.
Nanami Kento's residence is not far from here, so the little sheep Jiang Lai doesn't need to be picked up by him and can walk home by himself.
Their club ended quite late, and Jiang Lai also went back to the classroom. Therefore, when he locked the door, there was almost no one in the teaching building.
After the students leave school, the usually bustling teaching building becomes exceptionally quiet. That is why even the slightest sound is enough to attract people's attention.
Jiang Lai, who was carrying his schoolbag and locking the classroom door, then heard the sound of something falling from several floors above, as if something had happened.
This school has both junior high school and senior high school, but there are not many classes, so they are all in the same teaching building. The first, second and third floors are for junior high school, and the fourth, fifth and sixth floors are for senior high school.
Jiang Lai paused when he heard the sound. Just as he put away the key, he heard a piercing scream.
"ah--!!"
The screaming then stopped abruptly.
Jiang Lai's eyes flashed, he threw the schoolbag on his back at the door, paused for half a second, then picked up the schoolbag again and held it in his hand - a schoolbag full of things can actually be considered a weapon.
Go up and take a look. Jiang Lai made up his mind. On the one hand, it was to save people, and on the other hand, it was to obtain intelligence as soon as possible.
He walked briskly and kept a cool head, guessing possible scenarios.
Either it was a murder by a human or it was a cursed spirit. Jiang Lai had two options planned in his mind.
Although he moved quickly, he landed silently, his posture as light as a dragonfly skimming the water. The abilities he had acquired through training in the world of science were now even more advanced.
Listening carefully to what was happening, Jiang Lai rushed up the stairs to the fifth floor.
Just as he stepped onto the fifth floor, a figure came staggering down the corridor - a thin boy with semi-long black hair, panting heavily, and he stumbled out, almost falling down.
Yoshino Junpei!
Behind him, a monster with spider-like arms and legs almost occupied the entire corridor, and next to it, there were cursed spirits of all sizes!
The corridor walls were splattered with blood, and the bodies of several tall and strong students were lying on the ground. From their mutilated appearance, it was obvious that they were killed by the cursed spirits.
...Why are there so many cursed spirits suddenly appearing? Jiang Lai had a question in his mind.
Before this, Nanami Kento had specially investigated these schools. Logically speaking, the negative emotions here were not enough to give rise to so many cursed spirits.
Could it be that these are cursed spirits from other places? But why?
Yoshino Junpei noticed the figure of the brown-haired boy in front of him. He still remembered the little boy who helped him pick up things not long ago. At this moment, he raised his voice as high as possible and shouted with a trembling voice: "That... run, run--!!"
His limbs went limp, and he nearly fell to the ground after running a few steps forward.
The brown-haired boy stepped forward and grabbed him neatly, pulling him behind him. His attitude was quite calm, and he even winked playfully:
"Classmate, my price is very expensive, remember to pay later."
Yoshino Junpei's mind went blank: "W-what?"
However, the brown-haired junior didn't reply, but just said, "Did you bring your cell phone? Call the police first."
This situation must be reported to others as soon as possible. The police must have people from the world of sorcery, so the sorcerers can be notified quickly of various curse incidents.
Humans usually cannot outrun cursed spirits. Jiang Lai knew this.
He poured his cursed power into the schoolbag he was carrying, intending to use the bag as a temporary curse tool to delay until others arrived.
However, at this moment, he heard clear music coming from his mobile phone - it was the background sound of the elf adventure game starting.
"?" Wait, I didn't touch the phone, why did this game automatically——
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through Jiang Lai's mind, and he suddenly realized something. He quickly took out his mobile phone and looked down.
After switching identities, the outer shell of the mobile phone also changed. The mobile phone in the sheep vest was covered with a plastic soft sheep horn mobile phone shell, which looked particularly cute. At this time, the page for selecting elves in the game was jumping on the screen.
At the same time, he gradually realized his own abilities.
