Chapter 13

Strictly speaking, the place where Yoshino Junpei was located was not an interrogation room, but a small room that was temporarily converted from a dormitory.

Because although he is the only clue now, he is just an ordinary student who has no spells. The spell world usually does not communicate with the outside world, and its power is not to the point of covering the sky with one hand. In any case, it will not completely ignore the law and directly resort to lynching.

However, from the perspective of the Jujutsu High School, Yoshino Junpei's experiences over the past two days were indeed very suspicious.

The movie theater incident now seems to be the earliest time that the Stitch-Face Curse Spirit can be traced back to. The boy's actions at school later, as well as Ryomen Sukuna's finger that appeared out of nowhere, can almost prove that Yoshino Junpei definitely has some connection with the Stitch-Face Curse Spirit that is not yet known to the high school.

The person in charge of the questioning initially thought that Yoshino Junpei was the kind of middle school boy who was deceived by the curse spirit's sweet words. And every time he hinted at this, Yoshino Junpei's expression would become extremely vicious, as if he wanted to sew up his face and let the curse spirit die.

But when asked what happened, he refused to tell me. He seemed contradictory and suspicious.

Only a soft-hearted person like Ijichi would think that Yoshino Junpei's behavior was simply due to his mother's death.

After all, from the information we have collected so far, he used to live with his mother and they had a very good relationship.

In this situation, when my mother was suddenly attacked and killed by a cursed spirit, what else could I feel except hatred?

Unlike love, hate is very simple.

Gojo Satoru could tell at a glance that the other person was thinking about something more complicated than simple hatred.

Facing the boy who was staring at him, Gojo Satoru pulled a stool, then sat on it with his legs crossed, put his arms on the back of the chair, and greeted him nonchalantly: "Good morning."

Yoshino Junpei observed him for two seconds and slowly said, "Are you Gojo Satoru?"

Gojo Satoru deliberately asked vaguely, "What did the cursed spirit tell you?"

The boy shook his head: "It was classmate Yuji who told me. He said you are the strongest."

"He's right."

Gojo Satoru looked at the boy in front of him and pointed out, "You are easier to communicate with than I thought."

"Please excuse me, this is just a trick to make sure I see you."

Gojo Satoru is a very busy man and you won't see him unless it's something urgent.

Although Yoshino Junpei feels that his problem is important enough, he cannot make it public, so he can only wait for Gojo Satoru to come to him in this clumsy and passive way.

After getting the desired result, Yoshino Junpei thought for two seconds and finally asked, "Mr. Gojo, have you ever killed anyone?"

Gojo Satoru rested his hand on his cheek and smiled meaningfully: "You're asking this right at the start?"

Yoshino Junpei said to himself: "I have been waiting for you."

Most of the behaviors before adolescence are impulsive, and may even have a bit of a broken jar flavor.

After getting away from the condition that "every powerful person around him is a curse", Yoshino Junpei also rethought what happened in the past two days.

There is nothing to discuss about the real person's affairs. Yoshino Junpei hates it and is willing to pay any price in exchange for the other party's annihilation. Of course, he will not keep any information about the other party for himself.

He was now thinking about another cursed spirit.

"Mr. Gojo, do you think it is possible to come back from the dead?"

The answer to this question is very important to Yoshino Junpei, as it determines his next course of action.

So before everything is too late, he needs an authority to help him check.

Under the blindfold, Gojo Satoru's pupils shrank imperceptibly for a moment.

"Has anyone ever told you anything like that?"

Yoshino Junpei said stiffly: "Please answer my question."

Gojo Satoru pondered for a moment, and recalled seriously for the first time: "In the world of curses, there are immortal curses. There are cases where you accidentally curse an important person and force their soul to stay."

He counted on his fingers and said, "Cursed flesh should be considered resurrection? Oh, yes, I heard that there is a curser who can make the dead person rely on him and use their power as long as he gets their body."

Just as a glimmer of hope began to appear on Yoshino Junpei's face, Gojo Satoru suddenly changed the subject, his tone becoming cold and almost inhuman.

"But if you mean the kind of resurrection where I can have dinner with you as usual, argue with you when I'm bored, and over time my face will gradually become full of wrinkles and my hair will gradually turn gray..."

"No, not in the past few thousand years."

People are always very cautious about life, and spells involving life are always closely related to taboos.

For people themselves, whether they like it or not, society divides them into different classes. Those at the top of the pyramid can even deprive the lives of lower-level people without punishment.

However, to the illusory but real "God", life itself is equal beyond imagination.

When God makes a deal with you, he will not treat you differently because of your family background, your appearance, or even whether you are human.

For example, the spell of the first-level sorcerer Meimei can force the crow to carry out a suicide attack. It is a last-ditch effort at the cost of one's life, and basically no one except Gojo Satoru can take it.

This is the power that the crow's life can buy.

To humans, the importance of crow lives is self-evident.

But in reality, the value of humans themselves and the crows that are despised by humans is not as different as imagined to "God".

All of the above theories are based on the premise of sacrificing one's life.

No one knows what the cost will be in return.

Based on the two questions Yoshino Junpei asked earlier, Gojo Satoru could actually roughly guess what had happened to the boy and who should be the one to discuss this taboo issue with him.

And this brings up another question.

Gojo Satoru has seen the opponent's unlimited technique used in reverse, and usually, only one technique will be engraved in a person's body.

As for unusual situations——

When Gojo Satoru thought about this, he suddenly realized: Yes, Curse was a container in his previous life.

Gojo Satoru, whose thoughts began to grow wildly and uncontrollably, paused for two seconds, unable to suppress the urge to have a second round of debate with Nanami Kento.

So an hour later, Nanami Kento, who was writing a report, saw a familiar figure appear at his window.

Nanami Kento reluctantly opened the window: "May I ask why you came back...?"

"I have a new guess as to why the cursed spirits have unlimited spells."

Nanami Kento's expression was numb: "Oh, really? Then what is your new guess?"

Gojo Satoru, with his usual "I'm going to do something big" expression, came up to Nanami Kento and whispered mysteriously:

"Tell me, is there a possibility that the cursed spirit is actually the vessel of my ancestor?"
