Chapter 3
Let’s go back a little bit in time.
After escaping to the Shenwei Space, Bai Yun, who finally had a little breathing space, immediately lowered the matching degree and began to study the system.
I have to say, the feeling of having the match fully maximized is really intoxicating.
Experience is very important for actors. Recreating emotions that they have personally experienced is always more real than fabricating them out of thin air.
But in actual operations, there are some emotions that can only rely on imagination, otherwise you will be arrested and put in jail.
This mission is indeed a rare opportunity for Bai Yun. The only drawback may be that the full matching degree is a bit too much for him.
Even though the degree of matching has been lowered now, Bai Yun cannot immediately get rid of the emotions and memories belonging to Uchiha Obito.
Is this the trouble of experiential actors?
Perhaps it is because most of the vests provided have some dark past that is not in line with the dark values of socialism, and the system is also afraid that the host's will is not firm and he will be brainwashed into something strange. Therefore, in addition to the cheating artifact such as matching degree that can be fully upgraded with one click, the system will also provide the general background information of the vest for reference, so that more people can complete the task safely and steadily even without taking unconventional means.
The name of Hatake Kakashi began to become vague when Bai Yun tried to write a biography of Uchiha Obito and deeply explore his unknown inner world.
Bai Yun asked with a wooden face: "System, what's going on?"
【Sorry, the system doesn't understand what you are talking about. 】
“…”
Almost forgot this is an artificial retardation.
So Bai Yun started searching for "under what circumstances would cause the name of the character in the vest background to change".
In the middle, he jumped several times according to the search terms automatically completed by the system, but in the end the result was this:
[You may want to search for: Several possible results of alien vests invading the mission world]
[…Because of the existence of the rift, part of the world's data is lost, leaving a gap. Therefore, when the host's vest comes into contact with a key figure in the world and leaves him with inappropriate hints, causing him to over-think, the world will selectively complete itself according to the content of his brain-filling.]
[This behavior has the potential to further expand the rift and even shake the foundation of the world. Please be careful with your words and actions. ]
[Ding! The system found that the host has no past mission records and lacks experience. It may not be able to grasp the scale by itself. It is recommended to contact the monitoring system and make adjustments. ]
Bai Yun: “…”
Slander! This is absolutely slander!
He and Gojo Satoru only met once, and the two sides did not speak more than five sentences in total. Bai Yun himself did nothing and was just passively beaten. How could he have given the wrong hint!
And what should he say to make Gojo Satoru realize that Kakashi's last name is Gojo!
Gojo Satoru has a very wild imagination, what does this have to do with him!
Bai Yun was very dissatisfied with the system's unfair evaluation. After resolutely refusing to contact his superiors, he opened the system again and wanted to continue to study his acting skills.
But Kakashi's vague surname always attracted Bai Yun's attention, as if it was mocking his failure, making it difficult for him to calm down.
Humph, there are more than just Gojo Satoru as a key figure. It is impossible for everyone to have such divergent thinking like him. There must be some reliable and normal people!
*
One day, Gojo Satoru embraced Nanami Kento like nothing happened and introduced him to his students: "This is Nanami Kento who is no longer a salaryman. He is one of the few reliable sorcerers!"
“Please stop using that term.”
Ever since Gojo Satoru arranged for Yuji Itadori to fake his death, he has been secretly giving him remedial lessons.
However, being a sorcerer is a profession that requires the most practical experience, and one cannot become stronger steadily by just being locked in a small dark room.
Even if you have the best personal trainer, it won’t work.
As for field work, even though Gojo Satoru has done his best to make time for it, there will still be times when outside help is needed.
For example, now.
After both sides introduced themselves and had a brief discussion about which was more shitty, job or being a sorcerer, which was considered a preliminary acquaintance, Nanami Kento signaled Itadori Yuji to go find Ijichi first, as he had something to say to Gojo Satoru.
After sending the other party away, Nanami Kento turned around, looked at Gojo Satoru who looked normal, and asked, "Is it okay for you to leave at this time?"
Gojo Satoru is the most powerful sorcerer of his time. Although he usually works as a teacher in a technical high school and looks very idle, he actually has a heavy burden on his shoulders and often needs to travel all over Japan and even the world.
Although Nanami Kento (because he was harassed) had promised Gojo Satoru early on that he would help take care of the students when he was not around, but then a large number of special cursed spirits appeared - according to common sense, the higher-ups should have tried their best to ensure that Gojo Satoru, as a trump card, could appear in time no matter when an accident occurred, thereby reducing the tasks assigned to him.
So Nanami Kento actually didn't expect that he would really be needed.
But in fact, for some reason, the tasks assigned to Gojo Satoru not only showed no sign of decreasing, but today a new task was added that required him to go abroad.
If something really happened, even Gojo Satoru wouldn't be able to return quickly to defend.
This seems to be something that can be explained simply by "leaders are all idiots".
"You mean the mission given by the higher-ups?"
Gojo Satoru smiled and explained, "I've already passed that on to Yuta."
“…I see.”
Although Gojo Satoru often throws work to others, slacks off himself, and enjoys watching others go crazy over the sudden overtime, this time it was obviously not just because of this.
Although the curve of Gojo Satoru's mouth remained the same, Nanami Kento, who was familiar with the other party, could clearly perceive that the man was actually angry.
And he was very angry.
"Among the high-ranking officials in the world of curse, there are undercover agents who are in private contact with curse casters or curse spirits."
Previously, when the higher-ups took advantage of Gojo Satoru's absence and assigned almost impossible tasks to the first-year students, which led to the death of Yuji Itadori, he just thought that the higher-ups were cowardly and wanted to get rid of Sukuna's container while the situation was still under control.
But now, with the sudden appearance of three special-grade cursed spirits beyond their control, he was sent abroad, and the mission he was assigned to was not something that was absolutely necessary for him, which was almost a blatant attempt to get rid of him.
The feeling of being plotted against must not be a good one. Nanami Kento glanced at Gojo Satoru's clenched fist and nodded: "I understand."
"So, what are your plans for today?"
Gojo Satoru pondered for a moment and said, "Hmm... so my favorite dessert shop has a new product for sale today."
"Please come back and work hard."
Gojo Satoru adapted well to Nanami Kento's cold face: "Don't say that. I should be overseas now. Of course I can't show up in public and go on missions openly."
"Then please don't queue up at the dessert shop."
Gojo Satoru said with a hint of pride: "Regarding that, I asked Ijichi to go, so it's okay!"
Not only do I have to assist with today's work, but I also have to queue up to buy snacks for Gojo Satoru...
Ichichi's salary should really be increased.
Or simply change his position from assistant supervisor to Gojo Satoru's breeder, and maximize his salary and status.
If he could effectively restrain Gojo Satoru's excess energy, Nanami Kento thought that the people above him would be willing to raise their heads one more level.
Nanami Kento looked at the time and it was already time for work: "Then I'll leave first."
Gojo Satoru waved his hand and said, "Have a safe trip. By the way, there are a lot of special-grade cursed spirits out there recently, so remember not to die accidentally."
Gojo Satoru always lacks the usual considerations when speaking.
This did not cause any trouble to Gojo Satoru - he would not consider the feelings of those he disliked. As for those close to him, they would get angry when he crossed the line occasionally, but they would always forgive him in the end.
This is Gojo Satoru's way of trust.
Nanami Kento, who is trusted in this way, would like to express his gratitude.
Especially when Gojo Satoru's seemingly unreasonable requests really came true.
While investigating the mysterious deaths of three middle school students in a cinema, Kento Nanami chose to act separately from Yuji Itadori, and subsequently clashed with the Stitch-faced Special Curse Spirit alone.
After realizing that he could not cause any real damage to the cursed spirit, Nanami Kento used a trick to deliver a final blow and successfully escaped, but he was still seriously injured.
I really encountered...
Kento Nanami hid in an empty bathroom, pressing the wound with one hand to try to stop the bleeding, while the other hand still held the weapon, his eyes fixed on the door.
And there is more than one.
Nanami Kento couldn't hear the footsteps, but the other party didn't really bother to hide his presence.
Perhaps in order to avoid leaving too many traces or even causing unnecessary trouble, the opponent suppressed his own cursed power level very low. However, just the tip of the iceberg that was leaked was enough to prove his special status.
This is the difference in quality.
Nanami Kento was trapped in the bathroom with no way out, and the cursed spirit seemed to be deliberately putting pressure on him. He had already thought about it twice before the other party slowly leaned against the door frame, revealing his figure.
Nanami Kento easily judged the other person's identity based on his appearance.
This must be the cursed spirit that Gojo Satoru mentioned before, which has some connection with his ancestors.
"?"
Bai Yun found that the words "Gojo Kakashi" were more solid and slowly uttered a question mark.
I just showed up!
