Chapter 6
【Why not make further judgments based on what the other party has done? 】
What did Mr. Real do?
When he first met him, he killed a trio who were quarreling in the cinema.
Yoshino Junpei knew that the three were hooligans who bullied others and were complete scumbags. He would not care if they died.
Even if he were asked to do it himself, he would not refuse.
Junpei Yoshino sometimes wonders: Is the sentence in Japanese law too lenient?
Even if someone is killed, the death penalty will not necessarily be imposed - it is unfair to exchange the life of a bad person for the life of an innocent person and his family, but sometimes the law cannot even guarantee this kind of unfair justice.
It is said that the weight of life cannot be measured, but in Yoshino Junpei's view, society not only measured it, but the scale was terribly crooked.
Since it is a punishment for the perpetrator, then the pain suffered by the victim must be doubled, right? That would be the right thing to do, right?
Therefore, as a victim of bullying, Yoshino Junpei, after seeing the deaths of those three people, only felt a sense of satisfaction rising from the bottom of his heart, and a yearning for this kind of counterattack power.
He didn't realize that Mr. Zhenren probably didn't know about the evil deeds done by the trio.
Mr. Real only killed them because they were too noisy in the cinema.
He didn't even recognize the "collections" that were displayed to Junpei Yoshino later.
Do those people really deserve this?
Yoshino Junpei just realized this.
In the dead of night, the passage of time is always subtle and ambiguous. Looking at the clock casually, it may be an hour since the last time, or it may be only five minutes.
Call the High Commissioner tomorrow and tell them everything, then ask them to protect Mom.
I don't know how much time had passed, when Yoshino Junpei was half asleep and half awake.
Suddenly he heard a terrible scream.
A familiar voice, an unfamiliar tone, a sharp scream containing terrifying emotions, this sound that could only be heard in horror movies made Junpei Yoshino unable to realize that it actually came from his own mother.
By the time he reacted and rushed out of the room, he saw a thin and twisted curse chewing something long in the living room, and his mother was lying on the ground, motionless, with her lower body missing.
Junpei Yoshino had never seen so much blood in his life.
He stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.
Out of curiosity, Junpei Yoshino once looked it up on the Internet.
A person who is cut in half does not die immediately.
If no vital organs are injured, the person may survive for a few minutes, but without prompt medical treatment, he or she will soon die from excessive blood loss.
We need to stop the bleeding quickly...
Even as he thought of this, his body felt as if it were filled with lead and he couldn't move at all.
Because the bloody body seemed to have stopped moving.
The eerie and ethereal gurgling of the cursed spirit, accompanied by the sound of bones breaking and rubbing, filled the entire space of this small living room.
The cursed spirit didn't really need to eat, and after discovering its "new toy", it gave a twisted smile, spat out the remains in its mouth, and rushed towards Yoshino Junpei.
The curse instantly magnified before his eyes and he tried to dodge.
But he wasn't fast enough.
Facing the attack coming straight at him, Yoshino Junpei's survival instinct made him subconsciously dodge backwards, but after losing his balance, his hope of survival was further shattered.
The cursed spirit's long body was very flexible, and it quickly adjusted the angle and prepared for a second attack.
Just when Yoshino Junpei had no way to avoid it and thought that this might be the end of it, a shock pierced through the chest of the curse.
The smelly blood was spattered on Yoshino Junpei's face. The strange blood with a dark purple color did not boil as he had imagined. Soon, as the cursed spirit died, it turned into something like ash and gradually disappeared into the air along with the main body.
Yoshino Junpei's mind was blank at this moment, and he could only look numbly at the familiar cursed spirit that was half sticking its body in from the window.
"It was so dangerous. You almost died."
The cursed spirit with obvious seams on his face tilted his head and looked at the boy sitting on the ground with a worried look: "Are you okay?"
Yoshino Junpei slowly looked towards the real person, and his brain slowly restarted.
Humans use their five senses to perceive the world.
From his observations over the past two days, Yoshino Junpei discovered that Mr. Masato had a special trait.
He prefers to use "fresh" humans when experimenting with spells.
Because they are fresh, the people who have been transformed into monsters through inaction still taste and feel the same as when they were alive.
No, or rather, those monsters were alive for a short period of time.
This kind of separation makes people feel like they are watching a 3D movie, lacking a sense of reality.
But now it's different.
Yoshino Junpei's nose was now filled with the smell of his relatives' blood.
The memories of the past few days replayed uncontrollably in Yoshino Junpei's mind like a slide show.
【Heroes always appear at the last, most critical moment and save others.】
Does this kind of plot in the movie really exist in reality?
In the real world, compared to a hero who happens to appear and save the situation...
No matter how you look at it, the possibility of encountering a villain who has been planning for a long time is greater, right?
Seeing that the other party did not answer and even his expression gradually became distorted, the real person snorted lightly: "It doesn't look like everything is fine."
The cursed spirit jumped down from the window frame, came to the boy and squatted down, carefully observing his expression: "Why are you angry with me?"
Yoshino Junpei's eyes were red with anger, but the real person smiled: "Did you get exposed?"
"You bastard—!"
The real person grabbed the opponent's fist that was trying to attack him and said casually: "Shunping, you have a good brain, right? You think about a lot of problems that ordinary people don't think about."
"But there's something about what you're thinking about... what's the word? Disembodied? Idealistic?"
"You approach me because you think you are special, right?"
The real person lowered his voice, and his tone was soft and flirtatious, almost as if he was acting coquettishly.
"After all, normally, you should have pretended not to see it and ran away, right?"
"If Shunping hadn't come with me, I wouldn't have known about your mother."
The cursed spirit slowly leaned over and whispered softly into the ear of Yoshino Junpei, who was breathing rapidly: "So your mother's death is all your fault, Junpei."
I originally thought that the containers of Junpei and Sukuna looked good together, so I wanted to use them.
But never mind, there will be opportunities in the future.
【Transformation through inaction——】
Before he could perform the real-life technique, he suddenly realized there was someone behind him.
It tilted its head to look at the window. A humanoid cursed spirit in a purple robe was leaning sideways, half leaning and half sitting on the window frame, with one leg on the window sill and the other hanging naturally. It looked leisurely and ready to retreat or attack at any time.
The cursed spirit gives people a sense of being well-trained, and there is a strange aura surrounding it, like an abandoned statue. You know it was once glorious, but now you feel more of the silence brought by time.
The real person immediately became interested: "I have never met another cursed spirit that is so close to human form. Who are you?"
Yoshino followed the real person's line of sight and suddenly realized something when he saw the scar covering half of "Uchiha Obito's" face: "You, ahem, are you the cursed spirit that Yuji mentioned that can heal others?"
He seemed to have grasped at straws: "Please save my mother! She is dying."
Bai Yun, who had just been following the cursed spirit to kill, was silent for two seconds, trying to figure out what was going on.
“Ha, hahahahahaha—!”
As long as the shape of his soul remains unchanged, he will not be harmed, so Zhenren was not too vigilant. After hearing Yoshino Junpei's call for help, he just laughed.
"Have you not learned your lesson yet? You still want to get along well with the cursed spirit?"
The real person held his stomach and added: "And he's not dying, he's already dead, right?"
"I'll do anything as long as you save her!"
"I'll trade everything I have for you--!"
Bai Yun looked at Yoshino Junpei. The young man did not care about his own danger at all. After being betrayed by the curse he had just recognized, he once again asked for help from the curse spirit he had never seen but had only heard a few rumors about.
Well, he has no other choice now.
The memory of Uchiha Obito suddenly flashed through Bai Yun's mind.
Rain, mud, blood.
And the lightning that pierced through Lin's chest.
Uchiha Obito also missed the person he most wanted to save when he was at his weakest age.
They are very similar.
Bai Yun jumped down from the window frame and walked towards the half-human figure in the pool of blood under the gaze of Yoshino Junpei who was gradually regaining hope.
The real person's voice was drawn out, complaining bluntly without any concealment: "Hey -? Do you really want to help? That's too boring, isn't it?"
Although Yoshino Junpei's mother was injured by an ordinary cursed spirit, such a serious injury as a waist-cutting injury could not be saved by ordinary reversal techniques even if it was not mixed with strange deformities.
However, most of her lower body was left, and although the wounds were patchy, if this unfamiliar curse-reversal technique was used well and the severed limbs could be reattached, then it was not impossible to treat her.
pity--
"She's not breathing."
There is no need to even reach out and touch it, just a glance and the ninja's experience will allow him to make a judgment.
The real person crossed his arms over his chest, shook his head with an expression that said, "Oh, why don't you listen to my advice?" and said, "I'll tell you what I'm saying."
Bai Yun ignored him and added: "But I can give you a chance to meet her again."
Yoshino Junpei was overwhelmed with joy and sorrow. He didn't know how to react. Instead, the real person beside him asked the question for him: "...Is it true?"
At this time, the real person has gradually forgotten his original idea.
Anyway, the most important thing is to let the high school recover the finger that has been secretly located. It doesn't matter what Yoshino Junpei does. It is now more interested in the newly appeared cursed spirits.
The real person left Yoshino Junpei behind and stood facing the cursed spirit at the window, gesturing with his hands: "How are we going to meet? Time travel? Summoning the dead? Isn't it the resurrection of the dead?"
Yoshino Junpei also responded, and his voice almost broke when he asked, "What should I do?"
Bai Yun recalled the request of Yi Tu's reincarnation and replied, "I need a living sacrifice."
The real person seemed even more excited than Junpei, and answered quickly, "I have it! I have it! If you want fresh ones, that's fine too. When I came here just now, I saw that someone was living in the neighbor's house!"
"What kind of sacrifice do you need? A young girl? A baby? Now that I think of it, there is one not far from here..."
Before he could finish his words, he was suddenly attacked by a strange cursed spirit and flew away.
With a loud crash and the sound of concrete walls breaking, Bai Yun finally responded to the real person for the first time: "It's been so noisy since the beginning."
Despite being treated so roughly, the real person didn't seem angry at all. He even leaned against the big hole made by his body and was in the mood to tease, "It seems that you are not the type who likes to chat...?"
Until it discovered that there was a sticky liquid slowly flowing down the corners of its mouth.
"Um?"
Its expression was almost confused. The real person reached out to wipe the corner of his mouth, and then stared at the blood that belonged to him at his fingertips.
"Why?"
After a brief silence, it looked at Bai Yun curiously.
"How did you hurt me?"
