Chapter 87
In the following time, Bai Yun couldn't find any clues.
At most, someone would secretly look at him from time to time on the street, and then smile at him after their eyes met, as if they were giving him a secret signal.
——It has to be said that there are more people who want to escape from the real world than Bai Yun imagined, and they are also very gossipy. In such a short time, the news that there are new members in the organization has spread.
Obviously, secrets can only exist when there are very few people who know about them. As for this makeshift team, if there are no undercover agents among them, it would be considered a lack of scientific knowledge.
As more and more people greeted him, Bai Yun's mood gradually became subtle. He even began to suspect that this group of people would be reported by the crowd for their strange and suspicious behavior before they actually set out to the location of the sacred tree.
While Bai Yun was complaining in his heart, he felt a lot less pressure because he had gained something.
This change in mentality was reflected in his mental state. Otsukino Yuta watched from the side, somewhat worried that this was actually some kind of hidden last burst of light.
Suddenly, a phone rang from Okkotsu Yuta's pocket. He took out his cell phone, glanced at the screen, and then immediately picked it up.
"Hey, Gojo-sensei, what happened?"
Bai Yun forgot about the expiration date. I don't know what Yukotsu heard. He frowned slightly, as if he felt a little sad: "Yes, we have encountered a similar situation here. Okay."
After a simple and efficient exchange, Yuta Otsutsuki hung up the phone and explained to Bai Yun, "Teacher Gojo also has information about the organization's activities just now. He said that it might not be clear in a sentence or two, so let's go over there first."
Bai Yun nodded, indicating that he understood.
When the two arrived at the designated location, Bai Yun discovered that in addition to Gojo Satoru, Mori Kogoro was also present.
After asking, Bai Yun found out that he was actually the source of Gojo Satoru's intelligence this time.
Maori Kogoro originally came along just to be with his daughter, and he had no job to do. But the murders along the way made it impossible for him to keep a low profile.
Because the train was originally heading to City C, and the second murder occurred directly in a hotel in City C, many tourists who came for the celebration realized that they were sharing the same sky with the famous detective Mouri Kogoro.
If an ordinary tourist meets such a celebrity, he or she may just sigh in secret, take a few photos at most, and ask for an autograph or something. However, in the process, some people who already have related needs will come to the door.
"This time, the client said that his mother seemed to be involved in a strange cult recently, and wanted me to investigate what was going on."
Maori Kogoro held a cigarette in his mouth. Because it was a public place and Otsukotsuki Yuta was not yet an adult, he did not light it. He just said a little vaguely: "The client himself lives in another place for a long time because of work. Generally, he can only return to his hometown to see his family during the occasional holidays."
"Therefore, the information that the client can provide is very limited. The only information we know is that the mother's involvement in the strange organization can be traced back to two months ago at most."
If it were normal, Bai Yun might think it was a coincidence, but in the scientific world, the probability of such a chain reaction is not high. Bai Yun glanced at Gojo Satoru, and the other party nodded slightly after feeling his gaze to indicate that he was not wrong.
That means the old lady who makes bakery is also among them, well, not surprising.
On the other side, Maori Kogoro was still sharing his intelligence: "I investigated based on the limited information..."
Although Kogoro Mouri is often jokingly called a beacon, and in general cases he can eliminate anyone he identifies, since Ran Mouri had not starved to death before Conan came to their house, it proves that he is usually quite good at small commissions like catching mistresses and finding things.
In fact, this is true. Kogoro Mori's ability to collect intelligence is not bad, but he is not very good at logical reasoning.
For example, now, Bai Yun listened from the side and found that what the other party was saying was the same as what Bai Yun and his friends had heard from the staff member before.
Yuta Otsutsuki looked at him from the sidelines, relaxed and even a little bit frivolous, feeling very sad: "How could he give up on himself so easily?"
In fact, Otsukotsuki Yuta's attitude towards "Hatake Kakashi" is very complicated.
On the one hand, this six-eyed man from five hundred years ago was inextricably linked to the demise of the Uchiha clan, but that was a mistake of the times and should not be pinned on individual humans.
After removing these somewhat negative considerations, "Hatake Kakashi", who possesses the Sharingan and has brought it to perfection, is undoubtedly another ancestor of Otsutsuki Yuta.
Unlike Gojo Satoru, this young special-grade sorcerer has a relatively gentle personality and usually likes to stay with people close to him. These newly emerged "elders" are also within this range.
Bai Yun's behavior at this time, who had no idea that his end was approaching, made Yukotsuki feel like a stray dog who had just found a tribe but was notified that the organization would be disbanded immediately.
Gojo Satoru tilted his head, thought for two seconds, and then casually guessed, "Maybe it's because he didn't actually live for himself."
Even the original owner of the Undead Cultivation Technique, Lord Tengen, needs to merge with a Star Plasma Body every five hundred years to ensure that he does not evolve into something that is harmful to humans. However, if he evolves without a Star Plasma Body, it does not necessarily mean that he will become unrecognizable.
But "Hatake Kakashi" didn't even think about trying, and immediately sentenced himself to death.
Gojo Satoru still remembered the excuse that Hatake Kakashi had given to reject his proposal before - he said "I don't want Obito to see those bad things anymore."
For a sorcerer, refusing to work due to personal emotional problems is obviously a bit remiss.
But speaking from the perspective of time, "Hatake Kakashi" had already ended his career as a sorcerer, and then served as a protective device for hundreds of years like a ghost.
Afraid that Uchiha Obito would go crazy because the world was too unfamiliar after being released from the seal, he even tried his best to retain his appearance as a young man!
You have to know that immortality does not mean immortality. The reason why "Hatake Kakashi" is in such good condition now is that he must have used some special technique and put a lot of thought into it!
And now, "Uchiha Obito" has returned to the world. Although being a cursed spirit is somewhat inconvenient, perhaps from the fact that the other party is already determined to cause trouble, "Uchiha Obito" intends to move forward, so "Hatake Kakashi" feels that he can let go of his worries and die in his original form.
But Gojo Satoru understood the logic of both sides and tried to put himself in the perspective of the cursed spirit and imagine what might happen next.
Judging from Gojo Satoru's initial observation of the cursed spirit, "Uchiha Obito" obviously also has very deep feelings for "Hatake Kakashi".
It would be fine if I thought the other party had already disappeared in the long river of time. However, if it was this kind of torment of losing and regaining, regaining and losing again, no matter how strong the pressure resistance is, I would explode on the spot.
And judging from the final situation of the previous dream, "Uchiha Obito" seems to have acquired the ability to perform [Infinite Moonlight Reading]. If he is stimulated again, what if he drags the whole world into it again?
Gojo Satoru studied it for a long time and felt that it would not work. He needed to think about it in the long run and not let "Uchiha Obito" know what was going to happen to "Hatake Kakashi" without any preparation.
At the same time, Bai Yun didn't know that Gojo Satoru's style of painting had started to deviate again. After listening to Maori Kogoro's guess, he thought about it and expressed his curiosity: "Come to think of it, normally when encountering a large case like the one now that is suspected of involving a cult, the police should be contacted. Why did you agree to cooperate with Gojo Satoru?"
Maori Kogoro closed the book and snorted: "I used to be a policeman."
Ah hinted, "I can figure out who should be in charge of which case."
Bai Yun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows after hearing this.
The sorcerer is officially listed, and although most people only have a vague understanding of it, it is enough for them to know what they should not interfere with.
Before, Conan and his friends were completely materialistic, but now, Kogoro Mori hinted that he had some understanding of things related to curses. Is this also proof of the further integration of the world?
Bai Yun nodded secretly, but at the same time he was a little worried that the old lady who was so kind to him was really injured because of being involved in the accident. He wanted to say hello to Gojo Satoru and the others, and then go find someone to infiltrate the organization in advance.
As a result, when he turned around, he found that the teacher and the student had left at some point and were whispering to each other. Judging from their expressions, they didn't seem to be talking about anything good.
……never mind.
Bai Yun retracted his gaze and thought with a dull face: He should just leave on his own.
