Chapter 31 Equipment Drop
"Rina! Slow down!" The girl with short hair followed the girl with ponytail, panting.
"No! Keiko, it's too late!" Rina walked past passers-by one by one, and finally stopped in front of a store with a long queue, blushing and panting.
Huizi followed closely behind, and the two of them were at the end of the team.
Standing on tiptoe and roughly counting, Rina breathed a sigh of relief, "Not bad, not bad. There should still be some when it's my turn."
Huizi was panting so hard that she couldn't speak.
Sure enough, when it was Rina's turn, there was still stock available, so she bought two and Keiko also bought one.
The two of them squeezed out of the crowded idol store in a panic.
"I can actually appreciate five such beautiful faces at once." Rina didn't have time to tidy up her messy hair. She hugged the peripherals, feeling so happy that she was bubbling.
Huizi also showed satisfaction on her face.
At this time, a tall figure passed by the two girls. Rina couldn't help but turn her head and saw the peripherals in the tall man's arms and hands. The bag was printed with a familiar group name - Eclipse.
Huizi followed her gaze, looked over carefully, and said in surprise: "Is eclipse's audience so wide?" There are foreigners among them.
She was quite familiar with this idol group, after all, she grew up watching the drama they starred in. However, because she had just become a fan of this group and had not been exposed to the fan circle before, she had a limited understanding of its influence.
But Rina is an old fan who has watched this team grow up. Rina said as a matter of course: "It's normal. Basically, they are all parent fans, moms, dads, grandparents, and there are fans of all ages."
Huizi then remembered that her good friend Nian Fang, who was only seventeen years old, was already a mother of five children.
Eclipse is an idol group composed of five fourteen-year-old boys. Since they entered the entertainment industry at a young age, the majority of their fan base are mom fans.
Although they don't have many works due to their age and company protection issues, no matter whether they are guest starring or starring, the works they participate in are definitely excellent, so much so that now many people know that the show has the potential to become a hit when they see Eclipse.
In addition to the three dramas starring them at the ages of seven, ten and thirteen, what is most praised is actually their songs, which are the holy sounds of angels that can purify the soul and are recognized by both Japanese and American entertainment.
The five of them are well-known child stars not only in Asia, but also in Europe.
"Hello sir, may I have an interview?"
The reporter was holding a microphone, with a camera following behind him, asking Rina and Keiko about the man they had just seen.
The man was about 1.88 meters tall, with a handsome face and wearing glasses. His elegant temperament and height made him stand out from the crowd, not to mention that he was holding a large bag of peripherals in his hands. The entertainment reporter locked onto this man at first sight.
He looked a little surprised and smiled, "Of course."
"What's your name?"
"Just call me Carter."
Entertainment reporter: "Mr. Carter, are you a fan of Eclipse?"
"Yes, I have been following them for six years."
The reporter teased: "It can be seen that you must like them very much. Can I ask why you like them?"
"Well, it was the adventure variety show they participated in when they were eight years old. They sang a song in it. My friend was watching the show at the time. When I heard that voice nearby, my ears were immediately grabbed and my heart fell into it, and I couldn't get out at all. It was simply the sound of nature, you know? Just like the little angels beside God, so adorable!" Carter became more and more excited as he spoke, and his originally calm tone became excited.
"Okay, okay, of course I know." The reporter quickly comforted him, "One last question, do you have anything to say about eclipse?"
Carter looked hopeful: "I hope they can do more activities in the United States. Because of work, I often miss activities like handshake meetings."
"That's a shame. I'm sure they'll consider it."
There were more people, and Rina said, "Let's go to my house and dismantle the surroundings."
Rina took Keiko into her small bedroom, sat on the plush carpet, and took out a magazine from her bag with an almost pious expression.
"What is this?" Huizi came over curiously.
"The gift given after the purchase amount reaches a certain amount is an extraordinary limited-time return—"
“For a children’s magazine when I was six.”
Unexpectedly, Yuji Itadori found a children's magazine photo taken in the United States when he was six years old in his grandfather's room.
Yuji Yasuke took the magazine which had obvious signs of being flipped through, "It was sent by Yaliu at that time. I took a quick look at it and put it aside. The photos are pretty nice."
A pile of magazines and other peripherals were neatly placed together. It was impossible for them to be put there casually. Yuji Itadori laughed: "Grandpa, I didn't expect you to still pursue me."
Yuji Yasuke raised his eyelids and said, "It's already been delivered to Hachiyanagi, why shouldn't I take a look?"
"Okay, okay, I know." Yuji Itadori turned behind his grandfather and gave him a shoulder massage. "Remember to watch the variety show you often watch tonight. I'm going to be on stage."
"It's not the first time you still want me to support you."
"Of course. Without grandpa's support, I won't have the motivation to participate in the show next time."
"Got it, it's time for school, let's go."
Yuji Itadori saw that it was indeed getting late and said, "Then I'll be leaving now. Bye."
He picked up the schoolbag that had been packed long ago at the entrance, put on a mask, fastened his hood, hummed a song, and strolled to school.
Thanks to Zheya's true teachings, I won't be chased and blocked when I go out.
The school and the company had an agreement, and the school informed all students that they were prohibited from engaging in extreme star-chasing behavior, including not blocking classroom doors, not chasing after people for autographs, and not stealing clothes, shoes, or pencils and erasers and selling them online.
Most of the students were well behaved, at most they would peek from the side, or the brave ones would watch from the classroom windows, but most of them were too embarrassed to get close. Except for the first day when he entered junior high school and was surrounded by people, which caused the corridor to be blocked, Yuji Itadori's life in school was relatively peaceful afterwards. He went to class, read books, and played ball, and the day passed just like that.
Of course, sometimes the loving looks from girls and boys would make him feel distressed.
The first time he was stopped by a girl in school, everyone around him thought he was a fanatical fan who wanted to confess his love, but it turned out that the senior girl was just reminding Yuji Itadori to wear more clothes, worried that he would catch a cold.
Understanding the girl's good intentions, Hisahito obediently put on another piece of clothing when he returned home, even though he was stronger than a cow.
Later, someone sent him a letter, I don’t know if it was a man or a woman, but the content was nothing more than to wear warmer clothes when it’s cold, eat less ice when it’s hot, remember to bring an umbrella if it’s raining today, and to get more sun in the sun tomorrow when the sun is not too strong or too weak to supplement calcium.
When playing basketball with boys, the small forward on the opposing team said excitedly, "I watched you grow up," which made Yuji Itadori slow down his steps for a second. There is nothing wrong with this sentence, but it feels strange when someone of the same age says it to you.
But this kind of thing has happened frequently since I was a child.
Others are the same, they have never lost a parent since childhood. Changing a pair of parents every day is not enough for a year.
This should be considered a sweet trouble.
Because he couldn't bear to leave his grandfather, Hisahito is still studying in Miyagi. Thanks to the system's special time-squeezing skills, he didn't reduce the time he spent with his grandfather because of his idol career.
He had finished his classes today and had something else to take care of.
At school, he joined the track and field club. A few days ago, a senior in the club fell into a coma for no apparent reason. The cause could not be determined and he is still lying in the hospital.
The classmate who was good friends with the senior told him when they were chatting with Yuji Itadori that the senior and a few friends made a bet and went to the woods in Sanchome for an adventure.
There has long been a rumor about the forest in Sanchome, because there is an abandoned Buddhist shrine in it, and it is said that if you make a wish to it, there is a chance that it will come true.
"Then there must be some price to pay, right?"
The classmate scratched his head and said, "I've never heard of it. But maybe those people whose wishes are fulfilled are just coincidences. It's all random probability, not necessarily granted by God, so there's no question of charging a price."
That’s not necessarily the case now.
When Yuji Itadori heard this, he guessed that it was the curse spirit that was causing the trouble. The reason why the senior was in a coma was closely related to it. No matter what, he must exorcise the curse spirit to prevent it from causing more harm.
So after saying goodbye to his grandfather, he ran to Sanchome by himself.
There were continuous forests with overgrown branches, and the sun could barely penetrate deeper into the forest. Yuji Itadori turned on his flashlight, and the light illuminated the way ahead.
The rumored location of the Buddhist shrine is in the northwest direction. It can be reached in about fifteen or sixteen minutes at a normal speed. There is a huge pointed rock about one meter high near the shrine, so it is relatively easy to find.
Yuji Itadori was faster and only took him half the time. If it weren't for the bushes and branches sticking out from the roadside blocking his way, he would have been even faster.
The closer he got to his destination, the colder his body felt. Standing one or two meters away from the Buddhist shrine, Yuji Itadori could feel the discomfort of the damp and cold air penetrating into his bones.
There are people who dare to take this risk. Yuji Itadori touched his arm with goose bumps and didn't know how to complain about his senior and his friends.
"Okay, quick fix."
No curse spirit appeared, there was only a paint-chipped Buddhist shrine in front of me. The shrine was very small, about twenty centimeters high, and the head of the Buddha statue inside had been lost, so its original appearance could not be seen.
Yuji Itadori touched his wrist, and the cursed power gathered in his hand. He punched forward with his fist wrapped in cursed power. Just when the shrine was about to be smashed, the shrine suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
Yuji Itadori was stunned and turned around quickly. The Buddhist shrine was standing diagonally opposite its previous position. It was shaking violently and the surrounding soil was bulging, as if something was about to be pulled out of the ground.
Never mind, just fight first and talk later.
Without waiting for the cursed spirit to become its complete form, Yuji Itadori kicked it with a stone in its foot, and it hit the shrine with a loud bang. It successfully pulled out its legs, and struggled to stand up on its eight legs. The broken head of the Buddha statue also grew an ugly gray lump.
Before the cursed spirit could make any angry sound, a fist hit it again. Yuji Itadori was in a hurry to go home for dinner and didn't want to hear it screaming.
Over the years, Yuji Itadori has worked for free to help the sorcerers clear out the cursed spirits. The one in front of him is still in its infancy, at only level two, and is no match for him.
It took ten minutes to kill the cursed spirit, and something fell out of the broken shrine.
A dry brown finger that was obviously not human, with talisman paper wrapped around it.
Yuji Itadori was stunned. He had fought so many cursed spirits, but this was the first time he encountered one with explosive equipment.
He walked forward, but did not touch it. He squatted beside it and looked at it with his head tilted.
"Hiss, why does it feel a little familiar?" Yuji Itadori touched his chin and brought up the reward interface on his wrist.
The second item of the mission reward at the age of six [Secrets of the Curse World] is [If you encounter ugly fingers on the road, you can hand them over to the system, they are hazardous waste].
"Is this it?"
