Desolate Echo 05
One, two, three... You counted once, then again, unwilling to give up. Actually, there was no need to count. There were only a few students in the technical college, and you could tell who was missing at a glance.
The students of Tokyo Jujutsu High School were all crowded into the school infirmary, which had once been quite spacious and seemed incredibly cramped.
“Haha.” You laughed dryly a few times and said to yourself in a low voice, “I’m really proud of myself…” Wait a moment, you lowered your head and touched your eyebrows.
Is that Mr. Ye Moth standing at the door? Why is Mr. Ye Moth here too...
A black and white creature climbed onto the bed, careful with its movements. He was afraid of accidentally stepping on you. He stood at the edge of the bed, his voice soft and gentle, not at all aggressive.
"はつちゃん doesn't care about taking care of yourself at all!"
"I'm fine, Panda." Speak gently to children. You want to comfort him, so you pick him up and dangle him in the air: "Panda is the cutest." You try to rub him, but Panda nimbly escapes from your grasp. He continues to put his hands on his hips and angrily says, "I'm heavy, Hasukhan."
"Panda, get out of the way." Gojo Satoru grabbed Panda by the scruff of the neck and lifted him up. Panda used all four limbs to try to escape, but he couldn't break free from Gojo Satoru's grip.
"The Right Path~"
"Satoru." Gojo Satoru threw the panda out, and after the panda landed steadily, it immediately hid behind Ye Mo Zhengdao.
Gojo Satoru tutted his words and unceremoniously sat down where the panda had been standing. He stretched out his index finger and poked your forehead hard, then leaned over and pressed down on you.
"はつちゃん～"
It's strange. Wu Mingming called out to you so gently and sweetly, why do you feel a chill?
"I made Gojo Satoru worried. Now everything is fine. I'm fine." You think this answer is perfect, but it doesn't seem to calm Gojo Satoru down. He starts to pull at your face with both hands. It hurts a little, but it's still within the acceptable range.
Gojo Satoru said nothing. There wasn't much to say.
There is nothing to criticize about Yuki's actions.
"Hatsuchan, don't act so recklessly next time. Satoru and I are worried about you."
"How can this be considered reckless, Jie? Besides me, no one else could have rescued Haibara and Nanami in that situation, right? And it was my suggestion... There's no need to worry about rescue in Tokyo..."
The standing arrangement in the infirmary was: Haibara and Nanami stood at the end of the right bed, with Ijichi-san standing behind them. Suzuki stood alone at the end of the left bed. Nozomi sat on the other empty bed, looking at her phone, completely ignoring us. Yoga-sensei stood in the middle of the right bed. Satoru, needless to say, was the closest to you.
Jay... stood the farthest away. He leaned against the corner.
"Rescue..." Geto sighed and took a few steps towards you. Ieiri Naoko moved slightly to give Geto a place to sit.
"Thank you."
"You won't sit?"
"Then you should sit down. This way you can talk to Hazuchan face to face."
"I'm really upset when Jay says that."
"I didn't know Wu's mind was so narrow."
"What did Jay want to tell me?"
"Hatsu...chan..." Geto Suguru was originally looking up at you, but after calling your name, he lowered his head.
"If only the curse spirit didn't exist."
Jay's voice was so soft that you could barely hear it. It was a wish every sorcerer had imagined.
"As long as humans exist, cursed spirits will never disappear. We sorcerers exist to protect humans." It was Suzuki Yu who answered Geto Suguru.
Suzuki feels that something is wrong with Takeuchi-senpai.
He couldn't tell what was wrong.
Senior Getsu seemed to be mocking him for being stupid.
"Oh. You're right." Xia Yujie glanced at Suzuki Yu. He had nothing to say to this guy who had never experienced pain.
"Is Jay tired of the endless exorcism of cursed spirits?"
“How could this happen!?”
"Go, don't get excited. Jay hasn't said anything yet."
[Cursed Spirit…Cursed Spirit is so scary…]
This is Ijichi-san, right?
"No." Geto Suguru gave a reluctant answer in a strong voice.
"Then Jie must be feeling tired, right? As both of us are 'Special Grade', Jiujiu and I are always busy with our own things. Wu and Jie..."
"You've worked so hard!" Gojo Satoru winked at you, his face full of "come and praise me!" You touched his hand, and he held it tightly. You let him go.
[Always cleaning up the mess for the weaker guys.]
Gojo Satoru is not only talking about himself, but also about you.
【No one who is saved is weak.】
I can't hear it.
You stretched out your fingers and tickled Gojo Satoru's palm.
【Thank you for your hard work, Wu.】
Do I get a reward?
I'm also having a hard time.
[Then I will reward you~]
Let’s ask ourselves who is giving this award.
Why is Wu's head full of pornographic garbage?
"If you're tired, Jie, why don't you take a break? After all, I and Wu are here. But if you want to take a break, it's best to schedule it after the tour is over. Otherwise, I won't be able to spare the time... Today is the 27th... Glass, I'm going tonight—"
"Just don't come back dead."
"Is Glass blaming me?"
"I don't."
"It's better than bringing back three corpses."
She's just mad at you. She's got her back to you.
"Senior Ieiri really has a cold exterior but a kind heart." Suzuki Yu used his skills to smooth things over, but it was of no use.
"Nose, Hatsu-chan had no choice but to do this..." Geto Suguru used his skills to smooth things over, but Ieiri Sose threw a pillow at him: "Do you think I don't know?"
You've never seen Glass get angry, nor have you ever heard Glass speak so loudly.
"Ieiri-senpai, this is all my and Haibara's fault."
"Ah..." Ieiri Shoko turned to look at Nanami Kento and Haibara Yu. "Who can tell whether it's right or wrong? If you think you're wrong, then you're wrong." Ieiri Shoko shrugged. She adjusted her attitude and said calmly, "I'm not mad at you."
"I know, Nitro."
"Panda is right. You should take better care of yourself."
"We are all here, Mr. Yemo."
"That's not concern, that's worry," Ieiri Naoko corrected. Pointing at Geto Suguru, she continued, "How dare you give your mission to Zenin and then just walk away?"
"How could it be, Glass? Yuki needs my protection."
“Jay still thinks this way about me…” You covered your mouth in disbelief.
Xia Yujie touched the back of his head and said with a smile: "Nanoko and I were just joking."
"I know." You nudged Gojo Satoru with your elbow. "Would you like to say something?"
"What's there to say?" Gojo Satoru said, puzzled. "There's no way Jie would be a coward and run away, right? What's there to be afraid of a cursed spirit?"
[Who is afraid of cursed spirits...]
You looked towards Ijichi-san.
Most people are afraid of cursed spirits.
Suzuki and Ijichi-san aren't close. Has Ijichi-san decided to become an assistant supervisor now? An assistant supervisor isn't necessarily easier than a sorcerer; they might even carry greater psychological pressure.
Well, everyone has their own choices. You won't say anything.
"I hope September isn't too busy. Iori-senpai said they're organizing an autumn outing. It's sure to be lively with so many people."
"So many people!?" Huihara Yu immediately caught the key words, "Can we go too?" He had no chance to interrupt and was getting very frustrated.
"Hmm... In Kyoto, it's probably just Iori-senpai and Mei-senpai. As for Tokyo, everyone who wants to go there can go together. But nothing's decided yet, so it's hard to say for sure."
"I want to go!"
"Nanami, say something~"
"Since Senior has invited me..."
Gojo Satoru, Geto Suguru, and Ieiri Shoko naturally had no objections. They immediately knew that An Utahime was trying to make up for the spring outing they hadn't completed last year.
But——【Come with me when the time comes.】
【With Satoru, of course.】
【()*. 】
[Then let the singer see how good our relationship is~]
"Ichichi."
"Principal Nightmoth..."
"Don't you want to express your opinion?"
"I……"
"Let's go together, Ijichi. Let's take this opportunity to get to know each other better. We are in the same grade." Suzuki Yu said this with full mental preparation.
"Because Suzuki-san wants to be a sorcerer..."
"Is there any difference between a sorcerer and an assistant supervisor? Didn't Gojo-senpai enlighten you?"
Oh well... I still have a bit of a low self-esteem... Except for Ieiri-senpai, all the other seniors in the third year are special grade. The second year seniors are also top-tier second graders. Suzuki-san is also incredibly hardworking and making rapid progress... They're all really impressive people.
And he knew that it would take a lot of effort to exorcise a third-level cursed spirit.
There is no comparison at all.
"Suzuki is really well-informed." Wu hasn't mentioned this to you.
"We met by chance. Uh... I didn't mean to eavesdrop, I really just bumped into him accidentally--" Suzuki bowed and apologized very skillfully.
"Huh? So what if you eavesdropped? It's not a big deal." Gojo Satoru said impatiently. He couldn't help but want to kiss you.
I haven't seen you for several days.
Why are there so many people standing here!
Humph, the field expands - no, these people will be so disappointed.
Gojo Satoru is the most unique person in Yuko's heart.
Damn it, damn it, why hasn’t the strongest one learned how to expand the domain yet? He’s obviously just one step away from success.
"We seniors only have a limited understanding of exorcism. Ichichi-kun has his own strengths, so there's no need to worry."
"Senior Zenyuan is almighty!"
"You shouldn't say things like that at a time like this, Haibara."
Being beaten, Huiyuan Xiong felt very aggrieved: "I'm telling the truth."
"Haha. I'll try my best not to hold my seniors back."
“Yeah,” you smiled and nodded, “I’m optimistic about Ijichi.”
