Floating Light and Bubbles 02
The school clinic of Tokyo Jujutsu High School was deserted.
That was just Ieiri Shoko's feeling. In reality, the infirmary had been constantly overcrowded for the past year. Gojo and Geto, who visited Zenin daily, were a thing of the past. Nanami and Haibara would sometimes come, too, and even that first-year, Ijichi—these guys clearly didn't know Zenin at all! That Ijichi hadn't even spoken to Zenin a single word, so why were they just hanging around?
It was all Gojo and Geto's fault, constantly promoting Zenin to the younger generation, causing them all to worship him—if it were just these people, Ieiri Shoko would be happy to see it happen. With Zenin unconscious, she would also feel... lonely.
But the infirmary is the infirmary, and it is always the doctors and the injured who spend the longest time there.
[Mr. Ieiri wants to make friends with other people.]
[I will accompany my classmate Jia Ru.]
Zenin had truly cast a curse on her. Ieiri Shoko could never forget that day. The memory grew ever more vivid and profound the more she recalled it.
[I don't care what happened today, I just hope that all three of you can come back safe and sound.]
[I will definitely do it, Jiaru. ]
We'll be back soon.
Zenyuan did not break his promise, but he could no longer stand up and hug her.
[Gojo, there's nothing wrong with Zenin's body, why can't she wake up?]
[Don't worry, Naruto. She'll wake up.]
[Tell me why, Gojo.]
[Although Hasukhan's technique is the type that plays with other people's emotions, Hasukhan herself attaches great importance to emotions. Remember how she explained her technique to us? The name of the technique is "reason", so the corresponding word is "madness".]
[Hatsu-chan just doesn't want to drive herself crazy. This is her protection. An out-of-control Hatsu-chan might be even scarier than Tengen-sama.]
[Noseko, be cheerful. Change your mindset. After Hantschan wakes up this time, nothing will be able to upset her.]
[Gojo is really indifferent.]
[Glass, I'm just trying to comfort you.]
This bastard!!!
Not long after Zenin fell into a coma, the Zenin family wanted to take him away. But Ieiri Shoko was powerless to stop him. No matter how she argued with the blond boy, telling him that she was the best doctor in the entire world of sorcery, he remained indifferent.
But Ieiri Shoko persevered until Gojo completed his mission and returned to the technical high school. Ieiri Shoko herself didn't know how she managed it. The blond boy's expression when he saw Gojo was truly awful. Ieiri Shoko will never forget that awful look on his face.
What do you want to do to my lover?
Gojo's expression was rather calm.
On the night the three of them returned, Ieiri Shoko heard from Getu that Gojo and Zenin had confessed their love. It was also what Ieiri Shoko expected that Zenin would agree to Gojo.
Those who are involved are often confused, while those who are on the sidelines can see things more clearly.
Naoko Ieiri has always been a bystander, she will not be an insider.
Even if they were just lovers for a few minutes, Gojo was fulfilling his responsibilities as a "boyfriend." If he wanted Zenin to stay at the technical high school, simply driving the blond boy away wouldn't be enough. Gojo went to meet the head of the Zenin family, but Ieiri Shoko didn't know what they talked about.
In short, the Zen temple was taken care of by Ieru Nozomi.
In addition, Gojo handled the funeral arrangements for Tenno Riko, Matsushita Kiyoko, and Fushiguro Shinobu. Gojo also visited Miss Kuroi and Grandma Yamada.
In contrast to Gojo's positive attitude, Geto is always unhappy. Ieiri Shoko understands Geto's unhappiness isn't because Gojo and Zenin are lovers. Ieiri Shoko also understands that Geto won't tell her anything.
That idiot Gojo is too busy.
And everything seems to be fine with Geto.
Even if Gojo noticed something was wrong, Geto would just deal with it casually.
Ieiri Naoko holds your hand. Today is a rare day of leisure. Gojo replaced the greenery in the infirmary with more manageable succulents.
Gojo's time in the infirmary varied.
When I have free time, I can stay all day. When I'm busy, I just take a quick look and leave. I just try my best to come every day.
Gojo blames himself.
Xia Yu blames himself.
Zenyuan was in a coma, and he was also blaming himself.
Everyone blames themselves.
What went wrong?
"Glass."
Gojo never knocks on the door.
"Sleeping Beauty is still sleeping." Gojo walked to the other side and held Zenin's other hand. He opened his mouth and said, "Can I kiss her in front of Naoko?"
Ieiri Naoko curled her lips: "What do you think?"
"Can't Glass be a little more flexible?"
"Isn't Gojo embarrassed?"
"What's embarrassing about that!" Gojo yelled, then sat down, smiling at Zenin's face. Such concentration and tenderness was something Ieiri Shoko couldn't bear to break.
Gojo had always believed that Zenin would wake up. After more than a year, even Ieiri Naoko had begun to doubt it. Getu was completely consumed by the fear that Zenin would never wake up.
Ieiri Shoko didn't know what Gojo believed.
How could Gojo think that everything would go his way?
"Glass——!"
"What are you yelling about, Gojo! Do you think Zenin can be woken up by you like this!?"
*
Your consciousness falls into a deep and profound darkness.
As you regain consciousness, mysterious halos of light appear. They're dim, yet gracefully dance in the darkness. Their edges are blurred and soft, as if gently caressed by some invisible force. Then, these halos converge and merge, weaving together into a dreamlike canvas—a collection of all your past experiences.
This is... my consciousness.
You stand up, staggering across the water, stirring up ripples. The scroll swirls around you, transforming into a path of light to guide you forward.
Did someone hold my hand?
So warm.
You open your eyes, a bit lost in thought as to what day it is. Then, in the blink of an eye, you find yourself staring into a pair of eyes as bright and dazzling as the sky.
He placed a gentle kiss on your forehead and smiled.
"Sleeping Beauty was woken up by my kiss!" His smile was so joyful that you couldn't help but smile too: "Gojo——"
"It's 'Wu', it's 'Wu'! You didn't forget what you promised me, did you?" He said this, but he was actually at a loss. He looked so nervous that he wanted to just pick you up and disappear from everyone's sight.
But Ieiri stopped him: "Gojo! Zenin needs rehabilitation! Don't even think about taking her away like this!!!"
"I've been so used to yelling 'Gojo' all the time," you say, your voice sounding too soft. It feels like your voice isn't your own anymore—you realize a big problem: these two people are too excited and happy, like a long drought finally ending in a downpour.
"How long have I slept?"
"Today is the summer solstice." Jia Ru didn't even speak to you in a friendly tone, and you felt a little wronged. Jia Ru noticed your aggrieved expression and bent down to poke your forehead with his fingers.
"Did you think it had only been less than three months?"
You nodded, didn't you?
"It's one year and three months!" Jia Ru announced the verdict loudly, treating you as a complete sinner!
How can this be!
How could you be unconscious for so long!
You feel that you are indeed guilty.
You thought it wouldn't take this long—Ryomen Sukuna! You experienced Ryomen Sukuna's entire life! The fact that only a little over a year has passed is truly auspicious!
This is all Ryomen Sukuna's fault!
"Glass, I didn't do it on purpose, so don't be so angry~"
"Gojo, let go of Zenin's hand before you talk to me."
"やだ!"
"I'm your real boyfriend!"
Wu had made Jia Ru helpless, and Jia Ru laughed in anger. In the end, she said nothing, but just asked, "Do you feel any discomfort?"
"No. I've been using magic to give myself suggestions. Apart from the severe muscle atrophy, there should be no other problems."
"Besides," you asked Wu to let go, but he refused to do so. You had no choice but to let him go. You threw back the quilt and got out of bed, facing Jia Ru's displeased gaze.
You are still able to stand, and you are satisfied with the result.
"It's not like I've really become a vegetable. Rehabilitation will be quick."
"Why is Zenyuan so anxious?"
"Save him."
You said with a smile.
Gojo Satoru holds you in his arms.
He can now do this to you openly.
"I've been lying down for a year, can I still catch up with Jay and me?"
Is it because it is summer that Wu's body is so hot and his breathing is so scorching?
It’s too hot, it makes you feel anxious.
"Let me go."
"No, and don't move. Answer my question first."
From the back, the Zen temple is completely invisible.
"What is Satoru doing?"
What a coincidence, Xia Yu.
Gojo Satoru didn't reply to Geto Suguru, and Geto Suguru didn't take it to heart. He shifted his gaze to the bed.
The bed was empty.
はつちゃん——
What else did he not understand? Didn't he want to -
"We're just friends, it's not impossible." Glass said to him, but Wu was immersed in joy and might not have heard the question he asked when he first arrived.
"Forget it." He heard himself say to Glass.
Wu is asking you seriously.
You tiptoed slightly and kissed his Adam's apple, and his body trembled non-stop. He is so domineering, can't you even tease him a little?
“What if I can’t catch up?” you said softly into his eyes.
Wu's face turned really red.
"If you can't catch up with me, I'll be your teacher. はつちゃん will catch up with me one day."
"Wu couldn't even look at me, and he said he wanted to be my teacher."
To relieve the thirst in his throat, Gojo Satoru swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
He forced himself to meet your gaze, silently.
You're obviously nervous too.
You kept blinking.
A slight tremor emanated from your lips.
He likes all of these.
“I won’t tease you anymore.” You patted his chest. “Don’t underestimate me. Even if I lose consciousness, I won’t stop.”
"But I think Wu would first like to show me his hard work over the past year, right?"
"I am now truly the strongest."
In other words, it was not unworthy of its name.
Geto Suguru agreed with Gojo Satoru's statement. If he was truly the "strongest," they wouldn't have been so helpless back then.
In the final analysis, it’s all because of——
"Is it really okay? Hatsu-chan? Even I know people who lie down for too long..."
"Don't worry about that, Gou. The human body's potential is far greater than we ever imagined." Ever since your first coma, you've realized something's amiss. You were supposed to have a second personality acting on your behalf, but it seems to have been somewhat unsuccessful.
"Everyone knows that my technique is effective on the 'brain' of all living organisms. By giving commands to the brain, it can do many incredible things. So soon..."
Obviously, as a sorcerer—
"Jay? Let's go outside to the playground."
