Chapter 66: Choosing Gifts (Two-in-one with Landmine Extra Update *3) Before...
Yuji Itadori and Nobara Kugisaki received a mission to exorcise a second-level cursed spirit at a juvenile detention center.
Megumi Fushiguro had just returned from a low-level mission. He took Yuji Itadori's phone and carefully looked at the information provided in the window. He inexplicably had a sense of unease.
I made a quick decision and said, "I'll go with you."
Yuji Itadori thought that Megumi Fushiguro was worrying too much, so he put his arm around her shoulders like a brother and said, "Don't worry, Kugisaki and I will go alone, it'll be fine."
"That's right, Fushiguro." Kugisaki Nobara stared at him suspiciously, "You don't think we're too weak to handle it, do you?"
The more she thought about it, the more it made sense. Kugisaki Nobara couldn't take it anymore. "If you think Yuji is weak, fine, but don't take me with you!"
Yuji Itadori: Hey, he’s still here!
Fushiguro is tired, what is going on?
At this time, Ryona passed by with a popsicle in her mouth. She observed the boy with flesh-pink hair calmly.
Tsk tsk tsk, is this the warrior who ate Sukuna's finger?
Her eyes fell on Yuji Itadori's stomach, and she couldn't help but sigh, "This child has a really good stomach, he didn't even have diarrhea."
Perhaps because Ryouna's gaze was too direct, Itadori Yuji touched his belly and asked hesitantly, "Kirhara-senpai?"
"Ah, um, nothing." Ryona laughed it off. "I was saying, you two better listen to Fushiguro and let him go with you."
After finishing the last bite, he was too lazy to find a trash can to throw the stick away. Flames came out of his fingertips, and the stick turned into ashes and flew away in the wind.
Seeing the two people still with confused expressions, he felt sorry that the two innocent children were about to witness the darkness of the world of magic, so he kindly explained the tricks to them.
"Tijuba ate his finger, which should be punishable by death."
After all, he was still a young boy who had just entered the world of sorcery. When he heard the word "death penalty", Yuji's face turned pale.
Kugisaki Nobara had a great impression of the powerful and beautiful senior, and couldn't help asking about the follow-up as if she was listening to a story, "And then what?"
Megumi Fushiguro once again confirmed that except for Yuta Otsutsuki, no one here is serious and reliable.
"Then?"
Ryona didn't reveal the follow-up immediately, but instead took out three mints from her pocket and gave them to them.
When Megumi Fushiguro saw the familiar packaging, she directly refused it, and Yuji Itadori happily took his portion.
"Even though Yuji has been vouched for by Gojo-sensei, he's still a ticking time bomb. Do you think those rotten oranges will let it go so easily?"
Kugisaki Nobara shook her head in agreement, "No."
Ryona gave him a look of affirmation, with an expression that showed that the child was teachable.
"First graders need a teacher to accompany them when they start their mission, but Teacher Gojo happened to be assigned to an emergency mission."
"The information given about this mission is so vague, and it specifically states that only the two of you are required to go." She paused, then added, "So, are there really such coincidences in this world?"
The implication is that those rotten oranges will naturally not miss the opportunity to play tricks.
She laughed sarcastically, "After so much time, those old guys still like to play the same tricks."
Before, he targeted her, Maki and the others, and now he targets Yuji Itadori. There has been no improvement at all.
"In short, be careful about everything." She warned seriously.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Liangnai waved goodbye and left gracefully. She still had to go pick out a gift.
When I thought about meeting Yukimura Seiichi in a few days, my mood, which was disgusted by Old Orange, suddenly became much better.
"Kirhara-senpai is such a nice person." Yuji Itadori was deeply moved. He opened a mint candy and prepared to put it in his mouth.
Megumi Fushiguro noticed his actions and her expression became strange. After thinking about it, she finally decided not to stop him.
In an instant, the cool feeling of the mint swept through his entire nasal cavity and mouth like a storm.
Kugisaki Nobara urged, "How does it taste?"
Yuji Itadori tried hard to hold back his tears, showed his standard eight-toothed smile, raised his thumb to praise, and finally squeezed out three words from between his teeth.
"First-class, great."
Is this true? Nobara Kugisaki is suspicious. Is this the expression of delicious food?
"Didn't you say that Kirihara-senpai is a good person? How could there be a problem with the candy he gave me?" Megumi Fushiguro also secretly instigated.
Yes, Nobara Kugisaki let down her guard and put the candy into her mouth.
"boom--"
A glacial nuclear bomb was detonated in the mouth, and the biting cold rushed straight to the top of the head, and the temples began to beat uncontrollably.
Yuji Itadori has also reached his limit. Tears are streaming down his face, but he dares not open his mouth to breathe. The influx of air feels like millions of ice needles piercing his eyebrows.
Nobara Kugisaki standing by was not much better off, crying even more miserably than Yuji Itadori.
Her eyes were red, and she glared at Fushiguro Megumi fiercely, "You're such a jerk! You did it on purpose!"
Fushiguro Megumi remained calm and walked past the two of them. "It has nothing to do with me. I didn't give you the candy."
The two of them followed behind with tears and snot, condemning Megumi Fushiguro for not having the love of her classmates.
Yuji Itadori sniffed, and his filter for his predecessors began to crumble. He always felt that this was just the tip of the iceberg of their true faces.
Megumi Fushiguro said that intuitively you win.
At the time agreed upon with Yuriko Sugimoto, Ryona was waiting at the station to meet her.
After a while, Sugimoto Yuriko trotted over and said, "Sorry, Ryouna, I'm late."
She was panting, having run all the way here, she had done all the exercise for the week.
"Don't be so anxious." Liang Nai patted her back to help her calm down. "I just got here a minute or two. I didn't wait long."
The sun was scorching, and not having an umbrella to shade me was a torture. Yuriko Sugimoto slapped her forehead in frustration, "Oops! I left my umbrella on the train."
Liang Na poked her face expressionlessly, "You, can you change your confused temper?"
She opened her umbrella and waited for Yamamoto Yuriko. "Fortunately, my umbrella is big enough. Come in."
"Hey, hello again, Ryouna."
She smiled innocently, quickly got under the umbrella, and said with feigned envy, "Yukimura Seiichi is so lucky to have a girlfriend as beautiful and kind-hearted as you."
The main purpose of Ryouna asking her out today was to choose a gift for Yukimura Seiichi. As she was acting, Sugimoto Yuriko really became a little jealous.
"You forget your friends when you have a boyfriend, Kirihara Ryona, you're a guy who forgets his friends when he sees a girl."
Sugimoto Yuriko was furious and started to complain to Ryouna, "I can't usually get you out, and if it weren't for picking out a gift for Yukimura Seiichi, we wouldn't be able to meet again until the end of time."
"...Everyone told you to watch less melodramatic TV shows, but you've ruined your brain." Arriving at the mall, Ryounai folded up her umbrella. "Didn't I go out with the puppy on the weekends two weeks ago?"
Then she began to count, "And last month, and the month before that—"
"Haha, well, let's go pick out a gift for you."
This was too much. Sugimoto Yuriko smiled awkwardly and pushed Ryona inside.
Liangnai made a "tsk" sound and said, "You little brat, you're too young to fight with her."
After walking around for a long time, Ryouna still couldn't make up her mind. Sugimoto Yuriko was exhausted and refused to leave, so she found a rest area and sat down.
"My dear aunt, you've been shopping for so long and still haven't decided what to give as a gift?"
Sugimoto Yuriko asked weakly, "After being together for so long, don't you know what Yukimura Seiichi likes?"
Liang Na also sat down, looking at the people coming and going and said worriedly, "It's because I know that I'm entangled."
She began to count on her fingers, "Xingcun likes tennis, plants and flowers, and painting..."
"There are too many choices, it's hard to decide." Ryona sighed and nudged Sugimoto Yuriko with her elbow, "That's why I asked you to come and help me with some advice."
Yuriko Sugimoto respectfully declined. People in love are so scary.
Suddenly, Yuriko Sugimoto had an idea.
"Just give him whatever he's been doing lately."
What are you doing recently? Thinking of the Kanto finals in the near future, Ryona came up with an idea.
Without saying a word, she dragged Sugimoto Yuriko towards the tennis store.
Sugimoto Yuriko, who hadn't rested enough, wailed, "Slow down, slow down, gifts can't run away."
After entering the store, the waiter greeted them warmly.
"Welcome, how can I help you?"
Ryouna shook her head, "No, we want to go shopping on our own."
After thinking for a long time, she decided to choose the hand gel and headband that Seiichi Yukimura often used.
In fact, she had already prepared a gift, an amulet she made by herself, but she felt that the sincerity was not enough, so she thought of preparing another gift.
Yuriko Sugimoto looked at Ryouna who was carefully choosing colors, touched her chin and started gossiping.
"It's not a special holiday recently, why do you suddenly want to give each other a gift?"
Having her sore spot touched, Liang Nai felt guilty and stammered, "That... is..."
"Oh, what is it? Tell me quickly." Yamamoto Yuriko asked anxiously.
"I had something urgent to do on Chinese Valentine's Day, so I stood him up."
"hiss--"
As a good friend, Yuriko Sugimoto couldn't help but feel sorry for Seiichi Yukimura for a second.
For a moment, neither of them spoke. Sugimoto Yuriko comforted him dryly, "It's okay, you didn't mean it. Besides, aren't you thinking of remedial measures now?"
She secretly complained in her heart that since Ryouna went to Tokyo, the academic pressure on her seemed to have increased. Is the pressure in vocational high school also so great?
The energetic voice of the store clerk was heard again in the store. Yuriko Sugimoto looked in the direction of the voice and saw two young men carrying tennis bags. Their handsome looks made her unable to help but take a few more glances.
Ryouna finally chose a blue glove and a white headband with a small daisy as an embellishment.
"Yuriko, I've picked it out."
Seeing that her friend ignored her, Liangnai followed her gaze and found that she was looking at an acquaintance, so she reminded her with some amusement.
"Wipe it quickly, your saliva is about to flow onto the ground."
Yuriko Sugimoto subconsciously touched her chin, realized what she had done, and hit Ryouna lightly in embarrassment.
She lowered her voice, afraid to attract attention, "Kirhara Ryouna, you are so mean!"
Fuji Shusuke also noticed the movement here. He didn't expect to see Ryouna here, "What a coincidence, Kirihara-senpai."
"Hmm, what a coincidence."
Her attention was attracted by the short-haired boy next to her who looked reluctant. The boy looked somewhat similar to Fuji Shusuke, and Ryouna guessed that he should be his brother.
"This is my younger brother, Yuuta Fuji." Fuji Shusuke introduced with a smile.
Fuji Yuta didn't deny it, but when he heard the word "brother", he frowned slightly and greeted them.
"Hello, seniors."
"It seems like there's been some conflict between the two." Ryounai silently ate the melon.
She was not familiar with Fuji Shusuke, so she exchanged a few polite words and prepared to pay the bill and leave.
When passing by Fuji Yuta, Ryouna keenly noticed that he had the aura of cursed energy, as if he was marked.
A sharp look flashed across her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.
She was about to ask the other party if he had encountered anything strange when she was interrupted by the beep of her cell phone.
The person who sent the message was Megumi Fushiguro. The message was very short, just two words.
Come quickly.
I have to thank the Atobe family again for their sponsorship. The satellite phone is a great helper for the sorcerer to exorcise cursed spirits when he is away from home.
Use: shake people
Liang Na thought to herself that this was not good, and quickly paid the bill. She then stuffed a postcard into each of the two brothers' pockets, and specifically instructed Fuji Yuta, "If you encounter anything strange, you can contact the person on the card."
Then she clasped her hands together and said to Yuriko Sugimoto, "I'm so sorry, Yuriko. I have something urgent to do and need to leave first. We can go shopping together next time."
Before Sugimoto Yuriko could ask what was going on, Ryona had already run away.
Fuji Yuta was at a loss holding the business card. He turned his head to look at Fuji Shusuke, "Brother?"
Fuji Shusuke, who was also stuffed with a postcard, didn't understand what was going on, so he had to ask Sugimoto Yuriko who was left behind.
"Senpai, do you know what Kirihara-senpai means?"
"I don't know." Yuriko Sugimoto shook her head. Out of trust in Ryouna, she also reminded Fuji Yuta again.
"Ryona is very capable. She must have her reasons for saying that. If you encounter something you can't solve, be sure to listen to the person on her contact card."
Something strange?
Fuji Yuta thought of the person he met a few days ago, who had long blue hair and a face covered with stitches.
This is also a strange thing.
However, he only met that person once, and Fuji Yuta didn't care much about it, so he thought there shouldn't be any problem.
However, Fuji Shusuke looked worried. Did Yuta encounter any trouble?
Ryona ran all the way to the entrance of the mall, so fast that passers-by looked at her sideways.
She remembered that Kenji Hagiwara was on a mission nearby, so she called him.
"Hey, Yan'er-nii, yes, come to the door to meet me."
Seeing the black Mazda, Ryona breathed a sigh of relief, opened the door, sat in the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt. The whole process took no more than five seconds.
"Hold it steady."
Kenji Hagiwara's eyes showed seriousness, he stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped away.
"What's going on?" The moment he received the notification from Liangnai, he rushed over without stopping.
"There's been another 'error' in Window's judgment." Ryouna said coldly, "The second-level cursed spirit in the juvenile detention center is a special-level one."
She still underestimated the shamelessness of the General Headquarters and their determination to get rid of Yuji Itadori.
"There's more than one cursed spirit inside."
Knowing the whole story, Hagiwara Kenji couldn't help but curse, "Are they crazy? They can't even accommodate a child?!"
Liangna didn't say anything. The general directorate kept touching her bottom line again and again. It seemed that they were still too comfortable.
The wind was like a knife, scratching her face painfully. Thinking of the noose that had escaped, she felt that he must have been the one who had interfered.
The cursed spirit that kidnapped him was at least of special grade. I want to know how many special grade ones you have.
Soon the wind stopped, Ryouna got out of the car and closed the door, and Hagiwara Kenji indicated that he would wait for them there.
When the assistant supervisor outside the tent saw Liang Na, it was like he saw a savior.
There was something obviously wrong with the time the three first-year students entered, and the message he sent to Gojo Satoru fell on deaf ears. Fortunately, Kirihara Ryona had arrived.
"I understand everything. I'll leave the outside to you and Brother Zhenping."
Without much nonsense, Liangnai stepped into the tent.
The juvenile detention center was in a mess, with dark red bloodstains all over the ground.
They actually have a cursed spirit that can expand its domain. These damn rotten oranges.
Ryona didn't dare to waste time and released her cursed power to explore the juvenile detention center.
Kugisaki Nobara separated from the two of them.
Ryouna summoned the red tiger and patted its back, "Go find Kugisaki."
She went to find Megumi Fushiguro and Yuji Itadori.
"Tijuji! Be careful!"
After capturing the source of the sound, Ryouna released the cursed power and the wall collapsed. Seeing that the cursed spirit was about to break through Yuji Itadori's chest, Ryouna immediately launched the technique.
"Burn it all!"
Shaken against the wall by the aftermath, Itadori Yuji covered his ribs and coughed twice, "Ahem, thank you, Kirihara-senpai."
Fushiguro Megumi wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said anxiously, "Senior, what about Kugisaki—"
"Don't worry." Ryouna's attention was focused on the cursed spirit. "Kugisaki has Akato on his side, so he'll be fine."
Now this is the most difficult part for them.
Fortunately, he is a freshman of special grade, and his field development is not complete.
"Old Orange was really ruthless. He even used Sukuna's fingers."
They shouldn't be allowed to keep these fingers. They keep "losing" one every few days. Old Orange feels comfortable, but they are the ones who are tired.
"Yuji, Fushiguro, both of you cooperate and buy me some time."
Time is running out, and she needs to spread her cursed energy molecules throughout the space in a short period of time.
She currently cannot expand her domain, but she can achieve the ultimate effect by releasing her own cursed power.
Last time at the Eighty-Eight Bridge, I used this trick to blow that special-grade cursed spirit into ashes.
"How long will it take?" Megumi Fushiguro summoned Nue and Tuotu again.
"Three minutes."
Three minutes is enough.
Ryouna's hair turned red-orange in the blink of an eye, and the air around her surged, and the temperature continued to rise.
Yuji Itadori dodged the attack and asked loudly, "Foshiguro, do you feel the temperature getting higher and higher?"
"It's the senior's technique." Fushiguro pursed his lips and hurriedly wiped away the sweat that was about to drip into his eyes.
Nue's lightning struck the Curse Spirit's eye, making it even more frantic.
The two were about to collapse, and Yuji wailed, "Senior, how much longer will you last!"
"Tsk, if you keep pushing me, I'll kill you all. Get out of the way!"
When the two heard this, their hearts tightened and they quickly ran to the sides.
The temperature grew higher and higher, and tens of thousands of flame-colored light spots gathered together to form a huge fireball, rolling towards the direction of the cursed spirit.
Soon, the fireball devoured the cursed spirit. Just when the two thought they could breathe a sigh of relief, Liang Nai shouted loudly, "Get down!"
Without time to think, the two men quickly lay down. The explosion caused them to have a brief tinnitus. The wall bricks collapsed, and a pile of bricks formed where the cursed spirit was.
Yuji Itadori patted himself with lingering fear. The senior was really terrifying.
Ryouna found Sukuna's finger from the ruins and threw it to Fushiguro Megumi with a little disgust.
"You keep it."
She sensed that the situation on the Red Tiger side was also over, and Kugisaki Nobara was lying unconscious on its back.
"Okay, we can't stay here for long, let's go."
"Wait a moment." Yuji squatted beside a dead boy, "I want to take him out and hand him over to his mother."
He looked at the two of them with expectant eyes, as if asking if it was okay.
"You're already planning on carrying him, so what's wrong with that?" Ryona said she had no objection.
Megumi Fushiguro just frowned. Although he felt that there was no point in doing so, when he met Yuji's bright eyes, the innocent heart that could not be ignored made him compromise.
"what ever."
Yuji Itadori was very happy, "Fushiguro, come and help me, I'll carry him out."
There was no other way, so Megumi Fushiguro casually put his fingers into his pockets and held the corpse so that Itadori could carry him up.
Just then, an accident happened.
Sukuna woke up.
A mouth suddenly appeared on Itadori's hand and attacked Fushiguro uncontrollably, trying to snatch the fingers from Fushiguro Megumi's pocket.
Megumi Fushiguro had no time to dodge, and the corpse pressed him to the ground, so he quickly dodged.
Yuji Itadori quickly used his other hand to stop it, and hit the mouth that appeared on his hand with his fist. "Why did you come out!"
Sukuna snorted, "What's wrong with me coming out to get my things?"
"You bastard, if you know what's good for you, just hand it over quickly."
The mouth on the hand disappeared and appeared on the profile of Yuji Itadori.
"Kid, your shadow technique is very unique. I like it very much."
"Hey, you're coveting my junior's technique right in front of me." Ryona smiled dangerously, "Sukuna, do you think I'm dead?"
This woman has a very disgusting spell, and her flames can touch the soul.
Sukuna fell silent and shrank back without waiting for Yuji to slap him.
The last time he took control of Yuji's body while he was unconscious, this woman was present. He hadn't eaten women and children for a long time, so naturally he wanted to use her as his first sexual experience.
He never thought that this woman's technique was related to the soul, so he fought with her and was burned badly.
Recalling the feeling of being burned, his soul trembled subconsciously.
Both Yuji Itadori and Megumi Fushiguro couldn't help swallowing their saliva. Kirihara-senpai is so strong that even Sukuna is afraid of her.
Akagawa lay down at the door early in the morning, with the unconscious Kugisaki on his back and the dying Jade Inu beside him.
Fushiguro Megumi took the jade dog back into the shadow and thanked Akagator solemnly.
"Chihu, thank you very much."
As a Shikigami user, he naturally has a life connection with the Shikigami, but he himself is too busy to save the jade dog.
"Hello——" It's no big deal, just treat me to two more pizzas.
Recently, Akahu has become obsessed with pizza, but Ryouna won't indulge him and will only have it once a week.
"No problem." A smile appeared in Fushiguro Megumi's eyes.
He looked at the sun hanging in the sky. The sunlight felt warm on his body, and the inexplicable feeling of heaviness dissipated.
It’s great that everyone is okay.
