Chapter 281 Chapter 281 Old friends meet again.
281
"Atsushi-kun and Akutagawa ran into each other during last night's commotion and had a truly thrilling fight."
Dazai Osamu stood at the door of the ward and sighed as he looked at Nakajima Atsushi, who was almost wrapped like a dumpling.
The ward was dark, with doors and windows closed, and only a dim light.
Li Xiaoqi crossed his arms, a helpless look appearing between his brows.
"Do these two have to have a fateful showdown?"
"Probably."
Sakata Gintoki picked his nose and said nonchalantly.
"It's really miserable."
Gojo Satoru leaned against the door, teasing without any genuine emotion.
"Do you want to treat him?"
Li Xiaoqi took out a wild mushroom and chicken skewers from his backpack and shook them in front of Dazai Osamu, then gave Nakajima Atsushi a look of pity.
"Poor child."
Dazai Osamu took a bite of the signature and mumbled through the chicken, "No, no, no. This world's Atsushi is more radical. He won't die anyway, so let him calm down in bed for a few days."
After hearing his words, Li Xiaoqi didn't know what to say, but just suggested going to the next anchor point.
"So soon?"
Dazai Osamu curled his lips, his iris-colored eyes revealing a complex emotion, "It's the end anyway, why not stay a little longer?"
Just after opening the anchor point on the rooftop, the system issued a new notification.
"Congratulations to the anchor for opening the first anchor in this world. Please open all remaining anchors within the next 48 hours."
Li Xiaoqi thought of what the administrator Liu Yue had read out and smiled bitterly.
"Even if we want to leave slowly, but..."
She stopped mid-sentence.
Dazai Osamu was slightly startled, and after scanning the faces of everyone in front of him, he asked, "How long will it take?"
"Less than 48 hours."
Sakata Gintoki said softly.
Dazai Osamu was silent for a moment, and secretly clenched his hands as he reached into his coat.
He walked to the window and drew aside the heavy curtains.
The sunlight shone on the hospital bed. Nakajima Atsushi frowned slightly and subconsciously turned his head away to avoid the sudden light.
He did not regain consciousness and remained in a deep coma.
"Why are you in such a hurry?"
Dazai Osamu looked up at the blue sky, and his soft words sounded like a sigh.
Li Xiaoqi was stunned, lowered his eyes and said nothing.
They also don't know why the system is so anxious.
"Although the world's rifts have been repaired, the risk of this world being invaded by other viruses is extremely high. To prevent this system from being attacked, we must leave this world as soon as possible."
Administrator June's sudden answer left Li Xiaoqi and Sakata Gintoki a little stunned. They looked at each other with a look of doubt between their brows.
Why was it attacked?
"The S-class mind-invading virus issued a wanted notice to the entire dimension the second before it was devoured. If it devours this system, it will be upgraded to S-class."
...This is really insidious.
Li Xiaoqi wiped his face and sighed deeply.
So after we all return to our respective worlds, where will you go back to?
"This system will travel to a higher-dimensional world, choose its next host, continue collecting energy, and become a higher-level being."
What is the so-called higher-dimensional world? What is the higher-level existence?
The system did not respond.
Li Xiaoqi didn't get an answer and didn't delve into it further.
She has some complicated emotions towards the system. Along the way, although she is often angry at the system's coercive behavior, she will always protect them when they are in danger.
Like a strange friend.
But if you fail to complete the task according to the system's wishes, you will be wiped out, which makes you seem like an enemy.
But as the system's level gets higher and higher, it seems to gradually develop some human emotions.
After eliminating the S-level mind-invasion virus, the system did not re-enable the gift-giving function, and some inexplicable settings also disappeared.
For example, the same dress-up function as Nuannuan...
The prop interface is still open, but the prop synthesis function has been closed.
It’s as if the system has made enough money and feels it can retreat.
Li Xiaoqi smiled slightly, then she came back to her senses and looked at everyone and said, "Let's go to Bingsheng Middle School."
Dazai Osamu was stunned. Seeing Li Xiaoqi turn around decisively, he lowered his eyes to hide his lost look.
*
Outside the wall of Bingsheng Middle School, Li Xiaoqi turned his wrist and prepared to climb over the wall.
Suddenly, Gojo Satoru raised the corners of his lips, and a teasing look flashed across his eyes.
He stretched out his hands, put them under Li Xiaoqi's armpits, and lifted her up like a child.
Li Xiaoqi screamed and flapped his legs, "Put me down!"
Gojo Satoru widened the smile on his lips, exerted force on his wrist, and threw her straight up.
Li Xiaoqi widened his eyes and flew over the wall in a parabolic trajectory.
“Bang—”
A collision sound was heard, and Li Xiaoqi felt a strong impact in his dizziness.
“It hurts, it hurts—”
The boy's voice sounded beneath him, and it was surprisingly familiar.
Li Xiaoqi rolled onto the grass, quickly stood up, and looked at the young man who was sitting on the ground.
The boy had dark red hair that was as dark as black hair, and wore a sun-patterned earring on his ear.
He pressed his forehead in a daze and blinked slowly.
"Tanjiro-kun?"
Li Xiaoqi looked at the boy who looked exactly like Tanjiro Kamado and blurted out in surprise.
Dazai Osamu, Sakata Gintoki, and Gojo Satoru jumped onto the wall and looked surprised when they saw this scene.
The young man was startled and looked up quickly.
The woman tied her black hair up into a bun on her head and stood in front of him wearing a light black casual sportswear.
Long-forgotten memories surged back as the sunlight fell into the boy's eyes. He suddenly opened his eyes wide with a look of surprise.
"Ms. Nana?"
"Huh?"
Li Xiaoqi was stunned and immediately squatted down to pull him up.
"Do you still remember your past life?"
Tanjiro Kamado nodded, looked at the wall behind Li Xiaoqi, and was immediately startled.
“Wooah!”
He widened his eyes, his gaze fell on Dazai Osamu and Sakata Gintoki, and shouted in disbelief.
"Mr. Dazai! Mr. Sakata!"
Dazai Osamu put away his surprised look, smiled, raised his hand and waved it.
"Oh, I didn't expect to see someone familiar in this world."
Sakata Gintoki jumped down and raised his hand to press down Kamado Tanjiro's head, "It's really fate."
He seemed to have remembered something, and pointed at Dazai Osamu and said, "That's perfect, when you have time, call this guy out to play."
Dazai Osamu shook his head frantically and refused, "No way, getting up so early every day to run, are you trying to kill me?"
"That's perfect, Dazai, aren't you seeking death?"
Gojo Satoru chuckled and patted Dazai Osamu on the back.
Dazai Osamu staggered, puffed up his cheeks in dissatisfaction, and glared at Gojo Satoru.
Tanjiro Kamado was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst out laughing.
"So Mr. Dazai is from a hundred years from now. That's great."
"We meet again."
He smiled brightly, his earrings swaying in the breeze. "Then we can see each other more often."
Li Xiaoqi and Sakata Gintoki didn't say anything, but just smiled gently.
"By the way, has a strange device appeared in your school?"
Tanjiro Kamado nodded honestly, "Yes, it's the same device as the one in the lord's house during the Taisho era. It's on the rooftop of the teaching building. I guess you're all here to deal with that device."
Li Xiaoqi nodded and asked curiously, "Where's Nezuko?"
"Nezuko is preparing for the school festival with her classmates."
Tanjiro Kamado replied obediently.
He took out a note from his pocket and put it into Li Xiaoqi's palm.
"This is my home address. Everyone is welcome to visit my home. Nezuko will definitely be very happy to see you."
"Hey, Kamado, rehearsal for the school festival is about to begin!"
Suddenly, a student popped his head out and shouted at Tanjiro Kamado.
"Okay, I'll be right there."
Tanjiro Kamado turned his head and answered.
"Our school festival will start tomorrow, you should join us."
As he spoke, he took out a few tickets from his pocket and distributed them to Li Xiaoqi and his group.
"Then I'll be leaving first."
Tanjiro Kamado waved goodbye energetically and left with his classmates.
"Those are the adults from outside, right? They obviously climbed over the wall to get in. Don't they need to report to the Discipline Committee?"
"Please, they are my friends, please keep it a secret for me, okay?"
"Well, since he's your friend, Tanjiro, he shouldn't be a bad person. I'll keep it a secret for you."
"Thanks--"
Li Xiaoqi held the note tightly in his hand and smiled as he looked at Tanjiro Kamado's back.
Dazai Osamu blinked slowly and chuckled softly.
"What a surprise."
Gojo Satoru gently patted Dazai Osamu's shoulder and said, "I feel more at ease with them around."
"Yes, if Tanjiro is here, the others should have been reincarnated in this world as well."
Sakata Gintoki sighed.
Dazai Osamu curled his lips in dissatisfaction and said, "You are talking to me like my parents—"
Li Xiaoqi laughed out loud and raised his hand to tap Dazai Osamu's forehead.
"So, you should spend more time in the sun with Tanjiro and the others in the future."
Dazai Osamu opened his eyes wide, and his eye sockets suddenly turned red.
He covered his forehead and shook his head gently.
"don't want."
"Hi."
Li Xiaoqi shrugged and turned to walk towards the teaching building.
Gojo Satoru and Sakata Gintoki each grabbed one of Dazai Osamu's hands and ran forward.
"Go to anchor."
Hearing the sound of running, Li Xiaoqi quickened his pace and ran on the deserted path behind the teaching building.
Several people chased each other from the emergency exit to the rooftop like students.
As the rooftop door was pushed open, Li Xiaoqi, Dazai Osamu, Gojo Satoru and Sakata Gintoki sprinted to the anchor point as if they were running a competition, and all put their hands on the anchor device.
A blue light flashed, and the seal around the anchor point was released.
The wind blew across everyone's faces, and students were enjoying their youth on the playground below.
Li Xiaoqi faced the wind and looked back at his companions.
"Let's go, next one."
Dazai Osamu opened his lips slightly, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Li Xiaoqi walked past Dazai Osamu, his hair floating past his eyes.
Dazai Osamu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he suddenly couldn't say anything.
Gojo Satoru and Sakata Gintoki followed Li Xiaoqi and walked forward.
Dazai Osamu stood there, slowly stretched out his hand, and whispered in the wind.
"Don't leave me."
