Chapter 57 Chapter 57 What happened?!
Fushiguro Megumi felt that the guy in front of him had no good intentions.
Behind his sunglasses, which had slipped down his nose a little, he revealed his pale blue eyes, which held a mischievous smile. Gojo Satoru's gaze was fixed on his face, as if he didn't want to miss even the slightest change in his expression...
He is so annoying, I really want to beat him up today.
Megumi Fushiguro silently waved away his hand that was resting on her head, only to hum and then remain silent until Gojo Satoru burst into laughter (...
Fushiguro Megumi: “^_^++”
The laughter attracted everyone else's attention, and everyone asked questions. The unhappy boy with the sea urchin head stood up and grabbed the stick again. This time, he really wanted to beat someone up!
"Alright alright, I won't tease you anymore hahahahahahaha!!"
After taking a step back, Gojo Satoru finally stopped laughing, waved at him, and gave him a wink: "Keiko, remember to call Eri and Yuhito to come out for dinner later. I'll be leaving first. Bye!"
Fushiguro Megumi watched him leave expressionlessly, then turned and strode towards the center of the playground. She said solemnly to Zenin Maki, "Maki-senpai, I've rested. Let's continue."
The voice was a bit colder and harder than before, as if it carried the momentum of someone who wanted to vent all his inexplicable frustrations in battle. Zenin Maki showed a playful expression, tightened her grip on the stick, and rushed forward. "Then be more serious!"
Meanwhile, on the other side——
On the screen, the pale and distorted face of the Thai ghost Fusangsao occupied the entire picture. Whether it was the sound effects, the environment or the atmosphere, it simply brought the atmosphere of horror to the extreme.
Yuji Itadori himself is not afraid of ghosts, but it is different when he immerses himself in the movie.... He swallowed his saliva, stopped drinking Coke, and held the boxing bear in his arms, trying to continue to inject cursed power.
He was beaten many times in the first half of the movie, and now he has basically stabilized. He originally thought that he could probably hold on until the end of this horror movie, but Yuji Itadori clearly felt a chill on his back. If he had to say it, it was like being watched by a ghost, which was chilling and weird.
Yuji Itadori suddenly turned around and widened his eyes, but everything in the basement was normal and there was nothing behind him.
Hisuhito Polygonum cuspidatum: "....."
...Is it really an illusion? But he really feels like someone is staring at him!
At this moment, Eri Kimoto, who was sitting not far away, half leaning against the Polar Bear Curse Corpse on the other side of the sofa, also looked at him puzzledly and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
Yuji Itadori, who got goosebumps, shook his head, thinking that it might be his illusion.
But not long after, when the male protagonist in the movie was frightened by the sudden ghost face, Yuji Itadori clearly! Clearly felt something cold pressed against the back of his neck!!!
“!!!”
Yuji Itadori's pupils shrank suddenly, and in shock he punched behind him with a fist filled with cursed power, but it still hit nothing, there was nothing behind him.
Moreover, this action also woke up the boxing bear in his arms. With an uppercut, he directly knocked Yuji Itadori away. Yuji Itadori fell to the ground, holding his butt and screaming: "Ah, it hurts, it hurts!!!"
"What are you doing, Hisahito?"
"Yuhito," the two words were emphasized with an upward tone. Eri Kimoto herself didn't realize that her expression now was like a little black cat that had stolen dried fish, and its non-existent tail was swaying behind her proudly.
Yuji Itadori got up from the ground, covered his mouth, and looked at her with a sad face: "This basement feels like there is really a ghost!"
"Ahahahahahahahahaha!" Eri Kimoto couldn't hold it in any longer and laughed out loud, clutching her stomach. "How could there be ghosts in Jujutsu High School? Hahahahahahaha, besides, aren't you afraid of ghosts?!"
A cursed spirit doll suddenly appeared from under the sofa, then vanished from his sight, as if it had come out specifically to say hello. Now, what was there to not understand?
A dazed Itadori Yuji held down the boxing bear that was about to punch him again, then lay on the back of the sofa, looking at the very happy Eri Kimoto and hummingly explaining, "It's true that I'm not afraid of ghosts, but Eri, you were really scary when you matched the scenes in the movie!"
The soundtrack of the movie became terrifying again. Holding the boxing bear Cursed Bear in his arms tightly and holding it in front of his face, with only a pair of big eyes exposed, Yuji Itadori swallowed his saliva. He felt that it was too strong to be able to control himself from being beaten by Cursed Bear at this time... Especially after Fuso Sao's ghost face hit his face again,
Yuji Itadori's face was filled with sorrow: "Do you really want to watch the Grudge later, Eri? I want to watch Doraemon or SpongeBob SquarePants."
Wiping away the tears of laughter from the corners of her eyes with her fingers, Eri Qimoto laughed and patted the empty seat next to her, signaling him to go back to his seat quickly and that she would not scare him anymore.
"By the way, Eri, you're amazing." Yuji Itadori, who had sat down again, turned his head to look at her, his tone much more serious: "How can you control your cursed energy so well?"
"Because..." Eri Kimoto tilted her head in an innocent manner, but it looked like she was teasing: "Because I'm a genius too?"
Knotweed Hisahito: "...QAQ."
After a burst of laughter, Eri Kimoto waved her hands and became more serious. "Maybe it has something to do with the technique I was born with? After all, my technique requires very precise control."
The polar bear Jukai was still soundly sleeping. He had not woken up once since Gojo Satoru put him in her arms. Eri Kimoto supported him with her right hand and used her left hand to conjure up a Jukai puppet to demonstrate to him.
The dark red threads of cursed energy that emerged from her fingers wrapped around the joints of the cursed spirit doll. As Eri Kimoto's fingers moved, the doll began to tap dance in the air. Itadori Yuji's gaze slowly moved upwards from the doll's body, finally landing on the girl's face with a slightly raised corner of her lips.
She was just sitting there quietly... maybe it was because of the way she was looking at the doll? But with her eyes downcast, it felt like she was in control of everything.
Yuji Itadori is not good at describing, but she always makes people feel that she has a sense of arrogance as if she is in a superior position. This is what a strong person looks like! So this is what a strong person looks like! Yuji Itadori felt for a moment that a sacred light appeared behind this person, and the title of "strong person" was already bold and red and stuck on Eri Nori's head.
The pink-haired boy immediately shouted respectfully, "Eri-sama! Please teach me! I also want to become a strong man as powerful as Eri-sama!!"
Already very familiar with everyone's sudden desire to act, Eri Kimoto took the role without hesitation: "Alright! Then call me Master first, let me hear it!!"
"Master!!!"
Yuji Itadori's eyes sparkled: "Can you teach me some methods of controlling cursed energy?!"
"Hmph! Fine then, I'll teach you my method!"
Eri Kimoto raised her chin proudly and spoke under the boy's expectant gaze, "I'll use my imagination. I'll imagine my cursed energy as a thread, and imagine it slowly invading from the point of contact until it completely takes over the opponent's body. Ahhh, isn't it interesting! In the end, they'll become my marionette and be at my mercy!!"
Hisuhito Polygonum cuspidatum: "..."
....What kind of villain statement is this!
"But you're amazing, Hisahito. Aside from that moment at the beginning of the movie, you've been pretty consistent until now, haven't you?" Eri Kimoto blinked. "I think you're surprisingly talented."
Comforted, Itadori Yuji chuckled and scratched his head, then quietly suggested, "Come to think of it... can I try Eri's Kirby... no, the Polar Bear Cursed Corpse? I want to see how difficult it is to control this level of cursed energy."
What the hell? So he also thinks this polar bear is of the same size as Snorlax. Eri Kimoto nodded and kindly reminded him, "Okay, but you have to be careful. You know what this punch will do—"
Yuji Itadori's face was serious: "I understand!"
Taking the normal boxing bear from his hand, Eri Kimoto, who didn't want to get beaten up at the same time, stood up to make room for him and reminded him again, "Slow down and change with me."
"Um!"
Yuji Itadori walked up to her side, slowly stretched out his hand and touched the body of the still sleeping Cursed Corpse. At the same time, Eri Kimoto also slowly withdrew her hand.
At the same time, neither of them noticed the sound of the basement door being opened, nor did they hear the slight footsteps coming towards them.
As soon as Yuji Itadori placed his right hand on the body of the Cursed Corpse, his expression changed immediately. He immediately placed his other hand on it. It felt that Eri was not in the same league as the Boxing Bear he had just controlled. Apart from the fact that he was still a rookie, Eri was indeed very strong.
Turning his head to Eri Nori, he nodded vigorously in affirmation. Itadori Yuji was very serious: "Strong——"
"careful!"
Eri Kimoto, who was standing next to him, suddenly stretched out her hand and held down the Cursed Corpse who was about to wake up in time. Although the two of them were a little too close and it looked more like Yuji Itadori was being bear-butted when viewed from the side, this was not the point. The point was the Cursed Corpse, and she did not suddenly attack and hurt anyone.
Yuji Itadori breathed a sigh of relief and admired him again, "Eri, you're really good. This punch must have really hurt!"
The footsteps that had just appeared stopped at the door and moved forward dully.
At this moment, because she was praised again, Eri Kimoto raised the corner of her mouth and hummed: "Don't worry, as long as Eri-sama is here, this mere Snorlax can't hurt... you..."
“....”
“....”
Feeling the gaze, Eri Kimoto raised her head and when she looked towards the door, her eyes met with the boy's.
I don't know if it's because of the distance or the dim light from the screen, but Eri Kimoto seems unable to see the emotions in Fushiguro Megumi's eyes, but she clearly feels his bad mood at the moment.
Maybe it was because he had his lips tightly pursed and his brows furrowed, an expression that was not common.
“…Huh?”
“Ah ...
Along with her doubtful voice, there was also the sound of whistling fists, and the next second, the sound of Itadori Yuji being thrown three meters away and falling to the ground with a thud.
...Eri-sama persisted for two hours!
But now! Eri was just saying she wouldn't get hit, and before she even finished speaking, she got hit!
This is really a heavy punch! Who will feel sorry for themselves?
Yuji Itadori covered his face and shed two big tears, his voice extremely sad: "Eri-sama! What's going on?!"
Lady Eri didn't know how to explain. Her attention was now focused on the low-pressure boy at the door.
Megumi Fushiguro often has a blank expression, but now it's no longer blank! Eri Kimoto grabbed the polar bear's fist with one hand and released her cursed power to put it back to sleep.
"Hey Fushiguro, when did you get here?"
Yuji Itadori, who was covering his nose, turned around in a muffled voice and immediately gasped when he saw the boy's expression. For some reason, he felt that this classmate now looked even uglier than the ghost in the movie.
Fushiguro-san gave his answer: "."
Hisuhito Polygonum cuspidatum: "....."
Yuji Itadori felt inexplicably guilty, although he didn't know what he was feeling guilty about!
But he still got goose bumps when he saw Fushiguro's cold gaze. Yuji Itadori swallowed his saliva and turned to look at Eri Kimoto: "Haha...ha..."
He was stunned! Help!
Eri Norimoto, who was staring at him, gave him a look that said 'look at me', then looked at the boy at the door and asked, "What's wrong, Fushiguro-kun?"
...Didn’t Fushiguro Megumi’s expression become even colder now, Eri-sama! ! !
Yuji Itadori's pupils dilated, and he was puzzled by the boy's inexplicable tightening of his lips. Is this basement really that cold!?
The mixed feeling of irritation and dissatisfaction that had been accumulating since before, Fushiguro Megumi's voice was forced with calmness: "Gojo teacher asked me to call you to dinner."
After saying that, he turned around and left without even waiting for their response.
“…”
“…”
Yuji Itadori, who was still rubbing his face, said: "What's wrong with him?!"
