Chapter 190 The Second Player

Saikai Haruto is waiting.

To him, waiting itself was a very common thing. He had been waiting for a very long time, so a little time was no longer a problem.

Even in the current situation, without timely "spoilers" from forums and comics, and the "memories" of the "previous round" can no longer serve as "plug-ins", he does not have any special means to truly control Hanayamain Haruna's heart... nor can he fully confirm that the direction of the "script" is really foolproof. He still "does nothing" and is waiting.

Xi Haiqing Dou quietly watched as the marks of "greedy beast" on his body became more and more.

Watching the Jujutsu Director's eyes looking at "Igarashi Yuuki" become more and more greedy, full of malice, and more and more straightforward.

Seeing that Gojo Satoru and Kagome Kai were unaware of anything, he looked more and more towards Hanayamain Haruna. As the conflict between them became more and more obvious, his eyes became more and more intense.

I watched as Hanayamain Haruna's influence grew, and I watched as she established a new church on the site that originally belonged to the "Pansei Cult."

It seems that both the little black cat Nicole, Nanako, and Mimiko have grown up a bit.

Xi Haiqing Dou quietly watched the summer pass away without everyone's knowledge, and the color of the maple leaves became brighter and brighter red.

It turns out that time passes quickly, he thought.

The time he had been waiting for came quickly.

It all started with a phone call from Shigekiro Fushiguro.

"I think there is something very interesting. If I don't tell you, it would be too boring." Fushiguro said, "If you don't know, then you are too miserable. So I'm here to be a good person."

His voice came through the receiver with a bit of distortion, and Xi Haiqing Dou was a little dazed. If it weren't for the familiar lazy tone mixed with a bit of cold sarcasm and gloating that sounded too familiar, he almost didn't recognize who it was.

Fushiguro Shiori said he wanted to be a "good person"? What kind of black humor is this?

"Mr. Fushiguro?" Saikai Haruto was neither surprised nor surprised by his call, but it was obvious that the other party wanted to hear some lively talk. Saikai Haruto could not help but remain silent for a moment and asked him, "What do you want to say?"

"The name of the special cursed spirit in your body is "Greedy Beast", right?" Fushiguro Shiersi was not affected by him at all. His voice was slow and he had a bit of an innocent smile on his face: "What should I do? Now I am not the only one who knows this news."

"I heard that the Jujutsu Directorate has issued an arrest warrant and a kill order for you. So, have you received it yet?"

There were a lot of extremely noisy and lively sounds in the background where Fushiguro Shier was, with a bit of fireworks, as if he was in a lively crowd at the moment. But fortunately, his voice was still very clear and could be clearly transmitted to his ears through those noisy sounds.

Saikai Haruto was silent for nearly half a minute before answering him honestly, "I haven't received it yet."

There are no messages on his phone now.

His voice was calm and steady, without any fear or panic, as if the news he heard was not about himself but about his biggest secret.

"..." Fushiguro Shiji's voice was still lazy, with a hint of lewdness, and a teasing tone, as if he was talking about something irrelevant: "I say, do you know who spread this news?"

"Ah, I wasn't sure at first, but now that you said that, Mr. Fushiguro, I think I can be completely sure." Saikai Haruto said calmly, without any surprise, "Is it Haruna?"

He lowered his head to look at the curser who had just failed in his sneak attack and was knocked down by him and passed out. Although he asked a question, he used an affirmative tone.

Fushiguro Shigeki laughed a few times on the other end of the phone.

At first it was a stifled laugh, but then as if he couldn't help it, the sound became louder and louder, and the laughter became more and more unbridled and hearty, and he laughed for several minutes before finally stopping.

"What? So you knew it all along?"

"Hey, I'm a little interested in you now." Fushiguro said happily, his tone was casually intimate: "Have you thought about how to retaliate?"

Saikai Haruto avoided answering and just said, "... Can I ask Mr. Fushiguro to take care of Nanako, Mimiko and Nicole for a few days? Yeah, I'll pay. Of course, if you don't have time, Xiaohui can help."

He reported a number, and Fushiguro swallowed back the cold words that he hadn't said yet, "I'm not interested in taking care of a kid who hasn't shed hair." He immediately smiled and said, "Oh, it's rare for you to be so generous, boss."

"But we agreed that it will only last a few days. If it takes longer, I will just throw those two brats away." Fushiguro said frivolously, "Don't die so soon, Yuuki."

What a pity, he had originally wanted to leave Fushiguro Megumi to Saikai Haruto's care for free.

That seems unlikely.

There was even a day when he was asked to help take care of other people's children and cats...what a hell.

Those little brats...ah, just leave them to Xiaohui when the time comes.

Well, considering that he invested so much money.

"Thank you, Mr. Fushiguro."

Saikai Haruto hung up the phone.

He stood there playing with his cell phone for a while. After putting the phone back into his pocket, he suddenly remembered an unimportant thing: This seemed to be the first time that Fushiguro Shiori called his name like this?

Ah, after all, this is the charm of money, right?

Unfortunately, he is now a pauper again.

Xi Haiqingdou stepped on the completely unconscious rookie curser under his feet, and seemed to be thinking about something.

...But he just saw that the bounty on his body on the black market seemed to have reached 500 million. Maybe he could try to sell himself and get some more money in the future?

"Senior Yuuki? Aren't you going back?"

Nanami Kento, who was on a mission with Saikai Haruto, turned around and looked at his senior standing there motionless with a strange look. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and his expression became serious: "... Is there any danger nearby that has not been discovered?"

"No, nothing. I just suddenly remembered that I had something to do."

Xi Haiqing Dou glanced at the cloudless sky, and first waved casually to the assistant supervisor who was waiting for Nanami Kento on the other side of the road. Then he smiled at Nanami Kento, and then handed the little black cat lying on his shoulder to Nanami Kento's arms, and said in a gentle but irresistible tone:

"I'm not going with you. Can you help me look after Nicole? Please. Oh, and this thing is also in your hands. If you can't find a way to deal with it, just throw it in the trash can--"

"Eh? Senior Yuuki? Wait...?" Nanami Kento hurriedly took the cat, looked at Nico who also had a confused look on her face, and looked at Nishimi Haruto's back as he turned and disappeared, somewhat confused.

It's strange. During this period of time, no matter what mission the senior went on, he would always bring Nicole with him and never separate from her... Is there something urgent?

"Senior...are you not going back to school?"

What to do? How to raise a cat? He has never raised a cat before.

...Let's go back to school and ask Huibara.

Of course, Saikai Haruto did not return to school.

He used Gojo Satoru's unlimited power and teleported to the place where the highest level of the Jujutsu Directorate was holding a meeting.

The huge conference room was lit with extremely blinding incandescent light, the door was closed, and the black curtains on the surrounding windows were all drawn. The conference table in the middle of the conference room was now full of people. The originally solemn and intense discussion atmosphere suddenly became quiet the moment he appeared.

"Igarashi Yuuki?!"

An old man whom Xi Haiqing Dou didn't know at all suddenly slammed the table, stood up with his hands on the conference table, looked at him, and said angrily: "Why are you here? ! ! "

...No, maybe it would be more accurate to change it to "shocked and angry".

"There is clearly a barrier set up by Master Tianyuan here, how did he get in?"

Someone is whispering.

"No matter how you got here, this is not the place for you! This is too outrageous!"

Some people were furious.

"Did he know something? Oh no, is there a spy somewhere?"

Some people are suspicious.

"It's really strange. You were looking for me, weren't you? That's why I came here." Saikai Haruto smiled at them. His smile was bright and clean as usual for "Igarashi Yuuki". His eyes were deep and clear, and he was curious: "Why do you seem to be unwelcoming to me now?"

"Igarashi Yuuki, are you too arrogant?"

An old man with a gray beard stood up slowly, his voice stern, his eyes like lightning, and a strong sense of oppression: "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you are a special class. This is not a place where you can be so unbridled."

"I'm so sorry. I'm going to be disrespectful and act recklessly here today."

Xi Haiqing Dou smiled calmly, saying an apology that was completely insincere, and opened his arms, narrowed his eyes, and the smile on his face widened. It was a rare look of wanton arrogance on his face: "Although it is very rude, but I have wanted to say it for a long time. To be honest, those little actions you made are really shameful enough. It's just like rats and cockroaches in the gutter. Although it doesn't hurt, it's really annoying. Ah, now I can finally say it."

"You are already old and immortal. Wouldn't it be better for you to stay at home and wait for your natural life or wait for death? Why do you have to do so many messy things behind my back? Do you want to step into the coffin one step ahead? I have always felt that the world of magic and your rules are very strange and annoying."

"But there is one thing you said that is true... all sorcerers are indeed crazy. I think now I can be considered a qualified sorcerer, right?"

"Igarashi Yuuki!!!"

"Ah, I can hear you. After all, I am not deaf nor am I suffering from Alzheimer's disease."

Xi Haiqingdou answered in a brisk voice. He dug his ear with his little finger and shook it casually. His eyes curved into a crescent shape, and his white teeth were exposed at the corners of his mouth. His canine teeth and dimples were faintly visible at the corners of his lips. The dark blue lines soon spread to his cheeks and arms.

"Isn't this what you want? Don't bother." He said to himself, "Although I always think I am an ordinary person... But now I am about to do something not so ordinary."
