Chapter 203 Extra 4 (Hu Zi's Perspective)
Jujutsu High School is a very strange school. Every teacher there is strange, and even some of the students are strange.
Yuji Itadori thought so.
First of all, Mr. Gojo is weird.
Mr. Gojo Satoru is Yuji Itadori's homeroom teacher. He is a guy with super strong abilities but a very frivolous personality (according to an anonymous senior). He was the second person Itadori met at the Jujutsu High School.
In addition to being the homeroom teacher, he also worked part-time as the monitor of the psychological counseling room at Jujutsu High School. He was single but adopted a pair of twins with a different surname from him... He was even Fushiguro's guardian.
When Itadori first met him, Gojo Satoru was silent for several seconds, then smiled and said to him: "Youjin, remember to be careful not to be swallowed by Sukuna. Of course, if you have any problems, remember to find a teacher."
Although he was smiling and his expression looked a little gentle, Yuji had a feeling that Mr. Gojo was not very happy at that time.
And even the expression on his face when he called his name was a little strange...it was as if he was calling someone else.
However, this situation only happened once and it never happened again. So Yuji Itadori quickly put this unimportant matter behind him because of the accumulation of many other things.
However, when they talked about Sukuna again, that question suddenly came to his mind again, and Yuji Itadori asked bravely.
Gojo Satoru did not answer but asked: "Youren, do you still remember what I told you before about the curse and human beings coexisting?"
Yuji Itadori nodded.
Before he officially joined Jujutsu High School, Mr. Gojo had a conversation with him. At that time, he told him seriously that according to the rules of the Jujutsu world, he would be secretly executed.
Of course Yuji Itadori was startled, but before he could say anything, Mr. Gojo, who was pretending to be serious with a frivolous smile, was quickly beaten up by Mr. Getsu who rushed over (I think so?), so he quickly changed his expression and told him:
"But don't worry, Your luck is pretty good, Your Highness. The world of curses has changed the rules a while ago. Since it's not the first time that curses coexist with human consciousness, Your Highness, you just need to transfer to the Curse High School to study. Of course, your homeroom teacher is me, the super hot-tempered teacher. Are you happy?"
Yuji Itadori was very straightforward: "But I feel like Mr. Getsu looks more mature?"
Gojo Satoru couldn't stop laughing, while Kagome Kei looked helpless.
Yuji Itadori didn't understand why Gojo Satoru was laughing.
After he finally stopped laughing, Gojo Satoru continued, "Of course, that's because the mature Geto-sensei has other important tasks to complete! So he won't be available all the time during a single teaching session."
Yuji Itadori slightly confused - I understand, so what you mean is that Mr. Takeyu has other jobs besides being a teacher, so he is busy and cannot teach students all the time?
—Wait, I accidentally strayed off topic… let's get back to the topic.
Anyway, before he entered the technical high school, Mr. Gojo had told him that... there had been cases of "humans and cursed consciousness coexisting" before him, so his case had more possibilities - in short, he didn't have to be executed.
But at that time, neither Gojo Sensei nor Getsu Sensei mentioned much about the example before him.
So, is it time to take that example?
"Ten years ago, before you, Hisahito, there was also a senior at the Jujutsu High School who was in a similar situation to you. He was possessed by a special cursed spirit, but the consciousness of both people coexisted..."
Gojo Satoru said slowly, "However, unlike you, Yujin, that guy was completely unaware of this situation at first - because at that time, his own consciousness completely suppressed the consciousness of the cursed spirit in his body, so for a long time, he looked exactly the same as before in most aspects."
Yuji Itadori's eyes lit up: "Gojo-sensei, what you mean is that maybe in the future I will be able to completely suppress Sukuna's consciousness?"
He stared at Gojo Satoru intently, his eyes bright and full of hope, completely ignoring the constant taunting in his mind from Ryoumen Su-nan that he had been deceived by Gojo Satoru: "Do you think your physique is really that bad? Not every human being is qualified to be my vessel, and their consciousness can still exist intact, kid."
Yuji Itadori just thought Sukuna was farting.
"No."
Gojo Satoru smiled, but shook his head firmly at Itadori Yuji, and ruthlessly denied his answer without hesitation: "Actually, that guy only did this for a period of time at the beginning, but then he 'lost control'... In the end, he and the cursed spirit in his body, perhaps, merged into one."
"ah?"
Yuji Itadori was confused.
Is this story actually a tragedy?
The Sukuna in his body sneered again: "Impossible, what fusion... That guy must have been devoured by the cursed spirit."
The tone is extremely firm.
——Because as “containers”, humans only have this possibility.
So Yuji Itadori asked Sukuna honestly what he had asked.
"Because that guy is very special." Gojo Satoru said as a matter of course: "That guy can be said to be a one-in-a-million miracle. Maybe it's because that guy Sukuna is not experienced enough and has never seen such a 'miracle', so he said that. But I'm different - Gojo-sensei, I have seen it."
A hint of childish smugness appeared on his face, and his tone was proud and confident, as if it was also full of pride: "My 'Six Eyes' are super powerful - I will never make a mistake."
Mr. Gojo is so awesome! Yuji Itadori looked at him in shock and admiration.
Ryomen Sukuna was so angry that he burst into cursing.
Yuji Itadori could no longer care about him and asked cautiously, "So, what happened to him later? What happened to him?"
Gojo Satoru was silent for two seconds: "I don't know."
His usual casual smile appeared on his face: "That guy, he just disappeared in the end. No one has seen him since then, so no one knows what his current situation is like."
Yuji Itadori was surprised: "Haven't you even met Mr. Gojo and Mr. Getsu?"
Gojo Satoru nodded with a smile: "Even Jie and I have never seen each other again."
"So, Yuji, you have to be careful too. If it's not necessary... No, no matter what the situation is, don't trust that guy Ryomen Sukuna, and don't listen to him - don't listen to a word. I don't want to see my students in that situation again."
Gojo Satoru's expression suddenly became serious. He spoke the last sentence in a low voice, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.
"I understand, teacher." Yuji Itadori was started by the example he gave, and finally nodded in a daze.
It was not until the end of that conversation that Yuji Itadori suddenly realized that -
What Mr. Gojo meant was, does he know that person? And... ah, and, he seemed to have forgotten to ask the teacher, what that person's name was.
I don't know why, maybe the two people's "experiences" are somewhat similar? Maybe that person can be regarded as Yuji Itadori's "predecessor" to some extent... In any case, he gradually became curious about that person.
So he began to secretly ask the friends around him.
The first person he asked was of course the first person he met in the world of sorcery and also his first classmate - Megumi Fushiguro.
Of course, Megumi Fushiguro is also a very strange person.
It is said that student Megumi Fushiguro comes from a very poor family. He has a father who is often away from home and is extremely out of tune with his parents, and who even causes him trouble. He is also often harassed by many troublesome, annoying, and feudal family members related to his father, so he was eventually forced to enter a technical high school.
Yuji Itadori has even heard people call him "Master Hui" as a joke.
——Maybe it's a true portrayal of something like "If you don't go to school, you have to go home and inherit the family business"?
As a result, he is said to know a lot about many things.
So naturally Yuji Itadori came to him.
Fushiguro Megumi was silent for a few seconds after hearing this, then suddenly frowned and asked him, "Where did you know all this?"
It was natural that Yuji Itadori "gave up" Gojo Satoru.
"You two are of no use as a reference." Fushiguro Megumi said slowly, his tone very serious: "That guy is a heaven and cursed, and the cursed spirit in his body is also very different from Sukuna... In short, his story is of little reference value to you."
"Heaven and Curse", and thus Yuji Itadori got knowledge of a new curse term.
However, he also heard something else from Fushiguro Megumi's answer, so he asked him curiously: "Fushiguro, do you also know that person? Do you know his name?"
Fushiguro Megumi nodded silently.
"I met him when I was very young." He summarized it briefly in one sentence, hesitated for a moment, and still did not tell Yuji Itadori the man's name: "For some reasons, anyway... it's best not to mention his name, so I won't tell you. If you really want to know... maybe you can ask Mr. Getsu."
"It's better not to mention his name." Why is that? Yuji Itadori became even more curious.
However, since Mr. Getsu's whereabouts were rather erratic, before finding him, Yuji Itadori took the time to curiously ask another girl in his grade, Norose Kugizaki, as well as Principal Yoga, and even Assistant Supervisor Kiyotaka Ichichi.
However, Nagizaki knew nothing just like him... No, she knew even less than he did, and she didn't even know that such a person existed. When Yuji Itadori asked her about it, she was even more shocked than he was, and even asked him many questions in return.
In the end, Yuji Itadori escaped in a very desperate manner.
Ijichi, like Kugizaki, seemed to know nothing.
Principal Yaga obviously knew much more than Fushiguro Megumi, Kugizaki, and Ijichi, and seemed to know more than Gojo-sensei... But like Fushiguro Megumi, he didn't tell Yuji Itadori anything. In the end, he only learned one thing from the principal - that person seemed to have been a student of Jujutsu High School, and was even a classmate of Gojo-sensei and Takeyu-sensei.
Principal Noctua is also a very strange person.
Yuji Itadori thought about it, and involuntarily recalled the exam and those questions that Principal Noctua took when he entered the school.
Principal Yega seemed to not want him to join the school... He said that if he wanted to live safely and smoothly, the best way was to continue to be an ordinary student and not to enter a technical high school. At that time, Mr. Gojo, who had been persuading him to enter a technical high school from the beginning, did not refute Principal Yega's words, but nodded and seemed to agree.
...What a strange principal and teacher.
However, Yuji Itadori obviously doesn't think so.
Then, when they heard his final answer, for some reason, both Principal Yega and Teacher Gojo were silent for a moment... as if their mood suddenly became depressed.
How strange.
However, Principal Noctua agreed to let him enroll.
"It's good for yourself, but, Hisahito, don't forget the teacher standing next to you."
Later, Teacher Gojo smiled and touched his head, and told him: "If you have any problems, remember to go to the teacher first, don't fight it yourself, the teacher is the best."
"Of course, if there are still problems that the teacher can't solve, you can also go to Mr. Geta." He added reluctantly, "Teacher Geta is just like Mr. Gojo, he is also super strong."
——Of course, he had also said these words to Kugizaki...Yuji Itadori even suspected that he had said similar words to Megumi Fushiguro before.
It is rare to see the proud and confident Gojo teacher say that there are problems that he cannot solve. Both Yuji Itadori and Kugizaki were a little surprised.
"Teacher, you're not the strongest, are you?" Nagizaki asked, "Is there anything that the strongest can't solve?"
"Yes," Gojo Satoru admitted it very calmly, which was rare for him. He said calmly, "Even if you are the strongest, there are things you can't do."
They seemed to sense a long-lasting sorrow from these words, and they were speechless.
Shaking his head to get rid of those memories, Yuji Itadori finally went to ask Mr. Getsu with this question.
Of course, like Mr. Gojo, Mr. Getsu is also a very strange person.
The first time Yuji Itadori met Geto Suguru was before entering technical high school, when he was talking to Gojo Satoru. Geto Suguru was wearing a monk's robe that looked a little strange, and he had a calm and solemn demeanor, and he did not look dim even when standing next to Gojo Satoru.
The second time was in the Jujutsu High School, still next to Gojo Satoru. Geto seemed to be talking to him, and he looked like he had just hurried back from outside the school.
Yuji Itadori greeted Gojo Satoru happily, and then he saw Geto Takeru turned his head and looked at him with a strange look in his eyes. As the distance was a little far, Yuji Itadori couldn't figure out what that meant, but that was the first time he felt that Teacher Takeru was also a very "strange" person.
Gojo Satoru quickly introduced them to each other, and Yuji Itadori learned that Kagome Kagome did have another job outside... and it was very busy. It was only later that Yuji Itadori learned that the "other job" was to be the president of the Jujutsu General Administration Department.
...Teacher Geto is also amazing.
Unlike Mr. Gojo, Mr. Getsu has a more calm and reserved personality. He is not as indulgent as Mr. Gojo. Although he often has a smile on his face, Yuji always feels an inexplicable sense of distance from him. At first, he was always hesitant to speak or act in front of him as casually as he did with Mr. Gojo... It felt like he had met the dean of studies.
Of course, after spending more time together, Yuji Itadori discovered that Mr. Getsuyuki was actually a very easy-to-talk-to teacher, just like Mr. Gojo, so he gradually let go of himself and their interactions became more casual.
Even when they saw a special-grade cursed spirit during their first mission as students, and Gojo-sensei was not available, it was Takeyu-sensei who came over to solve the problem.
Of course, it was also at that time that Yuji Itadori discovered for the first time that Geto Suguru also carried a box of candy with him.
Moreover, he later saw Gojo-sensei asking Getu-sensei for it...but Getu-sensei said he would not give it to him no matter what.
Obviously, no matter what kind of sweets it was, Geto-sensei would always give Gojo-sensei an extra portion when he met him?
How strange.
…We seem to have strayed off topic again. Let’s get back to the topic.
However, this time when Yuji Itadori came to see him, he thought that the result would be the same as when he asked Principal Noctua, and that he would not be able to get anything out of him...but unexpectedly, Geto Suguru told him very readily.
As soon as Yuji Itadori asked the question, Geto Suguru nodded.
"Wu told you, right?" He smiled, seemingly not surprised at all.
Yuji Itadori nodded.
"That guy, like Nozomi, is a contemporary of Satoru and I. His name is Igarashi Yuuki." Summer Oil Ken said in a flat tone and his expression seemed calm, but there was a faint flash of nostalgia in his eyes.
"Igarashi Yuuki"... It's the same last name as the two Igarashi seniors.
Such a thought flashed through Yuji Itadori's mind.
Then, Yuji Itadori heard a story with "Yuki Igarashi" as the protagonist from Geto Suguru.
At the end of the story, the man named "Igarashi Yuuki" left the Jujutsu High School and the world of Jujutsu, and never disappeared again. No one ever saw him again.
Xia Yujie's tone was flat throughout the whole process, and he was understating it. There was no unnecessary emotion when he was telling the story. It was extremely objective, and there was no ups and downs at all... Judging from the tone and emotion alone, he is not a qualified storyteller at all, and he made the story extremely boring.
But after listening to it, Yuji Itadori was stunned and shocked by the story for a moment. It took him a while to recover. He even almost couldn't remember what he had originally come to ask for a while.
"...Then why does it seem like no one knows him now?"
Yuji Itadori finally asked Geto Suguru, he still couldn't figure out this problem - after all, it sounded like "Yuuki Igarashi" had done such a serious thing, it should be recorded, and many people should know about it, right?
"Because the Directorate at that time did not allow any sorcerer to mention his name."
Teacher Gouyu said, his smile seemed to carry a hint of irony: "At that time, there were still many cowards left in the General Directorate. They saw that they could not find the guy, and the guy never showed up, so they tried to erase all the information about his identity and name, and did not allow anyone in the magic world to mention him again. So gradually, ten years passed, and not many people remembered him or what he had done... and no one mentioned his name anymore."
"Did they succeed?"
...But neither Mr. Getsuyu nor Mr. Gojo seemed to care much about this.
Knotweed Hisahito thought.
"It's halfway to success." Teacher Xia Yu said lightly.
Why "half"? Did they fail somewhere else? Yuji Itadori couldn't figure it out.
Later, when he met the school doctor, Ieichi Nozomi, again, and saw a strange expression on Miss Nozomi's face...at this time, Yuji Itadori finally figured it out.
He figured out what was making everyone wonder.
Although Teacher Gouyu said that the general directorate's order was half successful and no one remembers mentioning Igarashi Yuuki anymore, but... it seems that everyone in the Jujutsu High School has not forgotten her.
Everyone in the school seemed to be quietly and unanimously hiding this secret.
Only occasionally, people can inadvertently catch a glimpse of that past.
When Yuji Itadori boldly asked about "Igarashi Yuuki", Ms. Glass admitted frankly: "Ah, it's still hard to forget that Yuuki guy. You, Itadori, are a bit similar to him in some ways, but no one, including me or anyone else, will confuse you two, so you can rest assured."
"Of course I sometimes miss the past... But if I really want to talk about it, whether it's Wu or Jie, they are the ones who really care about you. They just pretend to be nice in front of you."
Without mercy or hesitation, Ieiri Shoko exposed the true identities of Gojo Satoru and Kagome Geto in front of Yuji Itadori.
...Is that so? But I can't see it normally.
Knotweed Hisahito was amazed.
But in fact, Miss Glass also cares about it... Yuji Itadori thought silently, when it snows, not only Mr. Gojo and Mr. Getsu, but also Miss Glass's mood will change.
I heard that Yuuki Igarashi seemed to have left on a snowy day.
Later, I don't know who got the news from, but before Yuji Itadori could react, the two Igarashi seniors took the initiative to come to him.
The names of the two Igarashi seniors are Nanako Igarashi and Mimiko Igarashi. Although they are twins, their hair color and hairstyle are completely different, so they are easy to distinguish.
The two of them are one year older than Itadori and his friends. They are very polite and seem to have a good relationship with Fushiguro Megumi. However, Itadori Yuji doesn't have much interaction with them, and he can't figure out why they came to him.
The twins came with a lot of momentum, but their attitude was actually pretty good. They also brought a black-haired, golden-eyed cat with them. Yuji Itadori remembered that it was teacher Nanami's cat. Her name was Nicole, and she was a girl.
Nico is the only normal cat in Jujutsu High School. She is said to be 13 years old, has a very cold personality, and is considered the school's favorite. Whether it is the psychological counseling room teachers Haibara, Nanami, Gojo, Gayu, Miss Glass, Principal Yemo, and even the two senior Igarashi sisters and Yuji's classmate Fushiguro Megumi, everyone likes Nico. Of course, Nico will only pay everyone to attention according to the situation.
Nanako Igarashi and Mimiko Igarashi were the first to speak frankly and told Itadori their purpose directly - they came to tell Itadori Yuji about "Yuuki Igarashi". Nico squatted quietly on Nanako's shoulder.
Yuji Itadori blinked a little late.
Then, after the twins explained, he realized that the two seniors were originally adopted by Igarashi Yuuki, so they both had the last name "Igarashi". However, after Igarashi Yuuki left, for the safety of the two of them, they reluctantly moved to the Gojo family, and Gojo Satoru became their temporary guardian.
So, in fact, the two of them were raised by Gojo Satoru, Geto Suguru, and Ieiri Nozomi.
From the mouths of the twins, Yuji Itadori got to know a brand new Yuki Igarashi - not a "defector" or "sinner" in the world of sorcery, but an extremely gentle, kind and tolerant "good person" who was different from other sorcerers.
As for the reason why the twins told him about Igarashi Yuuki, it was very simple - "We just don't want his image to be tarnished by some other weird and dirty things." They said so.
I don't want him to be forgotten any more, but I hope more people will remember him.
So Yuji Itadori really remembered the name "Yuuki Igarashi".
He slowly formed an image in his mind.
He saw photos of Igarashi Yuuki in many places—in Gojo Satoru's, in Getsu Yutaka's, in Ieiri Nozomi's, in Yaga Masamichi's, in the twins'...even in Fushiguro Megumi's, and in Haibara Yu and Nanami Kento's.
Everyone has seen different photos of Yuuki Igarashi.
In most of the photos, there is an image of a young man with black hair and green eyes, with an exceptionally bright smile and high spirits, as if he is not tainted by any gloom at all.
But Yuji Itadori feels that he still cannot see through "Yuuki Igarashi".
What kind of person was he that so many people still remember him today?
I heard that since he left Jujutsu High School ten years ago, the world of Jujutsu seems to have slowly started to get better... Even the famous "reform" of the top leaders of the Jujutsu world was initiated after he left. The rule that "the Jujutsu General Administration Department does not allow ordinary people or civilians to participate" was also changed after that. It seems that Teacher Takeyu and Teacher Nanami also joined the General Administration Department for this reason.
But after that, no one ever saw him again... neither him nor the special cursed spirit inside him.
But everyone believes that "he must not be dead yet."
I wonder if "Igarashi Yuuki" himself knows about this? It's about everyone's emotions and everyone's views on him. Yuji Itadori suddenly became a little curious. What would he think?
If... Yuji Itadori thought, it would be nice if he could have the chance to meet him in the future?
If we could meet him once, maybe... everyone would be happy, right?
