Chapter 170 The Bad Boy in a High Curse
"Grandpa Takeuchi?" Players will unexpectedly see each other outside.
especially……
She glanced to the left and right of Geto Suguru.
It was rare that Gojo Satoru, who was usually inseparable from him, was not seen by his side.
The player withdrew his searching gaze and asked curiously, "Is Senior Wu not here?"
An incomprehensible and complex expression flashed across Geto's face for a moment, his brows unconsciously furrowed, then relaxed, and the usual curve of his lips faded a bit, but it couldn't be said that he was angry - most of the time he didn't have any expression other than gentle, so the subtle change at this moment was very obvious.
Ugh!
What's this guilty feeling about choosing the wrong dialogue in the favorability plot? The player fell back speechlessly.
Geto was still the caring and reliable senior. The surprise on his face faded away. "No, I came to see you alone."
The 'alone' in his words means 'away from others'.
Maybe it's an illusion...
After listening to Geto Suguru's explanation of his purpose, the player thought silently.
"Wu is planning to hold a courage test at the Polytechnic High School. There are some things I wouldn't want him to know in advance."
The player blinked in understanding, "Earlier, Senior Wu came to inform me about joining."
A test of courage competition is a common game to cool off in the summer.
Players believe that it would be difficult to achieve the desired effect if several sorcerers who deal with beings like cursed spirits every day gathered together to hold a test of courage.
Gojo Satoru clearly wasn't paying attention. If it weren't for his sunglasses, you'd probably see him making malicious faces. "Of course, the Test of Courage is boring, but opportunities to pull pranks don't come around often."
He leaned over to the player's ear and whispered something.
"That's terrible." The player commented from the heart after hearing Gojo Satoru's thoughts.
"Hmm~" Gojo Satoru didn't care about the slightly harsh words at all, and just asked, "What's your answer?"
"Okay."
The player who had recently accepted Gojo Satoru's invitation watched as Geto paused for a moment after hearing her response. Then, with a smile that seemed both relieved and concealed, he murmured, "Sometimes, Satoru isn't as slow as he appears."
"...Even if I don't realize it myself, I'm pretty decisive."
Look!
The players swear by it.
The relationship between the two is as good as ever.
Then the reason why Geto Suguru specifically sought her out alone could only be because of something else, so the player simply asked.
Geto Xia Yu hummed, "It's indeed a topic that needs to be avoided from other people's discussion."
"Just you and me."
The player saw Geto Suguru wink suggestively at her, and his gentle demeanor faded, becoming more cunning. "How about giving them a little scare at the courage contest?"
The 'they' mentioned obviously refers to more than just one person, and Geto Suguru leaves the decision to the players.
"Nanaha, Haibara..."
Staring elsewhere, he casually suggested, "Or... what about Wu?"
Noticing the player's gaze shifting towards him, Geto Suguru, as if already knowing the answer, arched his eyes in a friendly manner and continued, as expected, smoothly: "Satoru's eyes are very sharp, and it won't be easy to trick him, so let's plan a harmless joke that we can pull off without him knowing."
Sorry, the players were not listening carefully to what Geto Suguru was saying later.
The only thought in my mind is:
'Fox sculptures are so civilized!'
"What do you need me to do?" The player raised his hand excitedly.
Xia Youjie did not immediately reveal his intention. Instead, he stared at the player for a long time. After a while, he said in a subtle and ambiguous tone: "So Wu has always felt this way..."
What?
Before the players could ask further questions, Geto Suguru returned to his normal attitude and took the initiative to talk about his plan.
Gojo Satoru's 'Six Eyes' makes him very sensitive to the existence of cursed energy, but it is not easy for any sorcerer to approach him without being discovered.
Geto Suguru's eyes fell on the player's face. "Although ordinary people also have cursed energy, I will release some low-level fly heads to interfere with Satoru's senses during the test of courage."
"At that time, if Fushimi disguises himself as a ghost and scares Wu, it will definitely have an unexpected effect," he said.
It sounds feasible and indeed falls within the realm of harmless joke.
Players expressed doubts about whether Gojo Satoru would be scared by the disguised ghost.
but,
...What a surprise.
The player looked at Geto Suguru, who tolerantly let her look at him.
I thought it would be a little worse.
Even seems a little... harmless?
As a close friend of Gojo Satoru (emphasized), his method of playing pranks on people is surprisingly simple.
"So, is it a deal?" He turned his head slightly to confirm with the player.
There was no detailed discussion on how to implement it, and the attitude was that it didn't matter if the players messed up... they didn't care at all!
I feel looked down upon.
Well... I'd better do something in the courage test that will open the eyes of Geto Suguru.
As night fell, the test of courage was held as scheduled at the Polytechnic College.
The location is set in the classroom office - according to Gojo Satoru, they have been scolded by Yaga Masamichi many times, which can amplify the sense of fear.
In order to create a gloomy atmosphere, no lights were turned on in the room, and everyone held a candle for lighting.
"I also brought this." The player took out Ryoumen Sukuna's finger and received generous praise from Gojo Satoru, "Very good!"
Huiyuan Xiong scratched his face: "But Sukuna is sealed now... No matter how terrifying he was in life, he doesn't seem scary anymore, right?"
Nanami Kento: "No, just carrying a finger is creepy enough in itself."
The wide-open window was rustled by the wind, making a heart-pounding sound in the quiet night, and the candlelight suddenly flickered.
Faintly feeling the creeping atmosphere of terror, no one took the initiative to speak for a moment.
As a traditional game, there is almost no one present who needs to have the rules explained.
They need to take turns telling ghost stories, then blow out the candles in their hands, and finally form teams to go to the training ground to retrieve the tokens prepared in advance. Screaming in the middle will be considered a failure.
After observing everyone's expressions, Gojo Satoru announced, "Then the Test of Courage officially begins!"
He took the lead and told a story about a protagonist who was imprisoned and killed by his secret admirer, who turned into a ghost to seek revenge.
To be honest...it was terrible.
The player looked at it sharply: Isn’t this the plot in GalGame?
I just slightly modified the ending of the story to make it more like a ghost story.
The two players who were not present at the time did not notice this and simply thought that Gojo Satoru's narrative ability was very poor, and Haibara Yu even applauded.
When 'Applause' and 'Test of Courage' appear together, it is enough to prove Gojo Satoru's failure in storytelling.
"In that case, I'll be next!" Huiyuan Xiong volunteered, "I want to tell you a ghost story that happened around me."
He began to talk to himself, "That's a story that happened to my sister. She became very restless for a while, afraid of being alone, and always heard strange noises. Everyone in the family thought she was suffering from paranoia..."
The cold wind climbed up their backs unscrupulously through the open windows, causing their hair to stand on end.
"Then..." He paused, then smiled brightly, "I discovered it was a cursed spirit. After exorcising it, I enrolled in a technical high school!"
"..." Gojo Satoru held up a sign, "Zero points."
Geto Suguru's smile remained unchanged: "Are there any other stories besides your life experiences?"
"Speaking of horror stories..." Nanami Kento, who had been silent, thinking he would remain silent forever, began, "I heard a rumor a while ago that an employee jumped from the rooftop after working overtime and having his salary cut for no reason. Some say he turned into a ghost and took revenge on the president who insulted him. Some say the company has become spooky ever since."
"Then what?"
Nanami Kento blew out the candles: "His resentment gave birth to a cursed spirit, and the president spent money to exorcise it."
Gojo Satoru turned his head away silently: "How could a realistic ghost story appear here?!"
Although it was not what was expected, everyone did feel a chill.
Then two people will go out in groups to retrieve the token placed on the training ground. The party responsible for scaring people on the way can do whatever they want to do, like using ghosts to scare people.
Since Ieiri Shoko did not participate, one of the five people was bound to be left alone. Geto Suguru took the initiative to suggest that he stay in the office. Gojo Satoru immediately agreed and took the players to tiptoe around Nanami Kento and Haibara Yu.
There are low-level cursed spirits released by Geto Suguru wandering outside. If you catch a glimpse of them inadvertently, it will definitely scare people.
Gojo Satoru gestured to the player, indicating that he should go first, then he put on a mask and rushed towards the two of them.
But the effect seems to be poor.
"How could you possibly be frightened even though you knew you'd be scared?" Nanami Kento said calmly, pointing at Gojo Satoru's hair. "Besides, white hair is so noticeable at night, it's hard not to notice it."
"Eh - I should have worn a mask earlier." Gojo Satoru said disappointedly, and waved to the players in the distance, indicating that the battle had failed.
Haibara Yu even blinked in the direction of the player.
Nanami Haibara succeeded, and Gojo Satoru couldn't wait to be the one being scared.
At this time, Xia Yujie stated: "I will go with you."
"Yeah!"
Looking at Gojo Satoru who showed no dissatisfaction at all about his partner being replaced by him from a player, Geto Suguru lowered his eyes and calmly followed Gojo Satoru's steps.
When I went outside, the sudden drop in temperature seeped through the fabric, and I felt an inexplicable chill.
Gojo Satoru walked at a moderate pace, ignoring the strange-looking cursed spirits around him. His leisurely posture was as if he was taking a walk in the daytime, and he would talk to Geto Suguru from time to time, chatting about random things.
Geto Suguru replied absentmindedly, calculating the distance in his mind. Now was the time for the player wrapped in the bed sheet to jump out.
He slowed down his pace until he had distanced himself from Gojo Satoru.
Gojo Satoru was walking unawares, when suddenly a white shadow approached him quickly.
He reacted immediately and raised his index finger.
"No, Satoru!" Seeing Gojo Satoru's gesture, Geto Suguru's blood froze instantly, and he shouted to stop him, "That's not..." the enemy
"Cao." Gojo Satoru uttered short syllables with an expressionless face.
The terrifying cursed energy quickly formed a complete sphere and shot towards the white shadow.
boom……
Xia Yujie's raised hand froze there, unable to move: "..."
"Gatsuyu-senpai..." A calm, quiet voice came from behind him, and a hand was placed on his shoulder. Having encountered too many situations that he couldn't handle in a short period of time, Xia Yujie turned his head slowly. He saw a familiar face and blinked at him, "Are you scared?"
"..." The player felt his subordinate's body stiffen for a few seconds, and then suddenly relax.
Seeing the smug expression on Gojo Satoru's face, Geto Suguru immediately understood.
The player smiled and pointed behind him: "Because Senior Wu invited me first!"
"So that's how it is." Xia Yujie said in a complicated tone, but he didn't seem angry at all. "No wonder..."
Geto Suguru sighed and raised his hand towards the players nearby.
The players watched his movements closely.
Hmm? Are you going to teach the players a lesson now?
He always appeared to have a good temper.
The player was full of curiosity and did not choose to avoid the opponent's slow movements.
Geto Suguru did not do what the player guessed above, but just tapped the player's forehead with his fingertips.
A gesture that was not forceful but carried a sense of intimacy.
The player tilted his head blankly.
——In short, this is an intimate act that Geto Suguru would never do to his juniors under normal circumstances.
There was condemnation in his tone, but also some helplessness.
“…bad boy.”
