Chapter 172: Your appearance makes up for the high curse...
"Has he been scolded by the moth?" Geto Suguru guessed when he saw Gojo Satoru looking dejected.
Hmm...
The player felt a heavy weight on her back, and the other party seemed to rest their chin on her head. A weak and dull voice sounded from above.
Being so close, players can even feel the subtle vibrations from Gojo Satoru's chest.
"Ah...about that."
↑By the way, it was at this time that the player learned that during the Test of Courage, when she was about to secretly scare Geto Suguru, the cursed corpse under the white cloth was created by Masamichi Noctua.
No wonder it can move so freely.
——It has now been rigorously destroyed by elite students from the technical college.
"Looks like he got a good scolding from the moth," Xia Yujie chuckled, his eyes flickering with gloating. "He should learn this lesson."
He suppressed his smile, unable to bear the sight of his partner's laziness. "Don't do anything that would bother others. Aren't you feeling hot?"
"Huh? How can it be hot with air conditioning?" The player felt the weight of the Void Ring lighten considerably. The person behind him chuckled smugly at his thoughtfulness. "Besides, I was careful not to put my full weight on it."
"...This is different." Geto Suguru patiently persuaded.
"I always feel that... you have become strange recently,"
Gojo Satoru tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk in disdain, but still let go of his hand. The player immediately felt a cool sensation.
The cool air was completely blocked by the guy who was so big that he almost surrounded the player tightly!
Having succeeded in his persuasion and achieved his goal, Geto Suguru stopped talking, lowered his eyes, and stood there like a compassionate Buddha statue.
Gojo Satoru suddenly tilted his head, pushed up the frame of his sunglasses, and subconsciously took a step forward, asking inquiringly, "Jay, you're not..."
Just at this moment, a phone call called away Geto Suguru.
Having lost the purpose of interrogating, Gojo Satoru, who had been staring at the direction where Geto Suguru left, turned around and asked about the player's progress in a nonsensical manner.
"How's it going? Are you enjoying your time with Sukuna?"
The player said honestly: "He ignored me."
"Eh—you're so useless." Gojo Satoru mocked him rudely, then smiled and offered a few perfunctory words of comfort. "But improving your strength doesn't really matter. You can't surpass me and Jie anyway."
The player still expressed that he would continue to work hard.
Gojo Satoru rubbed his chin and offered advice, "Hmm~hmm! You're very motivated. Be patient with the elderly. Gojo-senpai believes in you!"
"Tsk." Ryoumen Sukuna sneered sarcastically.
oh!
This time it can be confirmed that it is not the player's auditory hallucination.
"Hmm? Did Sukuna communicate with you?" Noticing the player's inexplicable daze, Gojo Satoru waved his hand in front of her eyes, calling her back to her senses. "What did he say?"
After the player relayed the details, Gojo Satoru curled his lips indifferently, then solemnly placed his hand on the player's shoulder and instructed, "Forget what I said before. There's no need to be nice to an impolite old man like this."
"...Yes?" The player was confused by his casual attitude and was not sure which one to identify.
The call to Geto was also nearing its end. In the same classroom, I could hear him politely replying from time to time: "...I still have some stuff I don't know what to do with?"
"Just throw it away," he said, then reversed his decision. "No, please keep it for me. I'll get it back when I have time."
Xia Youjie hung up the phone. Two extra light-colored heads appeared in front of him, staring at him. He subconsciously took a half step back and asked helplessly, "What are you all doing around me?"
"It's from my old school. I found something with my name on it when I was sorting out old things," he said calmly, his eyes shifting. "...It's probably something from the past."
"Okay!" Gojo Satoru patted the player's shoulder and decided, "Let's go together!"
Geto Summer Oil: "Shouldn't you ask my opinion first on this kind of thing?"
"Eh, eh, is it inconvenient?" The player tapped his finger, his eyes wandering. "If Senior Gouyu feels embarrassed, forget it."
"...No, it's not to the point of being embarrassing." After a brief pause, he finally agreed.
The eyes behind the sunglasses moved slightly, falling on the two people respectively. He said "Hmm?" in surprise. The lenses blocked the strange color flashing in his eyes very well.
[Perception] popped up before the player's eyes. Following the direction, the player saw Gojo Satoru, who was standing straight and raised his lips. He had obviously noticed the player's gaze, and the curve of his lips widened as he excitedly announced, "Then let's go!"
The school that Geto Suguru used to attend is located in the city. By riding the Rainbow Dragon, the player can quickly see the whole picture of the school and enter it smoothly.
It was during the break and there were not many students in the classroom. After observing, Xia Yujie walked into the desk by the window in the corner.
"This is my old seat. It seems no one has used it."
Gojo Satoru bent down to look inside the desk, then his mood suddenly escalated: "Oh?"
He reached in, grabbed a handful, and placed it on the table. The player leaned in closer to decipher the words on the wrapper: "Chocolate?"
"It should have been received before." Geto Suguru seemed more interested in tidying up other books in the desk, and answered without raising his eyes.
Gojo Satoru crossed his arms over his chest and smacked his lips unhappily. "You're definitely showing off, Jay—you received so many chocolates and you're pretending not to care."
"I don't think this is anything worth bragging about," Geto Suguru thought thoughtfully. The player noticed that the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "Satoru, or are you jealous of my popularity among girls?"
Geto Suguru went to the principal's office to pick up the notes he had left behind. The player and Gojo Satoru were waiting for him in the classroom.
"Is this a love letter?" Gojo Satoru pinched a corner of the pink envelope, incredulous. "Why is Jay so popular?"
"It's actually quite normal?" the player said uncertainly. Gojo Satoru turned around and explained everything to him in detail, giving examples. "Gojo-senpai's personality and looks are both plus points that girls would like."
"What about me?"
After careful consideration, the player replied solemnly, "Your appearance gives you two extra points."
Gojo Satoru was satisfied.
He suddenly froze, raised his hand and lowered his sunglasses. "You said before that you wanted to develop a relationship in the technical college, right?"
Seeing the player nod, Gojo Satoru continued, "Well, has anyone chosen now?"
He kicked the desk aside, blocking the player's path, trapping them so they could only face him. The other side was still waving harmlessly, using a deceptive tone to try to get the player to continue: "Come on, talk about it~"
Hmm...
It looks like a lucky cat.
cute.
The player couldn't help but narrow his eyes at the association: "Satoru-senpai is an idiot."
Gojo Satoru blinked slowly: "..."
Player: Oo?
Gojo Satoru's reaction seemed to have crashed. He pushed his sunglasses back and stopped talking.
Eh! ?
"What's wrong?" When Geto Suguru came back, he noticed the strange atmosphere almost instantly and asked the two of them with his eyes.
"No." This is the calm player.
“…Nothing.” This was uncharacteristically Gojo Satoru.
Xia Yujie was suspicious. Gojo Satoru stood up, walked in front of him, pressed his hand on his shoulder, and said with all his strength: "Jie, you don't have to feel inferior because you lost to me."
"?"
Geto Suguru borrowed a cardboard box to store his old notes.
"Are these all you're taking?" The player noticed that he didn't touch anything in the desk.
Come to think of it, although this was the school I used to attend, until I left, I never heard Geto Suguru mention that there were any classmates or teachers he wanted to see.
"Don't be fooled by Jie's indifferent look. Based on my understanding of him, he must be secretly happy that a girl likes him!" Gojo Satoru moved closer to the players and whispered something that everyone could hear clearly.
His shoulders were pressed down, and the player looked at Geto Suguru with his eyes. Is that right?
No, it seems that he is just dissatisfied with the fact that his friend is much more popular with the opposite sex than he is, so he starts to slander the other person without any basis.
Geto Xia Yu responded indifferently: "Stop joking."
Gojo Satoru curled his lips, no longer pursuing the topic. He caught a glimpse of the chocolate in the player's hand. After a token inquiry, he tore it open and tossed it into his mouth, asking vaguely, "Where did you get it from?"
"..." The player pointed blankly in the direction of the classroom they left.
Based on Geto Suguru's current age, I can estimate when he will enter technical high school...Is it still edible if the chocolate is from such a long time ago?
The player watched as the corners of the young master's mouth, which had been inexplicably proud since a while ago, gradually lowered until it was almost flat: "..."
Gojo Satoru realized something and turned around expressionlessly and spat out the chocolate in his mouth.
"Remember this and don't snatch food from the hands of your juniors anymore." Geto Suguru, who had been watching the development of the situation with a smile, spoke slowly.
This guy is definitely not a good person! — The player thought so when he saw the smile on the other person's face.
"..." The player looked up in surprise and saw someone standing next to her.
Geto didn't look at the players. Instead, his gaze was fixed on Gojo Satoru, who was saying "Pfft, Pfft" with his back to them. As if chatting casually, he mentioned, "Did you talk about anything interesting while I was away? I hope I didn't miss anything."
The player's blank stare at him might have been interpreted as something else. He smiled and said, "Gon's reaction makes it hard to pretend I didn't notice anything."
That's true...
"Or..." He leaned forward slightly, his eyes shifting to the player's face. He didn't look directly at the player, which made people feel a subtle sense of pressure. He asked with a smile, his tone deliberately teasing to liven up the atmosphere, "Is it a secret that you can't tell me?"
Hey, so close!
Whether it was the inquiring gaze or the smile that faded from his lips due to the conversation, he no longer maintained a social distance. He lowered his eyelids and sighed, not seeming to be directed at anyone, "I have a secret in common with Wu."
The player held his breath unconsciously, his gaze glued to Geto Suguru's drooping eyes. This expression on his face made him seem a little... lonely?
Probably an illusion.
Judging from the current impression that Geto Suguru has given to players, he has a good compatibility with Gojo Satoru, and their confidence levels should be comparable.
"If you feel embarrassed, it's okay not to say it." He said considerately, his bangs covering his eyes. "It's just that sometimes..."
"What what?" The player poked his head out.
He smiled but didn't answer, changing the subject: "It seems that the matter with Wu has been resolved."
The player used Tu Meichan's sharp eyes: stare...
Xia Yujie's face showed no strange expression, and he asked with his eyes: "Hmm?"
Players compromise.
This man is so stupid.
