Chapter 74
The assistant supervisor on the other end of the phone cried for three minutes before calming down and listening to Ye Mo Zheng Dao's explanation. Although this explanation was made up on the spur of the moment, it was not completely false.
"Calm down, this is what happened," Yeying Zhengdao pressed his forehead, his face gloomy, but he tried to speak gently, "I was interrupted by the attack of the cursed spirit while I was putting up the [tent], and I really didn't have time to make up the [tent] in the middle."
The assistant supervisor’s emotions after calming down were a little broken: “So that’s how it is… Nocturnal Moth Master, wuwuwu, so it’s all my fault. If I hadn’t had an accident on the way…”
"No, no, no," Ye Mo Zheng Dao said quickly, patiently explaining to him, "I refused to send another assistant supervisor. The problem is definitely not with you."
While saying this, Ye Mo Zhengdao glared fiercely at the two little bastards in front of him. It was all their fault.
However, the two culprits had no self-awareness at all and were still whispering. This time they really knew to lower their voices. Although Ye Mo Zhengdao could still barely hear them clearly, the auxiliary supervisor on the other end of the phone definitely could not hear them.
Xia Yujie covered his mouth and whispered to Gojo Satoru: "The guy on the other side is also a sorcerer, right? Why does he seem a little... mentally fragile?"
Geto Suguru tried his best to be tactful, but Gojo Satoru had no concept of tactfulness.
Although Gojo Satoru spoke in a low voice, his tone was carefree: "That's because he's too weak. The auxiliary supervisors are all very weak. They can only put up a [tent]. They basically have no combat capability. They may be only slightly stronger than an ordinary person like you."
Xia Youjie nodded thoughtfully: "Oh, I understand...but why do we need a weakling to help us fight?"
Gojo Satoru snorted disdainfully: "Although I don't know much, I feel that they should be regarded as spies of the upper echelons, to restrain the behavior of real sorcerers. Look at Uncle Ye Moth's attitude now, isn't it obvious?"
Ye Mo Zheng Dao heard this, gnashed his back teeth, and roared in his heart, who is the reason for his current situation! Moreover, it is normal for a worker like him to have a big work pressure and occasionally collapse. This little brat does not understand the hardships of adults at all.
Yaga Masamichi raised his fist towards Gojo Satoru, but Gojo Satoru looked at him warily. There was no need to think too much, this little bastard must have used his unlimited technique again.
Ye Mo raised his fist only to warn Gojo Satoru to restrain himself, but his threat was completely useless to Gojo Satoru. The stubborn and angry cat looked at him fiercely, with a look that seemed to say "Come and fight me if you don't agree."
The only one who can control Gojo Satoru now is probably Geto Suguru. Oh, and there is also a Baichuan Mu.
Xia Youjie smiled and shook his head gently, saying helplessly: "Satoru, you are not very tired now, don't activate the unlimited technique, Ye Mo teacher has no intention of fighting with you... to spar with you."
Gojo Satoru snorted, canceled the unlimited technique, put his hands in his pockets and said, "Okay."
The corner of Yega Zhengdao's mouth twitched. He wanted to learn from Xia Yujie how to discipline Gojo Satoru, but if he thought about it carefully, this black-bellied fox was not easy to discipline.
"Nocturnal moth magician? Night moth magician... Night moth magician, are you still there?" The assistant supervisor called out several times in a row, his voice a little low, "You are not injured, right? I should have asked about your condition first, and shouldn't have pursued the [account] matter first. I'm sorry... Are you okay? Are you unconscious? I will call immediately..."
"I'm fine, I'm not injured, I don't need any help." Ye Mo Zhengdao said. He touched the back of his head, which was still swollen and painful, but this little pain was nothing to him. "I'll trouble you to clean up for me... I'm really sorry for not letting you go. I won't do that next time, I will. That's it. I'm going to hang up now."
"Ye..." Ye Mo Zheng Dao hung up the phone before the assistant supervisor on the other end could finish his words.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Mo Zhengdao felt a little relieved, but he guessed that he would get scolded when he got home... It gave him a headache just thinking about it. He felt so upset to have to bear this blame.
Gojo Satoru snapped his fingers. "Is there no problem now? Come on, Jay, shall we go get some crepes?"
Xia Yujie nodded and invited Ye Mo Zhengdao: "Teacher Ye Mo, would you like to join us?"
Ye Mo Zheng Dao's expression was still solemn. He said, "Have you seen other people? Two people are missing in the temple."
Only then did Xia Youjie remember that the information he had read before said that two people were missing. He was so focused on subduing the cursed spirit that he actually forgot about this matter.
Xia Youjie lowered his eyes slightly and said with some guilt: "I'm sorry, Mr. Ye Moth, I didn't notice this before."
He also wanted to release a few of the cursed spirits he had tamed to help find the two missing people.
Gojo Satoru shrugged. "Teacher Yemo, this is a quasi-first-level cursed spirit, not some third- or fourth-level bastard. We have already found out about the missing persons online. The survival rate of those two people is very low... Moreover, I have seen their remains with my six eyes."
When Xia Youjie heard this, his heart sank and he looked a little depressed.
Ye Mo Zhengdao was not very surprised. After all, the data showed that the two people had been missing for thirty-one hours, more than a day, and the survival rate was indeed not high.
This cursed spirit was quite good at camouflage and was discovered by Window a little later.
Ye Mo Zheng Dao mourned for the two men in his heart, but he did not forget to correct Gojo Satoru's statement: "Level 3 and 4 cursed spirits cannot be considered as scum. Gojo family's little ghost, it would be very dangerous to underestimate the enemy."
"To me, the strongest, they are just trash," Gojo Satoru snorted disdainfully, "I could beat a level 2 cursed spirit when I was six!"
"Then why couldn't you snatch the phone from me?" Ye Mo Zheng Dao asked back, "You are the brat from the Gojo family who claims to be the strongest."
Gojo Satoru frowned and said unconvincedly, "That's because I just went through a battle and I'm a little tired. Uncle Ye Moth, do you dare to wait until I'm in my prime to compete with me?"
Ye Moth frowned and said, "I'm busy."
Gojo Satoru said dissatisfiedly: "You don't dare?!"
Yega Masamichi didn't care about Gojo Satoru's provocation at all: "I'm not interested in playing with the little devil. Do you think sorcerers are leisurely? If you are willing to respectfully address me as a teacher, I can still consider it."
“No way! Uncle Yemo!” Gojo Satoru stuck out his tongue. “Become my teacher and wait a few years before we talk!”
Yaga Masamichi was almost used to Gojo Satoru's arrogant personality, but he noticed that Geto Suguru had been silent from the beginning, so he asked, "Come to think of it, I haven't asked you two your names yet, why don't you introduce yourselves? As for me, you already know, my name is Yaga Masamichi."
Gojo Satoru said: "Don't you recognize me? I am Gojo Satoru!"
Yega Masamichi recognized the boy from the Gojo family, and through their conversation he knew his name was Gojo Satoru. As for the other child, he only knew his name was "Jie". However, if the woman outside was his mother, then was this black-bellied fox called "Baichuan Jie"?
However, after Geto Suguru spoke, he overturned Yaga Masamichi's guess.
Xia Youjie said: "My name is Xia Youjie."
Ye Mo Zhengdao was a little surprised. Don’t they have the same surname?
However, there was a hint of surprise on Yega Masamichi's face, which caused Xia Yujie to misunderstand.
Xia Yujie thought, as expected, the surname "Xia Yu" is not simple, my father... what kind of secret is hidden behind this? No matter what, it must be related to those rotten oranges in the upper echelons of the magic world.
Ye Moth Zhengdao asked doubtfully: "Then what's outside..."
Geto Xiayou replied: "It's my mother and my classmate. She is also a sorcerer, but she is not good at fighting."
Yaga Masamichi nodded thoughtfully, and there was also a strange misunderstanding. The second half of Geto Suguru's sentence referred to Ieiri Shoko, but Yaga Masamichi thought it was talking about Baichuan Mu.
He thought to himself, indeed, it was a little too unbelievable for someone who possessed the art of predicting the future to be also good at fighting. She might even be more difficult to deal with than the Godchild of the Gojo family. However, we cannot underestimate her now.
The strange misunderstandings between the two sides increased, and they all revolved around Bai Chuanmu's thoughts. Now I'm afraid that even if she had a hundred mouths, she wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.
Ye Mo Zheng Dao returned to the truth and said to Xia Youjie: "Xia You, didn't I just tell you? There is no such thing as a death without regret for a sorcerer. You must always remember this."
Xia Youjie blinked and asked, "Are the two missing people sorcerers?"
Ye Moth Zheng Dao denied: "No."
Xia Youjie hesitated and said, "In that case..."
Yega Zhengdao said earnestly: "Spellcasters are always accompanied by death."
Xia Yujie was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyes and whispered: "I understand what you mean, Mr. Ye Moth, that's why I want to become the strongest. Only by becoming the strongest can I be able to protect more people."
Ye Mo Zhengdao glanced at Gojo Satoru and had the illusion that this kid was leading Geto Suguru astray. How could he keep saying "the strongest" at such a young age? Although having a lofty goal is good, it can also be very tiring.
"What are you looking at me for, Uncle Nightgae? Is there anything wrong with Jie and I both wanting to be the strongest? We have the ability!" Gojo Satoru said confidently, but Yega Masamichi's words also made him notice that Geto Suguru seemed a little depressed. He patted Geto Suguru and said, "I didn't expect you to be so fragile. It reminds me of the assistant supervisor who just called Uncle Nightgae."
Xia Youjie retorted: "I'm not, I just care a little bit. After all, if we had come earlier, maybe they wouldn't have to die."
"What? Are you dissatisfied with your mother for not finding information for you fast enough, or because you have to go to school in the next few days?"
"No……"
"Alright!" Gojo Satoru didn't wait for Geto to retort, he took out a leftover candy from his pocket and stuffed it into Geto's hand, "Don't think too much, you'll become an idiot if you think too much, learn from me, okay? I want to be the strongest, just for myself, I exorcise the cursed spirit just because I want to, and helping or saving others is just a side job~"
Xia Yujie looked at the candy in his hand and listened to Gojo Satoru's carefree speech. Suddenly, he felt as if his mind had suddenly become clear. The inexplicable depression just now disappeared. He stared at the candy in a daze for a long time, then chuckled: "It seems that this is the first time that you have given me snacks."
Gojo Satoru's eyes widened. "How is it possible?! Am I that kind of person?"
"Then tell me, what snacks have you given me?"
"Cursed spirit."
"…Cursed spirits don't count."
"Grape."
“…Grapes don’t count either.”
"Didn't I give your grandfather a bunch of lemon trees? Are they delicious?"
"Ha!" Xia Youjie narrowed his eyes, smiled at Gojo Satoru and said through gritted teeth, "Speaking of this, I haven't settled the score with you yet!"
Gojo Satoru rolled up his sleeves and said, "Come on, let's spar. Do you think I'll be a wimp?"
Ye Moth Zhengdao held the two cubs' heads to prevent them from fighting each other: "Okay, I know you have a good relationship and are friends, but we still need to clean up the mess, so don't make things worse."
They both said, “We are not friends!”
Ye Moth Zheng Dao was puzzled: "Hmm? But..."
Xia Youjie and Gojo Satoru laughed and said in unison: "We are close friends--!"
