Ending (I)

When returning to the Pure Land again, Lu Shinobu was a little confused.

The place was endless and filled with thick fog. It was impossible to see the way forward or the way back.

The further you go, the more you feel trapped. You can't help but wonder if you'll never be able to get out.

I walked forward with doubts, and then I saw electric lights flowing all over the sky. The stars were like fireflies, falling vertically from high above, and exploding like fireworks when approaching the ground.

Soon, Lu Shinobi stood in a vast sea of ​​stars. The fog gradually dissipated, and an arched door appeared in front of him.

"You are surprisingly smart, Shika-nin." A mechanical voice sounded, "It's hard to imagine that a fool like 005 could bring out such an excellent host like you."

It was a familiar, yet inhuman mechanical sound. Lu Shinobi was not nervous or afraid. He looked up calmly: "Oh? Just take it as a compliment."

The voice came from high above, like a chuckle. Then a light appeared in the archway, flickering as if calling out.

〖I hope that 005 can learn a lesson from his years of exile. Lucky little guy, go and choose those unfinished worlds.〗

"I don't think I'm lucky." Shika-nin's words were calm, but also unquestionable. "These are the best choices I have planned and calculated. They are not the mercy of creatures like you who are made up of data."

The best evidence is that this mechanical voice can only make a few condescending remarks and cannot shake his choice.

The so-called final choice was probably the previous worlds. In those worlds, he was not dead, but was probably just missing in the eyes of others.

005 had suggested faking his death, but as he was prepared for a rainy day, he felt that he needed to stay.

Now it seems to be useful.

The mechanical voice's suggestion was probably to let him choose a world where he could live his life like an ordinary person and then die.

Because this is the best option. Being unable to die like now will only cause trouble to those systems.

Lu Shinobi raised his eyebrows and began to think about what choice he should make.

The mechanical voice was still mysterious, but no one was paying attention. The figure in front of the door raised his hand, and then stepped into the void without hesitation.

After the sudden brightness, the world seemed to fall into darkness, followed by a suffocating feeling and a thick malice that seemed to swallow people up.

Zenin Kei controlled her body to float up, and although it was not smooth at the beginning, she finally successfully exposed herself to the sunlight.

He gasped for breath like a drowning man, and finally coughed twice before he had the mind to tidy up his clothes.

It was still the school uniform of Jujutsu High School. Lu Ninja lowered his eyes and let out a long breath because of this rare feeling of relaxation and comfort.

He is no longer the person who cannot be killed and exists only to complete the mission. Now he is Zenin Kei, and he can also meet the end of death in this familiar world.

There were many people walking on the street, and no one noticed the man's peculiarity. If someone was willing to take a second look at him, it was probably because he looked handsome.

There was a cell phone and a little money in my pocket, but the cell phone seemed to have not been turned on for a while, so it was out of battery.

Zenin Hui was not in a hurry. He walked leisurely on the street until he met the first familiar face.

The woman with shoulder-length hair was carrying large and small bags and was arguing with a roadside shop owner. Later, when their eyes met, her expression became shocked.

"You, you you!" Kugizaki No Rose looked surprised and pointed at the calm man with her eyes wide open, "You bastard."

She called out subconsciously, but before she could call out the name of the person in front of her, the person had already crossed the crowd and stood in front of her and called out, "Long time no see, Nagizaki."

Zenin Kei didn't know how long she had been "missing", but from the surprised expression of Kugizaki Norose, she could guess that it had been quite some time.

After recovering, Nagizaki Norose took out her phone and grabbed Zenin Hui's clothes: "You are not dead, wait, don't run."

He had no intention of running away, but when he saw the vivid expression of surprise on Kugizaki No Rose's face after she got through the call, Zenin Hui felt a sense of security.

The call was made to Yuji Itadori. It only took a few seconds to confirm the location before the call was hung up.

But the first person to arrive was not Itadori, but Gojo Satoru with his family.

The two of them looked at the familiar figure being held down by Kugizaki Norose and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Ieiri Naoko bit her lollipop and breathed a sigh of relief: "Teacher, you are really good at hiding."

Not only the Zenin family, but also the Gojo family and several other large families, searched openly and secretly, but could not find out where that person had gone.

If someone is alive, they won't leave without saying goodbye. If someone is dead, their body won't be nowhere to be found. For a long time, this has been a mystery that has troubled many people.

"Really? I've been missing for over a year." Zenin Hui's expression was also surprised. "So that's how it is. Has anything happened recently?"

Gojo Satoru's expression was serious. He no longer had the casual smile he had in my memory. "What did you say to Jay?"

Speaking of Kagome Kyo, Zenin Kei was also surprised that he was not present. In the past, the two of them were together almost all the time, and they talked about defeating him and becoming the new strongest.

Judging from the strange expressions on the faces of several people, it seems that something has happened.

Inexplicably, Zenin Kei thought of that possibility, and there was something wrong in his tone: "Getsuyu...did he defect?"

"Hey, hey! It's not that serious." Nagizaki No Rose said unexpectedly, "Are you really their teacher? Why don't you hope for something good?"

After breathing a sigh of relief, Zenin Hui realized that everything was not yet irreversible.

Although Kugizaki denied that statement, from Gojo Satoru's furrowed brows and increasingly serious expression, it can be seen that Geto Suguru is indeed approaching that possibility.

Yuji Itadori, who came in a hurry, wiped his forehead, and when he met those green eyes, he felt as if he had been relieved: "Megumi..."

"Yeah." Zenin Hui nodded slightly, then showed a rather troubled expression, "Maki."

Following behind Yuji was none other than Zenin Maki. She frowned and looked as if her resentment was about to materialize.

"Ha! You're still alive? I thought I was going to collect your body!" Zenin Maki snorted coldly, "Leaving behind a pile of rotten stalls and running away, is this what you have learned after all these years as the head of the family?"

After Zenin Maki spoke, no one dared to speak up. In the past year as the head of the family, Zenin Maki has proved to everyone that she has this ability.

After returning to the college, everything was still the same as usual. Although it was obvious that no one had lived in the room for a long time, it was still clean and tidy.

Gojo Satoru returned to his heartless self, but on the second day after returning to the technical high school, Zenin Kei still did not see Geto Suguru.

"He's temporarily suspended from school." Tenuchi Riko said, "Didn't Gojo Satoru tell you that Geto Suguru wasn't in school?"

After showing a look of understanding, Zen Yuan Huizhi said something and left the college.

He made a familiar hand gesture and looked at the jade dog jumping out from the shadow, feeling quite intimate.

The jade dog wagged its tail, in a very happy mood. It snuggled up to its owner and made some humming sounds.

Zenin Hui went there according to the address, and with the help of Yuquan, found Xia Youjie in casual clothes in an abandoned and dilapidated basketball court.

Xia Yujie was not surprised to see the visitor, but he also greeted him: "Long time no see, Zen teacher."

"Um."

The two of them sat on a bench, and the sun was about to set in the distance.

"Why did the teacher disappear, and why did he give up the position of the head of the family?" Xia Yujie asked expressionlessly, "Or, for a strong man like the teacher, these things that others can never have in their lifetime are not important at all."

"Gojo Satoru is now the head of the Gojo family." Zenin Hui answered irrelevantly, "So even though he is usually heartless, he is quite reliable when it comes to family matters."

"This position is not just a title."

Xia Yujie began to think, and then began to ask: "Then do you think that sorcerers are the same as ordinary people? They can't understand us at all."

Because he possesses cursed power and can see cursed spirits, he is regarded as a "freak" and the cause of disasters.

However, the sorcerer has to protect ordinary people as a prerequisite, even though those people have no idea of ​​the sorcerer's efforts.

“I don’t know if it was the right decision for the teacher to entrust the important task to me.”

Although a year had passed, the man in front of him was still a teenager at best. His confused look and eyes expressed his confusion.

Zenin Hui did not answer the question directly, but simply said: "Have you ever seen a person with stitches on his head?"

Xia Yujie showed a surprised expression, but the person in front of him looked into the distance and said absentmindedly: "Aren't you curious about where I went during the year I disappeared? I went to another world, and that world is very different from this world."

As he continued to talk, the black-haired boy's expression changed from confusion at first to shock and sudden enlightenment later.

The setting sun stretched their shadows infinitely, and the two walked side by side on the road. The older one cleared his throat and raised his hand to rub his chin.

Another one complained helplessly: "Teacher, how long have you not spoken?"

He talked too much, and his voice became a little hoarse. Zenin Kei was a little helpless, after all, he had no talent for telling stories.

But fortunately, at least it has a healing effect.

After drinking some water to moisten his throat, Zenin Kei noticed the hint from Kagome Kyo's eyes. He looked in the direction and saw the couple parked not far away.

The two men were still carrying some daily necessities in their hands, and seemed to be taking a walk after dinner as usual. But after their eyes met, the lady with short black hair involuntarily took two steps forward.

"Gojo-kun?"

Facing the strange gaze of Xia Yujie, Zenin Hui coughed and said, "Hello, Mrs. Zenin, maybe you can call me by my new name."

Mrs. Zen was a little surprised, and Zen behind her raised her eyebrows in understanding.

It takes countless lies to cover up one lie. Zenyuan Hui felt his face getting hot, but he still pretended to be calm and said, "Zenyuan, Zenyuan Hui."

His voice was very soft, but no one asked him to repeat it. The woman, who originally had a faint smile on her face, had tears in her eyes, and then she covered her face and cried quietly.

Chanyuan even held his wife in his arms, patted her back gently and whispered words of comfort.

Zenin Kei scratched his cheek, looking a little overwhelmed, but Kaguru Kei beside him accepted it well: "Hello, I'm Kaguru Kei, a student of Zenin Kei."

There is no mother who would fail to recognize her child, let alone a mother who has missed her child for more than 20 years. Mrs. Zenyuan hugged Zenyuan Hui tightly, calling out over and over again: "Hui, Hui..."

It was a call that came more than 20 years late, but the cry that I had been talking to myself in previous years finally received a response today.

"I'm here."
