The black-haired man paused in locking the window.

But he quickly resumed his previous actions smoothly and locked the window without saying a word.

After doing this series of things, he turned around to look at Gojo Satoru. Under the moonlight, his expression seemed a little distant.

"What do you want to ask?", Xia Yujie looked into Gojo Satoru's eyes.

In those beautiful and unique six eyes, there is infinite power hidden.

This was also the beginning of the gap between him and Gojo Satoru.

Gojo Satoru is the strongest.

But he is not.

If someone really asked him why he became estranged from Gojo Satoru, Geto Suguru would just say that he had never become estranged from Gojo Satoru.

Or rather, he had never thought about it.

But things don't always go as planned. He never thought that when the gap between him and Gojo Satoru was getting bigger and bigger, when no matter how hard he tried, he could not be on par with Gojo Satoru.

He only discovered sadly that, although he had never thought about it, the fact was that he and Gojo Satoru were indeed drifting further and further apart.

He is not the strongest.

Both in terms of technique and in spirit.

, Xia Yujie was deeply touched by that bitter summer.

But Gojo Satoru was different. He probably didn't feel the pain of that summer, so naturally... he couldn't understand him.

It wasn't his fault, but Geto couldn't accept it.

What he couldn't accept was the growing gap between him and Gojo Satoru, and what he couldn't accept was standing behind and watching his friend walk further and further away.

This is a bitter summer.

…a bitter summer that belonged to him alone.

During the period after his defection, he seemed to have found the true meaning of life, a way to make up for the gap between himself and his friends, and his own righteousness.

He had imagined countless times the scene of Gojo Satoru asking him why he betrayed him, but he had never imagined it would be like this.

——During this period of time, their relationship seemed to be recovering, as if it was a joke.

Neither he nor Gojo Satoru mentioned that incident, as if they had tacitly buried it.

But Xia Yujie knew clearly that what they buried was a time bomb, a bomb that would explode at any time.

The remote control of this bomb is in the hands of Gojo Satoru.

"Okay, let me ask it another way."

Seeing that Geto was suddenly in a depressed mood, Gojo Satoru blinked and started again:

"Did you really defect for personal reasons?"

?

Xia Yujie was quick to notice the problem with this sentence, so he paused his recollection and asked, "What did you find out?"

Currently, there is only one thing that he and Gojo Satoru are investigating together, and that is the thousand-year-old curser Noose.

Could this person be related to my original defection?

But to be honest, Xia Yujie felt that his original defection was entirely due to his own reasons.

The star plasma had dealt him a heavy blow, causing him to waver in his belief in what he had always insisted on. He remembered that he was in a trance for a long time after that incident.

Later, I met all kinds of people while on missions, and experienced the evil of people in various ways.

The ultimate trigger for his defection was that the people in that village, out of their ignorance, almost killed two young children.

After seeing that scene, he was furious, and out of anger he slaughtered the entire village, adopted two little girls, and then officially defected.

If Geto Suguru had to say something, he would say that he had no regrets.

"It seems that the two children adopted by Jie were not originally from that village." Gojo Satoru took out his cell phone and placed it in front of him.
