Chapter 42 Chapter 42 (Inverted V)



[It’s 3:30 in the afternoon, the sun is shining brightly, and the streets of Tokyo are bustling with people.

And on the sidewalk, a black-haired boy and a white-haired boy were walking side by side.

For some unknown reason, the black-haired boy walked on the side of the road closer to the car, subtly protecting the white-haired boy on the inside.

He was even a little too vigilant, being extremely alert to any passing vehicles and pedestrians.

The white-haired boy seemed to be used to it and did not show any strange expression towards Geto Suguru's actions.

He looked around and said to Geto in a coquettish tone, "Geto, I really want to eat Kikufuku!"

The black-haired boy tilted his head towards him and said, "But there's no Kikufuku store nearby, right?"

"Yes--Oh!" Gojo Satoru continued to drag his voice to refute him, raised his hand and pointed at the store in front, smiling a little proudly, "Jie, go quickly."

Xia Yujie couldn't help but roll his eyes and complained, "Really, if you keep eating like this, you'll get fat to death sooner or later."

Although he said this, he still walked forward and entered the store.

"No way, I'm the strongest!" The white-haired boy retorted with a smile.

"whispering sound."

The camera moves along with Geto's movements, and Gojo Satoru quickly disappears from the camera. 】

At this point, the people watching the movie in the basement had completely lost the initial joy of seeing someone they thought they would never see again.

Yuji Itadori stared closely at Geto Suguru who was choosing desserts, as if he wanted to see through the boy on the screen with his eyes.

No, don't, don't...

Megumi Fushiguro pursed her lips and tightened her face, with an expressionless face but a hint of worry.

Based on what was played previously...

"...Don't go in." Naiqi No Rose couldn't help but whispered to stop him.

[Of course, the sound outside the screen cannot be transmitted into the screen, not to mention that the content played on the screen is in the past.

Geto Summer selected several desserts, and Gojo Satoru, who could barely be considered one of the parties involved, saw clearly that those desserts were all the types he liked very much when he was a teenager.

——It seems that Jie in this week is used to taking care of him.

Because it is presented in the form of a movie, the changes in the rounds do not always start from the time when Geto Suguru starts the round, but instead a small and impactful clip is selected and played, so Gojo Satoru does not know which round this is.

After paying the bill, Xia Yujie raised his lips in a good mood, and walked out of the store carrying the Kikufuku packaging bag. The white-haired boy excitedly waved at him, "Jie—look at this."

He has a furry pink bunny ear headband on his hand.

"...What? Why do you like this kind of thing, Satoru?" Xia Yujie complained helplessly and walked towards him.

This is where the accident happened.

Just when Geto was less than five meters away from Gojo Satoru, the sign on the second floor of the store loosened and fell straight down.

And right below it was Gojo Satoru, who was holding a pink hairband and smiling with his eyes tilted.

Xia Yujie's pupils shrank, he took a step forward, quickly dropped the shopping bag in his hand, and ran towards his best friend.

but.

The sign fell at an unscientific speed and landed on Gojo Satoru's head before Geto Suguru arrived.

Theoretically speaking, Gojo Satoru has no lower limit and is the strongest, so it is impossible for him to be hit.

But in a moment, blood spurted out.

The blood splashed onto the ground and also landed on Xia Yujie's face not far away.

It took only a few seconds for the black-haired boy to realize the situation and take action, but he missed it.

He stood only two steps away from Gojo Satoru, his pupils almost shrunk into a dot, most of the blood spurted out on his shirt, a small amount fell on his chin, and there was even a spot of blood that fell on the corner of his eye.

Like a blood-red tear.

The people around him screamed, but the black-haired young man stood still.

His pupils had dilated again, and he was now looking at the huge sign with his eyes lowered.

——His best friend is now being pressed down.

The people around him became illusory, and the camera focused on Gojo Satoru, who was pinned down. The sign hit him directly on the top of his head, and he died almost instantly.

Since he died in an instant, he did not feel any pain, and even his face still retained the expression he had in life. However, his beautiful turquoise eyes had lost their vivid emotions and became like an inorganic glass bead.

Beautiful, but rigid.

The voice that they were all familiar with rang out again, this time with a hint of undisguised schadenfreude.

"Allah, I failed again." He said this, but he also pretended to be regretful, "But... you no longer have a chance."】

Nagisa Yamagata, Yuji Itadori, and Megumi Fushiguro: It’s hard, my fist is hard.

Do you really think everyone is a fool, to reach a speed that exceeds the lower limit of normal gravity falling speed?

It's nothing but...it's nothing but some superficial mercy and sympathy towards the weak, relying on absolute power.

In fact, he doesn't care whether Geto Suguru's goal is achieved or not. He only cares whether his own goal is achieved or not.

After this incident, what He pursues in Geto Suguru will emerge.

There was an air of silence in the basement.

Next to him, there was a sudden and crisp "crack" sound of something wooden breaking.

The trio turned their heads in unison.
