"so close."
Kugisaki walked through the corridors, patting his heaving chest with lingering fear.
It’s hard to refute when Bai Jue pretends to be in front of him in the name of saving himself...
It would be better to go back to the pile of cursed spirits and gamble on life and death.
Between spiritual death and physical death, Kugisaki chose the latter.
Wiping a wisp of cold sweat from his forehead.
Kugisaki, who was thankful to have escaped the disaster, was suddenly pulled into the room by an arm stretched out from the side.
"Hedgehog man?"
"Pink-haired orangutan?"
Kugisaki looked at everyone in the operating room and blinked in confusion.
What?
Is hiding in vain worth sending out so many troops to encircle and suppress you?
The two people who were nicknamed inexplicably by Kugizaki were speechless.
Bai Jue gets the nickname poisonous...
Gojo Satoru just shouted along, and so did Kugisaki, who had been quarreling with Bai Zetsu.
Fushiguro closed the door.
After sorting out his words, he recounted what happened after Kugisaki fell into coma.
"What?!"
"The pink-haired ape also plays the role of resurrecting the dead?"
Are you so up to date with current events?
Kugisaki leaned close to the knotweed and looked up and down his body, his eyes full of suspicion.
Gojo Satoru raised his hand: "It's true~"
Kugisaki simply ignored the eyepatch man's words.
It wasn't until she saw Glass and Ichichi nodding that she finally believed it.
"So, you suddenly pulled me in just to say this?"
Kugisaki put his hands on his hips and looked at the people in confusion.
that's it?
Huzhan's face darkened, and his mood suddenly deteriorated.
"I brought you in because..."
Gojo Satoru and Kugisaki Fushiguro walked aside and conspired in a low voice.
And Kugisaki's expression also became complicated at this moment.
"Does it have to be this way?"
Kugisaki asked with some embarrassment.
"necessary."
Gojo Satoru nodded solemnly.
...
At dusk, the high-level officials of the High Commission issued an official document.
"Mission record: July 2018, Nishi-Tokyo City Eiji Juvenile Home."
"Special Wraith: The first-year high school student Hisato Hisahi is confirmed to be dead."
As for the other cursed spirit Bai Jue who was supposed to die but appeared in the high school intact.
The senior management seemed to act as if nothing had happened and continued their usual attitude of disregard.
...
The next day.
The sun is dazzling at nine o'clock in the morning, and the cicadas are chirping.
On the steps of the high school training ground, Fushiguro and Kugisaki sat side by side, silent to each other.
"Hui, you look even worse than usual."
"Are you squatting here in mourning?"
A familiar tone sounded, and Fushiguro raised his head in confusion.
"Senior Zenyuan?"
"You guys are back from your mission?"
Wearing a high school uniform with a dark green ponytail.
Maki held a long packaged knife on one shoulder and frowned: "Don't call me that last name."
"Maki, Maki!"
Panda and Gou Juan, one bear and one bear, hid behind a big tree and whispered, "Didn't you read the notice issued by the high commissioner?"
"One of the first-year students really died yesterday!"
Gou Juan blinked: "Muyuhua."
Maki turned her head stiffly and questioned the two of them word for word why they didn't remind them. (For subsequent convenience, we will not write one person and one bear, or several people and several spirits, but all people will be called people.)
"they are?"
Kugisaki tilted his head and asked Fushiguro, a little doubt appearing on his face.
"They are all second-year seniors."
Fushiguro introduced each one: "Maki-senpai who is good at using magic tools."
"The curser, Inumaki-senpai who can only speak the names of rice ball fillings."
"Finally, Senior Panda."
After listening to the introduction, Kugisaki stood up with his hands on his hips: "Are there only so many students in the school?"
Fushiguro stood up and said seriously: "There is one last person, the only second-year Otoko-senpai who is worthy of respect."
Someone who is expelled from school does not count.
Watching the two people get up, Panda and Inumaki also walked to Maki's side.
"I'm sorry, Maki didn't know about the mission sacrifice."
Hearing this, Fushiguro and Kugisaki nodded listlessly.
Knotweed is still alive, something Gojo Satoru has asked to keep secret.
The two people were upset before, and it was not about the knotweed.
The panda apologized sincerely and quickly told the two of them the reason for their visit.
"Kyoto sister school exchange meeting."
Kugisaki and Fushiguro seemed to have known about it in advance, and they nodded and agreed.
"By the way, where's Bai Jue?"
The panda blankly swept around the playground.
"That guy probably hasn't woken up yet."
"A level four curse spirit with no ambition at all."
Maki complained with a look of hatred on her face.
"oh!!"
Kugisaki's eyes widened for a moment, and Madoka suddenly realized, "So you are Ma Baonan's niece!"
"Mama's boy?"
"niece?!"
Maki gritted her teeth and looked at Kugisaki with a dangerous gaze.
Even if she doesn’t understand what mama’s boy means, the word niece is her opposite!
"Hey, freshman."
"You actually agreed to participate in the exchange meeting. You won't be absent from the intensive training."
"certainly!"
Fushiguro and Kugisaki replied in unison.
Kugisaki brushed the hair beside his ear and said firmly: "I'm not interested in training that's too simple."
"Training intensity, the stronger, the better!"
She didn't want to experience Bai Jue's feelings when he risked his life to save her again...ever!
Fushiguro didn't speak, but his eyes were filled with determination.
From school to juvenile home, this was the second time that Huzhang risked his life to save him.
Both of them have a reason to become stronger at all costs!
"Oh~"
"The eyes are good!"
Maki, who was still angry before, showed deep appreciation on her face.
"Come on, training starts now!"
...
Senior college, secret room.
The empty training ground was simply equipped with a TV, a sofa, and a tea table.
Dozens of movie discs were stacked on the tea table, with a yawning puppet lying on the table.
"Teacher Gojo, I know all this!"
Hezhuang raised his hand with excitement on his face.
"Bai Jue has taught me all these things in advance, and he even took me to watch a lot of movies!"
Gojo Satoru nodded and said with a smile: "As for the basic knowledge about curse power, you still need to consolidate it."
"For you who have just joined the magician world, watching movies is the best way to solidly train."
"In addition, actual combat can also improve your spell perception and sensitivity as quickly as possible."
Gojo Satoru raised his lips: "This month, I will be your training partner."
Hearing the words,
Knotweed immediately put on a happy smile: "Great!"
"If Master Gojo takes me to practice in person."
"I'm really happy."
Recalling the previous encounter, Hu Zhi said in a serious tone: "I am too weak now, and I can't save anyone."
"Let me become stronger, let me become invincible!"
Seeing the sincere expression on the student's face, Gojo Satoru was stunned for a moment, then showed a fond smile.
"Good taste."
...
2pm.
College, teacher's single-family house.
Bai Jue, who had just climbed out of bed, was yawning on his head.
"How was the training?"
Glancing at Bai Jue, who had just gotten up, Future asked from the sofa.
Bai Jue raised two fingers and said in a low spirit: "Two at most, and one must be high and one low."
"Double high brains are going to be burned out."
In the future, he flipped through the notes in his hand and said calmly: "That's enough for two. You can also participate in this exchange meeting."
"Ok~"
