Chapter 25 The Other Party's Reaction

"The real person was killed by Gojo Satoru."

Xia Youjie's words were like a drop of water falling into a calm lake, creating ripples.

"Damn it, why is Gojo there!?"

The top-tier cursed spirit Louhu, with a volcano-shaped ornament on its head, had its single eye in the center of its face bulging out in anger, and the temperature around it gradually rose with its agitated emotions.

Yes, why would Gojo Satoru be there?

Xia Youjie unconsciously rubbed his chin, lost in thought.

As far as he knew, the person in charge of investigating the incident was only a first-level sorcerer, the vessel of Su Nuo, and an unremarkable third-level sorcerer.

Gojo Satoru should be on another mission in another location at this time, so it's impossible for him to suddenly appear there.

Could it be that the human who was trained by the real person confessed everything?

No.

Not to mention how long the process of interrogation, information gathering, report submission, problem discovery, and investigation takes, what's more, that human knew nothing at all and was simply being played by a real person.

In addition, after learning of the real person's death, he secretly went to investigate the area.

The remnants of cursed energy in that area had been completely cleared away, leaving no useful information. However, he still discovered a new point of suspicion—

There were almost no traces of fighting left in that area.

The so-called traces of battle are the damage caused to the surrounding buildings or environment during the battle. Unlike the remnants of cursed power, these things cannot be repaired and cleaned up in a short time.

As a special-grade cursed spirit, the real person was only born recently and his abilities were still developing. He had no doubt that he had absolutely no chance of winning against Gojo Satoru.

However, there were no signs of damage to the surrounding buildings.

If his memory is not wrong, neither Makoto nor Gojo Satoru should be the type to fight without being careful not to damage their surroundings.

Of course, if Gojo Satoru were to unleash his [Domain] the instant he fought Makoto, killing him within the domain, he could indeed do so without damaging the surrounding buildings and environment.

However, this possibility is very low. Absolute strength has given Gojo Satoru absolute confidence, or rather, arrogance. Therefore, he would never act so cautiously.

If that weren't the case, Louhu would probably have died at Gojo Satoru's hands when he overestimated his abilities and went to fight him.

So, why?

Gojo Satoru, who shouldn't have been there, and the scene, which was completely out of character for him and showed almost no signs of a fight, were also there.

"Perhaps, it's not Gojo Satoru."

Xia Youjie suddenly spoke, instantly drawing everyone's attention.

"What do you mean? You mean the person who killed the real person wasn't Gojo Satoru?!"

"How could that be? Apart from Gojo Satoru, the rest of the jutsu world are nothing but rotten fish and shrimp!"

Louhu's first reaction was disbelief.

As a top-tier cursed spirit born from humanity's negative emotions towards volcanoes, he was born to be the most powerful cursed spirit. The real person, on the other hand, was a cursed spirit born from humanity's fear of the 'human' group itself, and like them, he was born to stand at the pinnacle of the cursed spirit sequence.

"Don't underestimate sorcerers. Besides, this is just my guess."

As 'Xia Youjie' spoke, he imagined the images of the real person and Gojo Satoru in his mind, and between them, a dark figure slowly rose up.

An unknown, mysterious being instantly eliminated the real person using some unknown method, and then Gojo Satoru helped cover up the traces.

Could this be Gojo Satoru's hidden trump card?

Even the most powerful sorcerer in the world of sorcery, the seemingly invincible Gojo Satoru, would he also hide a trump card for himself?

He could not rule out this possibility.

On the other side, a special-grade cursed spirit, Hua Yu, whose appearance was ferocious and ugly but possessed a gentle female voice, asked from her eye sockets:

"The question now is, what should we do next? Should we continue according to the original plan?"

Hanamichi has indeed pointed out an important issue.

In their original plan, the real person and the Su Nuo finger he carried were both important parts of the plan.

Moreover, it was precisely because a real person was present that they were able to persuade that person to help them obtain information about the world of sorcery and cooperate with them in carrying out some underhanded actions.

But now the real person is dead.

After pondering for a long time, Xia Youjie spoke:

"Next, we'll do this."

-

The interrogation of Yoshino Junpei is progressing very well, or rather, there is no progress at all; it is already completed.

After Yoshino Nagi tells Yoshino Junpei about how she was almost killed by Masato that night, he finally realizes what happened and is terrified of his previous friendly interactions with Masato. He also expresses his deepest gratitude to Gojo Satoru for saving his mother.

Therefore, he confessed to everything that had happened during this period.

His magical powers had only recently awakened, and it was pure coincidence that he was sitting in the same movie theater as the victims. He had absolutely nothing to do with the entire murder case.

However, it was because of this incident that he met the real mastermind behind the case, the real person who had already been killed by Gojo Satoru.

Because he was often bullied at school and didn't have many close friends, he didn't tell Yoshino Nagi about his situation so as not to worry her. He silently bore everything on his own.

On the very day of the movie theater incident, he happened to meet the real person and witnessed him using magic to transform the victims into monsters.

However, faced with such a bizarre and unusual event, he was misled by his inner impulse and took the initiative to chase after the other party and start a conversation. For some reason, the other party did not kill him directly, so the two naturally began to communicate.

It was during this period that the other party taught him the basic application of spell power and helped him master his own spells.

As for why he couldn't help but attack the teacher that day, it was because the teacher, unaware of the truth, mistook the group of people who bullied him at school for his friends and wondered why he didn't care about them, which made him angry and impulsively do that.

"To actually ask a cursed spirit for advice on using cursed magic? What a terrifying joke."

Even Nanami Kento, known for his composure, couldn't help but make a comment after hearing Yoshino Junpei's story.

However, the world of sorcery doesn't seem to have any rules prohibiting learning sorcery from spirits.

As for the final issue of bullying and attempted assault on the teacher, he said he was not in a position to comment and had no intention of commenting. At least in terms of the outcome, Yoshino Junpei's actions were stopped by Itadori Yuujin and Fujimaru Ritsuka, and no one was injured.

"So, what are you going to do?"

Nanami Kento looked at Gojo Satoru. Although Gojo Satoru didn't have the authority to handle such matters, no one could stop him if he wanted to.

Looking at the mother and son nestled together, Gojo Satoru smiled with amusement and said:

"of course."

Chapter 26 The New Transfer Student, Yoshino Junpei

"Hello everyone, my name is Yoshino Junpei, and my technique is called [Yodozuki]. Nice to meet you!"

On the playground, Yoshino Junpei, dressed in a college student uniform, introduced himself somewhat reservedly.

After this series of events, Yoshino Junpei would never return to his original school. As a jutsu master of school age, he was naturally lured to a vocational high school by Gojo Satoru.

Yuujin Itadori continued to study and go on missions with Kento Nanami. According to his and Satoru Gojo's plan, they planned to return on the day of the exchange meeting to give Megumi Fushiguro and Nobara Kugizaki a big surprise.

It was indeed a surprise, but what happened afterward?

Fujimaru Ritsuka once again observed a moment of silence for Itadori Hisahito.

Getting back to the main point, the reactions of the people to Yoshino Junpei, who was new to the area, were varied.

The panda exclaimed in surprise:

"Another transfer student has arrived! Are there too many new students this year? Is the world about to end?!"

After looking him up and down, Kugizaki Nobara said with disdain:

"He looks so weak and limp, he has no manliness at all. Are there no good men in the world of sorcery?"

Fushiguro Megumi glanced at her and said:

"By the way, what are the standards for a good man?"

"how could I know?!"

"."

Kugizaki Nobara responded confidently, while Fushiguro Megumi subtly withdrew her gaze, silently thinking to herself:

A woman who is completely unreasonable.

Why are there pandas at school? And they can even talk?! Is one of my classmates?!

Looking at his future classmates, who were all strangely shaped (specifically pandas) and had different personalities, Yoshino Junpei nervously clenched the hem of his clothes, unsure of what to do.

Just then, he suddenly saw Fujimaru Ritsuka smiling and waving at him from the corner of his line of sight.

Seeing familiar faces immediately calmed him down.

Although they were acquaintances, they weren't that close; it was just a matter of one being arrested and the other being arrested.

Up to this point, all he knows is that the other person is named Fujimaru Ritsuka, is in the same grade as him, is a summoner like him, and is extremely powerful.

He still remembered the moment when Fujimaru Ritsuka and Itadori Yuujin rushed out to stop him. They were both shikigami, but his Yodotsuki was destroyed by the other shikigami with a single, casual move.

Most importantly, Fujimaru Ritsuka is incredibly cute, far more beautiful than the school beauty of their former school, and possesses an indescribable mysterious charm.

In addition, for some reason, his mother, Yoshino Nagi, seemed to get along very well with the other party, like best friends.

A flurry of thoughts raced through his mind. Looking at the smile on Fujimaru Ritsuka's face, Yoshino Junpei blushed slightly and mustered his courage to reply:

"Hello, Ritsuka-san, nice to meet you from now on."

"Yes, nice to meet you, Yoshino-kun."
