Coming out of the courtyard, the two left amid the horrified gazes of the sorcerers.

Gojo Satoru carried Shi Ning and landed in the woods outside the Jujutsu High School.

Shi Ning patted his wrinkled collar and looked up at Gojo Satoru, who was standing opposite him with his hands in his pockets and a nonchalant posture.

"Teacher Gojo, if you have nothing to do, I will go back to school." Shi Ning said with a smile.

Gojo Satoru took two steps forward and looked at Shi Ning with his head tilted. The six eyes behind the eye mask had a strong presence, and Shi Ning could clearly feel Gojo Satoru's gaze.

"You really don't know the whereabouts of Ryoumen Sukuna's finger?" Listening to Gojo Satoru's meaningless question, Shi Ning smiled and shook his head very obediently: "I don't know, the finger is not with me."

She didn't lie, Ryoumen Sukuna's finger was definitely not there.

"Teacher, you are not doubting me, are you?" Shi Ning added. She now urgently wanted to return to school, find Xiao, and then go to Rosalia.

It had been so long and chats were no longer happening in the group, she was worried.

"Haha, how could that be? You are the teacher's most trusted classmate." Gojo Satoru suddenly laughed, put his arm around Shi Ning's shoulders, and shook her a few times.

"I am honored to have the trust of Gojo-sensei."

Gojo Satoru stood up straight and adjusted his eye mask. "One of the fingers stored in the high school's Jiku is missing, and the only person who has come into contact with the Jiku is named Ishimori Luren. I heard that he is the assistant supervisor of your mission this time. But I am very pleased that you did not abandon the light and join the dark."

Shi Ning smiled and nodded: "Teacher, don't worry, I won't betray you."

Gojo Satoru waved his hand, and the next second, he disappeared in front of Shi Ning.

After Gojo Satoru left, Shi Ning fell into deep thought.

What exactly did Gojo Satoru mean by his last words? Was he sending her information?

Why did he send her information? Could it be that... he already knew that Shi Ning had touched his finger?

Shi Ning raised the hand that had made extremely brief contact with her fingers. She focused all her attention on her eyes. After a while, she could not see any remaining curse power on her hand.

However, the six eyes are a godsend that only appears once every few hundred years, and they might be able to capture details that they could not notice. These details also allowed Gojo Satoru to confirm that his finger had briefly existed in Shi Ning's hand.

Since it has been confirmed, why didn't he ask further questions but instead sent the information over?

Shi Ning suddenly thought of a word - cooperation.

Shi Ning wanted to establish a cooperative relationship with Gojo Satoru. She gave Gojo Satoru the information that Geto Suguru might still be "alive", but Gojo Satoru did not pay anything of equivalent value.

In other words, Ryoumen Sukuna's finger, Ishimori Kakuto, and the specific whereabouts of the finger are the benefits of cooperation given by Gojo Satoru.

From this perspective, Geto Suguru is really valuable.

Shi Ning glanced at the sky. It was already dusk. She scratched her hair and felt like she had forgotten something. Her brain was a mess, filled with useful and useless information.

So...her fox hadn't been seen in nearly a day?

Shi Ning was suddenly startled and ran towards the gate of the college at an extremely fast speed.

Rushing into the dormitory, Shi Ning looked breathlessly at Jie, who was licking a glass of water pitifully in front of the dining table. She picked up the fox with some guilt: "Sorry, sorry, he was caught by the higher-ups today. I'll take you to a big meal later..."

The fox let out a pitiful cry, which sounded very aggrieved.

Shi Ning walked out of the girls' dormitory, stood in the open space, looked up at the sky, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Xiao - Xiao, are you there -"

The sound was so loud that Jay was startled and his whole body of fox hair stood on end.

"What do you want to call me for?" A cold and steady voice suddenly sounded, and a dark green-haired boy suddenly appeared with a gust of black wind. Shi Ning put his hand on Xiao's arm and said, "Hurry, let's go to Pingyang Street."

Xiao nodded, and the next second, both he and the fox appeared on the street of Pingyang Street.

***

Jiuqi Shinobu and others who had just arrived at Pingyang Street had not eaten much in the morning. After smelling the tempting aroma from the breakfast shop, they decisively decided to finish their meal first. No matter how evil their ideas were, normal people would not kill people in the morning, and they couldn't even get up.

Just as the four of them were sitting around a table, waiting for the buns to be served, the food of an old professor sitting behind them came up. It was also a few meat buns, which looked particularly appetizing.

Maybe the food in this restaurant is really delicious, people keep lining up in the back, almost forming a long queue.

"There are so many people here." Coral Palace Xinhai sighed while gathering his clothes.

"After all, it's delicious." Wendy propped up her face, "The only downside is that they don't sell alcohol here."

"Wake up, Basbatto. Your request is too harsh. If Barbara knew, she would cry."

"How rude, Rosalia. My name is Barbatos." Wendy lay on the table, looking at Rosalia sideways, one side of her face was squeezed a little flat.

"You don't care about this kind of thing, do you?" Rosaria was not fooled by her own god at all. "You are the only one who left Mondstadt alone for such a long time."

"After all, I am the God of Freedom. Isn't the best freedom to rule by doing nothing?" Wendy was not ashamed at all. Instead, she was extremely proud of her philosophy of governing the country.

"Yes, yes, it would be better if I don't have to work overtime."

Just when a few people were chatting happily, a terrified scream suddenly came from the table next to them, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

No way, someone died early in the morning?

This was the first thought of several people. They looked over and saw the old teacher sitting on the ground. His table had turned over. The colorful and delicious buns fell to the ground, covered with dust, and the soup and soil merged into one.

"What happened?" Coral Palace Xinhai helped the old professor up and asked worriedly.

The old professor's hands were shaking as he pointed at the steamed buns. He could no longer control his voice: "This, this is not pork... This is human flesh, human flesh!"

In an instant, Coral Palace Xinhai thought of the name of this mission.

【Pingyang Street Dismemberment Case】

It's not a murder case, but a dismemberment case.

Coral Palace Xinhai and Jiuqi Shinobu looked at each other, and helped the old teacher who was retching and trembling to sit on the stool on the other side.

The originally neatly arranged team became disorderly because of the old professor's words, and the sound of whispers continued to be heard.

The noise here alarmed the store manager. The tall and strong man lifted the back curtain. He thought someone was making trouble and even holding a spatula in his hand: "What, what happened!"
