Curse back: Gender-swapped cosplayers always meet the real person

Chapter 408: Tiger Stick's Dark Attribute

Note: This chapter is two chapters in one (the word count remains the same, but I am not very good at breaking up chapters (━┳━ _ ━┳━))

When I woke up, it was already bright.

In the last scene, I saw Ryomen Sukuna spreading his hands and laughing, and then the white ceiling of the room appeared in front of him.

After washing up, I put on my clothes, rushed out of the dormitory as fast as I could in my life, and ran towards the boys' dormitory.

Although there is a high probability that Ryomen Sukuna cannot do anything to Yuji, I was still deeply impressed by what Zangsang said a few days ago about how he suddenly broke free from his restraints and held Yuji's body and jumped into the "black hole" last week.

You have to go and confirm it yourself.

While I was speeding, I met Huibara and she greeted me.

His expression seemed a little strange, and he pointed at my shoulder and asked, "Um, Ms. Yuji, you..."

"Good morning, have a nice morning."

After saying this, I quickened my pace and ran away, leaving him waving at me from behind, as if he wanted to say something.

"Yuhito." I ran to the gravel road near the dormitory building in one breath. I walked over and saw Ijichi and Itadori standing there, looking at me with four eyes wide open in surprise.

"Sister Yuxin/Miss Yuji, why are you here?"

I looked up and down at Yuji's body and found that he was conscious and showed no signs of being possessed. I only breathed a sigh of relief after finding that Ryomen Sukuna didn't do anything to him.

I turned my head and just happened to meet Ijichi's twitching eyes and trembling fingers. He pointed at my shoulder and said hesitantly: "That... Miss Youxin."

"On your clothes..."

"Huh?" I looked down and found that I didn't know how two white socks were stuck to my coat. And I don't know why, the stickiness was so good that they didn't fall off even after I ran for so long.

I:"........."

Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, there's nothing to be embarrassed about, it's just a small scene, hahaha... It's hard to imagine that I actually ran across half of the campus in this outfit.

Fortunately, only a few people saw it, otherwise I would have been so embarrassed.

I rolled up the socks and stuffed them into my pocket as if nothing had happened. I calmly explained, "It's probably static electricity. It got stuck to them accidentally when I was drying them."

"Um." Ijichi raised his glasses and asked cautiously, "Ms. Yuji, why did you come here...?"

There was a black car parked on the side of the road, which was obviously driven here to pick up Tiger Stick for a mission. If I had come a little later, they would have gotten in the car and left.

"Ah..." I looked up at the sky and came up with a good excuse in three seconds. "It's like this. Wow, isn't it the first time that Yuhito went out on a mission alone today? As his sister, I was a little worried, so I came over to check on him."

By the way, I'd like to observe that Ryomen Sukuna won't do anything weird under my nose, right?

Ijichi: "...This is really just a small task, not even a big one..."

Well, the subtext is, even that brother-doting maniac didn’t come with me, let alone me, right?

“Uh hahaha…it’s okay.” I simply walked over to the car, opened the door, and got in. I said, “I’m just going to take a look. I won’t cause any trouble.”

"Having said that..."

"So, where is the destination?" I asked. "Mr. Ijichi, let's get going."

Yuji and Ichichi: “….”

As if he could tell that I was determined to follow him, he could only sigh helplessly, got into the driver's seat, and said, "It's at Sato-Yakura High School, which is quite a distance from the technical high school, so, Ms. Yuji, I will drive faster, please sit tight."

*

The vehicle was travelling very fast indeed.

The flowers, plants and trees on the roadside flashed by, leaving only a trail of afterimages.

As if he could see that we still had something to say, Yidizhi considerately raised the isolation window in front to leave enough space for us to be alone.

"Sister Youxin..." Yuji asked a little puzzled, "Why are you here today——"

I held his shoulders and pinched the flesh on his cheeks, carefully examining the situation. After confirming that there were no black lines, I asked, "Did Ryoumen Sukuna do anything to you?"

"Ryomen Sukuna?" He was stunned for two seconds, seemingly not understanding where my fear came from. He just scratched his head and asked, "What does this have to do with Ryomen Sukuna?"

"Hmm..." I was startled and asked, "Well, let me confirm, don't you remember what happened last night? In that dream..."

If he didn't remember, that would be terrible. Maybe Ryoumen Sukuna had made some kind of deal with him and just forced him to forget it, just like in the plot.

"Last night...last night...dream..." He tilted his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly shouted, "Ah! That dream!"

It seems he remembers it.

"Shh..." I glanced at Ichichi who seemed not to hear anything, and said in a low voice, "Don't scream."

"Oh oh!" Yuji paused, then suddenly rushed over, grabbed my shoulders, and said anxiously, "Sister Youxin, don't believe what Ryoumen Sukuna said!"

"That guy is not only a chatterbox, but also cunning and likes to come up with some fancy little schemes. Who knows what he will plot in secret!"

"I know." I nodded and said, "I won't agree to it."

"That's good." His tense shoulders relaxed slightly, and he said to himself, "However, should I report this matter to Gojo-sensei and the others?..."

"No!" he retorted subconsciously.

"Eh?" Yuji's mouth opened slightly. He had never expected that my reaction would become so intense. He just asked in confusion, "Sister Youxin, why?"

"Ryoumen Sukuna proposed a deal. This is quite unusual, so we should report it to the authorities."

“It’s because it’s unusual.”

I touched my nose a little awkwardly. In order to hide my guilt, my eyes couldn't help but drift out the window. I couldn't help but recall what Xia Yujie said on Mount Kilimanjaro: "I will listen, but I won't change."

They were called away by Kujuku Yuki the day before yesterday to study the newly discovered cursed spirits, and they haven't come back yet. I can finally have two days of peace and quiet.

But if Yuji told them about this now, they would definitely come back and ask all kinds of questions, and I almost had PTSD.

It's already annoying enough, if it gets even more annoying, I won't be able to live anymore.

Yuji was still looking at me with his big, blinking, watery, pure and innocent eyes, as if waiting for me to convince him.

"Well..." I explained to him, "Think about it, these two special-class officers were called away by another special-class officer, so they must have important matters to handle. If we call them now, it will definitely distract them."

"Besides, it's hard to explain a few words on the phone." I patted his shoulder and said, "They will be back in two days anyway, so why not wait until then to explain it all together, don't you think?"

"Hmm..." Yuji rubbed his chin, as if he was already wavering, "It seems that what Gojo-sensei and Geto-sensei are going to deal with is indeed a very important matter..."

"Isn't it?" I continued to assure him, "Besides, I'm still here, what are you afraid of?"

"After all, neither of us intends to accept his contract, so there is no need to tell him."

"It seems... that's the truth?" He scratched his hair and suddenly asked, "Sister Youxin, you don't plan to accept Ryoumen Sukuna's suggestion, right?"

"Really? You're pretending that nothing happened, but you've actually already made the decision to use your body as a bargaining chip, right?"

"Huh?" I asked, "Why do you have such an idea?"

"I can't really explain it." He looked up, thought for a moment, and said, "Anyway, I just feel that this is something you can do."

"Ah..." Thinking of my past "feat", I felt guilty and could only say to him, "If you insist that my personality is like this, I can't deny it. But this time is different, this is Ryomen Sukuna."

"That moody, unpredictable lunatic, I can't trust him at all, how can I make a deal with him?"

"Tsk, who are you calling crazy?"

At this moment, two eyes suddenly popped out from the side of Tiger Stick's cheek, and he said arrogantly: "Hey, woman, what qualifications do you have to call me uncle like that?"

"Ryomen Sukuna." Yuji slapped his face hard and asked rudely, "Can you please not show up without my permission?"

He'd cover his eyes with his hands, and you'd pop out from the other side, like playing whack-a-mole.

And this guy even said smugly: "You think this will work? Naive."

"It's hard to say who is more childish." I crossed my arms, glanced at him, and asked, "Ryomen Sukuna, so why did you come out?"

"Hey, Itadori Yuji." He ignored me and seemed to be in a good mood, speaking in a bubbling voice, and said slowly, "I have a puzzle that I need you to guess."

"Think about it for a moment." He said, "Why, even though you are both in my mental space, you and your 'sister' wake up at different times?"

We opened our eyes at the same time.

"Maybe she was just lying to you." He said leisurely, "Have you ever thought that during the time you woke up, he was negotiating a deal with me?"

"So, when you were dressed, had breakfast, contacted the assistant supervisor and were about to go out, she rushed over and didn't even see your socks clearly." He said, "How about it, my reasoning is reasonable, right?"

"........" After about ten seconds of silence, Yuji raised his head and looked at me seriously, but his words were addressed to Ryomen Sukuna.

"I don't believe you. You're still trying to sow discord."

"Sister Youxin said that he didn't make a deal with you, so I really believe that she didn't make a deal with you." He said, "As for the different waking times, it may just be the difference in sleeping time."

"Because I had to go on a mission in the morning, I set the alarm very early last night. I was woken up by the ringing of the alarm this morning, but Sister Youxin just slept until she woke up naturally. There's nothing to doubt about that."

"Tsk, just wait and see." Ryomen Sukuna's pupils turned towards me, with malicious light in them, as if saying: Sooner or later, your body will be mine.

The next second, he completely disappeared in the silent space.

Yuji let out a breath and half lowered his head, his pink fluffy hair swaying. Then, he raised the corners of his mouth and said to me: "Look, Sister Youxin, there's actually nothing to be afraid of Ryoumen Sukuna. I can totally handle it."

"So, you don't have to worry about what he will do to me." He said, "As long as we all ignore him, he won't be able to jump up and down."

"That's the truth." I smiled and said to him, "Sooner or later, we will get rid of this guy completely. He is just a grasshopper in autumn and can't make any waves."

"Yeah!" He clenched his fist and smiled at me excitedly, but immediately said, "But... to be on the safe side, it would be better to report this to Gojo-sensei and the others right away."

“Eh——?” Not knowing how the conversation got to this point, I raised my eyebrows and said, “Right away? I don’t think there’s any need to rush.”

"Isn't there still a mission to be done there?"

"It shouldn't take long to call Gojo-sensei." I know, but there's a certain chance that guy will be summoned, so definitely don't do it.

"Maybe he has other things to do."

"What about Summer Oil teacher?"

"He must be very busy too."

"Well, Onii-chan."

"Hiss..." That guy should be staying with Shen'er now to study whether there are any missing memories that can be dug out. Wouldn't it be even more amazing if he told them to him?

Last time, Shimizu Masato just said a proposal, and that guy almost overturned the table and ran over to beat someone up. This time, it was dear Ou Doudou who was directly threatened. Who knows if he will come over regardless? That kind of thing, let's just forget it.

"Youjin, look, you still have a mission to perform. You can't be delayed because of this." I held his phone tightly, and finally compromised and said, "At least, wait until this mission is over before calling."

Please, let me be alone for a while.

"Okay then." He smiled, revealing two rows of white teeth that shone brightly in the sun. "It's a deal then, Sister Youxin. I'll call you in two days, after the mission is over."

Me: “…Deal.”

Is it my imagination?

Why does this child look a little sinister?

I always feel like he's a sunny, dark boy. Could it be because he's been with Geto Suguru for too long?......
