Curse Back to Five Summers: Best Friends Are an Excuse for Couples

"Ah~" Nosuo sighed, unable to bear to look at the bloody fist of Tiger Stick. He called out to Tiger Stick, "I'm telling you, stop doing this useless work. If you don't beat me, you won't have a chance to get out."

Yuji is actually very desperate now. He can feel that he is no match for this woman.

In this case, he didn't want to confront the other party head-on, and wanted to find a way out for himself in other ways.

However, he was indeed not smart enough. When the other party had no intention of letting him go, if he had not been sure enough that he could not break the barrier, he should have taken action as soon as Yuji's first punch came down.

The reason why he didn't take action was because he had absolute confidence, confident that Yuji could not break his barrier.

Being completely ignored by Yuji, Nozomi felt a little unhappy, but at this time, he rarely showed any purposeful warmth.

"Hey," he called out to Tiger Stick, "my son, come to your mother."

The fist that was about to hit the wall suddenly stopped. Yuji was still angry and was breathing heavily, but his eyes were dull.

The boy seemed to have turned into a puppet in an instant. He stared blankly at the wall that was stained red with his own blood. After a long time, he turned his head away mechanically.

He stared at the smiling Noose with wide eyes. The two of them stared at each other until Yuji asked him in a very soft voice, "What...did you say?"

Son and...mother?

Who, who is the son and who is the mother?

Nosuo tilted his head slightly, his shoulder-length hair cascading down from behind his ears. The smile on his lips deepened as he said, "Of course it's you and me. You are my son, and I am your mother."

This sudden recognition of kinship completely confused Yuji. Such words were obviously ridiculous, but for some reason, he felt that it might not be fake. As for why he had this strange feeling, he couldn't explain it at all.

This face...

Yuji felt that some dusty memories were being awakened deep in his brain——

[Grandpa, why do other children have mothers but I don’t?]

Because your mother died.

【Grandpa, what does mom look like? 】

I can’t remember clearly. Old people don’t have good memories.

[Grandpa, look what I found under the bed in that room over there. Who is this beautiful aunt? Is her forehead injured?]

[Youjin, you are not allowed to go to that room again, and you are not allowed to rummage through the things in that room. Remember? ]

So, who is she? The person next to her also has pink hair. Is he her dad? And is the baby in her arms me?

【…】

【Grandpa, is she my mother? 】

……

In fact, Yuji had forgotten what happened so long ago. He couldn't even remember what the woman in the photo looked like. However, he remembered that the woman had a scar on her forehead. It was a scar that had grown for some time after the suture, and it looked a bit hideous to a child.

It was so striking that the facial features of the person in the photo became blurred, but the scar left by the suture line appeared particularly clear in contrast.

Yuji remembered that the vague face deep in his memory gradually overlapped with the face of the woman in front of him.

"Mom...Mom?" Yuji called out unconsciously.

This sound made Nozomi feel both disgusted and amused. He seemed to be possessed by a spirit of drama, nodding with a smile and waving at Itadori, "Yuji, come here, come to your mother."

Yuji retracted his fist that was about to hit the wall, obeyed the noose's orders like a zombie, and walked towards the noose with heavy steps.

"That's it. Come to Mom, we'll recognize each other as mother and son, and then we can work together for that new world of our dreams."

Seeing Itadori coming in front of him, the stubborn boy's eyes were filled with a complex emotion that Noose could not understand. This was an emotion unique to humans, and Noose, who had long since abandoned his human identity, no longer wanted to study in detail what this emotion was.

Rather than this, he would rather take the opportunity to brainwash the boy.

In his eyes, the boy has always been a clear-headed and stupid fool, and brainwashing a fool is as easy as pie for him.

He said, "We can build and welcome that new world together, we...ah!" Noose cried out in pain.

Just as he was complacently imagining a bright future, before he could finish his words, he was hit hard in the face by a right hook from Yuji.

The young man clenched his bloody right hand into a fist and swung it with all his strength at the smiling face of the noose.

The force of this punch was so great that it made Luosuo's face hideous and distorted, and his smile disappeared.

When Yuji wanted to continue punching, Nozomi reacted quickly and grabbed Yuji's wrist.

He widened his eyes in disbelief, "You bastard, you dare to hit me?"

"You're the bastard, you androgynous shemale! You must have used some weird spell to transform yourself into my mother. I'm grown up now, so I'm not that easy to fool. Don't even think about fooling me!"

With both hands clamped by the noose, Yuji leaned his upper body back and headbutted Noose in the face with all his might.

Blood flowed from the nose and mouth of the noose. He had been domineering in the world for so long that he had long forgotten what it felt like to bleed and feel pain. He did not expect that a child would hit him twice in a short period of time.

When a son hits his mother, he is simply rebelling against the Heavenly Gang.

Nozomi hit Yuji with his knee, almost making him vomit out the rice ball he had eaten at noon.

A thousand-year-old monster like Yusuo has long lost any family affection. What's more, this is a monster he created by borrowing someone else's body. Even if Yusuke looks different from others, it's only a little bit different. Can you expect him to give any motherly love or paternal love?

How can it be!
