Gojo Satoru watched their backs from afar, unable to help but curl his lips in the forest.
Good, this "major event" has passed safely.
Just then, Suguru Geto seemed to sense something and glanced in his direction.
"!"
Gojo Satoru quickly crouched behind the bushes.
After a while, the Jujutsu High people left one after another. Suguru Geto and the twins were gone too. Only then did Gojo Satoru get up, patting his rear, and put on his backpack in a good mood.
So close~! He almost let the weird bangs see his tender and considerate side!
This time, the nameless village didn't experience a massacre, and Suguru Geto also met his adopted daughters. Gojo Satoru, who had hidden his achievements and fame, smiled slightly, grabbed the cursed spirit embryo, and went to the most sturdy house in the village. He silently climbed in through the window and placed the cursed spirit embryo in the bedroom as a Surprise.
Let them taste their own malice.
Let's go, let's go.
Now he was really going to leave. His head was about to split.
On the other side.
Suguru Geto took Canaan and Mimiko into the car. By the time their car reached Tokyo Jujutsu High, it was already dawn.
On the way, the two little girls told him that one was called Canaan and the other was called Mimiko, and the deceased was their mother. She had been bullied to death by the villagers, and the white-haired big brother had protected them and returned their mother's gold necklace.
Mimiko opened the ugly doll in her hand and pulled out a necklace from its belly.
Suguru Geto looked reluctant and told her to put the doll away quickly.
However, before Suguru Geto could inquire further, the two little girls, whose moods had swung wildly, developed a high fever and quickly fell unconscious.
In their sleep, they kept muttering about their mother. Suguru Geto remembered what his teacher, Masamichi Yaga, had said: twins are considered the same person in terms of cursed techniques, and their behavior seemed to suggest they were sharing the same dream.
Suguru Geto's heart ached.
He got out of the car and carried the two children straight to the treatment room. The awkward thing was that a school in Tokyo had just had an incident last night, and several children had been injured by cursed spirits. Now, Shoko Ieiri was working overtime to treat those children, and it seemed she didn't have time to help him with the twins.
Suguru Geto had to put the two children in the beds next door. He searched for a while and found a bunch of cold medicine, but it was all for adults. The twins looked only three or four years old. He read the instructions repeatedly, but he didn't dare to give them medicine without knowing.
Just then, an assistant supervisor who often helped Shoko Ieiri passed by. Suguru Geto quickly grabbed her, "Quickly, Asou-san, quickly help me see what medicine they can take!"
The assistant supervisor was also anxious when she saw the two little ones in the beds.
Under her guidance, Suguru Geto successfully fed the twins fever-reducing medicine and found cooling patches to put on their foreheads. The assistant supervisor said, "No, they're still burning up. I'll go get some alcohol. We'll wipe their bodies down."
"Okay."
They worked for almost an hour, and the twins' temperatures finally started to drop. But they kept crying, sobbing in their dreams, calling for their mother. They only calmed down when they were close to someone.
The assistant supervisor asked with concern, "What's wrong with them?"
Suguru Geto replied with a furrowed brow, "Yesterday, their mother passed away."
The assistant supervisor's first reaction was that the twins' mother had been killed by a cursed spirit. She couldn't help but show her sympathy, "How could this happen... the children are so young."
Seeing that the twins' condition was stabilizing, Suguru Geto breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Asou-san."
The assistant supervisor smiled, "You're welcome. Since they're okay now, I'll go home. You should get some rest too. Look at your eyes, they're all bloodshot. You haven't slept for days because of Gojo's thing, right?"
Suguru Geto forced a smile, "I'll sleep now."
He personally saw the assistant supervisor off. As he turned back, he saw the two little ones frowning again, having nightmares.
Suguru Geto quickly walked back, squeezed onto the bed, and sat awkwardly in the corner, letting the children snuggle close to him.
The little ones, leaning against Suguru Geto's warm body, slowly emerged from their nightmares, their breathing becoming calm and long.
"..."
Suguru Geto stared at the white ceiling, thinking about Gojo Satoru again.
Today, why did Gojo specifically call him to the village?
It couldn't be just to tell him, "We don't have any bright future," right? Could it be because of Canaan and Mimiko? But how did Gojo know that there were two suffering twins in that village?
He should have asked, he should have gotten to the bottom of everything, but when Gojo Satoru told him, with a tired face, that he hadn't closed his eyes for ten days, he couldn't force Gojo Satoru to explain everything immediately.
Suguru Geto's furrowed brows never relaxed. He reached into his pocket and took out the cursed spirit jade that Gojo Satoru had given him earlier.
He stared at the cursed spirit jade for a while, making sure the twins weren't waking up, then put it in his mouth.
"——!"
The cursed spirit jade tasted like a cloth that had been wiped with vomit. The disgusting taste went straight to his brain.
Suguru Geto was afraid of waking the twins who were finally sleeping soundly, so he tried to suppress the urge to gag and slowly pushed the cursed spirit jade down his throat, forcing himself to swallow.
Gulp. Another cursed spirit was added to his body, another curse.
Geto, what bright future do we have.
No, Geto isn't suited to being a bad guy. Geto just needs to be a good guy for life.
You're late, Suguru.
Everything is terrible.
In his dream, he saw Gojo Satoru standing in the Star Plasma Vessel Cult's outpost, holding Tsumiki Fushiguro's body. He also saw Gojo Satoru surrounded by villagers holding torches, and he said to him, You're really slow, Geto.
At his feet were piles of twisted corpses.
You're late, Suguru.
You're late, Suguru.
You're late, Suguru.
"...Suguru, Suguru!"
Suguru Geto woke up with a start, realizing it was already noon.
The two little ones were sleeping soundly beside him, and he had been sleeping in that awkward position for hours.
Sss...
He moved slightly, and his neck felt like it was about to snap.
Shoko Ieiri stood at the foot of the bed, looking serious, "I just got the news. The Jujutsu Headquarters is going to expel Gojo from Jujutsu High and put him on the wanted list. Suguru, what did you two do yesterday?"
Outside the principal's office, an assistant supervisor stood quietly at the door.
"Yamamoto-san!!!"
The assistant supervisor was startled, "Su-Su-Suguru-kun?!"
Suguru Geto asked with a murderous aura, "Is Yaga-sensei inside?"
"Uh, he is, but they're having a meeting..."
Due to the frequent unexpected incidents, Tokyo Jujutsu High had been having meetings very often lately.
"That's fine. I'll wait outside."
Inside the principal's office, the group of Jujutsu sorcerers who were about to break up the meeting heard the commotion outside. The elderly principal laughed and said, "Go ahead, Yaga. The meeting is over anyway."
The others also looked understanding.
Although Gojo Satoru and Suguru Geto had only been at Jujutsu High for a little over a year, they had a strong presence. Everyone knew how close they were. They were practically inseparable, even going to school in the same pants. Now that Gojo Satoru was in trouble, Suguru Geto was naturally the most anxious.
Masamichi Yaga politely said goodbye to the principal and his colleagues and walked out of the office. After he left, the old principal of Tokyo Jujutsu High sighed gently.
He was about to retire, and he didn't expect so many things to happen at the last minute.
It would be fine if these things could be resolved smoothly, but both the Jujutsu Headquarters' attitude and Gojo Satoru's personality made him feel that this wouldn't be easily resolved.
Outside, Masamichi Yaga and Suguru Geto walked out of the building together.
Masamichi Yaga explained the situation to Suguru Geto, "We can't hide the fact that Gojo hurt two non-sorcerers. The incident was reported early this morning, and the Jujutsu Headquarters called the principal this morning, expressing their intention to expel Gojo from Jujutsu High and put him on the wanted list for cursed spirits."
It was actually true.
Suguru Geto frowned and said, "Teacher, Gojo wouldn't hurt people for no reason. Although he's always been free-spirited, he's not someone who would arbitrarily harm others just because of his strength. He was trying to protect Canaan and Mimiko yesterday..."
"I know, Geto. Gojo is a good kid. The principal has already contacted the Jujutsu Headquarters. The Jujutsu Headquarters said they would send someone to investigate the situation in more detail before making a decision, so this matter is not yet settled. You were the first person to enter the village and the only one who saw Gojo yesterday. The people from the Jujutsu Headquarters will definitely have questions for you."
