Chapter 122 A desperate Halloween!
October 31, 2018, Halloween is here.
On a night when demons dance wildly, the streets of Tokyo are filled with bustling and decadent people, which can be roughly summarized as cigarettes, alcohol, women and children asking for candy everywhere.
Everyone is wearing camouflage or a mask, and they dress themselves up in an inhuman way. The various exaggerated shapes and appearances are dazzling.
Because of this, no one noticed the disaster just before the riot began.
…
"Idiot!"
After receiving a phone call from Knotweed asking about it, Kugizaki Wild Rose couldn't help but curse.
"Have you forgotten how we defeated Todo Aoi? In the concept of a conjurer, hair is also regarded as a part of the body and has symbolic meaning for the body. And he ran away immediately when he saw you. It must be There is something wrong in my heart!”
Kugizaki Wild Rose was going to be mad at this idiot, "When did you catch Mechamaru stealing Gojo-sensei's hair?"
"Um...about noon yesterday." The Japanese knotweed on the other side was obviously a little timid and answered weakly.
"I*******!"
You Tama discovered it at noon yesterday and didn’t report it until almost seven o’clock this afternoon?
Considering that a very nervous person like Knotweed might not think this was so strange, Kugisaki could barely hold back his inner urge to beat the person up.
"Don't worry too much. The damage caused by the curse is based on the importance of the limb. Hair is an insignificant limb. Coupled with the strength of Teacher Gojo, even the most powerful curse master cannot cause much damage with just a few hairs. "
In fact, when dealing with Toudou Aoi, Kugizaki's curse was mainly to interrupt the activation of his spells. What really caused the most damage was the black flash of Japanese knotweed.
Moreover, Mr. Gojo can also reverse the technique, so that even if he is injured, he can heal himself.
Thinking of this, Kugisaki felt a little comforted. After a burst of panicked footsteps, Luke's extremely reassuring voice sounded across the street.
"No problem, leave it to me."
After hearing this, Kugisaki breathed a sigh of relief. No one could defeat the strongest magician who was even more powerful than Mr. Gojo, so as long as Mr. Luk understood the situation, the matter would definitely be resolved smoothly.
…
"No problem, leave it to me."
"You all go back to Kyoto first. Something may happen outside later. When Gojo Satoru and I come back, you can go out again."
After saying this, Luke hung up the phone and frowned.
Nothing major happened in the past month or two, and he was a little numb. Only now did he realize that today is Halloween, the day when the Shibuya Incident happened, and the node where Gojo Satoru was designed to seal in the original work.
Hu Zi in front of him lowered his head guiltily, obviously blaming himself for his carelessness.
"Okay, it's not your fault."
After comforting the protagonist angrily, Luke put his legs on the table and started thinking.
In fact, he had specifically checked the mechanical pill. After all, he was the mole in the original work.
But because nothing unusual was found, and the Six Fingers of the High School and the Nine Symbols of the Cursed Fetus were stolen earlier, he thought it was the butterfly effect he brought about that caused the insider to replace him.
Ding dong dong!
Gojo Satoru called and brought news.
"It has been confirmed that Mechamaru, a second-year student in Kyoto, had a deal with Xinji and Julingfang and has been killed."
"You're dead, but what does he want with your hair?"
Luke has nothing to say about the betrayers, and even now he feels that all the evils in the original novel should be eliminated in advance.
"I can't figure it out, but the curse is ineffective on me." Gojo Satoru answered confidently. Even if he is not the strongest now, he is still second only to Luke.
"Be careful and be vigilant today."
Thinking of the other party's miserable condition after being sealed, Lu Ke simply told him the truth.
"That fake Xia Youjie is called Kensuo. He is a spellcaster from thousands of years ago. He can change brains and steal other people's bodies through spells."
"You mean, Xia You's body was desecrated by that ghost named Kensuo?"
Gojo Satoru quickly understood the situation, with murderous intent in his voice. He could not tolerate his best friend's body being used as a tool by others.
"This is a very insidious character. During the millennium, he signed contracts with countless magicians and turned their bodies after death into curses. Even Liang Mian Su Nuo was able to leave his fingers and reappear in the world because of him."
Luke looked at his watch. It was going to be seven o'clock, the time in the original novel, and he warned.
"Don't be stunned. They have the Prison Gate in their hands to seal you. Don't be careless and don't rely too much on No Lower Limit. You must be careful to avoid all attacks before the enemy is dead."
"Understood, I will be careful."
After saying this, Gojo Satoru hung up the phone.
Just after the call ended, the phone rang for the third time. Luke took out his phone and took a look. The caller ID was Shizuko Hoshino.
"Senior, come and eat cake, it's been agreed."
Jingzi's voice sounded hoarse than last time, and it was very erratic and intermittent.
This time, it was obvious that something was wrong.
Luke pursed his lips and said, "Who are you? Come out and speak."
There was a pause on the other end of the phone, and a gentle and strong male voice came.
"Oh, you are too impatient."
Surprisingly, it was the cord that Luke had just warned Gojo Satoru to be careful with. Lu Ke couldn't help but grinned, understanding Kensuo's plan. He didn't plan to seal Gojo Satoru, and he was the one to seal it.
"You are very courageous. You dare to have any ideas."
"Are you kidding me? I just wanted to see what it would be like when the cursed spirit dominates the world. What's wrong with me?" Kensuo's voice was still calm.
"I'm very brave, but what about you? Do you dare to accept my challenge?"
"Senior, cake, cake..."
Jingzi's trance-like voice came again, seeming to reveal a silent threat.
Lu Ke sneered and replied easily, "You've got the wrong person. Hoshino Shizuko and I are just former colleagues. At best, we are acquaintances, not acquaintances."
"I believe in my strength, but I don't go out of my way to save an insignificant person even though I know there is a trap."
The other person was silent for a moment, and then said something that made Luke no longer calm.
"Do you remember the first time you met the curse spirit?"
"At that time, a cursed spirit attacked you and your parents' car, causing them to die and you to be seriously injured. In other words, that cursed spirit can be considered your enemy."
Luke put his legs down from the table, his face gradually turned cold, "What do you mean?"
"If you don't come within ten minutes, I will send this cursed spirit to a place where you will never find it. Of course, Hoshino Shizuko will also die."
…
After hanging up the phone and looking at the long line of fans lining up to shake hands, Kugisaki announced with a bit of a headache.
"I'm really sorry. I have to leave temporarily due to something unexpected. If you don't have a handshake, please refund your tickets in an orderly manner. I will prepare a free handshake party as compensation later."
"Hey~ I've been waiting in line for a long time!"
"Kugizaki-sama! Please don't leave!"
"If you do this kind of thing just after you have become famous, you will become famous sooner or later!"
Opposition voices rose one after another in the crowd. Fortunately, today is Halloween and there are many interesting and entertaining programs on the street. Under the arrangements of the staff, the crowd gradually dispersed.
Kugisaki suppressed the irritability in his heart and kept bowing and apologizing.
She didn't know it before she became an idol, but after becoming an idol, although she was indeed very happy, troubles also came one after another, which made her a little doubtful whether the request she made to Teacher Lu Ke was right.
After the crowd dispersed, Kugisaki was about to return to Kyoto when he saw another woman standing on the periphery of the handshake meeting venue, looking at him.
They must be die-hard fans who don’t want to leave, right?
Kugizaki walked over and was about to speak to the person, but suddenly she was stunned in place. The surprise dispersed all emotions and magnified infinitely in her mind.
"Saori!"
The woman in front of her was about twenty-five or six years old. She was very beautiful. She was wearing a white dress. She looked exactly the same as in her memory. She was Bai Yueguang from Kugisaki's childhood, the gentle elder sister from the city - Sha. Weave.
"I saw it was you."
Saori's voice was as gentle and sweet as in her memory, and she was also a little surprised, "I didn't expect that the little girl back then would be so beautiful and become an idol, Kugisaki."
"It's really you, Saori."
Kugizaki was extremely surprised and held Saori's hand, and couldn't help but hug her, "I miss you so much. I never thought I could see you again. A large part of the reason for becoming an idol is for you."
Saori felt a little shy at such a warm welcome, so she let Kugisaki hug her tightly and let go after a while.
"I happened to see your handshake meeting promotion poster when I was getting off work, so I came over to take a look."
Saori touched Kugisaki's head and showed a gentle smile, "You've grown so tall. It's rare to see you. Let's go have a meal together?"
"good……"
Halfway through agreeing, Kugisaki's words were stuck for a moment. Thinking of what Luke just said, the words that came to his mouth suddenly changed.
"Saori, please accompany me to my school."
"Eh?" Saori was a little confused. Would a normal meeting place for old friends be a school?
“It’s still early, why not just go shopping outside.”
Saori looked at the time.
18:59:49
“Please, come back with me first, and I will explain it to you later.”
Kugisaki clasped his hands a little anxiously. Mechamaru betrayed her. Apparently the curse spirit had made big moves. She wanted to take Saori back to protect her first, and then let her out after Teacher Lu Ke had solved the hidden dangers.
"That's...ok." After a moment of hesitation, Saori nodded.
"Then take a tour of your..." school.
The last two words couldn't be uttered.
Because Saori suddenly felt that something hidden deep in her soul suddenly burst out.
Her eyes suddenly became blurry, and she felt severe pain all over her body. Her body seemed to be twisted into something else. The uncomfortable feeling made her want to cry out, but she couldn't.
At the last moment when her consciousness disappeared, she saw a look of despair and disbelief on Kugizaki's face.
"Saori!!!"
At 19:00 on October 31, 2018, [Inaction Transformation] was launched.
About 36,000 people in Tokyo were transformed into inhuman monsters by magic.
The demons are dancing wildly!
