Anime Crossover: Master is Not Here Today

Fujimaru Ritsuka helped Yoshino Nagi up and took out her phone to call Gojo Satoru.

Anyway, I was going to report to him about tonight's operation anyway, so this is a good opportunity to do it all at once.

"Hey, Gojo-sensei."

"It's me. Something just happened. Um, oh, okay, I understand."

After the call connected, she briefly reported on the battle with the real person, the two Sukuna fingers she found, and Yoshino Nagi's situation and request.

After chatting for a while, she looked at Yoshino Nagi, who looked nervous, gave her an OK sign, and smiled:

"He said it's no problem. And he said he would come over in person, then you can ask him for more details."

"Don't worry, that person may be frivolous, but he's a good person."

"That's great, thank you so much!"

Upon receiving a positive reply, Yoshino Nagi was filled with gratitude and bowed deeply to Fujimaru Ritsuka again, making her feel somewhat embarrassed.

Then, she got her home address from Yoshino Nagi and gave it to Gojo Satoru before hanging up.

"Mr. Gojo said he'd be there soon, but..."

As they walked home with Yoshino Nagi, Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly remembered that the other party hadn't mentioned a specific time for her arrival.

Um, Gojo Satoru isn't the kind of person who says he's almost there but has only just left the house, right?

She didn't want to stay up too late.

As she was thinking this, suddenly, a familiar, flippant laugh reached her ears—

"I say, your nightlife seems to be quite eventful tonight, Ritsuka."

"Teacher Gojo!"

Chapter 24 explains, and concludes.

Inside the interrogation room, Yoshino Junpei kept his head down, so his expression was not visible.

However, he was not immediately interrogated.

After he was brought here and locked in the interrogation chair, the group left, and no one has visited him since.

When he was first brought here, he was terrified. He was afraid of being questioned about his relationship with the real person, and afraid of dying without knowing why.

He had many random thoughts, about the teacher who disgusted him, about those who bullied him, and about the real person who discussed the soul and humanity with him, taught him spells, and helped him awaken his magic and master power.

Mr. Zhenren is indeed a bad person. He has killed many people and manipulates human souls.

But he was able to understand me, help me, and give me the strength to take control of my own destiny, opening a door to a whole new world for me!

I did nothing wrong. It was those who bullied me who deserved to die, and that disgusting teacher deserved to die too.

If it were a real person, he would definitely understand me and agree with me.

That's right, Mr. Zhenren is the only person who can support and understand me!

Therefore, I absolutely cannot betray Mr. Zhenren!

Ultimately, he made this decision and kept repeating and reaffirming his belief in his heart.

I absolutely cannot betray Mr. Zhenren!

I absolutely cannot betray them.

"Crench."

The old iron gate slowly opened, emitting a sharp and piercing creak, and a figure shone on his face through the outdoor light.

Has anyone arrived?

I absolutely cannot betray Mr. Zhenren.

Yoshino Junpei repeated his belief to himself once more, then slowly raised his head to look at the person who had come, and then froze on the spot.

"Mother.?"

"Shunping."

Yoshino Nagi's voice trembled as she saw Yoshino Junpei tied to the interrogation chair. Her carefully constructed facade of strength crumbled instantly, and tears streamed uncontrollably from her eyes.

She rushed forward with all her might, hugged her child tightly, and anxiously asked:

"Shunping, are you alright? Are you hurt?! What happened?!"

She carefully examined Yoshino Junpei from head to toe, checking for any injuries.

Just then, she suddenly noticed that Yoshino Junpei's usually neatly styled bangs were now messy, and through the messy gaps, there seemed to be something there.

So she gently brushed aside Yoshino Junpei's bangs—

"!!!"

Yoshino Nagi's hands trembled uncontrollably as she carefully brushed over the scar hidden by her bangs, afraid of hurting Yoshino Junpei.

As a long-time smoker, she recognized the scar as a result of being burned by a cigarette butt. She also had one on her hand, caused by accidentally burning herself with a lit cigarette butt.

However, Yoshino Junpei has nearly ten scars on his head, densely packed on one corner of his forehead, making him look ugly and ferocious.

This is definitely not a trace that could have been produced 'accidentally'.

"Shunping, what happened? Did someone bully you? Why?"

Why didn't you tell me?

Why didn't I discover this sooner?

The moment Yoshino Junpei saw his mother, his mind went completely blank. He could only stare blankly at Yoshino Nagi's face, unable to react or think.

He didn't know how much time had passed before he gradually came to his senses.

His mother's face was completely wet with tears; her beautiful features were now extremely haggard. Her gentle hand carefully stroked the scar on his forehead, and she said to him with sadness and shame:

"Shunping, I'm sorry, I'm not a good mother."

In that instant, he broke down.

I beg you, please don't hurt my mother!

"My mother is innocent, she knows nothing!!"

"I'll tell you everything, I'll say anything, I'll do anything you ask!!"

"Please, please don't hurt her, please, please!"

"Forehead"

Looking at the chaotic scene before them, everyone exchanged bewildered glances, unsure of what to say.

Why are they treated like they've committed some heinous crime, even though they haven't done anything? Aren't they the ones on the side of justice?

Nanami Kento's enlightenment to Gojo:

"Is this the real reason you chose to break the rules and bring them here? You shouldn't need to interrogate them anymore; they'll confess obediently."

"Do I look like the kind of scheming person? This is obviously just a coincidence, isn't it?"

Gojo Satoru grinned and said:

"But it saved me some trouble, which is not bad."

Yuuji Itadori looked at the mother and son, both of whom seemed mentally unstable, in the interrogation room and said with some concern:

"Are they alright? Should we go and explain?"

Nanami Kento shook his head and said:

"No need. It's best to let them explain themselves. If we step in now, it will really look like we're coercing them."

After saying that, he looked at Gojo Satoru, adjusted his glasses, and said:

"I didn't expect this incident to be resolved so quickly. I only submitted the report this afternoon, and you managed to take care of that top-tier cursed spirit by tonight."

"I'm just curious, how did you know that guy would attack Yoshino Junpei's mother?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka remained silent, listening attentively, while Gojo Satoru grinned and said:

"Of course, because I'm the strongest—just kidding."

"I guess it was a gut feeling. After all, the report said that Yoshino Junpei might be connected with that special-grade cursed spirit, so I just went for a stroll over there and unexpectedly ran into him."

After saying that, he helplessly shrugged, indicating that the other party was really unlucky.

Gojo Satoru's eyes were still firmly covered by a black eyepatch, but Fujimaru Ritsuka could feel his gaze on her, so she looked at Gojo Satoru as well, and they exchanged a knowing smile.

She is one of Gojo Satoru's hidden trump cards, and it's not time for her to reveal herself yet.

She's just an ordinary level three sorcerer right now, so naturally she doesn't have the strength to kill a powerful special-grade curse spirit. Therefore, the blame can only be placed on Gojo Satoru.

They also asked Yoshino Nagi to help cover up the truth, which was one of the conditions for her to meet Yoshino Junpei.

However, to her surprise, Gojo Satoru agreed so readily on the phone that she thought it was in accordance with the rules, but it turned out that it wasn't at all.

To this, Gojo Satoru simply smiled dismissively:

"It's just a violation of the rules. I've violated the rules countless times. It's no big deal."

'Those old bastards, do they dare to judge me? What a joke.'

It's arrogant, but also perfectly reasonable.

The finger that Sukuna was retrieved has been fed to Itadori Yuujin by Gojo Satoru. The latter said it didn't taste like much, but it was still edible.

Inside the interrogation room, Yoshino Junpei's sudden outburst startled Yoshino Nagi, but after realizing that Yoshino Junpei had misunderstood them, she quickly explained the whole incident.

Yoshino Junpei's expression changed continuously as Yoshino Nagi narrated, eventually falling silent, lost in thought.

As the noise in the interrogation room gradually subsided, the group exchanged glances. Nanami Kento led the way in and said to Yoshino Junpei:
