Traveled through time and space and became Sukuna, but the host was Yukinoshita?

After a pause, she added, "Forget it this time."

Yuji Itadori stared at the beer can in his hand for a long time before opening it and drinking it all in one gulp.

"Okay, okay, that's how you should drink it." Lin Qi praised.

After drinking a can of beer, Yuji Itadori's cheeks soon turned red as he drank for the first time, and he started talking: "Senior Yukinoshita is amazing. He was able to act so decisively."

"Are you implying that I'm cold-blooded and heartless?"

"Of course not!" Yuji Itadori denied loudly, and then his voice became low again, "I just think that it's really amazing that you can make up your mind so quickly... Unlike me, I hesitated for so long."

"Because I'm strong, I have to help others as much as possible. This is what my grandfather said to me before he died. It can be regarded as a will." He laughed at himself. "But whether it was the time in the juvenile detention center or this time, I failed to save others' lives."

"What happened recently made me realize how weak I am. Not only in terms of physical strength, but also in terms of spirit..."

"As I said before, a student in our school was also killed by the criminal this time." Looking at Yuji Itadori with his hands on his knees and his head lowered, Yukinoshita Yukino spoke softly.

"Oh, yes." A hint of confusion flashed across Yuji Itadori's face. He didn't understand why she brought up this matter at this time.

"I killed him with my own hands." Yukinoshita Yukino said calmly.

"What?" His pupils suddenly shrank and Yuji Itadori subconsciously slowed down his breathing.

"Just like you killed the ordinary human who was transformed into a transformation cursed spirit, the student in my school was also transformed and became able to use cursed power and awakened the technique, but his body was parasitized by the curse. Before he completely lost consciousness and was controlled by the curse."

"He told me, 'Run away.'

"Then his body was completely taken over by the curse and he attacked me."

"After a fight, I killed him."

Yukinoshita Yukino's voice was flat, as if she was telling a story that had nothing to do with herself.

"This is too bad of a taste..." Yuji Itadori said in a hoarse voice, and the empty beer can in his hand was crushed by him.

Whether it was Okazaki Masaru whom he met in the juvenile detention center, or the poor man who was turned into a cyborg whom he met today, they were all unfamiliar "others" to Yuji Itadori Yuushi. This alone made him feel pain and anger.

He couldn't imagine how powerless and desperate he would feel if someone he knew was turned into a cyborg and he had no choice but to kill him with his own hands.

No wonder Senior Yukinoshita acted so decisively today. She must feel bad if she experiences such a ridiculous thing again.

Only I acted so cowardly...

"Lin Qijun once told me that the path of a sorcerer is a path covered with bloody thorns, and the road ahead is so long that it is hard to see what kind of future this path will lead to."

As Yukinoshita Yukino said this, she glanced at Lin Qi beside her and found that he was concentrating on his mobile phone.

She calmly withdrew her gaze and continued, "It's not okay to not get used to death. That's what Lin Qijun told me."

"But I probably will never get used to death." The girl lowered her eyes slightly, and her voice became very light, as if the sand in her hand would drift away as long as it was blown by the wind. "I will feel sad, angry, and helpless because of this..."

"All I can do is accept it, carry these heavy emotions, and move on."

“I believe this is the right thing to do.”

"So, go ahead, Yuji-san."

Yukinoshita Yukino raised her head and spoke to the pink-haired boy seriously.

Yuji Itadori looked at her blankly, with his mouth slightly open, but he didn't know what to say. He just felt that something in his heart seemed to be ignited by Yukinoshita Yukino's words, and his blood was boiling, burning throughout his limbs.

"Accept it, carry it, and move forward..."

Muttering with his eyes lost in thought, Yuji Itadori suddenly clenched his fists and raised his head again. The inappropriate and cowardly look on his face had disappeared, replaced by determination in his eyes.

"You're right, Yukinoshita-senpai." Yuji Itadori straightened his back again and said in a firm tone, "I will keep moving forward and become stronger, strong enough to stop those incorrect deaths!"

Then, he scratched his hair and showed an embarrassed smile on his face: "I'm so sorry for letting you see this inappropriate look."

"Please wait for me for a while. I will become stronger."

Yukinoshita Yukino untied the straw and inserted it into the strawberry milk in her hand, then drank it slowly: "No, to be honest, whether Yuji-san becomes stronger or not has nothing to do with me. I don't care at all."

"Pfft! Don't say something that would ruin the atmosphere at a time like this!"

Yuji Itadori complained loudly.

The rain outside the window had stopped long ago, and the dark clouds in the sky gradually dissipated. A beam of sunlight shone through the window, illuminating the entire room.

Lin Qi, who was standing behind the two of them, had already put away his phone and was watching this peaceful scene with a smile. His eyes fell on Yukinoshita Yukino.

Compared to the beginning, Yukinoshita Yukino has grown a lot and is now able to guide the younger generation.

Just as she was marveling at her growth, Lin Qi suddenly met the girl's furtive glance.

Yukinoshita Yukino immediately said, "As a teacher, shouldn't Lin Qijun say something?"

"Didn't you finish what you were saying?" Lin Qi shrugged. "That's right."

"Guiding students should also be within your job scope, right?"

"It's okay. I will appoint you as my assistant now."

"..."

Yukinoshita Yukino was speechless and could only roll her eyes in annoyance.

……

...Chapter 94: Something is wrong with Yoshino Junpei

The summer heat was reduced a little after the heavy rain, the air became fresher, and the small puddles on the streets reflected the clear sky like a mirror.

"On a beautiful day like this, we should do some beautiful things, so I'll leave the interrogation of Yoshino Junpei to you. The three dead are related to Yoshino Junpei, and that guy is also suspected of murder."

"I'm going to go around Kanagawa and see if I can find any clues. Judging from the guy's previous behavior, he might escape. It would be best if we could arrest him on the spot."

After saying this, Lin Qi drove the two of them onto the street.

"Can interrogation be considered a good thing? Generally speaking..." Yuji Itadori complained.

"If you take it seriously, you will lose." Yukinoshita Yukino said calmly.

Think back to the ridiculous things he had done since he met Lin Qi: he opened his mouth on his face and threatened himself with his tongue; he opened his mouth on his palm and threatened himself to feed him food...

Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. The more I think about it, the angrier I get.

"The information Lin Qijun gave me listed Yoshino Junpei's home address, and he seems to have not been to school since the movie theater accident. As long as we stake out near his home, we should be able to find him."

Yukinoshita Yukino said as she looked at the information sent by Lin Qi on her mobile phone.

The two came to the neighborhood near Yoshino Junpei's house. Just as they turned a corner, they saw a black-haired boy with side bangs walking out of a convenience store carrying a bag.

"Senior Yukinoshita, do you think that person is Junpei Yoshino?" asked Yuji Itadori, pointing at the black-haired boy with his sharp eyes.

"Yes, it's him." Yukinoshita Yukino carefully compared the photo and nodded affirmatively, "Let's go."

"Eh? Just ask directly?" Yuji Itadori was stunned for a moment, "Wouldn't it be bad to ask directly?"

"Why?" The girl looked puzzled.

"It feels quite embarrassing." He scratched his cheek and said a little embarrassedly.

"Yuji-san." Yukinoshita Yukino's expression suddenly became serious, "Do you know what we are doing now?"

"Um... aren't we investigating Yoshino Junpei?"

"Ugh."

Yukinoshita Yukino sighed helplessly. The last person who was so difficult to talk to and who took a long time to explain a sentence to was Yuigahama-san.

"We are investigating a murder case in which three people died, and Yoshino Junpei is the first eyewitness at the crime scene. Should we give up investigating him just to save your face?"

"Uh, I understand, I'm very sorry!" Yuji Itadori clasped his hands together and apologized quickly.

"You just understand."

Yukinoshita Yukino and Yuji Itadori chased after him, and finally stopped Yoshino Junpei at the door of his house and called out to him, "Yoshino Junpei-san."

Hearing someone calling his name, the black-haired boy with side bangs covering his right eye turned around in confusion and saw two strangers, a man and a woman, walking towards him.

"You are?"

"Oh, I'm Yuji Itadori, and this is Yukinoshita Yukino-senpai." Yuji Itadori greeted him with a generous smile.

"We have questions for you." Yukinoshita Yukino said straight to the point, "You skipped classes on June 23rd and went to the cinema to watch a movie. At the same time, three students from your school were also in the cinema, and you witnessed their deaths."

"am I right?"

"…Who are you? I've already taken the police's statement." Yukinoshita Yukino's straightforward question immediately made Yoshino Junpei alert, and the expression on his face became less friendly.

"You're right to think so." The girl nodded, "You just need to answer truthfully."

"...Excuse me for refusing." Yoshino Junpei took two steps back. "If there is nothing else, I want to go home. Please leave."

"Although you have cleared the suspicion from the police, you have not cleared it from our side. In other words, you are still a suspect from our side." Yukinoshita Yukino said with a cold face, "You have also seen the unusual deaths of the three victims, right? Then I will ask you straight to the point, what did you see at the time?"

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Yoshino Junpei's pupils suddenly shrank. These two people were coming for Mr. Zhenren!

"Wait, wait! Why did the situation turn out like this?" Yuji Itadori hurriedly came between the two of them, "Senior Yukinoshita, calm down a little!"

"Yuji-san, please move aside."

Yukinoshita Yukino saw all the changes in Yoshino Junpei's expression, and her suspicion of him immediately turned into certainty. Even if he was not responsible for the accident at the cinema, he must know something.

Who knows, maybe Yoshino Junpei is related to the cursed spirit that killed Ooka!

"So, Yukinoshita-senpai, calm down first!"

Seeing the girl ready to attack, Yuji Itadori quickly stopped her, fearing that she would do something that was very much in the style of Teacher Lin Qi, such as "knock down Junpei Yoshino and take him away for interrogation."

After temporarily stopping Yukinoshita Yukino, he turned to look at Yoshino Junpei and kindly advised: "You too, just tell us the truth about what happened, we won't make it difficult for you!"

"I have nothing to say..."

"Oh, Yoshino, you are here. It took me so long to find you."

Just as Yoshino Junpei was about to say something, a voice that made him feel extremely disgusted came from behind him.

A middle-aged man with a middle-parted hairstyle walked over while wiping the sweat off his face. His white shirt was bulging out due to his belly, swaying up and down as he walked, and the buttons in front of his belly looked like they would burst at any time.

"Dean of Studies..." Yoshino Junpei did not hide the disgust on his face at all.

"You haven't been to school for several days. Are you going to give up your studies?" The Dean of Studies said dissatisfiedly, "Not coming to school is fine, but you even didn't attend your friend's funeral. Isn't that a bit unreasonable?"

"You were always alone in school, and only those three people kept talking to you and were willing to be your friend..."

friend?

This guy must have something wrong with his brain.

Didn't you see what those people did to me? How could you call the three of them friends...

Yoshino Junpei slowly widened his eyes, staring at him intently, his fists clenched tightly, his nails digging deeply into the flesh of his palms.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at the teacher like that? Have you stayed at home for too long and have mental problems? I'm just kidding, haha!"

As the middle-aged man spoke, he began to laugh to himself. The fat on his face began to tremble with his movements, and his eyes seemed to be buried in the folds of flesh.

He looked at Yukinoshita and Yukino behind Yoshino Junpei and said, "By the way, I saw you guys chatting when I came here just now. Are you also Yoshino's friends? You shouldn't be from our school, right? I didn't expect that Yoshino, you don't have many friends in school, but you do have people you can talk to outside of school."

"Please help me persuade him. It's not good for him to stay away from school all the time."

"Excuse me." A cold voice interrupted the middle-aged man's monologue. Yukinoshita Yukino said coldly, "We have something important to ask Yoshino-san. Excuse me."

"Yuji-san, take Yoshino-san and leave."

After saying that, she turned around and left.

……

Chapter 95: Transaction

It is obvious that the teacher was not telling the truth, or at least the actual situation must be different.

Otherwise, Yoshino Junpei would not have shown that unbelievable and angry expression.

But the other party is just an ordinary person at best, and should have nothing to do with the special-grade cursed spirit, so there is no need to waste time on him.

So, Yukinoshita Yukino didn't even think about talking to him, and simply let Yuji Itadori take Junpei Yoshino away.

"Oh, I understand." Yuji Itadori nodded, gave Junpei Yoshino a wink, and then pulled him away.

Junpei Yoshino, who was originally resistant to the two of them, followed Yuji Itadori without hesitation after seeing the annoying dean.

Instead of listening to his nonsense here and raising his blood pressure, it would be better to leave with Yuji Itadori and the others. It would be easier to deal with their questions.
