The temperature plummeted, and the dry cold air entered the nasal cavity with the breath, making people's brains stiff from the cold.

Xia Youjie was standing outside the teacher's office at the moment. He was wrapped up thickly and wore a fleece hat, only his eyes were exposed.

The reason was that before he and his mother came to the college to discuss the matter of dropping out of school, he sneezed with an itchy nose.

She casually touched the clothes on Xia Youjie's body, and her expression changed abruptly: "How can you wear such thin clothes!"

……

Then he changed into his current costume.

With his hands crossed and his back leaning against the wooden outer wall, he could vaguely hear his mother's extraordinary calmness and Teacher Noctua's retreating weakness in the room.

Don't think about anything, don't worry about anything, just wait quietly for the good news.

This feeling……

Great.

The lips hidden under the turtleneck sweater pursed into an upward arc, and the brows were filled with the long-lost calm after breaking free from the shackles.

The cold wind from the sky swept over the dead leaves on the roof, spun several times in the air, and fell unsteadily in front of him.

Xia Youjie even picked up the dead leaf in a good mood, pinching the petiole and rubbing it back and forth until it turned into a conical shadow.

Suddenly, chattering voices came from the stone road in the distance, fluctuating high and low. The speaker seemed to be very happy, but the person who responded to him was not interested.

The voice sounds a little familiar, is it someone from a lower grade?

Xia Youjie looked up inadvertently, his pupils suddenly dilated, his fingers loosened, and the dead leaves fluttered to the ground.

"... Huiyuan?"

Hui Yuanxiong, who was talking with Jianren Qihai, suddenly felt something, and looked at Xia Youjie precisely.

Qihai also noticed it, looked over together, and then frowned—who is this weird guy who is completely wrapped up, and why is he in a high school?

Although he was vigilant, the companions around him jumped up excitedly.

"Senior Xia You!" Hui Yuan was extremely excited, and rushed over, "You're back!!"

Nanami Hitomi Earthquake: How did you recognize it? !

Xia Youjie still maintained a shocked expression, staring blankly at Huiyuan, who ran over and whispered excitedly: "Senior, did you just come back today? Are you here to report to Teacher Ye Mo?"

"Huiyuan...?" Xia Youjie didn't answer his question, but took a step forward and grabbed his shoulder and looked carefully from top to bottom before confirming, "It's really you."

Huiyuan let out an "ah" and scratched his hair embarrassingly: "I also worried the senior at the time, right? Senior Anna saved me, but because I wanted to surprise you, I didn't make a special call."

With both hands behind the back, a naive smile appeared on his face: "But I haven't seen Senior Xia You since I came back, what a pity."

The joy in my heart because my companion was still alive suddenly froze, and was replaced by helplessness that could not laugh or cry.

...Hiding the news of not dying is to surprise?Where did the bad idea come from?

Xia Youjie sighed: "Who told you to express surprise in this way, Wu?"

After all, this kind of thing seems to be what Gojo Satoru can do.

Unexpectedly, Haibara denied it.

"At the time, I also felt that this kind of thing was very similar to Gojo-senpai's style, but it wasn't him." Huiyuan raised his face, like a well-behaved little animal, "It's Senior Anna."

Xia Youjie: "..." I'm not surprised.

"But Senior Anna saved me anyway, so it doesn't matter if I do what she said, and I'm also quite interested." Huiyuan rubbed his head and laughed, "I wanted to see Qi Haihai cry in surprise. In the end, he was super calm and even got scolded."

Qihai, who came with Huiyuan, complained, "Who would cry."

Huihara: "I thought you would."

Qihai: "Impossible!"

Xia Youjie looked at the scene where the two were bickering with each other, and smiled sincerely: "Then did you express your thanks?"

Huiyuan nodded heavily: "Yes!"

Then he hesitated and said: "Later, I wanted to solemnly express my gratitude to Senior Anna, but Senior Gojo said that she left... Does Senior Xia You know where she has gone?"

"..." Xia Youjie was silent for a while, "It should be...go home."

"Is that so? That's great too. I can go home. I haven't been back for a long time. I've been so busy recently." Huiyuan foolishly agreed.

Xia Youjie just smiled softly when he heard the words, looking at the fallen leaves in the courtyard being pushed by the wind, he suddenly asked, "Is Wu him alright?"

"...I don't know." Haibara said blankly, "When I saw Gojo-senpai that day, he seemed to be in a bad mood, but it's normal to see him a few days later."

"Really." Xia Youjie said lightly.

"Ah! Speaking of which, Senior Xia You, did you tell Senior Wutiao about your return? He has been very worried about you!"

Xia Youjie froze for a moment, then took out his cell phone from the inside of his clothes: "I completely forgot...ah, it's turned off due to power failure."

There was no need for a phone in these three days, so I didn't even think about checking the power of the phone.

Inexplicably, Xia Youjie's thoughts ran a long way - even if he noticed, there was nothing he could do, he had gone to another world, even if he wanted to charge, there should be no corresponding charger?

"Then senior wants to call Wutiao senior?" Hui Yuan interrupted Xia Youjie's trance, raised his mobile phone, his eyes sparkled, "You can use my mobile phone!"

Xia Youjie took the phone and said gently, "Thank you."

Haibara: "Please don't be polite!!"

……

……

Gojo Satoru casually wiped out the curse spirits rushing up, and walked in the large abandoned building with no expression on his delicate face.

Jay has been missing for three months.

In another three months, the group of rotten old things above will list him as a defector and issue a wanted order.

crunch.

Stepping on a shriveled can, it made a unique metallic sound.

"Ah, so annoying..."

He hooked the corners of his lips indifferently, and continued to walk deep into the building.

The sudden ringtone of the mobile phone rang in the empty corridor. He looked down and saw that it was Hui Yuanxiong who escaped from death three months ago: "Is there something wrong?"

However, the voice on the other end of the phone was something he never expected——

"Wu, I'm back."

"...Jie?" Wujo Gou listened to the male voice on the other end of the phone in a daze, "You..."

At the end of the corridor, the curse spirit attracted by the bell rang and rushed towards Gojo Satoru. He clicked his tongue impatiently and said to the phone, "Where are you?"

"At the high school."

"Okay, I'll go over immediately."

Hanging up the phone, Gojo Satoru directly used He to completely clear the entire corridor, stepped on the shattered embers of the curse spirit and quickly went deep, changing his lazy attitude a few minutes ago: "Sorry, I'm a little busy now."

In less than 5 minutes, all the curse spirits in the entire abandoned building were wiped out, and even the auxiliary supervisor was not waited, and he directly used the newly developed long-distance teleportation to return to the high school.

"Jay!"

Appearing in the courtyard of the high school in an instant, Xia Youjie was chatting with Hui Yuan, when he saw him, he raised his hand and waved: "Enlightenment!"

Gojo Satoru stared at Xia Youjie's face closely, opened his mouth to say something, and noticed the latter's strange clothes in the next second, his original serious expression suddenly turned into a burst of laughter: "Hahahaha! What kind of dress are you wearing! Old man !"

Xia Youjie didn't break the defense at all: "This is heavy maternal love."

"Oh, it's quite scary." Gojo Satoru teased, the smile on his face gradually faded, "Where have you been these three months, are you okay?"

As early as when Wujo came to his senses, Huiyuan and Nanami waved away, and there were only the two of them here.

"Actually, there are only three days in my memory." Xia Youjie sighed, "I didn't know until I came back. I have been away for three months since I was here."

Gojo Gojo subconsciously fiddled with the diamond-shaped button with his hand in his pocket, and said calmly, "Really, it's only been three days."

He tilted his head and smiled, "I'm going to her hometown. How do you feel?"

Xia Youjie said helplessly: "...It's a terrible place, but the people there seem to have some kind of obsessive love for that land."

"I didn't ask you this." Gojo Satoru pulled out his hand and pointed to his chest, "After going to that place, do you still think the same as before?"

Even though three months had passed, Gojo Satoru never forgot that Anna called to say that Xia Youjie planned to massacre the villagers.

she……

Never lie.

"I don't know." Xia Youjie's mentality was much more stable than before, "But I won't do that for the time being."

She was right, he hadn't thought about what to do after it was done, especially—

If the companion gave birth to a normal child.

Do you want to force your companions to kill your own children?

"Temporary?" Gojo Satoru bit the word, his tone unclear, "Okay~ that's fine, I'll keep an eye on you."

Xia Youjie: "It's okay, I'm already planning not to do the task, and I will stay with my family during this time."

Gojo Satoru: "Huh?"

"I originally planned to drop out of school directly." Xia Youjie let out a foul breath and smiled heartily, "But after discussing with my family, I think I should get a diploma anyway, in case I want to go to university in the future? So even if , but I won't do any more missions."

"...University exam?" Wujo Satoru was shocked.

"In case, after all, I might not be a magician anymore." Xia Youjie didn't feel that he had said anything shocking at all, but instead teased Gojo Wu's reaction, "There's nothing surprising about that."

No.

The fact that a master conjurer decided to quit and go to university is surprising in itself.

Gojo Satoru let out a long "hiss" and sighed sincerely, "It's really scary."

Xia Youjie just smiled and didn't speak, Wujo Wu also became quiet, and stood with him in the corridor watching the wind blowing the fallen leaves in the courtyard.

After a long silence, Xia Youjie suddenly asked, "Are there any other questions besides this, Wu?"

The slender white-haired boy didn't even cast his gaze, but said in a calm tone without any fluctuation: "There is nothing more to ask."

"Aren't you going to ask her?"

"..." Gojo Satoru pressed the tip of his tongue against his palate, and his blue eyes behind the sunglasses were deep, "Only you are back, why should I ask?"

"Is there a quarrel?"

"Well, it's serious." Gojo Satoru thought for a while, and confidently threw the blame away, "It's because of you."

Xia Youjie suspected that he heard it wrong: "...what?"

"She took you away, I was very angry and said a few excessive words. She was also very angry, not only scolded me, but also kicked me." Gojo Satoru muttered, "It hurts so much. "

"Not only that, you also injured her arm." Xia Youjie said firmly.

"Wow, how did you know that?"

"Because she said that the doubling is still on me." Xia Youjie didn't understand why he was involved in the matter between them, "To put it bluntly, I am the most wronged."

Gojo Satoru didn't feel guilty at all, and commented decisively: "It's really capricious."

Xia Youjie: "What right do you have to say that!"

After a pause, he added: "You guys are just half-baked."

"I don't agree." Gojo Satoru was not very emotional, "At least I won't just run away without a trace."

"..." Xia Youjie turned his gaze into the distance, "You actually have a way to find her, right?"

Otherwise, it would be impossible to talk to him calmly.

The hand that was rubbing the rhombus button paused, and Gojo Satoru looked down at the evenly lined wooden floor without making a sound.

"Whatever, it's between you two." Xia Youjie sighed softly and complained, "Don't implicate me next time."

Gojo Satoru didn't talk about martial arts and started to evade: "Well, let's talk about it next time?"

Xia Youjie: "..." What a scumbag, Wu.

At night, Gojo Satoru folded his hands behind his head, and the naked eye could not see anything in the pitch-dark environment, but Six Eyes could see the remaining traces of the mantra flowing in the building.

Like blue-purple fish dishes with strange shapes gathered everywhere.

"It's strange, I can't sleep." Gojo Satoru pressed his chest in distress, his heart beating rapidly, as if warning of something unreasonable about to happen.

tick.tick.

The hands of the clock began to jump slowly.

11:59:03...

11:59:34...

11:59:57...

Three seconds later, the pointer moves back one space, and the three hands point to 12 at the same time.

At the same time, Wujo Wu's brain suddenly suffered severe pain, and a strange memory flooded into his mind instantly!

……

……

It was already 12:05 after Xia Youjie cleaned up the sundries in the room, and was about to go to bed, when suddenly a human face appeared outside the window!

Subconsciously summoned the curse spirit to stand in front of him, and took a closer look: "... Enlightened?!"

Withdrawing the curse spirit, he opened the window and let Wujo Wu in: "What are you doing here so late..."

Before he finished speaking, he was hugged by someone.

"...Enlightenment?" Xia Youjie hesitated, and patted him on the shoulder, "What happened?"

Gojo Satoru's mind was in a mess.

In the short 5 minutes of rushing over, the memory of Xia Youjie massacring the villagers and defecting from the magic world flashed for a while, and the memory of Xia Youjie returning from another world and temporarily giving up on destroying ordinary people flashed across.

It wasn't until now that Xia Youjie stood in front of him intact that he smiled deeply: "That's great, Jie."

Xia Youjie asked questions all over his head, "What's wrong with you?"

Gojo Satoru didn't intend to explain, but just said to himself: "The note was left for nothing. 'I' didn't take it to heart at all. Fortunately, the result is good now."

Xia Youjie: "???" What are you talking about?

Letting go, Gojo Satoru took a step back, looked at his best friend and said, "I have something to ask her, so I came here to say goodbye to you."

"...Don't think about it, I won't help you with the task."

"I didn't intend to ask you to help." Wujo Wu looked at him with Xia Youjie's completely incomprehensible eyes, "You are responsible for taking a good rest."

"..." Didn't stalk him?Xia Youjie became more vigilant.

"Anyway, see you later."

The ice blue eyes are as clear and translucent as gurgling water.

Then, the diamond-shaped buttons were crushed.

……

It should have disappeared immediately.

But the powder fell to the ground, and he still stayed here.

Nothing happened.

……

Gojo Satoru gradually restrained his smiling expression, lowered his head suddenly, and stared blankly at the ashes on the ground.

The memory turned uncontrollably to that day, he asked——

"Will this thing fail?"

"Yes, it will be invalid if I die"

……

The off-white powder gradually became transparent, disappearing into the flowing air as if it had never appeared before.

Suddenly, a strange smile surged from the bottom of his heart, making him want to laugh out loud.

……

yes.

That's right.

……

"Enlightenment?" Xia Youjie vaguely sensed that his mood was a bit wrong, "What's wrong with you?"

"Haha...hahaha..."

The strongest boy covered his face with his hands, laughed in a low voice, and ran his fingers along his forehead to push back the hair that was blocking his eyes, revealing a pair of dark and deep blue pupils.

"fine."

The smile widened and widened, and there was a terrifying smile in his tone, low but sharp.

"I'm fine." He repeated.

Suddenly, the horrified smile seemed to be wiped off his face by a pair of invisible hands, and it turned into expressionless indifference in an instant.

The bright eyes that are clearer than the sky seem to be sinking in the depths of the sea at this moment, it is pitch black and there is no light.

"She's dead."

Leaping forward, a silver-white stream of light flashed past Xia Youjie's eyes, and instantly disappeared into the night.

The author has something to say: Brother Jie knows that she is not dead, and will tell Gojo Satoru.But Wujo Satoru also knew that Anna never lied, she said that it must be true only if she died, so the two views would form a tension in his heart.
