Chapter 69 The Sixty-nine Days of the Tool Man
seemed to see the look of shock on Hiiraeiji's face. Osamu Dazai looked at him funny, "Why are you so surprised?"
It was because he didn't do it in the main world, so he thought Is this a very difficult thing to do?
Hiiragi Eiji: "..." Isn't this surprising enough for him? !
According to the plot line in the real world, when Dazai Osamu was the age, Mori Ogai had just taken the position of leader for less than two years, right? How does this work? !
In order to calm down his severely stimulated heart, Hiiraeiji simply walked into the kitchen, took a glass of drinking water, raised his head and poured it into his mouth.
After one drink, he felt that he had regained some of his sanity.
Then, he heard Osamu Dazai say in a brisk tone: "However, I did drag Eiji down this time."
Eiji didn't react for a moment. He was still holding the empty glass with a blank expression. He looked at Osamu Dazai.
Because of him? What did he do? ! What on earth did he do to allow Osamu Dazai to directly kill Ogai Mori and take over!
"Because you are making a big move to purge the top brass in the magic world this time," Osamu Dazai said. "In order to be on the safe side, those guys from the official and special agents have extended an olive branch to the port mafia."
Hiiragi Eiji was even more confused. Well, the person who received this olive branch must be Ogai Mori. What is his relationship with Dazai?
"But," Dazai Osamu walked to him slowly. He consciously took out a box of fresh milk from the refrigerator, then took out the glass from Hiirai Eiji's hand, filled the whole glass with milk, and then acted Naturally, he stuffed it into the microwave and heated it up. "I knew this news in advance, so I cut off the source of the news. The news that the port mafia was recruited was only passed to me, and there was no further follow-up."
... in advance Got it? Eiji Hiiragi thought of Ango Sakaguchi, the spy of the Special Agent Division. It seems that he should be the source of information, right?
In this way, his clone did meet Sakaguchi Ango in the Port Mafia, but Oda Sanosuke was nowhere to be seen.
Although he was very curious about this matter and had inquired about it privately, everyone said that this person did not exist in the Port Mafia. This is another inconsistency between dreams and reality.
"So, you plan to cooperate with the government and the Special Agents Division this time?" Hiiragi asked hesitantly.
At this moment, the microwave beeped. Osamu Dazai took out the glass and sipped the heated milk.
"I am responsible for the rear command of this operation and will not let any fish slip through the net. But I cooperate with them, and they also have to pay me," Osamu Dazai said, with a milk stain on his mouth. He didn't care. He continued: "After this cleaning mission is over, the Supernatural Intelligence Division and the official government will unconditionally support me in becoming the leader of the Port Mafia, and will issue me a superpower license." At
this point, he tilted his head and looked towards Hiiraeiji said in an unclear tone: "Sure enough, they still want someone who is younger and seems to be more controllable to be placed in this position, right?"
His task is very simple, he only needs to command the operation during this time. It just needs to be eye-catching enough, but not so eye-catching at all. He must be excellent, but not too good. He must not make them feel that he is supporting a fool, nor can he make these people wary.
Dazai Osamu didn't take this level of control seriously.
Hiiraeiji: "..."
With the milk mark on his mouth, Hiiraeiji deeply agreed with what he said. Doesn’t it just look like he’s easy to fool at a young age?
Thinking like this, before Dazai Osamu could react at all, Hiiraeiji took out his mobile phone and took three consecutive photos of the big boy. After he was satisfied and recorded his appearance at this time, Hiiraeiji took a wet lick. The tissue wiped it for him.
...He was actually a little worried.
After all, the Port Mafia is not a good place. Although it is indeed a more humane large enterprise compared to the black organization, it is still a gray force after all.
But then I thought about it, the reason why he had such a bad impression of the Port Mafia in the real world was simply because of Ogai Mori. But in the dream, Ogai Mori was obviously about to be replaced by Osamu Dazai. That Port Mafia This is completely Osamu Dazai’s territory.
...That doesn't seem to be impossible? What's more, taking this opportunity, Dazai Osamu has completely connected with the official line, which is much more successful than Mori Ogai in the main world.
Thinking like this, Hiiraeiji's mood immediately relaxed, but there was one more thing he cared about -
"Do you need me to help you remove Mori Ogai from the position of leader?" Hiiraeiji asked calmly.
Dazai Osamu was stunned for a moment. He seemed to have failed to realize the meaning of Hiiraeiji's words. After two seconds, he said "Ah" in hindsight. When he looked at Hiiraeiji, his eyes were suddenly filled with emotion. On the bright light.
"Eiji, are you ready to help me?" Osamu Dazai asked in an incredulous tone. For his sake, could Yingsi do such a thing?
"Yes, if you have trouble over there, I will definitely take action. Or if you want me to take action first, that's fine." He said it very easily and naturally, and it didn't seem like he was discussing with Dazai Osamu how to solve Mori Ou's problem. This troublesome point seems to be asking Dazai Osamu for his opinion on whether to eat carrots or broccoli tonight.
Hiiragi Eiji is a little hard to understand. Is it any surprise? When a big boy is in trouble, he just watches without doing anything? That must be impossible. This is not the main world. In the dream, he has power. Now that you have the power, you naturally have to do what you should do.
It is naturally what he should do to remove the stumbling blocks on the way to usurping the throne.
Then, Hiiraeiji saw Osamu Dazai's shoulders trembling slightly.
"...Are you okay, Dazai?" Hiiraeiji was a little frightened by him. Could it be that there was something wrong with his body?
As a result, the next second, he saw Dazai Osamu suddenly raised his head. His expression did not look like something was wrong at all, but instead seemed to be suppressing a state of ecstasy.
"...Are you so happy?" Hiiraeiji asked him amusedly after being stunned for a second.
"I just didn't expect..." Osamu Dazai whispered.
But it's so good. This kind of Yingsi made it even more difficult for him to let go, and even the faint guilt in his heart dissipated a little.
"Eiji, when this matter is over, all the things you want to do will be completed, right?" Osamu Dazai asked in a hurried tone.
Hiiraeiji didn't expect that he would suddenly ask this. After thinking about it, he nodded and said: "Indeed."
After the high-level officials are purged, Gojo Satoru's wish should be completely fulfilled, right? He can say with certainty that after the official action, there is no room for the top brass in the magic world to turn around.
As for Xia Youjie...it should also count, right? Thinking this way, Hiiraeiji felt much more relaxed. It seemed that he was only one step away from taking Gojo Satoru out of the dream.
At this moment, Dazai Osamu's voice rang in his ears, "Then after everything is over, Eiji and I will go work together in the Port Mafia?"
Suddenly, his thoughts about the future were interrupted at this moment. , Hiiraeiji stared blankly at Dazai Osamu, whose eyes were full of expectation.
...But this dream is about to end. He probably couldn't accompany Osamu Dazai in his dream to continue working in the port mafia.
Thinking of this, Hiiraeiji hesitated.
It is true that he could easily accept Dazai Osamu's invitation, but under the gaze of the other party's bright eyes, he could not make such a perfunctory reply.
Just when Eiji Hiiragi was thinking about how to reply to the other party, Osamu Dazai spoke one step ahead of him: "Eiji, are you getting busy again recently?" After hearing
Osamu Dazai's question, Osamu Hiiragi subconsciously asked He looked around, only to find that his bandaged man had lowered his eyelashes and refused to let Hiiragi Eiji observe his expression at this moment.
Hiiraeiji sighed helplessly in his heart. He knew that this kid was smart and sensitive. He must have felt his hesitation just now. "Yes, I will be very busy in the next period of time. But it doesn't matter, I will still be like As before, I have prepared three meals a day for you. If I can't make it back, I will let my clone accompany you to eat together."
... Although this dream was really beautiful and gave him the illusion that all his wishes came true, But he still hopes to see Dazai Osamu in reality and live with him like now.
In response, Dazai Osamu just responded softly. Contrary to Hiiraeiji's imagination, there was no trace of loss or sadness in Dazai Osamu's lowered eyebrows. He was just simulating his plan quietly as usual.
Do you think the dream is coming to an end?
Impossible, Eiji. He whispered in his mind. After being completely purged from the top of the magic world, this is the core content of this 'dream' - after taking care of everything about the future for your friends in the main world, you won't have any worries anymore, right? Therefore, you will stay in this 'dream' from now on until you can no longer break away.
After Gojo Satoru returned home this time, he saw that person again.
A middle-aged man, wearing a well-dressed suit, always followed by several people when traveling. Some of them had sharp eyes, and it was obvious at a glance that they were combat talents, but one of them was a bit strange, he turned out to be an ordinary person without any spells. Some people had dull faces and followed that person like puppets on strings.
This man is one of the top leaders in the magic world, Nishiri Seiryu.
Why does this guy frequent the Gojo ancestral house?
This guy is weird. He is an existence that even Gojo Satoru's six eyes cannot see through. The core of this guy is empty, and he doesn't look like a living person at all.
...Is it a magic technique? A puppet-like technique. So, where is this guy's true body? But no matter which time, Gojo Satoru found no trace of Nishiri Seiryu's true form.
In this way, it is quite level.
After the current head of the Gojo family discovered that he had suddenly returned home, his expression was a little surprised, accompanied by a hint of nervousness.
If it were in the past, Gojo Satoru probably wouldn't have reacted, but it's different now. He once again thought of Jie and Yingsi sitting on the bench, the harmonious atmosphere between the two, and the secret between the two of them that only he did not know...
"What else? Are you hiding the matter from me?" Gojo Satoru raised the corners of his lips sarcastically.
His mood has become more and more unstable in recent days, but this is not a bad thing. At least, he is becoming more and more comfortable with the derivative applications of his techniques.
He did not persistently want to get any answer from the head of the house, but took a deep look at the direction Xili Qingliu left, and suddenly disappeared in the place where the head of the house called.
I've been to his house so many times, wouldn't it be rude of him not to meet him once?
Therefore, Hiiraeiji, who originally led Zhufu Jingguang and others from the Gojo family's ancestral home, was caught off guard and bumped into Gojo Satoru who suddenly teleported in front of him.
The white-haired boy stood directly in front of Hiiraeisi like this. Looking at his sudden appearance, Hiiraeisi was a little surprised. It was not that he was surprised to bump into him, but that he was surprised - he hadn't seen him for a short period of time. I am becoming more and more proficient in the application of techniques.
He still remembered that even two weeks ago, he was not able to use this teleportation move skillfully, but now, Gojo Satoru is already proficient in using it.
As expected of being the strongest conjurer, Hiiraeiji nodded happily in his heart.
Seeing the sudden appearance of the white hair, Zhufu Jingguang, who had been taken by Hiiraeisi as a guard, subconsciously wanted to draw his gun, but was stopped by Hiiraeisi's gesture, "Don't be nervous, Zhufu-kun, I know him. "
Hiiraeiji looked at Gojo Satoru with a smile on the face of Nishiri Seiryu, "You guys go back to the car and wait for me. It seems that Gojo-kun has something to say to me."
... It's strange that this person is not on the mission. After rushing back to the high school, he immediately returned to the ancestral home of the Gojo family. This time he came here and specially chose a day when Gojo Satoru was on a mission in the field. Unexpectedly, this brat's mission was getting faster and faster.
Zhu Fu Jingguang glanced warily at the white-haired boy standing lazily in front of him. The original sunglasses had obviously slipped to the bottom of the bridge of his nose, but he had no intention of reaching out to help him. Instead, he put his hands in his trouser pockets. He just looked in their direction with a leisurely attitude. This young man gave Zhu Fu Jingguang a very dangerous feeling, especially his demeanor at the moment, like a man walking on a tightrope, as if he would fall towards the abyss if he was not careful.
However, after receiving Hiiragi Si's order, Zhu Fu Jingguang had no choice but to leave with the others. Before leaving, Zhu Fu Jingguang lowered his voice and said to Hiiragi Si: "Master Xili, this person is in some danger. Please forgive me." Be careful."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Fu Jingguang heard a sneer from the young man's mouth. He was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that his voice was deliberately lowered so low that the other party could actually hear it. Such sensitive ears.
Hiiraeiji calmly patted Zhu Fu Jingguang's shoulder, "Don't worry, go to the car and wait for me."
When everyone had dispersed, Hiiraeiji asked: "Gojo-kun, why did you come to me specifically? Is it okay?"
Gojo Satoru stepped forward until the distance between him and Hiiraeiji was only about one meter, and he was able to stand still.
There is a big difference in height between Nishiri Seiryu and Gojo Satoru. He is also about seven or eight centimeters shorter than Hiiraeiji. However, at this time, Gojo Satoru is no longer as "approachable" as he was when facing Hiiraeiji. He is so condescending. Looking down at Xili Qingliu, "It's nothing, I'm just a little curious to see what kind of person it is that can select a person like Eiji and send him to a high school specially. On a certain level, I I have to say thank you."
Hiiraeiji raised his eyebrows. From Gojo Satoru's words, it is not difficult to see that at this age, his attitude towards the top management of the conjuring world was not as hostile as in the future, but there was a faint Exclusion.
"Do you think he is suitable for the job of a junior high school?" Hiiraeiji asked with a smile, "That's good. This kind of ability to choose is an ability that my class should have."
Gojo Satoru was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect what was happening before him. This man had such a good temper. What was even weirder was that he actually felt a sense of familiarity from the person in front of him.
...Is he completely crazy? Otherwise, why would I feel as if I saw Yingsi?
"It seems that his mission was completed very smoothly." Hiiraeiji thought of the progress bar of Gojo Satori's wish and sighed with some relief, "In this case, his mission in the high school is about to be successfully completed." After saying
this After saying this, he was surprised to find that the young man in front of him suddenly opened his eyes, as if he didn't realize what he was saying.
"...What do you mean?" Gojo Satoru suddenly asked.
Hiiraeiji was a little puzzled, "It means that after the mission is completed, of course he will leave."
However, after saying this, he found that Gojo Satoru's face darkened visibly, "Impossible. "
leave? Do these people really think that they can come and go as they please in front of him? Absolutely impossible.
At the same time, Gojo Satoru felt that the suffocation that had been permeating his body recently became more obvious. These people, one or two, always hide a lot of things from him.
Whether it's the guy named Nishiri Seiryu in front of him, his father, or Jie and Eiji, everyone is in the eye of the storm that he can't understand, and he is the only one standing on the periphery. .
He almost couldn't control himself and pulled open the collar of his uniform.
Looking at Gojo Satoru's appearance at this time, Hiiraeiji was speechless for a moment. Good guy, is this guy addicted to staying in a dream? !
When Hiiraeiji walked out of Gojo's ancestral house tiredly, Zhufu Jingguang, who was waiting at the door, immediately came up to him and asked, "Sir Niri, are you okay?"
Hiiraeiji's expression softened instantly, "Of course you are okay."
Fortunately, he didn't appear in front of Gojo Satoru and say such things to him under Hiiraeiji's shell, otherwise he felt that this guy was going to lower his favorability towards him again!
With this thought in mind, he clicked on his NPC panel, and Gojo Satoru's page appeared in front of him, still with a favorability score of 84 points.
…But wait, isn’t this font a little darker? Even under the cover of the gray-purple gauze, Hiiraeiji felt that his color had become darker.
Thinking of Gin's page, which was so dark that it was almost dripping with juice, Hiiraeiji's scalp felt numb for a moment. He quickly turned the information page forward, which belonged to his eldest son, Dazai Osamu. Seeing this, Hiiraeiji instantly breathed a sigh of relief. The color of Haodaer's information page was basically the same as Gojo Satoru's.
... He probably had the illusion that the color of Gin's information page was getting darker because of the shadow left on it.
Just when he was about to continue turning the page, Zhufu Jingguang's voice interrupted his next move, "Lord Xili, should we go back to Xili's ancestral home as planned?"
Hiiraeisi thought about it. Thinking about it, he nodded and said: "Go back." He came to the Gojo Satoru family just to inform the head of the Gojo family in advance not to participate in the mess of the next high-level officials, and the other two of the three families of the magic world, Hiiraeiji decided to go with it. It's natural.
...If they are so ambitious that they insist on running for election, he has no choice but to ask the Special Agents Division to deal with them all.
I heard that during this operation, they also found Fushiguro Shiji, the guy who attacked Riko Tenuchi last time. This guy showed an unprecedented interest in overthrowing the Zen family. He said that it didn't matter if the reward was less, and he could cooperate. Please participate in this mission.
Hiiraeiji felt that he probably just wanted to seek revenge from the Zen family.
But no matter how good it is, it can still be regarded as a fighting force.
In this way, all the plans went smoothly as planned by Hiiragi Eiji.
During this period, Hiiraeiji would receive a LINE message from Rei Furutani every day. Rei would always tell him in detail about Xia Youjie's performance at the Metropolitan Police Department, but his text messages were not as strict as writing a report, but more like Tell him all the information about Jay in a casual chat.
Hiiragi Eiji is very accustomed to this pattern, and he will respond positively every time. After all, in the real world, his relationship with Zero is like this.
As if she realized that he did not object to such exchanges, Fangtani Rei was completely relieved and chatted with Hiiraeiji for a period of time every day in his free time. Although the focus of the conversation always centered on Xia Youjie, but later on, The two always talk about their own things.
Zero: "Eiji, are you free this weekend? Do you want to come out and have a meal together? I found a very good barbecue restaurant with my friends a few days ago. If you are interested, let's go together." I
saw this After the message, Hiiragi Eiji was slightly stunned. Does this mean that...Zero already regards him as his friend? Otherwise, why would you invite him out for dinner? Or is there something going on with Xia Youjie that he couldn't explain clearly on LINE so he had to talk about it in person?
With such doubts, Hiiraeiji cautiously replied with a message.
Hiiraeiji: "Is there something wrong with Kei?"
I don't know why, but Rei Fukaya, who always replies to messages instantly, took a long time before replying to him. Even through the screen of his mobile phone, Hiiraeiji could tell from his message at that moment. I caught a glimpse of the other party's expression that was hard to explain.
Zero: "No...you misunderstood. Natsuyou-kun's performance has always been outstanding. This invitation is entirely out of my own wishes."
Zero: "By the way, the relationship between Eiji and Natsuyou-kun is that of teacher and student." That's right?"
Hiiraeiji's head was full of questions.
Eiji Hiiragi: "Yes. Because he encountered some troubles when he went on a mission before, so I subconsciously felt a little nervous about him... Sure enough, is my attitude too exaggerated?"
Zero: "Not at all, you He is the most responsible teacher I have ever seen."
Hiiragi Eiji's eyes lit up.
Rei: "Or do you have anything else you want to eat? We can go together too."
Hiiraeiji looked at the calendar and found that the high-level meeting happened to be scheduled for this Saturday, so he had to hate Rei Fukoutani's offer. invite.
Hiiragi Eiji: "But if I successfully complete the mission on the weekend, then when you are free next time, let's go out to have a meal together."
I hope he can stay in this dream world for two more days after the mission is over. sky.
He wanted to have a meal with Zero, he wanted to go to the Port Mafia to see if Dazai Osamu's new job was going well, he wanted to take the students to have a dinner together, he thought...
there were so many things he wanted to do.
Hiiragi Eiji sighed lowly.
Hope everything goes as he wishes.
Not long ago, Hiiraeiji conveyed the news of Nishiri Haruyu's upcoming retirement to everyone at a regular high-level meeting. Soon, the conjuring world was abuzz.
Hiiragi Eiji had no intention of procrastinating. He stated resolutely that he would convene a high-level meeting and set the meeting location within the Conjuring High School. Because this meeting will be different from previous large-scale meetings. Compared with regular meetings where only a few high-level officials are present, the upcoming meeting of Hiiraei Division will not be of this standard at all. He wanted to gather all people with backgrounds in the magic world and use illusions to select a small group of them who were suitable to survive.
The reason why he chose the High School as the location is very simple. There is Tianyuan's barrier here, and there will never be a safer or more secluded place than here.
Tianyuan's barrier also convinced the group of old guys who were unwilling to move, and they all expressed that they would come to Tokyo High School on time to attend this meeting.
Of course, Hiiraeiji knew why they were so active, but it was just to select the successor of Haru Nishiri on that day.
The arrangements for the day are very simple. Hiiragi Eiji will read out his abdication speech in the morning, followed by lunch time, and finally, the real highlight - in the afternoon, the selection of Haru Nishiri's successor will be held.
The top management may be extremely inefficient in other matters, but they have always been unambiguous when it comes to selecting successors.
Soon, time came to the day when Nishiri Seiryu officially abdicated.
When they went out in the morning, he and Osamu Dazai said goodbye to each other as usual. Both he and Osamu Dazai knew clearly that after this day, the fate of some people would change dramatically. .
And they are the leaders of these people's tragic fate.
On this day, the sky was covered with a layer of gray-purple mist, and then took on the unique darkness of a cloudy day. On the way to the high school, Hiiraeiji subconsciously looked at the sky several times.
No problem, the gray-purple mist did not erode the sky further, which probably told him that he still had time.
After arriving at the high school, Hiiraeiji saw his clone that transformed into Seiryu Nishiri. He simply released the clone and directly used a transformation technique to transform into Seiryu Nishiri.
All the students in the high school had left the day before, and Hiiraeiji went there in person. He went to the dormitory area to find students who had no assignments and told them in a calm tone that they should leave the high school for a while.
"It's best to come back on Monday morning." Hiiragi Eiji said.
The first, second, and third grade students were all very surprised, as if they didn't understand what happened.
Hiiraeiji was worried that what would happen next would scare them, and that the higher-ups would use these students as a shield due to his desperate situation. In order to facilitate the subsequent purge operation, Hiiraeiji chose to let the students leave this place of right and wrong immediately. land.
Because of their trust in him, even though the students were worried, they still obeyed his arrangements and left the high school one by one.
"Teacher Eiji, are you okay?" Haibara asked nervously.
Hiiraeiji smiled and shook his head, "Don't worry about me. It's just that the next thing is a little troublesome, but there is no danger. Don't worry, you can just come back normally on Sunday. School will still have classes as normal on Monday."
He was so calm. His attitude easily appeased these students.
...Fortunately, Gojo Satoru and Xia Youjie are not here, otherwise these two guys will definitely not be able to deal with it as easily as others.
After confirming Xia Youjie's location with Rei Fukiya again, Hiiraeiji felt relieved. Yes, Jie was taken to the field task force by Rei. It seemed that he would not come back in time.
As for Gojo Satoru... Hiiraeiji sighed deeply. He really couldn't figure out this guy's movement trajectory. Although he tried his best to choose a more remote mission location for him, Hiiraeiji could not completely guarantee that he would not be able to make it back.
The morning meeting went very smoothly, because it was just Hiiragi Eiji who delivered a speech about Nirisato Haruyu's retirement, so not many senior people came in the morning, but when it came to the luncheon, people started to arrive one after another. Continuously rushed over.
During this, Hiiraeiji painfully discovered that Gojo Satoru was following the head of the Gojo family, wandering around the banquet hall in a swaggering manner.
This resulted in Hiiraeiji having to create a clone and transform into Nishiri Seiryu again. Otherwise, if his body appeared directly, Gojo Satoru's six eyes would probably discover his secret.
Since it was agreed that he would fulfill Gojo Satoru's wish, he naturally couldn't let Gojo Satoru get involved in this matter. What's more, he now has no obvious hostility towards the higher-ups, although this guy seems to have become hostile to the Shark Man recently. He didn't care at all, but Hiiraeiji didn't want him to take action without any reason in this situation. Because this is a clear dividing line. Once you cross it, it will be difficult to shrink back.
"At this time, are you still unwilling to tell me what plan you have with that guy Nishiri Seiryu?" Gojo Satoru and the head of the Gojo family stood on the outside of the courtyard. From time to time, people paid vague attention to them, as if they didn't expect the head of the Gojo family. He actually showed up here with the next heir.
Gojo Satoru sighed helplessly, "Satoru, you will know the whole story tomorrow... no, tonight."
Gojo Satoru sneered at such an answer.
very good. Since they were determined to keep him in the dark, he must know everything.
At this moment, someone approached Gojo Satoru, and Gojo Satoru glanced at the person with his blue eyes.
Old man, I don’t know him. Who is this guy?
However, before that person could get closer, a figure appeared silently next to Gojo Satoru. His arrival was so sudden and weird, as if he appeared out of thin air. Even though Gojo Satoru made preparations for battle, he relaxed his tense body in the next second.
It was Nishiri Seiryu. He was still wearing a black suit. He did not look at Gojo Satoru. Instead, he looked at the old guy who originally wanted to get close to Gojo Satoru with a warning look.
The man was immediately frightened by him, and after hesitating for a few seconds, he left. When the man's figure became farther and farther away, Nishiri Haru looked at Gojo Satoru with an implicit reproach, "Today, you You shouldn't have come here."
Gojo Satoru's heart beat heavily again.
what happened?
Why did he feel that strong sense of familiarity from this person again?
He subconsciously used his six eyes to look around for the body that controlled the puppet Nishiri Qingliu, but once again, he failed.
"Leave here with your father. The afternoon meeting is about to begin. This place is no longer suitable for you to stay."
Gojo Satoru felt that everything was very strange. Why did this man seem to care about him in his words? Who is this guy?
What are these people doing now?
Everything has no answer.
Gojo Satoru felt a flame begin to burn crazily in his heart. Too bad, he was getting more and more curious, and he wanted to figure it all out more and more.
Is the 'Xili Qingliu' in front of me really Xili Qingliu?
After asking the head of the Gojo Satoru family to take away the troublesome brat, Hiiraeiji instantly exchanged places with his own clone using the Flying Thunder God. He sat at the top of the conference room, surrounded by a circle of high-level people in the magic world. .
"It seems that everyone has arrived." Hiiragi glanced around the crowd with a smile and finally said.
There was an obvious contempt in his tone, which made many people present frown. But considering that Nishiri Qingliu's temperament has become weird since he fell ill, and he will be officially laid off today, so no one raised any objections to his arrogant attitude at this time.
Anyway, this guy Nishiri Qingliu doesn't have a good life for a few days. Once he abdicates, does he really think he can live a good life after doing so many outrageous things during this period?
"Everyone is here, Xili." Someone said, "Now, can the election meeting begin?"
"No rush." Hiiragi Eiji said coldly.
Hearing this, everyone looked suspicious.
At the same time, the sky darkened.
The "account" on the first floor was put down.
The senior officials all noticed this, and someone immediately asked sternly: "What does this mean? Why did you put down the "account" in the high school? ! "
"What's the meaning? "Hiiraeiji looked at the speaker with a cold expression, "Of course I want to prevent you from walking out of this door alive. "
Chapter 70 The Seventy Days of the Tool Man
"What do you mean? Naturally, it means to prevent you from walking out of this door alive."
As soon as these words came out, the entire conference room fell into a deathly silence.
At the beginning, no one realized what these bloody words meant.
But soon, someone stood up emotionally, and his actions seemed to represent the opening of this death baptism. In the next second, countless sharp wooden thorns broke out of the ground.
When Eiji Hiiragi walked out of the conference room with Nishiri Haru in his shell, Ango Sakaguchi, who was waiting outside, came up to him. Behind Ango Sakaguchi, there was a heavily armed public security team on standby.
After seeing him, Eiji Hiiragi was a little surprised. He didn't know what the Special Agent Division was doing and why he sent a scumbag like Sakaguchi Ango to such a dangerous place.
"I am Sakaguchi Ango from the Special Agent Division." Sakaguchi Ango took out his work ID and confirmed his identity to Nishiri Haru, "Is everything going well, Nishiri-sama?" He asked cautiously, and Sakaguchi Ango's eyes inadvertently caught his
eye. After scanning the inside of the conference room, the member of the Special Agent Section wearing a rust-colored suit looked away as if he was electrocuted.
Just looking in through the gap in the shoji door, he also caught a glimpse of the cruel scene - he saw someone being penetrated through the chest by something like wood, and his thin body was hanging alone in the air.
Hiiraeiji raised his eyebrows, "It
went very well." Sakaguchi Ango was silent for a long time, and finally asked: "So, are there any survivors among this group of people?"
Hiiraeiji laughed, "Of course." He deliberately kept it in his mind. Those with the most vulnerable lines of defense are the subjects of torture by the Supernatural Special Agents Section and the Metropolitan Police Department, striving to enable them to understand the world of magic as quickly as possible.
Sakaguchi Ango took a deep breath and said, "Then, according to the mission instructions of the Supernatural Agent Division, I will take over the conference room."
Sakaguchi Ango's superpower is the theory of corruption. He can read the memories left on objects. It seems that the Supernatural Intelligence Division is also very cautious and does not want to miss any information from the senior officials.
This is also good. At least after the magic world is officially taken over, with this serious treatment, the entire magic world will not be stagnant for too long, and it will probably be operational again soon.
Thinking of this, Hiiragi Eiji smiled apologetically at Sakaguchi Ango, "Sorry, I didn't know that the Special Agent Division had such arrangements. Otherwise, I would have made the scene more beautiful."
Sakaguchi Ango subconsciously said He lowered his head and felt a strong sense of oppression.
"Then, I'll leave it to you to integrate the information in the conference room, Sakaguchi-kun."
After saying that, Hiiraeiji raised his head and glanced at the sky. The gray "account" was placed perfectly as he had planned before.
This was set up by a very outstanding junior member of the Xili family. The effect of this "tent" is that no magician inside is allowed to enter or exit.
Hiiraeiji asked the junior of the Nishili family to nail the nails that stabilized the "tent" in a very hidden place. He believed that the senior management trapped by him would not have the ability to escape.
What's more, the superpower agents specially sent many superpowers here this time, with the purpose of besieging and killing the magicians trapped here.
And within this "tent" that restricts the free access of the magician, there is actually a second layer of "tent". The effect of that barrier is slightly different from that of the first "tent". It allows anyone to enter, but once the magician enters, he cannot leave. The people trapped in the second "tent", They are all guys who need to be executed by the Special Agents Division.
All those who were expelled into the second-level "tent" were also on the death list.
Families that did not come to attend the meeting but had inextricable connections with the top management would be completely controlled by Osamu Dazai and his people.
Regarding today's purge in the magic world, whether it's Hiiraeiji, the Special Agents Division, or the Metropolitan Police Department, they are all very calm. Anyway, these high-level officials usually don't go out on missions. They are all good at internal fighting. If they are retained, they can't be counted on. So it's better to just take care of them, so as to prevent them from not doing their job and instead thinking about making trouble all day long.
It would be better to find a way to quickly improve the benefits of existing magicians, and then apply the training methods of magicians to official schools to cultivate more and more professional talents.
Presumably in the near future, officials will organize a large-scale population screening to bring together all qualified people to see if they can bring a wave of fresh blood to the magic world.
Where else? In addition to the old guys in the conference room, there are also juniors who were brought here to participate in the election. They don't have to be as unlucky as their old bones. Hiiraeiji only needs to use genjutsu to confirm whether they can survive.
In this way, Hiiragi Eiji stepped on the stone road, passed through the torii gates built on the steps one after another, and slowly walked towards his destination.
The superpowers of the Superpower Special Agent Section controlled people very well, and Hiiraeiji quickly completed his mission. The qualified ones were kept, while the remaining ones were driven into the slaughterhouse of the Special Agents Section.
Just when Hiiraeisi felt a sense of calmness settling down in his heart, a stern-faced police officer suddenly walked quickly in the direction of Hiiraeisi.
"Sir Nishiri, the head of the Gojo family said that Gojo Satoru broke in before the barrier here was completely lowered." The police reported the news to Hiiragi Eiji in a serious tone.
In order to prevent people within the barrier from transmitting information to the outside world, the Metropolitan Police Department completely cut off the signal from the High Commission before carrying out the mission, so that no one inside could contact the outside world. Therefore, there is no way for the head of the Gojo family to contact Gojo Satoru by phone. As a magician, he also cannot enter the "account" and can only let others deliver the news for him.
Hiiraeiji's originally calm expression suddenly shattered, and he looked at the policeman in disbelief.
"...Comed in? What about the others?"
The police officer also looked very uneasy, "We have sent people to search all the areas within the first layer of the barrier, and no trace of Gojo Satoru was found. Presumably... he probably entered We're in the second level of the barrier."
Gojo Satoru felt that everything in front of him was beyond his cognitive scope.
...Why would there be non-magicians killing magicians in the "tent"?
Are these normally aloof guys so weak and vulnerable?
Although the people who did it didn't look like ordinary humans, the disastrous defeat of the conjurer still made Gojo Satoru find it a bit difficult to understand.
He knew something was bound to happen today, everyone's body movements reminded him of this.
He asked everyone around him about the outstanding mission, and Glass and the lower grade students went to Ginza. It was said that Eiji had persuaded them to leave the night before.
Gojo Satoru's own mission also came very strangely. Apart from the fact that it was farther away and the curse was slightly stronger than the ordinary one, there was nothing special about it. It was clearly not urgent at all, and there was no need to speed up the process. , but he was sent to a high school a few days ago.
After dealing with the curse, he rushed back immediately. As expected, everything around him was full of doubts.
He understood the relationship between Nishiri Seiryu and Eiji, so he was not in a hurry to contact Eiji. No one wanted him to know the truth, but he wanted to know it all.
So, after the "tent" was lowered, Gojo Satoru left his father who had no time to react and rushed directly into the "tent". Luckily it wasn't the delayed visual effects type, otherwise he might really have missed it.
Soon, Gojo Satoru realized something was wrong, because another layer of "tent" dropped where he landed. He didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, he jumped directly onto a thick treetop. He just stood on the branch and quietly watched everything happening below.
...Is this the truth? Purge the top brass in the magic world? A coalition of outside forces?
His expression was indifferent, and he had no intention of saving anyone. Instead, he was playing with the gun in his hand. When he first arrived here, he found this dark weapon lying on the bluestone floor, so he picked it up. .
Is this what Nishiri Seiryu has been planning all along?
And just then, he was discovered. He had no way of hiding himself, so it was only natural that he would be discovered.
Gojo Satoru jumped down from the tree casually. Following his movements, the Slaughterer surrounding him subconsciously showed a wary look.
"Honestly, I don't have any emotions about killing you." Saying this, Gojo Satoru raised his right hand.
But at this moment, something strange happened again. A figure suddenly appeared next to Gojo Satoru. Just like this morning, Gojo Satoru was approached again without any precautions.
Nishiri Seiryu, who was wearing a straight suit, smiled gently at the people around him: "Sorry, it was an accident that this child broke in. Your cleaning task here should be over. Please go to the next location. Just like that
, an invisible storm was invisibly resolved by this man who suddenly appeared.
But Gojo Satoru did not feel relaxed. Instead, he felt that his temples were beating violently.
"...What are you doing here?" Gojo Satoru asked in a deep tone.
Hearing a low sigh from the man, he answered his question in a calm voice: "Because your father is very worried about you, Gojo-kun. Next, I will send you to your father." The tone was
businesslike, businesslike. words.
"Is this your purpose?" Gojo Satoru had no intention of leaving at all.
Nishiri Seiryu showed a somewhat embarrassed expression. Finally, he said: "Don't be willful, Gojo-kun, the current situation is not suitable for you to participate. You already know the purpose of this action, and your curiosity is satisfied. You can leave."
Who are you deceiving with this tone?
Gojo Satoru took a deep breath to suppress his emotions that were on the verge of exploding.
Why are you looking at him like a brat? It seems that he has never been treated as an independent and mature individual. He was extremely resistant to such gazes.
Because Eisi has always been like this. He has always been surrounded by so many unsightly guys who are looked at by him with such eyes, and he is just one of them.
He felt inconsistent again.
The thread of reason was almost broken, but the more this happened, the more Gojo Satoru dared to make bold assumptions.
This inexplicable sense of familiarity, this look that made him both familiar and disgusted, and the inexplicable behavior of the person in front of him. He obviously sounded businesslike, but his actions clearly showed that he didn't care about him. And... this guy's identity has never been discovered by himself -
"I want to know the truth, the truth about your true identity."
Hiiragi Eiji was stunned for a moment, what do you mean?
Although he had doubts in his heart, Hiiraeiji still didn't show it on his face. He just kept a formulaic smile, "Don't you know? I am Nishiri Haru. Aren't you ready to leave with me?"
Gojo Satoru smiled suddenly. With a sound, his tall figure swayed twice.
"Nishiri Seiryu?" He repeated the name and slowly looked at Hiiraeiji, "No, I don't think you are."
Hiiraeiji's brows jumped.
"You seem to still care about me?" Gojo Satoru said again.
Hiiraeiji smiled, "Children seem to like asking questions like this. Didn't I tell you? Your father asked me to take you back."
At this moment, Hiiraeiji noticed that he took out something from behind his back. Pulling a gun, the white-haired boy with a smile on his face pointed the gun at Hiiragi Eiji.
Hiiraeiji looked at Gojo Satoru with a somewhat numb mood. Did he just hit this kid's sore spot? Why do his mood swings become so intense?
...Should he tell the other party that pistols are actually very difficult to use? Without professional training, the ballistic deviation will always be so large that it makes people feel ridiculous.
He suspected that even if he stood where he was, with the current distance between the two of them, Gojo Satoru wouldn't be able to shoot him.
I hope I won't make this brat crazy when the time comes.
"Does that mean you don't care about me?"
Hiiragi said with a smile.
Gojo Satoru nodded at his silent answer.
"It's really strange. I feel like my mind has never been as clear as it is now. I seem to have figured out a lot of things suddenly." There was a sense of joy in his tone that was incomprehensible to Hiiragi, "Let's take a gamble, 'Sili "Qing Liu, let's take a bet to see if you are lying."
Did you not care about him as described in your words?
...Is this the person he suspected?
Just when Hiiraeiji had no idea what he was talking about, Gojo Satoru suddenly made an action that Hiiraeiji didn't expect. He didn't shoot at Hiiraeiji, but - he put the black muzzle of the gun against him. On his own temple, Fu retreated a little distance.
The muzzle of the gun came into contact with Gojo Satoru's skin without any hindrance. Hiiraeiji immediately realized that this guy had canceled the "no lower limit".
But...wait? ! What is he going to do? !
Hiiraeiji's eyes widened instantly. At this moment, his sluggish nerves finally realized that this guy was not going to -
"Bang", a gunshot rang out.
The moment the gunfire rang out, thick tree roots surged out from the ground, and Hiiraeiji disappeared instantly and appeared in front of Gojo Satoru.
He felt that his heartbeat had stopped. He never expected that things would speed towards such an outrageous situation!
However, after Hiiragi Eiji came back to his senses, he was shocked to discover something. His wooden escape, just like his preset, directly separated the pistol that was close to Gojo Satoru's temple, but he... He failed to catch Gojo Satoru's hand. Before his hand was about to touch Gojo Satoru, it was blocked by an invisible force - "No Lower Limit" was turned on again at some point.
At the same time, a hand clasped Hiiraeiji's wrist forcefully, "You lied." Gojo Satoru's voice rang in Hiiraeiji's ears.
Because of the height difference, Hiiraeiji felt like he was shrouded in a black shadow.
Hiiragi Eiji looked up at the white-haired boy with his eyes widened. At this moment, he had a wanton smile on his face, and his blue eyes casually glanced at the tree branch next to his cheek.
"As expected, it's you, Eiji."
Apart from Hiiragi Eiji, there is no other person who can use such weird moves.
However, Hiiraeiji felt that his head was going to explode because of this guy's series of operations.
What was that just now? ! Deceive him to turn off "No Lower Limit" first? ! And then opened it again at the moment of shooting? !
Because the distance was calculated, even if he tried to block the bullet with his hand, it would pass through him and hit Gojo Satoru's head? So, this guy must have been planning to trick him into using Wood Escape from the very beginning!
Otherwise, if he fired from such a close distance, even if he tried to block the bullet with his body, he would be able to hit both targets.
Hiiraeiji, who understood Gojo Satoru's inner journey, was so angry that he wanted to punch him. At the same time, he was shocked by this guy's intelligence.
...How on earth did he come up with such an outrageous and crazy plan in just a short moment! Just to test his identity? !
After figuring this out, Hiiraeiji, who was carrying the shell of Nishiri Seiryu, had no choice but to exchange places with the flying thunder god and the main body, and then he released himself.
As the clone disappeared, Hiiraeiji, who appeared in front of Gojo Satoru, instantly gained the memory of just now, and anger instantly surged into his heart.
Just when he was about to have an attack, he looked up and met Gojo Satoru's eyes that contained surprise.
"How did you do it, Eiji?" Gojo Satoru looked at his empty left hand. He had clearly grabbed the wrist of 'Sari Haru' just now, but it suddenly disappeared from his hand. There was almost no gap, Seri Haru. Lyu instantly transformed into Hiiragi Eiji. And that empty shell-like existence just disappeared, replaced by the person Gojo Satoru was most familiar with.
Hiiraeiji raised his hand and rubbed his throbbing forehead, sighed heavily and then explained: "It's my ability. But it doesn't matter anyway, right? What about you? What's going on with you? What on earth were you losing your temper about just now? ?"
As Hiiraeiji's voice fell, the air became stagnant again.
He noticed that Gojo Satoru's emotions began to run in an extreme direction again, and the obvious manifestation was that his blue eyes were staring coldly at Hiiragi Eiji.
Seemingly finding Hiiraeiji's question very interesting, Gojo Satoru sneered, "I also want to know, what are you hiding from me? Why do you want to become like Seri Seiryu? You are the one who planned all this today, right? ? What do you want to do? Do you want to overthrow the magic world? And then - leave from here?"
As one question after another was asked, Gojo Satoru's originally restrained tone became worse and worse, until at the end he had With a gloomy meaning, he grabbed Hiirai Si's wrist again, with such strength that even Hiirai Si was a little surprised.
...Is that what he actually thinks?
After thinking about his actions, Hiiraeiji felt something was wrong for a while.
Indeed, when he transformed into Seiryu Nishiri, he once told Gojo Satoru that he would leave after completing his mission. So, did such words misunderstand Gojo Satoru... Thinking like this,
Hiiraeiji's mood became It became complicated, but at the same time, he was curious about a question, so he was not eager to explain Gojo Satoru's question, but asked: "Originally, you shouldn't notice all this, but why did you do it?" Are you aware of it?" He was puzzled.
Hiiragi Eiji has been doing a very good job of concealing himself. None of the other students were aware of his plan, and even Xia Youjie was deceived by him.
His original idea was that he would clean up the top management of the magic world and then slowly reveal the changes in the magic world to everyone. By then, Xia Youjie must have been on the right track, and he would probably be disappointed with himself. There will be a more in-depth judgment in the future, and then it will be the time for him to complete his mission.
But now, everything has been disrupted. Gojo Satoru knew what he was doing in advance. So, will the dream be ended in advance?
After listening to Hiiraeiji's question, Gojo Satoru also questioned himself in his heart. Yes, why? Recalling all the past events, he suddenly understood.
Because he had been watching this person, watching his every move, trying to find out everything about him, and because of his obsession, he came here step by step.
Realizing that Gojo Satoru seemed to be unable to recover, Hiiraeiji could only sigh and decided to answer this guy's question.
"Everything I did," said this, the face of the light-haired young man was stained with obvious helplessness, "aren't it all for you?"
Gojo Satoru, who was originally immersed in chaotic thoughts, suddenly opened his eyes. , "...What do you mean?" He looked at the person in front of him blankly.
Why for him?
But just such an inexplicable word made Gojo Satoru's heart beat violently in his chest.
Although he had no idea what was hidden in it, he liked the words.
Not for other things, not for other people, but just for him, that's why Eisi was able to do something as crazy as he did today. reason? It doesn't matter, he just likes this unique feeling.
At that moment, the low pressure that had always surrounded Gojo Satoru suddenly faded away, and the fire that burned his nerves also dissipated.
He finally understood what he wanted, which was just something unique. He doesn't want to be treated the same as everyone else, he just wants to be the most special one.
What he has always found difficult to accept is that he is not the most special one in the other person's heart.
The originally chaotic situation was completely cleared up at this moment, and Gojo Satoru finally understood what the crazy emotions in his heart were - he wanted Hiiraeiji to focus solely on himself, just like he did with him.
"Eiji, I am the special one to you, right?" Gojo Satoru asked in a tone of sudden realization and excitement.
Hiiraeiji was a little speechless for a moment. After calming down for two seconds, he stated impressively: "In this world, you are indeed." Because Gojo Satoru is a person trapped in this world, and his mission is to lead him Leave this illusory dream.
At that moment, Hiiraeiji saw tiny rays of light flowing in those blue eyes.
"Gojo Satoru's favorability +15"
"Congratulations to NPC Hiiraeiji for successfully defeating the main character Gojo Satoru."
Hiiraeiji was slightly startled. He looked at the childish guy in front of him with amusement. Then, he tentatively said: "Satoru, you I have fulfilled all your wishes. Now, aren't you going to wake up?"
Gojo Satoru entered a strange pure white space.
He clearly remembered that he fell into a coma because he accidentally touched a book. In this strange space, his consciousness was awake from beginning to end.
But no matter what he tried, he couldn't leave this place.
There is a transparent wall in this space, which allows Gojo Satoru to see clearly what is happening in the outside world, but it does not allow him to come into contact with reality. He can only watch the outside with a complete God's perspective.
He originally thought that he only needed to have a dream, but he never expected that he would be watching the dream about Hiiragi Eiji here.
Yes, he originally thought that it was Hiiraeiji who entered his dream to wake him up, but the development of things was beyond his expectation. It was him who fell into a coma and came to Hiiraeiji's dream. What's even stranger is that , he has no contact with reality at all, just like a bystander, he can only watch the events in the outside world quietly from a place outside the world.
...If Hiiragi Eiji's wish is really to protect the important people around him, then in his current state, how can he help the other person fulfill their wish and escape from this closed space?
Should it be said that it is something specially selected by those rotten oranges? It really trapped him here.
But soon, Gojo Satoru had no time to think about these things, and fragmentary and illogical dream scenes came to him.
