Chapter 263 About Anger
Gojo Satoru subconsciously closed his palms.
The pile of ashes was not blocked by Wu Xixian, but fell through his fingers and disappeared like the wind, without leaving even a trace of ashes.
He opened his eyes slightly.
"This... this..." Ijichi jumped up from the sofa in shock, looked at me, then looked at Gojo Satoru, pointed at the place where the ring originally rested, and stammered, "Gojo... Miss Gojo, how come..."
I was speechless, so I lowered my head, pressed my palms on both sides of my cheeks, moved the corners of my mouth, and smiled bitterly.
really.
Gojo Satoru maintained his original expression and posture, like a motionless handsome statue.
Light from the floor-to-ceiling window on the balcony in front of him on the right flank shone in and fell on the side of his face, casting a light shadow.
The heavy curtains were not completely opened, and the dim light was mixed, and the silver hair made it almost impossible to see the expression.
The snow had not yet finished falling. A loud bird call was heard outside the window, and a dark shadow passed by quickly and fiercely, breaking the silence in the room.
"Ms. Gojo." Ijichi was the first to speak. He looked at me helplessly, "Is this ring......"
Is there something wrong? Is there anything strange? Is there something fishy?
Yes, that's right, that's right.
"Ichichi." Gojo Satoru opened his mouth, but the words he said interrupted him, "You go back first."
"But......"
"No buts." He stared at me with his unblinking blue eyes and said without hesitation, "You have nothing to do here."
The instructions given were very clear.
Ijichi paused for two seconds, sorted out the information he had brought from the general manager's office, cast a worried and anxious glance at me, and then quietly left.
I don’t know what Gojo Satoru wants to say.
I actually want one more person to stay, or even more.
Although I'm not sure, he is angry with me. I secretly think that if there were someone else around, he might be able to restrain himself a little.
"Anyway." He opened his mouth, still looking calm, "Wu-chan, let's go back to Yumenjiang first."
"Do we have to go back?" I frowned and said with a little resistance, "I think it's great here."
I don't like that cramped and enclosed space.
There is no sunshine, no flowers, no flowing wind and water vapor, and no breath of life.
There is only the terrifying loneliness that accompanies the death of hundreds of thousands of souls, as if being exiled from the whole world.
Even though I know that Gojo Satoru is with me, most of the time...most of the time, I feel dull and depressed which is difficult to dispel.
I hated that place as much as I hated any piece of land that bound me.
"Right here," I insisted, "if you must."
"Okay." He didn't waver and said quickly, "In that case, let's not talk about it for now. You can go to the prison gate."
"......." I could only continue to ask, "You are angry, why?"
"You don't want to know." He said, "So, how about just listen to me and go back to Prison Gate?"
“I want to know,” I pressed. “If you’re really mad at me, I need to know why.”
"Knowing why, what use is there to you?" He pulled up the corner of his mouth imperceptibly, as if mocking himself.
"Of course it helps, Wu." I blinked and explained in a low voice, "I have to know where I offended you so that I can apologize and make amends."
"Apologize?" He looked over and asked in an ambiguous tone, "Apologize for what? You're almost dead, and you're still thinking about how to apologize to me?"
Me: “............” I really couldn’t respond to what was said.
"Okay." I sighed, "Since you don't want to talk about it, forget it."
"No, I changed my mind." He stood up and took a step forward. His tall figure just covered my entire body. "You want to talk, then let's talk."
"That ring," he said, suppressing his emotion. "You already knew it."
"what do you know?"
“When it disappeared, you didn’t look surprised at all,” he said. “You looked like you had expected this outcome.”
"I......"
"But it's very strange, Wu-chan." He tilted his head and held his chin in confusion, "You don't even know what color it is. I let it slip before that you can't even tell the difference between dark green and sapphire blue, but you are so sure."
"It's really weird~"
"that is because......"
"There are also the teachers' dormitory and lounge in the technical college." He didn't even give me a chance to explain. "They are full of dust, just like here."
"I have always been very, very curious. What on earth could one see to be so shocked that one would vomit blood?"
My eyes widened.
“Right.” He laughed. “That’s the expression you make when you’re truly surprised.”
"Your acting skills are so bad." He complained to me like a spoiled child, "With such poor skills and abilities, do you still want to be in the entertainment industry?"
I took a step back.
His attack came suddenly and quickly, without any preparation, like a violent wave, and was completely beyond defense.
He took a step forward, and neatly grabbed my arm that was retreating, curled his fingers inward, and lowered his head to look at me in an unavoidable manner: "In fact, you have long felt that death is not a big deal."
"That kind of attitude really annoys me."
"Whether it's giving birthday gifts or finding a ring," he said, "it's just to stabilize my emotions and make people happy."
"Do you think that I can bear anything? So leaving someone to die without any scruples is acceptable to me?"
"I never said anything like that!" I tried to break free from his hand, but he held it tightly.
There was no other way, so I could only communicate with her in this extremely oppressive manner: "I just felt that you were having too much trouble, and I wanted to help you share some of the burden or something."
"Excuse me, you are wrong." He said mercilessly, "I don't need you to help me eradicate the termites in the world of magic, and I don't need you to sacrifice yourself to pave the way for me. Damn it, I didn't even expect you to stay in the world of magic so that I could see you."
"Don't you understand?"
"........"
"Yes, you really don't understand." He took a deep breath, "Your brain works slower than the hibernating turtle in the pond of the technical college, but your heart is surprisingly cold."
That's a bit insulting.
"What do you want me to do?" I said. "This is the only thing I can do."
"If you don't need me to do this, then I'm useless."
From the first day I left home and entered society, I knew that people who are of no use will be quickly abandoned.
This was the only thing I was willing to give away in exchange, but he said he didn't need it.
"Don't you know what I want?" He nodded, took a step forward, pressed my shoulders against the back of the sofa, and said calmly, "Well, I'll tell you clearly, I want you to be alive."
"No matter where in the world, no matter how far away you are, or in another world, I hope you can survive." He paused, "You must survive."
"You are cursed."
"Yes, I am cursing you."
"You can't do this to me." I couldn't help but retort, "You didn't do this to Jay, why do you do this to me?!"
"Don't mention Jay to me," he said coldly, "Your situation is different."
"I don't see anything different!"
"If Jie and Nitro were here, they would definitely be as angry as I am." He said, "That's the difference, do you understand?"
"......No, Jie and Nitro wouldn't do that." What the hell is he saying? It's totally unclear what he's trying to say.
Gojo Satoru said nothing.
"Anyway." I paused for a few seconds, still trying to ease the atmosphere, "You get up first."
"It hurts me a little."
"......." We looked at each other and he was defeated.
"Now you're talking about this." He muttered, stepped back a little, and gently withdrew his hand, "What were you doing earlier?"
I looked up at Gojo Satoru, my eyes full of confusion and puzzlement.
He was about to speak when there was a sudden knocking sound outside the window. Through the glass and the wind and snow, I saw Geto Suguru, Fushiguro Shinobu, and Nozomi standing on a white bird with flapping wings, looking over here.
"Just when I mentioned them, they showed up." He smiled expressionlessly, walked to the window, unlocked it, and said coldly, "Come on, let them all see that you won't get angry."
