Chapter 13 Outside an unknown chemical factory 

in Yokohama 

Huh——? 

After Gojo Satoru got closer, especially after pulling down his sunglasses, he realized that something was wrong with the blond woman in front of him. 

I remember when we met at the airport two days ago, she was a real ordinary person, right? Not to mention the magic power, there is not even the residue of the magic power that would appear on ordinary people. 

Normal people will have mood swings. If negative emotions accumulate for a long time, they will naturally form the residue of the curse. 

At that time, Gojo Satoru was deeply impressed by the "cleanness" of Angelica, so at this moment, when he saw the light blue magic power gradually surging on her body, he felt uncomfortable for no reason. 

Not only because her unique personality suddenly disappeared, but also because... at her age, she has magical power... and if she awakens some inexplicable abilities... her life will probably become a mess. 

"Ahem - if you don't want to be blown up, I advise you to stay as far away from this place as possible." 

"I won't save you just because we are acquainted -" 

Exploded? 

Is it what I think? 

Angelica was worried that she had no clue as to the source of the explosion, but she didn't expect that this white-haired man actually took the initiative to send useful information. 

But...how did he know? 

"Blow up?" 

In order to be a good mascot, Angelica dressed up today. Although it is not so exaggerated as to prepare a special dress - after all, the dress and the orphanage are like two different worlds - the hair is carefully done, the makeup is designed, and the clothes are also specially matched. 

Compared with when I flew back in a hurry, it was more than a little more refined. 

She raised her head and looked across carefully. The street around her was moving slowly, and Angelica realized that she hadn't completely stopped yet. 

This guy just came up to me while the car was still driving? 

There was no shaking or swaying at all, it was almost like it was a part of the car. 

"What does this mean?" 

Angelica stepped on the brakes and pulled over. After pulling on the handbrake and confirming that everything was correct, she wanted to open the car door and have a good chat with the other party. 

However, before that, she raised her hand and looked at her watch: there was still an hour and a half. 

There is still an hour and a half left before that horrific explosion. 

Similarly, there are still one hour and fifteen minutes until the ribbon-cutting event of the orphanage begins. 

"Well -" Gojo Satoru touched his chin without smiling, "You want to know?" 

"I'm sorry - I didn't plan to tell you!" 

He raised a hand and put it in front of Angelica. , raised his index finger and waved it in front of her eyes. 

What a helpless character. 

Angelica shook her head secretly, but her eyes naturally followed his hands and gradually extended to his body: I ​​have to say that his appearance alone is quite intimidating. 

It’s also a look that makes people unable to do anything about it. 

When those blue eyes hidden behind sunglasses looked over with a playful look, Angelica finally had some idea that he was a real teenager: just because of his extraordinary height and afro hairstyle. , paired with a pair of sunglasses that keep strangers away, you are just like a social youth! 

Only when those eyes are exposed and the light is constantly flashing and rippling in them, can people feel his youth and innocence. 

Angelica once had the same pair of eyes, which were never stained by the secular world or defeated by the trivialities of life. 

But...now...fine lines have gradually begun to appear in the corners of her eyes. 

Time achieves the purpose of making human beings grow by repeatedly engraving it. 

"Pfft-tsk-" 

When Angelica's eyes moved to the familiar neck of the other party, the nonsensical dream she had had the day before yesterday suddenly appeared on her own, making her laugh out loud. 

"Hey——!" Gojo Satoru frowned and moved closer, as if he wanted to see Angelica's true expression, "Why are you laughing?" 

"Sorry." Angelica tried her best to slide her eyes away from him. The Adam's apple moved away, but the smile at the corner of his mouth became deeper and deeper under the impact of waves of memories, "I just thought of interesting things." Interesting things ? 

Ah! 

Gojo Satoru dared to use his six eyes to guarantee that the funny things this guy thought of must have something to do with him! 

……etc……! 

Isn't that an ordinary dream? 

Right! 

This guy now has magic power... Although it is as weak as a candle in the wind and may be extinguished at any time, but... no one has ever said that a magician with low magic power cannot have magic! 

Maybe the dream that day was entirely her handiwork! 

hateful--! This woman! 

Gojou thought about it, and felt that he finally found the reason why he was so shameless in the dream. He was angry for a moment, lowered his head and glared at Angelica fiercely. 

... 

! ! ! 

what is that……? ! 

"What's wrong with you?" When Angelica opened the car door and walked out, Gojo Satoru also lowered his head and stared at her. Just because of the height difference between them, he couldn't glare into Angelica's eyes, but instead glared at her chest. 

Bang! Bang! Bang! 

Gojo Satoru suddenly took three steps back like a frightened cat. If there were ears on the head, I would probably have mediocre airplane ears. 

Seeing the shocked look on his face, Angelica, who was begging for help from him, naturally had to show concern in a timely manner. 

...This guy...what is he wearing...! 

Gojo Satoru gritted his teeth for a moment. He didn't know why, but he felt like he was being teased at that moment. 

"Is there something wrong with my face?" 

Angelica raised her hand to brush the hair on her temples and turned her head slightly to look at him. 

She was wearing a dark purple suit, and in order to avoid being too rigid, she wore a white V-neck shirt underneath. 

It's obviously just a very ordinary combination, but because of its girth, the simple suit also reveals a different kind of charm. 

If we want to talk about the finishing touch, it is undoubtedly the silver necklace she wears around her neck. The thin metal chain spread from her slender and long neck to the collarbone, and finally with a special arrow-shaped pendant, it was hidden on Angelica's chest. 

Gojo Satoru felt hairy all over - this woman can actually scare me! 

"No - there is -!!!!" 

"Get away now -!" 

Gojo Satoru decided not to take a step closer to Angelica again. He waved his long arms irritably, not so much as wanting to put her away. Angelica drove away, rather trying to get rid of all her messy thoughts. 

"Wu..."

Just as Gojo Satoru was dancing, another familiar teenager walked out from the alley opposite the chemical factory.

He was still smiling and had a slightly crooked bun.

Although it is indeed rude to think this way...but...I really want to tidy up that hair ball and make it stay round and round at the back of my head.

"Did something happen?"

"Ah, hello, you were the one who was at the airport at the time... Long time no see."

Xia Youjie walked over unhurriedly and nodded to Angelica first. Then he leaned closer to Gojo Satoru and poked his head around: "You look like... you just got punched hard by someone."

Ha!

You got it again!

Gojo Satoru glared angrily at his hapless companion.

Xia Youjie responded with an innocent wink.

"Although it's a bit presumptuous to interrupt your communication, I have a question." Angelica found that the thing that troubled her most was not the boy's crooked head... but the floating figure behind him. In the air, something huge, like a ghost and a monster, asked, "What is that behind you?"

No wonder something like this happened to me... It turned out to be because I live in a world that science cannot explain. In the world...

haha.

All the doubts have been solved.

Angelica gradually began to understand everything. "

Huh?"

Ah. "

Curse spirit? "

Angelica looked at the mysterious floating object again and again, and finally looked up at the clear and clear sky: under such a blue sky, there was such a fantasy-like creature.

It really makes people feel extremely unreal.

"Now?" She captured the key point in Xia Youjie's words, "In other words, these things were also there when we were at the airport last time?"

Xia Youjie didn't answer, just shrugged slightly, looking helpless. .

Angelica recalled the scene at that time: There was indeed a moment, as if the white-haired man ordered everyone to step back, and the dangerous area was suddenly cleared.

At that time, she was still wondering, when did humans' reactions become so fast?

The people at the scene who retreated at that time also looked like they didn't know what was going on... they were staggering around.

Now it seems that it was probably the other party who used a so-called curse spirit invisible to ordinary people to give everyone a hard push.

Forget it.

Angelica sighed, she had always had a taste for mystery.

"Wu...wait a minute..." Xia Youjie obviously came here on some mission. The huge curse spirit behind him arched his back with his head. The two sides seemed to have exchanged something, "You are responsible for [Account] 】Why haven’t you set it up yet? "

...Ah...um...hum...!"

Gojo Satoru wanted to glare at Angelica again: That guy suddenly came out to disturb me... I was shocked!

"There is indeed a problem with this chemical plant, right?"

Angelica listened to the fragmented conversation between the two parties and reluctantly pieced together the whole story: these two teenagers with special identities should have accepted some kind of task. That’s why I came to Yokohama and arrived near this chemical plant with a clear purpose.

According to the meatball head, they might be guarding against something.

"How should I put it... I have an intuition about this."

"In about an hour, it will explode."

As soon as these words came out, the two teenagers were surprised at first, and then soon showed a look of understanding. They looked at each other: Is this her technique? Foreknowledge?

However, Gojo Satoru was still worried about that dream, so he always felt that what Angelica said was not true.

...But...judging from the intelligence reports we received...

there is indeed something wrong with this chemical plant.

"To tell you the truth, there is indeed something wrong with this chemical plant."

Compared with Gojo Satoru, who seemed to be repelling Angelica after his hair was fried, Xia Youjie was much gentler.

Taking into account the other party's current situation, he believed that Angelica would become a member of the conjurers sooner or later, and there was no need to keep this mission secret, so he explained it to Angelica.

"As you can see, there are many, many curse spirits like this behind me lurking inside."

"The intensity varies, but the number is huge."

"At the same time, they are still nurturing a guy with terrifying strength."

" In order to prevent a powerful curse spirit from being born and harming society, we came here specifically to find a way to nip it in the cradle."

The other party said it easily and casually, as if he had already been accustomed to this kind of life.

But the more Angelica listened, the more she felt something was wrong: "Because I don't know much about curse spirits and so on... But, is your so-called power enough to raze this whole neighborhood to the ground?"

If so, this kind of name The cursed spirit thing is too scary.
