II: Lily of the Valley
Chapter 115: When Will it Stop.
Brother Suguru: Shoko, my superhero!

＊＊＊

Black as thick as ink poured down from the dome, covering most of the high school.

When she saw the "curtain" fall, Shoko felt vaguely that this exchange event would not end well.

Tokyo Jujutsu High School was hidden in a barrier by Master Tengen. The curse power inside the high school would be collected inside the barrier. The barrier that surrounded the high school was the "curtain". Dropping "curtain" inside "curtain" was superfluous.

The premise was that this was for the internal staff of the High School. It was necessary to put down the "curtain" on the intruder.

Sure enough, after a while, someone came to her infirmary.

Black bricks and tiles spread out under the blue sky. The little blond girl from the Kyoto School was sitting on a broom. There was one hanging on the broomstick, and another lying on the girl's shoulders, stumbling towards the infirmary.

This was not about opening the door, but opening the window.

"Brats of this age can fight with each other, no matter how minor or serious." Shoko lowered her eyes and opened the window. She stroked the gray fox that she caught and petted on the way to work today.

The incoming call notification on the mobile phone placed on the table rang. Shoko picked up the mobile phone and slid open the answer page. The little blond girl flying in the air entered the infirmary with two big boys on her shoulders. There were two colliding sounds. The heir of the Kamo family and Toge fell to the ground like two mallets, and the little girl collapsed on the ground and gasped for air.

She had lost too much cursed energy and physical strength in the previous battle with Nobara. Now, carrying two guys at once, plus her own weight, it was still too difficult for her to move in the air with her cursed energy and physical strength.

After the call ended, the long-haired woman in a white coat touched the fox's furry head twice, removed the phone screen from the ear, and said casually, "Something happened."

The fox, who was lying on the table with his big tail curled up and letting his former classmate petted him, raised his eyelids, and the golden light fell into the deep purple pupils.

The senses of small animals were more developed than humans. Although they were not as extraordinary as Yayoi and Toji, his intuition told him that someone from the Jujutsu Tech was here, and the person was definitely not the type to pay a good visit with gifts.

The warm sunlight reflected on the fox's black and gray fur, giving it a light golden color.

He didn't feel any comfort in his heart. Instead, he was drumming vaguely, and an ominous premonition lingered in his heart.

Suguru raised his limbs and swung his tail in a circle, trying to dispel the discomfort that filled his heart.

*knock—* *knock—*

There was a knock on the door of the infirmary, Suguru paused, and Shoko frowned.

The coldness that filled the heart and spleen overflowed from the crack in the door. The infirmary was eerily quiet. The little girl who was panting also held her breath forcibly. The invisible fear pressed down so heavily that the spine was almost broken.

*swich—*

Momo watched helplessly as the woman in a white coat opened the drawer, and with a lazy expression, she fumbled in the drawer a few times, took out a box of cigarettes, and took out a cigarette from the box.

Momo: ???

The situation outside was obviously not optimistic, but the female school doctor's reckless behavior made the tense nerves soften instantly.

The cigarette was lit, and the red sparks were as bright as torches in the smoke. The choking smell of cigarette filled the room. The woman with long brown hair sat down on the only swivel chair in the infirmary, holding her index finger and middle finger. She smoked a cigarette and crossed her legs lazily. Looking at this skillful movement, she looked like a long-time smoker.

Momo thought at an inappropriate time that according to outside rumors, the school doctor who was proficient in Reverse Cursed Technique and Satoru Gojo graduated from the same class. The little girl thought of the obscure white-haired strongest sorcerer at the exchange event, and she could only say that she was indeed a student of the same class.

The gray fox lay down again, and his dark purple eyes were like a cold pool filled with ice water, getting colder and colder.

Shoko put out the sparkling cigarette butt in the ashtray, then slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, "You're already here, why don't you come in and sit down?"

"Ouh." The gray fox lying on the table stared at the closed door of the infirmary.

Momo stared at the closed door, the cold sweat on her forehead sliding down the outline, and her hands unconsciously got into the long handle of the broom.

*click*

The person outside turned the door handle, and the person who came pushed open the door of the infirmary. His narrow eyes narrowed into curved fox eyes, and he greeted as before, "Hi, Shoko, long time no see."

Whether it was Satoru as an adult or Suguru as an adult, the physique was stronger than that of the boy at that time. The bones of a boy in adolescence were stretched thin, and the muscles and many bones grow at a speed that always makes him feel a little thin. After adulthood, the bones were finalized. The muscles have grown accordingly, and if now they were required to wear the uniforms of high school students, they would definitely not be able to wear them anymore.

Even with the loose cassock monk clothes, it was not difficult to see that this guy had not neglected to exercise even after becoming a monk. After all, Suguru had always been a fan of individual martial arts.

Shoko ignored him and took out a cigarette from the cigarette case again. She bit the cigarette holder with her teeth and pulled it out.

The choking smell of cigarette once again filled the infirmary.

"Your way of greeting has really not changed." Shoko held a cigarette in her mouth and said in a teasing tone, "What? How dare you invade the high school and actually come to hang out with me, a doctor?"

Shoko smoothed her bangs, the trees outside the window were rustling, the light golden sunlight reflected on her fair and smooth forehead, and the smile on the female school doctor's face was half mocking and half joking.

"Why don't you go and chat with Gojo?" Shoko said with a half-smile, "He has a lot of things to talk about with you."

Even though he knew that Shoko didn't mean well in his words, the other person was not angry. He smiled as warmly as ever. It would be no different if he put on another costume and said that he was the neighbor's big brother.

"I have no intention of talking to him for the time being." The person in front of her said with a smile, "After all, you know his character, right? It's quite troublesome."

The gaze that fell on him became colder and colder. The female school doctor's eyes looked at him without any waves from beginning to end. Her eyes subconsciously focused on... the fox?

It was freezing, the weather in September, but it seemed like ice would form. The fox's eyes were as bright as polar ice.

"When did you start keeping pets?" The guy who stole someone else's account and used it for himself smiled nonchalantly.

"This is raised by the little redhead's brother." Shoko exhaled a puff of smoke, her eyelids drooping, "I just took a few to pet off."
Keeping a pet was such a hassle. A laborer with no rest had it enough every day, so she didn't want to cause trouble for herself.

Geto the Fox: "..."
This tone sounded like a scumbag who was casually toying with innocent girls.

After the taste of the cigarette rolled around in her throat for a few times, Shoko exhaled a puff of rich smoke, filled with golden sunshine, which dispersed in the air.

The other person's expression did not change, and Shoko's face also showed a lack of interest. Sitting under the window sill, Momo tightened her grip on the long handle of the broom. The sorcerer's intuition told her that this person was an enemy, and that he was very strong and definitely not something she could handle.

Curse user?

"Keeping pets is good for your physical and mental health." The other person smiled, "At least it can help you smoke less."

"Yes." Shoko held the smoking cigarette butt, moved her lips, and murmured.

The regrets of school days would stay with you until you die.

Not to mention Shoko herself, those two idiots must have left a lot behind.

Shoko rolled her eyes and glanced at the guy opposite who was smiling leisurely and contentedly.

"In the first year of high school, I wanted to laugh at him," Shoko said.

Kenjaku paused, and Suguru's eyebrows moved.

"Actually, human beings are all the same creatures, whether they are sorcerers or ordinary people." Shoko held a cigarette in her mouth, "Ordinary people will breed cursed energy because they cannot control the leakage of cursed energy."

"But the sorcerer can't." Shoko sat on the swivel chair with a lazy posture like a salted fish. "Ordinary people breed cursed spirits because of curses. Sorcerers can't breed cursed spirits, but they can curse and kill other people in a more direct way."

"Why do you think the sorcerer is a hero?" Shoko smiled, "All the guys here are not good people."

The fox lying on the table looked at Shoko motionless, his eyes seemed chaotic and clear.

Kenjaku on the opposite side laughed, "Did you notice?"

"You have been exposed in front of Gojo, and you still expect me not to know?" Shoko smiled half-heartedly, the sparks of the cigarette in the corner of her mouth was bright.

The fox opened his mouth, wanting to say something. There were too many things he wanted to say, but when he reached his lips, no words came out. He and Satoru were not the only ones who had regrets in the three years of high school. So was Shoko, and so did Yaga-sensei.

An apology?

It's useless to apologize now, right? Those things have long become the curse to the bones, entrenched in everyone's heart, and they could not get rid of it throughout their lives.

The fox opened his mouth, and the words came to his mouth.

"Smoke less." Kenjaku followed the body's instinct and suddenly spoke. After the words came out, he was stunned for a moment.

Shoko smoothed her hair twice, drooped her eyelids, and suddenly laughed. Her face was very beautiful, her eyebrows were soft, and her long hair was smooth. However, the smile that suddenly appeared on her face made her look ferocious, "It's none of your business if I smoke, you bastard!"

Suguru who had become fox, who had been trying to kill the impostor with his eyes, covered his heart with his little paws. With this pounding feeling, he swore that he had never thought Shoko was as handsome as he was now.

#Shoko, my superhero!#

"Don't make irresponsible remarks to me in front of that male mother. What annoys me the most in the three years of junior high school is the virtue of this old woman!" The female school doctor's tone was so cold that she seemed to be falling out of her skin. She worked overtime for several consecutive days. The irritability accumulated over the course of the day fell away in an instant.

Geto the Fox: "..."
In three years of high school, he has worried so much about you, but in your hearts he was just a male mother?

Kenjaku: "..."
Although he gave birth to ten children in a row, this was something he did not expect.

Before the expression appeared on his face, Shoko simply removed the cigarette holder from her mouth and put it out in the ashtray. With a powerful voice and a strong momentum, she said, "Little redhead, flatten him!"

The torn air let out a harsh scream, the fragile window frames let out an overwhelmed wail, and the fierce wind roared in. Shoko turned sideways, and a telephone pole flew past her face. The person who threw it aimed at the impostor standing at the door.

The shattered glass splashed in the golden sunlight, and the wall cracked with tiny cracks like fishing nets. Then it collapsed and cracked. The room temperature silently dropped to the freezing point, and the moisture in the air condensed into ice cubes. The ice block spread to the top of the electrical box that was thrown. The originally fast-moving telephone poles were buffered and their speed slowed down.

Shadows silently shrouded the top of the head. Momo subconsciously looked up and saw a red-haired woman with one foot on the miserable window frame. The fingers of her other hand were bent into claws and pressed against the pitiful wood. The amber eyes seemed to be filled with ice, the brutal and domineering attack method, and the heavy aura that enveloped the surroundings made her think for a moment that a female lion was climbing up.

She jumped up, and her movements were as sharp and ferocious as a beast with strong limbs. She punched the telephone pole frozen by the ice. The ice blocking the advancement of the telephone pole shattered again, and the ice blocking the front of Kenjaku completely shattered, and the clattering sound was like ema hanging together and playing in unison in the wind.

Brutal, unreasonable, and most effective.

The fluttering dust on the wall fell, and the golden sunlight fell diagonally into the infirmary from the big hole. The telephone pole ran across the entire corridor, broke through the wall, and smashed into the trees next to the infirmary. The dust was kicked up in the lush greenery. The tree crowns were ups and downs, rolling all the way, and the two people who had no lower limit were disgraced by the telegraph poles that were suddenly thrown in.

A large hole was instantly opened in the wall that separated the corridor from the infirmary, and the coldness flowed outside through the new passage.

What kind of women were these?

After meeting a savage Nobara, Momo once again refreshed the influence of Tokyo School girls. If Nobara was the kind of savage who went her own way, the savagery of this woman who suddenly broke in was close to that of a beast, with wildness carved into her bones.

And why did that telephone pole look so familiar?

Wasn't this the telephone pole she just saw outside the infirmary?

She actually removed the telephone pole directly! This woman was even more exaggerated than Todo!

There was a person with shoulder-length hair wearing a monk robe in the corridor. The freezing mist rose and fell, and the person's cold eyes were on Yayoi.

Kenjaku patted the ice crumbs and dust on his cassock and said, "I have told you before, she is difficult to deal with."

If he really wanted to dig deeper, the most difficult thing for a cerebral person like him was undoubtedly an intuitive creature like Yayoi. The brain circuit lacked traceable rules and was full of puzzles. At the same time, it was terrifyingly strong and intuitive. It was that ambiguous thing again, so it was difficult for him to predict Yayoi's actions.

Even if he predicted it, he could only grasp a rough idea. She knew that with her sense of smell and hearing, she could catch his traces, and she also knew that if he really went to Shoko to do something, Yayoi would definitely find him, but he didn't expect how she would break in. For example, he didn't expect that she would just dismantle the telephone pole outside and throw it in.

"You can handle it yourself." The white-haired monk said coldly. He understood that the purpose of this trip was not this redhead, but the other person insisted on dragging him along.

Kenjaku shrugged and spread his hands, "I can't use cursed technique. Once I use them, people will notice."
Forget it if it's someone else, if Satoru Gojo found out and came to visit, then all plans would be aborted.

Yayoi's five senses were like a different kind of Six Eyes. Kenjaku was certain that she would be able to detect the traces of 'Suguru Geto' and look for it all the way. Her strength was not inferior to that of Suguru. If she was allowed to confront Hanami, it would not only be Hanami who was in trouble, but also Mahito who was looking for Sukuna's finger in Cursed Warehouse would be affected.

If Jogo had not provoked Satoru, he would not be facing a shortage of manpower now.

"Hold her." Kenjaku said, his eyes moved around, and finally fell on the fox with fried fur on the table. He smiled softly, "I have a few things to confirm."

The back was arched, the deep purple eyes stared at him, and a low roar came from the mouth of a beast.

Bone-chilling frost poured over his head, and the temperature in the room suddenly dropped to freezing point, or even below freezing point.

"Ice Formation · Icefall"

Kensuo glanced at the expressionless Uraume. It seemed that this guy was planning to kill them all.

Like a falling waterfall, it condensed into clear ice, winding all the way. The dilapidated infirmary instantly turned into an ice cellar, and the coldness that penetrated the heart and spleen spread in the September weather.

The densely packed ice edges compacted into a huge ice wall, and the sharp top like a spear pierced the ceiling. All the way up, the whole building let out a heavy wail, the wall collapsed, and the wall dust fell, and the reinforced concrete supporting the corridors was broken.

*clang—*

Crisp as if the hammer forged by a blacksmith had settled, the golden chain smashed into the huge ice wall. When the ice wall shattered, the person on the other end was unscathed.

"Barrier enchantment?" Kensuo saw the chains rising from the ground, rising and gathering like the iron bars of a birdcage.

The old monster who was proficient in the enchantment technique could tell at a glance that this enchantment had nothing to do with Tengen's enchantment technique. Tengen's enchantment focused on "hiding", otherwise they would not have been able to break into the high school so easily. However, the focus of this barrier was on "protection". The rushing ice waterfall seemed to have hit a pull-down gate and could not move forward. It looked like there was an ice cover in front of it.

The ice cover suddenly shattered, and cold ice cubes splashed and fell under the September sky.

There was a black sword in Yayoi's hand. The sword was not out of the sheath. The black scabbard was covered with a thin layer of frost and snow. The white-haired monk subconsciously raised his hand to block, and his arms were covered with a thin layer of frost. The thick frost, acting as armor, made crisp sounds together. The frost and snow covering the arms cracked, followed by a clear sound of bone cracking.

Uraume was pulled out directly by her.

*boom—*

The frost-covered wall was broken and ice shards fell down.

"Is that so?"

A cry of laughter came from behind. Yayoi turned around and saw Kenjaku wrapped in a Suguru shell, and the little fox he was holding by the scruff of the neck.

The other person smiled inexplicably, and Shoko stood in front of him, putting a distance between the impostor and the students.

"What? You can't catch anyone but you want to catch a fox?" Shoko said with a look of contempt on his face, "What an ambition."

"Didn't you see it?" Kenjaku shook the fox.

Shoko narrowed her eyes. The cigarette in her mouth had no sparks. The low-temperature air around her could no longer light the cigarette.

"Ouuh." The little fox rose up and raised his claws to scratch the wrist of the impostor. He showed his sharp teeth, opened his mouth and bit the wrist that originally belonged to him.

The fox's hands and mouth were not gentle. Kenjaku frowned, and blood dripped from his wrist. He looked at the gray fox welded to his wrist like a bear trap, and laughed, "You can only go so far now."

"Suguru Geto." He looked down at the fox that had lost his human form, and smiled with a wicked smile on his face.

A side kick hit his head, and Kenjaku lowered his head subconsciously. Yayoi kicked the steel bar that was hanging in mid-air to prevent it from falling. The steel bar that received the heavy blow deformed neatly.

With a slip of his feet, Kenjaku and Yayoi distanced themselves. When he saw the deformed steel bar, the thousand-year-old monster couldn't help but shed cold sweat. The fox on his wrist had been taken away by Yayoi.

The cold wind mixed with frost and snow howled again. Yayoi threw the fox in Shoko's hand, turned around and threw the sword in her hand.

The fox caught by Shoko looked into the drooping eyes of his classmate, with a meaningful expression in her beautiful almond eyes, "Tsk tsk."

Geto the Fox: "..."

"Tsk."

Geto the Fox: "..."
What the hell was tsk, he didn’t turn into a fox voluntarily! Why didn't he act like a good person? Was it because he didn't want to be a human being?

"Missed..."

The force of throwing the sword was terrifying. The last time he experienced such strength was when Sukuna used him as a human punching bag and pulled him out.

He folded his hands as a shield, and the sword that was thrown hit him with a 'thump' sound.

The sharp light of the sword was drawn out from the scabbard, and the cold blade reflected his face. The scabbard was the only thing left in the frozen hand. He subconsciously thought that the other person was going to kill someone with the sword, but he never thought that she was going to hit someone with her feet.

He quickly raised his hand to block the kick from the side. He was caught off guard and was kicked out again.

This woman was too strong. He must not confront her head-on.

Uraume rushed to the back, but the expected pain did not come as expected. He found that he had been carried by the cursed spirit released by Kenjaku.

"Let's go." Kenjaku said.

Uraume glanced at him coldly, and the hoarfrost poured over him again. Yayoi subconsciously used the chain to pull up the barrier. The cold hoarfrost hit the barrier and quickly formed into ice cubes, covering large areas. Ice blocks enveloped the entire perimeter of the barrier.

With a 'click', the thick ice cubes shattered and crashed to the ground. The golden chains entangled in the dilapidated infirmary were like snakes gathering after the tide, disappearing into the cold air like fireflies.

The light golden sunlight fell diagonally from the large hole made into the infirmary floor. The two teenagers piled in the corner like sticks slept soundly. If you ignore the blood stains around their mouths and foreheads, the blond little girl hugged the broom handle and tried to calm her heartbeat like a drum.

"Run away." Yayoi muttered.

"Run away."

Shoko stroked the fox meaningfully, and the fox let her stroke him until death.
