Curse back: Gender-swapped cosplayers always meet the real person

Chapter 193 But I'm Different

November 2018, 11, 10: am.

It’s the tenth day since I came into this world.

"What would you like to drink?"

At the bar, the bartender in a reddish-brown suit and vest asked attentively, "We have a full range of alcohol here. No matter what flavor of cocktail you want, I can make it."

Judging from his expression, he probably thinks of me as a fat sheep to be slaughtered.

"Then..." I glanced at the menu and finally found a non-alcoholic drink among the various drinks, "Let's have a lemon coke."

Bartender: “…”

Although I can drink a lot, I never go out drinking alone. Who knows what kind of monsters I might run into.

What's more, this body of Gojo Satoru, whose gender has changed, probably can't even touch a drop of alcohol. Who knows what earth-shattering consequences will arise.

"You don't look like you're in a good mood." The bartender brought me a lemon cola and continued to talk to me while wiping the glass.

"Indeed." I nodded and said nothing more, successfully ending the conversation.

.......Ten minutes later........

"Isn't it a bit too much for you to go to the bar and just order a Coke?" Fushiguro Shigeu appeared in front of the bar and sat down one seat away from me.

"At this time, only the pub is open." I took a sip of my drink in silence. "It's because they don't sell coffee here."

"You're still picky." Fuguro Shier looked at the colorful cocktails on the menu and finally chose the strongest one: "Give me a glass of whiskey on the rocks, and she'll pay for it."

"Hey." I complained unhappily, "Didn't I just give you 20 million? Now you want me to buy you a drink? You're too stingy."

"Any opinions?" Fushiguro Jiner turned his face slightly, the smile on his lips was particularly obvious under the colorful lights, "Didn't you also steal Gojo Satoru's card?"

"His money is my money, so what does it matter?" I said confidently, "Even if I go to a bank, I can pass the facial recognition."

Hearing this, the bartender who was mixing drinks looked a little subtle.

I'm not sure whether he thinks of me as a criminal who uses high-tech means to commit crimes, or as an ordinary woman who is kept by a man and then secretly keeps a gigolo.

Fortunately, no matter which one it was, he was just mixing cocktails honestly and had no intention of reporting me.

"You disappeared for four hours after leaving Kong Shiyu's house." Fushiguro Shige took a sip of wine and asked, "What did you do?"

Four hours ago, I successfully got the names of four people from Kong Shiyu.

Taro Noguchi, Aota Yamamoto, Eiichiro Higashikawa, and Hiko Nakano.

Although their respective positions are not low in the world of sorcery, I don't think they are the masterminds behind this.

Three hours ago, I got the addresses of three of them and secretly went there to investigate.

The result was that they had all died suddenly before the plan started. Since they took poison, it was impossible to determine whether it was suicide or homicide.

Before they died, they all left suicide notes, saying that the person who killed them was Gojo Kiri.

Two hours ago, I collected all the suicide notes and went to the home of the last person, Nakanohiko.

His ability was stronger than the other three, and he avoided the poison.

But after a tough fight with the people who came to silence him, his internal organs were displaced and he was not far from death.

"What I have always advocated is to seek peace with Gojo Satoru."

While spitting out blood, Nakanohiko explained, "I have warned them time and again that they cannot beat Gojo Satoru, but no one listened."

"I'm going to die anyway, so it doesn't matter if I drag a few people down with me." He begged for mercy, "I just hope you can let my family go..."

An hour ago, I found the list in Nakanohiko's safe, which detailed the process of the operation against [Gojo Kiri] and also included a list of members.

There were 24 people in total, and 18 of them agreed to release Ryomen Sukuna to kill Gojo Kiri.

Due to time constraints and enormous pressure, their action plan was full of mistakes and omissions.

Nakano claimed that this was a list he had inferred based on the personalities of the speakers during the last secret anonymous meeting, and that there was no substantial evidence.

However, even if it is just speculation, it is enough to prove a lot of things.

Seeing that I was still in a daze, Fushiguro Shier repeated patiently for the first time: "What have you been doing?"

"When did you become so curious?" I asked him back, "We don't seem to be that familiar, right?"

"........"

"I can guess it even if you don't tell me." Fushiguro Shiori pouted and asked, "Why don't you tell Gojo Satoru?"

"........" I was silent for a moment, looking down at the dull blue eyes on my wrist, stroking it gently with my thumb.

From the time it landed in Shibuya to now, a full ten days have passed, and the progress bar above has not changed at all, as if it was just an ordinary tattoo.

"For the same reason as you." I finally said to him, "I can't do what Gojo Satoru can do."

What Principal Ye Moth said before actually makes a lot of sense.

There are some things that everyone guesses that you did, but as long as you put on a mask, everyone can pretend that nothing is wrong.

For various reasons, the High School, the Big Three, and the General Directorate all wear such masks, and no one has yet taken them off.

The top leaders in the world of sorcery were afraid of Gojo Satoru's strength that could easily destroy them all, and they knew that he had such an idea. But on the other hand, they were also clear that Gojo Satoru would not do that for the time being.

Therefore, in order to weaken Gojo Satoru's strength, they will only come together more closely.

From Gojo Satoru's perspective, he also understood that once he started taking action, he would provoke a frenzied counterattack from his opponents. At that time, it would definitely not be possible to stop the fight by killing one or two people.

In this situation, a delicate balance is born.

Gojo Satoru wants to reform the world of sorcery, but he cannot accomplish it alone.

He must have firm followers behind him who will not doubt him.

But once he becomes the executioner who picks up the butcher knife, many things that were originally certain will become uncertain.

Not to mention the far ones, even the technical colleges... But I am different.

On the other hand, there are things that I can do that Gojo Satoru cannot do.

"To be honest, I'm still hesitant."

I took a big sip of the Coke, lowered my head and muttered, "If I really did that... I'd probably be very angry..."

"what?"

"Nothing." I drank the Coke, took out a few banknotes from my pocket and put them on the bar, spread out my hands and said, "Just think of it as me being drunk and saying something."

"Tsk." Fushiguro Shigeki also drank the wine in one gulp. "It's okay to be drunk, just don't do anything stupid."
