Chapter 152 Like Your Eyes
"You're leaving?" Gojo Satoru asked in a big way, "Go home? Going back to what home?"
"Zenyuan's home is only a few dozen minutes away from here."
"Satoru." Xia Youjie put his hand on his shoulder and reminded him, "Master Zenyuan should be talking about her original home."
Gojo Satoru's expression froze.
Glass took two steps forward and asked, "Master Zenin, when are you planning to leave?"
I glanced down. "It could be tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow."
"Anyway, it shouldn't be too long."
The air conditioner was still running, blowing cold air without stopping for a moment.
Most of the fruit plate on the small purple round table had been eaten, and water droplets were dripping from the cold drink glass.
The computer music that Geto Suguru brought had not been turned off yet, and it echoed in the room along with the sound of Gojo Satoru playing video games.
"You lose, you lose!" No one was controlling the controller, and Gojo Satoru lost the game.
This is a very subtle pun, which can mean that you lose, but it can also refer to your loss.
"Tsk." Gojo Satoru scratched his light-colored hair twice in annoyance and walked over to turn off the game.
The originally relaxing and pleasant scene was instantly divided into two different atmospheres.
After a brief silence, Gojo Satoru suddenly asked, "It's okay if we don't leave, right?"
"what?"
His blue eyes sparkled. "I say, even if you don't leave, it's no big deal, right?"
"If you think about it carefully, this world is not that different from your world. The people from your world also exist here."
"Since we are the same person, there is no need to go back."
Gojo Satoru kept throwing out his opinions, "If the speed of time is different, by the time you go back, they might have become old grandpas and grandmas and would have forgotten about you."
"If it's the same person, why do you have to leave?"
First of all, although you are the same person, you are not the same person.
Secondly, I can’t go back to that world.
"........"
Gojo Satoru was still looking at me expectantly.
I covered my face with my hands in silence, and after a three-second pause, I finally had the courage to say, "I'm sorry."
Walking to the shelf, I took out two drawings from the drawer.
One is a design drawing of a small doll that he had drawn for Geto Suguru - a Q version cartoon figure of Geto Suguru, wearing purple fox ears, narrow eyes, and a strange fringe on his forehead.
Cartoon Jay was lying in a reclining position, squinting his eyes and smiling with his mouth covered, as if he was yawning.
There was a big round bee resting next to my hand. It was the cursed spirit that Gojo Satoru and I had caught.
There is also a group photo of all the people in the curse book that I drew.
Because everyone was so busy, we couldn't get together to take a group photo, so I simply put together the photos in my phone and drew one.
He even secretly drew Meegumi and Tsumiki in for his own personal taste.
"Jie, this is for you." I handed him the blueprint. "This is the original. The copy has been given to the boss."
But I don’t think I’ll ever see the finished product.
"The one for Wu is already prepared, remember to pick it up."
"As for this one," I said, "I hope you can open it after I leave."
Drawing Q-version cartoons is easy, but drawing group photos that require a lot of skills is a life-threatening task.
Let them execute him publicly after I leave.
"Oh, right." I pulled out the special-grade curse tool from Chou Bao's belly and handed it to Nanami. "I've observed over the past few days that you are suitable for using this Soul Release Sword, and Huiyuan is suitable for using this Wandering Cloud. These two curse tools are now given to you."
Nanami: ".......Teacher Zenin, I can't accept you."
"why?"
I can't take it away anyway, so I might as well keep it for them to use for self-defense.
"What will you do if I take it away?" he asked, "Will you never use the spell tools again?"
I:"......."
Ah, forgot about that.
“Ahahahahaha…” I rubbed the back of my head, laughing a little weakly, “Maybe it’s not necessary anymore.”
"After returning to that world, I plan to retire..."
"So we are nothing to you!"
After listening to what I explained to everyone in silence, Gojo Satoru clenched his fists and asked, "If you want to stay, stay. If you want to leave, leave."
"Satoru." Xia Youjie stopped him, "Calm down."
Gojo Satoru shook off his hand and shouted, "It was like this last time, and it was like this the time before that."
"I worked really hard on the tasks to pay back the money, for fear that I would owe you something."
"I do everything on my own and never tell anyone."
"You waited until we were almost leaving to tell us, what reaction do you expect us to have?"
"Satoru!" Xia Youjie grabbed his neck and pulled him back hard, saying forcefully, "Stop it now."
"If you were leaving, why did you come here in the first place?"
"........."
I let out a small breath, my hand holding the blueprint trembling slightly, and said in a calm tone as much as possible, "I just... forget it. Sorry, Satoru."
"It's not up to me to decide when I can leave."
Like I said, coming and going, gaining and losing, are not up to me.

After leaving the lounge, I walked aimlessly around the school.
Rows of shaded trees formed a continuous whole, and I walked under them.
"Teacher Zenin." Xia Youjie chased after me from behind and stood side by side with me.
"Where are you going now?"
I was startled.
"have no idea......."
I'm actually feeling exhausted right now.
It’s like being in a movie theater, watching a long movie but not leaving, leaning back in your chair, looking at the sliding subtitles.
While I breathed a sigh of relief, I wanted to leave, but my body felt heavy against the chair, yet I didn't really want to leave.
"Satoru is really angry this time." Xiayou Jie said, "I guess a dessert can't appease him."
"Oh." I squatted down, lowered my head with droopy eyebrows, and looked at a row of ants walking in front of a big tree. One of them fell behind and was circling around under the tree in a daze.
"What about Jay, is he mad at me?"
"Do you want to hear the truth?"
"Ah."
"A little bit indeed." He laughed, "It's not just me. Naoko and Nanami must be feeling bad too."
“The question that Wu asked actually flashed through our minds.”
Xia Youjie came over and squatted beside me. He picked up a branch and poked it, sending the lost ant back to its original path.
"Master Zen, what are we in your heart?"
"It's a miracle." I said after a moment of silence.
"In the past, I never thought I would meet you."
My 25 years of life have been boring, with work and overtime day after day, boring life and entertainment, and endless expectations and waiting.
Then one day, a miracle happened.
A gorgeous flower blooms in the ordinary life.
"Jie." I took out a jeweled ring from my pocket and handed it to him, "Please pass it to Wu for me."
He opened his mouth, and wanted to use the ring to pay off the debt because he still had some money left, but then he remembered what Gojo Satoru had just said.
He said I was afraid I owed him something.
"Just say that this is a gift to him as an apology."
"............" Xia Yujie took the ring silently and looked at it under the sun.
The gems sparkle in the sunlight.
"What a beautiful color," he said. "It looks just like your eyes."
