Chapter 215 Gain and Lose Again
I opened the door to the coffee shop.
The air outside was very cold, the sky was completely dark, and the moon was buried deep in dark clouds.
In an instant, heavy rain fell.
At first, he was just walking slowly and aimlessly, but later, his steps became faster and faster and turned into a sprint.
Until someone called my name from behind.
No, no, it’s the name “Gojo Kiri”.
Mimiko held Nanako's hand tightly and stood on the street, panting.
The rain soaked their bodies, their hair stuck to their cheeks in a mess, and the two of them were shivering with cold.
"Why are you here?"
"Hey, Gojo." Mimiko didn't answer my question. Instead, she looked at me closely and said, "You are not that Gojo."
"They all said that Gojo Satoru has been unsealed." She said with strong expectations and wishes, "So, you are not that person, right?"
"...Yes." I said, "But this has nothing to do with you, go back quickly--"
"Give Master Getsu back to us!" Nanako interrupted me loudly.
The two of them knelt in front of me, just like when they begged Ryoumen Sukuna, bowed their heads and pressed their foreheads to the ground: "You saved us, and you are not the Gojo Satoru who killed Master Getsu."
"So... please." Nanako raised her head, tears constantly falling from the corners of her eyes, mixing with the rain and rolling to the ground.
"You can ask for anything you want, the funds of the Panxing Sect, our lives, anything, as long as we can give, you can take it!"
Mimiko kept her forehead pressed firmly to the ground, her body trembling and she sobbed weakly.
"What...?" I was stunned. "Why would I want your lives?"
"We found out," Mimiko said with a sob, "Gojo Satoru left the thing that occupied Geto Suguru's body at Jujutsu High School."
"Please, bring Master Geto back." She closed her eyes, in pain and anger. "Whatever it takes, let him be free."
These words struck my mind like a bolt of thunder.
The person whose body was occupied was Jay.
It's not that we have never met before, it's Geto Suguru from another parallel world.
But it was Geto Suguru who sat in front of my bed and read the newspaper to me when I was in a coma.
It was Geto Suguru who said goodbye to me gently in the small mountain village.
It was Xia Yujie who was sitting on the steps, listening to me quietly.
There has never been a moment more profound than this moment when I realized that it was the same person.
It turns out that it is the same person all along!
But Jay is dead... Jay is dead... Jay is dead!
"Kiri-chan, what you should ask is, if Geto Suguru survives, will he be happy?"
"So I accepted the fact that the candy would not be produced anymore and I also accepted Jay's death."
"But what about him…will he be happy to see us again?"
"I suddenly found something I couldn't accept. I lost what I gained."
The words of Gojo Satoru and Nozomi suddenly appeared in my mind alternately, over and over again.
Gain and lose… Gain and lose…
It turns out that I have been losing again and again...
"If I had to watch that guy die again, I don't think I could do it."
Then can I do it?
Can I do it!
Covering my face suddenly, I took a step back, one step after another.
"Please!" Mimiko begged urgently, "You are our only hope, please..."
…………
long silence.
I half-knelt down and held Mimiko and Nanako's shoulders.
"Tell me." I asked softly, "Before Jie died, did he leave... any last words?"
"We don't know." Mimiko and Nanako raised their heads stubbornly, looked at me and said, "The last person he saw was Gojo Satoru."
“Okay, okay…” I said tremblingly, “It’s Gojo Satoru…”
That’s right, it’s Gojo Satoru.
So, nothing has changed.
According to the predetermined destiny, it keeps running without stopping.
"Mimiko, Nanako."
I looked at the two girls in front of me.
According to the timeline, the first time I met them should have been in that shabby house ten years ago.
After I rescued their mother, the two of them stood timidly behind the door and refused to come out to see me.
At first they were very afraid of me, but later they gradually became less afraid of me.
Every time I visited the Jiachang family, they would take out their treasured snacks from the box, or go to the kitchen to wash apples for me to eat.
Their lives have never been rich, but they are happy staying with their mother.
That kind, amiable woman who was willing to believe in me unconditionally, always hoped that her two daughters would grow up healthy and happy.
But now it has become like this.
"I'm going to ask you a few questions." My voice was shaking slightly. "You have to answer me truthfully."
"You said."
"Your mother...is her name Kaba Oko?"
"How did you know that?"
"Did she...die from drowning in 2006?" I asked.
"...Yes." Mimiko paused for a moment before answering.
That's it, that's it...
If I had never been here...
But the fact is, I was there.
Hahahaha…hahahaha…!
How ironic.
So, I am the culprit of all this.
Is it because I break in again and again that they repeat the same ending of death over and over again?
It’s all because of me…it’s all because of me…
Jay died because of me.
There are many more people, including Haibara, Tsu Miki, and Kaba Oko...
Is it because I entered this world again that the endings of the last time and the last time before that were overwritten?
"Why are you asking these questions?" said Nanako. "What happened to our mother should have nothing to do with you."
"Well..." I suppressed my voice and emotions and said calmly, "It has nothing to do with me."
Just a little bit.
Just a little bit different...
Why I should go to that comic con competition.
Why did you choose to cosplay as Gojo Satoru?
Why do you wear that pair of blue contact lenses?
Why are you running over here?
It's all my fault... It's all my fault...
"Hey, Gojo..." Nanako saw that I was still in a daze and finally couldn't help asking, "Why don't you say something? Do you agree or not?"
"You get up first." I took a deep breath and reached out to pull the two sisters up.
"Your parents, and Jay...didn't give birth to you to kneel down to any stranger," I said.
"You want Lady Geta to come back, right?" I looked into their eyes and said seriously, "I can agree to this request."
"The premise is that you must listen to me," I said, "and you must do whatever I tell you to do."
"..." The twins looked at each other, clasped their hands, and said without hesitation, "We promise you."
"Well," I said, "first of all, don't kill anyone, don't provoke anyone, and don't get killed."
"Can this be done?"
They nodded.
"Notify the followers of the Panxing Sect and ask them to take you to a safe place to hide." I continued, "Leave me your contact information."
"I will come to you after I finish my work."
"Before that, don't go out casually." I said seriously, "Do you understand?"
"I know." Mimiko and Nanako said, "We'll listen to you."
Before they left hand in hand, the two looked back at me, hesitated for a moment, and said to me, "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
After all... after all, he is the child I am looking after...
