Chapter 110 Another way
It is now 3:30 in the afternoon and I walk forward without saying a word.
The intersection was crowded with people on weekends. The shadows of the traffic light poles lay flat on the yellow zebra crossing, covered by the shadows of people passing by, appearing and disappearing, like a running beast breathing irregularly.
I turned my head and counted the numbers jumping on the display screen, 10,9,8,7,6, , , , ...
The green light is on.
This little light is reflected on my face.
The people here and the people on the other side are walking towards each other.
Passing by me were children chasing and playing, young people fighting with each other, middle-aged people working overtime in work clothes, and white-haired elderly people leaning on crutches.
Everyone walks at his or her own pace, like parallel one-way streets, which suddenly intersect at a certain moment, and then disappear into the distance that is difficult to look back.
I didn't say another word.
Walking alone in silence, shuttling among the crowds of people.
Even I don’t know where I am at this moment.
Suppressing my emotions and unspeakable sadness, I could only keep walking.
Who should be blamed?
Gojo Satoru, Geto Suguru and Shinobu Fushiguro?
Knowing that I am a strange woman with a mysterious identity, isn't it normal for him to be suspicious and tentative?
Can I still ask them to trust me without asking reasons and regardless of everything?
Even I can't do this.
But...but what did I do wrong?
In the original world, work hard, live hard, and try your best to do what you should do.
In this world, I saved Fushiguro Shinobu, took care of Fushiguro Megumi and Tsumiki, entered the Jutsu School as an assistant instructor, and arranged the whereabouts of the mother and daughter in the shackle field. Was there anything I didn't do well enough?
Who have I let down? Have I done anything bad? Have I let anyone down?
Then why do you treat me like this?
Did I ask to be born into this world?
Am I saying that I want to become a lonely stranger, wandering aimlessly in a world where I have no relatives?
Until now I still don’t know when I can go home, and whether there will be another time travel.
From beginning to end, I just went to a comic convention and did some damn amateur cosplay!
......
"Zenyuan, don't walk so fast!" Gojo Satoru caught up with me and grabbed my hand, "Wait for us."
"No way." He took off his sunglasses, bent down and stared at the edge of my eyes, and asked suspiciously: "Your eyes are red, are you going to cry?"
My eyes are red...maybe because of the wind.
I pulled my hands back abruptly, breaking free from his grip.
"Go away, Gojo Satoru." I said sullenly, "I don't want to see you now."
"Hey...if this doesn't work, just beat me up."
His expression was somewhat flustered, and his tone became at a loss: "You can hit me anywhere, just don't cry."
In fact, I didn’t shed a single tear. I didn’t want to cry, and I couldn’t cry.
I just am not in the mood to talk right now.
"Teacher Zenin." Xia Youjie ran over eagerly, his eyes lingered in my eye sockets for two seconds, and then he said, "We really know we are wrong."
"I won't play rogue anymore, just beat us up."
Do you realize now that I was just being shameless?
"..."
So annoying...I don’t want to talk.
I glanced at him, lowered my head and silently walked around the three of them.
......
Fish Tank Shop
"The water temperature in the fish tank should always be kept between 20 and 30 degrees, not too cold or too hot."
The owner of the fish tank shop touched the custom-made glass fish tank and babbled earnestly, "You can buy a temperature measuring instrument to monitor the changes in water temperature at any time."
"Also, remember not to feed the fish too much food at one time. They will die of overeating."
He looked at the dozens of fish in the store lovingly and said, "Treat fish the same way you treat people. Only if you treat them sincerely will they treat you sincerely and then grow up healthily."
"Although they may not mean much to others, these fish are my treasures."
"Yeah." I smiled my first real smile of the day and said to my boss, "Thank you. I've got it all down."
I originally wanted to move it myself, but Fushiguro Shigeuchi behind me had already reached out and picked up the fish tank.
Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru each took a bag of fish feed.
I was the only one with nothing in my hands.
"Didn't you say you were leaving?" He weighed it, took the fish tank into his arms, and said, "Let's go now."
It’s not a very heavy thing to begin with, so if he wants to take it, let him take it.
The atmosphere became extremely silent.
As the sun set in the evening, the cement road underfoot, covered with a layer of cloth, was no longer hot. The branches of the low bushes were swaying in the breeze, and the sparrows perched on the telephone poles hopped and flapped their wings to fly into the bushes.
The figures became few and far between.
"Hey, say something." Gojo Satoru couldn't stand his temper. He had been silent for a long time, but he couldn't help asking, "As long as you calm down, I can do anything."
"Yeah." Xia Youjie agreed, "Even if you beat us up, I won't fight back this time."
I stopped, looked at them solemnly, and asked, "What can you do?"
"whatever!"
*
In the vegetable market, I took the time to call Nanami.
"Master Zen, the current situation is..."
There were a few figures walking in front of the vegetable stall, carefully selecting vegetables.
Fushiguro Shigeki was quite experienced with these things. He could tell which ones were delicious and which ones were no longer fresh after just a few glances, so he acted extremely quickly.
Xia Yujie compared the size of the potatoes and took some coriander.
Gojo Satoru was squatting in front of a seafood stall, fiddling with two crabs with bared fangs and claws. He accidentally got his finger pinched by the claws. He cried out in pain and was stopped by the panicked vendor.
"You won't beat them up?" Nanami asked, "Following someone without asking why is a serious offense."
Nana Ming is really a person with good manners and a good sense of boundaries.
“Well…” I said with emotion: “It’s not particularly surprising. After all, it’s something they could do.”
After calming down, I suddenly felt that it was completely meaningless to worry about these things.
"I won't beat them up anymore." I glanced meaningfully at Gojo Satoru, Geto Suguru, and Fushiguro Shige, and said, "I'm tired of beating them up."
It's time to teach them a lesson in a different way.
"Nana," I asked, "What would you, Haibara, Tsumiki, and Megumi like to eat?"
"I probably don't have time to cook for you tonight." I said, "I'll buy it for you from outside."
"Wait a minute." He put the phone away and waited for about a minute. He returned to the phone and said, "Graybara and I will just have pork chop curry rice. Hui and Tsu Miki said they wanted to have burgers and fries."
"Okay." I patted the shopping bag that contained the fresh vegetables and spices I had just bought and said, "I'll bring them all back to you later."
As for those three...just eat the food I cook.
