Chapter 249 Confrontation
Question: What is the difference between Gojo Satoru and a cat?
Answer: Cats are not that naughty.
After sharing the delicious ice cream cake, the adjective "delicious" refers to the fact that he kept showing off to Geto Suguru how delicious it was from the first bite, even though Geto actually had a big piece in his hand.
The verb "divide" means that he cut off most of the cake and gave the whole plate of cake to others to eat.
Before anyone else opened their mouth, he grinned to himself: "What? How do you know this is a super luxurious ten-inch cake?"
"What? How do you know this is one of the birthday gifts Kiri-chan gave to someone~"
I deliberately emphasized the words "one" and "two".
Mimiko and Nanako rolled their eyes. "It's like everyone has experienced this before."
Question: What is another difference between Gojo Satoru and the cat?
Answer: Cats don’t have such a strong curiosity.
After dividing the cake, he sat in front of the lottery machine and kept pulling the lever with his paw.
"White note."
“No reward.”
"White note."
For three consecutive times, the tickets drawn were all blank.
"Wu-chan, what's going on?" He turned around and said with a puffed mouth, "I can't draw any prizes."
"You have to give him some time to cool down," I explained. "Even the donkeys in the production team don't dare to use them like this."
"Tsk~" He put his hand down regretfully, "If this happens, when will we be able to see all the prizes?"
"Why are you in such a hurry?" My eyelids jumped. "Anyway, the stuff is yours, you will finish it one day."
Fortunately, I had the foresight to set a time limit ahead of time.
Otherwise, I didn't put much in there in total, and if he took it all out in one go, would I still be able to save my face?
"Anyway, don't do it." I moved the lottery machine away and loudly diverted his attention. "Didn't you say that you couldn't find the gift Jay gave you? Go find it quickly."
"Do you think I didn't look for it?" Gojo Satoru said dissatisfiedly, "I turned the Pansei Cult upside down and almost tried to take Lalu's coat, but I just couldn't find it. It's Liu Hai's fault for being so insidious."
"Satoru, just say it straight." Xiayou Jie said, "There's no point in making so many excuses."
"Then keep looking." I pushed him and urged him, "After all, it's a birthday present from a close friend after so many years!"
“Hiss~” Gojo Satoru stopped and hugged his shoulders as if he couldn’t bear it anymore, “Kiri-chan, don’t keep saying those two words, they’re so corny.”
"Yeah." Xia Youjie stood behind him, squinting his eyes and smiling, "Whenever I heard others say that this guy is my best friend, I was so upset that I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night."
I:"........."
I've never really understood why you curse back at people. Will you die if you express your feelings frankly?
"Anyway," I struggled to get back to the point, "Wu, go find a gift."
"You guys are so noisy, let me be quiet for a while."
After struggling to push the two people out of the door and throwing the gift box and the lottery machine to them, I finally leaned against the wall and slowly sat down.
I’m so tired. My heart is so tired.

Geto Suguru and Gojo Satoru were standing in the corridor.
The snow was still falling, and the branches were covered with snow. They bent down unbearably, and a silver light burst out on the ground.
According to the weather forecast, there will still be continuous heavy snow in the next few days.
Despite the presence of dedicated snow removal teams, roads in some areas will still be blocked and difficult to pass.
However, what is considered difficult to pass in the secular sense is often ineffective for sorcerers.
On a cold day like this, several people from the Bankei Cult, including the most stable-looking Nemu Riku, came out and played snowball fights with Mimiko and Nanako.
Xia Youjie stood beside him, watching all this with a smile.
The two had a conversation while doing the transaction.
It was a simple exchange of information and did not involve anything deeper. Gojo Satoru told Geto Suguru everything that Yuri tried to hide.
They have completely different attitudes towards this matter.
Both of them believe that the past is the past and there is nothing to escape from.
Geto Suguru accepted calmly that he was once a bad guy who cursed and wiped out many lives.
Perhaps it was the snow scene, his birthday, the gifts, or the fact that there was someone standing next to him with whom he could confide, that made Gojo Satoru rarely feel like talking.
The talking here does not refer to superficial, light-hearted, joking conversations, but something deeper.
"I never asked you this question." Gojo Satoru said, "Even though you have amnesia and don't remember anything."
"But what do you think of Kiri-chan?"
"Regard?" Xia Youjie raised his eyebrows and asked calmly, "Which aspect do you mean, and what kind of regard do you mean?"
"No matter what, we haven't known each other for more than ten days," Gojo Satoru said, "I don't think you're the type to let down your guard around others easily."
"Do you need a reason?"
Xia Youjie did not answer his question immediately, but looked up and thought for a while before slowly saying, "Maybe it's for the same reason as you."
Talking like this sounded like a riddle, but both of them knew exactly what the other meant.
Some lies were so crude that they could be seen through at a glance, but he couldn't find any reason to expose them.
I didn't feel strange about the girls in the room.
You can talk naturally, joke, and complain to each other. You trust this person, and you can feel the same level of trust from the other person.
Although his memory was blank, Geto Suguru didn't think that this kind of thing was common in the so-called world of sorcery.
After hearing Geto Suguru's answer, Gojo Satoru was silent for a while.
He turned to the room behind him; the door was tightly closed and there was no movement.
Even with a pitch-black eye mask on, Geto Suguru could be sure that the expression in his eyes at this moment must be very complicated.
"Do you think she is willing to stay?" he asked suddenly.
"........What do you think?"
The corridor fell into another level of silence. In the courtyard, cheers and laughter from snowball fights could be heard continuously.
"Don't run!" "Mimiko, catch up!" "Lalu, you're cheating." "You've fallen into a trap!"
"........."
"Forget it, let's not think about this for now."
Gojo Satoru readjusted his stance, clapped his hands, and said in a lighthearted tone, "Anyway, where did you hide the gift?"
"If you don't take it out now, isn't that a bit too much, huh? Little eyes."
"I'm talking about you, Wu." Xia Youjie glanced down, turned away, and left. "I haven't found it yet. Isn't it a bit stupid?"
He lowered his head slowly.
In the corridor, the gift box that he had carefully wrapped, which even six eyes could not see through, and used to play a prank on Wu-chan, was still quietly placed there.
It wasn't torn apart.
Gojo Satoru: “…….Huh?”
