Chapter 247 Wu and Jie's Gift
As for who should take out the gift first, Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru chose to compete by rock-paper-scissors, on the grounds that fighting was too childish and not something adults should do.
Although I don't know how this is less childish than fighting, at least my room and door are saved, so to some extent it is cause for celebration.
Two scheming men can put a lot of thought into even such a childish game.
Gojo Satoru first pretended to be nonchalant and made a "yeah" gesture in front of Geto Suguru, and then when he shouted "rock, paper, scissors", he shouted "scissors" especially loudly.
In the end, as expected, Geto Xiayou took out a cloth and wrapped the stone tightly.
Gojo Satoru yelled at him for cheating and tried to change the match to a best-of-three format, but he rejected it without hesitation.
"So what kind of gift is it?" Although I didn't have high expectations, after they asked me about it, I was really curious.
"I made it myself." Xia Yujie took out a square box from his wide sleeves and smiled with narrowed eyes. "This is the first time I made something like this, so it can only be considered not too rough. Please forgive me."
It's a hairpin.
The hairpin has a silver body and brown branches that stretch out and wrap around the bottom. In the middle is a blooming white flower with clear petals. Two heavy cherries hang symmetrically on the left and right.
At first glance, it seems lifelike.
"Wow!" I exclaimed in surprise, "This is so beautiful."
Such an exquisite hairpin was just not too rough in his words, and he even said it was the first time he made it. This guy is too humble.
If he didn't become a leader and became a designer, he would still receive a lot of admiring looks.
I picked up the hairpin and looked at it carefully.
A pink light flashed on the cherry, and the hairpin began to bend slowly, turning into a bracelet.
Xia Youjie came over, took the hairpin, put it on my wrist, and explained with a smile: "It can be transformed into various shapes."
I reached out and pulled it, and it was surprisingly elastic and didn't break even after I pulled very hard.
So it can be used as a hairpin, bracelet and hairband at the same time. How convenient!
"Thank you, Jay." I said happily, "I like this gift very much."
"By the way," Xia Youjie said, "Referring to the design of the prison gate, I set this hairpin so that if the distance between you and it exceeds three meters, the hairpin will automatically return to the box, so you don't have to worry about losing it."
Wow.....how thoughtful!
But this is probably because when I wanted to take a shower a few days ago, I couldn’t find the only hair tie for a long time, and he was impressed by the way I rummaged through the drawers.
In the end, I could only borrow Nanako's.
Who could have thought that a sorcerer with six eyes who could accurately locate the enemy's position could be so careless.
Maybe I accidentally ended up at Gojo Satoru's house when I was trying to escape.
"Anyway, you've received all of Jie's gifts, right?" Gojo Satoru pushed past Geto Suguru without any hesitation, crossed his arms and said triumphantly, "Can we prepare to receive Lord Gojo's gift?"
Wow, he really looks like he deserves a beating. No wonder Jay said that he was ready to use his backup plan even after losing his memory.
Never mind. It’s this guy’s birthday, so I’ll just go along with him.
"Okay, okay, I'm honored to receive Gojo-sama's gift." I raised my hands in surrender and said perfunctorily, "So what is Gojo-sama's gift?"
"Ting ting ting ting~" He conjured up a gift box out of thin air from behind him.
Two meters high and two meters wide, it is placed next to my bed in a very exaggerated manner, standing upright with a strong presence.
Moreover, it is wrapped in thick black, completely opaque parchment paper, so you can't tell what's inside.
“Hurry up, hurry up.” Gojo Satoru stood beside me and pushed my back, urging excitedly, “Open it, open it.”
I:"........."
Why do I always have a bad feeling?
After removing the first layer of wrapping paper, there is the second layer, the third layer, the fourth layer, the fifth layer, the sixth layer... My hands are almost paralyzed by fatigue, and this thing is still one meter high.
"Are you sending me a bunch of wrapping paper?" I looked at him expressionlessly, then an idea suddenly occurred to me, and I jumped up and punched his shoulder, "I'm telling you, if you open all the boxes, there will only be a note inside saying [I fooled you, the gift is not here]."
I sneered, "Just wait to be buried in the snow and become the latest oversized snowman."
"Hey, Kiri-chan, don't be so angry." Gojo Satoru blinked guiltily and looked away.
"No, you really did that!" I pinched his neck and started to yell, "Even if today is your birthday, you're dead."
“Okay, okay.” Seeing that the box had not been completely opened, Gojo Satoru said with regret, “I was wrong.”
"This is the real thing." He took out a music box wrapped in a transparent acrylic box.
The little blue-eyed, white-haired man stood in the middle of the carousel, with one foot raised, one hand raised high, holding a bouquet of small lilies, and smiling with his mouth open.
"Poke it and see." He urged impatiently, "Hurry up, this time it's not a prank~"
Okay...I reached out and poked the little man's shoulder.
"Happy birthday, happy birthday!" came the voice of Gojo Satoru.
"And more." Gojo Satoru reached behind him, where there was a spring, and gently turned it a small circle.
The little man immediately changed his posture, bent down and tilted his head, and said with a smile: "Wu-chan will treat you to a daifuku meal, be happy~"
Then, he really took out a Kikufuku filled with edamame and whipped cream from his pocket.
After another half turn, the five little people sat down, put their feet together, held their faces and looked at me obediently, saying, "Today is also a super super beautiful beauty~"
Twist it again, it's a wink and a flying kiss: "Here's to you, the pain is gone~"
After twisting it a full circle, five little people took out their handkerchiefs, waved, and said to me, "Come on, everything will be fine~"
"It's Gojo Satoru's original voice~" He swayed behind me, even not forgetting to pull me down, "How is it? It's so much better than the rough and clumsy hairpin of Little Eyes, isn't it?"
"Wu, are you asking for a beating by saying this?" Xia Youjie patted his shoulder gently, "The yard is empty, do you want to go out?"
"Jie is dreaming again." Gojo Satoru shrugged, "It's super cold outside, who wants to go out with you to freeze? Wu and I will stay inside and watch you fight alone."
.........How does one fight? He has to battle wits and courage with the air.
"And today is my birthday too, and you didn't even prepare a present for me." He said, "You're too biased!"
"I'm prepared, I'm prepared." Xia Youjie said expressionlessly, "Who can you blame if you can't find it yourself?"
"Wow, you little eyes are lame, you're putting the blame on someone else. How would I know where you put it if you don't give it to me?"
"So you can't even find this, how dare you call yourself the strongest?"
I:"........"
For a moment, it was as if I was back in high school, back to the time when I was still these two teachers.
"Alright, alright." I waved my hands, breaking up the two people who were about to fight, and said tiredly, "I'll take out my gift first, and then the two of you can go out and settle your grievances. Those who need to hide their gifts can hide their gifts, and those who need to find their gifts can find their gifts. Is that okay?"
Oh my God, someone come take these two away and let me relax.
You are already 28, why do you still want to be a kindergarten teacher?
I opened the door, left the two people behind, and walked straight into the next room to take out the gift for Gojo Satoru.
