Question: What is Gojo Satoru to you?

"My teacher? If he hadn't been there I would probably have been executed by now. And also..."

"He kind of saved me, just kind of. And I don't think I'm the only one who feels this way..."

"To be honest, I don't know him very well. But I can guarantee he's..."

"An idiot"
"An idiot"
"Salmon"
"But..."

"Frivolous, individualistic"

"Gojo Satoru is a good-for-nothing white-haired bastard! He hurt lady (y/n) which I will never forgive"
"Eh? But he apologized and took her to the medic brother"
"Doesn't matter, just cause he saved her doesn't excuse his actions. Tch, and he had the gall to tell her he loves her? Ridiculous"

"What about you brother?" Jiang turns to Quaing.
"...Gojo Satoru is a strange, childish, cocky man. Nevertheless, a strong man with ambition. That day that I sparred with him for just a moment, he had such a strong and willful energy. I hope that one day I can spar with him again"

"Do you need me to tell you?"

"The strongest!"

The camera records your backside.
"Satoru...Satoru is..."
you turn around and give the most heartwarming smile.
"A wonderful gift given to me"

In the underground tunnel.

"This is an unexpected turn?" Quiang breaks the silence.
"We're talking about Gojo Satoru here. What proof do you have for me to believe you?" Mei asks.

"Sorry, but I have nothing. If I must provide something, it's the very fact that I'm here. I was killed on October 19th by a special grade cursed spirit called Mahito. What's here is no more than the insurance I left when I was still alive" Mechamaru continues.

"I only managed to sneak these puppets into three locations ahead of time. Itadori Yuuji was the jujutsu high sorcerer. Least likely to be leaking any information. And Mei Mei, given the situation, I'm now certain you're in the clear, too"

"Why?" She asks.
"Someone as skilled at intelligence gathering as you was dispatched here to Meiji Shrine Station instead of acting in the shadows at Shibuya. Itadori wasn't even a part of jujutsu society until several months ago either"

"Hey, that might have been so I'd have an excuse to refuse aiding them. Besides, I'm the one who has kept stopping Itadori-kun from heading straight to Shibuya all this time. I would've asked Quiang to do it but that almost sounds like asking a favor, and I hate to pay back favors"

Quiang tilts his head confused.
"Then why is a curse user currently heading your way to eliminate you two?"

Turning around where the darkness sheds, Quaing can just sense the presence from a mile away.

Mei smirks.
"One, two...two huh? Itadori-kun, which is stronger, these two or the cursed spirit you fought earlier?"

"They're probably stronger than that grasshopper. Mister Quiang, would you be able to beat that?"
"It depends. However, I think I can manage this"

"The cursed spirit Itadori fought was able to speak human language, so it was a semi-first grade or higher at least...and things like that are crawling out of the woodwork? I wonder where they've been hiding and what they've been up to until now"
