In the original storyline, eleven fingers have appeared so far.

So far, Japanese knotweed has swallowed two, but what few people know is that there was originally one inside Japanese knotweed, meaning that Japanese knotweed has three inside.

These three are beyond our reach.

Unlike stripping away curse power, forcibly stripping the power and soul of the Cursed King's two sides from the "Sukuna container" is something even the system cannot do.

Lynn has already recovered eight of them, and there are still nine left outside.

Among them, there is one in the body of the top-level cursed spirit under the Eighty-Eight Bridges.

Xia Youjie's adopted daughters, Nanako and Mimiko, possess one of them. It is also said that they have a clue to another one.

Gojo Satoru secretly possesses a key to defeating Sukuna in the end, which is also the key to defeating Sukuna in the original story.

There are about five left in the hands of Rimei and Lusuo.

Lynn didn't know whether, at this point in time, Lu Suo and the others had collected all the remaining fingers.

However, there were no clues about those five fingers, so it's best not to try to steal them for now.

The same goes for Gojo Satoru's.

In other words, the fingers that can currently be targeted are one under the Eighty-Eight Bridge, one in the hands of Nanako and Mimiko, and a clue to the finger.

Lynn pinched the space between her eyebrows with her fingers.

The one under the Eighty-Eight Bridge is relatively easy to obtain.

With Lynn's current strength, it would be a piece of cake for him.

As for how to fool Nanako and Mimiko, that's a question.

Lynn currently lacks the power to kill Lu Suo directly, and therefore cannot fulfill their request for Xia Youjie to rest in peace.

Just kidding, if Lynn had that kind of ability, why would she need to find a finger?

Just kill all the cursed spirits.

"Speaking of fingers, the bindings on the cursed spirit Fang Li still have to be carried out..."

Lynn turned over and pondered silently.

The intervention of Lynn's Juvenile Institute actually changed a lot of the plot.

Because of Lynn's intervention, Sukuna did not completely take over Itajitsugi's body.

He never confronted Fushiguro Megumi directly, never witnessed her "charm," and never developed any interest in her.

Tiger Staff did not die as a result, and he did not make a pact with Su Nuo.

This directly resulted in Sukuna now being nothing more than a frustrated soul trapped inside Itadori's body.

This is what Lynn wanted to see, which is why she persevered and completed the plan at that time.

Reshaping Su Nu's body was part of Lynn's plan, and trading with the King of Curses would yield more points than trading with anyone else.

As for the tragedy that Sukuna's arrival would cause, to be honest, Lynn has already tried to avoid it as much as possible.

For example, Fushiguro Megumi.

As for whether this would affect ordinary Japanese people, to be honest, Lynn didn't care that much.

A few Japanese people, they died, and that's that.

Moreover, conflict is what drives people to make deals.

If the world were at peace, who would give money to Lynn, that unscrupulous businessman?

Lynn came into this world not to slay demons and monsters.

In some ways, he is like Su Nuo, doing things only according to his own whims.

……

The first rays of morning sunlight had just pierced through the curtains of the infirmary.

Shoko Ieiri, with an unlit cigarette dangling from her lips, stared at the empty hospital bed.

That usually lazy and calm face was now filled with an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

"Gone?"

She turned to look at the nurse who was changing the sheets.

"Yes, Mr. Lynn was discharged early this morning," the nurse replied tremblingly. "He said he has a multi-million dollar business deal waiting for him at the store, and he can't afford to waste a minute."

"..."

Old school building.

Branch of Exchange No. 8.

"Boss, is it alright to put these newly arrived 'spell tool maintenance oils' on the third shelf?"

Yoshino Junpei was wearing a smart college uniform and carrying a heavy box.

Since the last "sewer battle" and "family defense battle", Shunping's temperament has undergone a dramatic change.

The boy who always kept his head down, with bangs covering half his face and a gloomy look in his eyes, is gone.

Instead, there was a young sorcerer with bright eyes and a straight back.

Of course, in front of Lynn, he was still a well-behaved "working man".

"Okay, Shunping."

Lynn sat behind the counter, holding a cup of hot tea, comfortably crossing her legs, watching Shunping bustling around.

"Hurry up, this batch of goods is a hot commodity that I need to promote to Kyoto School during the baseball game."

"yes!"

Shunping responded and quickly arranged the goods neatly.

Looking at such a sensible employee, Lynn nodded in satisfaction.

"Shunping."

"What's wrong, boss?" Shunping wiped his sweat and turned around.

Do you know what the most perfect employment relationship in the world is?

Lynn put down his teacup, pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, and revealed his signature smile that made people want to clutch their wallets tightly.

Shunping paused for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Is it... mutual benefit?"

"wrong."

Lynn held up one finger and shook it.

"The boss drinks tea while the employees work; the boss counts the money while the employees take the blame."

"..."

Shunping's lips twitched slightly.

"Boss, can you stop making exploitation sound so self-righteous?"

"This is not exploitation, this is called 'providing valuable training opportunities for the growth of young people'."

Lynn stood up, walked up to Shunping, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Since we're talking about growing up..."

Lynn flipped his hand and took out a glass test tube containing a pale golden liquid.

"This is your 'employee benefit'."

"What is this?" Shunping asked curiously as he took the test tube.

"【Sorcerer's Constitution Enhancement Potion - Level 2 Special Edition】".

Lynn said casually, "After drinking it, through training, your strength will quickly reach the second level. You can think of it as a drug that enhances training efficiency."

Shunping's hand trembled, and he almost dropped the test tube on the ground.

"Level two?! This...this is far too valuable!"

He had been in the world of sorcery for a while, so of course he knew how difficult it was to improve one's physical condition.

"Drink it."

Lynn stood with his hands in his pockets, speaking casually.

Lynn once told Shunpei that he would make him stronger.

Lynn will do what she says she will do.

"Of course it's not free. You'll be going on a mission with me soon, and there will be ways you can help me."

"and……"

Lynn squinted.

"The upcoming special training might kill you if you were in your current state."

Shunping felt a chill run down his spine.

Without further hesitation, he pulled out the stopper, tilted his head back, and poured the medicine down his throat.

"Ugh—!!"

The next second, Shunping suddenly knelt down on the ground, his muscles began to spasm violently, and his bones made a cracking sound like popping beans.

That feeling was like my whole body being taken apart and put back together.

"Hold on."

Lynn's voice rang out from above, cold and calm.

"The acquisition of power always comes at a price. If you don't want to be a weakling for the rest of your life, grit your teeth and get through it."

Ten minutes later.

Shunping was soaked to the bone, as if he had been pulled out of the water.

He clenched his fist, and the air crackled slightly in his palm. His vision was clear, and his body felt incredibly light.

"How are you feeling?" Lynn asked.

"I feel like I could kill a bull." Shunping looked at his hands excitedly.

"very good."

"Now, the special training begins."

……

Training ground for higher vocational colleges.

Lynn unbuttoned his suit cuffs, rolled up his sleeves, and revealed his muscular forearms.

"Shunping, how are you currently using your technique [Yodozuki]?"

"The main strategy is to wear down the opponent using poison..."

Shunping looked at Lynn with some hesitation.

Lynn extended a finger, and a ball of magical power condensed at the fingertip.

"The effects of a sorcerer's spells can be explored."

"The secret lies in the manipulation of magical power."

"Your toxins were created using a technique, but their specific effects can be controlled."

"Neurotoxins, blood clotting agents, hallucinogens, truth serums, and even curse poisons that can block the flow of cursed energy..."

As Lynn spoke, he began to instruct Shunpei on how to control the shikigami, much like a strict mentor.

The next three hours were hell for Shunping.

Under Lynn's guidance, he repeatedly squeezed out his magical power, controlling [Dianyue] to secrete various strange toxins.

Whenever his magical power was depleted and he was about to faint, Lynn would force him to drink a bottle of incredibly awful-tasting recovery potion so he could continue training.

This special training lasted for several days...

Meanwhile, during Shunping's training, the baseball game at the vocational high school was also taking place.

……

someday.

"very good."

Lynn checked the time and nodded in satisfaction.

"Today's special training is now over."

Although Shunping was exhausted and felt like he was about to fall apart, he felt the real power within his body, and his gratitude was almost overflowing.

"Boss, thank you! I..."

"stop."

Lynn raised her hand to interrupt his emotional outburst.

He took out a calculator and started typing away.

"15000 points for constitution potion, 500 points for venue fee, ... totaling 15500 points."

Lynn tore off a long bill and patted Shunping on the chest with a smile.

"Put this money in your account and deduct it from your salary for the next twenty years."

"Keep up the good work, Shunping. I believe in you!"

Shunping held the bill, his gratitude instantly freezing on his face.

Twenty years?!

"Alright, stop staring blankly."

Lynn straightened his suit and pushed open the training ground door.

Outside the door, the sun is just right.

The sounds of people and announcements could already be heard on the college's playground.

"Let's go, Shunping."

Lynn looked towards the playground, a hopeful smile curving her lips.

"Today's baseball game is going to be a big event."
