Sumire looked at him and lowered her voice a little.

"Itadori-kun, you did a great job just now."

Yuji Itadori paused, taken aback.

"Eh?"

"If it weren't for you, that child might have been seriously injured," Sumi Kikawa said. "So don't say you 'just happened to see it.' You saved her, and that's a remarkable thing."

Yuji Itadori opened his mouth, as if he was a little unsure how to respond to such earnest praise.

After a while, he looked down and smiled.

"Thanks."

"However—" Sumi Kichikawa changed the subject.

Yuji Itsuji inexplicably sat up straight.

"Saving others is admirable, but that doesn't mean you can ignore your own injuries." Kikawa Sumi secured the bandage. "Now it's your turn to receive help, understand?"

Yuji Itadori looked at his bandaged arm, then at Sumirei Kawakawa.

He suddenly realized that this doctor spoke very gently, but it was hard to refuse him.

It's not because of being powerful.

It's because he spoke very seriously.

"Understood." Yuujin Itadori nodded obediently.

"very good."

As Sumire Kichikawa tidied up the cotton pads, she asked, "Why are you here alone today? Are you a resident of the neighborhood?"

"No, I'm in Tokyo for school," Hisahito Itadori said. "I was traveling with my classmates, but when I went to buy drinks, they were gone. I messaged them, and they said they'd meet at the next stop, so I'm planning to walk there myself."

Sumi Kichikawa stopped what she was doing.

"So you left the group during the school trip?"

Yuji Itadori immediately explained, "I'm not lost! I have GPS, and we're not far from the meeting point."

Sumire Kawakawa looked at him.

Yuji Itadori's voice gradually faded.

"...It's probably not far."

Sumire Kikkawa sighed softly.

"Kunweed-kun."

"Yes."

"It is not safe to travel alone during a school trip."

"Yes."

"Especially since you left the group to buy a limited-edition drink."

Yuji Itadori was shocked: "Doctor, how did you know it was a limited-edition drink?!"

Sumi Kichikawa glanced at the corner of the packaging bag sticking out of his bag.

"Just a guess."

Hisahito Itadori immediately showed an expression of having been seen through.

"It's a Tokyo-exclusive melon soda flavor," he said. "It's not available in Sendai."

Sikawa Cheng: "..."

He almost laughed, but he held it in.

"Contact your classmates and the teacher in charge first."

"Oh, right!"

Yuji Itadori quickly reached into his pocket for his phone.

The phone screen is cracked.

He pressed it twice, and the screen lit up.

"It still works, that's great."

He looked down at his classmate, typing and muttering to himself, "The teacher will definitely scold me... being separated from the group and a traffic accident, it sounds really serious..."

Sumi Kikawa said, "You can put 'saving a child' first."

Hisahito Itadori looked up: "Wouldn't that sound like I'm making excuses?"

"Facts are not an excuse," Sumi Kichikawa said. "However, leaving the team certainly deserves criticism."

Japanese knotweed Hisahito: "..."

Sumi Kichikawa added, "I will help you explain the situation to the teacher, but I will not help you avoid being scolded."

Knotweed Hisahito couldn't help but laugh.

"The doctor is so fair."

"Doctors should be objective."

"But she's so gentle."

Sumi Kichikawa glanced at him.

Hisahito Itadori smiled calmly, without the slightest hint of flattery.

Sumire Kawakawa smiled.

"Thanks."

After the paramedics arrived, Sumi Kikawa briefly explained the situation, confirmed that the little girl and the driver had been taken care of, and informed the paramedics of Hisahito Itadori's basic information.

When Hisahito Itadori heard that he might also have to go to the hospital, he immediately waved his hand.

"No, no, I'm really fine!"

Sumire Kawakawa looked at him.

Yuji Itadori paused in his movements.

"...I said again, 'It's really nothing.'"

"Yes," said Sumi Kikawa, "the fourth time."

Hisahito Itadori silently lowered his hand.

Sumi Kikawa told the emergency responders, "There are no obvious signs of concussion or fracture at the moment, and I have given him basic first aid. However, he just narrowly avoided an out-of-control vehicle and then fell to the ground, so it's best to observe him for a while."

Yuujin Itadori whispered, "How long should we observe?"

"Avoid strenuous exercise and going out alone, at least tonight. If you experience dizziness, nausea, drowsiness, swelling or significant pain in your wound, seek medical attention immediately."

Hisahito Itadori nodded: "Okay."

"Also, contact the teacher."

"It's already been sent."

"Let me see it."

Yuji Itadori obediently handed over his phone.

Sumi Kichikawa read the message.

[Teacher, I was in a traffic accident after I left the group, but I'm okay; there was a doctor with me.]

Sumire Kichikawa was silent for two seconds.

Hisahito Itadori asked cautiously, "Won't this work?"

Sumi Kichikawa took the phone and said gently, "You'll scare the teacher to death."

Japanese knotweed Hishito: "Huh?"

Sumire Kawakawa added a sentence for him.

I saved a child from being hit by a car, and I only suffered minor abrasions myself. The doctor has examined me and advised me to observe the situation for now. I'm currently near the accident site and will send you my location.

He handed the phone back.

"That makes it clearer."

Yuji Itadori looked at the screen, his eyes lighting up.

"Doctor, you're so reliable."

"This is called avoiding information confusion."

"It's also very reliable!"

Sumi Kichikawa didn't deny it, she just smiled slightly.

Just then, my phone vibrated.

[Sweet White Cat: Xiaocheng, is it convenient for you to send your location now?]

As Sumire Kichikawa looked at the message, her eyes softened slightly.

He resent his current location.

Gojo Satoru replied quickly.

[Sweet White Cat: Wait two minutes.]

Sumire Kikawa looked up at Hisahito Itadori.

The boy is looking at his phone with a troubled expression.

"What did your friend say?"

Yuji Itadori looked up: "They said the teacher was taking attendance and asked where I was. I said I had a minor accident, but it was nothing. They said they were coming over."

"Where is the teacher in charge?"

"I sent it too," said Hisahito Itadori. "But it seems a bit chaotic on their end, so we might have to wait a while."

Kikawa Sumi nodded.

He thought for a moment, then looked down and sent a message to Gojo Satoru.

[Sikawa Cheng: Enlightenment. 】

[Sweet White Cat: Hmm?]

[Sumi Kawakawa: Can I bring one more person to eat with me?]

The other party did not reply immediately.

Two seconds later, the phone rang directly.

Sumire Kikawa glanced at Hisahito Itadori.

Yuji Itadori was trying to brush the dust off his bag strap with his uninjured hand. His movements were careless, but he had to be gentle because of his newly bandaged wound, making him look a little clumsy.

Sumi Kichikawa answered the phone.

"Feed?"

"Sumi." Gojo Satoru's voice sounded much closer now, with the sound of wind in the background. "Bring one more person. Is it one of the injured from earlier?"

"Um."

"You care about him a lot?"

"Yes," Sumi Kikawa answered directly. "He saved a child, and his speed and reaction time when he rushed out were excellent. The examination results showed only minor abrasions, but I don't want him to leave alone right away."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

Then Gojo Satoru chuckled.

"What is Dr. Kosuke's assessment?"

"Let him eat something, observe him for a while, and wait for his teacher or classmates to pick him up," said Sumi Kichikawa. "This will take up some of his usual mealtime, so I wanted to ask you first."

Gojo Satoru's voice rose slightly.

"What if I say no?"

Sumi Kichikawa was not fooled by him.

He looked at Hisahito Itadori, who was diligently replying to his teacher's messages not far away, and spoke in a steady and natural voice.

"I'll stay here to treat the wounded first, and then I'll treat you to dinner another day."

Gojo Satoru laughed out loud.

"Dr. Xiaocheng is so conscientious."

"Because I am genuinely asking you this question."

"I'm fine with it," Gojo Satoru said. "Bring it if you want."

Sumi Kichikawa's lips curved slightly.

"Thanks."

"No need to thank me." Gojo Satoru's voice was lazy but with a smile. "The doctor found an injured person on his way home from get off work, so of course I had to help watch over him."

Following up on his words, Sumi Kichikawa continued, "Then I hope you'll listen to the doctor later and not just order desserts."

Gojo Satoru paused for half a second.

"Xiao Cheng."

"Um?"

"Are you already starting to meddle with me?"

"If you're going to eat with the wounded, yes."

Gojo Satoru's smile became even more pronounced.

"Received, Dr. Kosuke."

Sumire Kichikawa asked, "Are you almost there?"

Gojo Satoru gave a casual "hmm," and there was the sound of wind blowing through the receiver on the other end of the phone. Then he heard Gojo Satoru say...

"look up."
