Chapter 024

In March, Tokyo's cherry blossoms are in full bloom on streets lined with cherry trees, along riverbanks, and outside the city. Passersby often stop to admire the beautiful scenery.

However, this does not include medical staff within the clinic.

"Mr. Hanoi, killing ghosts is important, but your health is also very important. Please cooperate with us to complete your rehabilitation training, otherwise we will have to use our ultimate move on you."

"No, I'm ready, let me go. And Xiao Axi, I'm already prepared, so this time I definitely won't be hurt by you."

However, as soon as the man finished his angry yet complacent voice, he turned into a wooden man.

Qingxi looked at him sympathetically, called Mei and Xiaohui from the clinic, and directly carried the man who ran out of the dojo back.

Standing in front of the other person, Qingxi smiled sweetly, revealing a row of small white teeth, "I need to correct it a little. I am no longer the "secret weapon" of the clinic. Now the "secret weapon" of our clinic is Dr. Ueno.

Dr. Ueno used to practice his skills by catching ghosts, and later monkeys. Now he's made some progress, so his next target is injured ghost hunters like Mr. Kawachi who are uncooperative.

River. Unlucky. Became the first human to have acupuncture done by Dr. Ueno. The cat's eyes widened, hair stood on end, and he was terrified.jpg

Qing Xishi put his finger to his lips and made a hushing gesture, "Mr. Hanoi, please don't tell anyone about this. Sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone."

Hanoi:……

Hanoi felt that the person standing in front of him was not a little girl, but a little devil in the skin of a little girl.

but--

He thought her suggestion was good. Emmmm, he couldn't be the only one being acupunctured by Dr. Ueno. Since they were brothers, they should all feel the pain together!

In fact, there was no need for Qingxi to say that to Hanoi. The ghost hunters from the reconstruction period in the clinic today had been "suppressed" by Ueno Shin in a short period of time.

Looking at the unshaven doctor who walked out of the ward with an expression almost saying "Great" on his face, Qingxi thought it would be a good idea to teach him a little bit. With him as the head of the clinic standing there, if anyone was still stubborn, he wouldn't have to stand up and be the bad guy.

"Excuse me, is anyone there?"

A strange voice came from the door of the clinic. Qingxi, who was the only one closest to the door, walked over and opened it.

"Yes, have any new wounded been sent in?" Qingxi asked as he opened the door.

However, when she looked up and her eyes were attracted by the tall figure behind the hidden personnel, a long look of surprise appeared on her face, but after the surprise, she felt joy.

"Mr. Beimingyu!"

The girl came out, walked to the side of the tall man, circled around him, and sighed, "Mr. Beimingyu has changed so much, I almost didn't recognize him."

Qingxi was not being polite, but the changes in Beiming Island Xingming were really huge.

First of all, the body shape. At the beginning, she saw Gyomei from Beiming Island. In order to let the children he took in have more food, he gave away most of the food that belonged to him, but he himself was hungry. He had such a big skeleton but he was as thin as a paper man. Later, after she fed him, the paper man gained weight, but he still looked thin. And then, when she saw him again half a year after joining the Demon Slayer Corps, he had become a tall and strong man with a strong body and muscles all over his body.

She glanced at the outer haori he was wearing. Well, although she had deliberately enlarged it a little when making it, it didn't seem too small when worn by Beiming Island Xingming, but it did give people the impression that they couldn't move freely.

...I'll go back and make a new one, and enlarge the length of the original haori by two fingers.

She looked down at her little finger and thought silently in her heart.

Beimingyu Xingming listened to the girls' chattering voices surrounding him and smiled slightly, which was rare for him.

Placing his hand on the girl's head, he directly explained his purpose. "I have successfully killed fifty demons. I came here this time because I was promoted to a pillar and was summoned by the lord. And..." He paused and turned his head slightly towards the pair of sisters who came with him. "Bring the Butterfly sisters to the clinic."

"I rescued them from the clutches of demons. They were born into a medical family. Unfortunately, I was unable to rescue their parents from the clutches of demons at night. I thought this place might be suitable for these two sisters, so I brought them here together.

I'll have to ask Ah Xi to take care of them later."

She placed both hands on the big hand pressing on her head. She wanted to take the big hand off her head, which was holding her head up with one hand, but in the end she still endured it.

Compared to Dr. Ueno's frequent behavior of rubbing her head for fun, the head rubbing by Gyoumei Beimeijima, who had not seen her for more than half a year and did not rub her head to tease her, could be said to be very gentle.

So, she can endure it.

Inside the clinic, he happened to pass by the door and saw a cute little girl with a soft face standing next to a tall young man. The man's broad and thick palm fell on her hair and rubbed it gently. The girl raised her hand and placed it on the big hand, with a bright smile on her face. Ueno Shin first felt the harmony of the picture, but at the same time, a little bit of sourness rose in his heart.

Yes, that's right, he's just a little bit sour.

I rubbed her head in the same way, but why was there such a big difference in treatment?

The fingers hanging on both sides of his body moved slightly. What should he do? His hands were telling him that it was a little itchy, the kind that would only be relieved if he rubbed off a layer of skin on the little girl's head...

No matter how much resentment Ueno Arata has, the atmosphere on Qingxi's side can be said to be harmonious.

After taking on the task of taking care of the Butterfly Sisters, she asked one last question: "Will Mr. Beimingyu come over after meeting the Lord?"

Beiming Island Xingming nodded, "I will come here to eat before going to the patrol area assigned to me."

Qingxi nodded after receiving this answer, but then remembered that the other party couldn't see him and added, "I understand. Then Mr. Beimingyu, please go to the lord first. I'll see you later."

"See you later."

She watched the tall figure of Beiming Island Xingming walking away under the guidance of the Yinbu personnel. Only when he was out of sight did she take the Butterfly Sisters into the clinic.

The elder sister of this pair of sisters is named Kanae Kocho, she is 13 years old this year, and the younger sister Shinobu Kocho is 10 years old, both of them are older than the age that Kiyoki has said to others.

She first took the two of them to report to Ueno Shin. However, for some reason, upon seeing her, Ueno Shin looked at her like a resentful father abandoned by his own daughters. Qingxi panicked and quickly took the two sisters away. Then, she led the Butterfly Sisters just like she had led Koharu Aya, who was familiar with the clinic, when she was first sent to the clinic by the Anbu staff over half a year ago.

After walking around for a while, she finally took them both to the house where she currently lived.

"The dormitories for the medical staff are on the second floor, usually three to a room. I came to the clinic before you, and the other rooms were full, so I was assigned to a new room. Now that you're here, you'll be sharing a room with me. That shouldn't be a problem, right?" Qingxi asked. Seeing Kanae Kocho shake her head, she pointed to the two empty beds next door. "Those two beds are empty. You can decide which one to sleep in when the time comes."

She pointed at the small round table and said, "I bought that. We can all use it together. There aren't many furniture pieces in the house, so if you need anything, you'll have to buy them and arrange them yourself. If you need anything, it's best to list them yourself, and then I'll go out with you to buy them. Tokyo isn't like a small town, and some shop owners are dishonest. If I go with you, we'll be less likely to get ripped off."

At this point, Qing Xi paused, looking at the somewhat reserved and alert Kocho Shinobu, she set her sights on Kocho Kanae, "Sorry."

As for what she was sorry for, she was just taking things for granted, thinking that since she had money when she came to the clinic, everyone else would be rich too.

She changed the subject and said, "I don't have much in my small box. If you need anything, I can lend it to you."

Kanae Kocho is an extremely smart girl and has understood what Qingxi meant from her eccentric words.

It was precisely because she understood her kindness towards her sisters that, compared to her younger sister's vigilance and her stress reaction that seemed to explode at the slightest touch, Kocho Kanae had already let down her guard and started communicating with Kiyoki.

"Thank you for your help, Aki... Can I call you that?" asked Butterfly Kanae with a smile.

Since the two sisters made the decision to follow Gyoumei Hirame to the Demon Slayer Corps, they collected the bodies of their parents that had not been eaten by demons and buried them. Then, with the help of the Anbu members who arrived later, they cleaned up the house that was ruined by demons. Finally, after saying goodbye to their father and mother, they came here with all the money in the house.

So, in general, the two sisters still have enough money to buy some necessities in their lives.

"Okay." Qingxi nodded. "In that case, can I take you there this afternoon?"

Kanae Kocho quickly understood. Not to mention that it was not far from lunch time, the next thing to consider was Mr. Beiming Island.

She also remembered the joy on the face of the little girl in front of her when she saw Mr. Beimingyu.

Butterfly Chanehui said considerately: "Okay."

She left the two sisters in the house to clean up, gave them a few instructions, and then went downstairs.

He didn't go anywhere else, but went to the kitchen to prepare a special meal for Beimingyu Xingming.

The clinic's three meals a day usually include meat, but Beiming Island Xingmei is a monk and does not eat meat. Oh, it's not that he has never eaten meat. Qingxi couldn't help feeling guilty when she recalled that when she first lived in the temple with the four of them, she beat eggs into the food she ate, and later she and Youta, Xiang, and Airi looked at each other and said that they would never tell Mr. Beiming Island about this matter.

At the time, she really didn't think much of it. She just thought eggs were nutritious, and there was no harm in adding a few to the stew for everyone to eat together...

Well, a good man shouldn’t talk about his reckless behavior in the past.

In short, at this moment she was in the kitchen making another vegetarian meal for Beimingyu Xingming.
