Chapter 118 The Life He Gave [Tanjiro Was...
[Tanjiro was caught by Ando, but Ando didn't kill him.] The system said.
"Then he's quite unlucky." Suzuki Kawa shrugged as he heard this while walking in the dark alley.
When Suzuki Kawa turned around, the system used some small props to directly transform into a ghost, leaving Tanjiro where he was and not allowing him to follow Suzuki Kawa.
During this short period of time, undercurrents surged in the Asakusa area.
After Ando Tsukasa got what he wanted, he immediately arranged for the little ghost to search the forest where Tanjiro Kamado was training.
As soon as he left, Tanjiro was stopped by another ghost.
On the other side, a ghost suddenly appeared in the downtown area, and Cheng Ji soon learned about it. At that time, she was having a private conversation with someone in a high-end restaurant. A subordinate came in and whispered a few words. The middle-aged man opposite her frowned and said that someone in the downtown area suddenly fell ill and was biting people.
Cheng Ji's eyes flickered, and she smiled faintly, "He must be someone with a history of illness. He came out for fun, and who knew he'd get sick again?"
The middle-aged man nodded, agreeing with Cheng Ji's statement.
Although the woman in front of him looked young, she had the connections he longed for and countless wealth. Of course, he would not refute her words.
Twenty minutes later, Shirohime, wearing a new kimono and carrying a pearl handbag, appeared on the bustling streets of Asakusa. She stood under a street lamp, looking at the coffee shop opposite, with a complicated expression on her face.
"He has given newcomers the ability to transform into ghosts," she said softly.
A young man, with a gentle look, suddenly appeared beside her. Hearing her words, he simply said, "That's the adult's freedom. Shirohime, don't follow Douma's path."
Cheng Ji turned her head and looked at Ando Tsukasa: "Ando, do you really have no selfish motives at all?"
Evil demons are all unforgivable guys. The idea of the Demon Slayer Corps is not wrong. Even Johhime, who has followed Suzuki Kawa for more than 300 years, would think that if it weren't for Douma and others, she would still be the number one person in front of Suzuki Kawa.
Their selfishness is greater and more paranoid than that of humans.
Shirohime stared at Ando Tsukasa closely.
But Ando Si, who was stared at by her, sighed: "I am different from you."
"Let me put it this way. You will be burdened by the memories of your human days, but I won't."
Strange colors reflected in Ando Tsukasa's dark eyes: "I came here for him. In the time when you were humans and ghosts, you all had some things you believed in more or less."
"Jiuji, from the beginning, I only believed in him."
Shirohime: "Didn't he return your memories of your human days to you?" She didn't quite believe what Ando Tsukasa said.
After receiving the memories of her human period, she fell into a brief period of hesitation. However, when she looked at the neatly written books, stack upon stack, which were the result of hundreds of years of her hard work, her floating heart suddenly sank.
It was the adults who gave her a second life.
She is not a merchant's wife, nor an elderly person living alone, but a city lady who has become a wealthy merchant in the difficult world over the past hundred years.
She had seen too many memories of women living in cramped houses in the past three hundred years. There were countless former Mrs. Suzukis in the homes of those pot-bellied merchants.
Manipulating money and controlling the market, all the difficulties she encountered were overcome by Suzuki Kawa with countless money. If someone obstructed her, she would send ghosts to kill them. If there was financial difficulty, Suzuki Kawa told her to do it and he would cover any losses.
Cheng Ji closed her eyes.
"My memories from my human days are useless to me. That's not right. I've known you since I was a human." Ando Tsukasa thought of his past as a card-opening anchor and suddenly became happy. "I knew you even earlier than Lord Kokushibo."
Cheng Ji turned her head sharply: "Impossible."
"Hmph, believe it or not." Ando Tsukasa was proud. He raised a finger and shook it: "Anyway, I'm not lying to you. The adults have known me for a long time. Our bond is the deepest."
"Hey, why did you leave?"
Now only Shirohime is still talking to Ando Tsukasa, Kokushibo and Douma ignore Ando Tsukasa at all. Of course, Ando Tsukasa is in charge of other ghosts' affairs, so they will not interfere.
Ando Tsukasa sighed, looked around, and didn't sense the presence of other colleagues. A smile appeared on his face and he disappeared in the crowd.
After walking out of Asakusa, he looked around vigilantly. The area was full of human smells and there was not a single ghost in sight. He felt relieved and continued to walk towards a remote place.
After disappearing into the darkness, a petal flew up in the wind.
But at this time, Suzuki Kawa was not in a hurry to go back.
He went into the alley purely because of the system's navigation. Although he questioned it no less than twenty times, the system swore that this was the shortest way.
"Didn't I say I wanted the shortest route?" Suzuki Chuan realized after walking for a while, "So when are you going to fix this crappy navigation system?"
System: [What?!]
[I've already left, just bear with it.] The system felt guilty.
Suzuki Kawa walked for ten minutes cursing before he finally walked out of the alley.
But what the system said was not wrong. As soon as he walked out of the alley, there was a warmly decorated dessert shop on his left. The system was certain that the best pastry chef in Tokyo was here.
There were not many people in the dessert shop, and there were only two or three staff members. After Suzuki Kawa entered, he glanced at the counter and asked them to pack all the matcha products for him.
The clerk's eyes lit up and he packed the food for Suzuki Kawa with a smile on his face.
[To be honest, the desserts of this period probably weren't as delicious as those of later generations.] The system didn't quite understand. If you wanted something new, the ones sold in the system item mall weren't bad either.
Suzuki Kawa walked out of the dessert shop carrying the bag in one hand. He stuffed the cup of coffee into the system backpack. The clerk packed it carefully and the bag was not small. He was thinking about finding a place to stuff it into the system backpack like the coffee.
He raised an eyebrow at the system's muttering, but didn't respond. He just looked across the street, staring thoughtfully for three seconds before turning around and stepping back into the dark alley.
Seeing his action, the system immediately and vigilantly expanded the search range, and sure enough, found an acquaintance.
[How did he know you were here? ?] The system was shocked.
"If Ando Tsukasa moves, do you think others won't notice? He just thinks he is very hidden... But, it is better not to let them find our residence, it will be really troublesome." Suzuki Kawa murmured, and the moment his figure disappeared into the darkness, the blood demon technique was activated, and the alley was empty again in the next second.
And he had already appeared in his own yard.
Ando Tsukasa, who was rushing on his way, suddenly received a warning from Suzuki River. He braked, stood in the wild to think for a moment, and turned back to Infinite City.
Since Douma has noticed his whereabouts, he would rather interrupt the pursuit than let that kid get away with it.
Besides, now that the boss has reappeared, it seems he also needs to be prepared.
After returning to the Infinite Castle, Ando Tsukasa went straight to the location of Upper Six and soon found Jifu Taro.
"Go kill a man."
"who?"
Ando Tsukasa stood in the shadow of the lamp, looking at the prostitute Taro, and uttered a name.
The prostitute Taro restrained his expression and replied "Yes".
"Where is Mei?" Ando Tsukasa glanced around. Only Jifu Taro was there. Mei didn't know where she had gone.
Don't go out and get caught and killed by the Demon Slayer Corps.
Jifutaro hesitated for a moment before saying, "She wants to go out hunting by herself..."
This kind of thing has happened before. The connection between brothers and sisters is very strong. Once Xiaomei gets into trouble, Jifutaro will immediately receive the message and come to her aid.
Ando Si frowned, "It's a turbulent time, let Xiaomei go out less."
He didn't know much about the plot of "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba", and this show didn't bother him, but he did remember that Kibutaro and his sister died in Yukaku, and they were also the first Upper Moons to die.
On that moonlit night two years ago, the Demon Slayer Corps was indeed depressed for a while, but they soon returned to normal. Ando Tsukasa observed for a long time and was certain that the Demon Slayer Corps was definitely not as calm as it seemed.
Something is quietly fermenting.
He didn't know what Suzukigawa did to the pillars on the field near dawn, but Kokushibo told him that Suzukigawa had overcome the sunlight.
That way you can just contact them and know what's going on.
After leaving the place where Jifu Taro was, Ando Tsukasa walked in the long corridor of the Infinite City, thinking about what to do next.
Tanjiro Kamado has already appeared, and it seems that the protagonist has to fight monsters and level up... Ando Tsukasa stopped, his eyes moved, and he gave orders to all the ghosts.
"All ghosts are prohibited from going out for a period of time."
Unlike Suzuki Kawa who is free to do whatever he wants, Ando Tsukasa has strict control over these old ghosts under him. He captures them for training and fighting every now and then. Now, the old ghosts do the same thing as Ando Tsukasa every day to summon Suzuki Kawa back.
This life is really not a ghost life!
After receiving Ando Tsukasa's instructions, the old ghosts were strangely calm.
——There is no difference between staying in Infinite City and going outside, except that the place where you get beaten is different.
The days passed in this eerie calm.
Tanjiro's life of fighting monsters and leveling up was not as smooth as it should have been. Although he successfully contacted Tamayo, he never encountered any powerful demons in the days that followed.
His swordsmanship is improving rapidly.
The brief encounter in Asakusa that night left a huge shadow in his heart. He used this as motivation to move forward and swore in his heart - he must kill that guy!
There are rumors that there are monsters living in the Mist Shadow Mountain. The crows are flying high, reminding the swordsmen on the ground to go to the Mist Shadow Mountain, find the evil spirits and kill them.
Tanjiro Kamado and his two other companions immediately took the Nichirin Sword and rushed to the "Mist Shadow Mountain" mentioned by Yakuza.
Wuying Mountain is just an inconspicuous patch of forest, but because of the fog in the mountain and the mottled shadows of the trees, it got the name Wuying Mountain. It has been deserted for many years.
However, the crows discovered a large number of human body parts in the mountains.
This is what's left after a ghost hunt. There must be a ghost hiding in Wuying Mountain.
But where did these people come from? No one has set foot in this forest for a long time.
The Crow discovered a small village five miles away from Wuying Mountain. Nine out of ten houses were empty, and there were large amounts of blood on the walls. He deduced that the culprit was the evil ghost from Wuying Mountain, who killed the villagers and brought them to Wuying Mountain to eat.
Tanjiro and the other two arrived at Kirigakage Mountain one after another.
The young man looked at the foggy forest. The sun was setting and night was about to fall. The fog in the mountains was still thick. Agatsuma Zenitsu was shivering beside him.
He felt uneasy, always feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
His fingers rested on the hilt of the sword, and the rough touch reminded him of something. Tanjiro Kamado's brows sank slightly. No matter what was in the Mist Shadow Mountain, it was the responsibility of the swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps to kill the evil spirits.
He turned around and said something to my wife Zenitsu, then rushed towards Kirikage Mountain.
"Eh!" Agatsuma Zenitsu looked up with tears in his eyes, and could only see the backs of his companions disappearing in the fog.
The night spread, casting a terrifying atmosphere over Wuying Mountain.
In the mountains.
Suzuki Kawa held his forehead and looked at the girl in kimono who was shrinking her neck in front of him, and the words of scolding were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them out.
It was supposed to be a beautiful and peaceful night.
Suzuki Kawa heard that there was a lake here, so he excitedly planned to go night fishing - he overslept during the day and woke up in the evening.
I had just strolled here for a while when I smelled blood and a familiar scent.
So far, he has not met his former subordinates.
But he didn't expect that the first person he would meet would be Xiaomei.
"Where's your brother?"
He frowned and said sternly, "Why didn't Jifutaro follow you?"
Xiaomei twisted her fingers, and faced Suzuki Chuan's question, she shrank her neck and whispered: "My brother is in Infinite City, I came out by myself."
The system reminded Suzuki Kawa: [The Demon Slayer Corps has entered the mountains.]
"What's it to me? I'm going fishing." Suzuki Kawa said expressionlessly.
He looked at Xiaomei, and finally sighed, patted her head, and told her to hurry back to Infinite City.
"I'm afraid Wuying Mountain is not safe tonight." He said seriously.
Xiaomei didn't know that since Lord Suzuki was here, how could Wuying Mountain be unsafe?
But she still nodded obediently, without any arrogance when killing people. Suzuki Chuan swiped his finger to the side, and a door appeared out of thin air. Xiaomei opened her eyes wide.
"Go back quickly. You haven't been coming out much lately, and when you do, tell your brother to follow you carefully."
Suzuki Kawa seemed to be watching his own troublesome child. He was relieved when he saw Xiaomei responded and disappeared through the door he opened.
[This poor kid, if she hadn't run into you, I think she would have died here tonight.] The system sighed as it watched the familiar plot.
Suzuki Chuan was walking along a dark mountain path. Hearing this, he stroked his chin and said thoughtfully, "Maybe Xiaomei's life wasn't meant to end. By the way, where is the lake you mentioned?"
The system guided him and successfully led him to a patch of weeds and thorns.
Suzuki Kawa: ...
"What about the lake?" He almost squeaked out two words from between his teeth.
System: [Hey, don't worry, I'll reboot and download the new installation package. Right away!]
The system ran away. Suzuki Kawa looked up and around, then turned back, cursing the unreliable system as he walked.
As he was walking, he heard a sound.
Suzuki Kawa was still holding a small bucket for night fishing tonight. He was wearing simple casual clothes, no different from modern people. He turned around and saw Tanjiro Kamado standing at the other end of the road with a knife raised towards him.
The anger was evident on the boy's face.
"So it was you who did it!"
Suzuki Kawa: ...?
What is this kid talking about?
