Chapter 95: The best friend Suzuki Kawa who goes against the grain has a...
Suzuki Kawa has one advantage.
Just stubborn.
So he stiffened his neck and said to the system, "How is that possible? I don't think Kokushibo is that kind of person. No, not that kind of ghost. Do you think everyone is like you?"
system:?
[Okay, okay.]
But then again, with Kokushibo's silent personality, he probably wouldn't say anything.
Everyone discussed it and once they reached a consensus, they left it alone.
The construction of Infinite City is still in full swing. Suzuki Kawa has the excellent qualities of a good boss, which is to let employees do their work freely and he will take responsibility if there are any problems.
Cheng Ji also possesses the outstanding talents that a good employee should have. She directs the new kids who have joined Infinite City to build a company, including but not limited to: creating new furniture, improving infrastructure, and storing various resources.
The system said that Suzuki Kawa was just slacking off and was winning without any effort.
In order to prove that he is not a dog that wins without effort, Suzuki Kawa lets his subordinates bleed some blood to upgrade every few days, which is much faster than eating people.
So you have to complete your workload and clock in every day for seven consecutive days to earn one drop of blood. Suzuki Kawa, you've truly been corrupted by evil capital.
Suzuki Chuan lay on the couch, holding the ice watermelon he'd redeemed from the item store in one hand, and waved his hand nonchalantly, "What do you know? This is called a sign-in gift pack. I give you two drops every month."
"And it's first come, first served. Only those who complete their tasks and clock in first can come to me to get it." He raised a finger and shook it.
System: ...and hunger marketing.
Regardless of the system's condemnation, Suzuki Kawa held a comic book in one hand, occasionally taking a bite of ice watermelon and commenting, "This drawing is not bad."
[What are you looking at?] The system was curious. It had no permissions to see the contents of the comic book. Suzuki Kawa's backend order only displayed [Jump Hot Blood Comics 10-book package special price].
Suzuki Kawa stared at the comic book, thoughtfully. He ignored the system and turned another page.
"Looks so familiar..." he suddenly exclaimed.
"I never thought the Demon Slayer Corps could last this long." He took another bite of the watermelon.
The system senses something is wrong: [Could it be that you are looking at——]
Suzuki Kawa glanced at the font in the corner: "What's it called... Oh, "Demon Slayer". This kind of opening is really familiar. The protagonist's entire family is killed and he swears revenge or something."
He casually flipped through the rest of the story, skipping through it, and soon got bored: "This rest of the story is all about killing monsters and leveling up. It's so boring. Only someone like Muzan would lose."
system:……
[Why would there be something like this in the system mall…] Its flat electronic sound revealed a sense of powerlessness and numbness.
Logically speaking, this kind of spoiler stuff will cause you to step on landmines and give warnings if you’re not careful, right?
Why are there these things in the prop mall? !
It suddenly wondered what the other nine were.
However, Suzuki Kawa had already stuffed the comic book back into the system backpack, finished eating the watermelon in his hand, and stuffed it back into the system backpack together with the comic book.
System: [Are you using this grid space as a trash can?]
Suzuki Kawa: "What a clever system."
Ignoring the system's jumping up and down, he got up from the couch, walked into the inner room to wash his hands, and wiped them with a clean towel. After Cheng Ji's efforts and Suzuki River's financial support, his room had become quite luxurious and fully equipped.
Funding, of course, also comes from the system’s involuntary and enthusiastic support.
The saying "It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality" has no effect on Suzuki Kawa. He can live a fulfilling life no matter what the environment.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Suzuki Kawa put down his handkerchief, threw it into the basin, and turned to walk outside.
He pulled the black robe off the shelf and put it on.
Although he said that he was always eighteen years old, Suzuki Kawa's height had reached 1.86 meters. His long hair had reached his waist because he had not taken care of it for a long time. His pale face also had a bit more gloom, especially under his eyes, which had a layer of darkness.
The system said this was the result of him staying up late playing games.
Suzuki Kawa was unmoved. A ghost doesn't need to rest. He had endured three days and three nights just to complete the game. How could he be shaken by a system?
It was Shirohime who knocked on the door.
It shouldn't be a very urgent matter, otherwise Cheng Ji would have informed him through blood, but judging by the expression on her face, the matter is probably quite important.
Sure enough, after seeing Suzuki River open the door, Shirohime rarely saluted immediately. Instead, she said hurriedly, "Sir, many little ghosts have gone out and never returned recently. I went out to check and I think they died at the hands of the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps."
"Moreover, there are also quite a few demons that were not taken into the Infinite Castle and have disappeared. I suspect they also died in the Demon Slayer Corps' hunting operations."
The ghosts that are not brought into the Infinite City are either low-quality, inferior ghosts, or powerful evil ghosts that bring disaster to the locals.
Cheng Ji was referring to the latter.
Suzuki Kawa's face remained calm as he nodded, "Then don't ask them to go out recently. The Demon Slayer Corps has produced some incredible figures."
The young man leaned against the door, his arms folded and his eyes lowered, as if he was thinking about something. Cheng Ji was waiting for his next arrangement, and at this moment she also held her breath and concentrated.
"Is Ando Tsukasa not here?" Suzuki Kawa looked up.
Cheng Ji quickly replied: "Yes, he just left and said he was going to find some lower moons."
The young man's slightly cold voice came: "Let him go back."
Currently, in the entire cannibal ghost system, Suzuki Kawa is below the Ghost King, and Suzuki Kawa has given Shirohime the highest authority. She quickly located Ando Tsukasa's position and quickly opened the Infinite City.
“Ahhhhhhhhh!”
The boy's tragic howl appeared before the figure, and then he fell to the ground, still howling.
Suzuki Chuan kicked him mercilessly: "Stop screaming, you're not dead."
Ando Tsukasa opened his eyes. He looked really miserable, his clothes were tattered, and there were several knife marks mixed with blood on his exposed skin, which were still slowly healing.
Seeing Suzuki Kawa, he shuddered for a moment, then quickly stood up and complained: "Boss! I got beaten!"
"Who hit you? How much blood did you drink? You're still so useless." Suzuki Kawa squatted down and looked at him with raised eyebrows. He stretched out his hands to pinch his jaws. His purple eyes drooped, full of pressure.
"Yes, yes, it's Tsugumi Yuichiro, Boss!" His lower face was pinched, and he spoke vaguely. He thought about the name for a while, and felt like his head was turning into a paste, as if a stick was stirring it.
Just now he really thought he was going to die.
Suzuki Chuan released his hand and stood up. Cheng Ji, who was standing beside him, handed him a wet towel. He took it and wiped his hands. He was not surprised to hear the familiar name. He said lightly: "You didn't even have a chance to resist."
He has seen Ando Tsukasa's memories.
There was no chance to fight back at all. He was chased and hacked by the Breathing of the Sun. He was in such a miserable state.
After wiping his fingers clean, he returned the handkerchief to Cheng Ji and looked at Ando Si with disgust: "You little minions, don't go out. Behave yourself and ignore the ghosts outside. Those guys are not to be tolerated."
Man-eating ghosts are naturally attracted to human flesh and blood. Those low-level ghosts are all treated as experience packs. Some ghosts with strong strength and brains either fight against Yuichiro Tsugakuni or run away. After all, Yuichiro Tsugakuni is a human being, and his range of activities is fixed around the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, so he cannot be chased that far.
What he cared about more was the other figure he saw in Ando Tsukasa's memory.
After letting the two ghosts go down, Suzuki Kawa returned to the room. The door closed automatically. When he looked up, he saw the longbow hanging on the wall.
The bow of Artemis is made of brown branches. Even though he has fallen into a ghost, it does not affect the characteristics of the artifact at all. A few green leaves are dotted on it, and the crescent moon mark remains the same.
Now he no longer had the need to put the Bow of Artemis away, so he simply hung it on the wall in the room as a decoration.
The system kept saying that he was wasting resources.
"No wonder he couldn't even beat Ando Tsukasa. It turns out that all the brothers joined the battle." Suzuki Kawa stood in front of the sacred longbow, thinking to himself.
Seeing him deep in thought, the system couldn't help but speak after a long while: [Um, there's a task, would you like to take a look?]
Suzuki Chuan came back to his senses: "What mission?"
As he finished speaking, another electronic voice, completely different from the system's usual artificial voice, sounded: [Limited Time Side Quest: Going the Other Way - Enabled]
[Please defeat Jiguo Yansheng within three days.]
[Reward for successful mission: Eliminate the side effects of the stripe lifespan.]
"Stripes?" Suzuki Kawa frowned.
The system eagerly presented him with the settings of the markings. Suzuki Kawa frowned after reading those lines of text. It was a buff that gave a huge boost in strength at the cost of lifespan in a short period of time. The person who opened the markings would not live to the age of twenty-five.
Yan Sheng is almost twenty-five years old this year.
Suzuki Chuan noticed something was wrong: "Markers, could they be those lines on his forehead and cheeks?"
[Right, right!] The system confirmed.
"Then, he's not far from twenty-five, right?" Suzuki Kawa had a bad feeling.
[Right, right. According to the pattern setting, he won't live for the next half year.] The system looked at the side quest and felt that it was no different from a mandatory quest.
It is now around 1:30 in the morning outside, and there are still several hours before dawn. The system says that the dawn time for the past month has been around 6 in the morning, so Suzuki Kawa has at least four hours to move around.
Suzuki Kawa no longer wanted to ask where the stripes came from. The mission was limited to three days and the life span ended at the age of twenty-five, which meant that he had to take action.
"Let's go." His brows furrowed and he disappeared into the Infinite City.
Disappearing with him was the Bow of Artemis on the wall.
On the other side, Johji, who led Ando Tsukasa away, noticed that Suzuki Kawa's existence disappeared in the Infinite Castle, and she couldn't help but stop.
Ando Tsukasa: "What's wrong? Lady Shirohime?"
Cheng Ji came back to her senses and said, "Master Suzuki has gone out."
"What! Is the boss going to get me into trouble?!" Ando Si was excited.
Shirohime looked at him, wanting to say something but stopping herself. She felt that Suzuki Kawa left not for Ando Tsukasa, but it seemed that he was indeed going to find the man named Tsugakuni Yoriichi.
It only took a second for Shirohime to spy on the whereabouts of the higher-ranking ghost, and she lost her position with Suzuki River. However, she still couldn't help but secretly expect that the swordsman who killed so many man-eating ghosts would definitely be killed by Lord Suzuki.
Suzuki Kawa often blocks out the thoughts of his subordinates, so he had no idea that his two subordinates had already started imagining him killing everyone.
He is now following the Jiguo brothers stealthily.
It was a waste of resources for two people to kill ghosts together. After he followed for half an hour, the two brothers decided to act separately. Ji Guoyuan went into the mountains, while Ji Guoyansheng went down along the river.
Suzuki Kawa followed Yan Sheng without hesitation.
Although Yan Sheng looked a little different from what he remembered, Suzuki Kawa was pleased to attribute this to Yan Sheng's growth.
On one side of the river was an empty grassland, and on the other side was a dense grove. Suzuki Kawa was hiding in the grove, looking sinisterly at Jiguo Yansheng as he walked over.
Just as he was watching intently, he saw the familiar figure walking away. Suzuki Kawa was about to follow him, but his shoulder was held down.
Then a deep voice sounded beside him: "Long time...no see."
