Chapter 34 Brothers Are Not Mushrooms
I thought that Yushiro, the poisonous Tamayo, was dissatisfied with the fact that his beloved Tamayo had to grieve for humans who had died hundreds of years ago and even committed suicide to atone for their sins, so he harbored malice and even murderous intentions towards humans. Tamayo was worried that he would become Muzan 2.0 after her death. But it turns out that Yushiro was worried about committing suicide for love?
"If you ask me how to prevent Yushiro from killing people after your death, I can give you a lot of suggestions, but to prevent him from committing suicide..."
Cheng Xiaoyu said.
"Honestly, if it was the person I was bringing with me, he'd either kill me outright to end my suffering, or beat me half to death before I even commit suicide. So I really don't know how Yushiro should handle this situation. How about... you talk to him? Does he know what you're planning?"
Actually, there is a way to stop Yushiro from committing suicide with just one sentence. That is to tell him, "If you commit suicide, you will add to the sin of causing Tamayo to be hurt, and you will spend more time in hell." Given Yushiro's love for Tamayo, he will definitely not commit suicide.
But let's not even mention whether Tamayo, who truly loves Yushiro, would say this. Even the devil Cheng Xiaoyu felt that just proposing this suggestion that would make Yushiro suffer every moment of his life was too devilish and too vicious.
Fortunately, Tamayo didn't necessarily mean to offer any advice. As she'd said before, she simply wanted a chance to vent: "Before joining the Demon Slayer Corps, I told Yushiro about my thoughts, and he expressed his support for any choice I made. But I hadn't imagined that I could survive Muzan's crusade... The child must have vaguely sensed this during this time. He told me, 'If you're truly exhausted, Tamayo-sama, it's okay if you don't want to continue.' But he feigned nothing in front of me, which only made me more worried about him... I know if I told him directly not to commit suicide, he'd do it, but he certainly wouldn't be happy that way..."
"Well...my personal opinion is that it's best not to leave without saying goodbye."
Cheng Xiaoyu glanced at the corner and continued to listen quietly to Tamayo expressing her concerns about Yushiro.
After finishing her words, Tamayo quickly composed herself and stood up to say goodbye. The entire process took just as Tamayo had predicted: a dozen minutes.
"Thank you. I'll go back and try to talk it out with the kid."
"So...as the person involved, what do you think?"
After Zhu Shi walked away, Cheng Xiaoyu said to the "air" in the corner.
"Will you still go with her?"
In the corner, Yushiro removed the invisible paper covering his head. It was his blood demon jutsu. Tears streamed down his face, but a smile played on his lips. "Not anymore. Lady Tamayo values me so much, wishing me a happy life yet fearing her words would become a shackle. How could I possibly betray her kindness?"
Yushiro and Tamayo are inseparable. Since he noticed that Tamayo was not in a good state recently, how could Yushiro let Tamayo go out of the dark area alone in this state during the day without following her?
"Actually, I didn't follow her to stop her from committing suicide. I will support any decision she makes. I made a drug that can numb ghosts' sense of pain. I don't want her to die in too much pain. I just... don't want to miss her last moment. Even at this moment, I want to see her off in person."
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't know what to say, but at this moment, it was best to say nothing. These two ghosts were genuinely concerned about each other and could solve the problem on their own.
She began to imagine herself as a calm tree hole, which couldn't speak...
Yushiro: "You are a magician. Do you think there is heaven, hell, and reincarnation after death? Do the souls of the deceased dissipate and recombine into a new soul, or are they reborn as the original soul combination?"
...actually asked academic questions to Shudong!
"Wait for me to take a look."
Cheng Xiaoyu poked No. 233, who was monitoring the world's data, and replied after looking at the current basic model and data of this world.
"This world does have places like heaven and hell, but it doesn't have the sentient gods and Buddhas that ordinary humans understand. Instead, a set of world rules operates independently, and the souls here have the possibility of complete reincarnation."
Yushiro's eyes lit up. "Doesn't that mean... if I continue to live, I can wait for the reincarnation of Master Tamayo, who has redeemed his sins, and when his lifespan reaches its end, I can reincarnate with Master Tamayo again?"
Cheng Xiaoyu: "In theory, yes."
Yushiro: "That's great! This way, Tamayo-sama can fulfill her wish, and I can see her again. Thank you. I can't think of any better news than this."
As soon as Yushiro left, Shinobu Kocho, the doctor of the Demon Slayer Corps and one of the Nine Pillars, came over with the monitoring report to discuss with Cheng Xiaoyu. When she was about to close the door, Cheng Xiaoyu stopped her: "It's okay, just leave the door open, it's a good place for some fresh air."
Mainly due to the frequency of the door opening and closing, Cheng Xiaoyu felt that the door needed a rest.
Shinobu Kocho glanced curiously at the closed window with the curtains drawn, but she still did as she was told. "No major issues were detected. Miri's reflexes are a little slower than normal, but it's far from enough to affect her normal life. Considering that humans who remain curled up in one position for a long time will experience temporary limb incoordination after recovery, I wonder if Miri has a similar problem. If so, can it heal on its own or through conventional rehabilitation?"
Cheng Xiaoyu: "The adaptation period you mentioned is common after a soul leaves its original body for a long time and then returns. However, these souls have changed their containers, and the magical girls have changed their soul forms. Therefore, I can't give a clear answer to your second question. However, the method you proposed is not impossible. The characteristics of the soul are adaptability, ductility, and a certain degree of repairability... Sorry for the conditioned reflex. What I mean is that you can give it a try. If it doesn't work, leave it to me."
If you really don't know how to do it, just look it up in a book. She had already copied the electronic version of the magic book.
I can't even turn the pages of a book and connect to someone for remote guidance.
If that doesn't work, we'll file a report requesting that all these magical girls be packed up and taken back to another hospital for treatment, and let colleagues from the logistics and medical departments take over.
Outsiders like Cheng Xiaoyu cannot enter this world at will without affecting the people in this world. Once Cheng Xiaoyu has dealt with the situation in this world, he can erase the memories of the cured magical girls and send them back.
The first formula was successfully implemented, and the next step was easy. Cheng Xiaoyu worked 24 hours a day to mix spells and start competing with the filth of the Soul Gem. The medical room was on duty 24 hours a day to receive the former magical girl on the "operating table". As practice makes perfect, the speed of the "assembly line" was getting faster and faster.
On the sixth day, the last magical girl finally went on the operating table.
"sorry."
Cheng Xiaoyu was about to activate the Soul Stabilizer when she heard this. She looked at the last magical girl in the center of the magic circle in surprise... But strictly speaking, she was just over ten years old and should be considered a girl: "What?... Wait, are you the Flower Street magical girl who caused trouble earlier?"
The girl said, "It's me. I'm sorry for saying such harsh words to everyone. I really want to apologize to all the older sisters who were there that day, but they're all gone. If I don't survive, can you help convey my message to those sisters?"
The soul gems of the ghost-hunting magical girls are generally in a state of considerable contamination, so they are the first to be placed in the operating room. Afterwards, as ordinary people, they naturally cannot continue to stay with the magical girls.
Otherwise, what if someone gets angry again or a dispute arises and someone dies?
If Cheng Xiaoyu were here, she could suppress them and allow them to meet, but Cheng Xiaoyu was not available. She was really busy.
As familiar people left one by one and never returned, the tension grew. Although the people in the Butterfly House comforted her, the magical girls in Hanamachi were generally very young and had witnessed many deaths and deaths, so they were prone to overthinking.
"I'm very busy, you talk to them yourself." Cheng Xiaoyu was in no mood to comfort the child. She really wanted to end the life and death assembly line right away, pull down the soul stabilizer and start the operation.
After the last magical girl came off the operating table, Cheng Xiaoyu took the recovery and training data of the previous dozens of magical girls during this period and returned to the room prepared by the Demon Slayer Corps to look through them carefully.
The good news is that after this period of rest and rehabilitation training at the Butterfly House, the physical coordination of the first batch of former magical girls who underwent surgery is slowly recovering, and they will be almost fully recovered after a one-month observation period.
This also means that if nothing unexpected happens, Haibara Yu will be able to return to his own timeline in a month.
It just so happened that Cheng Xiaoyu was a little curious about what Huiyuan Xiong had been doing during this period of time, so Cheng Xiaoyu decided to go and tell Huiyuan Xiong the news in person so that he could say goodbye to the friends he knew during this period of time.
I heard from Shinobu Kocho that Haibara Yu has been very close to Fuzuka Genya, the younger brother of Wind Pillar Fuzuka Minoru, and he will visit Genya in the afternoon, so he may be at the Rock Pillar's residence now...
Cheng Xiaoyu: "Wait, isn't Fuzukawa Xuanya the Wind Pillar's younger brother? Why is he living in the Rock Pillar's residence?"
Shinobu Kocho: "I'm not too sure. Wind Pillar Busui used to be famous for not liking his brother. Xuanya didn't have any talent for breathing techniques. At first, he kept trying to find Busui, but every time they met, he would say some very harsh words, saying that he never had a brother or something. I also heard from the children in the Butterfly House that Wind Pillar Busui suddenly admitted that Xuanya was his brother some time ago. I heard that he has been running to the Rock Pillar's residence recently, but he just circles outside and never goes in."
Cheng Xiaoyu felt that this description was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't really put her finger on it: "Did you say that in front of Xuan Mi?"
Shinobu Kocho: "No. And it's not just the Wind Pillar. Kasumi Pillar Tokito also suddenly said a while ago that he had a brother... No, strictly speaking, he remembered that he had a brother. To be honest, if there weren't some signs that made sense between these two before, I would have to suspect that some extraterrestrial creature that could affect human cognition had appeared again."
Brothers are not mushrooms in the ground that can pop up at any time.
Number 233's scalp tingled at the thought of something nonsensical. He quickly checked the world data again, and after confirming that there was no problem, he came back and joked, "Actually, I think they should first suspect whether there is a member of the Demon Slayer Corps named Itadori rather than the outsider creatures."
