Chapter 185
In the Infinite Castle, a young man with long black hair like seaweed who was doing experiments in his laboratory, after receiving the news of Upper Six's death, instantly crushed another useless test tube in his hand and smashed it against the wall.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it." The young man's handsome face was now twisted with scarlet eyes that had stripped off their disguise and turned back into their original beast-like vertical pupils because of anger.
"What kind of trump card do the Demon Slayer Corps have? Why can this generation's Pillar-level Demon Slayer Corps be as strong as my Upper Rank Demon?"
"Why haven't they collected the internal information of the Demon Slayer Corps yet? Trash, trash, trash, trash!"
"No, we can't wait any longer. We must find the Demon Slayer Corps' trump card and their manager. We just need to get rid of them all... Naruto, use your ability to find them for me. If you can't find them, then you will die."
The young man roared alone in the laboratory.
If he didn't know the cause and effect, he would be like a stray dog, a wild beast locked in a prison. In order to escape from here, for freedom, he struggled hard with fate and never gave up.
However, in reality, it can only be said to be half and half.
It's true that he doesn't want to die, it's true that he wants freedom, and it's also true that he wants to always maintain his pride and elegance in front of others. However, if these things are what he envisions as him planning to control the entire Japan, become the only king here, and make all the people living on this land his source of food... then he might as well just become a beast trapped in a cage.
His bad temper did not make him calm down even after destroying a set of expensive experimental tools. When Mingnu, whose name was called, appeared with her head bowed respectfully, the entire laboratory had been completely destroyed by him.
Experimental equipment is very expensive. Take the one in front of us for example, it is not something that a wealthy family can afford.
Now, it was destroyed by Muzan Kibutsuji without blinking an eye. If he wanted to rearrange it, the property he had currently inherited from the wealthy family would not be enough.
If Qingxi were here, to put it more bluntly, the property of his family in his current human identity has basically been squandered by him and he has no money left.
If you want to have enough money again, you have to choose a new target and change your identity, commonly known as "the cuckoo occupying the magpie's nest."
Muzan Kibutsuji can receive the inner thoughts of every demon he transforms. This became clear to Mingnu after she saw him deal with several demons that displeased him.
Therefore, even if the other party kept destroying and killing ghosts in the infinite city she built using blood vampire magic, making it very dirty and making her feel very bad, she would try to empty her mind, not think about it, not complain, and not feel unhappy about him.
Because any ghost who had that kind of mood had been sent to hell by his own hands.
Mingnu waited for a while but didn't receive any further instructions from Muzan Kibutsuji, so she left.
Return to your room, wait quietly for the night to come, and then carry out the task assigned to you by the other party.
.
Time flies like a white horse. After a summer rain, the weather becomes hot and humid, and thunderstorms have become more frequent in recent times.
Because their arrival is so uncertain, the medical staff at the Butterfly House always complain.
Because of its uncertainty, they always have to rush to take back the clothes hanging outside before the rain falls. Often, the clothes and quilts are almost dry, but when a rain comes, they have to hang them out to dry again.
In the front yard of the crow house, a young man with flaming hair was running like a burning wind.
The back door was open, so he ran around the front yard and then ran out of the back door again, ran around the crow house, the butterfly house and a large area of woods, and finally returned to the front yard.
Qingxi looked down at the time. Well, very good, just over two minutes. He had run at least three or four kilometers. Kyojuro's speed was already comparable to that of a car.
At a normal rate, a year of recuperation would not be enough considering the injuries he suffered.
However, there are gourmet cells in his body. As long as he is fed with a steady supply of delicious food, the gourmet cells will become active, speeding up the body's metabolism and also speeding up the healing of injuries.
Injuries that would have taken a year or even longer to recover have now been almost fully healed within half a year. I can even start rehabilitation when my body is still stiff and inflexible.
Moreover, he was not the only one undergoing this type of rehabilitation, but four other patients were living in the ward together.
Among them, Giyu Tomioka should have recovered earlier than them, so he was the first to undergo rehabilitation.
Once again seeing the young man's running figure whizzing past his eyes, Qingxi thought for a moment and took out a pearl milk tea pear from his food backpack, inserted a straw into it, and lowered his head to sip the milk tea.
While chewing the chewy pearls, he leaned his head back slightly against the porch pillar and squinted his eyes.
This is the right way to accompany your boyfriend in his recovery.
Another half an hour passed, and Rengoku Kyojuro finally stopped in front of the girl. Sweat stuck to his face, and his kimono became loose because of his previous running, revealing his eight abdominal muscles covered with sweat.
The current Rengoku Kyojuro no longer has the cheerful and well-behaved feeling he usually has, but has become a bit more wild and bold.
"Would you like some milk tea?" Seeing that the boy's eyes were fixed on the half-drunk milk tea, Qingxi knew that he was thirsty, so he asked.
Rengoku Kyojuro withdrew his gaze from the straw, his eyes slightly widened, and he looked very happy. "Is it okay?"
Qingxi nodded.
Just as she was about to take out another Zhenzhu milk tea pear from her gourmet backpack, Rengoku Kyojuro lowered his head. To her surprise, he put the straw in his mouth and took a few sips to drink up the milk tea that Qingxi had left.
Feeling the pearl milk tea pear weighing more than a pound in her hand disappear visibly, even the translucent little pearls were sucked away, Qingxi's mood at this moment was jumping back and forth between "Kyojuro is drinking the milk tea I have drunk with the straw I have used" and "Kyojuro actually drank all my milk tea".
She didn't know whether to be ashamed or angry.
This straight guy definitely doesn’t know that for girls, if you like milk tea, you can share it with your boyfriend, but (emphasis), it’s just a small sip (emphasis), not letting you finish half of it in one breath (emphasis)! ! ! !
The joy of drinking sweet milk tea and chewing little pearls is gone...
Qingxi looked up and glared.
Rengoku Kyojuro looked confused, as if he had no idea what she was thinking.
"Hmm, what's wrong?"
Qingxi raised his hands to cover his face.
What are you doing?
It was obviously you, Kyojuro, who sucked away my "happiness", and now you are still giving me those cute big eyes.
Tell me, what kind of owl are you? I'll find out how to resist you later.
"Aki?" The girl's silence covering her face confused Rengoku Kyojuro. He thought something had happened to her, so he reached out and took her hands away from her face.
He lowered his voice and asked seriously, "Is there something that bothers you? Can you tell me?"
Qingxi was speechless for a moment when he looked at the boy's face.
What do you want her to say?
Is it that Kyojuro, you should drink less of my milk tea in the future? Or is it that Kyojuro, if you want to drink milk tea in the future, I will get you a whole one, so don't come and steal my little happiness?
It's so inappropriate for him to say this when he has such a serious expression.
It's like a beautiful woman wearing an elegant twelve-piece dress, but eating roasted sweet potatoes at a roadside stall.
She still has some dignity and would never say such words.
"Nothing." She said vaguely and tried to pass it over.
However, at this time, Rengoku Kyojuro kept asking questions as if he was possessed by a straight man.
"Okay, okay, let me tell you." Qingxi was at a loss as to what to do with the owl in front of him.
"Let me make this clear first." Before she spoke, she gave him a heads-up. "You told me to say this, Kyojuro, so you can't get angry or give me a sour face when the time comes."
Rengoku Kyojuro assured: "No."
Qingxi held up the empty pearl milk tea pear in her hand, with only the outer layer of skin left, in front of him, and said unhappily with a pout, "You drank it all."
Rengoku Kyojuro was stunned, looking as if he couldn't understand. "Aki, is this why you're unhappy?"
Qingxi nodded, "Yes, that's right."
Rengoku Kyojuro opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
Obviously, Ah Xi has never been stingy with the people around her, and she would think of sharing any delicious food with others. But now, why is she unhappy because she finished her milk tea for herself?
Owl's confusion was written all over her face. She raised her hand and stroked his half-tied bun, saying, "This is just a girl's protective attitude towards the food she likes. Kyojuro, you won't understand."
Rengoku Kyojuro: “???”
No, he can still understand protecting food.
What he couldn't understand was that it was Ah Xi who asked him if he wanted to drink.
Qingxi understood, so I was thinking of getting a new one for you.
She thought to herself.
However, when the words came to her lips, she couldn't explain it that way, so she said, "Just think of it as a girl's awkwardness and habit.
I want to share my favorite things, but I don’t want to share them all, so I just want to share small ones so that people can have a taste of them..."
Rengoku Kyojuro suddenly realized something, his eyes fell on the pear of pearl milk tea that he had drunk up in gulps, and his face was full of helplessness as if he had realized that he had done something wrong.
"It's okay." Qingxi comforted him and took out another bubble tea pear from her food backpack. "I have more here."
Rengoku Kyojuro: “…”
The boy was at a loss for words, and the expression on his face almost made him ask, "Axi, you obviously still have it, why are you still unhappy?"
Qingxi's eyes drifted a little as he said, "Yes, it is, but I'm still a little unhappy."
She took out a new straw and inserted it, then handed the Zhencha Milk Tea Pear to him and asked, "Would you like some? This is strawberry flavored."
Rengoku Kyojuro lowered his head, and this time, he only took a puff before looking up at her.
When Qingxi met those bright eyes, he read the words "I've tasted it, Ah Xi, you drink it."
Puff——
Qingxi couldn't help laughing out loud. She laughed so hard that she felt a little weak and was held in the boy's arms.
"Kyojuro, drink more. I've already finished half of that. If you finish this, I won't be able to eat dinner tonight," Qingxi said as she passed the pearl milk tea pear to him. "Drink more, drink more, and leave some of the round little pearls inside for me. I like to chew them."
Rengoku Kyojuro nodded.
