Sauichiro: rebuilding Ashina from the obliteration of the pillar

Chapter 31

"Ugh-"

"Dang dang dang dang!"

"The train is moving! Passengers please sit down."

Before Xianichiro had time to reach out his hand, a sudden push forward and a loud noise appeared almost at the same time, causing him to slam backwards, his back pressed against the backrest.

On the other hand, Butterfly Kanae seems to be used to going out by train, and there is still a smile on her calm and stable face.

"What's the matter? Is it the first time for the kid to travel far by train?"

Genichiro nodded, feeling a little dizzy looking at the scenery passing by outside the window in just a few seconds.

I have long heard that this so-called train can travel thousands of miles in one day, but I never thought it would be so much more comfortable than riding a horse, as I only need to sit in it.

Although it is a bit noisy.

But compared to the speed, this is hardly a shortcoming. As long as you get used to the clanging rhythm, you will feel much more comfortable immediately.

Just like blacksmithing in Weiming.

"By the way, I just heard from you that your name is Kenichiro Ashina?"

"Xianichiro. It's such a nice name, it has a samurai charm in it."

Butterfly Kanae didn't seem to care about Genichiro's cold face, and started to talk on her own.

"But this Wei name, is it the Wei name of the 'Wei Ming chicken' that was mentioned in the newspaper?"

"Yes."

Genichiro is very satisfied with the current situation.

Now when people hear Weiming, they no longer have the expression of "I don't know what a small place I haven't heard of" before.

This is enough to show that the commotion they made at the zoo before was indeed deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

At least when people hear these two words now, curiosity pops up in their eyes, rather than contempt and disinterest.

"Although I've never heard of this place before, it's amazing to think about it."

Kanae obviously looked gentle, but suddenly her upper body leaned forward, and her pair of harmless eyes seemed to see Genichiro's heart instantly.

"Not only are there big cocks that can beat polar bears, but there are also schoolchildren who can easily beat adults with coins."

She was completely teasing and amazed, but Genichiro immediately felt a lot of pressure.

He was going to explain.

"It's not that they took my place first..."

"Not."

Xianichiro only spoke half of a sentence before being gently interrupted by Kanae, "As I said before, I am a doctor and I think I am doing a good job. Due to the needs of my work, I like to observe the people around me very much." .”

"When you got in the car, you were facing me, and I could see it clearly."

"When you found out the place was taken, you were going to change it until..."

Kanae raised the long knife wrapped in cloth from the window, "It wasn't until you found this thing that you came over with a purpose."

"And then fiercely cut the man's neck."

[I was, discovered! 】

Although Genichiro knew that women were careful, he didn't expect that the pillar of the Demon Slayer Squad could observe so carefully while telling jokes with others!

Sure enough, not everyone in this organization is as ordinary as Murata.

"Although it's the first time I was approached by the opposite sex because of my luggage and not my appearance."

"But kid," Kanae narrowed her eyes, "can you tell me why? Shouldn't ordinary people stay away when they see samurai swords? Why do you still take the initiative to come up to me?"

Although Genichiro showed some telltale signs, he didn't panic.

Now is not the time to reveal your purpose.

"I just started practicing swords recently." Genichiro replied, "Seeing the similar shapes, I'm a little interested."

"And I'm not bad at observation. You don't look like a bad guy."

"Really? I feel so happy to be trusted so much."

Butterfly Kanae stared at Genichiro for a while, then suddenly said, "Please show me your hand."

Genichiro had 1 reasons not to reach out, but the other party's strange affinity made him stretch out his right hand.

"It's really strange. It's true that the hand that held the sword recently was right."

Kanae's fingertips touched the skin at the base of Senichiro's palm, "But beginners make a lot of mistakes, so the skin here, here, and here is usually worn away, but you don't have any."

"Like an old hand who just started to touch the sword."

She clicked a few places, and Genichiro nodded silently.

When he first started practicing sword standing, it was true that those places were most likely to be injured.

"It seems that you have a very powerful swordsmanship teacher, no wonder the police call you young master."

Kanae returned her hand to Genichiro, "But, as a doctor who has treated many patients, why do I always feel that you are hiding something?"

"But everyone has their own secrets, so I won't take the liberty to pursue them."

Genichiro's heart that had just been mentioned was instantly put down again.

If Kanae continues to ask, he may only be able to tell the truth, but with the temperament of the Ghost Killing Team, I am afraid that he will never bring an unrelated person to find a ghost.

Let alone a child.

Now that I voluntarily give up, that's fine.

"Looking at your relieved look, it's so cute, very similar to my sister."

"younger sister?"

Genichiro didn't expect that the members of the Demon Slayer Squad actually have family members?
Doing a job that is more dangerous than a military general in the Warring States Period, can you really rest assured your family, or let your family rest assured?

"Yes, she is 14 years old this year, but she is a little thin, she looks about your age."

Butterfly Kanae talked about her younger sister, she looked a little happy, "However, she is more talented as a doctor than me, but she has a bit of a stubborn temper."

"I've always wanted her to be a better doctor with peace of mind, but she wants to do the same job as me. It's really distressing."

[So, are they actually the medical staff of the Ghost Killing Squad? 】

"Miss Kanae, are you going to visit your sister by train?"

Genichiro didn't intend to continue the conversation, he had to find out Kanae's destination quickly.

"No, my sister lives with me. I am traveling this time because I want to know about some friends."

Speaking of friends, the worry in Butterfly Kanae's eyes flashed away.

"What about you? What are you going to do with such a small amount of things alone?"

"I'm going to Kumamoto Prefecture." Genichiro said, "soak in the hot springs."

"What a coincidence."

Kanae laughed again, "Looks like we're going to get off at Kumamoto together, Kid Genichiro."

"But if you want to go to a hot spring, there are dozens of hot spring villages in Kumamoto, which one do you want to go to?"

【This is exactly what I intend to ask you! 】

Genichiro thought in his heart.

"It's my first time going there too, and I wanted to hear the opinions of the locals, but since Ms. Kanae asked, do you have any recommendations?"

He pushed the question back again.

"Well... As for the hot springs, I'm more familiar with the ones in Oita Prefecture."

Genichiro understood, after all, Oita Prefecture is where the Demon Slayer Squad's trial place is Fujishiyama.

"But for Kumamoto, I don't know where you should go, but I know a thing or two about where you shouldn't go."

【The place she won't let me go to should be the village with ghosts...】

Genichiro thought so.

Saying that, Butterfly Kanae took out a newspaper from the seat next to her.

Turned to the page of the ad.

"Look, there's a place called Izumi Village."

"It is said that in order to attract customers, some kind of outdoor mixed bathing gimmick was used."

"A child like you is absolutely not allowed to go to that kind of hot spring village."

Before she finished speaking, Butterfly Kanae covered her mouth and laughed, obviously very satisfied with her joke.

Genichiro: "..."

"What's the matter? You look disappointed. I thought you would be shy."

[I'm already past that age. 】

Genichiro didn't want to talk to Butterfly Kanae anymore, so he took out a food box from the salute.

I plan to rely on Kuro's dim sum to soothe my lumpy mood.

But he forgot one thing, that is, even if he eats inside, he still uses glowing rice poured from a gourd.

But the moment he opened the food box, the train happened to enter a cave.

Therefore, the bright dim sum here immediately became the biggest light source on the car!

"Hey, what is that!"

"Fireflies? But fireflies don't have red ones, do they?"

"What fireflies, that's Yoshiwara's most famous light-up dessert!"

Perhaps because of the darkness, the passengers actually yelled.

So when the train was filled with sunlight again, Genichiro looked a little embarrassed.

He forgot about it, making himself like the animals being watched in the zoo.

"Yeah, what a treat."

Kanae seemed to see his embarrassment, and asked with a smile, "Can I have one?"

"It doesn't matter if you want to eat."

Genichiro quickly opened the food box, put two pink ones on the lid and handed them over.

The latter was also polite, and immediately picked it up and sniffed it under his nose.

"Well, this taste seems to be similar to ordinary rice..."

Kanae is an expert in medicinal materials, and she can see the way of five-color rice at a glance.

"However, why does it change color and glow?"

Genichiro knew that the time to earn reputation points had come.

"The shining rice is the same as the Weiming chicken. It is a specialty of Weiming. Among them, the rice is watered from the source water, and it has been blessed by Weiming's son of God to become like this."

"Oh? Son of God?"

Kanae seemed to be interested, she gently opened the snack, stuffed a small piece into her mouth, and chewed slowly.

"Hmm...it's a little sweeter than the usual rice, but the overall taste of the dim sum is indeed very authentic."

The second half of the sentence, with her character, naturally she would not say it.

That is, in other respects, it seems to be no different from ordinary rice.

"The red one here should be Hagi cake."

"Although it's a bit presumptuous to say that for the first time."

Butterfly Chanae said apologetically, "But this snack, can I keep it for a friend?"

"He likes to eat hagi cakes the most. If it is this kind of delicious and shiny hagi cakes, I am afraid that even if he encounters any difficult situation, it can cheer him up."

【She said, it should be one of the missing members...】

"Of course, if you don't mind, I'll put it in this food box later, and I'll leave these hagi biscuits for him."

Although Genichiro likes this taste very much.

"That's a big thank you."

Kanae put her palms together sincerely, "Little friend, you are indeed a gentle person, not as cold as you seem on the surface."

"gentle?"

"Can you give such a precious snack to a stranger you've never met, isn't that considered gentle?"

Genichiro hesitated for a while, he just wanted to open up the topic.

He avoided talking about gentle things, but asked this friend of Butterfly Kanae.

"According to Ms. Kanae, it seems that your friend has encountered any difficulties? Is he the target of your trip to Kumamoto this time?"

Butterfly Kanae thought of that scarred face, and the worried expression in her eyebrows finally emerged completely.

"That's right. Some people think that they are more capable, so they can disobey the doctor's orders and run around, causing many people to worry about them for no reason."

[For her to care so much, could it be another pillar? 】

【Could it be that it was Twelve Ghost Moons who were dealt with this time? ]
"Sounds like a great guy."

Genichiro said.

"He is very powerful. Although he looks rough and violent on the surface, he is very gentle in his heart. He is the kind of person who will not hesitate to hurt himself in order to save others. But it is precisely because of this that it is more reassuring. No more."

Speaking of this, Kanae exerted force on her hands, and even the snacks were deformed.

She immediately realized her gaffe, and immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, I said something that bothered you."

"It's okay." Genichiro squeezed out a smile.

[In the end, I still didn't find out which village had the problem! 】

"Miss Kanae, you are going to Kumamoto to find this person."

"Ah." Kanae nodded, "But not only him, but also some other friends, they all need my help."

"Is it in the city? In such a big place, it would be very troublesome to find someone. Maybe I can help."

Butterfly Kanae suddenly became quiet, with a pair of clear and bright eyes, she carefully looked at Genichiro.

【Would it be a bit too aggressive, and the problem was discovered...】

"Although it's not very good to say that, but compared to other young masters from rich families, Genichiro, you are very kind."

Butterfly Kanae's tone was like a gentle elder, "However, they should be in the villages around Kumamoto, and I can find them myself, so I don't need to bother you."

[Sure enough, the code of conduct of the Ghost Slayer Squad still doesn't want to involve those ordinary people. 】

"Well then, I hope you and your friend are doing well."

Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in Xianichiro's mind, and his voice changed, "But since it is a nearby village, maybe we will meet in a village at that time!"

This time, Butterfly Kanae's face finally became serious.

correct.

Isn't Genichiro just looking for a hot spring village?
If you happen to find the house where the team member had an accident, you are very likely to be in danger.

Not to mention, he was still alone.

So, after hesitating again and again, Butterfly Kanae still gave a "travel suggestion".

"Well, I remembered, a friend of mine told me about it before."

She doesn't lie often, so her face is a little unnatural, "I heard that there have been many incidents of wild animals attacking tourists in the most popular Xinquan Village in Kumamoto recently."

"In the past two years, 30 to [-] people have disappeared intermittently, and all of them are missing. Even the bodies have not been found."

"If Kid Genichiro is going to travel, it's not a good place."

【finally! 】

【Is it new to Spring Village? ]
【I see. 】

[In this way, a lot of time can be saved. 】

But Genichiro perfectly concealed the excitement in his heart, showing a look of deep approval.

"I know, I will definitely not go to Xinshangquan Village."

Butterfly Kanae showed a satisfied smile.
