Sauichiro: rebuilding Ashina from the obliteration of the pillar

Chapter 34 You are good at killing ghosts, I am good at killing

Genichiro came out of the hot spring, rushed through the water, put on his clothes and walked out. After opening the paper door of the room, he saw Butterfly Kanae sitting at the low table with an expression ready to preach.

It's not like discussing my sister's marriage at all.

However, even if she tried her best to make her look serious, those clear and gentle eyes would destroy all her efforts.

"Oh, did I dodge their apology?"

Genichiro sat down, looking normal, and poured a cup of tea for himself and Butterfly Kanae.

The so-called them, of course, refers to the boss, the boss's wife and the boss's son's family.

At noon, the owner of the hotel, Yuya, was beaten by Genichiro and fell into the snow and was breathless. It was Kanae who rescued him with superb medical skills.

After the proprietress came out and learned what had happened from the village chief, she knew that it was definitely not the guest's problem, so she immediately reprimanded the father and son.

After all, according to the village chief, Genichiro just "pushed" the drunken Yuya in order to protect the weak woman.

The proprietress also said that when her husband regained consciousness, he would make a formal apology.

And Xianichiro simply took the fire extinguishing powder and soaked in the hot spring for a long time, trying to avoid the embarrassing scene.

Even during this period, he successfully defeated Haruta Zaoji in the real mode, gaining +1 attack power level.

To be honest, he didn't know why he suddenly attacked an ordinary person at noon.

Thinking about it carefully, maybe it was because he was worried that the style would be attacked again and completely lose his ability to fight.

After all, judging by her appearance, she didn't seem to intend to protect herself.

Seeing Genichiro's indifferent appearance, Butterfly Kanae decided to act like when she occasionally taught her sister a lesson.

"How can you hit someone so hard?"

Kanae thought of the ripples oscillating in the air, and felt scared for a while, "Do you know that if you hit Boss Yuya's heart, he may die!"

"Oh, then what should I do? Could it be that you want to be like this morning, when a child almost broke his finger with a pole, and couldn't even hold a knife?"

Genichiro sipped his tea, retorted Kanae with an extremely calm expression, and looked pointedly at her bandaged right middle finger.

Besides, there was no one else around at the moment, and he no longer planned to hide his true purpose.

"If you can't hold a knife, how can you kill ghosts? Miss Huazhu."

"you……"

Rao, with Butterfly Chana Hui's usual dignified and stable posture, was suddenly pointed out by a child who had always thought she was just a little mysterious, and she couldn't help but lose her color for a moment.

"Do you know who I am?"

[Acquired from the style... 1500 points]

At this time, all the details since meeting Genichiro quickly appeared in Butterfly Kanae's mind bit by bit.

She finally understood why this purposeful child approached her on the train.

The other party was asking all kinds of questions on the train, not to find a suitable hot spring at all, but to know her destination!
"So, you've been lying to me since the beginning?"

Kanae hid her surprise in her heart, she felt a little uncomfortable being used by such a child.

"If I don't use some special means, how can you tell me what happened in this village according to the rules of your Ghost Killing Squad?"

Genichiro didn't mean to be embarrassed at all, this kind of thing is not even a dark history for him who is called "Sanichiro".

Butterfly Chanae sat up straight, took a few deep breaths, and the gentleness in her eyes finally subsided a bit.

"Then, Master Genichiro Ashina, why did you come to this village?"

Strange Ashina Chicken.

Weird glowing treats.

Martial arts far beyond ordinary people.

A character and follower with a face of indifference to life.

Butterfly Kanae began to wonder whether this mysterious child in front of him has anything to do with ghosts?

"Please don't let your imagination run wild."

Genichiro interrupted the other party's brainstorming, "My purpose is the same as yours, just to find those missing people."

"Among the missing ghost killers, one named Murata is my benefactor."

"I have been unable to contact him through the hidden troops of the Wisteria Hana family. I only know that the last time he appeared was in a village in Kumamoto."

"As for meeting you on the train, it was purely my good luck brought by the heavens, so naturally there is no reason to let it go."

"As for what's next, you already know."

Because of the lessons learned from being cheated, Butterfly Kanae stared at every movement of Genichiro the whole time to judge whether he was lying.

But based on years of experience with patients, Genichiro told the truth this time.

In this way, she finally let go of her tugged heart, "So that's how it is."

"I didn't expect a person like Mr. Murata to have such a glorious experience."

"If Genichiro knew that you wanted to know his safety so urgently, he should feel that his work is very valuable!"

Genichiro: "..."

[Why do they both say that about Murata! 】

[Is he really so untrustworthy? 】

"but."

Butterfly Kanae changed her voice and frowned, "Since you have received help from Murata, you should understand that ghosts are a very dangerous thing!"

"Even if you came to this place rashly with the intention of repaying your kindness, it is really too reckless."

"So for the sake of your safety, please go home. As for the search for the missing team members, it is my duty."

Genichiro was unmoved.

"You Ghost Killing Squad is not a policeman, so you have no reason to order me."

Butterfly Chanae was a little helpless.

Usually, when encountering people who receive help from the Ghost Killing Team, most of them will listen to them. After all, no matter how sad or angry they are, they are inherently afraid of ghosts.

But Xianichiro seems to be a kid who likes to make up his mind, and it seems that he doesn't even care about his own life. I really don't know how to explain it to him.

"Besides, if you want to find them quickly, I'm the only help you can use."

"Help?"

Butterfly Kanae said suspiciously: "Although I know that you know some martial arts, Genichiro, I'm afraid you can't help me much."

"It doesn't have to be able to kill ghosts to be considered helpful. The same is true for intelligence."

"If I remember correctly, Ms. Kanae probably couldn't even dig out some information from the villagers before I arrived."

Butterfly Chanae: "..."

This time things are really special.

I don't know what the ghost killers who were active here before caused such hostility from the local villagers.

And this has become the biggest obstacle to her investigation.

"I'm afraid you don't know yet."

Genichiro lowered his eyebrows, "Just after you were kicked out of this hotel in the morning, she sent her son, Yamasuke, to inform the owners of each hotel that they must conceal information about the Demon Slayers."

"what?"

Butterfly Kanae didn't know if she really couldn't figure it out, or she didn't dare to think like this at all.

"But how do you know that?"

"I have my own channel."

Genichiro was calm and confident, "And you still remember, the village chief said that before the members of the Demon Slayer Squad left, they warned the tourists who took a bath here that there was something wrong with the hot spring."

Butterfly Chanae nodded, "So what?"

"This shows that the ghost killing team members may have discovered that the hot springs are related to ghosts, but they were unable to find out which ghost to kill him."

"Otherwise, based on the code of conduct of your Ghost Killing Squad, how could you carry out such a large-scale evacuation, not to mention, this is related to the economic lifeline and reputation of a village?"

Butterfly Chanae is a very clever person, and immediately figured out the key.

"You, you mean..."

There was some disbelief in her eyes.

"Yes."

Xianichiro asserted, "I have just experienced the hot spring here. The color is very clear, but it has no smell, and the temperature can be called excellent. It is so good that it is abnormal."

"It is no exaggeration to say that it is the best hot spring in Japan for the feeling of lingering and forgetting."

"However, such a hot spring came into people's sight only two or three years ago."

"So it can almost be concluded that the appearance of the hot springs in Xinshangquan Village must have an inexplicable relationship with ghosts."

"The disappearance of members of the Ghost Killing Squad is most likely the result of the alliance between the villagers and the ghosts."

"And those who disappeared in the past are just sacrifices in the village to maintain the continued existence of this hot spring!"

Butterfly Kanae heard Genichiro's guess, her lips trembled: "This is impossible."

When she thought about it, it was inconceivable that humans would cooperate with ghosts.

Generally speaking, ghosts regard humans as food, and the relationship between the two is almost irreconcilable.

She has only heard of ghosts forcing humans to do terrible things, but she has never seen a situation where people use ghosts for profit.

What's more, this is a whole village of people.

"You still remember what he said before you were beaten by that child in the morning."

"In this village, people didn't even have enough to eat before, but since the hot springs became available, their lives have improved dramatically. It's precisely because of this that they are hostile to the man in black who destroyed the situation."

"You said that in order to maintain this kind of life, the villagers contributed a few irrelevant people who even wanted to destroy this kind of life..."

"Is there anything impossible?

Genichiro knows the tragedy of Shuisheng Village. He has seen the undead settlement that provides "food" for Eldridge in "Black Soul 3", and the townspeople of Yanan who are obsessed with blood therapy in "Blood Origin", and he knows that human beings are enough Do terrible things.

Coupled with the previous incident where the water ghost Haruta created himself, the human naval hero Fujita Emasa looked even more terrifying.

Therefore, based on limited information, he weaves the darkest truth of Xinshangquan Village in his mind.

"It's all just speculation on your part."

Butterfly Kanae has a gentle heart and can't help but defend these villagers.

"I will never accept the truth."

"The more people who have experienced that kind of difficult life, the more they know how to respect the lives of others."

"In order to make my life better, and then cooperate with ghosts, and then live in guilt all my life, this is definitely not a way of life that people can accept!"

Butterfly Kanae speaks righteously, and indeed thinks so.

If it was her, she would rather be killed and eaten by ghosts than to trade other people's lives for living.

"Then what are you going to do?"

Genichiro was a little annoyed.

"You know, Murata and the others have been missing for three or four days. Even if they weren't killed by ghosts, they were just trapped somewhere and their lives would be in danger if they didn't eat for three or four days!"

"In such an emergency situation, how do you plan to find out the whereabouts of the team members as soon as possible?"

"If you blindly listen to these villagers and use lies as clues, you will only waste more time."

Butterfly Kanae knew that Genichiro was right.

Even if they weren't cooperating with the ghosts, but were just unwilling to provide useful information, she'd just spend a lot of time searching around.

But in this case, the chances of survival of the team members will be greatly reduced.

"Could it be that Genichiro, can you hear the truth from them?"

Xianichiro was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "You won't like it."

"Things can be handed over to my people. At that time, you only need to find someone according to the location."

Butterfly Kanae immediately thought of the middle-aged man who was beside Genichiro, who looked indifferent to life, and immediately understood Genichiro's "method".

Left and right are methods of obtaining confessions such as torture.

"Absolutely not!"

Kanae got really angry, stood up suddenly from the ground, and looked down at Genichiro.

"Although I don't know why you think of people so evil!"

"But I will never allow you to hurt the villagers here!"

"Every one of our Ghost Slayer members has the consciousness to sacrifice himself in order to save others!"

"If this method is used, even if Murata is rescued, they will never forgive themselves."

Genichiro's eyes became completely indifferent, and he slowly stood up from the ground.

"The purpose of my coming here is to keep Murata alive."

When he said this, he obviously got really angry, because Butterfly Kanae's stubbornness simply exceeded his imagination.

He could of course continue to let the rogues eavesdrop, but who knows how long it will take to hear about ghosts, and who to eavesdrop on.

Grab a few people who are most likely to know, torture them separately, and compare their confessions. This is the fastest and safest way right now!

"Miss Kanae, Murata's survival is very important to me. If you don't want to help me, it's best not to stand in front of me."

Genichiro opened the door, as if seeing off the guests.

"Maybe you guys are good at killing ghosts."

"But I'm good at killing people."

The room built on the edge of the hot spring, because of Genichiro's words, seemed to be completely frozen and frozen.

Butterfly Chana Hui couldn't believe it, hearing such words from a child's mouth, a chill surged from behind and quickly wrapped her whole body.

She knew that Genichiro was not talking in anger.

In order to achieve his goal, he will do anything.

But inexplicably, her eyes became gentle again, as if she saw something beautiful being beaten to pieces.

She took two steps forward, suddenly squatted down in front of Genichiro, and took his hand.

"Although I don't know what you have gone through to have such hostility towards people."

"But please give me some time to think about whether there is a better way to find out their whereabouts."

Butterfly Kanae's sympathetic gaze made Genichiro turn away in pain.

"I'll give you one day."

"Tomorrow night, if your method doesn't work, I'll do it my way."

"……it is good."
