The older sister in front of him didn't look scared like the third child. Instead, she looked at Tanjiro Kamado with an expression of interest.

"What? You sound so impressive, but you turn out to be just a kid."

"Wait a moment, I'll call someone for you."

The elder sister looked at Hengbei, smiled, and left.

After a while, a person whom Tanjiro Kamado had never seen before came out, wearing a plain kimono and yawning.

This was a very handsome young man with a slightly lazy look on his face. He glanced at Tanjiro Kamado and said:

"So it's you, little guy. Are you ready to go on the mission?"

"Well, you are?"

Tanjiro Kamado felt that the other party's tone was wrong, but he still asked.

"Hey, Shinobu Kocho, didn't you tell him that this is my mansion? Why are you asking me who I am?"

The handsome man set his eyes on Kocho Shinobu who was standing behind Tanjiro Kamado and spoke.

"Hmph." Shinobu Kocho snorted coldly and said to Tanjiro Kamado: "This guy is the Sound Pillar Uzui Tengen you are looking for."

"He is Uzui Tengen?"

Tanjiro Kamado opened his eyes wide, because now he naturally remembered the scene when he met Ubuyashiki Yoya. At that time, the Sound Pillar had exaggerated makeup, wore a diamond-studded headdress, and light blue beads next to the headdress.

Anyway, he was completely different from the handsome man in front of him.

"Well, there's no need for me to dress so formally at home."

Uzui Tengen stroked his forehead and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Well, it seems like you are quite satisfied with your look?!

Tanjiro Kamado moved his lips but still didn't speak.

Tengen Uzui didn't care about Tanjiro Kamado's reaction and opened the other half of the door as well.

"It's almost noon now, don't go out now, eat first and then talk about the specifics of the mission."

"This is a good opportunity for you to taste my wife's cooking."

Uzui Tengen walked into the yard with his arms folded across his chest. Tanjiro Kamado looked at Shinobu Kocho and asked:
"Is Uzui-san always like this?"

"Of course, you'll get used to it."

Shinobu Kocho didn't have any intention of being polite and walked into the yard first.

Tanjiro Kamado had no choice but to follow.

In the yard, Uzui Tengen was already sitting in front of a wooden table, and the older sister who had opened the door earlier was busy at the wooden table, bringing plates of rice balls to the table.

After seeing Tanjiro Kamado, he smiled at him.

At the same time, in addition to this person, there are two older sisters who are also busy with their own things.

"Just sit down first, it will be fine in a moment."

Uzui Tengen said casually, and after noticing the look in Kamado Tanjiro's eyes, he said with some pride:

"Gorgeous, right? They are all my proud wives."

"Both?"

Tanjiro Kamado opened his mouth slightly, and Uzui Tengen's words shocked him again.

"Of course, they are all excellent wives. You will know when you try the rice balls later."

Tengen Uzui took it as he pleased, but when he said these words, Shinobu Kocho's expression was not very good.

Before, among the group of people, the one she hated the most was Tengen Uzui.

After all, although the other party liked his wife very much, it was ultimately a situation where three wives served one husband, so she naturally didn't have a good impression of him.

Of course, just recently, the most annoying person became Fuzugawa Miyabi.

Tanjiro Kamado also remained silent, but he felt a little admiration for Tengen Uzui in front of him.

Soon, Uzui Tengen's three wives brought some dishes to the wooden table and announced that the meal was ready.

Although there are a lot of rice balls, everyone present is a martial artist, so quantity is not a problem.

The one who eats the most is Tanjiro Kamado.

When he was simply cultivating his body, Tanjiro Kamado could eat the food of ten people by himself without any pressure. Now that he has turned to cultivating his internal strength and emotional power, Tanjiro Kamado can already control his appetite, but if he can eat, he will still eat.

In a short while, all the rice balls and dishes on the table were eaten.

Tengen Uzui was surprised at Tanjiro Kamado's appetite, and then he gave Tanjiro Kamado affirmation, saying that it is inevitable for people who practice martial arts to eat a lot.

Soon, Uzui Tengen's three wives became busy again, while Tanjiro Kamado started talking about business.

"Let me first talk about the specific situation of Youkuo."

Uzui Tengen took the initiative to speak.

"I just took this mission casually at first. At that time, I had just dealt with a case of an evil ghost injuring someone. I heard that people often went missing in Youkuo, so I went there."

"After investigation, I am almost certain that the disappearances were caused by evil spirits."

"Why are you so sure?"

When Shinobu Kocho took over the mission, Tengen Uzui had not returned yet. He only gave a general idea of ​​what happened in the letter, so the specific situation was still unclear.

"Because several times, I almost ran into someone committing a crime, but each time I was a step too slow."

Uzui Tengen recalled:
"I am quite confident in my speed. If it was a human crime, they would not be able to dispose of the body in the time it takes me to get there. So only evil spirits could eat the body in such a short time."

"Later, I explored the surroundings and found that everyone said they had not encountered any suspicious persons. I was certain that the evil ghost must be hiding in the wandering area."

"According to you, we can't confirm the specific identity of the evil ghost now?"

Shinobu Kocho asked again.

"Yes, so the first thing we do when we go there is to find the true identity of the evil ghost."

Uzui Tengen nodded.

This is actually a very tricky matter. After all, there are many people in the brothel and many gossips are spread out. Many traces are also covered up by people coming and going, which means that the evil ghosts in there are not easy to find.

"It looks like this mission will take a little longer."

Shinobu Kocho was thoughtful. Judging from the current situation, this mission would definitely be a troublesome one.

After all, evil spirits can hide, so the Demon Slayer Corps certainly cannot kill the wrong person.

"Well, I want to say something."

Tanjiro Kamado raised his hand weakly.

"Oh, you have ideas too, tell me what you think."

Tengen Uzui looked at Tanjiro Kamado with interest. He had to admit that the other party was very strong, but when it came to collecting intelligence, Tengen Uzui didn't think that the other party was better than himself.

But after being defeated once, Shinobu Kocho had more thoughts.

After all, she had learned the details of Tanjiro Kamado's trial.

The most important point is how he was able to quickly find all the evil spirits and kill them in such a short time.

Unless he really possesses a treasure that can detect the location of evil spirits at any time.

Otherwise, no matter how you think about it, it seems unlikely that you will be able to accomplish the feat in the trial.

But subconsciously, Shinobu Kocho felt that this was a bit absurd. After all, the location of the evil spirits they knew was basically analyzed by the lord from bits and pieces of information.

How could Tanjiro Kamado alone overthrow a huge information network that had to be built up through reports from countless people from the Fuji family or through requests for help?

But the next second, Tanjiro Kamado expressed his thoughts:

"Don't worry, I have already figured out where the evil ghosts in the Flower Street are. This time, we can just go and kill them directly."

Uzui Tengen:?
Shinobu Kocho:?

"How is that possible? How did you know the true identity of the evil spirit?"

The two of them said it almost in unison, it was really a bit too outrageous.

After all, Tanjiro Kamado has never even been to the Yukou, so how could he know this information?

Uzui Tengen's eyes suddenly became sharp.

"Who are you? How do you know where the evil spirit is?"

he asked loudly.

There is only one person in the world who knows the specific identities of all evil spirits, and that is the King of Evil Spirits who has always existed beyond their sight.

However, Tanjiro Kamado is still at the headquarters, but he can know what is happening thousands of miles away. How can he not be shocked and suspicious?

"I have my own way of doing this. Mr. Ubuyashiki also knows about this. If you don't believe me, you can go ask Mr. Ubuyashiki."

Tanjiro Kamado was not at all panicked and directly pushed Ubuyashiki Kakuya in front of him.

Now that Ubuyashiki Yoshiya has completely agreed to cooperate with Lin Yu, he is naturally a trustworthy person, and he can also push all his problems to Ubuyashiki Yoshiya without any pressure.

When Uzui Tengen heard Tanjiro Kamado mention Ubuyashiki Yoya's name, his face did not look good.

Although he now had the urge to ask Ubuyashiki Kōya about it, his reason told him that Tanjiro Kamado was able to say this so calmly because he had the confidence to do so.

But the more easily Tanjiro Kamado said this, the more things he had to consider.

However, the confused mind was eventually suppressed by the name of Ubuyashiki Yoshiya.

In the end, he didn't say anything, but just stood up and said:
"I'll go get ready, and we'll set off soon."

"You seem to have questions as well. You can go to Mr. Ubuyashiki to verify these."

Tanjiro Kamado looked at Shinobu Kocho calmly.

Shinobu Kocho's thoughts drifted far away. She naturally saw that Tanjiro Kamado had reached an agreement with Ubuyashiki Kōya.

She couldn't help but wonder what had happened between Tanjiro Kamado and Yoya Uzumaki.

Although Ubuyashiki Yoya valued Tanjiro Kamado in the past, he definitely did not trust Tanjiro Kamado as much as he does now.

Although she was curious, she knew that even if she asked, there would be no result.

After all, Tokito Muichiro and Haimei Yumi were protecting Ubuyashiki Yoya before, and now something has been revealed without any news at all.

Either this matter is top secret, or even Tokito Muichiro and Beimei Yukimura Gyomei know nothing about it.

She turned her head away and said nothing.

I don't know why her emotions have become unstable since she was defeated by Tanjiro Kamado last time.

Tanjiro Kamado didn't care either.

However, he was also surprised when Lin Yu told him that he knew where the evil ghost hiding in Youkou was.

Youkuo is still far away from here, but Lin Yu can actually explore such a far place. Although he has long realized how powerful Lin Yu is, what he shows now makes him even more in awe of Lin Yu.

Not long after, Uzui Tengen also returned to the makeup he had during the meeting.

The three of them walked out of the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, each with their own thoughts, and quickly headed for the patrol camp.

By the time the three of them arrived at the entertainment center, it was already night. The area was still bustling with many geishas dressed in their best clothes, competing with each other for beauty. Uzui Tengen's strange decoration did not seem that conspicuous.

"Now we can tell you where the evil spirit is."

On the way, Tengen Uzui asked Tanjiro Kamado several times where the evil spirit was, but Tanjiro Kamado did not answer.

"You should take a rest first."

Tanjiro Kamado glanced at the two of them.

Although he did not use his full strength in this journey, Tengen Uzui could not do it. In order to keep up with Tanjiro Kamado's speed, Tengen Uzui obviously used a lot of strength. The headscarf on his forehead was wet with sweat, and he was breathing slightly.

As for Shinobu Kocho, her condition was even worse, she was sweating profusely.

So when Tanjiro Kamado said this, Tengen Uzui had no way to refute it.

Finally, the three of them found a noodle restaurant on the edge of the playground and sat down.

The noodle shop owner entertained them warmly, and at this moment there was a commotion outside.

The three of them couldn't help but look outside, and saw that the whole Flower Street seemed to be boiling with people and a lot of noise.

"Boss, what's going on outside?"

Uzui Tengen couldn't help but ask.

"Well, you are new to the flower street, so of course you don't know this. This is a monthly parade of the Oiran. Many customers naturally gather to see the beauty of the Oiran."

The boss explained.

"Oiran? Humph, although she is gorgeous, she is not as gorgeous as my wife."

Uzui Tengen stroked his chin and sucked on the noodles.

There was disgust in Shinobu Kocho's eyes as well. She never had a good impression of geishas who wore scantily clad clothes.

However, Tanjiro Kamado's eyes flickered, because Lin Yu told him that the evil ghost had transformed into an oiran named Warabihime.

Perhaps the evil ghost is among the parade.

"I'll go out and take a look."

Tanjiro Kamado pretended to be a young boy and put down his bowl and chopsticks.

The boss burst into laughter:

"Haha, you are interested in the Oiran."

Uzui Tengen didn't think it was a big deal.

The sharp-minded Shinobu Kocho noticed something was wrong.

But she didn't say anything, but ate noodles quietly, because the previous journey had taken up too much of her energy.

Tanjiro Kamado walked out of the noodle shop and squeezed into the crowd. Under his power, the crowd was easily separated. People's curses could not resist Tanjiro Kamado's power.

Soon, Tanjiro Kamado saw the parade.

First, ordinary geishas led the way, followed by strong men carrying the oiran's mount forward.

If you continue to move your eyes upwards, you will be able to see the so-called Oiran.

The oiran was dressed gorgeously, and she would show off her dancing moves or her figure. Every time she made a seductive move, she would draw cheers from the crowd.

And Tanjiro Kamado has been looking for his own eyes.

Soon his eyes narrowed.

I saw a larger parade coming slowly from behind. (End of this chapter)
