Control the Butterfly Effect from Demon Slayer: Blade

Horitake understood Sergeant Eguchi's thoughts very well:

"Sergeant Eguchi, I understand you, the blood is not dry, the heart is not cold, and I want to take advantage of the remaining enthusiasm to do something meaningful for people.

But after all, you have already started a family, and this time the situation is particularly dangerous, so you still don't want to get involved.

Leave the rest to me, and Sheriff Eguchi waits for good news.

Horigaku's words have come to this point, and Sheriff Eguchi has no choice but to accept Horigaku's kindness:

"Well, thank you."

Horitake was about to turn around and leave, when the witch surnamed Yuyin from before came over, she smiled lightly, temporarily retained Horigaku, and said to him:

"Sir, before work, would you like to pay homage to the god Inari to pray for blessings?"

Hearing the witch sister say this, Horitake couldn't help but look at the main hall where the god Inari was enshrined.

As mentioned before, Horitake is still a Chinese person in his bones, and he is not interested in these Japanese gods.

Of course, the words in his heart could not be said directly, and he smiled at the witch sister:

"I still don't want it."

Inari God is in charge of commerce and agriculture.

And my job is to fight, to lick blood at the knife's edge, and to be in danger all day, and the nature of my work is incompatible with what Inari God is in charge of.

Undeterred, the witch moved over the large signing box next to her and made another proposal to Horitake:

"It doesn't matter if you don't pay homage, so please draw a lot and predict the fortunes of your work."

Looking at this huge signing box, Horitake was speechless for a while.

In Horigaku's heart, he didn't plan to link his work and battle to his so-called fortune, after all, fortune is a mysterious thing, and it's really not good to say.

And the draw, which represents fortune, is not good.

If a good draw is drawn, but the result is not good, what is the use of this good signature?

If you draw a bad lot, the result will be aside, and after the bad lot, you will be in a bad mood and suffer from gains and losses, which will affect your next work and battle.

Horitake originally wanted to refuse, but seeing the eyes of the witch lady in front of him, Horitake didn't know what was going on, so he suddenly thought of the fox he had just stroked.

A ghostly emotion appeared in Horitake's heart.

Do you want...... Draw a lot?

Horitake hesitated for a moment and said, "

How much?"

The witch lady replied with a smile:

"One hundred yen a sign."

"Well, it's not expensive at all."

Saying this, Horitake took out a coin, paid it to the witch, and then stuffed his hand into the signing box and randomly drew a lot from it.

Open this sign and see that there are two big characters written on it, Xiaoji.

Ah, the so-called Xiaoji actually means ordinary luck.

Looking at this Xiaoji signature, Horiyue was slightly speechless in his heart, and sure enough, this signature had no meaning at all.

Well? Wrong.

Horitake took a closer look, and next to the two characters of this sign Xiaoji, there was another line of small print for comment.

This small line of print reads:

Break the delusion and endure.

"Break the illusion and last..."

Horitake involuntarily pronounced this line.

His intuition told him that these eight words seemed to have a different meaning.

But reason told him that believing in such things would only bother him.

After thinking about it, Horitake folded this signature and put it in his arms, as if he had never drawn this signature!

Nodding to the witch and nodding to Sheriff Eguchi over there, Horitake officially said goodbye to the two and left the Inari Shrine.

The moment he left the shrine, Horitake's heart became firm again, leaving all the mysterious things in the shrine behind, and he was firm in his heart and not moved by foreign objects.

Patting the map in his arms, Horitake thought to himself:

With this map, it is much easier to say.

Although it is daytime now, there are daytime benefits, and ghosts will not make trouble at this time anyway, and they can take advantage of this time to check in the past, hoping to find out the clues.

Thinking like this, Horitake rushed to this Chengying Library.

Because of the abundance of time, Horitake was also unhurried when he walked over.

Soon, in the afternoon, Horitake came to this area, which is the area with the highest concentration of red dots on the map.

Standing on the side of the street, Horitake looked around his surroundings.

Sure enough, this area is not only this library, but also many houses and shops, it can only be said that this library is the most conspicuous in this area.

The library is the most suspect, but the suspicion in other places around cannot be ruled out.

In that case, let's go over and check them out one by one.

Horitake turned on his spiritual vision and walked in turn, looking around to check the situation in the area.

In this area, whether it is an ordinary house or an ordinary shop, there is no abnormality, and there is no trace of ghosts.

If there is anything wrong, it is that the people in these shops and houses are all stunned, completely unable to lift their spirits, and look low and sad.

In fact, it is also understandable that this area is the area with the densest red dots on the map.

The red dot on the map means that someone in this family is missing.

That is to say, many people here are missing, how can their families be happy?

Looking at the surrounding situation, there is indeed nothing abnormal, then the rest, of course, is the library with the most suspects.

Standing in front of the tall library, Horitake looked up at the four- or five-story Western-style building with a certain aura of majesty.

Yes, the architectural style of this library is completely different from the traditional combined architecture of Kyoto, which is a library with Western-style architecture.

Even if Horitake turned on his spiritual vision, from the outside of the library, he couldn't see anything abnormal at all.

Then... Go inside and take a look?

Well, go inside and take a look! It's daylight anyway!

In line with the principle of being bold in the arts, Horitake ascended the first step and entered the door of this library.

The decoration in the library is also Western-style, and if you want to walk in, you don't need to change your shoes, you can enter directly.

Because it was the afternoon, the male librarian sitting at the front desk also looked unenergetic, squinting and holding his chin, as if dozing there.

The librarian saw that someone seemed to be coming, and he opened his eyes, and he didn't care that Horitake was carrying a knife around his waist, so he said directly in confusion:

"Huh? Oh...... Happy...... Welcome.

A variety of books are inside, so please feel free to check it out.

If you want to borrow a book, please register it here and return it on time, if it is damaged or lost, it must be compensated according to the price, this is our library's rule.

After saying this, the librarian fell asleep again.
