Where should I go after being transported to Demon Slayer?
Chapter 88 Miscalculation
"My dear wife, are you still hungry? If you are, you can continue eating." Tianyi took out a new Hagi mochi from his pocket and held it to Shinobu's lips.
Shinobu ate in small bites, saying as she walked, "Are you trying to fatten me up, aren't you?"
Tianyi scratched his head and said, "You're still cute even when you're chubby! I don't mind."
"I already asked, and people disappear every night. It's obviously the work of ghosts, isn't it?" Tianyi said speechlessly while eating Hagi mochi.
"Where did you get so many Hagi mochi? Tell me quickly!" Shinobu Kocho grabbed Tenichi by the collar and demanded.
"Seeing so many in the kitchen, I brought some over. It should be fine, right?" Tianyi said cautiously.
Shinobu's trembling body clearly showed that she was suppressing her anger.
"Are you trying to starve those injured swordsmen? You're taking so much at once, how are they supposed to eat?" Shinobu Kocho said angrily.
"No wonder there were so many less Hagimochi before, it turns out you took them all. You've been treating the Butterfly Mansion like a buffet." Shinobu Kocho shook her head helplessly. No wonder her allowance was getting less and less, it was all because of this guy.
The sky gaped in disbelief; it turned out that they had been discovered to have taken so many hagi mochi all along, but they didn't know who had taken them.
Tianyi silently reached into his clothes, took out a thick wad of cash, and presented it to Ren with both hands.
"Why did you bring this over? I won't forgive you so easily. I'm going to talk to my sister," Shinobu Kocho said without even looking up.
"Here is ten million, which I have saved for a long time," Tianyi said.
Shinobu Kocho didn't care at first, but she was completely stunned when she heard the amount.
"How much did you just say?" Shinobu asked again, uncertainly.
"Here is ten million, which I have saved for a long time."
Shinobu Kocho fell into deep thought. This guy gives me all his money as soon as he gets paid, how could he still have so much left?
Shinobu Kocho said uncertainly, "Did you go stealing something? You can't do that, you'll get arrested."
"No, no, this money is a reward from my lord because I brought useful intelligence. My lord originally said he would give me more, but I refused. If you want it, take it all. I promise I won't complain." Tianyi finished speaking all at once, and the heavy weight in his heart was lifted.
"I'll consider this your honesty. Don't let it happen again." Shinobu Kocho silently took out half of the money and stuffed it into her pocket.
"My dear wife, aren't you going to take it all?"
Shinobu Kocho shook her head. "I'll leave you some. Prepare more food for yourself in the future. Don't come to the Butterfly House to take any more. Those are for the wounded. If I catch you sneaking around taking food again, I'll break your legs."
Tianyi shuddered, subconsciously looked at his legs, and then let out a long breath.
The two continued to search the village, trying to find any suspicious places.
Just then, two hunters walked past them, talking to each other.
"Have you heard? Keijiro disappeared from his house without a trace last night. We can't even find him. It's really strange," the hunter on the right said, shaking his head.
"Isn't that right? The village is getting weirder and weirder. Many people have moved away. Maybe we should move next time. I have a feeling that the tigers in the mountains have become demons." The hunter on the left shook his head and said.
He listened very carefully, not wanting to miss a single word, and practically pressed himself against the hunter.
This scene startled the two hunters, who retreated in fear.
"Young man, what are you doing? If you're going to listen, why are you standing so close? You scared us both half to death," Zhang Benye said.
"I'm sorry, sir, I'm so sorry, sir," Tianyi said, bowing his head repeatedly, realizing that he had indeed acted rather strangely just now.
“No need for that, young man,” Zhang Benye said.
The hunter who was walking with Tianye had already left; he must have run away.
"Sir, could you tell me about your village? I'd like to know more," Tianyi said.
After thinking for a moment, Tianye still spoke.
“Our village is called Country Village. It was fine a month ago, but ever since that tiger demon came, the village has become unsettled. People disappear every night without even leaving a trace,” Zhang Bentianye paused for a moment before continuing.
“At first, no one suspected anything. They just thought they would come back soon. But more and more people disappeared. At least two disappeared every night. Moreover, the houses were not damaged. It was as if the people just vanished suddenly. We had to take it seriously. Later, we completely locked down the house and only dared to come out in the morning.” Zhang Benye finished speaking all at once.
Tianyi stood there for a moment, pondering. He couldn't understand how the ghost could have taken the person away if it hadn't broken down the door.
“A tiger? That seems unlikely. If it’s a monster, then it should be…” Tianyi said seriously.
“Monster? There can’t be monsters in the world. If it’s a demon, then maybe,” Zhang Benye nodded and said.
Uh
"Well, monsters are a type of monster too, okay?" Tianyi said speechlessly.
Zhang Benye scratched his head awkwardly, after all, he was just a hunter and didn't know anything about these things.
"What's your name?" Tenichi asked, watching Zhang Benye walk away into the distance.
"My name is Zhang Bentianye, understand?" Zhang Bentianye slowly disappeared from their sight.
"This ghost seems to be something special. It should be able to walk through walls, otherwise it wouldn't be able to damage the house. Can a ghost pick locks? That's obviously impossible," Tianyi joked.
"That's not necessarily true. It's possible that the ghost really can pick the lock," Shinobu Kocho said with a smile.
“We can do this, then this, then that, and we’ll definitely be able to lure the ghost out. Then what do we do?” Tianyi clapped his hands, and the two parted ways.
Tianyi stared at a fat man from a distance. After all, this fat man was all flesh, and who wouldn't love him?
"Sir, can you do me a favor? All I have to do is sit here tonight. If I succeed, all this money is yours." Tianyi pointed to a chair in the distance, indicating that he would give him the million yuan he had if he could sit here for one night.
"If you keep staring at me like that, I'll stare at you like that too, and then I'll stare at you like that too. If you don't leave, I'll stare at you like that too!" the fat man yelled before turning and walking away. (This guy clearly has a lot of grudges, and this fat man is incredibly well-mannered.)
Tianyi stood there dumbfounded. It seemed that these Japanese devils weren't greedy for money; they seemed more afraid of death. This mission was going to fail, and he would be ridiculed again when he got back.
"I miscalculated. It looks like I need to find someone else. I need to find someone who isn't afraid of death." Tianyi sat on the stool, propping his head up as he pondered. He had to find a reliable person.
Just then, a thought suddenly struck him: "Why don't I do it myself? Why am I looking for other people? How could I be so stupid?"
