Zongman: My five senses are connected with the proud daughter of the world

A hint of surprise flashed across Jiang Lianqiu's eyes.

"Only after destruction can there be rebirth?"

But Jiang Lianqiu quickly suppressed his strange feeling and said to the still dazed Kocho Shinobu, "Let's go, your sister has fainted again."

"elder sister!!!"

Butterfly Shinobu was startled and stood up hurriedly. She looked at Jiang Lianqiu with a worried look on her face while coughing violently.

"What happened to my sister?"

"You're not fully recovered yet, and you're asking me to do something, so naturally this is happening. Hurry back to the Butterfly House as soon as possible. The poison in your body needs to be treated."

“…It’s all my fault.”

Shinobu Kocho's face was full of guilt and regret. If she were stronger, she wouldn't need her sister to risk her current seriously injured body to protect her.

She quickly helped Jiang Lianqiu back to the carriage. Seeing that the horse pulling the carriage had been killed by Douma, she had no choice but to try to put the reins on herself.

Fortunately, at this time, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the distance.

Shinobu Kocho drew her sword cautiously at first, but when she saw that the person coming was a fellow member of the Demon Slayer Corps, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

……Dividing line……

With the help of teammates who came to support her, Shinobu Kocho also got into the carriage this time.

She sat on the mat with her legs hugged, her lips tightly pursed, and she had been staring at Jiang Lianqiu since she came in.

"...Just ask whatever you want to ask." Jiang Lianqiu, who couldn't bear to watch any longer, spoke up.

Kocho Shinobu frowned and finally spoke: "Are you... a human or a demon? Is my sister... okay?"

"She's unconscious." Jiang Lianqiu answered lazily, with a hint of fatigue in his tone, "I'm not sure when she will wake up."

"As for me not being an evil spirit, you can rest assured. If I really had any intention of harming you two sisters, I wouldn't have done these things."

Shinobu Kocho nodded.

She is just straightforward and easily angered, not stupid.

Just seeing her extremely familiar sister talking to her in a completely unfamiliar attitude and tone made Shinobu Kocho feel awkward.

After thinking for a moment, she suddenly suggested, "Well, do you have to possess your sister? If possible, can I take her place?"

Jiang Lianqiu was stunned. He didn't expect that Shinobu Kocho would have such an idea.

"Sorry, I'm not doubting you, but seeing you act like a sister..."

Seeing Jiang Lianqiu looking at her, Shinobu Kocho hurriedly waved her hands to explain.

"Unfortunately, that's impossible." Jiang Lianqiu shook his head and replied, "In fact, the current situation of your sister and I is also unexpected."

Can't do it?

Shinobu Kocho was a little suspicious, but didn't say anything else.

"I heard my sister call you Qiu Jun, so I'll call you that too."

After a pause, Shinobu Kocho continued, "If my sister doesn't wake up before we return to the Butterfly House, then Qiu Jun, would you like to make some preparations? Like, learn about the situation in advance?"

"Why?" Jiang Lianqiu raised his eyebrows. "It's impossible for me to stay with your sister forever. I can just leave when the time comes."

"Eh? Can you still walk!?"

Kocho Shinobu's eyes widened.

"What do you think I am?"

"That kind of vengeful spirit that must possess humans—huh!?"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Shinobu Kocho quickly covered her mouth and glared at Jiang Lianqiu.

Although she didn't know how the other party did it, she couldn't help but speak the truth just now.

After all, she is just a 14-year-old girl.

Jiang Lianqiu laughed silently, and then told Shinobu Kocho about his origins bit by bit.

……Dividing line……

A high-society ball somewhere in Tokyo.

Muzan Kibutsuji, who was dressed neatly in a sophisticated suit, was talking to the humans around him who had no idea of ​​his identity.

At a certain moment, he suddenly looked out the window, left the people around him without saying a word, walked out of the dance venue, and stood on the balcony on the third floor.

Because of the time difference, it was already night here, and what Muzan Kibutsuji was looking at was the valley where Douma was killed.

(Douma, dead?)

"Sir, you..."

A waiter came to him and just as he started to speak, he felt a sharp pain in his neck.

His pupils quickly dilated and he fell limply to the ground.

A few minutes later, when someone else came to the deserted balcony, they only saw the body of a waiter lying in a pool of blood.

“Aa ...

The screams of terror pierced the lively atmosphere of the dance party.

Chapter 356: How come it seems like I’m sleeping with my sister?

In front of the gate of the Butterfly House hidden in the mountains and forests.

When they saw the carriage covered with starlight appear in their sight, the girls who had been waiting at the door finally felt relieved.

Kanzaki Aoi stood at the front, and behind her, Terauchi Kiyoshi, Nakahara Sumi and Takada Naho, the three little ones from the Butterfly House, hugged each other happily.

"I'm back, I'm back!"

"Great! Everyone's okay!"

Kanao Kurika, a girl who also lived in the Butterfly House and was younger than Shinobu Hucho, did not jump and dance like the three little ones. She just stood there quietly, but her tense body relaxed, and the corners of her mouth, which had been pursed into a straight line, finally showed an upward arc.

As the carriage stopped in front of the Butterfly House, Hu Dienen was the first to jump out. She then turned around and reached out to help Jiang Lianqiu get out of the carriage.

"""scare!"""

Only then did the three little ones see "Butterfly Kanae" covered in wounds and bandages.

Kanae's body, which had just relaxed, became tense again, and the three little ones surrounded her. Because they had received news before that Butterfly Kanae was seriously injured, they had already prepared a stretcher nearby.

After being forced to lie down by Butterfly Shinobu, Jiang Lianqiu let the three little ones carry him and fly quickly into the Butterfly House.

Next, of course, is a more detailed physical examination.

The clothes on their bodies were completely stripped off, and the bandages wrapped around them by Shinobu Kocho scared Aoi Kanzaki and the three little ones.

"So...so scary!"

"Is Ms. Kanae's injury so serious?"

"I just saw someone who could move..."

In the same room, but not getting close, Kanao, who was just watching from a distance, had beads of sweat oozing out of her forehead without her knowing when.

Suddenly, a hand gently patted her head.

She turned her head and saw that it was Shinobu Kocho who was comforting her.

Kanao was a little dazed for a moment.

In the past, it was always her elder sister Kanae who did this, but at this moment, Kanao felt that Shinobu Kocho exuded a temperament similar to that of Kanae Kocho.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen." said Shinobu Kocho.

Her voice was gentle and her eyes were smiling.

——But the sensitive Kanao felt that Shinobu Kocho had actually been suppressing her anger.

After staring at Shinobu Kocho in silence for a while, Kanae nodded and looked at the four people who were surrounding the bed and taking care of Kanae Kocho.

The three little ones also carefully untied the bandages completely at this time.

(Ah, I'm still a little shy anyway.)

Jiang Lianqiu suddenly heard the voice of Kanae Kocho in his mind.

Are you awake?

(I'm awake now. I made Qiu-kun worried.)

If you wake up, say hello to Shinobu.

Jiang Lianqiu gradually relaxed his control over his body, and Butterfly Kanae was like a person who had just woken up from a dream, gradually regaining control of her body.

Similarly, the pain that had always been suppressed by Jiang Lianqiu was finally felt by her.

"ah……!"

A low moan escaped uncontrollably, frightening Kanzaki Aoi, who was treating her injuries with the three little ones, so much that she almost dropped the gauze in her hand.

"Ms. Kanae!?"

"It's okay." Kanae Kocho forced a smile and turned to look at Shinobu Kocho who rushed over after she screamed in pain.

"Shinobu, sister is fine."

"...Sister?" Shinobu Kocho was stunned for a moment, then a look of joy appeared on her face. "Sister, you're awake!?"

"Yeah~"

"Isn't Miss Kanae awake all the time?" Kanzaki Aoi asked curiously.

"Cough cough!" Shinobu Kocho coughed quickly and wanted to ask something else, but this was obviously not the right time.

She could only stand aside with Chanao and wait patiently.

Lying on the bed, in order to prevent herself from crying out in pain again and causing worry, Kanae Kocho tried to distract herself and communicate with Jiang Lianqiu.

(Has Qiu Jun been enduring such a painful injury all this time?)

Actually, I can't feel any pain. I have cut off my sense of pain.

(How cunning... Can't you let me do the same?)

No, you also know pharmacology, so you should know that pain is actually a very important sense for the body.

In fact, after I restored your sense of pain, I also felt pain here...hiss!

Only then did Kanae Kocho remember that according to Jiang Lianqiu, the two of them should now have a connection between their five senses.

but--

(Why can’t I feel Qiu Jun?)

Jiang Lianqiu thought for a moment and recalled the scene when he first met Butterfly Kanae.

At that time, Kanae Kocho could already be considered dead, and even her soul had escaped from her body.

It is for this reason that when Jiang Lianqiu's spiritual power appeared next to Butterfly Kanae, Miss Huazhu's soul, which was about to dissipate, was attracted to him, and finally the two of them accidentally entered a state of sharing the five senses.

...Maybe it's because when I found you, you were so close to death that your soul was out of your body.

So now, your consciousness should not have completely merged back into your body.

(No wonder, I always find it very difficult to control my body, not because of the injury, but for some other reason.)

Kanae Kocho felt a little sad for a moment.

He had been to the gates of hell, and when he was about to fall into the abyss, Jiang Lianqiu pulled him back.

At this moment, Jiang Lianqiu suddenly realized that Yue Chengliu, who was sleeping with her head resting on his thigh, showed signs of waking up.

It should be safe here now. I'll go first.

(Eh? Qiu-kun wants to—ah!)

Aoi Kanzaki, who was treating the injuries of Kanae Kocho, suddenly found that Kanae, who had been looking at them from time to time, suddenly stopped moving.
