Chapter 100

"What? Madam Ruhu?" Shinichi murmured in disbelief. He had visited the Rengoku family and was deeply impressed by Madam Ruhu, who was both gentle and upright. The warm atmosphere of the Rengoku family also made Shinichi feel very comfortable.

But Shinichi never thought that Madam Ruhu, who was in good health a year ago, would...

Without any hesitation, Lord Yaoya stood up and went to the Rengoku family house with the support of Tianyin.

However, Tianyin persuaded the lord and explained softly that this was also the request of the Flame Pillar. He did not want to affect the Demon Slayer Corps because of family affairs, and promised to return to the team soon. He hoped that the lord would not mind.

It seemed a very upright decision, but Shinichi felt that Rengoku Makijuro's heart would never be as calm as Tianyin said. Makijuro's love for his wife was incomparably deep.

After bidding farewell to the lord and leaving the lord's mansion, Shinichi looked up at the somewhat foggy sky, sighed with regret, and then walked forward with the Sun Wheel Sword at his waist tightly grasped.

"I hope that the death of Mrs. Ruka will not change the warm Rengoku family." Shinichi said softly, thinking of the optimistic Rengoku Kyojuro and the somewhat shy Rengoku Chijuro who often huddled behind Kyojuro.

In the following time, although the Flame Pillar Rengoku Makijuro expressed that he did not want to delay the Demon Slayer Corps because of family affairs, several pillars and the lord visited and condoled in their personal names.

Shinichi could clearly feel that the tall and optimistic Rengoku Makijuro seemed to have changed. The optimistic and upright expression on his face that once gave people a sense of trust was gone, replaced by a touch of indelible sorrow and vague decadence between his eyebrows.

But it was unrealistic for Shinichi to say anything to comfort people. He didn't have the eloquence of the lord. He could only hope that Mr. Rengoku could be strong.

Shinichi also took the time to talk to Kyojuro. However, compared with his father Makijuro, although Kyojuro was also sad, he always remembered his mother's teachings before his death, so he was still very positive that he would not fall because of this.

When saying goodbye to the Rengoku family, Shinichi looked back. The Rengoku family can almost be said to be a long-standing demon-slaying family like the lord's Ubuyashiki family. The inheritance of the Flame Pillar has never been cut off for thousands of years.

"I hope the inheritance of the Flame Pillar will never die!" This is also Shinichi's best wish for the Rengoku family.

After a while, in the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.

The Water Pillar has not returned to the team yet. Although the Flame Pillar has returned to the team, Makijuro's condition makes everyone very worried. Although he said that he was fine, his red eyes and the smell of alcohol all over his body did not look like he was fine.

The Rock Pillar and the Sound Pillar also went to the area to perform the mission, so only the Mori Pillar Shinichi and the Flower Pillar Kanae of the Butterfly House were left in the headquarters.

"A child disappeared in Kameoka County, Tokyo? There was no news from the several teams of demon slayers sent to investigate. Although one team came back, they found nothing in the temple where the child disappeared. Sanemi, this is the mission we are going to cooperate on this time!" A sunny-looking demon slayer said with some surprise, with two small scars on the corners of his mouth. It was the Class A swordsman, Makino Makino.

The team members following Makino were more eye-catching. They had a strong and powerful body at first glance. The white coat on the demon slayer uniform was different from that of ordinary people. There was a big "kill" word printed on the back.

Under the messy white short hair, there was a pair of wide eyes, the white part of the eyes was covered with bloodshot, and the pupils were smaller than those of ordinary people. What was even more terrifying was that there were crisscrossing scars on the team members' faces, foreheads, exposed chests, and arms.

At first glance, it can bring a great sense of oppression. This member who looks scarier than the devil is the junior brother Fushigawa Shima, who Kuang Jin always talks about. He is also a Class A swordsman.

In the Demon Slayer Corps, basically everyone knows that the Class A swordsman Shima hates the devil. After all, this ruthless man was able to kill several devils with pure melee and his own blood before joining the Demon Slayer Corps. The scars on his body are also wounds he took the initiative to cut in order to hunt devils.

Shima's blood is extremely rare, and even among the rare blood, it is a rare top-grade. Ordinary devils will be drunk even if they just smell it.

Shinichi has some knowledge of Shima's rare blood, but due to the majesty of Mori Pillar, he is embarrassed to ask Shima openly.

However, due to Shima's desperate battle with the devil, the Butterfly House has become Shima's second home. Basically, as long as he returns to the headquarters, Shima spends half of his time in the Butterfly House to recover from his injuries.

Therefore, it can be said that Hanabe Kanae often meets Shimizu. After so many times, even the gentle Kanae will smile.Slightly angrily, he told Shimi to take good care of himself and not to fight so frantically. Of course, Shimi never took it to heart. Sometimes when he got anxious, he would say to Kanae: "You are such a nagging woman! Just bandage me up!"

Kanae was not angry yet, but the little ninja on the side was furious. If it weren't for Shinichi stopping her, the fierce little ninja would have immediately drawn out the knife and made a few more holes in Shimi.

Before this time, Kuang Jin would always appear at the right time and apologize for Shimi. Rather than saying that Kuang Jin and Shimi are like brothers, it is better to say that they are really like brothers, but Kuang Jin is always the one who wipes the ass.

On the way, Shimi crossed his arms, glanced at Kuang Jin with bloodshot eyes, and said with some disdain: "They can't investigate because they are too weak. I am enough for this kind of mission."

Kuang Jin patted Shimi's shoulder, "You can't say that. Everyone who joined the Demon Slayer Corps worked very hard. In addition, we two A-class swordsmen were dispatched for this mission. I am afraid the mission will not be easy. If we fail, the next one may be a pillar-level swordsman."

"Pillar?" Shimi was stunned. When he mentioned the pillar, the image of Kocho Kanae appeared in his mind subconsciously. He quickly shook his head to get rid of the random thoughts.

Kuang Jin on the other side smiled and said, "However, after completing this mission, we may be one step closer to the position of the pillar. Shimi, don't forget our agreement. Whoever becomes the pillar first will treat us to a meal. Well, let's eat beef rice. Fresh and smooth eggs with fragrant beef, slurp~"

Shimi's forehead was bulging with two blue veins, "Hey! Hey! Who promised you this boring agreement? You greedy ghost, just go and eat if you want!"

Kuang Jin hugged Shimi's shoulders and said with a smile, "That's different. Becoming the wind pillar is also the master's wish. This kind of beef rice is more memorable, right?"

Shimi: "You win!"

Just as the two were talking and laughing, a voice full of interest suddenly sounded behind them, "Are you going to Tokyo too?"

The two turned around immediately after hearing this, and Kuang Jin shouted in surprise: "Mori Pillar-sama?"

Buzugawa Shimi said with his eyes wide open: "It's you?"
