Chapter 131

The news of the return of the Mori Pillar quickly spread throughout the Demon Slayer Corps. This sudden good news greatly encouraged many members of the Demon Slayer Corps. Even the logistical members of the Hidden Corps added two more pieces of meat to the lunch dishes because they were happy.

Goto patted Enji's head with both emotion and relief, "I knew that your master was stubborn. Really, now I have to worry about how to explain to Shinichi what you are like now." Goto looked at the "car" of Shiba Inu in front of him with a headache.

Enji: "Woof woof! (Eat!)"

The two pillars who stayed at the headquarters, Flower Pillar Butterfly Kanae and Wind Pillar Fushigawa Shima, also learned about Shinichi's return quickly. Shima looked a little surprised and admired, and said in a hoarse voice: "It's really amazing to be able to fight against the upper-rank demons and escape unscathed."

Kanae clasped her hands together excitedly and said happily: "That's great, Shinichi is fine, God bless you, and Shinobu finally doesn't have to be so depressed all the time."

Hearing Kanae mention Shinobu Butterfly, a small black head suddenly poked out from behind Kanae cautiously, with big smoky purple eyes shining.

"Ah~ It's Kanae, that's great, Shinichi is back." Kanae happily picked up the little girl behind her and spun around. This child was the child she and Shinobu rescued from a human trafficker.

At that time, Shinobu Kocho was emotionally unstable because of Shinichi's sacrifice, and the greedy human trafficker ran into the Butterfly sisters.

That guy, although he got a lot of money, he probably can't walk at this moment, right?

The little girl rescued by Kanae Kocho and Shinobu Kocho became their apprentice, and Kanae named her Kanae Kurikaru Kanae.

However, Kanae may have been too deeply stimulated when she was a child, which led to her a little autism in her personality. She hardly speaks at ordinary times, just like a cute puppet. It was only after getting along with Kanae for a while that she improved a little.

Kanae was held by Kanae and turned around without saying anything, and she was still very obedient and pursed her lips.

On the other side of the headquarters, in the Ubuyashiki mansion.

The beautiful Amane gently helped the Demon Slayer Corps lord Ubuyashiki Yoya who was sitting on the tatami.

The purple curse scar has spread to the other eye of Ubuyashiki Yoshiya. In less than half a year, Yoshiya's right eye vision has declined rapidly, and now he can only see some light and shadow very vaguely.

Seeing her husband like this, Tianyin was very sad. In order to comfort Yaoya, who was thinking hard about the future of the Demon Slayer Corps every day, Tianyin quickly told him the news she had learned.

"Really? Shinichi, he is fine, it's really great! Tianyin, this news is really good news!" Sure enough, when he learned that Shinichi had returned safely, Yaoya's face showed a smile of relief and excitement.

"This is a sign. For hundreds of years, almost no pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps has been able to kill any upper strings, but now, Shinichi can fight with the second upper string and return safely, which proves that our efforts have not been in vain. Muzan and those upper strings are not invincible. One day, the evil ghosts will be killed by our Demon Slayer Corps! Cough cough cough!"

Because he was too excited, Yaoya coughed directly, and Tianyin quickly brought him a glass of water.

After drinking a cup of tea, Yaoya finally calmed down a little. It was also at this time that Tianyin told Yaoya another thing.

"We have found the location of that family, but now there are only two helpless children left in that family. Their parents unfortunately passed away not long ago. Yaoya, what should we do..."

After knowing the situation of the brothers, Lord Yaoya was silent for a long time, and finally said in a self-blaming tone: "It is our negligence of the Demon Slayer Corps that the descendants of the first generation of breathing swordsmen have such a tight life. Tianyin, I want to invite those two children to join the Demon Slayer Corps."

Tianyin nodded and said seriously: "I know, I will go there in person, on behalf of you and the Demon Slayer Corps."

Yaoya smiled and stretched out his hand and held Tianyin's hand. He was very grateful in his heart, grateful for his wife's understanding of him. In fact, if possible, Yaoya would rather invite the brothers in person, but the speed of his physical deterioration exceeded his imagination.

At the same time, the pillars who were on missions outside also learned about the return of the Mori Pillar one after another.

Rock Pillar: Gyoumei Hiramura, Sound Pillar: Tengen Uzui, Water Pillar: Giyu Tomioka, Deep Hole Pillar: Sento, and Flame Pillar: Rengoku Makijuro.

However, Rengoku Makijuro, who was in Tokyo at the time, was not in a good condition. His eyes were red and he smelled of alcohol.He saw the evil ghost, and now he didn't want to say a word, just killed it with a knife. His attitude became more and more irritable, and he even humiliated his own child Rengoku Kyojuro not long ago.

However, except for Rengoku Makijuro himself, perhaps no one knows why he has become like this. Maybe everyone thinks that it is the blow brought by the death of Makijuro's wife Rengoku Ruka, but this can only be regarded as part of it. More is Makijuro's own despair, the despair of knowing what happened hundreds of years ago.

The sight turned to the Moriki mansion a hundred kilometers away.

Since Rukawa Chinana left again, this mansion where only Mr. Moriki was left fell into the quietness of an ancient tomb.

On the grass steps in the backyard, an old figure sat quietly like a sculpture, the breeze gently blew the old man's white hair, and the already very turbid eyes reflected the stars.

I don't know how long the old man sat here, a crow flapping its wings hurriedly flew in front of the old man.

This crow was very thin, and its feathers had lost their original glossy luster, but its spirit was very excited. The old man recognized it at a glance as the crow of Shinichi's child - Yingsan.

Why did Yingsan appear here? The old man's turbid eyes moved, and sure enough, the next second, the crow Yingsan shouted very excitedly: "Shinichi is back safely! Shinichi is back safely!!......"

The crow's excited voice was repeated many times, and it kept echoing in the silent mansion. Whoosh! A gust of wind suddenly blew, and the willow trees planted in the yard began to dance in the wind, making a pleasant rustling sound.

The old man also smiled. He felt the pulsation of the vitality around him, and said slowly in an old but powerful voice: "I knew that this child was better than us."

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

After an absence of more than half a year, Shinichi once again stepped into the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters. Looking at the familiar scene, familiar uniforms, and familiar faces, Shinichi's heart gradually began to stir, "Moriya Shinichi, the Forest Pillar, has officially returned to the team!"
