Chapter 35

"Grandpa!" The little girl with tears on her face threw herself into her grandfather's arms, but facing the resurrected granddaughter, the old man holding several exquisite silver mirrors showed an unnatural expression.

There were quite a few villagers with the same strange expressions as the little girl's grandfather. The evil ghost silver mirror had been reduced to ashes, but many villagers did not smile at Shinichi who killed the evil ghost, and some even showed a hint of hostility towards Shinichi.

Shinichi, who saw everything, didn't care what these greedy villagers thought, but not everyone was so depraved. Komiya Ijie with tears in his eyes held Shinichi's hands and thanked him sincerely: "Mr. Shinichi! I am really very very grateful to you! After killing this monster, Yingshu's soul can rest in peace."

Facing the excited Komiya Ijie, Shinichi was a little unnatural. After all, he had suspected that he had colluded with the evil ghost before. Not to mention the villagers of Teranishi Village, two figures also walked in front of Shinichi at this time.

Two young demon slayers who looked about the same age as Shinichi were ashamed and thanked Shinichi for saving their lives. They had just joined the Demon Slayer Corps and were Ren-class swordsmen. They didn't expect to fall into a big trap on their third mission and almost lost their lives. Now they even lost their Nichirin Sword.

"Mr. Shinichi, are you also a demon slayer? Why aren't you wearing a team uniform?" A demon slayer named Taiji couldn't help but point at the Nichirin Sword on Shinichi's waist and asked.

After getting Shinichi's negative answer, Taiji showed a regretful expression, and then persuaded: "It's a pity for an excellent swordsman like Mr. Shinichi not to join the Demon Slayer Corps. Our Demon Slayer Corps really needs outstanding swordsmen like you. You can..."

Shinichi interrupted him, "Hehe, can someone like me join the Demon Slayer Corps? Forget it, I still won't cause trouble for your team."

"But..."

"Okay, that's it. By the way, do you have any way to contact the Demon Slayer Corps? I remember the old man said that your Demon Slayer Corps has a special department to deal with aftermath incidents, right?" Shinichi asked.

Taiji and another Demon Slayer team member looked at each other. Although they couldn't contact the Crow now, the Demon Slayer team members would naturally have backup means of contact. In fact, there are Wisteria Emblem Families all over the country. Relying on this, they can easily contact the headquarters.

"Yes, we will contact the headquarters at dawn, and the members of the Hidden Department should also come to help with the aftermath. That is, this time is really too embarrassing." Taiji said ashamed.

Shinichi nodded, "Then I'll leave this place to you." He paused before turning to leave, and after a moment of silence, he reminded: "Some people in this village are greedy. I don't know if the Demon Slayer Corps will deal with these morally corrupt humans, but I still have to mention that some humans don't deserve sympathy!"

After saying that, Shinichi strode towards the village entrance with Enji, leaving Taiji alone in a daze.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the dawn of dawn slightly appeared on the horizon, and the orange-yellow sunlight opened the prelude to dispersing the night.

On the path, Shinichi squinted his eyes and looked at the gradually rising sun. His mind was a little floating for a while, but at this moment, a vague call came from behind him.

"Mr. Shinichi! Mr. Shinichi! Mr. Shinichi, please wait a moment!"

Shinichi turned his head and found that it was Komiya Ike who was waving his hand and running towards him. Shinichi raised his eyebrows. What did this person call him for? Soon, panting Komiya Inosuke ran to Shinichi, and after a long while he spoke.

"Shin, Mr. Shinichi, this, this silver mirror is passed down from generation to generation in our family. You took it back from the evil ghost. Although it has some flaws, I barely repaired it. Please accept this silver mirror as a gift!" As he said, Komiya Inosuke took out the exquisite silver mirror from his arms. It was the silver mirror that Yuan Er bit off from the face of the evil ghost Yin Jian.

At that time, there seemed to be a strange space in the silver mirror, and the little girl and the two demon slayers were trapped in it. Shinichi destroyed the blood demon space of Yin Jian and released a few people, and then threw it away. Unexpectedly, Komiya Inosuke actually picked it up and the original crack was also repaired.

"This is your family heirloom, I can't accept it. It's just a piece of cake. Killing evil ghosts is my duty!" Shinichi wanted to refuse, but Komiya Inosuke's attitude was very firm.

He insisted that Shinichi accept the silver mirror. He believed that Shinichi's killing of the evil ghost Yinjian was a matter of gratitude for both his deceased brother Yingshu and the entire Teranishi Village. If he did not express his gratitude, he would feel guilty., and said that if Shinichi didn't accept it, he would kneel down and kowtow.

There are many greedy and corrupt people among humans, but there are more good people with good intentions. This is also one of the beliefs of countless ghost hunters who fight bloody battles.

Shinichi had no choice but to accept the silver mirror. As a return gift, Shinichi gave him a bag of wisteria flower balls and a few "Shinichi special" Dorayaki, and told him to plant more wisteria flowers at home in the future, and it would be best to find a good time to move out of Teranishi Village, where human nature is complicated. Relying on the craftsmanship of the mirror maker, he has better development opportunities in the city.

After saying goodbye to Komiya Jingjie, Shinichi officially said goodbye to this trip to Teranishi Village. He didn't know where to go next. He took it one step at a time, after all, the road was under his feet.

At dawn, Komiya Ijie looked at Shinichi's back gradually disappearing at the end of the road, and said with emotion: "Mr. Shinichi is such a great man." He opened a bag of Dorayaki given by Shinichi, smelled the sweet smell, and said with a smile: "But in some ways, Mr. Shinichi is also a young boy, who likes this kind of sweet snack."

Komiya Ijie picked up a piece of Dorayaki, took a bite, and snap! There seemed to be a sound of stone solidification. The smile on Komiya Ijie's face solidified instantly, and the whole person was motionless like a stone statue. Soon, the muscles on his face twitched uncontrollably, and the whole person's expression was extremely distorted, "This! This! This taste! Ugh!!!"

On the road, Shinichi touched Yuaner's chubby head and muttered, "Such delicious Dorayaki, Komiya Ijie will be so happy to eat it, and I didn't bring much in total, it's really a bargain for him."

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

Time flies, and more than half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

In a farmland, a huge evil ghost gradually turned into ashes. From the vague shape, it can be seen that it is a cow-shaped evil ghost. In front of the evil ghost's body, Shinichi, who was covered in mud, had an extremely serious expression.

Because Shinichi found that something might have happened, he turned his eyes to Shinichi's hand and saw that the Sun Wheel Sword Mori no Ryu, which had been passed down from generation to generation in the Moriki family, had a clear crack on the green blade at this time, and under Shinichi's gaze, snap!

The knife broke...
