Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Column Extinguishing Blade
next morning
"Da da da……"
Accompanied by a rush of footsteps, two figures walked side by side and quickly left the Demon Slayer Headquarters.
One of them is "Fire Pillar" Purgatory Anjuro wearing a red and white haori, and the other is Suzuki Seimei carrying a wooden box.
That’s right!
Suzuki Seimei went out on a mission with "Flame Pillar" this time, and even brought Nezuko with him.
Since Tanjiro has been busy training recently and has no time to take care of Nezuko, he left Nezuko to be taken care of by Suzuki Seimei.
The reason why Suzuki Seimei chose to do the mission with "Flame Pillar" was because he learned from the Butterfly Ninja that Purgatory Anjuro was going to Mugen Train to do the mission this time.
Not long ago, more than 40 people disappeared on the Mugen Train, and several of the Demon Slayer Swordsmen who were sent to investigate had also lost contact. Therefore, the Demon Slayer Corps specially sent Infernal Anjuro, the "Fire Pillar", to investigate.
.
According to the original plot, those who disappeared on the Mugen Train should have been eaten by the demon dream.
In fact, with the strength of Purgatory Anjuro, it is not difficult to kill Demon Dream.
However, in the original plot, Purgatory Anjuro just killed the demon, but he was unlucky enough to encounter the third one on the string, Yiwozao, and finally died of exhaustion after fighting.
It was precisely with the death of "Flame Pillar" that "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba" gradually gained another nickname, that is "Hillar Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba."
After getting along with each other for this period of time, the relationship between Suzuki Seimei and Purgatory Anjuro has become more familiar. Naturally, he will not watch helplessly as Infernal Anjuro is killed.
What's more, during this mission, he will also encounter Demon Dream and Yiwoza, so Suzuki Seimei specially used the excuse of traveling to go out with Infernal Anjuro to do the mission.
Having seen with his own eyes the scene where Suzuki Seimei instantly killed the "Musical Pillar", Purgatory Anjuro naturally would not treat him as an ordinary child, and welcomed him as a strong supporter who came to his door.
Because Purgatory Anjuro has already mastered the full concentration of "June" and can maintain the state of "Breath of Fire" all day long, his speed is not much slower than Suzuki Haruaki.
Under the leadership of Purgatory Anjuro, the two of them arrived near the Mugen Train station in less than half a day.
While Anjuro Purgatory went to find the intelligence officers of the Demon Slayer Corps to learn the latest news about the disappearance of Mugen Train, Suzuki Seimei took Nezuko and stayed temporarily at a hotel near the station.
Since the cannibals didn't dare to appear during the day anyway, Suzuki Seimei was too lazy to look for traces of those cannibals. He might as well play games with Nezuko.
Pleasant time always passes quickly. Just as Suzuki Seimei and Nezuko were playing games happily, the sky also darkened unknowingly.
"Woooooooo..."
As a low charge sounded, Nezuko's delicate body trembled, and she almost bit the bamboo tube in her mouth to pieces. Her pretty face turned red and she collapsed like soft mud.
"Dongdongdong..."
A rapid knock on the door suddenly sounded, and two intelligence officers wearing Demon Slayer uniforms with the word "hidden" painted on their backs said in an extremely respectful tone: "Sir Seimei, Lord Purgatory has already taken the lead to rush to Mugen Station. Let's go."
We are here to inform you."
"Nezuko, it's time for us to take action!"
After Suzuki Seimei finished speaking, his tall and strong body quickly shrunk, and the Variety of Children's Clothes also turned into a ball of liquid and covered his body again, turning into a black samurai uniform in the blink of an eye.
"Uh-huh"
Nezuko, whose eyes were a little blurry, heard this and nodded obediently. Her slender body quickly shrunk, and she climbed into the wooden box using both hands and feet.
Suzuki Seimei picked up the wooden box containing Nezuko, opened the door slowly, and said expressionlessly: "Lead the way!"
"yes!"
Hearing Suzuki Seimei's words, the two intelligence officers nodded quickly and led him towards Mugen Station.
Although Suzuki Seimei is only a child, the people responsible for collecting intelligence have already known about his feat of killing the "sound pillar" in an instant, so naturally they dare not show any disrespect to him.
The other side is inside Mugen Station, in front of a hotel that is still open.
A girl wearing round black-rimmed glasses was looking at the red bean paste bun in her hand distressedly, and sighed: "It seems there are no customers today?"
Since more than 40 passengers disappeared on the Mugen train, the Mugen train has been temporarily suspended. As a result, the passenger flow at Mugen station has been greatly reduced, and the restaurants in the station have naturally lost business.
"Xiaofu, stop sighing and eat the red bean paste bread!"
The white-haired old woman wearing the same black-rimmed glasses saw this and comforted her in a kind tone: "Business is so busy on weekdays, but occasionally when business is not good, just treat it as a holiday."
"Grandma, sometimes I really envy you, you are always so optimistic.uu看书www.uukanshu.com???
"Because grandma, I have experienced a lot in my life. This little difficulty is nothing at all. When you grow up, you will understand."
The old woman smiled kindly at first, and then reminded her seriously: "By the way! Xiaofu, I have told you many times that it is very dangerous after dark. You should come over at noon to help.
Ghosts will come out at night."
"Grandma, I'm not a child anymore, you're telling ghost stories to scare me again."
Xiaofu rolled his eyes at his grandma angrily, and said with a sad face: "It's all the fault of the Ripper. If it weren't for his appearance that scared the customers away from coming, the business in our store wouldn't be so bad.
.”
"Good evening! The moonlight is really beautiful today!"
A cheerful voice suddenly sounded, startling Xiaofu who was talking to his grandma.
Xiaofu turned around subconsciously and saw a man who looked somewhat similar to an owl. He didn't know when he appeared behind him.
Before Xiaofu could react, Purgatory Xingjulang asked straight to the point: "I'm looking for a ghost. Have you ever seen a ghost?"
???
Does this person have any serious illness?
After hearing the words of Infernal Anjuro, the corners of Xiaofu's eyes twitched. Coupled with his strange dress, he couldn't help but wonder whether this person was a mental patient.
"you……"
The old woman who was behind the window was stunned when she saw the strange hair color and eyebrows of Infernal Anzuro, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Suzuki Seimei, who had just arrived at Mugen Station, heard what Purgatory Anjuro said and couldn't help complaining: "Brother Anjuro, if this young lady really encounters a ghost, I'm afraid we won't be able to see her, right?"
