Control the Butterfly Effect from Demon Slayer: Blade
Chapter 37 The Ghost Town
The daytime in Dongma Town is lifeless, and the night in Dongma Town is even more desolate and restless.
Even if it was not nine o'clock in the evening, even if the street lights were still on, the shops in the town closed early, and every household closed their doors tightly, not daring to go out, as if they were afraid of something at night.
In this deathly silence, the door of Shintaro's house was knocked!
The moment the door rang, the father and son were both terrified, and Shintaro threw himself into the man's arms in panic.
They all know what awaits Shintaro.
The door was knocked for the second time, and Shintaro panicked, but he could only get out of the man's arms.
The decadent man looked at his son and touched his head encouragingly:
"Don't worry, it's alright!"
The boy held back his tears, walked out, and opened the door nervously.
Outside the door, there was a thin and yellow girl holding a lantern with a disturbed expression on her face.
Seeing that it was this little girl, Shintaro felt a little better:
"It's you, Xiaohua."
The little girl named Xiaohua nodded, looked at Shintaro with pity, and said:
"Lu...Master Lu asked me to come to you."
Shintaro trembled, and gritted his teeth:
"Those bastards, they told that about my father...to Mr. Lu?"
The little girl nodded timidly.
"Damn it!" Shintaro was terrified and angry: "My father just chatted casually with someone he doesn't know! Those bastards started a small report!"
"Not only your father, but also Grandpa Narita and Aunt Gao Mu. As long as they have contact with strangers, Mr. Lu knows."
"What!?" Shintaro was surprised and angry: "The children of Grandpa Narita and Aunt Takagi's family also..."
The little girl nodded, confirming Shintaro's bad guess.
"Damn it!" Shintaro yelled again, and this time the target of the yelling was Horigaku: "That outsider is really, what are you asking so many people for!? Don't know how many families have been involved!?"
Horigake on the roof was a little embarrassed.
This...can he be blamed?
It does seem to be his fault.
I'm really sorry, to express my apologies, I will help you get rid of that bullshit road master!
Shintaro was still angry after scolding Horigake, and continued to scold and beat the children who reported:
"And those bastards! Those who make small reports should be damned!"
"You...you don't want to be angry with them, if they don't tell the truth, they will..."
Speaking of this, the little girl's words stopped abruptly, and her body shivered involuntarily because of fear.
Shintaro also thought of something, and his face became pale.
The little girl couldn't help but urged Shintaro:
"Shintarou, we can't dawdle any longer, we must get to Master Lu in time."
Shintaro was terrified and reluctantly agreed:
"Go... let's go!"
The little girl walked in front with a lantern, and Shintaro followed behind. On the silent street, there were only two small steps, which seemed quite strange.
Shintaro's father, that decadent man, stood by the window, looking at his son's back, feeling worried for a while.
Sighing deeply, the man turned around, and suddenly found someone in front of him!
The extremely frightened man screamed, fell backwards, and sat on the ground.
When he saw clearly who the person in front of him was, he breathed a sigh of relief:
"It's...it's you!?"
Horie stood in front of the man, pointed to the room with a smile, and invited him peacefully:
"Uncle, can you explain in detail?"
Sitting stiffly on the ground, the man hesitated a little.
Horiyake revealed his identity and gave him a shot in the arm:
"To be honest, uncle, I am a swordsman of the Ghost Killing Squad, and I came here specifically to kill ghosts. That Mr. Lu you speak of is most likely a man-eating evil ghost, and my job is to hunt him down!
To put it bluntly, my strength is at the forefront of the ghost killing team. There are not many ghosts in the world that I can't deal with! "
The man was infected by Horigake's strong self-confidence and strong demeanor.
He struggled to stand up, and invited Horitake to the room over there, and the two sat opposite each other, and began to talk in detail.
"Uncle, the so-called knowing yourself and the enemy is invincible in a hundred battles. I need to know the specific situation of this ghost. Please tell me all the information you know."
As if he had grasped a life-saving straw, the man eagerly narrated everything he knew:
"The so-called Mr. Lu, whose full name is Death Thorn Road, has a green face and long fangs, doesn't look like a human being, and eats a few people to satisfy his hunger every now and then. He should be what you call a ghost!"
"Uncle, please calm down. I want to know how did the ghost of Death Thorn Road appear? Did it appear in Dongma Town out of thin air? Or did it come from outside?"
After thinking about it for a while, the man replied:
"It should be from outside. We have been in Dongma Town for so many years, and we have never heard of such a monster."
Horigake asked earnestly:
"When did it appear?"
"About half a year ago!"
"How has he been entrenched in Dongma Town for the past six months?"
Speaking of this question, the man became excited and began to recall the unbearable past:
"Originally, we in Dongma Town didn't know anything about a monster appearing in the town.
Later, young couples continued to die and disappear, and we became aware of the anomaly.
But by the time we feel it's wrong, it's too late..."
Speaking of this, the man recalled very painfully:
"Unknowingly, in less than a month, that monster used sorcery to control the life and death of all the children in the town!
We poor people, children are our life!
A child's life being controlled by a monster is equivalent to controlling our whole family!
That monster used this sorcery to control the entire Dongma Town by controlling the life and death of the children in the town.
We have no choice but to be controlled by him, so that, when he occasionally eats a couple, we can only bear it and pretend that we don't see it.
The whole town has been trapped in such terror, and I don't know who will be eaten next! ?
Those children who lost their parents were raised by that monster, forcing the poor children to play with him!
Occasionally, an outsider comes to the town, and it's okay to pass by in a hurry. Once an outsider comes into contact with people in the town, this outsider will definitely be eaten tonight!
It was because the monster was afraid of leaking the news, afraid that there would be monsters in this town.
Some passers-by or outsiders were eaten too much, and the government came to investigate. We had no choice but to declare that they were missing.
The government officials couldn't find any clues at all, so they let it go.
In fact... sometimes we also secretly laugh in our hearts.
That monster... eats too many outsiders, does it stop eating the people in the town?
But that's not the case, the couples in the town, he still eats them!
If this goes on... when will it end!There will be fewer and fewer people in the town, and everyone will become more and more afraid until it completely collapses.
Rather than that, it would be better to die...
But it’s okay to die, the lives of all the children in the town are in the hands of that monster, it doesn’t matter if we die, what about the children! ?
We can only suffer like this, slowly, in darkness, life is worse than death..."
The more a man talks, the more painful he is, and the more he talks, the more uncomfortable he feels.
Because of the painful memory, the man's narration was a bit chaotic and mixed, but Horiyake still sorted out the context from it, and roughly figured out what the ghost did and the ins and outs of the town's disaster.
Even if it was not nine o'clock in the evening, even if the street lights were still on, the shops in the town closed early, and every household closed their doors tightly, not daring to go out, as if they were afraid of something at night.
