Playing house in the anime world

Inosuke Hashibira exchanged his rice with Aiko Gojo for two bento boxes, one was eel rice and the other was a deluxe meat-based omelette rice.

Aiko Gojo discovered that the food in Butterfly House was indeed better than that in ordinary cafeterias, with more meat and two more eggs.

The taste is not much different from that of ordinary cafeterias, but the taste of Butterfly House is more homely, and it feels like it is cooked by one person alone, while the food in the cafeteria has a bit of the taste of a big pot.

"Who are you..." Aoi Kanzaki from Butterfly House looked confused. Why would anyone come to Butterfly House to exchange lunch with others?

"They are breathing monsters!" Inosuke Hashibira answered without even raising his head.

Inosuke Hashibira still stubbornly believed that Gojo Aiko was a breathing monster, and he regarded her as a strong opponent. He thought that she was a mountain king like himself, and that she had many younger brothers under her.

Her younger brothers would also make a lot of delicious food for her. Inosuke Hashibira looked at his younger brother No. 1 Tanjiro Kamado and his younger brother No. 2 Zenitsu Agatsuma, and felt like he had lost.

"Breathing method...monster?" Kanzaki Aoi suspected that Hashibira Inosuke was tricked, but it was also possible that he insisted on thinking that others were monsters.

"Yes, yes, I'm Miss Monster, the kind that gives candies to those who are destined to be with me." Gojo Aiko took out a bag of candies from her pocket and successfully attracted the attention of Hashibira Inosuke.

However... Gojo Aiko looked at the face of the boy Inosuke Huidaira who took off the hood. Wasn't the contrast too big? Under the wild boar hood was actually a beautiful face.

Then he spoke like a savage...the contrast was even greater!

But she understood this situation, that kind of "wolf boy" situation, where he was raised by wild beasts since childhood.

"Are you recovering here?"

After dinner, several people sat in the yard of the Butterfly House and chatted.

Tanjiro Kamado patted his chest to indicate that their injuries had healed and they would be able to accept the mission and leave soon.

They had basically been in the Butterfly House ever since the Infinity Train mission two months ago.

Two months have passed and I have gradually recovered. Although I still feel heavy, it is time to continue training hard and killing ghosts.

"You should be swordsmen too, right? If you're not here to heal your wounds, then what are you here for?" Tanjiro Kamado felt that Gojo Aiko and the others were still a little suspicious, but at least he was sure that they were not bad people, at most they had bad intentions...

"We...are the foreign aids who came to help?" Gojo Aiko counted on her fingers, "We are here to help gather intelligence, help study the ghosts, help kill the ghosts, and help heal the lord's body..."

"Hey, hey, hey? Can you cure our lord's illness?!" Agatsuma Zenitsu had been eavesdropping quietly nearby. His candy was snatched away by Hashibira Inosuke, and now he can only stay away.

"It can be cured!" Gojo Aiko said with a smile in the expectant eyes of several people, "As long as the demon king Muzan is chopped off, it can be cured~"

"Uh... we also know this..." Tanjiro Kamado felt that this made sense, but unfortunately time waits for no one, and they didn't know when they would be able to kill the Demon King Muzan.

"Where is the Demon King Muzan?!" Inosuke Hashibira jumped up, but was then pulled back by Gojo Aiko.

"It's up to you to find it yourselves." Aiko Gojo pinched Inosuke Chihira's arm curiously. Sure enough, it was full of strong muscles, even though he didn't look very old.

"You don't know where he is either?" Tanjiro Kamado thought Gojo Aiko knew, or she had a way to find out.

"We just arrived, let's start investigating later~" Gojo Aiko has seen the portrait of the Demon King Muzan. It is said that a member of the Demon Slayer Corps happened to encounter Muzan on the street, so he met him and knew what he looked like.

Later, the Demon Slayer Corps found a painter to draw the general appearance of Demon King Muzan based on that man's description. At least he was 70% similar to the real demon. Gojo Aiko said that Demon King Muzan was not ugly after all.

She had always thought that Demon King Muzan might look rather ugly, but she didn't expect that he was actually a handsome guy.

However, after knowing that he was once from the same clan as the Ubuyashiki family, it can explain why he is such a handsome guy. After all, everyone in the Ubuyashiki family is very good-looking.

However, even though Ubuyashiki Kagami's half face is covered with scars due to the curse, his face still gives people a gentle and holy feeling. But it is different for Muzan. I don't know if the artist brought some personal emotions into his drawing, or if he just looks like an evil being that is not human.

In short, Demon King Muzan has a pair of blood-red eyes that look like a poisonous snake or a ferocious beast, and he seems to like hiding among ordinary people, creating his own persona, and even forming a family with others.

But the fact that he can only move at night is definitely a very important and obvious breakthrough.

Simply put, they look for handsome guys with blood-red eyes who are suspected of having skin diseases or some strange diseases that cause them to be able to move only at night, and they are likely to find some clues.

"How are you going to investigate?" Tanjiro Kamado was ready to learn, maybe he would be able to use the same method to investigate when the time comes.

Aiko Gojo: "Wherever there are many missing people, go there to find the handsome guy with red eyes."

Tanjiro Kamado: “Ah?”

Why does he seem to not understand?

"Or maybe there is just someone with red eyes. After all, red eyes are relatively rare and not everyone has them." Gojo Aiko touched her face. In fact, other methods could be used to lure the snake out of its hole.

For example, she could let Chiba Niyuu or Namikaze Minato, who possess magical powers, disguise themselves as perfect evil spirits who don't eat people and are not afraid of the sun. She doesn't believe that the Demon King Muzan would not be curious!

Therefore, their goal should be to collect as much information as possible about Demon King Muzan, and by the way, find a few of the Twelve Demon Moons to study.

"Can we really find him using this method?" Tanjiro Kamado seemed to understand what Gojo Aiko meant, but what if the Demon King Muzan stayed in his base camp and didn't come out, how could they find him then?

"It doesn't matter if we can't find him. We can also try to collect as much intelligence about him as possible, such as where he likes to move around, where he hunts, what he has done in which cities disguised as an ordinary person... Then, based on this intelligence, we can deduce his purpose and what he will do next."

Gojo Aiko learned the intelligence from the undercover master Furuya Rei. Tanjiro Kamado and the other two were stunned by what they heard.

"But how can we find out what he has done in the past?" Agatsuma Zenitsu shrank back. He was scared when he thought of the Demon King Muzan. He would definitely die if he faced such an enemy!

"The Demon Slayer Corps should have collected information on mysterious disappearances and murders that have occurred across the country, right? Especially those that occurred at night, because they are likely to be related to evil spirits."

Ubuyashiki Kōya has already asked people to organize the information. For this kind of case, the Demon Slayer Corps will usually send swordsmen to the scene to see if they can track down any traces of the demon. If they can, they will naturally track them down. If the time is too long or there are really no clues at the scene, then they can only give up.

After all, they cannot spend too much time and energy on a single case, especially since there are not many elite swordsmen in the Demon Slayer Corps. In addition, the mortality rate in the Demon Slayer Corps is very high, and once injured, it will take several months to recover, so the Demon Slayer Corps is very busy most of the time.

Due to the curse of short life, the Ubuyashiki family has always had very few members, and most of them are in poor health. In addition, they have to manage the Demon Slayer Corps and make money to support the Corps, so they cannot spare much energy to study more in-depth things.

The Demon Slayer Corps and the Ubuyashiki family had been almost completely wiped out by the Demon King Muzan several times before, so a lot of valuable information had not been passed down. Their intelligence on the Demon King Muzan had indeed always been seriously lacking.

"But those cases are already things of the past, right? The scene may no longer exist. What can we find out if we investigate now?" During Tanjiro Kamado's previous missions, he basically couldn't see much at the scene.

"The original crime scene may have been deserted, but it's impossible that all the people living nearby are gone. As long as someone knows the situation of the family where the incident occurred and knows that there was a person with red eyes in that family, then wouldn't that be information in hand?"

Aiko Gojo enthusiastically began to teach them some basic knowledge about criminal investigation, which she had learned from reading books and watching TV, and some of it was taught to her by Shinichi Kudo.

For example, if the person who knows the truth is unwilling to reveal it to them, what kind of words should be used to make the other party willingly tell the truth.

Also, when asking people around, which people are more likely to know the situation at the scene at that time, such as nearby restaurants or other shops with good business, because the person involved is likely to often go to these stores to consume, so the boss or clerk is very likely to know a lot of things.

Moreover, a lot of gossip is basically spread in these places with large and diverse traffic.

Of course, the best thing to do is to ask official agencies such as the local police station, as they should have detailed information about the case.

But of course detectives have to have their own way of collecting intelligence.

"Wow, so awesome!" Agatsuma Zenitsu was already dizzy from what he had heard, and Hashibira Inosuke just lay down on the spot and might have fallen asleep.

Tanjiro Kamado tried hard to remember and understand the knowledge that Gojo Aiko said, as it would be of great help if it could be used in the future.

"Then when will you start the investigation? We can also help pay attention to the investigation while we are on the mission!" Tanjiro Kamado suddenly felt full of energy and wanted to put it into practice now.

"We can start anytime!" Gojo Aiko patted Tanjiro Kamado's shoulder, "Come on, Brother Kamado!"

"Yeah! I'll try my best!"

After chatting, Aiko Gojo returned to the large yard prepared for them by Ubuyashiki Yoya.

Chiba Nizhiyu was practicing breathing techniques in the yard. He came back first after seeing Gojo Aiko having fun with the three little ones.

"I wonder how Kakyoin-san and the others are going with their investigation. I also want to go out and show my skills soon!" Gojo Aiko looked bored. The scenery of the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters was actually very nice, but she wanted to see what the demons looked like even more.

"Let's team up together then!" Chiba Niyuu was the one chosen this time to be Gojo Aiko's close adventure partner. Although it was not known whether the Eye of God could directly chop demons into charcoal, at least the lethality was definitely great enough.

"Okay, Brother Chiba, let's practice sword together!" Gojo Aiko picked up her Nichirin Sword. Maybe because the raw materials for forging it were special, this Nichirin Sword was of much higher quality than the swords they bought in modern times, and it felt more comfortable to use.

Although Chiba Erzhiyu also learned the Breathing of Fire, he always wanted to learn the Breathing of Thunder because he felt it was very suitable for his own thunder element.

However, Rengoku Kyojuro and Kocho Kana don't know much about Thunder Breathing. Although they roughly know what the sword technique of Thunder Breathing is like, they cannot restore it 100%.

Therefore, Chiba Erzhiyu's breathing method is a mixture of flame breathing and flower breathing, as well as his original swordsmanship and his own newly researched "thunder breathing".

Moreover, his Thunder Breathing really does carry thunder, and the destructive power is already great enough without using the breathing method.

As one of the strongest people in swordsmanship, Chiba Nizhiyu's swordsmanship is very superb. In a single swordsmanship competition, most people who compete with him can basically be defeated by him.

If he uses the breathing method or the God's Eye, everyone except Minato Namikaze will be defeated by him.

After all, thunder and lightning are too unfair. Being electrocuted will make the whole body feel numb!

It is very likely that it will be chopped into charcoal in an instant!

According to Chiba Erzhiyu himself, the enemies of Teyvat are not so easy to defeat, because if he fights with ordinary people who have no elemental power, he will try not to use elemental power, which is fair and just.

If you fight with an enemy who also possesses the Eye of God and can use elemental power, then you both have elemental power, and elemental power can be used not only for attack but also for defense, so it is not so easy to be knocked down by an electric shock.

The body of the owner of the Eye of God is also stronger than that of an ordinary person, so he can naturally withstand more attacks than an ordinary person.

When Chiba Niyuu was sparring with Gojo Aiko and the others, he always tried to restrain his strength, or temporarily put the Eye of God somewhere else, otherwise he might accidentally use the lightning element out of habit.

In fact, he was also very itchy and wanted to have a clash with the evil ghost as soon as possible. He needed to hold back when facing a normal person, but when facing a man-eating evil ghost, he didn't need to hold back, right?
