[Blade of Ghost Slayer] as bright as the sun

, "It will be indefinitely, I don't want to see you in the Ghost Killing Squad!"

A black messenger bird fell from the sky and landed on the girl's shoulder.

"...Stop at another location, my shoulder is injured," the young man heard the ghost hunter's hoarse complaint, "Hurry up and take me back!"

another way

Butterfly Kanae raised her head.

The girl with black hair and red eyes expressionlessly bypassed the members of the Ghost Slayer Squad who were calling for help, and rushed towards the humanoid monster standing in the center of the battlefield.

The surrounding area was filled with the sound of biting wind, and numerous visible or invisible wind blades gathered, cutting densely packed cracks on the bright yellow coat.The ghost hunter who was attacked did not stop moving, she held the sun wheel knife, let the blood dye the clothes into a dazzling color, and then cut the blade towards the monster's neck without hesitation.

The wind blade that divided the battlefield into several pieces disappeared.

The monster's head rolled to the ground, gradually turning into ashes together with its body.

Ishiri Hyuga habitually flicked the Hinata sword, then put the sword back into the sheath.

Butterfly Kanae stood in front of several other members of the Demon Slayer Team. Hanazu's Japanese sword had already been unsheathed, and beside her, Butterfly Shinobu's strangely shaped Japanese sword was also pulled out from the sheath. The sisters Both of them had cuts to varying degrees, presumably caused by rescuing their teammates under the attack of the wind blade.

"Dead." Hikari Hinata looked back at Butterfly Kanae blankly.

The expression on Butterfly Shinobu's face was not good-looking, Future Chongzhu seemed to want to reprimand something, but was stopped by her sister.

"Shinobu, can I trouble you to help Yin send the wounded back to resettle?" Huazhu said with a smile, "I want to talk to Hinata."

Butterfly Shinobu's expression changed for a while, and finally chose to believe Butterfly Kanae.

As soon as he entered Hinata, he watched the roommate who lived with him follow the logistics team to carry the wounded onto the stretcher, without saying a word.It wasn't until she and Butterfly Kanae were left alone in the field that the girl turned her head and looked at her nominal "Master" in the Ghost Slayer Squad with questioning eyes.

In fact, the relationship between Butterfly Kanae and Ichiri Hinata is not good, at best it can be regarded as passable.Even Hua Zhu himself felt that his stepson had a better relationship with his younger sister than with himself.

"Just now, why didn't Hinata go to save them?"

She was referring to the members of the Demon Slayer Squad who were being ignored by Ikiriya Hinata and who were calling for help.

The girl with black hair and red pupils frowned slightly: "Is it necessary?"

Butterfly Kanae was not angry either, she still smiled, and continued following the other party's topic: "Is Hinata's judgment on 'whether to save someone' based on 'is it necessary'?"

"No," Hinata Iryu narrowed his eyes a little, "it's 'doesn't get in the way'."

In the situation just now, if she chooses to save her teammates first, then the most likely situation is that the ghost who was originally surrounded by Hua Zhu and Hua Zhu's stepson slipped away.

Ichiniriya didn't know what level the oni was in this mission, but if he could trouble Butterfly Kanae to take action, he probably wouldn't be someone who could be dealt with by just one person.

Between "let the ghost escape" and "do nothing to save her", she chose the latter.If sacrificing a few members of the Demon Slayer Team could successfully kill the more threatening Oni, Hinata Iriri felt that this was completely acceptable.

The escaped ghost may harm more people, and there is nothing wrong with sacrificing a few for the sake of the many.

"Then, do you think saving them will make the ghost escape?" Butterfly Kanae asked.

"Isn't it?" The girl raised her chin slightly, and she answered Butterfly Kanae's question in a tone of "you know what you are asking", "They are ghost hunters, and they should have such awareness when they pick up the sun wheel knife gone."

For a ghost hunter, being killed by a ghost in battle is not a disgrace, it is a decent way to die.

Most importantly, their deaths were "worthy".

Style seemed to sigh.However, the air sound squeezed out of Butterfly Kanae's throat was a little too soft, and Hinata couldn't hear it clearly.

"Why not think of another way?" she asked. "A way that doesn't sacrifice anyone, isn't there at all."

As soon as Hinata turned her head, her tone was stiff, obviously she didn't take Butterfly Kanae's persuasion to heart: "I can't think of it."

If there was a way to save her teammates and quickly kill the ghost before it escaped, she didn't mind trying.But in fact, such a method does not exist. It is like a multiple-choice question with fixed options. You can only find the answer you think is correct between A and B.

Hua Zhu was still smiling, "Everyone thinks so..."

Ghosts can eat people, and people can only choose to kill ghosts in order to prevent being eaten.It's not just Hinata, but almost all ghost hunters have this mindset: ghosts are evil, and ghosts must be killed to protect human beings.

But Butterfly Chanae doesn't think so.

Like humans, ghosts have joys, sorrows, sorrows, and treasures.After all, ghosts are transformed from humans. They used to be "humans", and they should be able to understand "humans". Ghost hunters, no, humans and ghosts just lacked a certain opportunity before.

An opportunity to live in peace with each other.

"...that's so stupid." Hinata Yirui sneered, "Ghosts want to eat people."

Ghosts want to eat people, and they will follow their nature to attack humans.Whether it is human or ghost, everyone is selfish. In order to survive, people will definitely fear ghosts, and ghosts will definitely attack humans in order to feed themselves.

Let the "hunter" and "prey" coexist peacefully, it is just a fantasy.

"No, there must be a way," Butterfly Kanae replied, "Hurt each other is not what anyone expects, is it?"

One day, Hinata seemed a little impatient, she straightened up and walked in the direction where Butterfly Shinobu left: "It's best not to say such things to other people, they will think you are crazy."

It's not just Hinata, most of the members of the Ghost Killing Squad have blood feuds with ghosts.

Let them live in peace with the monster who killed someone important to them?

What a joke.

"...I will prove it to you." Huazhu's tone became very serious came from behind, "I will prove it to Hinata that humans and ghosts can coexist harmoniously, so if I can prove it, we will meet again In today's situation, Hinata should also think of other ways, okay?"

Going around is still for this.

As soon as the sun set, he stopped.She turned her head to look at Butterfly Kanae's face.

Different from her sister Butterfly Ninja, who is lively, cut-throat and distinct in love and hate, Butterfly Kanae's aura is always calm and gentle. Although sometimes she will make some cruel jokes that make people laugh and cry, but in essence, the style is better than her side. The other three girls are more mature and gentle.

If only it wasn't so naive.As soon as I enter the sun, I want to think about it.Such innocence would kill her sooner or later.

But surprisingly not very annoying.

The girl with black hair and red eyes laughed at herself who was slightly shaken in her heart, while showing a bright smile to Butterfly Kanae.

"Well," she said, "if you can prove to me that men and ghosts can live in peace, I will listen to you."

play girl

Yoshihara has a new guest.

According to the description of the wandering girl who met him, it was a young master who didn't look like an adult, wearing a light yellow jacket with a Western-style uniform that was more popular in recent years, and the collar was very erect. high.

The young master is very eye-catching.

His eyes are red like jewels, his facial features are exquisite and gentle but heroic, his skin is fair, and there are calluses on his fingertips that only a martial arts practitioner would wear out—the most important thing is that he is generous and touches It's a child from a rich family who slipped out to play.

All in all, except for the inappropriate age, this new guest met all the expectations of the ideal reception object of the Yoshiwara girls.

On the fifth day when rumors of a "new guest" began to appear, Yuji met the person whom the wandering girls had passed on by word of mouth.

There seemed to be some injuries on his body, and the raised collar couldn't hide the bandages wrapped around his neck at all.

As the oiran of this store, Yu Ji naturally wouldn't get flustered just because she had the honor to receive the rumored person.Ever since she became an oiran, there have been more and more men around her, some are talking sweet words to her, and some are throwing a lot of money clamoring to get her registered.She is confident enough to please her guests.

However, this guest seemed a little strange.

Most of the men who come to Yoshiwara to have fun are a little careless, and Yuji has long been used to being "inadvertently" bumped into somewhere during the reception process.But the boy in front of him seemed to be just looking for a clean room, he sat like a sculpture in the corner of the room, and didn't even touch the drinks specially prepared by the proprietress.

Yu Ji held the shamisen and lowered her eyes to watch her nose and heart.

The guests have all kinds of personalities, and occasionally there will be weird people, so there is no need to make a fuss about this little thing.

After what seemed like a long time, the boy finally moved.He turned his head to look at the girl sitting opposite him, and asked, "Name?"

"Yu Ji."

You girls are not allowed to use their real names. After they are sold into Yoshiwara, they will be given various names, some nice, some not so nice. All in all, what the brothel managers need is the names of their women It is easy to remember but not so poetic.

The young master raised his eyelids again, "How long have you been in Yoshihara?"

Yu Ji didn't like his eyes very much, she felt that the other party looked at her as if she was looking at a dead object, "...it's been there since I can remember."

Most of the women working in Yoshiwara were sold in because they couldn't afford to eat.
