The man saw his child coming and had a complicated expression:

"Shintaro, why are you here?"

The seven or eight-year-old boy named Shintaro looked at Horitake with fear and disgust, and quickly pulled the man back:

""Dad! Let's ignore him! Let's go home!"

The man stood up, looked at Hori Gaku apologetically, and was pulled away by his son Shintaro.

Something is wrong! Very wrong! It's wrong from beginning to end!

The man just now must know something, but he didn't dare to say it clearly, so he gave Hori Gaku all kinds of hints during the conversation.

The man's behavior was already wrong enough, and the boy's behavior was even more wrong!

Why did he hate a stranger like himself when they met for the first time?

And this Shintaro, when he pulled the man away just now, showed a heavy complaint to his father.

Looking at the backs of the man and the child, Hori Gaku sensed something, turned his head abruptly, and looked at the street!

Several children of different ages were secretly staring at him on the other side of the street. These children were peeking at Hori Gaku.���The sight was strange, their expressions seemed to be a little scared and... pity! ?

The children were caught peeking, and they all scattered in fear.

Something was wrong! Very wrong! Everything was wrong! The children in Toma Town were especially wrong!

Looking at the setting sun, Hori Gaku felt that there was an abnormal, depressing and weird atmosphere in this town.

There must be a ghost.

Maybe this ghost is not very powerful, but the harm and panic it caused are not small. The whole Toma Town has been tortured abnormally by this ghost.

Let's count the information we have obtained.

In general, there are two pieces of information.

First, the missing or dead people are all couples.

Second, the children of these couples are fine. It is said that these children are still fine.

According to the personality of the ghost and the experience before becoming a ghost, different ghosts have different preferences for eating people.

For example, Douma of Upper String Two does not like to eat men, and for example, Akaza of Upper String Three hardly hurts women.

But it is the first time to hear of a ghost that only targets couples.

Hori Gaku couldn't help but wonder if this ghost is a single dog? Before becoming a ghost, they were always showing affection, so after becoming a ghost, they took revenge on those couples?

Of course, this is just a joke, and this theory doesn't make sense.

If it is the resentment of singles, this ghost should not only target couples, but also lovers.

And Hori Gaku also noticed that these couples who died or were killed were all couples with children, and their children were not big and had not reached adulthood.

Combined with the strange behavior of the children in Toma Town, these children are tricky.

Hori Gaku has an immature guess.

His guess still needs other information to further prove it.

Where to find other information?

Of course, go to the man just now!

It's not that Hori Gaku has been catching a sheep and plucking wool. He asked so many people, and only the man just now cooperated the most, and hinted Hori Gaku a lot without making a sound.

Hori Gaku felt that he would definitely get more information from him.

This time he couldn't ask directly, couldn't beat around the bush, and could only secretly inquire.

After confirming that there was no one around, Hori Gaku dodged and jumped onto the roof next to him. When he climbed up, he saw the uncle and his child just now.

The boy named Shintaro took his father's hand and walked home quickly, his face full of irritability and anxiety, mumbling in his mouth, as if he was complaining about his father.

The man was pulled by his child, his eyes were dull and dark, his feet dragged on the ground, and he felt like a walking corpse.

Horitake jumped lightly between the roofs and followed them.

Not long after, the man and the child returned to their home and closed their door tightly, as if there was a flood or beast outside.

Horitake landed lightly on the roof of their house. When his spiritual vision was turned on, he saw the situation of the father and son after returning home, and heard their conversation.

After entering the house, the man returned to the house like a walking corpse, sitting limply in the corner, still looking miserable.

Shintaro locked the door tightly, ran into the house, and saw his decadent father. He stomped his feet and burst into tears while stomping his feet. He cried and accused his father while crying:

""Father! Why are you talking to someone you don't know? Do you want to kill me? Or do you want to kill yourself?"

Looking up at his son, the man said quietly:

"The man just now...is not from this town, he is from outside."

The child cried and made a fuss:

"I know about this kind of thing! I asked you why you wanted to contact outsiders! ? Now it’s good! They must have seen you talking to outsiders! I must report to him tonight!

I don’t want to find that monster!

I will be eaten by him!

Wow... woo woo woo woo... (crying very loudly)"

The decadent man came over and stroked his son Shintaro's head. Although he was also scared, he tried his best to comfort his son:

"Don't worry, you won't be eaten by him. He has never eaten a child in such a long time, right?"

Xin Tailang collapsed and shouted at the man:

"But dad, you will be eaten by him! He specializes in eating other people's parents!"

While wiping his tears, Xin Tailang cried loudly:

"Dad, you talked to outsiders for so long. What if he suspected you of leaking the information and ate you?

Woohoo… I don’t want my dad to be eaten! I don’t want it! I only have my dad."

The man suppressed his fear and jokingly comforted his son:

"No, Dad won’t be eaten. Dad just chatted with outsiders casually and didn’t reveal his secret, right?"

"I know! I believe in Dad, too, but……"Shintaro cried and sobbed:"But he may not believe dad! He will suspect that dad has revealed his identity!

And he is a monster! If a monster wants to eat people, how can it find any reason?

Narita's parents, Xiaohua's parents, Moriara's parents... and so many friends' parents, were all eaten by him!

I don't want you, dad, to be eaten by him too!"

Hori Gaku sat on the roof, listening to these words, thinking in his heart:

Tsk, the amount of information is a bit too much.

In the room, listening to his son Shintaro's crying, the man began to lose control of his fear. His face began to turn pale, but he still wanted to appear calm:

"Don't panic, don't panic, no, Dad won't be eaten.

When you go to report to him tonight, stay calm.

No matter how he asks you, you just need to insist on answering: My father didn't reveal the secret!

Of course, the premise is not to anger him, Xintaro, you have to ensure your own safety!

As long as you are safe, Dad will be relieved!"

At this moment, the man was thinking:

I hope that the man just now is the legendary demon-killing swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps. I hope he can solve the monster, and it will not be in vain for me to risk so much to hint to him.

If not... at worst, I will be eaten by that monster!

According to his habit, after I die, he will not hurt Xintaro, Xintaro is still a child.

Although Xintaro will have a hard life without his father and will be gathered around him, at least he will not lose his life!" At this moment, the father has already made up his mind to die.
