"Reiko, why did you save that murderer just now?"

Facing Wakana's question, Reiko pursed her lower lip and hesitated.

Guessing that she might not be good at explaining, and worried that she might make things more complicated in a hurry, Tanjiro hurriedly said, "Well, Wakana, it seems that we misunderstood just now, it's not a murderer, he just lost his way and wanted to ask us for directions , I'm sorry, because he has a bad face, I dragged you away indiscriminately."

Having said that, Wakana covered her lips with her fingers, and let out a wild laugh, "So that's what happened, Tanjiro, you really are, if it weren't for Reiko, wouldn't we have misunderstood good people? You still have that What a dangerous weapon."

Tanjiro humbly admits his mistake.

In fact, a good person is really not a good person. A monster is too lonely to scare people everywhere. The pranks of monsters are not something ordinary people can afford. Just now the monsters themselves said that they have scared away many tourists before them. Had to lie in bed for a few days.

Seeing this, Reiko said cooperatively, "That person does have a wicked face, no wonder he misunderstood it, now I'm fine, I'll go first."

Before Wakana could call to stop her, Reiko ran away without looking back, just like her sudden intrusion.

I thought this matter could be solved, but I didn't expect Wakana's mood to be very depressed on the way back. Tanjiro thought that she was blaming herself for misunderstanding others, but after asking, she realized that it was not the case at all.

Wakana looked at the raised hand in a daze, and murmured to herself, "It's the same as that time... I can only hide by the side, and I can't do anything else."

It shouldn't be like this.

It turned out that she was... so?What was she like?

Elite education, high-class banquets, parents' slander, she actually felt a little bit in a trance.

Wakana covered her head suddenly, and her face suddenly turned pale. Tanjiro worried that she would be too worried and bad for her health, so he said in a relaxed tone, "Wakana, what are you thinking? You don't need to put too much pressure on yourself, and don't worry about it." It was just a misunderstanding just now, even if it is really a bad person, Wakana has always lived in a peaceful environment, so it is natural to feel scared."

If it was really just because of fear, Wakasa would not have been eroded by such a sense of powerlessness. In fact, she miraculously did not feel afraid.

Now she is more afraid of her own memory, the fragments that keep flashing in her mind record the past, the peace is a little distorted, and there is a faint but lingering fear in her heart.

Tanjiro saw that what he just said had no effect at all, and said, "As for Wakana, what you said just now, Wakana is indeed very weak, not good at swordsmanship or martial arts, but her heart is very strong. Most people will be scared to death when encountering such a thing. Wakana is really gentle, she is not thinking about herself, she is actually worrying about my safety, right?"

Hearing the previous few words that made her useless, Wakana instinctively wanted to refute, but when she opened her mouth, she found that this was the truth. She was powerless, not to mention a vicious murderer, even a slightly stronger boy Can't handle it.

"Stop making fun of me, other than useless worries...what else can I do..."

The lingering sound of disappointment was blown away by the wind, and floated thinly to Tanjirou's heart, and he made a decisive decision, "Wakana, you teach me scientific knowledge, and in return, how about I teach you swordsmanship?"

"Huh?" Wakana really didn't think about it, she squeezed her limp arm with no muscles, and after a short period of anticipation, she inevitably felt timid, "Can I really do it?"

Tanjiro said affirmatively, "Of course! Wakana works so hard, no matter what she does, she can succeed in everything. Maybe the apprentice of the church starved me, the master, to death instead."

The half-joking tone successfully cleared Wakana's backlog of depression, and she smiled like a snow queen, "Master, after paying homage to the master, am I also a registered member of the Demon Slayer Squad?"

Tanjiro knew she was joking, so he didn't take it seriously, and just followed her words, "Of course, Wakana's salary will be deducted from me."

Speaking of salary, Wakana asked curiously, "A private armed group like yours should be similar in nature to a private company, right? The salary is paid by the leader. Are the usual benefits good?"

Tanjiro is just a newcomer, so he doesn't know much about finances.The Ghost Killing Squad is an unofficial organization that has not been recognized by the government. Talking about fighting ghosts will only be regarded as fantasy, and of course there will be no government funding.

So to feed so many members, if it weren't for the great business of the Ubuyashiki family, it would not be able to support the operation of such an organization.

He thought too deeply and failed to answer Wakana's question in the first place, so that he was mistaken for the treatment of the Demon Slayer Squad was extremely bad.

Before she opened her mouth to persuade him to find another job, Tanjiro quickly explained, "It's not like that, I just thought of something else, Wakana, don't think too much, I don't want those who are not seen by others Companions who fought desperately were misunderstood."

Seeing his serious face, Wakana also fell silent, and said in a low voice, "Sorry, I didn't mean to negate the efforts of your companions..."

It is disrespectful to others to know nothing about their work and still make free judgments.

When she was like this, Tanjiro also panicked, and waved his hands in a panic, "I, I, I didn't mean that! I know Wakana is unintentional, and she is all worried about me. We are treated very well, and there will be a large reward every time we complete a task. , Usually, there are places that provide free board and lodging. Well, what I want to say is that Wakana is not wrong at all, right! Aren’t you going to learn swordsmanship? How about we go and buy a wooden sword first? When practicing, you will get hurt if you use a real sword of."

Wakana was stunned by Tanjiro's incoherent words, and after a long while, she slowly responded, "Ah, there is a bamboo sword at home."

Tanjiro looked down at the woven gold brocade enclosing the Japanese sword, and almost forgot that it was originally used to hold the bamboo sword, "That means Wakana went to the dojo to learn, does she have a certain foundation?"

"It was actually a birthday gift I got from my father when I was 15 years old. I married Tsukihiko not long after that, so I never went to the dojo. I was only thinking about Tsukihiko and Gabaiko..."

Wakaca's voice is getting weaker and weaker. Looking back on the past six years, she has been completely revolving around her family, and she has completely forgotten her previous interests.

Feeling the slight stagnation in the air, Tanjiro pulled the topic in time, "It doesn't matter if you have zero foundation, just learn slowly, should we go back directly now or buy some food?"

The inexplicable anxiety was swept away, and Wakana smiled again, "Tanjiro, did you think too much about my stomach? There are no stones in it."

"Eh? No, no, no, I'm just worried that I'll be hungry from too much exercise just now."

"It's you, not me, who are fighting, so Tanjiro, are you hungry? It's a bit of a detour to go to the shopping street here, why don't you go home and cook some dumplings for you? Or do you want to eat something else first?"

"Well, thank you, I'm not taboo, I can eat anything."
