The Mystery of Fangshi Edo

When Zamen Tanhiko was a child, he once heard his grandmother talk about the struggle between people and ghosts a hundred years ago.

It was not a beautiful story, full of hard and sad battles and partings. The horror of ghosts described by grandma scared him when he was just a child, but after the fear, what remained in his heart was indeed more complicated. feel.

He couldn't tell what it was, but silently hoped that the ancestors could live a happy life after reincarnation, and also hoped that the gods would forgive the ghosts one day and let them become human beings again.

Tan Yan likes to sleep very much, and his future dream is to go to the zoo to take care of slow lorises, so he was complained by his brother Zaomen Bifang, "If you live with them, no one will notice that something is wrong." But even though he said so Afterwards, Bifang deliberately researched a lot of information about slow lorises. After learning that this cute and bully animal is actually highly poisonous, he strongly suggested Tan Yan to take care of relatively safe sloths instead.

Let's not mention these for now.In short, in Tanhiko's recent dreams, he often dreams about the time when his grandmother told him stories about the past.

Like some kind of premonition.

When I saw the figure appearing across the street today, I had a premonition.

"This way."

His ancestor named Kamado Tanjiro led Tanhiko all the way to a place close to the tram stop.

While running, the teenager took out his mobile phone from his pocket and dialed his brother's number, but after a while, the other party's 'temporarily unavailable' sound came from the receiver.

Although the signal on the tram is not very good, it is generally no problem to make a phone call.

And my brother left school so long before me, and it was only two stops from school to home, so how could he still be in the car?

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, so Tan Yan could not help speeding up his pace, and temporarily suppressed what his mother said to him a few days ago, "I can no longer run on the street in such a dangerous way", said sorry in my heart, and copied it. Not so safe trails.

... The sound of a motorcycle came from my ears.

It wasn't surprising at first, but the sound of the motorcycle seemed to be near him all the time.

In the end, Tanhiko, who was highly concentrated on the road, met the cyclist's eyes when he climbed over an iron fence.

It was a young man with short brown hair, and his surprised and puzzled eyes could be vaguely seen under the motorcycle helmet.

"Ah, sorry!"

Probably because I hindered the normal passage...I'm really sorry.

Tanhiko sincerely apologized, and finally turned around and entered the crowded station.

……

At the same time, on the moving tram.

"You can think of the parallel train next to you as a predator, and the prey is this train we're in. Once it has served its purpose, it will take all the souls of this place and leave an empty compartment to return to reality. ——This is the so-called 'hidden spirit'."

While rummaging around for something, Yushiro introduced the current situation to Kanae.

"Although occasionally there will be gods or evil spirits who hide human beings, but this is the first time I have encountered someone with such a big appetite."

"So... so." Kanae nodded, accepted the status quo with difficulty, and then touched the spell on her head, "Then what is this?"

"A talisman with a blood ghost technique that conceals the aura. This thing can make the car on the opposite side temporarily unaware of your existence." He replied, found the emergency hammer in his hand, and also pasted a piece of talisman paper on it, and returned to the car. Next to the car window that he had just punched out, he threw the hammer viciously.

There was a crisp sound of glass shattering, and a hole appeared in the opposite car window.

"Are you going to jump over?" Kanae immediately realized the other party's intention, "It's too dangerous!"

"You have to stop the car on the other side," Yushiro said, looking beyond the fallen stove door, "otherwise the people in that car won't be able to come back."

"Then please let me go too."

"You..." Yushiro frowned and looked over, but when he saw Kanae's worried expression about himself, he seemed to think of something, and finally just turned his head, "You stay here, you may need me later Pull back."

Although that gentle demeanor is very similar, but she is not Lord Zhu Shi...

Soul is different.

"I understand, but wait a moment!" The woman seemed to suddenly remember something, and took out her mobile phone from her bag, "Please tell me your phone number, so that I can be contacted if there is anything."

"Don't be so troublesome."

"Eh?"

"My blood ghost technique can directly share vision."

Yushiro said, without waiting for Kanae's reaction, he jumped out of the car window, smashed through the glass on the opposite side that had been smashed, and landed steadily on the opposite side.

Patting the shards of glass on his body, the small scratches also recovered at an astonishing speed, Yushiro turned his head and looked into the compartment.

Then, I opened my eyes wide.

"You are……!"

……

After parking the motorcycle, Fang Shi Yangming took off his helmet and put on the baseball cap prepared in advance.

In fact, I have considered whether to wear a sunglasses mask and fully armed, but that would be a bit of a cover-up, and it would be inconvenient.

Anyway, he was already in the ranks of 'common-sense people', and he didn't have any strange hair color or shape, so he didn't worry about being recognized at a glance.

Then he walked into the station.

"Speaking of which, that kid just now was really amazing."

Is that parkour?Anyway, it was a sport he didn't dare to try.

【"You mean that kid over there?"】

"Ok?"

Fang Shi Yangming looked around, and soon found that young man who looked particularly abrupt in the hurried crowd.

Because he was running around like a headless chicken, as if looking for someone.

"Lord Shinna, can I ask a question?" Fang Shi Yangming asked, "You just said that Miss Kanae was hidden by the gods, what would the person who was hidden by the gods look like to the outside world?"

【"What else can I do? It's nothing more than disappearing,"】 Raccoon replied, 【"Only those closest to me will remember, but gradually they will also forget it."】

In other words, there will be an empty train at that time, and then no one knows why there is no one on this train, and no one remembers who was on it.

... sounds too bad.

【"Do you want to start acting? I can teleport you to the opponent's territory, but after that, you can only rely on yourself."】

More than a year ago, in order to save Hisako Mamiya, Shinna Myojin confronted that evil god once. As a result, although the other party promised to let Ma Gong go, he also made the raccoon promise that he would never interfere in his predation again. action.

If he breaks the 'promise', in the worst case, he may become... like in the chaotic past, becoming a subordinate of the evil god.

So no matter what, she can no longer take the risk of going into battle to find people herself.

At most, he would move his hands and feet while wiping, such as throwing Fang Shi Yangming into the opponent's field.

"Before that, I'll talk to that boy over there."

As Fang Shi Yangming said, he walked towards Tanyan at the kitchen gate.

"Well, excuse me, may I ask you..."

He skillfully opened the topic, but before he finished speaking, he suddenly saw a young figure appearing beside the other party, and Ji Guoyansheng, who had disappeared for a long time, also suddenly appeared beside him.

Both sides put their hands on the hilt of the knife, creating an atmosphere of tension.

"The person who inherited the Yuanyi breathing method...why...are you here?"

"Are you the ghost of Kamizuichi?" Kamado Tanjiro, who looks about in his 20s -- to be precise, his ghost, also expressed doubts.

Yan Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then replied in a deep voice: "...not anymore."

"I see." Hearing this, Tanjiro put away his nervous look just now, and even smiled at him, "Sorry, I misunderstood."

The samurai of the Warring States also took half a step back and said no more.

Tanjiro has never been someone who holds hatred stubbornly in his heart, and after Iwakatsu died once and became a ghost and spent so long with Fangishi Yangming, he has long since faded away from the persistence of being a ghost.

They have no reason to be enemies.

"Excuse me...?" Zaomen Tanhiko found the opportunity to ask, "Can I go? I have to go find my brother."

"I'm looking for someone just like you." Fangishi Yangming took the words, and then looked at Kamado Tanjiro, "Right now, Ms. Butterfly Kanae is in the car that had an accident, but that car is no longer here, and even Not in the world we're in right now...

I am an ally of Ubuyashiki, trust me. "

……

The minimum number of vertices that make up a plane is three.

As long as there are three endpoints, the most basic triangle, or 'enchantment' or 'field' can be constructed.

"I have Miss Kanae's phone number here," of course I borrowed it temporarily from Ubuyashiki, Fangishi Yangming thought in his heart, and said to Kamado Tanhiko, "Please use your mobile phone to call your brother, and then Call her number again so that we can have the most basic contact with each other's territory."

"I understand!"

After Fangishi Yangming made a brief self-introduction and told Tanjiro that he was working in the maternity house, the other party quickly chose to trust him for a while.

After all, there is no other better way.

The two humans were busy here, and the two ghosts were not idle.

"You are already a ghost... Logically speaking, you can hack into the phone's signal..."

"Mobile phone signal?"

Having just returned to the world, Kamado Tanjiro, who has never touched modern equipment, struggles to understand the meaning of Ji Kuniwa Katsu's words.

You must know that he was taken aback by the cars all over the street just now, if he was not eager to find the ghost of the other party and the Chanel who mostly followed the other side, he might have been stunned by the modern landscape full of tall buildings and stayed in place.

By the way, the reason why my wife Shanyi appeared earlier than him was only because the novels he wrote had been read many times by Shanzhao, and the resonance between the two of them was higher.

"Mobile phone... you can understand it as a crow, but it is lifeless, and it transmits information to each other through thin lines invisible to the naked eye, and we can capture those thin lines and follow them back and forth to places that should not be reachable. far away."

Yansheng raised a finger and explained unhurriedly.

"It's not just information these days... even sound, images can go back and forth easily in a split second."

But theoretically, a ghost without limits could even complete the shuttle faster than these things.

"Is that so..."

Although it is still very difficult, it seems to understand a little bit.

I don't know why, but Tanjiro always feels that the former Uzuru Oni ​​in front of him seems to be having fun.

The author has something to say: Yan Sheng: I have to show these Ghost Slayer Team introduction horror movies later.
