I don’t know if your request has worked, but BIO soon brought you a new mission. Several incidents of missing passengers occurred on a train named Infinity. You are required to go to the scene as soon as possible and cooperate with the Yanzhu Purgatory Xing Shoulang, who had been staying in the car for several days, conducted an investigation.

It can only be said that the times are different. In the past, it was hard to find ghosts in the world, but now they know how to commit crimes in troubled waters on vehicles with a lot of traffic. Ashamed, he didn't even have dinner at Choya, and after saying goodbye to Zenitsu and Tanjiro who were about to start functional recovery training, they set off with a sword.

It seems that in the blink of an eye, the four seasons have turned to midsummer. The night is late, and you rush to the station designated by the mission before Antares in Scorpio lights up. The security measures in this era are not as strict as they will be in a century. Haorishita followed the other passengers into the car as if nothing had happened.

You find the incumbent Yanzhu chowing down near a stack of bento boxes piled high.

"Delicious! Delicious!" The man with strange hair praised full of air. He sat at the dining table awe-inspiringly, repeating this sentence every time he ate a bento, like an emotionless repetition. Machine, but the tone is very sincere.

You look at each other in shock.

This, this piercing big round almond eyes, the thick black eyebrows with forked tails, the enviably thick hair, this wonderful hair color that seems to be naturally suitable for playing cards...

Isn't it the so-and-so who introduced you and Yuanyi to join the Ghost Killing Squad back then!

No wonder you always feel that the surname of Purgatory is somewhat familiar after you receive the mission. After going around together, you met the descendants of your old acquaintance in the Ghost Slaying Squad.

The inheritance of the Japanese is really terrible. You think, all the offspring look like clones copied and pasted out, their traits are so stable that it makes people cry, and even the occupation for making a living has not changed.

The children of the charcoal sellers are still selling charcoal, and the children of the ghost killers are still killing ghosts. The 400 years in the world seem to have never passed. Some inexplicable emotions appear in your heart, and there is a sound coming from the open car window. The sigh of the wind "delicious!"

"good to eat!"

"good to eat!"

...In short, you have to stop this repeater first.

You walked up to Purgatory Xingshourou, paused for a moment just right, and waited for him to cast his gaze on you before bowing his head and politely saying hello.

"Mr. Purgatory?" You asked, "I am Kazushin Wei, who is new to the team in this period. I am responsible for assisting your investigation mission. Please give me your advice."

"Hey! Swordsman Weiming!" Purgatory beckoned, with an unexpectedly enthusiastic attitude.

"Have you had dinner yet?" He asked, smiling brightly and brightly, as if the half-person tall bento on the side didn't exist. "The bento here is very delicious, would you like some?"

You don't have the habit of eating during working hours, so you declined his suggestion politely, and Purgatory didn't force you, he quickly finished the last bit of food in the bento, and raised his hand to ask the waiter to come and collect the lunch box.

After waiting for a while, you see that the other party is sitting with arms folded, with a posture of "the rest time is over", and you also have a correct expression, and ask him about the specific situation of this mission.

"Relevant information?" Purgatory thought for a while, and told the truth: "There are more than ten victims who disappeared on this train, and the team members sent before have also lost their voices one after another. The ghosts we have to deal with this time Your strength should not be weak, that's why the lord sent me here as Nine Pillars."

"Maybe it's the Twelve Ghost Moons," he added, "Swordsman Weiming had better be mentally prepared, and don't underestimate the enemy."

You seem to understand and nod.

You can't really tell the fighting power of ghosts.

Just like Saitama, the protagonist in "One Punch Man", doesn't care how many A-level heroes he has defeated by the monsters he faces, and you can't understand how strong those ghosts who can kill the members of the Demon Slayer Team are probably. , it’s just that the sense of reality you lack as a player has separated your cognition. Compared with the number of victims that seem to be used to fill the background of the story, or the clear values ​​​​such as level and ATK, it is easier for you to understand the strength of the opposite wild monster .

Because you and Purgatory are carrying knives, it is inconvenient to move around in the carriage, so you have to give up your plan to search the train. The voices were swallowed up by the night together.

Yanzhu is sitting opposite you, motionless, you are a little bored with nothing to do, but you have no intention of talking to him - if you like to socialize, you would have left the Zhaijia school millions of years ago.

You stared aimlessly at the door, and saw the ticket inspector in a dark uniform slowly enter the compartment and walk along the seats to check tickets for passengers.

"...Please let me see your tickets."

The ticket inspector walks up to you and reaches out his hand in a businesslike manner. You, who are already prepared, immediately hand him the ticket in your hand. The ticket inspector looks at it and cuts a small opening on the rough cardboard.

"Your ticket is confirmed." He said, and only then did you notice that the other person's face was very haggard, as if he hadn't slept well for a long time, or like a sick person whose old injury was not healed. He returned the ticket You, walk up to the next passenger.

The current service industry is really hard.You can't help but think that the reason you have to come to work with such an ugly face is probably because your family needs money and you can't take time off work.

When you put away the ticket stubs and raised your head to face Yanzhu, you suddenly realized something belatedly.

What about purgatory?Why don't the ticket inspectors check tickets for purgatory?

You turned your head and wanted to remind him to come back to check the ticket, but a violent shaking interrupted your movement. The moving train seemed to hit some obstacle, the carriage shook severely, and there were screams all over the place.

You quickly stretched out your hand, trying to hold onto the edge of the table to stabilize the center of gravity, but you caught nothing, and inexplicably had a cold chess box in your hand.

You were stunned and looked around subconsciously.

For a moment, you feel that time has stopped, the world is silent, and the lights on the roof are blinding your eyes.

But soon, everything came alive again.

You see the car compartment is torn apart during the bumps, suddenly revealing the bright sky, the hard iron walls are dissipated like shredded paper, the wooden seats are blown to ashes in the shock, all the passengers have disappeared, and the fine drops of water are falling from the sky, which is the rain of the sun , You ran unknowingly, and the slanting rain soaked your sackcloth.

Oh no, no, no, you shouted in your heart, why did it suddenly rain?You don't have a few clothes to change and wash, and you have to go back to take care of your wife in the afternoon. If that dogbi man with a lot of shit sees you in such a mess, he will definitely reprimand your wife for disciplining others——

Damn, it would be better to poison him to death!

You stride through the long and narrow corridor with the corner of your skirt that is inconvenient to run. In the courtyard, Ji rose is blooming. Small white flowers are blooming in your direction, and crystal water drops fall from the gaps in the petals. , fell heavily into the grass.

"...Isee trees of green red rosestoo..."

...Speaking of which, why are you running around with a chess box in your hands like a crazy woman?

You slowly stopped, looking hesitantly at the wooden box in your hand, suddenly unable to remember the reason why you appeared here.

The physical condition of the body you are using now is extremely poor, and it is not congenitally afraid of the cold. If you accidentally catch a cold due to the rain, and it deteriorates into pneumonia in this era without western medicine, it will only take a few minutes to hit BadEnd.

"... Iseethembloomformeandyou..."

Go back to your room and change your clothes.

With that in mind, you got up and walked in the other direction.

Beside the courtyard not far away, two teenagers sat side by side and looked up at the sky. They heard your footsteps and turned their heads to look at you together.

"You're back." You heard them say, it's a pair of twin brothers, the elder brother wears hair and clothes, the younger brother has red lines on his forehead, and a pile of flowers are scattered around them.

You remember.

Your two young masters were playing cards before, and you told them that you wanted to play together, and they agreed, so you ran back to the room, pulled out a game of multi-player Hua Shuang Liu, and hurriedly brought it over in the rain.

"...And I think to myself what a wonderful world."

Yes, you remembered it all.

Your name is Axi, you are 17 years old this year, and you are the maid of the wife of the successor of the local family.

Besides that, you have another identity.

You are a player, playing a game called "World", and you have to manipulate this account to live until you are 80 years old and escape the fate of premature death.

The author has something to say: ... I am a certain person is really not worthy of writing web articles|

It's not an illusion, dreaming back to the Warring States Period

Would it be too much if I said that I plan to write ten thousand or twenty thousand words of memories

Isee trees of green red rosestoo,

I see green trees and red roses,

Iseethembloomformeandyou,

I see them open for you and me,

And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I couldn't help thinking, what a wonderful world this is.

——From "What A Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong, a song I like very much. By the way, the last chapter of JOJO6's manga "Sea of ​​Stone" also quotes the title of this song as the title|
