Chapter 1638 Yoshihara (the drawing is crooked)
The actual leader of the Demon Slayer Corps, Uyashiki, gave Duanmuhuai a somewhat unexpected task. He hoped that Duanmuhuai could sneak into Yoshihara Yuguo and investigate him. According to the intelligence, there is probably an evil spirit lurking in Yoshihara Yukoku, and it is a high-level evil spirit. It is very likely that he is one of the Twelve Ghost Moons.
"As you can see, the Demon Slayer Team is currently seriously short of manpower, and the Demon Slayer members below the pillars are not strong enough to shoulder this important task. Although I also hope to send some people from the Nine Pillars, there is currently insufficient manpower. ………”
"Okay, no problem."
Duanmu Huai didn't hesitate and agreed. He had been to Yoshihara Yuguo in another world, but unfortunately it was a gathering place for cults at that time, and modern Yuguo always lacked that flavor. If you really want to say that You Guo is a product of the old era, it must have the most authentic taste of the old era!
This is the authentic Yoshiwara Yuguo, why not go and see it?
"Then who should I contact after I arrive in Yoshiwara?"
"This..."
Hearing Duanmu Huai's inquiry, Uyashiki smiled bitterly.
"I'm afraid you can only investigate on your own, because...we only collected some information..."
“…………………………”
Faced with Uyashiki's answer, Duanmuhuai fell into silence.
"In other words, your Demon Slayer Squad has no base to collect intelligence in Yoshiwara Yuguo, so I have to start from scratch?"
"That's it..."
"What kind of grass-roots team are you..."
Duanmu Huai raised his head and covered his face, completely speechless.
Evil ghosts cannot move during the day and can only move at night. According to common sense, if evil ghosts want to blend into the human world, areas with rich nightlife will naturally be their first choice. And places like Youguo, where people work at night and rest during the day, are even more key monitoring areas.
This is the same as the Inquisition's investigation of the hive city. If you want to find heretics in the hive city, you must first check the lower levels of the hive city. After all, the lower level of the hive is where mutants and heretics gather, and it is the place where cults are most likely to breed. The Tribunal will usually reach a cooperation agreement with the gangs that rule the lower levels of the hive city. The gangs will provide intelligence, and then the Tribunal will launch targeted eliminations.
After all, for the gangs, those cults would also threaten their rule over the lower levels of the hive city, and it would be great to be able to eliminate them with the help of the Inquisition.
In fact, let alone the trial court, even the modern police will have one or two gangsters as informants. Otherwise, if you hear the news always saying "the police have received reports" and so on, you really think that the people in Chaoyang have great powers and are omnipotent, ranging from taking drugs. Do you know everything from drug trafficking to smuggling antiques?
Originally, Duanmu Huai thought that the Demon Slayer Corps had already had its own surveillance and intelligence network in Youguo, and that all he had to do was go over there and contact them.
So you told me to do this?
Do you have to start from scratch when co-authoring me?
"Has your Demon Slayer Squad been established for less than a year?"
Duanmuhuai looked at Ubuyashiki like he was an idiot. If you say it was an ordinary place, it would be fine if the intelligence network couldn't get there. You don't send people to monitor areas like You Guo, which is a theoretically important area to be monitored. Are you making trouble? You, the co-author, are also a grassroots team, right?
"Hey! Don't be rude to the lord!"
At this moment, the white-haired man jumped up again and stared at Duanmuhuai menacingly, and Duanmuhuai stared back without hesitation.
"What's wrong with me for being rude? Why don't you let me say I'm stupid? Evil ghosts move at night, so a place like Youguo must be a key monitoring area. But now you tell me that something happened and you only found out that there are evil ghosts there? This Aren’t you stupid or something! Why did you go there earlier?”
"You bastard! Watch me deal with you! Call of the Wind...!"
"I call you paralyzed!"
Before Bai Mao could finish his words, Duanmu Huai punched him in the face and knocked him away. The latter crashed through the wall and disappeared into the woods outside.
However, at this moment, the other Nine Pillars also stood up and surrounded Duanmu Huai.
"Even if you are a distinguished guest invited by your lord, you will not be allowed to be so provocative!"
"Come if you are not afraid of death."
Facing the nine pillars that surrounded him, Duanmu Huai was not afraid at all. Damn it, a grass-roots team with no fart ability, let's not let anyone talk about it! ?
"This is what happens to people who have no idea of their own strength. It seems I have to let you experience the cruel reality!"
"——————Boom!"
As Duanmuhuai finished speaking, an unparalleled terrifying pressure fell from the sky without warning, directly pressing on Jiuzhu! They even had to bend down and get down on one knee!
This, what kind of terrifying power is this!
Kneeling on the ground, Jiuzhu was also shocked at this moment. Except for Shan Nahui, who had already expected Duanmu Huai's strength, no one else expected that the seemingly petite girl in front of him had such a terrifying and powerful sense of oppression. The huge coercion that seemed to be as substantial as Mount Tai was like stones pressing on them. It completely made them unable to move. Even breathing became extremely difficult, as if the whole person was completely suppressed. Like under a boulder!
"Please stop, Miss Duanmu."
At this moment, Ubuyashiki spoke hurriedly.
"Please forgive their rudeness, and I apologize to you for their reckless behavior."
“…………………………”
Duanmuhuai glanced at the obstetrics and gynecology department, and then withdrew his pressure. At this moment, Jiuzhu didn't dare to say any more and could only maintain that posture and kneel on the ground. This is not because they are afraid of Duanmu Huai, but because they are unwilling to let their lord apologize to this girl again.
"I admit that our Demon Slayers still have many shortcomings, but we also have our own supporters. Those who have been saved by us from the evil spirits will also recognize our existence and assist us... In fact, this We got the news from one of the facilitators. If you have a better idea... we are all ears."
"Okay, it seems that you are not a master of the Caotai team."
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai felt somewhat comfortable.
"Of course I have a better way, but..."
"But?"
"You will reimburse me."
"………………Reimbursement?"
Yoshihara Yuguo.
The night city is a mixture of men and women's vanity, desire and love and hate.
Here, men and women have fun, and countless shops extract money from these pleasures.
But wherever there are winners there are losers.
"Here, sir, are you serious?"
The man sitting in front of Duanmuhuai is the owner of "Takaseya", one of the girls' houses in Yoshihara Yuguo. This is a traveling girl's house that was once quite famous in Yoshiwara. However, with the disappearance of its signature oiran, Nabi Taifu, Takase House's business has plummeted, and now it has even reached... Well, in modern terms Say, on the verge of bankruptcy.
The purpose of Duanmu Huai coming here is... to inject capital, buy shares, and become a shareholder of this Takase House.
Of course, there is no such saying in this era, but the meaning is still obvious.
"That's right."
Duanmuhuai waved his hand and stared at the man kneeling in front of him. He found this store through the so-called "facilitators" of the Demon Slayer Corps. After all, the Demon Slayer Corps went out to hunt evil spirits and saved many people, including many middle-class businessmen, and they would also be in their own way. Provide assistance to the Demon Slayer Squad to the best of your ability. This time, Duanmuhuai found the boss of Takase House after conducting inquiries and investigations through the helpers of the Demon Slayer Squad.
"My father was once taken care of by Takase House, and I couldn't bear to see the former brand withdraw from Yoshiwara, so I am willing to pay to revive Takase House again. However, I still have my own business to do, and the boss You know Yoshiwara better than I do, so I hope you can continue to maintain Takaseya.”
"Oh oh oh..."
Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, the man burst into tears with excitement and pressed his forehead to the tatami.
"Thank you sir, thank you sir, I will definitely live up to your kindness..."
"Hmm..."
Duanmu Huai nodded. At this moment, he naturally changed his appearance and put on a male costume of this era. He also put on a wig and pretended to be the son of a wealthy businessman who had returned from studying abroad.
As for the money needed...it must be reimbursed by the Demon Slayer Corps.
Is it possible that Duanmuhuai can't do it on his own?
Places like the lower level of the nest city and Youguo are actually similar to semi-enclosed places like shopping streets. The flow of people coming and going is relatively fixed, and they are relatively familiar with each other. On the other hand, it is not easy to break into it, especially since the Demon Slayer Squad did not have a continuous contact network before this, which meant that Duanmu Huai had to do this thing himself.

Therefore, the best way is to let local people who are familiar with this place be responsible for providing and gathering information, and you only need to screen it. To achieve this, the most important thing is to turn the other party into a community of interests.
It costs a lot to run a yandere's house. In addition to the yandere herself as a "commodity", there are also "bald" who are responsible for taking care of and serving the yandere, and "hands" who supervise the yandere and the bald. In the yandere's house The "prostitute" who is responsible for soliciting customers at the door, They clean the room, deal with drunken guests, serve as bodyguards, cooks, and furoban who boil water for the girls to bathe in. There are even people who tell the girls the time and provide lamp oil for the room. "Sleepless episode" and so on.
It can be said that the cost of managing a tourist house is definitely not low, even higher than the cost of simply running a hotel. The most important thing about a yuga house is the yandere. Once there is no more attractive top nympho, then the rest of the entire yuga house will be a net loss.
Just like a hotel that cannot be opened during the epidemic, it is only a matter of time before guests come to the hotel.
This is the problem for Takaseya right now. Because it has lost its top oiran, and its store does not have enough new people to support it, it cannot compete with other stores and is about to close down.
At this moment, Duanmuhuai fell from the sky, bringing them a glimmer of hope.
Of course, Duanmu Huai is not saying that he will always sponsor them, but it will allow Takase House to survive this period of time. As long as they cultivate new top players, they will be able to gain a foothold again. Once the funds are turned over, the problem will be solved. Solved.
However, the boss is still very grateful to Duanmuhuai. After all, providing help in times of need is far better than adding icing on the cake.
Although it is said that the problem can be solved by cultivating new top players, it is not an easy task. If it cannot be sustained before then, then naturally there will be no follow-up.
But the money is not wasted.
"Actually, I have a small request."
"Oh?"
"I hope you can conceal my identity. I will work here as Ruozhong."
"Why is this...?"
It must be said that Duanmu Huai's request made the boss quite confused.
"Master, you may not know something. Controlling a wandering girl's house has considerable power, such as taste... Aren't you interested in this?"
Taste...
Hearing this word, Duanmu Huai raised his eyebrows. He does know what this means. The source of wandering girls is basically a business relationship. Some parents sold their daughters, while others sold them to pay off debts. But even so, there are different relationships.
One of them is borrowing money. When You Nu sells herself to You Guo, it is a "debt relationship". As long as You Nu works hard and pays off the money she owes You Guo, she will be free.
There is also buying and selling, but the latter is only chosen by those who are completely desperate. After all, the former still has a certain degree of personal freedom, while the latter is basically no different from a slave.
It’s just that generally slaves like the latter will not become wandering girls. After all, the madams in charge of the wandering girls’ house are all experienced. They can tell at a glance who is popular and who is not... and those who are. Naturally, even if the conditions are better for a hot wandering girl, she still has to persuade her to come to her store.
Only those that no one wants are bought and sold like slaves.
Well, actually now, there is no difference between the madam and those talent scouts.
However, not everyone can be a wandering girl. The quality is the final step of the investigation, and the shop owner personally confirms the condition of the product.
Um? What? not understand?
The product of Yunonnaya is Yunvv. In the final analysis, it depends on the condition of the Yunvv herself, such as whether she has feelings, whether there are no scars, reactions and skills, etc... To put it bluntly, after the store owner has completed training on the product, before shipping it Try it once first and confirm that it is qualified before you are allowed to "come out" to pick up customers.
This is taste.
"No, no need."
Duanmu Huai shook his head. Not to mention that he couldn't do it now, even if Duanmu Huai returned to his true form, he wouldn't be interested. It was true that Duanmu Huai was so miserable when being trained by Ling Nu, that Duanmu Huai also had a certain degree of psychological shadow on this routine. Once anything becomes a routine, it becomes less fun.
The only ones who would get excited hearing such things are those young boys who have never even touched a girl's hand.
"Actually, I plan to conduct an investigation of Flower Street as a report."
"Report...?"
"Yes, a research report from the university, so I hope to get along with the people in Huajie as a companion, and please don't reveal my identity to them."
"That's okay, but in that case, they might be rude to you..."
"If I have a problem, I will talk to you directly."
Although it is not impossible to simply infiltrate in disguise, unexpected troubles can easily arise if a conflict occurs. That's why Duanmu Huai went around in a big circle and controlled the boss first. In this way, even if he caused any problems or troubles, the boss would stand by his side and help him clean it up.
"I understand, sir, if you have any questions, you can come to me... Well, I will say that you are a servant sent by the sponsor's family, working here, and you are responsible..."
"Just a bodyguard."
"Hey? Is it really okay?"
Looking at Duanmu Huai's thin arms and legs, the boss was somewhat surprised.
"Sir, do you really want to be a bodyguard?"
"Of course, don't look at me like this, I can fight very well."
