Chapter 58: Pillars Meeting
The moment Tamashi took the box and opened it, the expressions on her and Yushiro's faces experienced earth-shaking changes.
The originally calm face was torn apart by a strong emotion, as if there was an invisible force that passed through their blood and swept through their bodies in an instant.
That sadness, like the cold wind in late autumn, was poignant and biting, penetrating the hearts of Tamashii and Yushiro, making them feel unprecedented pain.
Jushi took a deep breath and tried to calm down her emotions.
"Is this the waxing moon?" Zhu Shi looked tentatively at the Butterfly Ninja, with a hint of anticipation and nervousness in his voice.
The Butterfly Ninja nodded, confirming Tamayo's guess.
After hearing the news, Zhu Shi's face finally showed a look of excitement.
The remains of the online moon will allow Zhushi to update and iterate drugs faster to improve efficacy and stability.
When the time comes, she will have the opportunity to create a powerful medicine that can deal with Muzan Kibutsuji.
"By the way, Miss Zhushi, do you have any pharmaceutical formulas or pharmaceutical materials that I can borrow? I've been very interested in pharmaceutical knowledge recently and want to learn more about it." Zai Zhushi was about to turn around and leave. During the new experiment, Lin Yi suddenly stopped her.
Hearing Lin Yi's request, Zhu Shi turned back to the house and carefully took down his own experience - a thick pharmaceutical notebook from the shelf.
This notebook records Zhu Shi's years of research results and experiences. Each page is densely filled with words and diagrams, embodying her wisdom and sweat.
After handing the notes to Lin Yi, Zhu Shi couldn't wait to walk into the pharmaceutical room with the new materials.
Her heart is full of expectations and passion for new experiments, and the experimental plans that have been conceived in her mind are waiting for her to realize them one by one.
The main people in charge of the conference hall where the Demon Slayer Squad is stationed have already taken their seats. Everyone's eyes glanced at the door from time to time, waiting for the return of Lin Yi and Hu Dieren.
The news that Waxing Moon had been killed was like a powerful whirlwind, instantly sweeping through the entire Demon Slayer Squad, pushing the emotions and fighting spirit of the team members to a new climax.
The members of the Demon Slayer Corps at the bottom have worked harder to train. They sweat profusely on the training ground and go all out to improve their strength.
"According to the news from Takuya, Oniitsuji Mumei seems to have made big moves." Ubuyashiki Yōya's voice echoed in the conference hall, clear and powerful.
"Several winding ghosts have appeared in the town again. It seems that Mr. Lin's actions have disturbed our ghost king."
Surprisingly, when these words echoed in the conference hall, the expressions on everyone's faces were not the expected shock or nervousness, but a hint of sneer.
They are well aware of the cunning and insidiousness of Onibatsuji Mumei. This ghost king who has always liked to hide behind the scenes and achieve his own goals by manipulating evil ghosts is now acting with such publicity. This is undoubtedly an extremely abnormal behavior.
What was revealed behind this abnormal behavior was the panic and uneasiness of Onimusuji Mumei.
Perhaps Onimusuji Mumei felt the threat from the Demon Slayer Squad and could no longer control the situation as calmly as in the past.
In the corner of the conference hall, Fengzhu Immortal Kawa Saneya stared closely at Suizhu Tomioka Giyu, with dissatisfaction shining in his eyes.
"Yiyong, I heard that you recently brought back a strange ghost on the territory of the waning moon. What do you think?"
Immortal Kawa Saneya's voice revealed blame and worry, his brows were furrowed, as if he was trying to suppress the anger in his heart.
In his opinion, Tomioka Yoshiyuki's behavior was undoubtedly a serious violation of the rules of the Demon Slayer Corps, and it was also irresponsible to the entire team.
Fortunately, he was stopped in time by other members of the Demon Slayer Corps. After their persuasion and comfort, he was able to suppress his anger until today's meeting.
When Tomioka Giyuu faced the question from Immortal Sakawa Saneya, he did not answer immediately. Instead, he took a deep breath and seemed to be organizing his words. He knew that his decision might cause some controversy and doubt, but he also firmly believed that he did it for the future of the Demon Slayer Corps.
"She is not an ordinary evil ghost. After my observation, Nezuko can restrain her nature and does not kill at will like other evil ghosts."
Tomioka Yoshiyuki tried to explain his decision. He knew that this decision was a bit risky for the Demon Slayer Squad, but he also believed in his own judgment.
However, other pillars have not experienced as many things with Tanjiro as Tomioka Giyu. They know little about the ghost that was brought back, so they have reservations about Tomioka Giyu's statement.
For a moment, the conference hall fell into silence.
Except for Tomioka Yoshiyuki, no one else expressed their opinions. Everyone was thinking and weighing.
At this moment, two figures appeared at the door of the conference hall—Lin Yi and Hu Dieren.
As soon as the two of them walked to the door, they felt the unusually depressing atmosphere inside.
The two sides looked at each other with some doubts in their hearts.
Lin Yi looked around and found that everyone's faces were full of solemnity and worry.
After sitting down, Yusui Tianyuan explained in detail what was discussed in the meeting to Lin Yi and Hu Dieren who had just arrived.
His words revealed worries about Tomioka Yoshiyuki's decision, as well as worries about Muzan Kibutsuji's big moves.
After listening to Yusui Tianyuan's explanation, Lin Yi said bluntly: "We will find out if we bring the two of them over and have a look. There is no use in discussing it here."
A smile appeared on Uyashiki Yaoya's face, and he nodded to express his agreement with Lin Yi's point of view.
In fact, Ubuyashiki Yōya also tends to do this in his heart. After all, there is a precedent for Yu Tamayo, and he does not have an attitude of killing ghosts on sight.
If Nezuko is really what Tomioka Giyuu said, then he is also willing to give Nezuko a chance.
Under the gaze of everyone, the tied Tanjiro and the box containing Nezuko were taken outside the conference hall.
Tanjiro was still in a state of ignorance at this time, and his eyes were a little confused, as if he was trying to recall his previous experiences, but he was unable to piece together the fragmented memories.
Wind Pillar Immortal Kawa Saneya took the lead to step forward, revealing his vigilance and hostility towards ghosts with every step he took.
He squatted down and knocked hard on the box containing Nezuko, as if he wanted to test the reaction inside the box.
There was a slight noise inside the box, as if something was moving gently.
Nezuko didn't show up immediately. She seemed to be hesitating and waiting, not knowing how to deal with this strange environment and people.
Looking at Tanjiro being pinned against the gravel, Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was truly an iron-headed boy. The stone was almost crushed to pieces by Tanjiro's iron head.
"Okay, let him loosen his bonds. There are so many people here, there is no need for everyone to be so nervous."
The blade in Snake Pillar's hand flashed, and the rope binding Tanjiro broke.
After regaining his mobility, Tanjiro immediately came to the box, held the box tightly in his arms, and comforted Yadouko inside the box.
