Chapter 60: Tanjiro Meets Again

Tokyo, Asakusa Prefecture.

It has been the political and economic center of the country for hundreds of years, and in the modern era, the Tokyo metropolitan area, which includes the Tokyo metropolitan area, the Tama area, and the island department, is one of the most famous and prosperous metropolitan areas in the world.

At the time of Ryuxia, the population of the Tokyo metropolitan area even reached more than 30 million, concentrating nearly one-third of the country's population, and the degree of prosperity can be imagined.

Although Tokyo is still far from being as prosperous as it was a few decades later, it is still the center of the country in this era, and it is very different from the rural areas where the old lifestyle is still retained.

Street lights, electric wires, trains, and other equipment have begun to spread throughout the city, giving the city the prototype of prosperity decades later, and it is very different from the villages and towns that Ryuxia passed by before.

Asakusa Prefecture is a very inconspicuous area in this metropolitan area.

Under the darkness of the night.

Street lamps on both sides of the concrete road have been lit up to illuminate the road beneath the feet of pedestrians, and occasionally the glow of lanterns raised by roadside shops has made the whole city glow bright yellow in the night.

Even at night, there is still an endless stream of pedestrians on the road, men and women wearing Japanese feather weaving and coats, as well as dresses and long skirts imported from the West, coming and going in the night, talking and laughing.

Occasionally, there are even a few cable cars and private cars passing through, which further decorates the bustling city.

Carrying a suitcase and carrying a nearly one-person-tall piano case behind her back, Ryuxia walked down the road of the city at night.

Ryuxia, who has great insight, keenly notices the difference between this era and decades later.

Decades later, in 1995, people walked down the road with little conversation, most of them silent, with the numbness and mechanics of subservience to society on their faces, most of them dressed in the same suits and leather shoes, and carrying briefcases in their hands.

But this era is different, people walk on the road, there is no strangeness and dead silence between each other after decades, it is natural to talk to each other, and everyone exudes extraordinary vitality.

"With the different times, the way of human existence is also changing."

Ryusha walked through the crowd while observing the human phenomena of this era, "Compared to the indifferent era a few decades later, this era is more lovely." ”

Modern society is very convenient.

But it is precisely because of convenience that people become empty.

More and more technology has created a lot of convenience, but at the same time, it has also robbed human beings of their obligations, resulting in the general loss of material busyness, making their hearts empty at the same time, and also losing a lot of ways to realize their self-worth.

"The more time we go back to the past, when human obligations are not taken away by machines, and when life is full, human beings will not become numb and indifferent."

Through the comparison of the times, Lu Xia realized a new law.

It's not a truth, it's just a law.

It's already night, and Ryuxia, who has been on the road for a long time, plans to find a ramen shop first and fill her stomach.

“…… Ryuxia sauce ......"

A vague shout came from behind him, attracting Ryuxia's attention, causing him to turn his head and look back.

Then, unexpectedly, he saw an acquaintance.

Wearing the same ghost slayer uniform as Ryuxia, with a green plaid coat on the outside, a young man with dark red hair and a scar on his forehead, was standing in the crowd dozens of steps away, waving happily to Ryuxia.

"Tanjiro Kamado?"

Lu Xia raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't expect to see this young man with a too good personality here.

Compared with more than half a month ago, there was almost no change on his body, except for wearing an extra ghost slayer uniform, and the knife on his waist was replaced, only the scar on his forehead had become much deeper.

It's not a recent scar, why did the color suddenly turn black? The whole looks like an alternative pattern......

"Ryuka-chan, did you also come to Asakusa Mansion to complete your mission?"

When Ryuxia was slightly surprised, Tanjiro Kamado had already crossed the crowd and came to Ryuxia's face, greeting Ryuxia, the smile on his face as sincere as ever.

"That's right."

Ryuxia nodded, although it was no longer necessary, he still maintained his personality.

But then, his gaze turned to a young girl behind Tanjiro.

He looks no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, with waist-length smooth black hair, delicate and lovely facial features, a slight hint of ignorance in his pink pupils, and the skin on his cheeks is unusually fair, without a trace of flaws.

He wears a pink kimono with a black haori on the outside, and a turquoise bamboo tube bites into his mouth, which shakes slightly with the wriggling of his mouth.

If you just look at her appearance, there is no doubt that she is an excellent Japanese beauty.

But Ryuxia, who has seen more than a dozen evil ghosts so far, can say with great certainty that this is a ghost.

Although she didn't have the rancid smell of ordinary demons, and there was not the slightest smell on her body, her sense of strangeness as a ghost was clear, enough for any Demon Slayer swordsman with experience in facing ghosts to distinguish her identity.

And what is surprising is that she and Tanjiro are holding hands in hand, and their demeanor is very intimate.

The two of them seemed to trust each other very much, and Tanjiro wasn't worried at all that she would suddenly burst out and bite him, and the girl ghost didn't seem to want to bite him.

The girl just stood there, turning her head to the flutter of the moth that pounced on the streetlight, making her supple black hair sway slightly, and her pink eyes were staring at the moth intently, very attentively.

"Who is she?"

Ryusha looked at her with a look of obvious interest in her eyes.

If he hadn't known Tanjiro's character, he would have begun to wonder if Tanjiro had mastered some method of controlling evil spirits, and controlling a beautiful girl ghost on the way was a little fun on a boring journey.

In all fairness, if it were Ryuxia, he would have such a plan.

Although he has no feelings, he is also a human being, and he also has physiological needs, and he will also desire the opposite sex, but because the secondary sexual characteristics have not yet developed much, he has not yet developed this kind of thought.

When he is two or three years older and has that ability and impulsivity, he may play like Tanjiro, and maybe even play better than him because of his uninhibited personality.
