I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

Kino was also very puzzled when she heard her father's explanation. As far as she knew, her father was one of the top officers in the Metropolitan Police Department and was usually able to solve any murder case he was assigned to in a short time. But now, for some unknown reason, the higher-ups in the Metropolitan Police Department had suddenly assigned someone else to investigate the case, which was as if they were stealing credit from her father.

However, out of understanding, the girl Kino didn't bring up those things again, but instead spoke to her father:

"Dinner will be ready soon, Dad. You can just sit on the sofa for a while."

Hearing his daughter's words, Officer Kino nodded, threw his coat on the sofa, and turned on the TV. He then saw the news about the murder case in the abandoned factory. Upon seeing this, Officer Kino wanted to immediately go back to the Metropolitan Police Department, but when he saw several very familiar men in black, he immediately slumped down like a deflated balloon. Clearly... these were the guys from the Special Investigation Team. Were they also handling other murder cases?

Thinking about all this, Officer Kino couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. After all, those people were interfering and even excluded the police from those cases, which made him furious. But what was the use?

With a sigh, Officer Kino slumped onto the sofa in a relaxed, reclining position, watching the news on TV. Only after the girl, Kino, had prepared the meal did Officer Kino sit down at the table to eat. While eating, the girl took out her phone to check the video she had posted on social media—the one showing the scene of the Diablos battle on the main street. However, when she opened the video social media app, she discovered her video had been deleted because it didn't comply with the platform's rules.

Upon seeing this, Kino Girl couldn't help but swear.

"Japanese profanity!"

Upon hearing his daughter swear, Officer Kino stared at her, a smug look on his face. With some vegetable still clinging to his lips, he swallowed it and then spoke to his daughter:

"Wait, why is a girl suddenly swearing???"

Upon hearing her father's words, Kino realized that her father was home. She then scratched the back of her head sheepishly and said:

"Haha, sorry, sorry, the platform deleted my video for no reason, and I just blurted out some profanities without thinking..."

Officer Kino looked puzzled after hearing his daughter's words. Although he didn't have much time to spend with his daughter, he knew she wasn't the type to swear easily. Clearly, something had upset her.

"Video? What video? It's not some random, inappropriate video, is it?"

Upon hearing her father's words, Kino quickly waved her hand to indicate that she hadn't said anything.

"No, no, of course it's not some random video. It's just a super exciting video I filmed on the street."

Officer Kino, hearing his children's words, looked on with curiosity and said:

"What kind of exciting video?"

As he spoke, Officer Kino took a sip of water. Then, when he saw the video of the Diablos fighting that his daughter had taken out, Officer Kino couldn't help but spit out the water in his mouth. Obviously, the scene of the Diablos fighting was the same one he had seen online before. However, the video on his daughter's phone was much clearer, and the camera was very stable. The scene of the two Diablos fighting in the video could be seen very clearly.

Seeing this, Officer Kino looked at his daughter and said:

"Wait, you were there? Wasn't it noon? How did you get out of the school?"

Hearing her father's words, Kino looked at him with a puzzled expression and said:

"Huh? Didn't the school send a message to Dad? All the students in our school building fainted. Only those of us who were having PE outside the building were okay. Because of this, the school dismissed us early and temporarily closed the school for an investigation."

Upon hearing his daughter's words, Officer Kino was shocked. An entire school building of students had suddenly fainted, so why hadn't he received a report?

Officer Kino contacted the Metropolitan Police Department and was told that they had received orders from the Special Investigation Team to take away all the case details and keep them confidential.

Hearing this, Officer Kino couldn't help but feel a little strange. What exactly were those special investigation teams looking for?

Chapter 1195 [Showing Demon Slayer to Muzan Kibutsuji]

Seeing her father's strange expression, Kino looked at him and asked:

"Dad, what's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Hearing his daughter's words, Officer Kino snapped out of his reverie and spoke to his children:

"It's nothing. Just be careful lately. Don't go out at night. If you do go out, it's best to bring a friend. Things haven't been very peaceful lately, so don't get involved in anything unusual."

After hearing her father's words, Kino nodded without arguing and said:

"Yes, I understand, Dad. I really understand these principles."

Officer Kino nodded in agreement with his daughter's words and said:

"It's good to know."

After saying that, Officer Kino also focused on eating. Seeing that her father didn't say anything, the girl Kino also didn't say anything and focused on eating.

After finishing her meal, Kino ran to her room after doing her chores. After taking a shower, she jumped onto her bed in her pajamas. Once on the bed, she skillfully took out her laptop and started searching for information about the sudden appearance of a horned dinosaur on the street. Unfortunately, she couldn't find any related videos.

It's clear that the relevant authorities have blocked information about Diablos; currently, Kino Girl can only see Diablos game data.

"As expected, there's no relevant content. It seems to have been blocked."

After failing to find what she was looking for, Kino Girl changed her search terms. This time, she searched for news about what happened on the street that day and found news about a gas explosion under the road causing hallucinations in many people.

Upon seeing this news, Kino Girl couldn't help but twitch her lips and said:

"This isn't Fuyuki City, and the Holy Grail War isn't being held here. Why would they use such an outrageous lie...?"

If it weren't for the video on my phone and the thing I found on the ground, I might have had some doubts.

Thinking of the thing she had found earlier, Kino couldn't help but recall that it was still in her schoolbag. With that in mind, she picked up her schoolbag and started searching. Soon, she found a spiky scale that looked like a black feather. Looking at the black scale in her hand, she put it under her nose and took a sniff.

"Ah~ this smells so good~"

Smelling the numbing (neurotoxin) fragrance emanating from the black spiky scales, Kino sighed. She had found these black spiky scales while chasing the strange guy wearing the Melu cat headgear. At first, she thought they were just ordinary crow feathers, but when she saw the feather-like thing stuck in the cement floor, she knew it wasn't an ordinary feather.

The texture of the material felt like reptile scales, and it was extremely hard with sharp spikes on the edges that could even pierce cement. This made the girl, Kino, wonder if it was a Nargacuga scale, since the scales left in the Nargacuga animation CG she saw in Monster Hunter World were somewhat similar to this.

So, the girl with the thorn scale opened the Monster Hunter World game to check it out. Soon, she found the animated CG about Nargacuga in the gallery. In the animated CG, she saw that Nargacuga's thorn scale was very similar to the one in her hand, but there were still some differences in shape and size.

"Hmm...it looks similar, but there are some slight differences..."

As she spoke, the girl from Kino adopted an indifferent expression and gesture, saying:

"But it doesn't matter. Let Naruko take a look. She should know something."

Thinking this way, Kino also planned to go and ask her classmate for a look tomorrow. After all, her classmate kept a lot of reptiles, so he should be able to tell what it was. Of course, if he couldn't tell, then it would be certain that this thing was not from Earth.

.................................................. ..................

That evening, in an apartment building, on the other side of a door bearing the surname "Da Tian," a man with a black, seaweed-like hairstyle parted in the middle and red eyes was typing furiously on a keyboard. His beast-like vertical pupils clearly indicated that he was not human.

He learned about the internet from this guy named Ota. According to Ota, the internet was like a library containing all the books in the world, and you could find the knowledge you wanted just by moving your fingers.

This surprised him greatly; it was far better than his useless subordinates. He never expected that such a convenient thing would exist in the world 100 years later.

He searched for information about blue spider lilies on Google, but unfortunately, there was no such thing as a blue spider lily in this world, which made him unhappy. He obviously did not find what he was looking for.

However, he didn't find the blue spider lily, but he did find some information about it. He slowly clicked on the encyclopedia entry and saw that it said, "Blue spider lily is a term from the manga Demon Slayer. It was the last ingredient that the kind doctor used to cure Muzan two years ago."

Upon seeing this, he stared at the encyclopedia entry in disbelief. Wasn't the "Muzan" mentioned here referring to Kibutsuji Muzan himself?!

Upon witnessing this scene, Muzan Kibutsuji clenched his fists tightly. Why would people know about his search for the Blue Spider Lily? Could it be that the traitor, Yuuju, leaked the information?

Then Muzan Kibutsuji suddenly remembered what the girl in the military uniform had said.

"Muzan Kibutsuji, you will become one of the cornerstones of chaos in the main world. A clown like you will surely bring enough highlights to my [script]."

As he spoke, Muzan Kibutsuji also saw a blinding white light, and then he found himself in a world 100 years after the Taisho era.

However, Muzan Kibutsuji was also curious about the thing called Demon Slayer, so he looked up some information about it. But after reading the information about Demon Slayer, Muzan Kibutsuji's face turned ashen, and then he roared and punched the computer screen in front of him through it!

Chapter 1196 [Kurumi Tokisaki: This time you're the prey, Mr. Prey]

With gritted teeth and a livid expression, Muzan Kibutsuji stared at the computer screen he had smashed, which he had smashed open. A surge of anger welled up within him; he had actually been killed by those useless Demon Slayer Corps members. What were the Upper and Lower Moons good for? And the Blue Spider Lily only bloomed during the day; no wonder he hadn't found it in over a thousand years.

Although the thought of finding the Blue Spider Lily made Muzan Kibutsuji happy, he also thought that those useless people hadn't found any trace of it in a thousand years. They were a complete waste of his blood, failing to find something that only required inquiries. Moreover, those humans were utterly useless. Although he had instructed some humans to search for information about the Blue Spider Lily, he guessed that they weren't really looking for it seriously.

Once I get back, I'll immediately kill all those useless trash.

No, I'll wait until I find the Blue Spider Lily before killing those useless people. After all, once I find the Blue Spider Lily and remove my last flaw, those useless people will be worthless.

If there's really no way to find it, then you'll just have to wait until Nezuko overcomes the sunlight, as recorded in the encyclopedia, before you can devour the other party. That way, you can also overcome the threat of sunlight.

At that time, no Demon Slayer Corps will be able to do anything to him, and in the end, he will rule the world!

The thought of that scene brought a slight smile to Muzan Kibutsuji's face, but his expression quickly turned sour. He knew he had to return to his original world to carry out his plans. Here, he couldn't do anything about it.

First, he had to find the girl in the military uniform who brought him to this world. Although he was teleported to this world, Muzan Kibutsuji felt that the only one who could send him back home was that girl in the military uniform.

Although he didn't know where to find the other party, Muzan Kibutsuji was afraid that his whereabouts would be exposed. If he were discovered, the planes, cannons, and tanks he had seen online would come rushing towards him. Although he was not afraid of anything except the Breath of the Sun and the sun, the flamethrowers, incendiary bombs, and even nuclear bombs he had seen online still made Muzan Kibutsuji feel scared. If he pushed humanity too far, those things might be thrown at his head, and he might be doomed.

Muzan Kibutsuji couldn't guarantee he'd survive being hit by an incendiary bomb. Although he had strong healing abilities, he couldn't help but feel afraid—what if those things had an effect on him?

In addition to those weapons, Muzan Kibutsuji was also somewhat worried about the biological weapons humans used. What if those biological weapons were to have an effect on him?

To be honest, Muzan Kibutsuji didn't know why humans always came up with novel ideas when killing their own kind. Such imagination made Muzan Kibutsuji unsure how to evaluate humans. But anyway, he had to find a way to develop here first, preferably by mimicking a high-ranking person. This would make it easier for him to act and control a large number of humans to act for him.

Thinking this way, Muzan Kibutsuji adjusted his mindset. In any case, he should eat something first. The taste of the humans in this era was slightly worse than what he had eaten before, but there were still quite a few delicious ones like the young lady. Because of the era, many humans were not as poor as the Taisho era. Many humans seemed to be well-fed, which meant that Muzan Kibutsuji didn't have to be too picky about food.

However, the guy named Ōta that he ate earlier didn't taste very good. After mimicking Ōta's appearance, Kibutsuji Muzan went out to find food.

.................................................. ..................

Although it was almost midnight, the streets were still brightly lit. To be honest, Muzan Kibutsuji didn't like this kind of environment, as it was not conducive to his clandestine feeding activities. However, for this reason, there were many more people out and about at night than before, which saved him a lot of trouble.

After walking for a while, Muzan Kibutsuji soon found a very good prey. Not far away, Muzan Kibutsuji saw a black-haired girl with twin tails wearing a school uniform feeding some stray cats. Upon seeing this, Muzan Kibutsuji couldn't help but show an expression as if he had spotted prey. Clearly, the girl in front of him was very much in line with his choice.

Soon, Muzan Kibutsuji saw the girl wave goodbye to the stray cats after putting out the cat food. After she left, Muzan Kibutsuji followed her. He then noticed that she seemed to be heading towards a relatively secluded location. Muzan Kibutsuji was a little puzzled by this, but he remembered that there were houses for lodging in that area, so he didn't suspect anything too much.

After Muzan Kibutsuji saw the girl walk into a small alley, he couldn't help but show a knowing look on his face. Isn't it great that the prey can walk into the hunting ground on its own?

Thinking this, Muzan Kibutsuji followed. As they walked deeper into the alley, Muzan suddenly saw the girl leaning against the wall, as if waiting for him. Seeing this, Muzan looked somewhat surprised and said:

"Oh dear, so you found out. When did you realize I was following you?"

Upon hearing Muzan Kibutsuji's question, the girl in front of him smiled slightly, stood up from the wall, and said to Muzan:

"I noticed you from the very beginning~"

The girl lifted the cover over her left eye, which resembled a clock, and looked at Muzan Kibutsuji, saying:

"After all, that lingering scent you carry is quite alluring to me, Mr. Prey~"

Upon seeing the girl's inhuman eyes and the murderous aura emanating from her body, Muzan Kibutsuji realized that the person in front of him was just like him—a monster.

As a black and red spiritual energy enveloped the girl, a black and red gothic dress appeared on her body, and her long, flowing twin tails were transformed into traditional twin tails. If Yuhaka were here, he would immediately point out that the other person was the bad guy who had scared him. That's right, it was Tokisaki Kurumi.

Clearly, Tokisaki Kurumi has her sights set on the vast amount of time contained within Kibutsuji Muzan this time.

"Although it doesn't have as much time as that little guy, I'm not picky about food. Zafkiel - First Bullet!"

With a giant clock visible behind her, Kurumi Tokisaki pointed a pistol at her head and pulled the trigger, saying this.

Volume 1 [Lazy to Divide into Chapters]: Chapter 1197 [Kurumi Tokisaki's Doubts]

In a small alley, Kurumi Tokisaki, holding a long and a short flintlock pistol, stared silently at the pieces of mangled flesh on the ground. From the shadows beside her, a clone of Kurumi Tokisaki emerged and spoke to her:

"That guy got away, and we couldn't catch him. To escape, he even dared to crawl into filthy sewers and drains. We couldn't possibly crawl into such narrow places."

Hearing her clone's words, Kurumi Tokisaki looked troubled and said:

"Hmm... Are all those monsters that can live this long lately so good at escaping?"
