Is there nothing that can delay this monster for even one more second?

Anxious, annoyed, and praying, the prostitute Taro was slowly recovering from his injuries when a group of unexpected "friendly forces" appeared...

A group of government officials, or police, surrounded Bai Wujie who was walking slowly from the other side of Yoshiwara Street.

"Give it up, put your hands up!"

"Damn murderer, surround him quickly!"

Facing the angry crowd that surrounded him, Bai Wujie tilted his head slightly and grinned...

Look, the corpse is talking...

21. Brother and sister die together

After the younger one is beaten, the older one comes along. This is not something worth complaining about.

Because that's often how things are. When you bully something relatively weak in a group... then it's only natural to suffer retaliation from something stronger in the group.

"It's right there, don't even think about running away!!"

"Damn murderer, you are allowed to shoot him on the spot!!"

Just as Bai Wujie was walking towards Jifutaro step by step, a group of people wearing black hats and called police appeared in front of him.

Bai Wujie's pace showed no sign of slowing down, because he didn't see anyone he needed to care about, only a group of people blocking his way, incomprehensible roadblocks.

At this moment, a black-haired beauty in simple clothes suddenly rushed over from the side, stopped Bai Wujie, half-knelt down and begged...

"Please be merciful and let them go!"

Bai Wujie tilted his head. The female ninja in front of him seemed to be the wife of Uzui Tengen, and her name seemed to be Hinazuru.

"Now it seems that they want to kill me." Bai Wujie said with a smile

"I am a very reasonable person. If they don't block my way, I will treat them as if they don't exist... If they block my way and want to kill me, I will clear the obstacles."

Just as Bai Wujie himself said, he felt that he was a very reasonable person.

You see, he even explains to others what he wants to do.

Of course, it might also be because he was in a good mood tonight.

Hinazuru gritted her teeth, looked at the police who were jogging over from the other end of the street, and said to Bai Wujie hastily...

"We will handle these matters. The lord will help you solve the problem of being wanted. You just need to stay out of the spotlight for the time being..."

Bai Wujie just smiled and ignored her, just continued walking forward.

Why did he retreat? Was he the one who was unreasonable?

Is he the weak one?

Since neither of these are true, why should he accommodate a group of unreasonable and weak people?

Is it because of the so-called "life is priceless" and because these police officers have families waiting for them at home?

Wow, what a weird reason!

Who the hell is qualified to define whether life is valuable or priceless?

What's more, why should Bai Wujie care about what family members they have?

Bai Wujie continued forward without slowing down, and at this moment the police who had rushed over had surrounded him.

"Put your hands up, quick!!"

The loud shouts did not stop the vicious criminal from moving forward, so the police naturally opened fire...

The lagging Mauser G98 rifle, with a popping sound, carried a large number of bullets and hit Bai Wujie's body.

But to be more precise, these bullets didn't even get close to his body before being easily blocked by the force of the electric current.

Bai Wujie didn't even look at them, he just walked past...

The electric current field around him was like a shredder that crushed paper, instantly turning everyone within a radius of fifteen meters into charcoal.

Screams of pain were heard continuously, and the fragile flesh and blood body was easily carbonized and shattered under the rampant electric current.

“Gah! It hurts so much!!”

"Help, help, ah!!"

This can't even be called a massacre. It's like an elephant walking through an ant nest, just walking by.

"Run, run!"

Some policemen screamed and turned away, and Bai Wujie did not try to stop them from escaping.

Just like he said, he is a very reasonable person. The roadblocks blocking his way will roll away by themselves, and he will not be so bored as to chase them and deal with them specifically.

Young Crane in the distance looked at the charred corpses on the ground, his face turned pale and he trembled all over.

Angry? No, at this moment, there was only a strong fear, a strong fear of Bai Wujie... a man who was scarier than a ghost!

"I thought you were going to run away during the chaos."

Bai Wujie walked in front of Jifu Taro. Jifu Taro, who had recovered about half of his injuries, barely stood up and grinned...

"Escape? Will it work? Will you let me go?"

"Maybe." Bai Wujie said with a smile

"Maybe if you tell me a story that makes me happy, I'll let you go. For example, how about telling me how you became a ghost? After all, you look so ugly that you can't even have a chance to fight with others. You'll be worse off than death."

"Even if there's little hope, maybe your story will move me and I'll let you go. Just like I like your deep brother-sister relationship, I gave you so much time and even let you give one of your eyes to your sister."

Shiromujie was referring to the left eye of Jifutaro, an eye that had never been opened because he "gave" it to his sister Daki.

He only hoped that Daki could run farther and never come back!

As for the fact that losing an eye greatly reduces combat effectiveness?

Facing Bai Wujie, this matter itself has no meaning.

Since I have fought with all my strength and proved that I am powerless to fight back, what does it matter if I lose an eye?

"The story... I don't remember it anymore." Jifutaro said in a hoarse voice.

Although he could have made up a story to deceive Bai Wujie... he was just not good at this kind of thing. What's more, he didn't want to anger the moody person in front of him by lying.

A person who is purer than a ghost cannot be treated from the perspective of an ordinary person. Jifutaro understands that whether Daki can escape actually depends entirely on Shiromujie's thoughts.

"It's okay, just let me help you."

Bai Wujie slowly stretched out his hand and grabbed Jifu Taro's head. As the arc of electricity flashed in his palm, Jifu Taro let out an extremely sharp scream!

"Ahhh!"

The reason why these ghosts lost their memories when they turned into ghosts was purely the work of Muzan Kibutsuji himself.

The huge amount of information generated by cell mutations flushes the synapses of the brain's neurons, which in turn closes the long-term memories stored near the hippocampus, making it impossible for brain cells that record past memories to function normally.

Bai Wujie himself had used this little trick many times for fun... Although the force of the electric current would burn some brain cells, since he was a ghost, he was not afraid of the damage.

When Bai Wujie let go of his hand, the prostitute Taro, who was kneeling on the ground, screamed in pain... He didn't stand up again until the charred head was restored to its original shape.

But there was confusion in those eyes, and even deeper hatred.

"Ha, now your eyes look more powerful!" Bai Wujie said with a smile

"Come on, tell me your tragic story and cheer me up, how about that?"

"Does the misery of others give you such pleasure?"

The prostitute Taro said in a hoarse and disgusted voice

"There is a wise man whose name I don't remember once said that the core of comedy is tragedy, and the source of jokes is suffering... So tasting other people's tragic stories is equivalent to tasting the best jokes, which seems to be no problem." Bai Wujie smiled

"Of course, what's more important is that you don't let your ability to empathize affect you. I'm not a person who can't empathize at all.

But you have been wreaking havoc on the world for hundreds of years, why should I sympathize with you? I don't even sympathize with the victims you eat, so why should I sympathize with you?"

"Even compared to Lord Muzan, you look more like an evil spirit." Jifutaro laughed at himself.

Then he slowly began to tell his story.

A child born in a red-light district, the son of a cousin infected with syphilis, was born with horrible deformities and suffered contempt and bullying in this red-light district where people were judged by their appearance.

It was not until the birth of his mother's second child, the beautiful sister, that he stopped feeling self-pity and inferiority.

He was proud of his sister's beauty, and tried his best to ensure that his sister and himself could survive in this world. He began to face the world with an ugly attitude and become a hated debt collector.

The biggest dream for the rest of my life is to have my sister marry a good man and escape from this hell of love...

But one day when he came back from collecting a debt, he found his sister tied to a pillar and burned to death.

Just because he taught his sister that if she wanted to survive, she had to "hurt others before being hurt"... So his sister blinded the eyes of a warrior who tried to violate her, and then she was tied up and burned to death by the warrior.

The samurai tried to kill him, but he was killed in anger, along with the evil proprietress who was an accomplice.

Then, he walked in vain on the snow with his sister on his back, begging for help, but no one could help him, no one.

Until a ghost helped him, and then he also became a ghost.

"I hate them, I hate everyone who doesn't help us! I hate those samurai! I hate those nobles! I hate everyone who has made us happy!" Jifutaro growled in a very resentful tone.

"Give me one more chance, ten times, or even a hundred times, and I will become a ghost again! If you don't want others to take away your things, you have to take away their things first!"

"Well said!" Bai Wujie smiled and clapped.

"Your story makes me extremely happy, but I think you are still not cruel enough. If it were me, the samurai and the family of the boss lady, all the people who were paraded in the streets, and their families, would have no chance of survival."

"I don't hate other people's happiness, but I am a person who doesn't like to be suppressed. I will destroy things that make me unhappy and kill people who make me sad. Repaying evil with kindness? What a loud fart. Narrow-minded? Yes, that's right, because I am a person who doesn't like to endure, hahaha!"

Jifu Taro just looked at this man who was more extreme than the devil, and suddenly he also laughed wildly...

"Hehehe! It's so good that you're the one who killed me! Because if a devil like you stays in the world, more people will definitely lose their happiness!"

"I can't guarantee it, but I'm sure there will always be some random people who like to get in my way."

Bai Wujie grabbed Jifutaro's head and was about to attack when three sharp ribbons suddenly stabbed from the side!

The invisible electric current tore the iron-hard ribbon into pieces, and Dakimakami, who came back panting, looked miserable with missing arms and legs...

It seems that even if Jifutaro gave her an eye, this mentally handicapped child would still be no match for Uzui Tengen.

"Xiaomei, what did you do? Why don't you run?!" The prostitute Tailang shouted excitedly.

"We can't run away, brother. We can't escape anymore." Daji... no, Xiaomei looked at her brother sadly and said softly...

"Since I have to die in the end, Xiaomei also wants to die beside her brother..."

"Ah, touching brother-sister love! But seeing how miserable you look, I have a very strange guess."

Bai Wujie looked at the brother and sister and suddenly laughed...

"I'll give you ten seconds to reminisce about the past. The countdown will begin now."

The prostitute Taro gave Bai Wujie a thankful look, then hugged his sister tightly and whispered...

"Don't be afraid, Xiaomei, brother will be with you, no matter where you are..."

hum...

A dazzling electric current flashed, and Jifutaro's head was instantly shattered into nothingness. The power to shatter every cell tissue was enough to kill them even without the need for ultraviolet rays.

The moment Jifutaro's consciousness disappeared, Daki also shattered and disappeared.

"Ha, is that really the case?"

Bai Wujie raised his eyebrows in surprise

22. Death of the Third Upper Rank

In fact, there was no such thing as Daki from the very beginning.

In other words, from the moment he was turned into a ghost, there was only one ghost, Jifutaro.

The sister in Jifutaro's memory was tied to a pillar and burned for several hours, with her skin all over a charred black... It is basically impossible to save a 13-year-old child with such injuries.

In fact, she was dead too.

When he turned into a demon, the only one who received Muzan's blood was Jifutaro... After all, no matter how magical the demon's cells are, they do not have the function of bringing the dead back to life.
