Chapter 488 Looking at each other from afar
Because Yuko usually wears tight-fitting clothes, it's not easy to spot her.
When she slept with Yuko, she usually liked to use Yuko as a pillow to cuddle with while sleeping. This was the first time she had been this close to Yuko...
No, it's not the first time.
I had seen Ikuko's body before when I performed surgery on her with Tamayo, but her attention wasn't on it at the time.
For a moment, Shinobu's thoughts were in complete disarray.
……
strangeness……
Why has Ren's heart rate returned to normal?
They had already returned to the city. The summer festival was in its late hours, and there were far fewer pedestrians on the road. But carrying Shinobu Kocho like that would still affect those around him to some extent.
Considering that both of them had reached their limit of shamelessness, Yuko quietly put Shinobu down.
Yuko asked considerately, "Can you stand up straight?"
Butterfly silently stared at Yuuko's chest.
Yuko looked slightly confused and waved her hand in front of her eyes: "Ren? Are you alright?"
Could it be that the child has been driven to madness by the stress?
Yuko suddenly felt a little scared that Shinobu would chop her up with her Nichirin Blade later.
Shinobu took a deep breath and looked up with a smile: "It's okay."
Her words only made Yuko more flustered.
Look in the mirror and see where you look like nothing's wrong!
"Are you really alright?" Yu Zi asked, her voice trembling slightly.
"I told you it's nothing, okay, let's go." Shinobu, her mood completely changed, stepped forward happily, took Ikuko's hand, and pulled her forward.
The truth was too cruel, and Shinobu Kocho no longer wanted to recall it.
Okay, judging from their appearance, they don't seem like they'll settle scores later.
Yuko scratched her head and let Shinobu Kocho pull her away.
"It's so late, I wonder if my sisters have gone back yet." Shinobu Kocho looked around the street, where there were still quite a few pedestrians.
“Let’s go back first,” Yuko suggested. “We had already planned to have a get-together at Butterfly’s house after the summer festival.”
"If we get back late, and someone gets there before us, we'll just be standing there waiting to be seen."
I've already strolled through the temple fair, eaten all the food I wanted, done all the games I wanted, watched the procession of the deity, and enjoyed the fireworks. After walking around, there really wasn't much else to see.
"Yes, that's what I think too." Shinobu Kocho nodded slightly, agreeing with Ikuko's statement.
Their original plan was to go back after watching the fireworks, but considering that the people at home were probably having a secret rendezvous with someone else right now, it was uncertain whether they would even remember them.
After discussing it, the two of them turned a corner and headed towards Butterfly's house.
……
"Lord Tamayo, this is for you..."
In the distance, amidst the hustle and bustle of pedestrians, Yuko seemed to hear the voice of an acquaintance.
She couldn't help but stop and look back, her gaze passing through the gaps between the people on the road.
At a jewelry stall on the street, Yushiro was personally putting a hairpin on Tamayo.
Upon seeing this, Yu Zi couldn't help but smile.
You're quite capable, Yushiro. I underestimated you.
Having spent hundreds of years in hiding, Tamayo possessed a keen eye for sight. Furthermore, since Ikuko made no attempt to conceal herself, she seemed to notice something and turned around to look further into the crowd.
Soon they saw Yuko with a smile on her face in the distance.
Realizing what she and Yushiro had just done, Tamayo quickly looked away, appearing somewhat embarrassed.
By the time she realized what was happening and looked at Yuko again, she was already completely blocked by the figures of pedestrians.
"What's wrong, Lady Tamayo?" Seeing Tamayo gazing calmly into the distance, Yushiro assumed she didn't like the hairpin and quickly asked, "Is the hairpin uncomfortable to wear?"
The pedestrians started walking again, but Yuko's figure had already disappeared from the spot. Tamayo smiled and shook her head: "I like her very much. I just saw Yuko."
"Should we go over and say hello?" Yushiro wasn't surprised. He and Lady Tamayo had come here to participate in the summer festival at the invitation of Ikuko.
Otherwise, why would they come all the way to Ikuko for events that are already available in Asakusa?
If it weren't for Yuko's invitation, they would have been staying home and being couch potatoes during the summer festival.
“No need.” Tamayo gently shook her head, a gentle smile on her face. “I had a great time tonight. Let’s go back, Yushiro.”
She was content to see Yuko living a normal life.
"Yes, Lady Tamayo."
……
"Yuko, what are you looking at?" Shinobu Kocho, who had been walking and realized that Yuko was lost, turned around and found Yuko staring blankly behind her.
She looked in the direction Yuko was looking, but found nothing.
"It's nothing, let's go back." Yuko didn't bother to say goodbye to Tamayo.
Tamayo never liked crowds, and she especially disliked contact with humans.
Her contact with humans was limited to obtaining blood from them to sustain her body.
Yuko's invitation to Tamayo didn't actually receive a response, and she was starting to think that Tamayo wouldn't come.
Did they sneak in?
Ikuko and Tamayo are the type who know each other very well.
She understood Tamayo's thoughts.
I guess I just wanted to see how my friend was doing.
Disrupting her life? That's unnecessary.
It's not that I feel I can't get along with Yu Zi anymore, but rather that I can't fit into Yu Zi's current circle.
Look at the kind of people Yuko has as friends now.
Demon Slayer Corps!
Who are they?
It's a ghost!
Just kidding, it has nothing to do with this.
If Tamayo is the type who longs to interact with humans but is too shy to do so, then Ikuko would insist on dragging her over no matter what.
However, Tamayo dislikes crowds, and her contact with the Demon Slayer Corps is limited to Ubuyashiki and Shinobu Kocho; she has little contact with the other Pillars.
Ikuko naturally couldn't forcibly bring Tamayo here.
There's a saying that goes, "My friend's friend is not my friend."
Like Tamayo, seeing their friends happy is enough for them.
Moreover, she felt that Tamayo must have had a lot of fun tonight.
……
Yu Zi, who had been all smiles like an aunt, belatedly realized what was happening and her expression froze.
Oh no, I should have gone up and asked about the development of the human transformation medicine.
Yu Zi slapped her forehead; how could she have forgotten about that?
Forget it, with Shinobu around, it's not appropriate to ask even if we meet. I'll just secretly write to Tamayo and ask her later.
She hadn't explained this matter, which was still far from being settled, to Shinobu Kocho, planning to give her a surprise later.
"Really?" Shinobu Kocho looked at Ikuko with a strange expression as she slapped herself, without asking any further questions.
After all, Yuuko's thought process is sometimes comparable to that of those two idiots, Inosuke and Zenitsu.
