Demon Slayer: The Journey That Began When I Became Yoriichi's Sister

Chapter 524, wait a minute~

"Hmm?" Shinobu Kocho nodded silently, then suddenly looked up at Ikuko and belatedly murmured.

"W-what's wrong?" Yu Zi straightened up a bit, a sweet and harmless smile tugging at the corners of her mouth.

Shinobu Kocho frowned slightly and shook her head gently: "It's nothing."

Why does she feel like she's been tricked by Yuko?

"Yuko, you weren't just trying to avoid doing housework, were you?" Thinking this, Shinobu couldn't help but cast a questioning look at Yuko again.

Yu Zi broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly waved her hands, saying, "How, how could this be?"

"Look, my hand is still injured, isn't it?"

"Hmph~" Butterfly grunted, then glanced away quietly. At this moment, she understood perfectly well that she had been completely dominated by Yu Zi.

In other words, she accidentally poked Yuko's wound, and now she's suffering in silence, too embarrassed to say anything back.

Because Yuko injured her hand, Shinobu Kocho had already planned to take over the housework for the next few days.

But this situation inexplicably made her very unhappy.

"Sigh~" Yuko suddenly let out a long, delicate sigh.

"If Sister Ren is going to be like this, she might as well just ignore me. Otherwise, it will make me seem like I'm being unreasonable."

"If only I had known my hand would get injured..."

Seeing Yuko's strange and unsettling appearance, Shinobu Kocho felt a chill run down her spine. Gritting her teeth, she reached out and slapped Yuko's face with both hands, squeezing hard until Yuko's face was deformed.

"Shut up!"

Yuko blinked innocently, as if to say something.

Why are you angry again?

Butterfly, unable to contain her anger, viciously rubbed Yuko's face, thoroughly indulging in her revenge.

Just as Shinobu was kneading vigorously, Ikuko spat out her tongue, and a wet sensation came from her palm.

Shinobu Kocho withdrew her hand, exasperated, and fell silent as she looked at the saliva on her palm.

What should I do if I feel like punching her to death?

No, I can't hit Yuko too hard now.

"Ouch~" Yuko gently rubbed her cheek, her gaze lingering on Shinobu Kocho. "That hurts~"

"You feel pain now?" Shinobu rolled her eyes and wiped the drool from her palm in an annoyed manner.

Yuko was about to nod with a wronged look on her face when Shinobu Kocho continued, "Why would I pinch you if it didn't hurt?"

Ikuko:......

That makes sense.

"People's hearts are not what they used to be~" Yuko sighed, feeling a chill in her heart. She picked up the blanket from the corner, hugged it, looked at Shinobu Kocho with a wronged expression, lay back on the bed with her back to Shinobu, and curled up in a ball, huddled under the blanket.

Shinobu Kocho walked around to Yuuko's side expressionlessly. Yuuko seemed extremely aggrieved and refused to acknowledge her, turning over and turning her back to Shinobu.

Butterfly stopped to listen to the footsteps, and Yuko turned over again.

However, this time it failed, because Shinobu Kocho did not walk up to Ikuko, but instead stepped directly onto the blanket and straddled her.

Yu Zixin was startled. Why was this person not playing by the rules? He lowered his head and crawled into the quilt.

Shinobu Kocho expressionlessly threw back the covers, revealing a lonely and forlorn Ikuko.

"What? I want to sleep." Yu Zi curled up into a ball, hugging herself, looking aggrieved.

"I've noticed you really have a whole set of tricks up your sleeve," Shinobu Kocho said, narrowing her eyes.

It has to be said that although this idiot was just putting on an act, his pitiful appearance was surprisingly cute, making one want to bully him.

Yu Zi wasn't ashamed at being exposed; she just snorted and turned her head away, not wanting to see her.

A rustling sound came, and the weight on her body lightened. Yu Zi couldn't help but smile smugly.

But before she could be smug for long, the blanket behind her was pulled off, and Shinobu Kocho lay down next to her.

"What are you doing?! It's like I like it when you're next to me!" Yu Zi almost jumped up.

"Isn't that right?" Shinobu Kocho retorted first, then said speechlessly, "Stop it, Yuuko is giving me goosebumps."

Yuko rolled her eyes, her voice finally becoming much more serious: "It's all because Shinobu keeps bullying people."

"Yes, yes, it was my fault." Shinobu nodded obediently. "I'll be merciful and not hold it against you since you're injured."

"Won't I touch your hand if I sleep here?" Shinobu Kocho suddenly remembered.

Yuko looked speechless: "So, why did you even try to squeeze in?"

Shinobu's eyes widened in disbelief: "Does Yuuko not want to sleep with me?"

Seeing that Yu Zi was about to resume her affected posture, Yu Zi quickly interrupted, "No, you can lie down anywhere!"

Shinobu Kocho hummed twice and pulled the blanket up to cover herself.

"Eh~" At this moment, Shinobu Kocho suddenly let out a soft "Eh," which caught Ikuko's attention.

"what happened?"

Shinobu Kocho didn't say anything, but leaned closer to Ikuko and touched her all over.

Yuko blushed. It wasn't that she hadn't slept with Shinobu Kocho before, nor that she hadn't been groped by Shinobu Kocho. Over the years, the two had even done more outrageous things, but this sudden physical contact made her feel very embarrassed.

Yu Zi's body was slightly swaying, and she said in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, "Wait, wait a minute."

Let her adjust her mindset!

"What? Wait a minute?" Shinobu Kocho was taken aback. "I meant to say, Yuuko, why are you still so cold?"

Yu Zi was a beat slow to react, and when she realized what was happening, her teeth ached.

Oh my god, I forgot about that.

She forgot to adjust her body temperature to that of a normal person.

Yu Zi panicked. She was doomed; she was about to be exposed.

Although she was panicking inside, she maintained a calm demeanor and replied, "Yes, could it be because the human-transforming drug hasn't fully taken effect yet?"

Shinobu Kocho looked up at her speechlessly: "How could that be?"

"That's probably because my body is naturally cold," Yuko said calmly.

"Yes, that's true." Since there are people whose body temperature is lower than normal, Shinobu Kocho quickly accepted Ikuko's reason.

"Upon closer inspection, it is actually much higher than Yuko's previous body temperature, but for a human being, it will not affect daily life."

"That's good." Yu Zi smiled calmly.

Of course! Luckily, the weather isn't too hot yet, and her body temperature is only slightly cool, otherwise her "central air conditioning" persona would have been exposed.

What a risk!

Fearing that something else might go wrong, Yuko quickly pulled Shinobu's hand aside and patted the pillow: "Go to sleep, go to sleep. I'm a little sleepy. This is the first time in my life I've ever felt sleepy."

Shinobu Kocho couldn't help but remark, "This is the first time in my life... Ikuko wasn't born a demon, was she?"

"Huh? Didn't I already tell you? I was turned into a demon by Iwakatsu right after I was born."

Butterfly rolled her eyes at her, ignoring Yuko's eccentricities.

After much persuasion, the topic was changed, and Yu Zi breathed a sigh of relief, closing her eyes to go to sleep.

rustling~

Suddenly, I heard Shinobu Kocho's movements again, and I could feel her pressing against the bed and leaning towards me.

Yuko opened her eyes with a headache: "Shall we go to sleep...?"

She paused abruptly as Butterfly's warm breath touched her face, and her lips felt moist.

Shinobu Kocho hugged him tightly.

"Tolerate?"

Shinobu licked her lips, still savoring the moment: "Didn't Yuuko just say to wait a bit?"

"Huh?" Yuko blinked blankly.

Looks like I won't be able to go to bed early tonight.
