Thinking there was something wrong with his body, Muzan quickly checked himself over.
Unfortunately, in the end, he couldn't find anything wrong with the examination.
Ultimately, it can only be attributed to my own intuition being wrong.
Meanwhile, the Scribe was strolling around inside the building.
Asatsuru was tidying up her room, and Gyutaro had gone to inspect it. As for Tamayo, she had almost finished tidying up her room as well.
For a moment, he didn't know what he should do.
As he passed a house, he suddenly became certain.
Looking at the sign above, the Scribe knew that this was a laboratory for researching medicinal herbs.
Directly below the sign, there are a few words.
Person in charge: Shiragiku.
Clearly, this was in the responsibility of Gyutaro's sister.
"Oh right, I haven't gone to see Koume yet."
With a sudden realization, the Scribe walked to the door and gently knocked.
"Please come in, there's no lock."
"Sorry to bother you."
Pushing open the door, Scribe immediately saw a slender figure.
She had long white hair, wore a white long shirt, and her socks just past her knees.
Although we can't see the face yet, we can imagine that it must be the face of a beautiful woman.
Unfortunately, the cold aura emanating from the other party made most people unwilling to approach.
"Just leave the items aside; I'll have them tested when I have time."
After saying that coldly, she continued with her research.
"When you go out, make sure to close the door behind you."
However, the door did not close as she expected.
"Didn't I tell you to close the door properly!"
With a furrowed brow, Shiragiku turned to look at them, her tone full of tension.
However, when she saw the man standing at the door, the anger on her face vanished instantly.
"Scribe... Mister Scribe!"
Somewhat disbelieving, Shiragiku rubbed her eyes to make sure she wasn't seeing things.
"Mister Scribe, I miss you so much!"
With a joyful expression on her face, Shiragiku put down her work.
With a leap, he jumped into the Scribe's arms.
At the same time, her body changed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In just one second, Shiragiku transformed from a cold and aloof female researcher with long legs into a petite and adorable girl.
Leaping into the Scribe's arms, Shiragiku nuzzled against him with her little head, a satisfied expression on her face.
Greedily absorbing the aura emanating from Scribe, she said to Scribe with delight.
"Sir, when did you get back? Why didn't you tell me? I could have come to pick you up."
Hearing the siblings' similar words, the Scribe shook his head helplessly and said...
"I just got back, not long ago."
After chatting with Koume for a while, Scribe learned about Koume and Gyutaro's situation during his absence.
Needless to say, Gyutaro was still in charge of security for the entire pharmaceutical company.
Koume herself became the chief researcher in charge of drug research.
Of course, this is only his public identity.
Behind the scenes, Koume also researches toxins that can effectively kill ghosts and tries to combine them with Wisteria.
After telling Koume about what had happened to him recently, Scribe immediately asked a question.
"What kind of tests did you just mention?"
The Scribe couldn't understand why something needed to be brought over and given to Koume for personal testing.
Koume immediately pouted when the topic came up.
Judging from her expression, she seemed somewhat unwilling.
"It's the Mister Scribe. Your friend asked me to help with the testing."
Upon hearing this, the Scribe became puzzled.
"My friend?"
Chapter 356 The Kocho Sisters Reunite
Upon hearing Shiragiku's words, Scribe's first reaction was that the other party had mistaken someone for her friend.
But then he thought again that the possibility of this happening was extremely low.
After all, Shiragiku was innocent and adorable when she was with the others.
But in reality, she wasn't some clueless naive girl.
As someone who has been with me for so long, it's impossible that I can't even tell if someone is a friend or not.
Moreover, since she said someone was going to deliver it, it means that the other party can operate within Tsukishiki Pharmaceuticals.
The security Gyutaro, should be aware of this.
If it were truly a counterfeit, I should have been told that from the very beginning.
Moreover, Tamayo had never mentioned anything like that to him.
For a moment, Scribe couldn't figure out who Shiragiku meant as her friend.
"Oh, right, they were two friends."
"Two?"
Growing increasingly confused, Scribe frowned and continued to ponder.
Shiragiku glanced at Scribe, who was deep in thought, and said nothing, simply lying quietly in his arms.
After a while, she noticed that Scribe suddenly smiled.
"Mister Scribe, have you figured it out yet?"
"Certainly."
Scribe patted Shiragiku's head and began to explain.
"It takes two people to get in here, especially since it's related to medicine."
At this point, the Scribe held up two fingers.
"I think it must be two girls."
"You got it right!"
With a cheer, Shiragiku hugged Scribe's neck and said happily.
' The Mister Scribe very clever; my brother probably won't be able to guess it.'
If Gyutaro hears you say that, he will be heartbroken.
Koume shook her head and replied.
"Brother won't."
"If it were someone else, he might get angry."
"But the Mister Scribe, he will never."
Shiragiku suddenly stopped talking at this point.
"Mister Scribe, there is something I would like to discuss with you."
"What is it? Tell me."
Looking at Koume, Scribe realized that this seemed to be one of the rare times she discussed things with him.
The last time this happened was thirty or fifty years ago.
"I will do anything I can for you."
"When you leave this time, can you take me with you?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Koume quickly waved her little hand and explained.
'It's not that I don't like it here, it's just that I've been here for a while and want to go out and see the world.'
After she finished speaking, she added in a voice only she could hear.
"Besides, Koume hasn't seen Mr. for a long time and doesn't want to be separated so soon."
Scribe originally wanted to refuse Koume's request.
After all, he had just made an agreement with Asatsuru that she would study under Koume for a period of time.
But then I realized that Asatsuru wouldn't be able to keep up with Koume's pace in such a short time.
It wouldn't be a bad idea to let her learn some basic knowledge during this time, and to take Koume out for a stroll.
Considering that Koume hadn't really gone out much for so long, Scribe agreed to her request.
"Okay, I agree."
Shiragiku was initially surprised to see Scribe agree so easily, but then she realized what was going on.
She stretched out her rosy little mouth and gave Scribe a big kiss on the cheek.
"Thank you, Mister Scribe, Koume likes you the most!"
Faced with Koume's "surprise attack," Scribe simply laughed it off.
In this form, Koume's behavior is undoubtedly closer to that of a child.
He could understand some of the things they did.
Whether the other party did it intentionally or unintentionally, the Scribe had no idea.
"I'm going to tell my brother this good news."
As she spoke, Koume tried to run out.
However, just as she reached the door, she heard footsteps outside.
After mentally estimating the time, Koume, who had been all smiles, suddenly froze.
"Those two guys are here."
Noticing Koume's change, Scribe glanced in the direction of the door.
From the very beginning, he noticed that Koume didn't feel any closeness to the "friends" she mentioned.
It could even be said that Koume would not have been willing to mention their existence if they weren't in front of her.
That hidden sense of disgust was still noticed by myself.
At the same time that Koume heard footsteps, Scribe also heard conversation.
The instant he heard those two voices, he knew that his guess was correct.
Not only that, he also understood why Koume hated those two people from the bottom of her heart.
After all, it's practically impossible for Koume, who has already become a demon, to fall in love with two Demon Slayer.
Soon, the footsteps outside became clearer.
