Demon Slayer Corps Headquarters.
When Teiichi arrived, Kanae was waiting for him at the door.
When she saw Teiichi rushing over, Kanae went to greet him anxiously.
"You... really did that this time?"
"Yes!" Teiichi nodded slightly, her tone firm.
"Why?"
"Those two guys have been killing people for ghosts all these years, and they even keep women locked up in their basements as sex slaves!"
Kanae frowned slightly. "Even if they deserved to die, you shouldn't have killed them! You could have just handed them over to the police!"
Teiichi shook his head. "No, they have connections in the government. If they get arrested, they'll probably be released soon."
"This... this..."
Teiichi smiled gently, "Don't worry, I'm fine!"
"How can you still laugh? Don't you know that your behavior is a serious violation of the team rules? You might have to commit seppuku to atone for this!" Kanae said anxiously, her eyes gleaming.
"This means they didn't directly force me to commit seppuku! Since they brought me here to talk, it means at least the leader isn't inclined to make me commit seppuku!" Teiichi said, then looked at Kanae and asked in the eye:
"Moreover, I care more about Kanae opinion than anyone else's. What do you think of my behavior?"
Through Teiichi's eyes, Kanae seemed to see Teiichi worry, and so she asked:
Are you worried that I'm too gentle and won't be able to accept your behavior?
Teiichi moment, then nodded.
"Everyone thinks that way! But I'm just gentle in my approach to things, not that I don't know how to do things! I still kill demons, don't I?" Kanae paused, their eyes met, and then she continued:
"Besides, didn't you tell me yourself? Some people are worse than ghosts!"
Hearing Kanae's words, Ichiichi breathed Teiichi sigh of relief; it was best that Kanae had no objections.
"However, just because I understand doesn't mean I completely accept your approach!"
I also think that using people as bait is a bit too radical. Although I know you're looking for ghosts, I still hope you can try to use other, gentler methods in the future!
After saying that, without Teiichi reply, Kanae asked a question, her voice trembling slightly.
"Let's not talk about that now! What if the team forces you to commit seppuku this time?"
Teiichi smiled, raised a hand and gently wiped away Kanae's tears.
"If it really comes to that, I can only say I'm sorry. I may not have the same level of resolve as you. If I really had to commit seppuku, I might choose to leave the team."
Upon hearing this, Kanae breathed a sigh of relief.
She values Demon Slayer Corps highly, but she values her family even more than the Demon Slayer Corps.
Now, Teiichi is second only to Ren in her heart.
She values Demon Slayer Corps highly, and is even willing to die for them and for the sake of slaying Demon Slayer Corps.
But she doesn't want her family to end up like her.
Teiichi removed his hand from Kanae's face.
"Let's go inside! You'd better not say too much for me later, because if I really do commit seppuku and I don't, it'll be very awkward for you in the team afterwards!"
"But..."
Teiichi interrupted Kanae, "Don't worry!"
Upon hearing this, Kanae looked Teiichi Teiichi's determined eyes, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly nodded.
The two then proceeded to the conference room.
After pushing open the door and entering, the other pillars were already there.
The purpose of this visit was different from before, and Teiichi didn't greet the others.
I quietly went to the back of the conference room and sat down.
After a brief hesitation, Kanae took her seat on either side.
Soon after, Kagaya Ubuyashiki also pushed open the door and came in.
inside the house.
Teiichi and Kagaya Ubuyashiki sat upright at opposite ends of the room.
The remaining pillars stood on either side in a kneeling posture, each with a solemn expression on their face.
Only Tengen Uzui's expression still held a hint of amusement and unruliness.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki's gaze slowly swept over everyone present, finally settling on Teiichi's face.
"Now that everyone is present, let's officially begin this special Hashira Meeting."
Kagaya Ubuyashiki's voice was steady and powerful.
"The core of this meeting revolves around two major team rules that ' Wind Hashira - Kato Teiichi ' violated while carrying out a mission."
First, it involved the murder of innocent civilians; second, it used civilians as bait to lure evil spirits into a trap.
As he spoke of these things, he looked at Teiichi again, his deep eyes seeming to see into people's hearts.
"So, regarding these two violations of team rules, Kato, do you believe they are true?"
Upon Teiichi this, Ding Yi's expression did not change much; he calmly nodded.
"Yes, I did do those two things."
Kagaya Ubuyashiki sighed softly, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes, before turning his gaze to the other pillars.
So, what are your thoughts on this?
Giyu Tomioka calmly stated, "Since Kato has admitted it, then let's proceed according to the team rules. We'll handle it according to the team rules!"
Kyojuro Rengoku asked, "Are there any rules in the team regulations regarding the punishment for these two types of behavior?"
Kagaya Ubuyashiki shook his head and explained:
"If a team member commits murder, there are relevant regulations."
Depending on the motive for the murder, if only one person is killed, a life for a life is generally not required, but severe punishment is still necessary.
However, if humans are used as bait to lure evil spirits, there are no relevant rules in the team regulations!
"Amitabha... There's nothing we can do about it. After all, we've never had a team member use civilians as bait to lure evil spirits in order to complete a mission before!" said the Gyomei Himejima.
Kyojuro Rengoku asked, "Then how should this kind of behavior be dealt with?"
Gyomei Himejima was the first to express his opinion.
"Killing is easy to do, since there are team rules to follow; but using people as bait is, in my opinion, undoubtedly more heinous and unacceptable than murder!"
Kyojuro Rengoku nodded in agreement.
He also found this kind of thing unacceptable.
His mother's words were still deeply etched in his mind.
The inherent responsibility of the strong is to protect the weak, and not to use the talents bestowed upon them by heaven to harm others or enrich themselves.
Killing humans, or even using them as bait, is undoubtedly completely contrary to a mother's teachings!
"I agree. Although the team rules don't explicitly state it, this behavior is undoubtedly a serious violation of our team rules!"
I believe this behavior should be treated as seppuku, the highest level of punishment!
