Is Chapter 226 Miss Yuko?
Yuko's words piqued Shinobu's interest, and she quickly walked around to Yuko's side, carrying her medicine box.
"Is it because Yuko feels shy about shrinking that it has something to do with her?" Butterfly lowered her body, her purple eyes tinged with the red glow of the setting sun as she looked into Yuko's eyes, her rosy cheeks an indistinguishable glow of the sunset or something else.
Yuko subconsciously looked away, "Probably... I guess..."
"She's really not being frank enough." Shinobu Kocho walked backwards forward.
Yuko glanced away, avoiding eye contact with Shinobu Kocho, and pursed her lips: "Well, it's my first time too..."
Her voice was so soft that Shinobu almost didn't hear her.
Shinobu Kocho joked, "Ikuko is cute even like this~"
Yuko was both amused and exasperated: "Cute... This is the first time I've heard someone describe me like that."
Since the nation's genes have always been good, whether it's her appearance with Yoriichi and Kokusatsu, or even Tokito's appearance hundreds of years later, they can all be described as good-looking.
With her height, appearance, and the freckles on her cheeks, how could she possibly be considered cute?
"That's probably because I'm the only one who's ever seen Yuuko like this," Shinobu Kocho said with a gentle smile. "Speaking of which, wouldn't you say that's my good fortune?"
Yuko was so flustered by her teasing that she didn't know what to say.
For someone like her, who has lived for hundreds of years without ever experiencing love, to accept such provocation is practically the death of her.
How could Ren say such a thing?
What a shame.
As Shinobu Kocho watched Yuko stammer and her gaze wander, a thought involuntarily arose in her mind.
Judging from this, her position at the top should be secure.
……
As the two returned to the Butterfly House, the chattering of the three little ones in the courtyard disturbed Shinobu's torment, and Ikuko finally had a chance to make an excuse to escape.
"I'll go check on Nezuko."
Leaving behind those words, Yu Zi turned and walked away down the corridor without looking back.
Shinobu Kocho didn't chase after him. She placed her index finger on her cheek, tilted her head slightly, and her cheeks were a little flushed.
She's still so cute!
After glancing at the three people playing around in the courtyard, Yuko went to the room where everyone was resting without stopping.
Since it was a ward belonging to the Butterfly House, there was no issue with the rooms being inconvenient to enter.
If the three little ones are too excited to sleep at night, Xiao Kui will come to check on them and give them a beating.
The box containing Nezuko was neatly placed in the corner, and the door of the box was open. A young girl dressed in clothes that did not match her age was climbing out of the box.
His dazed, bewildered look as if he had just woken up.
Nezuko also contributed greatly to the fighting in the sword-forging village, and she has been sleeping in the box ever since the battle ended.
So cute!
This was Yuko's first thought.
……
Could it be that she sees this way in Ren's eyes too?
This was her second thought.
Yuko's expression became somewhat conflicted.
She's cute... cute... but the thought of that person being herself makes her feel uneasy.
Nezuko had just woken up and was already quite groggy, but when she saw Yuko approaching, she crawled towards her as if she had seen a family member, reaching out her hands.
His eyes were slightly narrowed, and he looked completely relaxed.
It was as if he was waiting for her embrace.
Looking at her innocent smile, Yu Zi felt a pang of shame turn into guilt.
She knelt down and, as Nezuko wished, pulled her into her arms and knelt on the tatami mat.
Nezuko squinted and snuggled against her with a look of enjoyment, making Yuko shift her body slightly uncomfortably.
What a strange feeling...
It's like raising a child.
I never felt this way when I hugged Nezuko before.
She really has become strange.
A hint of melancholy flashed in Yuko's eyes: "Nezuko, I..."
As soon as she opened her mouth, Nezuko stretched out her hands with a big smile and clapped them.
Yuko was stunned for a moment.
Because I used to play a clapping game with Nezuko all the time...
Yu Zi smiled knowingly: "Even if I apologized to you now, you wouldn't understand, would you?"
She placed Nezuko opposite her, and Nezuko immediately sat down obediently.
Yu Zi inexplicably felt that she might have a talent for coaxing children.
A small hand patted Yu Zi's palm.
It seems like this is the first time she's played a game with such a tiny Nezuko; her hands are so small!
For no apparent reason, Yuko thought that if she could shrink herself, she might have more fun playing with Nezuko.
Anyway, she was wondering if she should work on her strange sense of shame, otherwise she wouldn't have the confidence to speak to Shinobu.
As a result, Nezuko's facial expression changed several times in a short period of time.
From a smile to confusion, then to a blank stare, and finally to unprecedented joy on her face.
That look was as if it were saying...
Wow, Yuko, you've become just like me!
Yu Zi could inexplicably read the words in her eyes.
……
Well, she does look a little strange, and because she's been thinking too much, she's feeling a bit awkward around Nezuko.
Fortunately, it wasn't as unnatural as she had imagined. Was it because she couldn't bear it?
Yu Zi tightened her loose-fitting outfit, making the trouser legs look a bit bulky.
Suddenly, she could understand why the ghost would turn its own flesh and blood into clothes.
It feels a bit strange, but it's really useful.
No need to worry about clothes not fitting properly, or clothes getting torn or dirty. This saves so much on water, electricity, and laundry detergent!
Yu Zi sighed softly. She really had lost her mind. With a formidable enemy at hand, why was she still thinking about such nonsense?
Nezuko tugged at her little hand, her face beaming with joy.
This child... is even more enthusiastic than before.
Yuko's lips twitched slightly involuntarily.
She sighed again.
Okay, let's relax a little one last time.
Once Kagaya Ubuyashiki confirmed Muzan's information, the training camp began, and they had no time to play.
Yuko could clearly sense that Nezuko was more enthusiastic than ever before, and her eyes seemed to be sparkling when she looked at her.
It's true that only children can play with other children better.
This appearance... might not be as strange as she imagined.
Just as Yuko was letting her mind wander again.
wow...
The door was suddenly pulled open, and the two young girls instinctively turned their heads to look.
Nezuko: It's my older brother.
Ikuko: It’s Tanjiro.
……
Tanjiro? !
Yu Zi suddenly woke up, only then realizing that she was still in the hospital room.
"Um..." Tanjiro stood at the doorway, clearly stunned for a moment, and hesitated before asking, "Is this Miss Ikuko?"
