"Captain, I need a reason. Why? She's a demon!" Kyōjurō protested to Ryuji.
"Captain Ryuji, while I respect you, I also want to know why," Seiichiro Sakata took the opportunity to ask.
Kenta Inoue was more accepting of Nezuko. He simply adjusted his glasses and said, "The captain has his reasons. I don't think there's anything to ask."
The Murata brothers didn't press the issue, remaining silent.
"Big Brother White Hair, you're here too! Everyone's awake! If so, let's lift the train!"
Inosuke, seeking help, greeted everyone.
Everyone was confused. Lift the train? Why?
Ryuji, ignoring Inosuke for the moment, addressed Kyōjurō and Sakata. "A reason, you say? Why? Because while you were all asleep under Lower Rank One's Blood Demon Art, Nezuko was protecting you. Is that reason enough?!"
He then turned to Inosuke. "Inosuke, what's going on? What do you mean by 'lift the train'?"
Just then, a loud commotion reached their carriage.
Ryuji sensed an oppressive force outside. His face changed. "Not good, there's danger outside. Zenitsu, take Nezuko, let's go check it out!"
Ryuji was the first to rush out, Inosuke sensing something was wrong and immediately following.
Zenitsu grabbed the Japanese cedar box from the carriage seat, opened it, and gestured to Nezuko. "Nezuko, get in! We need to go see what's happening with Senpai Ryuji!"
Even if Ryuji hadn't told him, Zenitsu would have taken Nezuko. He wasn't comfortable leaving her with the second squad.
Nezuko instantly transformed into a three-year-old child and jumped into the box.
Zenitsu closed the box, slung it onto his back, and ran after them.
Only the four members of the Zangetsu Squad remained. Shinichi Murata said hesitantly, "Senpai Ryuji just left us like that?"
"Little brother, Senpai Ryuji was clearly angry," Shinichi Murata explained to his brother.
"Look, Nezuko is Senpai Ryuji's weak point. No matter who it is, touching her means death! So we shouldn't antagonize Nezuko.
Look at Zenitsu and Inosuke! Therefore, Vice-Captain Kyōjurō and Seiichiro, you two don't need to be so serious," Shinichi Murata took the opportunity to smooth things over for Ryuji.
He didn't want the team atmosphere to become tense. He was mediating, helping Ryuji maintain his relationship with the team.
"Let's go check out the situation too," Murata continued, giving Kyōjurō a way out.
Kyōjurō wasn't stubborn and accepted his suggestion. She ordered as the second squad leader, "Let's go!"
