Chapter 9 -The Flower District-

"Oh, dear... These are some ugly girls. But we've already brought a new girl in a couple days ago..."

'How did we get so low...' Lakira thought.

The Flower District, where lust and charms of men and women arise swirling into a storm of desire and disgust.
The prostitutes either living in poverty or sold out due to loans. They bear a lot of hardship

"Well, it should be ok... We'll take the middle one" the old lady said and Tanjiro spoke up,

"I'll work as hard as I can!" Uzui thanked her and walked away,

"I only can sell you guys for cheap" he huffed, "Noir why did you put that terrible makeup on..."

"Being ugly helps me in this case, sorry Zentisu" Lakira smiled as they walked

"What is that suppose to mean!!?" Zentisu cried out clinching his fist.

"Hey! There's a bunch of people gathering around there!" Inouske and the others looked over with the sound pillar explaining what was happening,

"It's an 'Oiran Parade'. It's 'Koinatsu Oiran' from the 'Tokiti House' the highest-ranked prostitute"

"It's that your wife!!!? Are all three of your wife beautiful?!"

"Excuse me, sir. I'd like to take these two girls in. I'm part of the 'Ogimoto House'... My eyes don't deceive me." Uzui smiled

"Oh! You're from the Ogimoto House! Well, thanks for your patronage." Lakira and Inouske started walking with the lady as Uzui waved them bye, "Be well, Lakira, Inoko!" Then glance at Zentisu with disappointment.

'Oh no, I'm the only one left!!!'

----

"Lakira sweetheart, I'm gonna sell you off to the 'Tokito House' for a good price" Lakira nodded,

"I'll be happy to go there, when Am I leaving ma'm"

"Today" Lakira stood there for a second... And the lady dragged her out holding her and the whole way.

"Hello, Ma'm," the old lady pinched her cheeks,

"You look so young how old are you?"

"15 Ma'm"

"Well Lakira you can share a room with Sumiko come I'll show you there Sumiko should be on a brake, "

"Ok" she followed the lady and stopped at the sliding door open, "Hello" Lakira smiled at Tanjiro and he smiled,

"This is your new roommate her names Lakira" Lakira and Tanjiro acted like they didn't know each other and when the lady left they sat down.

"Did you learn anything Tanjiro?"

"Yeah... Before we came here they said a hostess fell out the window and died and they said suma-sama "lost her footing" and she also had a dairy that said the same thing" Lakira nodded

"We need to keep it on the down-low, "

"Yeah."

"Like I was saying there's a demon at my place! it was like this!!" Inosuke yelled posing, "then like this!"

"Uh... Yeah. But just hold up a bit. We need to wait for Zentisu and Uzui-san for our regular meeting" Tanjiro told him.

"Zentisu's not coming"

"What do you mean Zentisu's not coming?" Lakira said tensing up,

"He stopped contacting me last night. And those who stop are considered dead. I will move on from here"

"Hold it old man!" Then Uzui vanished,

Tanjiro frowned looking at Inouske, "Maybe he doesn't believe us because we're the members lowest class"

"We're the fourth lowest on the rank."

"What?!"

"Show us our ranks!" Inouske clenched his fist and a 7 appeared.

"Kanoe, that's your ranks," Lakira said,

"What's yours?" Tanjiro asked,

"Tsuchinoe, two above you"

"... You really are a total dumbass!" Inosuke started hitting Tanjiro who covered his head,

"Ow, ow, stop hitting me okay!" Tanjiro begged, "I think there might be passages in the buildings..."

"Passages?" And Lakira nodded,

"Their working from the inside not the outside." Lakira made some gestures as she spoke, "what you saw Inouske was the demon's shadow from the passage. And they're acting as humans to keep cove."

"Their taking caution with kill so people won't notice," Tanjiro said adding onto Lakira. "That's why I think Zentisu and the others are still alive. So with that in mind please take in mind. Lakira you too"

Inouske grinned, "everything you said right now was what I was trying to say!!"
