Chapter 931: Kanao's Trolley Problem

The Trolley Problem! A trolley problem unique to Kanao!

The two most important people in Kanao's life were Shinobu Kocho and Kanae. Lin Ye's question instantly placed her on a roasting spit.

Everyone has their own trolley problem, and the most common one is usually... do you like your dad more or your mom more... Anyway, at this moment, Lin Ye's question sounded just like that to Kanao's ears.

At this moment, Kanao looked at the coin in her hand; for the first time, she couldn't toss it.

If the coin was heads, could she abandon Shinobu? If the coin was tails, could she ignore the death of Kanae?

Kanao instantly remembered the scene from her childhood when Kanae gave her this coin. At that time, she couldn't even decide when to eat and almost starved herself to death, when Kanae said to her:

"As long as there is an opportunity, a person's heart will bloom. It doesn't matter if you can't make a choice now. If one day you find a boy you like, even Kanao will change, right?"

For the first time in her life, Kanao encountered something that couldn't be judged with a coin.

Kanao looked blankly at Lin Ye in front of her. She opened her mouth but couldn't speak. After failing to speak several times, she suddenly dropped the coin and ran outside!

That's right, although she didn't answer Lin Ye's question, she had made the first decision of her life!

The third path! I'll just run away, won't I!!!

Watching Kanao flee, Lin Ye suddenly couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing Lin Ye's laughter, Nezuko, who was on the side, muttered in a low voice: "Brother Lin Ye is too mean."

However... it seems it really is quite interesting.

In the evening, when Shinobu Kocho saw the crow fly back and breathed a sigh of relief, Kanao, who was walking over, whispered to her:

"Sister Shinobu... it's time to eat..."

"Mm, okay, let's go eat." Shinobu nodded subconsciously, but the next second, she reacted and looked at Kanao in front of her, bewildered:

"Wait, did you... toss the coin just now?"

No, this is very wrong! Kanao taking the initiative to ask her to eat! Usually, wasn't it her calling Kanao before she would come?

Looking at the bewildered Shinobu Kocho, Kanao said aggrievedly: "The coin... doesn't work anymore..."

Looking at the aggrieved Kanao, and learning from her what had happened today, Shinobu Kocho was left between laughter and tears.

"This Lin Ye... really is... well done!"

That's right!

It was well done!

Shinobu had long wanted Kanao to change her problem of having no independent thought, but she had never found a way. But now... it can only be said that Lin Ye is worthy of being Lin Ye!!

Over the next few days, the Tanjiro trio kept practicing the Total Concentration Breathing method, which was the ability to maintain Total Concentration Breathing all day long. This was the first step toward becoming a Hashira. Once they learned this breathing method, Tanjiro wouldn't need to wait for Giyu Tomioka's rescue the next time he encountered Rui, and his strength would reach the level of an average Lower Rank.

Lin Ye, having nothing to do, also took the time to give the trio some pointers. Under the blessing of Hero Creation EX and the guidance of Lin Ye, the number one teacher in the Type-Moon World, the trio quickly got the hang of it.

During these few days, Shinobu's attitude toward Lin Ye became better and better. As for Kanao, every time she saw him, she would turn around and run, not even tossing her coin, making Lin Ye seem like some kind of flood or wild beast.

Just as Kanao turned around to escape again today, Lin Ye finally couldn't hold back anymore.

"Stop!"

Hum!

Kanao stopped her footsteps, then turned around and lowered her head, not daring to look at Lin Ye's face.

This scene made Lin Ye suddenly feel like he was a big bad guy bullying a little girl, which made Lin Ye very uncomfortable.

"Why do you run every time you see me? I won't eat you."

Hearing Lin Ye's words, Kanao Tsuyuri continued to lower her head and said in a small voice: "Because... I still can't answer your question."

"Can't toss the coin?"

"No... I can't... I can't abandon either Sister Shinobu or Sister Kanae."

Hearing Kanao say this, Lin Ye suddenly smiled. "Look, don't you have your own thoughts now? Humans are always subjective animals, and there is no such thing as absolute fairness or absolute ruthlessness in the world. Your so-called bewilderment is just that you have never found what you care about...."

Lin Ye took the coin from Kanao's hand, and then he tossed it high into the sky.

"I know a person who often likes to toss coins. I'll ask you another question now: there are two people you can save, one is Shinobu Kocho, the other is Muzan. Heads you save Shinobu Kocho, tails you save Muzan. Now that it has landed on the ground as tails, will you save Muzan?"

"Of course not."

"So..." Lin Ye looked at the coin falling from the sky. He didn't let Kanao see whether it was heads or tails, and then he gripped it directly in his hand. Looking at the uneasy Kanao, Lin Ye then said to her: "I know a person who, when faced with two choices, tossing a coin always works. It's not because it always gives the right answer, but because in the second you toss it into the air, you suddenly know what you hope it is."

In the second it's tossed, you suddenly know what you hope it is?

At this moment, Kanao suddenly understood! She finally understood what she wanted! She finally understood what she cared about!

At this moment, she looked at Lin Ye's hand holding the coin in silence. After a long time, she tentatively reached out her hand, wanting to see the heads or tails of that coin, to make the final decision.

However, Lin Ye flipped his hand and put the coin directly into the Imaginary Number Space.

"This coin, consider it a gift for me. When you want to make the biggest decision of your life, come find me to get it back."

After saying this, Lin Ye stood up and prepared to leave. Watching Lin Ye's back, Kanao suddenly asked:

"Wait! That person you mentioned who tosses coins, did he make his own choice?"

"Him?? He is very happy." Lin Ye gave a seemingly affirmative answer.

Hearing Lin Ye's words, Kanao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and then left the spot, feeling somewhat bewildered yet somewhat firm.

From today on, she might no longer need that coin. ===== CHAPTER 933 =====
