Shinobu Kocho was montarily stunned. Clearly, the way she referred to these two liquids was by so other nas.
The nas "ammonia" and "thanol" hadn't beco widespread yet, and she didn't understand what they referred to. But Jotaro wasn't wrong about one thing, these two liquids are highly toxic and extrely hazardous to human health.
Although no one else usually cos in here except her, she still placed warning labels on the bottles, afraid soone might accidentally misuse them.
"Mr. Jotaro is right, Kamado, quickly put the lid back on, it's very dangerous," Shinobu reminded.
Tanjiro did indeed feel a bit dizzy, and nausea was rising in him. He hurriedly closed the lid and said, "Mr. Jotaro, Miss Shinobu, I definitely didn't sll it wrong."
"The guy who turned Nezuko into a demon, that sll was on his body."
Shinobu didn't know about Tanjiro's incredible sense of sll, but Jotaro understood it clearly.
During his first few days in this world, one ti while shopping in town, Jotaro had checked his wallet on the road and accidentally dropped his watch and lighter into the snow.
In the end, it was thanks to Tanjiro's sharp sense of sll that he found Jotaro's watch. At that mont, he realized Tanjiro's sense of sll far surpassed that of ordinary people.
As for why the lighter wasn't found, that's because a wolf had taken it.
Tanjiro slled the scent of wolves in the area and deduced this. With his sense of sll, he could have helped Jotaro track the wolf down. But Jotaro found it too troubleso, so he let it go.
He felt it was a bit too much to treat this kid like a dog. After all, along the whole way, Tanjiro had been sniffing the ground to track it.
Even though Tanjiro didn't mind at all, even smiling brightly and excitedly, Jotaro still felt that this sowhat insulted his dignity.
If it were him, he definitely couldn't go to that extent. What he couldn't do himself, he wouldn't force others to do. So, he didn't ask Tanjiro to look for the lost lighter.
It wasn't a necessity, from his perspective, not worth the effort.
"Tanjiro, are you sure you didn't sll it wrong?" Jotaro asked with a frown.
'Why would Muzan's body carry the sll of ammonia and thanol?' He couldn't figure it out.
Tanjiro nodded and said, "Mr. Jotaro, I'm sure, that person definitely had these two slls on him. I originally thought it was just the sll of alcohol, but after slling this, I can confirm the scent was thanol. The sll of alcohol is mild, it doesn't irritate the nose like thanol does."
Jotaro's eyes narrowed, clearly, he already believed Tanjiro's words, and he had thought of sothing.
"Tanjiro, did that guy have any other slls on him? Why would a person have the scent of ammonia and thanol on their body?"
"If we can learn more information, maybe we could even track down the guy who escaped. thanol is highly volatile. If the scent lingered on his body long enough for you to sll it... Then it's possible that bastard lives not far from your ho."
Tanjiro fell silent for a mont, holding his head with both hands in frustration, "He really did have other scents on him, but they're too hard for to describe."
Jotaro said, "Why? Is it because they're things rarely encountered in real life?"
Tanjiro nodded and said, "I truly haven't slled those scents before, so..."
Jotaro understood and couldn't help speculating, "Ammonia is a common component in household cleaning products, it wouldn't be strange to sll it on soone. But that person is a demon. I don't think he's the type to obediently do housework."
"Yare yare." Jotaro closed his eyes and said, "Besides that, he also slls like thanol. These two liquids are common chemical industrial materials..."
But from Muzan's clothing, it was clear this person wouldn't be frequenting chemical factories or similar places.
Jotaro could determine with certainty that Muzan must be hiding among human society, living under a human identity.
To find him among the vast sea of people, they'd need much more intel. Just relying on Tanjiro identifying two slls was far from enough.
Shinobu had a faint smile, her smile always looked so gentle, so lovely, but not truly sincere. Maybe only she herself knew that this kind of smile didn't co from the heart.
"Mr. Jotaro, I didn't expect you to know quite a lot. But your thinking is very dangerous," Shinobu kindly warned.
"I know you're both still deeply bothered by the demon attack. But with just the two of you, you can't take down soone like that. Demons are more dangerous than you imagine."
She gently patted Tanjiro's head and said in a soft voice, "Slaying demons is the Demon Slayer Corps' job. Just leave it to us. Don't go doing dangerous things alone, okay?"
It wasn't that Shinobu looked down on them, she just didn't want them to go off and get themselves killed. Those who survive demon attacks often develop the mistaken belief that demons aren't so scary after all.
Under that illusion, they often underestimate demons' strength, and end up in bloody tragedies. Many junior Demon Slayers died at the hands of demons because of that very reason.
She didn't want to see two innocent people go to waste like that.
However, Jotaro was currently in his rebellious teenage phase, even if he knew the other person had good intentions, he wouldn't listen to this nagging woman. He directly chose to ignore her.
Jotaro's reaction made Shinobu so angry she almost choked. Just one look and it was clear he hadn't listened at all. 'This self-righteous, infuriating little punk!'
Shinobu held back her anger and smiled, "Well then, since you clearly have so stereotypical impressions of demons, let give you a proper introduction to these creatures. After you hear it, you should understand why your thinking is extrely dangerous."
This actually piqued Jotaro's interest, after all, he knew very little about demons. Knowing more about demon intel would make future fights easier.
In his impression, other demons should be similar to Muzan, even if not as strong as him, their combat ability wouldn't be much weaker.
It's like a student facing an extrely difficult first question on a test, they'll naturally assu the rest of the test is just as hard.
