Tanjiro isn’t the only one with a demon alongside him.

In the wisteria residence. The old woman introduced them to a doctor to help check their injuries. All of them have broken ribs. As they laid in bed, Inosuke then claims that the lump on his head from Tanjiro's head butt hurts, leading Tanjiro to apologize. Zenitsu took the chance and asks for Inosuke's apology for beating him, to which Inosuke claimed he'll pass the chance, annoying him and Tanjiro for his rudeness.

Inosuke and the two others were informed by Tanjiros’ Kasugai Crow that the house they are in belongs to a family who was rescued by Demon Slayers in the past; as such, they tend to Demon Slayers for free as thanks for their rescue. Tanjiro then asked about Inosukes’ reason for entering Final Selection. He gave his reason: a Demon Slayer entered his mountain, leading Inosuke to beat him and take his sword. He then learned about the selection process and the existence of demons.

Zenitzu took the opportunity to ask Inosuke about his reason for carrying a demon with him. Inosuke was going to hurl a pillow at Zenitzu; But suddenly, the basket began to shake, scaring Zenitzu greatly. Tanjiro attempts to calm his friend but fails when Zenitsu grows even more anxious. The basket tipped over and the blanket over the top had untied and came undone; And Zenitsu hysterically attempt to escape the room, leading Inosuke to kick him away. He landed in front of the basket as the blanket over it was tugged and it slowly stopped shaking; when a hand appears, Zenitsu ran away to a closet, only to see you crawl out.

As Inosuke called to you, you stood up and showed your full self to Zenitsu. He subsequently becomes enraged that Inosuke had been travelling "with a demon this cute". You glanced at all three of them before glancing at your toppled-over basket. Zenitzu is enraged at the moment.
