"Um, how exactly are we going to do this?" asked Tanjiro.
"Well we're gonna be disguised of course. And as much as I hate the idea, be plain. You guys will just have to do a certain something and infiltrate. My three wives are top of the line female shinobi, kunoichi. We believe that the flower district is an ideal place for a demon to lurk. When I infiltrated as a customer, I couldn't find any traces. So because of that, we went a bit deeper than mere customers. We've narrowed the suspicious stores down to four, so you guys will look for my wives in three of the four of them and gather intel. 'Suma' in the 'Tokito' house, 'Makio' in 'Ogimoto' house and 'Hinatsuri' in the 'Kyougoku' house. The last house is the 'Ukimi' house." Uzui explained holding up four fingers.
"Aren't your wives dead already?" commented Inosuke only to receive a punch in the stomach.
"We brought the necessary items over." said two workers.
"Thanks." said Uzui.

[The [Yoshiwara red light district]. The night district where the lust and warms of men and women swirl in a storm of love and hate. The red light district is called the 'flower district' because as the name implies, this part of the city is shaped like a flower.
The prostitutes living her are either in poverty or sold due to loans. They bare a lot of hardships. But in exchange, they are guaranteed the necessities of life. If they can make their way up as prostitutes, they could potentially be apart of a wealthy family by being bought out.
The most prominent amongst them, the 'oiran', are completely different all together. They are special women who acquired everything: beauty, education, performance. You can't simply meet a high ranking oiran. To have an audience with them, men have to frequently visit the red light district, as if they were competing with each other.]
"Oh, dear me. These girls are too ugly. Not at our place. We just bought a new girl a few days ago, so I'm sorry." said the old man.
"Well maybe one is ok." said the old woman.
"Well then I'll entrust one to you. Sorry ma'am." said Uzui who now had his hair down, with no makeup(or whatever the marks on his face are) and wearing different clothes.
"Then we'll take the one in the middle. She seems so honest." said the lady.
"I'll work hard!" exclaimed Tanjiro who had ugly makeup on like Inosuke and Zenitsu.
Tanjiro was sold and the other three walked away.
"You guys are so useless. I can only sell you guys for cheap." said Uzui angrily, "Yoriichi and Michikatsu actually got sold for a lot more at the Ukimi house, then there's you guys who no one wants to buy."
"I'm not going to talk to you." said Zenitsu angrily.
"You made because I made you dress like a girl? You were the one who said that you'd listen to whatever I say." said Uzui.
'I don't care about dressing like a girl. It's your face. You have a normal male face. Give me a break.' Zenitsu mentally complained.
"Hey look there's people gathering over there!"
"Ah. It's an oiran parade. It's 'Koinatsu oiran' from the 'Tokito house'. The highest rank oiran is going to greet her customers. In any case, she's flamboyant. She has many people following her." explained Uzui.
"Wife!? is that beauty your wife?! She's too much! Is all three of your wives beautiful?!" yelled Zenitsu getting up in Uzui's face.
"Too close! She's not my wife! You'll tell because their names are on the lists." Uzui snatched Zenitsu away from his face.
"She's walking slow. If she were in the mountains she'd be dead right away." commented Inosuke not realising there was a woman staring right at him behind his back.
"Excuse me sir, I'd like to take this girl in. Is that ok?" asked the woman who was behind Inosuke. "I'm part of the 'Ogimoto house', my eyes do not deceive me."
"Oh you're part of the Ogimoto house! Well thanks for your patronage (support from a patron in case someone doesn't know). Be well Inoko." Uzui waved to Inosuke as the woman took him away.
Uzui and Zenitsu looked at each other. 'Oh no! I'm the only one left!!' Zenitsu mentally panicked.
Zenitsu ended up being sold to the Kyougoku house.
With Yoriichi and Michikatsu*
The two twins sat on mats at the Ukimi house as an old woman sat in front of them, surrounded by the other girls at the house.
"They're beautiful!"
"So pretty!"
"Maybe they'll be able to compete with Warabihime and Koinatsu!"
The girls complimented the twins who were completely stiff.
'What the f*ck are we supposed to do?' Michikatsu mentally asked.
'I don't know. Just stay calm.' Yoriichi mentally replied.
'Stay calm?! How the f*ck am I supposed to stay calm in this situation?! If I have to sleep with someone I'm gonna find Uzui and beat his as*!' declared Michikatsu mentally as Yoriichi sweat dropped.
"Right they're amazing. What are your names girls?" asked the owner.
"I'm Yoimiya madam." answered Yoriichi
"I'm her younger twin sister, Mieko ma'am." Michikatsu answered after Yoriichi.
"They are so polite! They must already be educated! That's good because they weren't cheap." said the owner.
'Cheap?! No way in hell am I cheap! I'm f*cking fabulous.' thought Michikatsu as Yoriichi mentally face palmed.
'I thought you were against dressing up as a girl and being sold.' Yoriichi mentally said.
'Yeah but damn that Warabihime from the house close by is kinda pretty.' Michikatsu mentally answered.
'I thought you were gay?' Yoriichi mentally questioned.
'I'm bi (bro me too)and so are you.'
'And yet we're still single.'
'I know right.'.
'Yeah but even though that Warabihime lady is pretty, she gives me a weird vibe.' Michikatsu shivered.
"Oh are you cold? Hana-chan please get them some blankets." said the owner.
"Yes Urami-san." a green haired girl stood up and walked to another room to get blankets.
'Urami? Aren't the houses usually named after the last name of the owner? She should be the owner so why is the house named 'Ukimi' and not 'Urami'?' wondered Michikatsu.
'You do know that last names can change by generations right dumb*ss? Her last name also started with a 'U' anyways. This house seems old anyways so it's obviously been passed down to generations meaning that her family name must've changed along the way.' Yoriichi mentally said.
'Damn you're right. You're actually smart.' Michikatsu mentally said.
'Of course I am.'
'No but you're usually dumb and I'm the one who does everything.'
'Shut up you m*ron.' Yoriichi mentally retorted.
'Alright then ret*rd.'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Tashio Secret~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Yoriichi and Michikatsu were about to get layers of makeup on their face by Uzui but they refused saying that they'd do it themselves. They ended up just taking their hair down and covering up their birthmarks as well as changing clothes
- I got Yoriichi's female name from Genshin Impact because I couldn't think of anything else
- The founder of the Ukimi house's last name was not the same as the current owner's (their last name is not 'Urami')
