Walking through the streets of Kyoto on the fifth day of the sixth month of the first year of the Genji era, Yanagizumi tried to ignore the inexplicable irritability in his heart.

She was very concerned about the special situation that was different from the history and plot she knew, but because there was bound to be a time to march here, she must also bring a sword to the death god - otherwise, she felt that it would be more convenient and faster for her to infiltrate this era to investigate.

After thinking about it, they excluded the swords of the new sengumi in addition to the director's love sword, also because they were worried that their residual feelings for the old master would affect the development of the situation and their own judgment.

Although she can't just say with such confidence, "Even if I stand in front of the deputy chief, I won't rush up and hug him and cry", but it is still possible to try to stay calm and suppress the impact of the march on the world first.

What's more, at this time, the Shinsengumi are in their heyday, and tonight is their most beautiful and shining moment. The time-traveling march wanted to cause chaos, nothing more than to oppose the Shinsengumi and destroy the victory they deserved. Standing in the shoes of the Shinsengumi and fighting the guys who destroyed them was something she was familiar with.

Standing on the street, Liu Quan thought for a moment, and felt that the six beautiful men who were lined up behind him, from the beautiful boy to the beautiful young man—to pay off the PLAY version of the military uniform—were too conspicuous. According to Yamazaki's experience in spying on intelligence, his actions and image must be low-key and low-key. For example, he once pretended to be a beggar to beg on the side of the road in order to convey news, for example, she once disguised herself as a poor girl with freckles on her face and mediocre facial features and yellow face in order to meet Xiaoyi, and so on.

So she cautiously found a hotel on the street and checked in.

The inns of this era were simply a hotbed for all kinds of unscrupulous ronin. Contrary to what I imagined, even if the excesses or feudal lords who came to Beijing from Choshu and other places gathered in a certain inn to plot something, the inn would not be easily closed down or severely punished for not reporting it or harboring repeat offenders.

It's a natural hideaway.

Liu Quan easily chose a small inn located on Sansantong Road. The proprietress didn't even look at the combination of the beautiful young men behind her who were wearing military uniforms and were obviously not ordinary townspeople, all the way to the beautiful young men.

...... In fact, she also asked Sanri Yuezong at the beginning, since he insisted on following the formation, if he wanted to change into a formation uniform that was in line with the era here. After all, because there is a possibility of a Japanese war in this battle, it means that they may appear on the streets during the day, and maybe they will have to go to the streets to investigate, and it is too conspicuous to wear a hunting suit from the Heian period.

However, the answer given by the Three Days Moon Sect at that time simply made her eyes bulge out in an instant.

He smiled and said, "Hahaha, then let's change into a dress similar to everyone else."

Liu Quan looked back at the row of Awataguchi and the military uniform on the smiling Qingjiang, and felt a sharp pain in his head.

Ah, is this going to be a military uniform PLAY...... How much do you want to brush up on the screams and popularity of a wave of fan girls?

However, the urgency of the situation is not the time to slowly calm down and convince this unexpectedly stubborn old man.

Therefore, Liu Quan had no choice but to instruct Kitsunosuke to find a set of his designated battle clothes for the Three Days-Moon Sect. However, her idea is that in order not to make him look too eye-catching, she must go to the street to get a normal kimono and force him to change into it after arriving at the location of this mission!

Now, as soon as they entered the hotel, she began to assign tasks.

Since it wasn't far from Ikedaya, she ordered Toru Choso, who knew the streets of the neighborhood, to keep a watch on the streets.

A few people from the smiling Qingjiang and Awataguchi families went out separately to investigate the movements near several important locations in the past few days. For example, there are any changes in the vicinity of the Shinsengumi Tunsho, the vicinity of Ikedaya, and even the Shikoku House, which was locked down due to an incorrect intelligence error, and the Higakuya run by Shuntaro Kotaka near Shijo Kobashi, and the suspicious crowds entering and exiting, and so on.

"Originally, it was Kotaka Shuntaro who was raided by the Shinsengumi for harboring unscrupulous ronin, but during the search, it was found that a large number of guns, ammunition and other weapons had been hoarded in the house, and Furutaka Shuntaro as the owner was brought back to the Mibu Tun for strict interrogation. ”

In the cramped room of the small inn, Liu Quan looked around at the six sword gods around him, and said in a cautious and solemn tone.

"After a long inquiry, the deputy chief ...... Mr. Hijikata finally pried his mouth open. ”

After subconsciously adopting the word "deputy chief", she seemed to realize that her current identity was different from before, so she quickly revised her name for Hijikata and continued with a normal face:

"So, I learned about the plans of those so-called 'diligent kings'. According to intelligence, several possible meeting sites were identified, and it was hoped that they would be arrested before they could do anything. However, in the end, it was uncertain whether they would appear in Ikedaya or Shikokuya, so people were eventually deployed in both directions to search for them. ”

"Everyone must know what happened after that. ”

With that, she paused again, looking around at everyone in the room.

"After thinking about it, if the daytime on June 5 is the most likely time point in time when the time-retrospective march is aimed at changing history, in addition to changing the meeting place of the excesses of the ronin, the only thing is to recapture the guns and ammunition in the kengby that have been confiscated by the Shinsengumi. ”

She said.

"Gugao's arrest seems to have happened on June 4. After the rest of the night, the people continued to meet to discuss any changes to the plan for the event......"

She curled her lips slightly and smiled.

"After all, it's not so easy to send messages. Moreover, dozens of people want to subvert the entire capital, it's—"

What was it? She didn't go on.

After a pause, she continued: "Therefore, it is necessary for everyone to keep an eye on these key locations. In addition to being careful about the movement of the time-traced march, if you find evidence of a large number of Ronin frequents in a particular location, especially one that is different from Ikedaya, please contact others as soon as possible. ”

After seeing everyone bowing their heads, she stood up with her hands on the ground.

Cattail has a more lively personality and shouts, "Master, where are you going?"

Liu Quan turned to look at him and smiled.

"Me, I'll go to the house with Mikazuki-kun. Anyway, I'm still very concerned about those ronins reclaiming their guns~"

Being named, Sanri Moon Sect stood up calmly, walked behind her, held the hilt of the five swords in the world at his waist with his left hand, and also glanced back at the other companions who were still in this room, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

Liu Quan was embarrassed.

"No...... You're too much of an eye-catcher, so you'd better change into something more ordinary......" she said in a weak tone.

Three Days Moon Sect: "Ahaha, is it? Xue Ye-kun originally thought that my appearance was very attractive to others." ”

Other mourners: "......"

Liu Quan: "...... Is that such a thing to be happy about......"

Fortunately, when she checked in at the beginning, she took out the money in advance and asked the proprietress to help her get a few ordinary clothes.

Although Kyoto is like a sieve at this time, and almost most of the townspeople have the attribute of "inquiring and chatting", for the time being, the Shinsengumi and Kyoto Sojidai should not be staring at their group, but the whereabouts of Miyabe Dingzo, Yoshida Minoru and other radical ronins who were just arrested yesterday and locked up by confiding the truth under the means of the deputy chief.

Not to mention, even people like Ryoma Sakamoto, Shintaro Nakaoka or Kogoro Katsura have their hiding places in Kyoto. Not to mention the harmless-looking ones.

The proprietress was very neat, and soon knocked on the door and brought a simple men's kimono. The blue jacket and gray horse hakama are the most common colors nowadays.

Mikazuki looked at the kimono and sighed half-truthfully.

"I'm not good at dressing up—" he said.

In the next second, Liu Quan quickly flashed out the door.

“...... I think everyone in the house will be more than willing to help you!" she exclaimed, "I'll go outside the store and find out the news!"

Without waiting for the black-bellied old man to speak, she stumbled all the way down the stairs.

Recently, it was the time of the Gion Festival, so the streets seemed to be much busier than usual, and there were more pedestrians.

In the world of the Sakura Ghost, on this day, she happened to be locked up in a rage by the deputy chief because of the exposure of her female identity, so she really hadn't seen the street scene on June 5 of the first year of Genji with her own eyes.

With some strangeness – and sighs – she stood outside the store, looking out at the seemingly familiar and somewhat unfamiliar street.

For some reason, Hijikata's voice suddenly rang in her head.

[Whether it's going on a mission or not, if you invite girls to the festival, no matter what the reason, it's better to invite yourself in person.] 】

Oh, it reminded her of the shrine that was "very good at getting married, and a special festival is being held that can only be entered by couples who go together."

Thinking of the daytime of the festival, he turned back from the goldfish stall and handed her the appearance of the deputy head of the crystal clear glass tank containing a small goldfish.

I thought of the night of the festival, leaning against the trunk of the tree beside her and napping the deputy chief. The lights in the shrine dimmed, and the faint dots of light jumped on the ends of his hair and face, casting a thin shadow on the side of his tall nose.

...... How are you now, Mr. Hijikata.

Such words came to her mind for a moment, and they were quickly suppressed by her reason.

There is no point in thinking about these questions again.

From the moment she tied the white scarf with haiku written on it tightly to the fence on the beach near Bentendaiba, she was no longer qualified to ask such a question.

Would it be good for the person who was forcibly dragged out of her tragic and martyrdom fate, who lost the faith of the priest, the general, the companion, and even the life she fought for, and who lost her true name and continued to live in that era. Will it be fun. Will you bear the sacrifices and lives of the generals and their companions—everyone—and live so peacefully and calmly?

This kind of question that she had never dared to think about and had been forcing herself not to think about suddenly came to her mind, and she suddenly felt extremely guilty and sad for a moment.

From an objective standpoint, it is not simply ignorant and unconscious that it is best to live.

However, from the standpoint of being close to him, respecting him, and admiring him, I would rather he live no matter what, even if he is numb and ignorant, even if he loses his ideals, even if he changes history-

She couldn't think any further. Because there was a peaceful, rhythmic sound of footsteps on the stairs.

The Three Days Moon Sect walked down the stairs and walked out of the store door to her.

"Let's go, Snow ...... Also, Jun. ”

He paused slightly, and changed his address to the same male pseudonym she had been.

"Let's go to the house. He said calmly.

"Then, if necessary, defeat your former companions, help those you once hated, and reclaim the weapons they had to get back in order to cause trouble. ”

Willow Springs: !!

Although she knew that this time her mission was like this—to preserve history, whether or not that history was in favor of her heart's desire—she still felt that this passage was a little harsh, and couldn't help frowning.

I said...... Is it necessary to say it so directly. She lowered her voice and muttered as if she were complaining.

Three days and moon Zongjin's ears were very pointed, and of course he heard her words. He smiled tolerantly, and pressed his hand on her shoulder, as if to comfort her or cheer her up.

"Ahh He said.

"So, for their light, you should work hard, okay?"

The author has something to say: September 20:

Recently, I was very busy moving and was a little sick......

So can we change it to two days for the time being?

The time is still tentatively set at 0:00 every other day, for example, the next time it will be 0:00 on the 22nd.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

When things are almost busy on my side, I will resume the day~~
