The Three Days Moon Sect was silent for a long time.

Finally, he looked away, tilted his head slightly, and looked at the night sky.

"Huh. He said.

The most beautiful of the five swords in the world looked at the night sky, and the light of the fire in front of his knees was reflected on his chest and chin, illuminating those places in light and dark, outlining a profound light and shadow.

Listening to the syllable he uttered, Liu Quan turned his head slightly, staring at his side face, the arc of his face and figure, which was suddenly brightened and darkened by the firelight. She was silent for a moment, and then suddenly felt the need to add a few words, and she spoke again.

"I say this not because I still have unrealistic expectations for the deputy chief, but"

At this, she suddenly choked up again. She lowered her head and thought for a few seconds, as if she hadn't thought of a perfect and exact way to put it in the eye, She shook her head and smiled wryly.

"Well, it's probably because of the residual sense of justice in my heart."

Perhaps because he thought her words were interesting, Three Days Moon Sect bent his eyebrows almost silently.

However, the smile was far from penetrating his eyes.

A slightly awkward silence suddenly fell between them. For a moment, only the sound of the two of them breathing softly floated around them, and no one spoke again.

As if to escape this embarrassing and unsettling atmosphere, Liu Quan also threw away the wooden stick in his hand, propped his hands behind his back, and leaned back a little bit of his entire upper body, raising his head to look at the night sky like the Three Days Moon Sect.

Then, she realized that there were many stars twinkling in the sky tonight. The blue-black sky dome floated above them like a sequined piece of satin.

At night in early summer, the sky seemed very high, completely unaffected by the baptism and influence of artillery fire on the distant earth, and the night sky showed a sense of high and clear purity, and there was a faint smell of fresh grass and trees around him, as well as the chirping of summer insects, all of which seemed to be like a beautiful fantasy isolated from the world, and the battlefield below the slope that had almost turned into a hell on earth presented a completely different and sharp contrast.

She seemed to be slightly stunned, and then slowly curled the corners of her lips.

Without trying to explain anything to the person sitting next to her, or she just wanted to use that act of "explaining" to slowly clear up her inner turmoil, she just looked up at the night sky and said in a leisurely voice

"Sighing Spring Moon"

"I can't sleep in the narrow plains"

"Only the moonlight is cool"

Of course, Mikazuki Sojin also heard this haiku she recited. He was silent for a moment, then finally broke his silence.

"Ahahahaha. He smiled softly.

"Man, maybe it's like the moon. He said unexpectedly.

Willow Springs "Eh"

She turned her face in surprise to look at one of the five swords in the world. But he turned his head slightly, looking at the bright moon in the sky.

"The true face of man is like the waxing and waning of the moon. If you look at it from a different angle, you can see a completely different look."

He looked at the bright moon at the intersection of spring and summer, and his tone became a little meaningful.

"Yes, just like the things of the world. ”

After several more days of hiding and surveillance in Hakodate, Yanagizumi and his party finally waited for the moment when the Ezo Republic surrendered.

Standing on the hillside, Ryuzumi looked at Keisuke Otori, the commander of the Ezo Republic Army, who had a conversation with her in the Goryokaku a few days ago, and walked out of the gate of Goryokaku with his head slightly bowed, and for some reason, finally sighed.

Then, without looking back, she said, "Everyone, go back." There's not much more we can do here. ”

She didn't go to Bentendaiba again to confirm if the Shinsengumi submitted. Today, it doesn't matter anymore.

After returning to Honmaru, Ryuzumi asked Ichijo to help her prepare a report on the events and details of the battle to be handed over to the government of the time, and then returned to her room.

After everyone who stayed behind in Honmaru finally got rid of the surprise and discomfort that Lord Inspector had returned from the battle and suddenly turned into a short hair style, the opinion of the government of the time was also brought by Kitsunosuke.

Because the teleportation array at the Houshan Shrine was originally considered a time bomb, Yanagizumi, as the inquisitor of the teleportation array, was appreciated by the government of the time for his timely response to the incident and his handling of the unprecedented development of the situation and the perfect preservation of history by extraordinary means.

As a reward, the government also made an exception and agreed to give her a few days off and not arrange any additional missions for her.

The Lady Inquisitor expressed full joy at this sudden extra holiday. And, at once, she happily drew up a series of plans for how to spend the holidays.

For example, there was a Honmaru cherry blossom viewing event. For example, she generously gave everyone a day off to go to the beach to play, but of course she didn't go herself, using the excuse "I can't swim and I'm afraid of tanning".

For example, I started a social activity of brushing up on favorability, visiting doors, friendships, and chatting with the neighbor Honmaru's inquisitors.

Although the profession of God Inquisitor is destined to bear some more responsibilities, pressures and risks than ordinary professionals, the guy who leads a second-hand Honmaru in the danger zone is a foreign-aided figure who has not been selected and hired by the government of the time, and he has the curious aura of some other colleagues; Liu Quan has been living so leisurely lately, and he just has time to manage his image and brush up on his favorability in front of other God Inquisitors.

By the way, get the information you want.

Before you know it, this quarter's Inquisitor Conference is coming up again.

Although the scenery set by Yanagisen's Honmaru is summer, in fact, the season of the outside world happens to be spring. The welfare of the government at the time has always been good, and it can fully attract all kinds of inquisitors to work hard for them, so this time the inquisitor conference is said to be held in a mountain villa, and the mountain behind the mountain villa is full of cherry blossom trees that are in full bloom.

This time, Liu Quan thought about the selection of the attendants who accompanied him for a long time.

Eventually, when the Divine Inquisitor's Assembly was held in the form of a "cherry blossom viewing meeting" on the cherry blossom hillside behind the villa, Ryuzumi saw the opportunity and tilted his head slightly towards the attendant standing behind him, and nodded with his chin to the person standing in a certain direction.

"Please help to trip up his attendants. Her voice was soft and cold.

"Because I have important questions, I have to ask him individually. ”

Her attendant didn't think too much about the somewhat strange order, and let out a familiar laugh.

"Hahaha. Then my old grandfather will try it reluctantly."

The target person pointed out by the female inquisitor is, of course, also a close attendant beside the inquisitor, and it is clear at a glance that he is not a simple person.

Of course it can be said. Because the attendant brought by the God Inquisitor is also close to the Three Days Moon Sect. It's just that the eyes of the three-day moon sect are deeper and more elusive.

When the Three Days Moon Sect approached the Fu Mourning God who was the so-called "shadow clone" with him, he smiled playfully in his heart.

It was planned from the beginning, Yukiba-kun.

Because she knew that the other party's chamberlain was such a tricky type, she deliberately skipped the Ichijo and Hasebe and others that she usually appointed as the chamberlain, and brought him here, just because no one knew how to deal with the other self better than him, right?

Moreover, being able to enslave his "other self" to the point where this ordinary posture is extremely cold and his aura is undisguised, the character and style of the God Inquisitor are not worth discussing.

Thinking so, the Three Moons did not let these thoughts and inferences affect him to complete the task given to him by the Female Divine Inquisitor.

Even at this moment, looking at Kiyohara Yukiha, who was half-hidden behind a huge cherry blossom tree and talking to the male inquisitor who was a little short in stature but had a very handsome face, the Three Moons seemed to understand something.

Her goal from the beginning was that person. Suddenly making a cheerful, lively, cordial, and approachable gesture, cultivating friendships and strengthening feelings with different inquisitors, all in order to inquire about the news from those people, with the intention of finding a way to open a breakthrough in the male inquisitor.

She was very interested in that person.

She wanted to capture that person.

She wanted something from that man.

Once the "Mibu Wolf" has its sights on which target, then it is impossible to give up hastily. They will investigate, they will bite, they will exhaust all means and methods, and they will get what they want from their target person, which is the method of the man named Toshizo Hijikata, and the clue to the Ikedaya incident can be seen in the fact that he tortured the Fluxida Kotaka Shuntaro and thus dug up the clues to the Ikedaya incident.

And Hijikata is the third year, and he taught her too well. There is no doubt that she would do the same thing.

Isn't she doing that under his gaze?

The Three Days Moon Sect lazily played in circles with the "other self" in front of him, delaying time and grabbing the other party's attention, of course, the other party didn't take any action, probably because his God Inquisitor didn't signal him to step forward to support while thinking quickly.

Of course, he wouldn't think that Kiyohara Yukiha would suddenly fall in love with a man who was a little shorter than himself. Then her motives are even more difficult to guess.

His instincts told him that something was wrong with what she was doing. I also know that she has never been a obedient and obedient child.

So, she's planning something

Ah, it was funny, he thought she was the kind of person who could see through it at a glance, so bright and frank that it didn't take much thought to see through it. As it turned out, she was a disobedient child who could do crazy things in a bright and frank way.

Now it seemed like she wanted to take some terrible risk and do something bad enough to make her a villain.

This person is incredible.
