047 Ikedaya(2)
Takanomiya wants to know more.
By threatening, inducing, or cultivating cronies, and then let them spread them into areas they would otherwise be out of reach by the power of the Takanomiya family as a large merchant union.
Ever since she was sensible, she has been doing this kind of thing, consciously or unconsciously.
"It's sleepy." Beloved rubbed her sour eyes and said so.
"You don't look like a tired person right now." Kyoichi knew the girl well, she was now walking briskly, her eyes were shining, and it was clear that her heart was pounding.
"You seem to be very happy."
The beloved couldn't suppress the smile, and his breath trembled without denying it.
"I'm really tired, but I'm very excited."
Since she was able to return alive from Katsura Kogoro, it means that her goal has been achieved. Why did he make such a decisive decision, and even his beloved himself couldn't help but be a little surprised when he realized this.
As Kyoichi said, she is very happy now.
"You've changed a lot since you met Asakura."
"Oh?"
"You were a sleeping lion, and now you're awake." Kyoichi had never seen his beloved so excited, "Once upon a time, no matter what you did, you were bored. ”
In the early morning, only the footsteps of the two echoed in the streets.
"Nanami Asakura, I want to save her."
Beloved wants to reach out to the orphans of the Asakura family.
"A person like her originally had the qualifications to make the heavens jealous, a veritable pride of the sky, as long as she was willing, maybe it would not be difficult for her to change this country, as long as she was willing, the world would remember her name."
"......" Kyoichi knew that Nanami's swordsmanship was superb, and he was confident that his swordsmanship was not inferior to that of contemporary masters, but that girl was still comfortable with him.
"Now, the heavens and men are trapped in the mortal dust."
The girl walking in front of her froze in her steps, and her heart ached as she said this, so much so that it became difficult to breathe for a moment.
"Asakura Nanami slept too deeply......"
"Miss, I don't think she's asleep." Kyoichi said, "God just gave the talent to a mortal." ”
A mortal.
A mortal who just wants to spend his life in peace and security.
“……”
Like a person waking up from a dream, her beloved smile faded, she stiffly turned her head and stared straight into Kyoichi's eyes, and only after a long time did she respond, "Do I allow it?" ”
"Have I allowed her to be mortal?"
"Am I allowing her to waste everything she has?"
Eagle no Palace's beloved, what is she afraid of? A young but experienced girl who has traveled so far and so long in this world alone, who has traveled all over Japan and overseas, is now trembling with her eyes as if she is afraid of losing something.
"I'll cut it for her." After saying that, she turned around and continued to walk forward, without the slightest confusion.
"Kyoichi, remember, we will make history."
"Hmm."
"The history of the Shinsengumi and the Nagasu Restoration School was created in this Kyoto Castle, and it was an event that will be recorded in the annals of history, and the name Nanami Asakura will be recorded together."
Everyone, enjoy it.
This long-lost pleasure.
……
……
Lately, nothing has happened.
The Shinsengumi didn't just rely on the information network of Takanomiya, Isamu Kondo would never be the kind of leader who would completely put the future of the Shinsengumi in the hands of others, what to do had his own considerations, in addition to Takanomiya, Kondo had other sources of information.
The actions of several teams of the Shinsengumi under his command are also very hidden, and some of them have not even been revealed to the cooperative Eagle No Palace.
Trust should not be in such an occasion.
Nanami on patrol also knows this, but it doesn't matter, now she just needs to fulfill her obligations.
Even if it is calm before the storm, as long as you are calm, there is no problem.
"Mr. Asakura, there seems to be someone there."
In the team, everyone often calls him Mr. out of respect for Qishi.
Qishi looked in the direction he pointed, and there was a group of men in black practice uniforms, their shapes and physique were strange, and the leader was a sturdy old man, although he was old, his spirit was not down, this kind of momentum was similar to the monk she had once met, and he was obviously a kung fu master who should not be underestimated.
It is impossible for such a group of people to walk down the street without being conspicuous.
"Are you going to stop and ask? There was no such team in Kyoto before. ”
"......," Qishi thought for half a minute and nodded.
"I'll go by myself, and you will stay for the time being."
With that, she walked in the direction of the men and stopped their way.
"A member of the Shinsengumi Ichiban team, Nanami Asakura, why are you here?"
"Shinsengumi?" The old man in the lead said, "Recently, it has been in the limelight, and the No. 1 slashing group in Kyoto ......"
"Slashing the group? It seems that our Shinsengumi don't have a very good reputation. ”
"In this world, being the best in Kyoto is already the highest praise." The old man didn't seem to look down on Qishi as just a woman, and he didn't show the slightest anger and dissatisfaction with her obstruction.
"Well, to make a long story short, please come up with something that can prove your identity, the recent chaos in Kyoto, if you can't prove your identity, then you can only ask for ......"
Before he finished speaking, suddenly, a sharp grasp came out from behind the old man and went straight to Qishi's heart.
“…… I can only ask you to go back. ”
Nanami easily blocked the sudden blow with the scabbard, but the iron scabbard was actually cracked by the claw.
"Stop!" The old man shouted angrily, and the attacker retreated behind him to stop making a sound, and she saw the man's appearance clearly, it was a deformed man with an arm length that was about to touch the ground, with a strange hood that made it impossible to see his face, but the cold aura it exuded was really uncomfortable for others.
"We are martial arts practitioners who came to kill the executioner at the invitation of the Tokugawa shogunate, and you can call us Dark Warrior."
The old man handed Nanami a letter with the seal of the shogunate, but this salvation was enough to prove his identity.
"Then it's my rudeness."
"Farewell... I have to say that the skills of the Shinsengumi are indeed extraordinary. "That catch just now was the one who took her life. The old man did not stop his subordinates from doing it, how could he not understand what the seven truths were for.
"Excuse me, who are you talking about the executioner?"
The head of the dark martial arts said indifferently
"Executioner, Scarlet Village draws a knife and fasts, we are here to take his head."
