It's not dawn, Qishi got up and made the bed and went out, it's not autumn and winter, it's late in autumn and winter, it's summer, and the people of the new selection group have to get up earlier, because a group of people came back at night, so another group of people have to hand over to them, this kind of handover can't be done in the daytime, and it is unlucky to let the people around the streets and alleys see blood and smell the fishy smell during the day.

The wolves of the Shinsengumi hurriedly approached the courtyard from the outside, dragging their slightly tired bodies, and the wisps of dead souls saved by the blood of the living people that had been wiped off on their knives.

Soji Okita and Saito are the ones who take the lead, and when they come back, they just bump into Nanami who is waiting, and since he resigned from his night mission, Nanami has been in charge of patrol duties during the day.

There aren't many opportunities to kill during the day.

Her current knife is hidden in the sheath to raise the sharpness, and Nanami has a hunch that soon, Asakiri and Kaga Kiyomitsu will have a real chance to come out of the sheath, and I am afraid that it will also be the last time Nanami will drink blood.

"How?"

Qishi asked the general director, she knew that he was on a mission last night.

"Well, everything is going well, and nothing is going well."

"Well, then, go and rest."

There is really nothing to doubt about the strength of the head office, if he makes a move, plus the strength is not inferior to his Saito Ichi, it is estimated that there is nothing that cannot be solved, and it is redundant for the seven real questions.

In other words, she would never say much about this before, but recently she didn't understand whether it was intuition or other reasons, and she felt that the attitude of the head office was strange, so after hesitation, she would casually ask something to test the other party.

She was about to leave, to live a free life, like her master. Nanami wants to learn some medical skills and become a doctor, and then, if he has the opportunity in the future, he will go to China with Yuuka, and then go overseas to live...... Many, many, many things, Qishi has never dreamed so much.

And these dreams, as long as they get through this difficulty, are not unrealizable.

In the new selection group, there are some people who can't let go of Qishi in the end, and there is only the general director.

"Be careful, too."

The moment she heard the other party say this, she couldn't help but be in a trance, and found that the person in front of her seemed to be suddenly stranger, and then gradually coincided with something.

The Director-General seems to have changed.

"Yes."

Today's General Directorate is a little different from the past, but there are some similarities with the past General Directorate, the stagnant atmosphere has disappeared, and he seems to be able to experience a long-lost emotion by this man's side.

The admiration for that calm and calm swordsman has always been like seeing him for the first time when he was a child.

My intuition is subtle and keen, and the seven realities are self-deprecating, maybe this is the so-called woman's intuition.

"That's right, Asakura."

I was about to leave, but I was stopped again, and it seemed that the head office remembered something and wanted to tell her.

"You wanted Yuuka to stay in the Shinsengumi for her safety."

"Well, indeed."

This is the original intention, at that time, the choice made by Qishi, who was not able to face his feelings, was to let the head secretary take care of Yuuka, she believed that no matter what, with the ability of the head office, she could protect Yuuka, and it was difficult to say that she was in that state at that time.

"There was a disturbance about seeing the Hui group before, and Yuuka almost died." "Now that the situation is becoming more and more urgent day by day, it is only a matter of time before it erupts, and Kyoto is no longer safe," the director-general said. ”

“……”

"Do you remember, the man who wrote the book in person, the man who came to our dojo with Qishi?"

"Mr. Kawamoto? I still remember him, and I have seen his work later. "The guy who strayed into his house and was almost killed by himself, and finally stood up for his own village, such a guy really can't be forgotten. At least they won't forget each other's names.

"I wrote to him, now that he has a family in Nagasaki, and Yuka is also from Nagasaki, I want him to take care of Yuka for the time being, and then take Yuka away after the matter on your side is settled? Mr. Kawamoto also remembers you, and when you go, he will recognize you and let you and Yuka leave. ”

As the head secretary said, Kyoto is in the midst of an eventful time, and the Shinsengumi are on the cusp.

"Drop off the checkout?"

This suggestion is reasonable.

"Mr. Kawamoto's Uchiko is a gentle woman, and she will take good care of Yuuka and make sure it is complete when you go." Seeing that Qishi was a little difficult to choose, the general director added.

"Well, I think so." The Director-General's proposal was reasonable, and she agreed very much, it was really unsafe for a weak woman like Yuuka to stay with someone like them now, and she was afraid that there would be an accident.

"When I go back today, I'll ask her and then decide."

"That's fine, let's decide as soon as possible, and we can arrange for people to come out."

"Thank you, Director-General."

"......" The general secretary nodded and accepted Nanami's thanks, and then without further delay, he stepped back with Saito.

I'm going to ask Yuuka tonight, and if it's decided, I won't delay, and I'll ask the head office to arrange this tomorrow.

Thinking about this in his heart, Qishi ran into two other acquaintances not long after he went out.

It's the beloved and Kyoichi, the beloved is wearing a dress, her face is pale, and she looks very sleepy, but even if she is weak after seeing the seven realities, it cheers her up, and Kyoichi is like a Buddha as always, but the Buddha will not guard people, he is still like the king of Ming named "Eagle Palace Kyoichi".

"I followed the heat." The beloved seemed to be very happy, she came to the front of Qishi and said, "And then I can actually see that there is indeed a fate between you and me." ”

"Is it following the heat? Still following the smell of the dead...... "Qishi was also surprised when he saw his beloved" I threatened to kill you last time, and you didn't seem to take my words to heart. ”

"There are dealings with each other." She wanted to sit down and talk with Qishi for a while, but after all, Qishi was not the only one here, and there were still a lot of people in the Ichiban team who followed her, so she couldn't talk more. So the beloved only said two words to her concisely, like greetings and advice.

"The last time we had a conversation at the teahouse, I was very out of shape, but Asakura is always very comfortable."

She said, "I feel like you've changed a little bit and your eyes are more determined." ”

"How so?"

"It's good to be firm, I'm not firm enough." Beloved patted Kyoichi and motioned for him to go back first, and he would arrive later.

"Only those who know what to do will be firm."

"Yes."

It's really amazing, there is always a voice in Qishi's heart saying to her, centrifugal love stay away, stay away from this woman who has appeared in front of her with a different face every time, she is a neurotic person, and she can strategize and be good at learning, which can be called perfect, but Qishi can't see through what Xinai really wants to do, and she can't figure it out. So through the words of his beloved, Qishi asked her.

"So, what do you want to do, I think you are also firm."

"No, I don't understand, but I'm looking."

"Looking for ......"

It's time for Shichishi to go.

"I'm sleepy, I talked about some business yesterday and it was late, so I'll go back first, and then I'll be back to Edo soon."

"It's good to go back."

"It's chaotic here, and there's something to do at home."

Laughing belovedly, Qishi didn't understand why she suddenly laughed, no one amplified her voice in the early morning, and her sudden laughter was very harsh.

"I'm leaving, be careful."

She's gone.

didn't look back, leaving Qishi with her petite back.

The beloved of the Eagle Palace disappeared in the rising sun, and the seven eyes sent her away, and the woman disappeared at the mouth of the alley, and then she was never seen again.

Nanami Asakura never saw her again.
