Chapter 516: Searching
The winter nights are cold and quiet, the hibernation of small animals, the migration of migration.
Matsushima, located on the south coast of Rikuzen Province, is a group of 260 small islands of various sizes scattered around Matsushima Bay. Its unique geographical location and superior sea conditions have become an important place for the Tsugawa Navy.
In addition, Matsushima is one of the "Three Views of Japan" in the future, and there are four major views, namely "Spectacular Okakamori", "Likan Toyama", "Magnificent View of Mt. Tamon", and "Secluded Ogiya". In addition, there are eight major scenes, such as the sunset of Oshima, the evening bell of Zuogonji Temple, the return of the wild goose in Kasumigura, and the twilight smoke of Shiogama, all of which are very charming.
Whoa... A head emerges from a spot in the sea in Matsushima Bay. I saw him look back and forth, as if he had found a target, and dived into the water again...
After a while, he appeared next to the rocks of a small island. After looking around and seeing that there was no one, he silently climbed onto the island.
Under the moonlight, his true face was reflected, and his emaciated face and dark complexion showed that he was often active at the beach. This man was one of the Sanada warriors: Nezu Shihachi, who was born in Shinshu and traveled with his father as a painter when he was a child, and gained a lot of knowledge. After his father's death, he was forced to make ends meet and became a pirate.
Later, by chance, he became a retainer of the Sanada family. Probably because of his similar background, he has the strongest relationship with Yuri Kasanosuke, who was born as a bandit. This time he came out together and used his specialty, knowing water.
Nezu shook off the water droplets on his body, and in a moment he was going to explore this island at night, but he couldn't leave any traces.
Mochizuki Xue disappeared in Sendai, and here, they made many efforts to find the suspected place of captivity. In fact, they explored many suspected places of captivity along the way from Sendai to Matsushima, and this is already the third stop.
Originally, Hosokawa Nobumoto planned to wait for Mochizuki to return in Kashima, but he waited for many days, and even missed this year's New Year's banquet, and rumors began to spread in the collar that he died in a dead place.
Under the strong persuasion of the retainers, Hosokawa Nobumoto had no choice but to board the ship first and return to Gyeonggi.
"Hmm... It seems that there is no trace of human activity..."Nezu Shihachi probed around the island, and found no suspicious signs, so he prepared to leave here and go to the next island to explore.
You know, there are more than 260 small islands around, and there are more than 40 of them, excluding the ones that can hide people. Moreover, this is also the base of the Jinchuan Naval Army, and there are enemies everywhere, so he can only check two in a night, and it will take more than 20 days to complete the investigation of this suspected prison site.
Trample! When Nezu Shihachi returned, he accidentally kicked a small pebble.
"Huh?" In the faint moonlight, Nezu saw something buried in the sand, only a black-green part exposed.
Rustle... Nezu Shinhachi pushed aside the sand and stones, revealing the true face of Lushan, which was an ordinary seaweed.
"Cut, I thought it was something, but it turned out to be seaweed." Nezu Shihachi clapped his hands and stood up, seaweed is common here.
So he raised his legs and continued to walk towards the sea, and the more he walked, the more he felt that something was wrong, and the more he walked, the more he felt that something was wrong, and when he looked back, he felt that he was so far away from the seaweed.
"It's strange, can seagrass go up that far? Judging by the tides here, the sea should not be able to submerge there, at least not in the last few days. And..."Puzzled, Nezu Shinhachi came back again, picked up the seaweed with his hand and looked at it carefully.
"At such a distance... It must have been brought by man. But... What is the situation based on... Will you bring the seaweed? Nezu couldn't figure out how this unusual thing could have happened.
"Forget it, why don't you go and demonstrate." With that, Nezu Shihachi ran to the shore and pretended to be someone who had just come ashore.
"No, no, if he was walking, and his shoes were stained with seaweed on the shore, he would not have gone so far to take him off. And I looked around closely, and there was no sign of a ship coming ashore at all. Nezu stayed here for a long time, and if it didn't work, he had to give up.
"Huh? No ships ashore? That is, it is possible... Anchor the boat in the sea close to the shore. And then... Swim over... Or wading ashore! Nezu Shihachi suddenly had an idea, and then plopped and entered the sea.
"Okay, this position is just waist high, so let's give it a try." Nezu Shinhachi came to the waist-high sea and began to walk the shore.
Wow... With a few faint sounds, a piece of seaweed wrapped around his leg. When he comes ashore, if he doesn't take the seaweed out of the place immediately, he can go as far as he wants with it.
"I see, it must be so, that the people who come ashore do not notice that there is seaweed pinned to their legs or waists. When he traveled here, he found it, or his companions found it, so he took the seaweed and threw it here! "The more he analyzed, the more excited he became, which meant that the island was very suspicious. Under normal circumstances, there are ships that do not come ashore and have to swim from the sea? There must be a secret behind it!
"Look closer." So, Nezu Shinhachi once again explored the island.
But... Still nothing.
"Strange, could it be that I'm wrong?" Nezu Shihachi lowered his head and pondered, he thought that he had found something unusual, and he was unwilling to leave like this.
"Since I can't find it... That's... Let him show himself! Nezu smiled wickedly and thought about it.
He came to the middle of the island and began to shout to it: "There is a great flood! It's a big flood! Run! According to his thoughts, even if it is hidden, it can only be inside these island stones, because he has not been able to find the entrance.
"It's a big flood! Run for your life! "The sound surrounds this island, and his approach is dangerous and extremely easy to expose. But there are not many things to worry about, and the longer the time drags on, the less likely it is for them to find Mochizuki Yuki.
After shouting a few times, Nezu Shihachi hid in a corner, he seemed to hear something just now, and stared eagerly at the mountain rock, waiting for the scene he hoped for.
Unfortunately, he was disappointed, and the mountain stone did not open.
However, the ground was lifted with a lid lifted, and from the inside... A head poked out. At this time, the head was looking around, strange that the sea water had not submerged, strange who was shouting just now.
"It's done..."Nezu Shinhachi, who was hiding in the shadows, happened to see this scene and smiled excitedly. Still struggling with the latest chapter you can't find?
