Chapter Ninety-Five: Mizuno Suffers

However, in order to control the force of the police, the Meiji government in Japan stipulated that ordinary police officers were only allowed to carry knives and not guns, and that sergeants and above could carry guns. That's why the two Kagoshima policemen were so frightened when they saw Mizuno with a gun in their hands.

Seeing Mizuno get up to leave, the two policemen shouted, "Stop! ”

Mizuno didn't seem to hear their words, and walked forward on his own, the two policemen glanced at each other, and saw that Mizuno didn't mean to shoot with a gun, and the two policemen estimated that there might be no bullets in his gun, so they rushed forward boldly.

A policeman rushed behind Mizuno and struck Mizuno the back of the head with the hilt of his knife, knocking Mizuno to the ground.

Seeing Mizuno fall to the ground, another policeman also pounced and put the police knife in his hand on Mizuno's neck, while the previous policeman reached out and touched Mizuno's arms.

Mizuno knew what they were looking for, and he used his hands to protect his chest to prevent the other party from grabbing the pistol, but he was too thin to stop the two strong policemen, and soon, one of the policemen found the pistol and snatched it up.

"What a beautiful pistol! It's still made in Qianguo! Seeing this exquisite revolver, a policeman couldn't help but widen his eyes and praise loudly.

"Give it back to me!" Mizuno pounced to get the gun back, but was kicked to the ground by another policeman.

"Say! Who are you?! Where did this gun come from?! The two policemen asked with a loud shout as they kicked and hit Mizuno hard.

"Give me back the gun!" Mizuno didn't answer, but pounced again.

"Yaga!" The two policemen were furious, one waved his knife and smashed it on Mizuno's head again with the hilt, and the other kicked Mizuno in the waist.

Mizuno Zun, who was hit hard, fell to the ground all of a sudden, and blood flowed from his forehead, but he quickly got up again and pounced, this time he desperately grabbed the policeman's hand with the gun, trying to take the pistol back, but the policeman's strength was much greater than him, he couldn't break the policeman's wrist, and in a hurry, he actually bit it.

The policeman screamed loudly and let go of his hand, and the revolver fell to the ground, and Mizuno let go, pounced on the revolver like crazy, grabbed the gun and hugged it into his arms.

"Yaga Yalu!" The policeman looked at his bloody hand, annoyed, stepped forward and kicked Mizuno to the ground, another policeman also stepped forward and kicked hard, Mizuno fell to the ground again, but he did not resist, let the two policemen beat and scold.

The bitten policeman kicked Mizuno several times in succession, maybe he felt angry, or maybe the stubborn Mizuno was angry with him, he actually raised the police knife in his hand high and was about to cut it down at Mizuno.

At this moment, a stone flew from nowhere, and it hit the blade of the police knife "dang", and the police couldn't grasp it, and the police flew out of the police knife in their hands.

"Stop!" Then a scream came.

The two policemen turned around in surprise and saw five or six people standing not far away, all young men in their twenties, and the one in the front was tall, a head taller than the others, obviously the leader of these people.

Seeing that it was a group of young people, the police were about to shout and reprimand, but suddenly found that these young people were wearing black uniforms in the style of French military uniforms of the military academy, and knew that they were all students of the military academy, so they immediately stopped talking.

The group of young people walked slowly towards this side, and at this time, the two policemen recognized that the tallest young man led by them was actually Lin Yiqing, the chief instructor of the Marine Weapons School, and his face immediately showed respect.

Although Lin Yiqing was a native of Qianguo, since he taught at the military school, his ability was admired by everyone, and Lin Yiqing put forward a lot of pertinent suggestions for improving the teaching of the military school, and even gave a lot of useful suggestions for the reform of Satsuma's feudal administration, which quickly won the trust of the people, and the Kagoshima Prefecture Commander Oyama Tsunashi especially respected Lin Yiqing, and the police of Kagoshima County also respected him very much.

Although they hadn't seen Lin Yiqing's skills before, they had all heard that he was extremely skilled in martial arts, and even famous samurai like Shinohara Kunikan and Murata Shinhachi were not his opponents, and the flying stone shot down the police knife just now had already convinced them of the legend.

"Two police officers, may I ask what crime this person has committed and treat him like this?" Lin Yiqing came to Mizuno Zun, who was already dying, glanced at him, and turned to the policemen to ask.

"Lin Jun, this person was carrying a pistol, we suspected that he might be a thief, so we came forward to interrogate and investigate, and confiscated his pistol, but he snatched the gun back and bit me." The police showed Lin Yiqing the hand bitten by Mizuno Zun.

At this time, Mizuno Zun, who was huddled there, heard the police call out the title "Lin Jun", raised his head slightly, and the moment he saw Lin Yiqing, his whole body was shocked like an electric shock.

Lin Jun ...... I see you again...... It's not a dream, is it? Mizuno said with a choked voice.

Although Mizuno Zun's voice was not loud, Lin Yiqing still heard it very clearly, and he couldn't help but be very strange.

He carefully looked at the young beggar in front of him, searching in his memory, vaguely remembering something, but not very really.

Lin Jun ...... Don't you remember me? Seeing that Lin Yiqing didn't recognize himself, Mizuno Zun, who was bleeding all over his head, asked eagerly with a dry Chinese, "I...... I'm Mizuno Takashi! ”

Hearing the name "Mizuno Zun", Lin Yiqing's heart flashed like lightning.

Although he still doesn't know what happened between Mizuno and Hayashi Yoshizhe, this name is all too familiar to him who knows history unusually.

Mizuno was born in Owari, and his family was a samurai during the shogunate period. He studied in China to learn Chinese, and because of its fate, he served as a Japanese-Chinese translator (translator) in the "Peony Society Incident", and later wrote "The Private Record of the Conquest of Tibet" to advocate the conquest and development of Moss Bay. After the First Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese army occupied Mosan Bay, and he was appointed Minister by the Meiji Government to take full charge of the follow-up matters related to the takeover of Mosan Bay, and also served as the acting director of the Civil Affairs Bureau of Moswan. Later, he was promoted to Vice Minister (Vice Minister) of the Ministry of Colonization Affairs of Japan.

If it weren't for Mizuno Zun's self-registration number in dry language, it would be difficult for Lin Yiqing to connect the young beggar in front of him with the Mizuno Zun in history.
