Chapter 254: The Law of Lockers
"Compassion?"
Yichun looked sneering.
"It's boring."
"It seems that you and I are really not all the way."
"It's a shame."
"After seeing that you and I are both executioners who have killed countless people, I thought that maybe I could become friends with you."
"Looks unlikely."
With that, Yichun slowly lowered the center of gravity of his body and rearranged his fighting posture.
"You're out of a knife now, how long can you last with only one knife left?!"
Although he couldn't kill the little girl just now to vent his anger, it made Yichun a little regretful.
But the excitement of successfully destroying Ogata's knife made up for it.
Destroying one of Ogata's knives is equivalent to breaking Ogata's arm, which is hard not to get excited.
Although he only had a knife left in his hand, Ogata had always looked calm from beginning to end, as if he was not worried about the impact of missing a knife on his strength.
Before Yichun could attack, he clenched the only remaining knife in his palm with both hands and took the initiative to kill Yichun.
……
……
The mansion of Konnosuke, the second floor, storeroom.
At this time, the storage room has been turned into a mess by Amachi and others.
Tatami mats are covered with a large number of buckets taken out of the lockers, and the cabinets contain all kinds of strange things.
"Hey!" Amachi couldn't help but shout at the maid beside him who had worked at the Konnosuke family for many years, "Don't you really know the rules of Konnosuke's way of putting things in this storage room?" ”
This is already the number of times Amachi has asked the maid this question.
And the maid didn't know how many times she responded to Amachi with the same answer.
"I really don't know." The maid shook her head with a bitter face, "I'm just a maid who specializes in all kinds of chores and tiring work, how can I know the law of Kinnosuke-sama who puts things in this storage room!" ”
"Tsk......" Amachi punched the locker in front of him with a look of chagrin.
Whether it was Amachi, the maid or others who had been pulled by Amachi to help, they all worked very hard to find each cabinet and bucket in this storage room one by one.
But - there are too many cabinets in this storage room.
There are 3 large lockers that cling to the wall, and the total number of barrels in the 3 lockers is more than 200.
Such a huge amount makes people feel numb when they look at it.
Although Amachi and the others had been rummaging through the buckets without hesitation, they had only pulled out less than half of the buckets so far—and none of them contained knives.
When rummaging in this pile of cabinets and barrels to find the location of Da Shi Tian and Da Ziyi, there are also frequent situations of all kinds of disgusting people.
For example, just now, a male villager who had been brought in by Amachi to help found a long strip of white cloth wrapped in layers of white cloth from a cupboard, which looked like a sword.
After disassembling it in a hurry, I found that it was just a bamboo pole with a length similar to that of a knife.
Amachi took two steps back, looking anxiously at the three large lockers around him that had not been pulled out of the three large lockers.
Pull out the lockers one by one like this, and by the time Daishuni and Daiji find out, Ogata may have been hacked to death by Kazumi.
Syllable!
Amachi raised his left hand and slapped his left cheek hard.
Amachi didn't show any mercy to her subordinates, and after receiving this slap from herself, her left cheek turned red directly, and there was a tingling sensation.
But thanks to the stinging sensation, Amachi felt a little more sober.
The brain, which was originally a little chaotic due to anxiety, has become a little clearer because of this.
After trying to keep himself calm through pain, Amachi closed his eyes.
Remembering all the information he knew about this storage room.
The first thing that came to Amachi's mind was what the maid had told her—everything in this storage room was placed in the various cabinets according to a certain pattern by the near nosuke.
After recalling what the maid had told her, Amachi recalled the scene when Konnosuke took her and Ogata here tonight to see Kazuyo and Kazu's prescription for Konnosuke.
At that time, Konnosuke, who had led her and Ogata into the storage room, immediately found the two prescriptions among the more than 200 cabinets without any hesitation—which was enough to prove that the maid was right.
Everything in this storage room is really arranged according to a certain pattern, and only in this way can Konnosuke find the 2 prescriptions that have been stored for many years in such a quick time.
In the end, Amachi recalled what Sokai had told them about Konnosuke's evaluation - "Konnosuke is good at everything, but unfortunately there is a small problem, that is, he likes to be neat very much." When putting things away, they like to arrange them according to a specific pattern. ”
With a look of chagrin, Amachi raised his hand and grabbed his hair.
All the information known so far points to the same fact - as long as you find the law of near-no-suke putting things, you can quickly find the location of Da Shi Tian and Da Zi Zi.
However, this is also the biggest difficulty.
Who knows what the law is for him to put things in the near nosuke?
Konnosuke, the only one who knows this pattern, is still unconscious......
Opening his eyes, Amachi once again slammed into the locker in front of him with a look of chagrin.
Just then—just as Amachi slammed her fist into the locker in front of her, she suddenly noticed two things at her feet.
It's a couple of locks and a couple of boxes of nails.
Looking at the locks and the boxes of nails at his feet, Amachi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Amachi was impressed by both of these things.
Because it's something she'd just pulled out of two adjacent barrels.
Seeing that there were locks and nails in the two buckets, Amachi casually poured out the two items and threw them aside.
Looking at the locks and the boxes of nails at his feet, Amachi couldn't help but complain in his heart:
- There's really everything in these buckets......
- Does that Konnosuke have a habit of collecting miscellaneous items...... You can see all sorts of clutter in these buckets......
- And how the hell does this Konnosuke put things on......
- Why are locks and nails placed in adjacent cabinets...... Well?
As soon as this complaint fell in Amachi's heart, her pupils shrank uncontrollably.
Because she had just suddenly noticed that there was a special connection between the lock and the nail.
- ......?!
Holding on to the assumption that had just popped into his mind, Amachi quickly opened another bucket adjacent to the bucket with the lock and the nail in it.
Inside this cabinet was a necklace made of animal teeth.
After Ah Machi took out this necklace, the maid on the side hurriedly introduced to Ah Machi:
"This is the Ezo necklace that Kinnosuke-sama bought a few years ago."
Amachi ignored the maid's introduction, and muttered softly:
"Necklace ......"
After tossing the necklace aside in his hand, Amachi pulled open the bucket on the top floor of the bucket where the necklace was placed.
Inside the cabinet on the upper floor, there are several sets of keys.
"Key ......"
Amachi muttered softly as he pulled open the cabinet next to him.
There is a mirror in the cabinet next to it.
"Mirror ......"
Pull open the bucket above the mirror - there are a few small jars inside.
Unscrewed the jars and sniffed inside—it was lamp oil.
"Lamp oil ......!"
A little excitement slowly appeared in his eyes, and he hurriedly opened the cabinet next to the lamp oil.
Inside the cabinet next to the lamp oil, there are several stacks of rice paper.
Looking at the rice paper contained in the newly opened cupboard, several dazzling rays of light burst out from the bottom of Amachi's eyes.
"Found it!"
Excitement swept through Amachi's heart, and Amachi couldn't help but shout.
……
……
Konnosuke's Mansion, 3rd Floor——
"Hah...... Ha...... Ha...... Ha...... Ha...... Ha ......"
"Hah...... Ha...... Ha...... Ha ......"
Whether it's Ogata or Kunosuke, both of them are now panting.
Even if there is only one knife left, Ogata's combat power has not been greatly reduced, and when parrying Ichsumi's attack, it will indeed become a lot more difficult because of this, but he can still rely on skills such as stepping to fight back and forth with Ichsumi.
The current battle situation between the two can be described in one word, that is-stalemate.
Ogata couldn't find a chance to kill Kazujun for a while.
And Ichijun also couldn't find a chance to kill Ogata.
The two maintained a stalemate like this, looking for an opportunity to change the stalemate in one breath.
“…… You guy...... It's a lot of trouble......"
Yichun's face at this time is a little unqualified to use the word "ugly" to describe it.
The constant sharp pain from all over his body, and the anxiety of not being able to kill Ogata for a long time, made Ichimazu's face more and more heavy and ugly.
"Hey, boy!"
Ichijun shouted rudely as he slowly raised the large naginata knife in his hand to the upper right of his own.
Looking at Ichikazu's posture, Ogata's eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.
Ichikazu's posture is quite familiar to Ogata.
It is the starting style of the "spinning top".
"I won't make any reservations this time." Yichun said in a deep voice, "I will use all the 13 consecutive slashes of the 'spinning top', if there is a kind, just take my move!" ”
Yichun has made up his mind - to bet the victory on his strongest killer move.
The two of them were now in the most spacious place on the third floor, and it was convenient for Yijun to use his strongest killing move.
At the same time, the reason why Izumi plans to rely on the "spinning top" to decide the winner is also to bully Ogata, who is about to scrap the knife in his hand.
Ichichun is sure: this bastard in front of him will definitely break due to being overwhelmed when he takes the second or third knife of his "spinning top".
And Ogata saw that the starting hand of Ichsumi who had already posed for the "spinning top" gradually climbed his cheeks.
The "Gyro" has an extremely large attack range and is quite fast.
It's not easy to avoid them all.
As long as there is a trace of carelessness, it will end up being cut in half.
For the "Gyro", the safest way to defend is to hard-catch all of his slashes.
However, with the broken knife in his hand, which was already full of holes, Ogata did not have the confidence to take all of Isseru's slashes......
Just when Ogata's expression was solemn, thinking about how to deal with the enemy-
"Ah Yi!"
A shout suddenly came from the staircase in the distance.
"...... Amachi?"
Ogata followed the prestige and looked at Amachi who was limping towards him as he walked through the staircase.
The reason why Ogata looked stunned was partly because Amachi, who was supposed to be hiding in a safe place, actually appeared in front of him at this time.
On the other hand, it was because Amachi was holding 2 knives in his arms at this time.
A knife is different from a wedge.
The two knives are composed of blue and gold from the handle to the blade and then to the scabbard.
Whether it is a knife or a scabbard, it is engraved with gorgeous patterns, and the appearance is very beautiful.
For the sudden appearance of Amachi, Yichun was also full of astonishment.
But after being stunned, a fierce light immediately burst into his eyes.
Even a fool can see what Amachi is going to do with two knives.
"Don't think!"
Ichikazune let out a loud roar as she hurried towards Amachi, intending to stop Amachi from handing over the knife in her arms to Ogata.
And Ogata hurried towards Amachi with an anxious look on his face after seeing Ichsumi rushing towards Amachi.
As for Amachi - a little cunning flashed across her face when she saw Ichichi Jun rushing towards her.
Because—she had already guessed that Ichsumi would do this.
"Ah Yi! Catch! ”
With a flick of his arm, Amachi threw the two knives in his hand towards Ogata.
"What?!" After letting out a low cry of disbelief, Ichusun hurriedly stopped.
Now there is no point in chasing down Amachi.
Amachi threw very accurately, which may also have something to do with her strong shooting skills.
The two knives flew to the highest point in mid-air, and then slowly fell.
And the location where it landed is exactly where Ogata is located.
Ogata was stunned for a moment when he saw Amachi suddenly throw the two knives at him.
Then he reacted quickly, threw the broken knife in his hand to the side casually, and then jumped hard, jumping towards the two knives that were falling towards him.
Kazujun wasn't going to just sit back and watch Ogata get a new knife.
It's too late to hunt down Ogata now.
Therefore, Ichijun grabbed the screen that had been cut in half right at his feet and threw it at the two knives that were falling.
Through this half screen, knock the two knives in mid-air apart and prevent Ogata from holding the knife - this is Kazujun.
Ogata's take-off and Ichijun's throw of the half of the screen took place at about the same time.
And the speed of the two knives leaning towards the mid-air is almost the same.
Just when Ogata, Half Screen, and the two knives collided in mid-air at about the same time—
Temple!
The sound of paper products being shredded reached the ears of everyone in the venue.
After the sound fell, the sound of Ogata landing was followed.
and - the sound of fragments of a screen falling to the ground as they were cut into four pieces.
The two blue and gold knives were both inserted into Ogata's left waist.
The wakicha is still inserted in the scabbard, and the knife is held in the hand.
The dazzling light reflected by the blade became one of the few but the most dazzling lights in the field at this time.
"Thank you, Amachi. Specially for me...... I sent these 2 knives! ”
Ogata swung the knife he was holding in his right hand to the right.
The wind pressure from the swing of the blade blew away the dust on the ground on Ogata's right, and at the same time, it also blew the haori on Ogata's body, causing a hunting sound.
