Tatsuno Domain, in the middle of a certain mountain.

In the middle of what should be a deserted mountain, there is an abrupt three-story mansion.

Candlelight peeked through the windows of the hut.

The sound of conversation and laughter continued to sound from inside the cabin.

"Hahahaha! Drink! Drink! ”

"Can't you drink like that?"

"Hey! The wine is gone! Bring more wine! ”

"Hahahaha!"

……

On the top floor of this grand mansion, a group of people were having a lively banquet.

This magnificent mansion is the base camp of the Negishi family that has changed the hearts of the common people of the Tatsuno Domain.

The people who were holding the banquet on the top floor of this mansion were the leaders and main officials of the Negishi family.

The head of the Negishi clan likes to hold banquets in the evening.

Gathering all the main leaders of the family to have fun like tonight is just a common sight in this house.

The big-bellied middle-aged man who sat at the banquet scene was the head of the Negishi family, Naomasa Negishi.

Just as Negishi raised the flask in his hand and poured it into his mouth with a big gulp, anxious footsteps suddenly sounded outside the room.

Syllable.

The paper sliding door of the room was pulled open.

A young man kneeling by the door said in a tone with a bit of anxiety to Naomasa Negishi and the others in the room:

"Boss, boss! Something happened! Something happened to the casino in Kamoto Village! ”

The young man's loud shouting instantly stopped the conversation and laughter in the room.

Negishi frowned tightly and asked in a deep voice:

"What's going on?"

"The guards of the casino in Shanben Village, Hu Zhen, and Zhongpen have all been killed!"

As soon as the young man who had come to report the news finished speaking, the room resounded one after another with exclamations of surprise and disbelief, and the sound of cold air gasping.

"All killed?" Negishi's face darkened instantly, "Tell me in detail what happened!" ”

……

……

The young man who came to report the news was very articulate.

With just a few words, he repeated what happened in the casino in Shanben Village today to everyone in the room.

"I see...... Negishi said to himself, "have you been killed...... What does that man look like? ”

"I don't know yet!" The young man immediately replied, "There is no living room left at the scene, but I have asked my men to look for the gamblers who have been to the casino in the village today!" Those gamblers who are now should remember what the guy who killed us looked like! ”

“…… Top dog. A strong man sitting on Negishi's right hand side with a long scar on his face condensed and said, "Do you think this guy is a foreigner who doesn't understand the rules, or is it ...... Coming for revenge? ”

“…… I don't know. Negishi replied in a calm voice, "It doesn't matter if he's a foreigner who doesn't know the rules, or a fool who comes to seek revenge." Anyway - find him out for me first. ”

"Little ones!"

Negishi shouted in a neutral voice.

As soon as his shout fell, the subordinates sitting below him immediately put down their bowls of wine in their hands and sat up straight.

"Go down and tell everyone down there! Whenever I see a samurai with a saber face, I am cheered up! Be prepared! ”

"If you meet a samurai with a raw face, come and report to me immediately!"

"Yes!" All the subordinates in the room shouted in unison.

……

……

The next day, early in the morning—

Yesterday night, Ogata and Manomiya randomly found an inn.

Ogata and Manomiya each share a room - of course, Ogata also paid for the room with the help of Manomiya.

As soon as the sun had fully risen over the horizon, Ogata and Manomiya walked out of the inn one after the other.

"So-" Ogata turned his head and asked at Mamiya beside him, "what are we going to do today?" Where are you going to find information about the Negishi family? ”

"Well, of course, I'm going to the shops owned by the Negishi family to find information. But before that – let's go have breakfast. Do you have anything you'd like to eat? ”

"I can eat anything."

……

……

"Ogata, we're here."

Ogata and Mamiya, who had casually eaten some glutinous rice dumplings for breakfast, were standing not far in front of a slightly dilapidated wooden house in a relatively remote area.

After breakfast just now, Mamiya led Ogata straight towards the wooden house.

Looking at the slightly dilapidated wooden house in front of him, Ogata asked:

"Could this house be another casino of the Negishi family?"

"It's not." Mamiya immediately replied, "Although it is not a casino of the Negishi family, it is a different kind of shop opened by the Negishi family. ”

"Ogata-kun, do you know what this 'Yakuza' like the Negishi family is mainly based on to make money?"

"I don't know."

Mamiya stretched out three fingers.

"The main thing is to make money from gambling, women, and lending."

"And this house is the Yukuku opened by the Negishi family."

"Ogata-kun, we're going to split up in two ways today."

"You talk about Youkuo, I'll stay outside."

“………… Ha? ”

Ogata was silent for a long time before tilting his head and looking at Mamiya with a look of "Did I hear something wrong?"

"Sorry, I didn't seem to have made it clear......"

"Ogata-kun, we destroyed the Negishi family's casino in the village of Ogan yesterday, how do you think the boss of the Negishi family will react after hearing the news?"

"I will definitely be alert and remind the major shops below to pay more attention to the people with swords."

"What do you think would happen if a noodle warrior like you were to talk about the Yukoku set up by the Negishi family?"

"I think it's very likely that the managers of the Qinglou will go to their base camp to report the news."

"So it's up to you to use the bait."

"And I'll stay outside, tracking back to their base camp to report and win people."

“…… What if no one goes out to report? Ogata asked rhetorically.

"Then we can only be considered unlucky." Mamiya shrugged.

“…… Why am I bait, not you? ”

"Do you know how to track them?"

"Do you understand?"

"I used to learn a little bit of ninjutsu related to tracking in the Kai region."

"How much have you learned......

"Anyway—that's all there is to gossip."

With that, Mamiya took out a large judgment gold plug from his bosom and gave it to Ogata.

"Here, this money is for you, go ahead. I hid nearby and watched the building. ”

Ogata looked at the 1 big judgment given to him by the palace stopper, and his face was complicated.

Ogata had found out since yesterday that Mamiya seemed to be particularly rich.

When gambling in a casino, the big sentence is given.

When he went to the bathhouse to take a bath, the palace also casually threw out a large amount of money, which made the bathhouse shopkeeper work very hard to find the money.

And now he threw a big sentence and asked Ogata to go to Yukoku to find a woman......

Ogata looked at the large judgment in his hand, and then at Yuko, who was not far away.

"Ogata-kun, what's wrong?" Mamiya, who noticed Ogata's strangeness, asked Asaki Ogata.

“…… Don't laugh at me if I say it......"

"I ...... Never been to a place like this. Ogata hesitated, "What are you going to say and do when I go?" ”

【Japanese History Classroom Started~】

Yesterday, a lot of old critics asked me what the ancient Japanese called that kind of shop. I'll reply here in one piece.

In ancient times, the Japanese generally called that kind of shop "yuko" or "verandah", and called that kind of woman "yunu".

During the Edo period, there were three major legal tours that were licensed and protected by the government.

The three major tour outlines are: Shimabara in Kyoto, Shinmachi in Osaka, and Yoshiwara in Edo.

Among them, Yoshiwara in Edo is the most famous. You can always see this term in some Japanese dramas and Japanese comics.

I checked it yesterday and asked the professionals.

Neither You Kuo nor Qinglou will be harmonized.

So I've changed the previous chapter, and changed the "Qinglou" in the previous chapter back to "Youkuo".

From now on, this book will refer to such shops collectively as "Youkuo".
