Uesugi Kiyoshi blinked, as if it was all expected.

His senses were extremely acute, and the person who had just spoken had been standing at the door for at least five minutes, and if it were for Miyagawa Yong's reinforcements, he wouldn't be so bearable.

Based on what he said, it can be basically concluded that this is a Shinsengumi executive.

"Mizu wolf" is actually a derogatory name, the Shinsengumi is a group of swordsman killers at the end of the Edo period, and the most they do is to assassinate, in the fear of the Shinsengumi, "Mibu wolf" is used to describe their cold-blooded ruthlessness, this nickname fell on the head of the Shinsengumi, in fact, they themselves call themselves "Mibu Shishi", but this title is in modern times, and not many people care anymore.

The person who just spoke seemed to be a "particular person" who cared about this kind of thing.

After he spoke up, the Shinsengumi swordsmen, who had originally said everything about Miyagawa Isamu's orders, showed hesitation and entanglement in their eyes.

Isamu Miyagawa frowned.

“...”

"Ito, is it time for infighting?"

He said this gloomily.

Walking in was a beautiful man dressed in Shinsengumi Haori.

He looks like he is in his twenties, but his calm momentum makes people involuntarily feel that he is not so young, his face is white and beardless, his sword eyebrows and starry eyes, no matter what, his appearance can be regarded as capable of fighting.

It is in stark contrast to the sloppy Isamu Miyagawa.

Hearing Isamu Miyagawa's words, the beautiful man known as Ito smiled coldly and strode in front of Isamu Miyagawa.

"Infighting? If I don't stop you, won't the elite of the Shinsengumi lose most of it here? ”

"You bastard, that's how you led the Shinsengumi to grow?"

"If you are so reckless, I am worthy of this [sincerity] word on Yuori?!"

This handsome old guy came up with a fierce voice, and he went toe-for-tat with Miyagawa Yong, and scolded him with his head and face.

Uesugi Kiyoshi probably knows who he is.

Imperial Tomb, Staff Officer, Ito.

At the end of the Edo period, the general staff of the Shinsengumi, Kotaro Ito.

The person in front of him is at least the one who connects his heroic soul, and this can't be wrong.

After knowing this relationship, Uesugi Kiyoya can probably understand why this Mr. Ito didn't help Miyagawa Isamu speak - this staff officer, in history, and Kondo Isamu are political enemies.

It is rumored that Ito Koshitaro was assassinated in the first place, and it was the Shinsengumi who did it.

In fact, the situation at the end of the Edo period was quite complicated, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain it for a while and a half, although Ito Koshitaro and Isamu Kondo both belong to the Shinsengumi, but they have different political views and are considered mortal enemies.

Isamu Kondo was a "Sashogun" through and through, and his allegiance was to the shogunate.

Ito Kokotaro is a "royal faction", he is loyal to the emperor, and in the later period, he set up his own door and established the "Imperial Tomb Guard", and the Shinsengumi are not all the way.

However, at least he used to be the general staff of the Shinsengumi, and this thing is true.

"If you want to die, you go by yourself, don't pull the righteous people who have been gathered by the Shinsengumi with great difficulty, the meaning of their existence is not consumed by you."

"If someone finds you for the you did, you will bear the consequences."

"Don't let Mibu pay for your mistakes!"

Uesugi Kiyoshi faintly saw that the contradiction between this Ito staff officer and Chief Miyagawa did not seem to be fake, and it was somewhat difficult to reconcile.

If there is a seemingly killing machine, it can't be faked.

If it weren't for the superficial relationship between comrades, even if these two people drew their swords and fought, Uesugi Kiyoshi would not be surprised.

This person seems to be defending himself, and Uesugi Kiyoshi is a little inexplicable.

It didn't take long for his doubts to fade away, though.

After unceremoniously scolding Miyagawa Isamu a few words, Staff Officer Ito turned his head to look at Uesugi Kiyoshi, his eyebrows became smiling, and he was very kind.

"Uesugi-kun, contemptible Ito Daizo, who was a staff officer of the Shinsengumi at the time, please allow me to apologize to you - what Isamu Miyagawa did is not representative of the entire Shinsengumi, please understand this."

Uesugi Kiyoshi blinked, and suddenly realized.

Daizo Ito.

It's a name he knows!

When Hidekawa Umizumi went out to attend a gathering of the Residence Meeting, he once gave Uesugi Kiyoshi a note.

On the note were two phone numbers.

It is said that black and white are all-inclusive, if there is something, just contact him directly, and these two people will inevitably stand up for him.

Among them, the underworld is the leader of the Tokyo Kowloon Club, the Ninth Dragon Heart.

Hakumichi is the head of the Kyoto Police Headquarters, with the rank of police inspector, and is one of only 20 police inspectors in Japan - Ito Daizo!

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't call, but he remembered the man's name well.

The person that Master trusts so much should not be an outsider.

Sure enough, Ito Daizo patted Uesugi Kiyoshi on the shoulder and smiled brightly.

"I've been here for a long time, I've been watching outside for a while, Uesugi-kun is really good, although Miyagawa doesn't turn his brain, he's a stubborn bastard, but he can't fake his skills, and there are few people in Kyoto who can suppress him."

"It's worthy of being a close disciple of Mr. Shangizumi, and his qualifications are extraordinary, his old man once sent me a newsletter, saying that he had something important to go out and asked me to help take care of you, but unfortunately I am busy with affairs, and Kyoto is far away from Tokyo, so I haven't seen you for so long, I'm really ashamed."

"Fortunately, we finally met now."

"Uesugi-kun, just call me as soon as possible for this kind of thing in the future, you are a disciple of Kamizumi-sensei, I will call you a junior brother - as long as I am alive, there is no one in this Kyoto who can bully my junior brother."

"The total length of the Shinsengumi... Not at all! ”

When Ito Daizo looked at Isamu Miyagawa again, his eyes were already full of coldness, as if he was facing a life-and-death enemy.

It doesn't look like it's entirely because of Uesugi Kiyoshi.

"Uesugi, Isamu Miyagawa has a police rank on him, he is still the head of the Shinsengumi, and he is the guest of the cabinet minister, so you can't be impulsive."

"You can kill him if you want, but, here, at this time, no."

"Give me some thin noodles and stop for now."

Uesugi Kiyoshi typically eats soft rather than hard, because of Umizumi Hidekawa, he originally had a good impression of Ito Daizo, but when he heard this, he didn't immediately refute it.

On the contrary, Ito Daizo was afraid that he would misunderstand, so he immediately said: "It's okay, you want to kill him, and I want to kill him too." ”

"Because of him, the entire Shinsengumi is smoky, his tolerance, has made too many mistakes, these madmen of the Sashoku faction are essentially cold-blooded and ruthless wolves!"

"If you can trust me, I'll arrange for him to be killed."

In the audience, the voices of these two people were not weakened, and they were just discussing how to kill the head of the Shinsengumi, and they did not shy away from people at all.

Uesugi Kiyoshi raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly.

"Ito... Predecessor. ”

"I want to hear about it."

Ito Daizo smiled sympathetically, looked at Isamu Miyagawa, and shook his head gently.

"He's a swordsman, just fight him."

"A swordsman died in a duel, even if he was a big man in the cabinet, he couldn't find anything wrong, right?"

"Ordinary duel, he has a reason to refuse."

"However, there is a duel that he cannot refuse."

“...”

"Imperial Trial."

"Mr. Kamiizumi asked you to come to Kyoto, probably because you want to participate in the Imperial Trial."

"After you pass the Imperial Trial, you will be eligible to challenge a swordsman."

"The person you challenge, there is no excuse for fear... That battle is said to be a competition, but in fact, the rules are life and death. ”

"I am the commander of the Imperial Tomb Guards, and I am the one who handles the Imperial Trial, and I am also prepared for the final duel."

"As for me, I can quickly spread this news throughout Kyoto, and even the entire kendo world in Japan."

"The disciple of Hidekawa Kamiizumi wants to challenge Isamu Miyagawa of the Shinsengumi."

"The grudge between him and Mr. Kamiizumi is well known to the world, and even if you kill him in a duel, no one will meddle in it."

"Do you understand?"

Before Uesugi Kiyoshi could reply, Ito Daizo continued to speak.

"Hey, if he really refuses to fight, then the bravery that he has always relied on to become famous will be shattered."

"The reputation is stinky, and the burden of the Shinsengumi is not so easy to pick."

"By then, it doesn't matter if he dies in a dark corner of the street, right?"

"Uesugi, I'm not going around in circles with you... I think I'm much more suitable than him for the position of head of the Shinsengumi. ”

"At the very least, I won't go against the original intention of the people of Mibu - we are doing things for the country and the people!"

Uesugi Kiyoshi looked at Ito Daizo's eyes and knew it in his heart.

It's not like lying.

"Today's incident, poke it out, how can it be Miyagawa Isa's fault, I will initiate the Mibu Council, suspend him as the head of the Shinsengumi, today's thing, will never happen again, if it happens again that the people of the Shinsengumi shield the extreme, turn a deaf ear to the transcendents and ghosts and gods who mutilate mortals, and even collude with the same stream, I am willing to make amends with my head, Uesugi, what do you think?"

This Senior Brother Ito has all said this, and Uesugi Kiyoshi can't say anything.

To be honest, he is also thinking about himself, if he kills Isamu Miyagawa, with the position of this Ito staff officer in the Shinsengumi, I am afraid that he will naturally succeed to the position of team leader.

He didn't let himself do this, but explained the stakes of this matter in detail for himself by taking advantage of the advantages and avoiding the disadvantages, for fear that he would anger some existence and get into trouble, although Uesugi Kiyoshi may not be afraid of this result, but he appreciated.

He is a person with clear grievances, and if others give him an inch, he will give him ten steps.

This face, he gave.

Let Miyagawa Yong leave, what he is most worried about is that this person will not change his teachings, once again adhere to his concept of "death deserved", and continue to let innocent people be forced to sacrifice for those people he never knows.

If this really happens, Uesugi Kiyoshi can't get over this hurdle in his heart, and he feels that he has to take responsibility.

If you don't save yourself when you see death, you are an accomplice, and he just reprimanded Miyagawa Yong for similar words.

But Ito Daizo could not fault the promise of limiting his power and making that kind of vow.

Shrugging his shoulders and taking a step back, Uesugi nodded.

He met Miyagawa's angry eyes and smiled meaningfully.

"Ito's senior's face, I'm the junior, of course I have to give it."

"Chief Miyagawa, thank you for your hospitality tonight, I will remember it in my heart."

"We... See you next time. ”

“...”

"Get out!"
