Chapter 6: Cutting Off
What is style?
It makes people want to sleep, that's called coquettishness.
makes people want to love, that's called amorous.
In Uesugi Kiyoshi's eyes, Maki Tofumi, who was wearing cherry blossom sleeves, stumbled along the alley, her clothes were already soaked, and some of them were embarrassed to stick to her body, showing the delicate curves of a girl, but her expression did not match the panic, but pursed her thin and red cherry lips, and her eyes were full of determination and an unwavering sense of mission.
All of this is combined to make a beautiful and touching picture of a girl in distress, which can involuntarily arouse people's pity.
Uesugi Kiyoshi doesn't feel anything, he's not a womanizer, he's good at managing his desires.
If he had that kind of thought, I'm afraid he would have eaten and wiped the little apricots clean, and the current apricots are obedient to him.
What he was more interested in was the black suit that was chasing after Maki Tofumi.
"Gangster vendetta? It's the first time I've seen it so blatantly in broad daylight. ”
In Japan, there is only one kind of person who wears this kind of black suit and has an inch of hair, a person who is extremely middle-of-the-road.
Coupled with the katana in their hands, their identity is certain.
Japan is known as one of the countries with the least and most difficult individual to own firearms in the world, and Japan's "Sword and Gun Control Law" clearly stipulates that the firearms that individuals can legally buy and use are hunting rifles and air guns, and most types of firearms such as handguns are illegal.
At the same time, Japan's gun ban is also very strict, and gangsters have conflicts, and most of them use negotiation to solve problems, which is equivalent to the "talk" of the Celestial Empire.
Now it's not the same as before, everyone is seeking money, and it's best if something can be resolved peacefully.
If you can't solve it, you have to show your sword, try it with real knives and guns, and at the same time assassination, sneak attack methods are also endless, but you won't use guns unless you have to.
As soon as the shots rang out, the nature of the matter changed.
The police cadres of the Metropolitan Police Department, who have no merits, will chase this case like sharks smelling blood, bite the offender into pieces, swallow it in their stomachs, and turn it into a stepping stone for promotion on the official road.
Even if things are settled in the end, there will be an unbearable price.
In this case, the katana and the rib are basically the main weapons used by the underworld to resolve conflicts.
Uesugi swept a few times, and his eyes lit up.
The two black suits that had just rushed to the front had already caught up with Higashimi Maki, and the short knife in his hand stabbed forward, aiming at Higashimi Maki's shoulder - Uesugi Kiyoshi could see at a glance that this was trying to catch alive, otherwise there were more vital points on the person's back to choose from, and there was no need to pierce the shoulder.
Dongwen Zhenxi turned around like a willow breeze like a willow with eyes behind his back, and the sword in his hand was slanted from the bottom to the top, swinging accurately one by one, and he opened the two short knives, and his delicate body retreated with more rapid steps with the power of the black suit short knife.
"Nice cut!"
"It's definitely a knife stream, and I don't know what a knife stream, Beichen? Ono? Itopai? Or is there no outflow? ”
Uesugi Kiyoshi is an occupational criminal, he is trained by his master, and he has a wide range of knowledge in kendo, although he may not be able to use everything, but he has seen a lot of tricks, and he is definitely a professional.
Cutting down is the basic skill in the "one knife flow", and it is also a nirvana, which is the core sword skill that can be eaten all over the sky after practicing a trick, learning the sword of a knife flow, and not practicing cutting down, it is just as outrageous as if you play a moba game and will not make up the knife.
The enemy slashed at him with a sword, and in the eyes of the swordsman, it was a "straight line".
The so-called cutting down is aimed at the "weakness" of this straight line, slashing it up, destroying the center of gravity of the enemy's sword, completely cutting its sword momentum, and then slashing the enemy's swordsmanship with one sword.
To slash and slash, kill the enemy with one knife, and "cut down" will vividly reflect the characteristics of a knife flow.
Even in the battles of some swordsmen, some people will deliberately expose flaws to attract the enemy to attack, and on the premise of early preparation, use the cut to the enemy to complete the counter-kill, so in some schools, the cut is trained as a sacrifice technique.
To "cut off" the enemy's sword, it is not as simple as imagined, at the very least, you have to be faster than the opponent's knife, the middle line is stable, in order to ensure the success rate of the cut - because in a sense, if you want to cut off the enemy's sword, you must be the last to strike, otherwise in the case of the same speed of the sword, it will definitely be the enemy's sword to cut you first.
Higashiwen Maki's reflexive swing after reflexivity is like a textbook standard, successfully destroying the enemy's sword structure, and retreating with his own strength, even if Uesugi Kiyoshi plays, he can't do it better than this.
But... If he is on it, I am afraid that he will choose to pull forward and counterattack, rather than retreat with strength.
The basic skills of this cherry blossom-like girl are good, but it looks... I'm not very good at slashing people.
Tsk, it's a pity to let her die here...
Uesugi Kiyoshi was a little happy to see the hunt, he suddenly found that a swordsman of the same age with good strength was still a woman, so he naturally had some concern, and at this time he was carefully considering whether to help this girl.
As he pondered, Maki Tofumi's figure was getting closer and closer, and Uesugi Kiyoshi's eyes were staring, and her gaze was attracted by her five-flower family crest.
"A cherry blossom pattern... It's a little familiar... Wait, I just searched for some information about the Dongwen Society yesterday, isn't this the family crest of the Dongwen family? ”
"It can't be that coincidental, right..."
Uesugi Kiyoshi frowned, and put all the information together.
"Hmm... Master said that someone came to pick me up, and now there is a girl in front of me wearing a big sleeve printed with the Dongwen family crest, and she is being chased and killed by the Extreme Dao? ”
"Maki Tofumi?"
"It's kind of interesting... Is it a coincidence? Or..."
Although there was some suspicion in his heart, Uesugi Kiyoshi did not stop, he turned from the balcony and walked to the apartment, came to the door, and prepared to go down to have a look.
Hidekawa Kamizumi and Higashi were friends, and Kiyoshi Uesugi remembered very well that Master had said the phrase "He helped me a lot at the beginning."
In this case, as a disciple of Kamiizumi Hidekawa, it is impossible for him to watch the daughter of his master's old friend die in front of him.
Not only could he not explain this to the master, but he couldn't pass this level in his own heart.
Kyoko Nohara was still busy working in front of the stove, and Uesugi Kiyoshi was going to Tobunkai in the evening and didn't eat at home, but dinner still had to be made because there were other guests.
Uesugi Kiyoshi promised Master to take care of Rin Uizumi... This includes rice management.
Uesugi Kiyoshi put on his shoes, glanced at the sword pouch with the wooden knife next to the shoe rack, and after a moment's struggle, he decided not to take this thing.
This is a gift from the master to himself, it is of great significance, he has experienced several battles, he is already scarred, if he is broken by those swords in black suits, he can not bear it.
He picked up his black umbrella and said a few words to Kyoko Nohara.
"Apricot, I'm going to go out, no matter what happens, you don't want to go out."
Nohara Kyoko tilted her little head, looked at Uesugi Kiyoshi with some puzzlement, nodded obediently, and didn't ask why, Uesugi-kun said this, there must be a reason for him.
She wrapped her apron, folded her hands in her lower abdomen, bowed slightly, and said softly, "Please be careful on the road." ”
After saying that, she blushed for a moment, and she felt that the conversation she had just had with Uesugi Kiyoshi was like that of a newlywed, which made her feel a little deer.
Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't think about it that much.
He smiled softly at Kyoko Nohara, said "I'm out", and after walking out of the apartment, he gently closed the door.
Then, he took a deep breath.
It took him three seconds to adjust his mindset.
The Buddha's heart is gone, and the killing heart is not stopped.
He was ready for battle.
