Early the next morning, the commissioner's office and the force came to the mansion to report in a hurry.

The incident is very simple, someone committed a murder in You Guo last night, killing and injuring hundreds of people.

Subsequently, as expected, Ha, who was not surprised at all, led the people of the commission to the scene of the crime.

Even after an hour or two, the scene still looks shocking.

Even some houses have collapsed into ruins.

There were many corpses covered with straw mats on the streets... There were clotted blood stains everywhere.

In fact, the government office received the news very early and rushed to deal with it.

But because it was late at night, I was afraid of disturbing the haze, so I delayed it until the morning.

"My lord, there are witnesses who say that the murderer is a teenager, an orphan named Sawakawa, who seems to have a vicious dog by his side...", explained to Hatsu.

"It's fine."

And Hao didn't listen to his words at all, but just said it silently in his heart.

Zechuan did not vent his killing intent to everyone, he was selectively slaughtering the target, which means that he did not get carried away because of the power he suddenly obtained, but calmly implemented the plan. The dead were all evildoers, drunkards, etc., and some samurai who often lingered here and bullied others.

There were also some casualties among the civilian population, but the proportion was not significant.

In this way, the birth of the prostitute Taro and Mei will not be affected.

Hundreds of people died... This is a rare event.

Once it is transmitted, it is enough to make the whole city shake.

"Block the news and send a few people to investigate, it's just a bunch of untouchables." Hazy said lightly.

"Yes."

With force, that is, Wasai Daisuke heard the words, and responded honestly.

He is the position of Chief of Police.

He was not surprised by such an attitude, because in a place like the slums, people die almost every day for various reasons, and the people who patrol the slums rarely come to such areas. Plus it's hard to be taken seriously by untouchables, let alone a big man like Ha who has something to do with the shogunate... It's just that a few hundred people died at once, and the number is quite staggering.

In addition, the things related to the murderer are a bit weird, how can a teenager do it to this extent?

After explaining a few words, Hao went home.

The whole case highlights a perfunctory matter.

For a while, I am afraid that business in the slums will be affected, but it will not be long before it will be restored.

Time will always heal all wounds.

These people still have to make money and survive.

"Huh?"

However, before riding the sedan chair, Hao noticed several swordsmen in strange costumes, ghost hunters, and ghost slayer members.

At this time, the ordinary uniform of the ghost killing team is not the kind of later generations.

"It's fast enough..."

Watching a few people wander the streets, they kept asking some survivors about what happened last night, and smiled slightly.

Hao is very sure that Sawakawa has left You Guo.

Since it is to save the world, it must be cleaned up from the ruling class, so if nothing else, Sawakawa has already gone to Edo Castle.

This is the effect of different wills, and if it were those ghosts who were not miserable, they would not do such a thing. Attacking the shogunate means that it will attract the attention of the secular official forces, and it will lead the shogunate, which has always turned a blind eye, to the end, which is not what Wu Miao wants to see, and doing so will make the situation of the ghost more difficult.

What's more, Hazy's blood carries his personal will, and after being absorbed by Zechuan, it can suppress the power and curse of the Miserable Cell, and to put it bluntly, it is to get rid of the control of the Miserable, but it will still be fatally injured by the sun and the Nichiren Knife.

In the same way, if you want to be strong, you also need to eat people.

You Guo's matter is not big or small, but under his operation, it has not made any waves.

For a period of time, Hao stayed at home, exercising every day and polishing his body.

The intensity of his cultivation of national arts is far less than that of full-time work, and he only practices for three or four hours a day.

From the north and south of the prefecture, as well as from the shogunate, we are constantly collecting information... In this way, we can observe the current situation in all parts of the country.

……

And on the other side, the Ghost Slayer.

As time passed, the swordsmen became more familiar and familiar with the method of tuna... The overall combat power of the Ghost Slayer Team has finally improved significantly.

Especially a few columns.

The results are gratifying.

In just one year, the number of columns has risen from six to eight, not to mention, and many lower strings have been killed in a row.

One day, the house of the Sanyashiki family.

Kuno's health is getting worse and worse, and time is running out.

He summoned all the pillars to announce that his son, Hideo Sanyashiki, who is also the next generation of Sanyashiki, will take his place after his death.

Although Xiunan is a teenager who is only twelve years old, he has always followed his father since he was sensible, learning, growing... Judging by the look in his eyes, he himself was prepared.

There is no objection to the octet.

"Did you find that ghost?"

Kuno looked at the city guard who was bowing his head and asked.

"Sorry, no trace of it."

The city guard said calmly.

"Alas... It's really hard. ”

Kuno sighed.

"The power of that ghost is obviously different from other ghosts, the young man named Zechuan is a local from Youguo, and he has made such a big mess and killed so many people, it is impossible for Hao, as the leader of the Confession, to be unclear. The concentration of the blood he received was very much like that of a miserable gift... But it shouldn't be nothing miserable, most of the time, it's done in haze. ”

"What is this man going to do?"

In Kuno's eyes, there was a layer of worry hidden.

After saying that, he spurted out a mouthful of blood.

"My lord."

The faces of several pillars changed.

Over the past year, Kuno has been thinking about the purpose of Haku, and what is the purpose behind his actions.

Perennial exhaustion of his mind, focusing on this kind of thing, naturally consumes his life even more.

First he helped the Ghost Slayer, and then he educated the pillar-level swordsmen... Disdain the identity of the ghost and the miserable bloodline, all of this seems to be biased towards the side of the ghost killing team.

However, now he has created a new ghost with his own hands, and he is left to kill him.

Even with the thinking of Kuno Sanyashiki, I can't see through it.

Do you want to replace Wu Miao?

If that's the case, there's no need to help them with the Ghost Slayer...

Turning a teenager into a ghost, even if you don't know where the boy's blood came from... But it should have nothing to do with no misery, Hao didn't join forces with it.

The background of that teenager, Kuno has seen it.

Orphan...

More than half a year before You Guo's death and injury, the teenager received money from a big man and went to buy a puppy as a companion, and the dog was called Cangmaru. Zechuan loves Cangmaru very much, but because of the corrupt atmosphere of You Guo, once the puppy is revealed, he can't protect the dog with the power of a teenager at all, so when Zechuan goes out, he has been locking the puppy in the box at home, and he is very well protected.

One man and one dog depend on each other.

It's just that as the puppy grows bigger, it becomes more difficult to hide.

Until one day, someone finally found out that he had a puppy... In order to protect the dog, Sawakawa was coerced to send a hush money to the person who found it every day, and in order to make money, the teenager did everything he could, stealing, begging, etc., and was exhausted almost every day...

The rest of the matter, Kuno doesn't have to think about it, and he knows what the situation is.

After all, the boy's ability is limited, and he can't always earn money... Once you don't pay the hush money, you can imagine what will happen.

As for the big man who gave the boy money, through the description of the local people in You Guo, there is no doubt about it.

His black feather weave is very iconic.

"Save the boys?"

Kuno muttered to himself, thinking about Hazy's appearance, and shook his head: "Impossible... There are many ways to save it, and with his skill, it is very easy to influence the young man to do good, and there is no need to cause the death of the follow-up people. Like Otomo Issuizu, he does things... All have deep meanings, and this deep meaning almost involves human life and blood. ”

"Father... Don't think about it. ”

"Lord, hurry up and rest."

Seeing that he was still thinking with all his brainpower, the people around him were all discouraged.
