The Seven Realities of the Rogue

ps: Starting from this chapter, I will emphasize again that this book is not a rigorous historical text, so please don't pay attention to some mistakes.

————————————————————————

"The Changzhou Tibetans plan to take advantage of the recent wind and scorching sun to set fire to the palace and kill the Aizu Tibetan leader Matsudaira Rongbao and other celebrities who have been supporting the Shinsengumi, and then bring Emperor Xiaomei to Changzhou..."

Nanami had just rushed back to the Shinsengumi before arriving at the room where the meeting was held, when she heard other people's discussions.

"The firewood merchant named Shuntaro Kotaka that was captured a few days ago finally revealed the inside story after being interrogated by the deputy director of Hijikata."

"Shuntaro Kotaka...is that the one who was caught suspicious by the eyeliner placed by Takanomiya?"

After listening to the team members' report, Qishi finally remembered.

"A large number of weapons were found in his home, as well as letters left by Changzhou Fan."

"..."

She had never heard of such a thing.

"Did that really be discovered through Takanomiya's news?"

"That's what the chief said."

Qishi signaled the leader to step down, and went to the meeting room by herself. She is not qualified to participate in such a meeting as she is just an ordinary team member, but her strength is far higher than others, and now she is still a combat power that the Shinsengumi can master .

"Asakura-kun..."

Indoors, the captains, bureau chiefs, and deputy chiefs of each team have also arrived, just like the last mobilization meeting before the decisive battle.

"Since you're here, sit down." Isamu Kondo stretched out his hand to signal her to sit down, Nanami nodded and sat right behind the captain of the first team, Souji Okita.

The atmosphere at the scene was very serious.

You are all famous swordsmen with great ambitions to save the country. Although few of them were born as warriors, their appearance at this moment makes Qishi feel the familiar temperament

Pedant and never to be underestimated, the eyes that only a proud samurai can have, each of them has.

Perhaps at the very beginning, when the samurai were born, their feelings could resonate a little with everyone in the Shinsengumi.

Her whole body couldn't help becoming tense, even though Qishi didn't think she had any big ambitions, her body reacted subconsciously.

"Presumably, everyone gathered here now understands."

Understand, the war is coming.

Where the Shinsengumi can go in the future, this battle in Kyoto will be decisive.

"The thieves from Changzhou Fan planned to burn the palace and take away the Emperor. This matter will not be allowed to happen under the eyes of our Shinsengumi. Since you all joined the Shinsengumi Should have the same idea."

Isamu Kondo has always disliked talking nonsense. He has always been a straightforward person, who should do what is in place in one step, and will never talk too much after the arrangement is made. He believes in the people of the Shinsengumi, and at the same time he is more Trust your own judgment.

Kill decisively.

"The secret meeting place of the Changzhou Fan has also been known to us. According to the information provided by the man named Iizuka, the cadres of the Changzhou Fan will hold a meeting in the next day, and Katsura Kogoro will be among them."

Katsura Kogoro...

It should be the first time for Okita Souji to hear this news, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Whoever kills this person has made great achievements."

If he is killed, the Changzhou fan reformers will have no leader in chaos in a short period of time, and then they will take the opportunity to encircle and suppress them, and they may be able to wipe out the Changzhou fan people in one fell swoop.

This is really a big fish that people can't calm down.

"I have already written letters to the lords such as Aizubo and Kuwanabo, but I don't think we can get support. Even though the Shinsengumi succeeded in the coup on August [-] last year, they were still not accepted by those warriors. The trust of the nobles, hehe, it can be seen from the meeting with the team some time ago, so the letter asking for reinforcements is actually just an invitation letter, inviting them to be the audience of this battle."

After Isamu Kondo finished speaking, he fell silent.

Silent for a few seconds, scanning the audience, he said

"We, since we kill people with swords, we don't want a safe life. If someone dies during this trip, we shouldn't complain."

There are no deserters in the Shinsengumi, and deserters have to apologize by harakiri, but the members of the Shinsengumi are not samurai, so seppuku does not seem to be an honorable thing for them.

"Next, arrange the battle plan. First, Asakura-kun."

"...Director Kondo?"

He named Qishi.

"Are you willing to turn into a sharp blade and strangle the enemy's throat?"

Regarding Qinghe Hachiro's matter, Qishi softened his hands.

"If I can't even do my best in my last battle...it would be too embarrassing."

"Hahahaha, then other people should not lose to a girl."

The meeting is still going on, about the murder.

……

……

Yuka Kiriri was packing her luggage, and she didn't notice it before, but when she started to pack it, she realized that there were not many things she could take away.

The former Yoshiwara wandering girl is now so simple.

Obviously only a year has passed, but the personnel changes are already amazing, so what about myself in five, ten, or decades?

At that time, what kind of life would I live in which land, and what kind of people would be around me, and many, many unimaginable things would happen.

Giant steel birds flying in the sky and black ships are no longer rare things.

There will be many good things in the future, not to say that there will be no sorrow, but the things that make people happy will definitely leave a deeper impression.

The chief said that she would be sent back to Nagasaki for her safety.

Indeed, she is not Qishi, nor is she a beloved, and Jiexiang is a very ordinary woman. The easiest way to protect herself is to stay away from danger.

But I feel a little bit reluctant about this place where I haven't lived for long.

"Isn't it reluctant?"

Qishi came back and they lived together.Qishi is the only one who can come here without knocking

"Ah, is it over?"

"Ah."

Qishi saw that Jiexiang was packing up her things and knew that maybe the chief executive had notified her in advance.

"I'll pick you up after the end. Are you leaving tomorrow?"

"No, leave the day after tomorrow."

Yuxiang smiled at the girl holding the sword, she rarely smiled like this, it was as surprising and heart-warming as the cherry blossoms falling into the palm of a tourist inadvertently.

"The day after tomorrow, I'll see you off and go."

Qishi, do you really like me?

Jie Xiang thought to herself, I probably like you too, as if I were my own sister.

If you are hurt, your heart will ache.
