[Comprehensive] History of Harmony Honmaru

It was night, and a few vigorous figures flew past the roof.

The dark clouds covered the bright moonlight, and in the darkness, the nimble and night-like figures in the darkness passed by the shadows cast by the eaves.

Like a ghost that can never be caught by light.

They are the real walkers in the night and the kings of the night.

The shadows of the night are the robes that crown their finery, and everything they see and touch is their domain.

Maybe their combat power is not as strong as the powerful and outstanding men in the day, but in the time after the night falls, in the night that is equal to the day, they are the most powerful characters.

Together with breathing, it can be hidden in the night.

Although Yu Li offered to accompany them on missions, the daggers insisted not to let her worry any more.

At this time, she was sitting in the house, the candles were shining brightly, the fire light in the quiet room moved slightly, and the lights were stirred up by the spiritual power, and the orange-red lights spread the halo with heart-warming temperature.

Yu Li is used to using candlelight to meditate and help her practice, and Fusangshen are more familiar with this more primitive lighting method than starting lamps.

They don't care whether the room is bright, not to mention that at night, if it is still brightly lit, it will inevitably lead to suspicion, but this candlelight is just right. When the curtains are drawn and the door is closed, the outside cannot be seen, and the people inside the room can barely see .

Yu Li sat quietly on the main seat in the hall as she had done many times in the past, a candle was burning slowly on the table, and the halo and warmth diffused, lightly and faintly illuminating the entire room.

Feeling a sense of urgency, Yu Li, who has recovered her strength without the use of spiritual power in this world, can't help but feel a little worried. She can only use practice to ease her emotions when she is full of worries and worries.

However, unlike many times in the past, this time, she was not the only one in the house.

Surprisingly, except for the two teams who were sent out on missions, except for the twelve Fusangshen, all the remaining Fusangshen were waiting in the house with Yu Li.

The search in the past few days was not fruitless. The most important thing was that the clues they collected all pointed in one direction.

But the most critical information has to wait for the report of those who act tonight.

Yu Li practiced patiently with her eyes closed, and after a few rounds of dredging her spiritual power, her mood gradually calmed down.

The Fusangshen were also relieved after seeing her enter the state, and most of them closed their eyes to rest their minds. Even when talking, they were extra careful and whispered.There are a few Fusangshen who are similar to Candlestick Kiri Mitsutada, and Tong Tanuki Masakuni is wiping his own sword, as if preparing for the possible next battle.

Everyone also knows that the current situation is just short of a tipping point. As Shizheng is attacked more violently by the retrograde army, the trend of defeat is becoming more and more obvious. While everyone is feeling heavy, they also know that such a large team will stay in the country. In this world, it should not be missed.

What's more, Ji Chuanxue seems to have a grudge against them.

Previously, the three members of Laipai's family had gone to Asakawa's house to inquire about it. Aizen Kunitoshi had sneaked in, but because of time constraints, they could not obtain more direct evidence. The purpose of the investigation is to use some modern technology to copy some reliable information and bring it to the judge for himself to judge.

The team going to Asakawa's house was temporarily appointed as the first team, led by Aizen Kunitoshi, and the five members were Ranto Shiro, Shinano Toshiro, Yaken Toshiro, Kokuku Toshiro, and Sanjo Toshiro from the Awataguchi family. Pai Jinjian.

The other team was heading for the Cangya Martial Arts Hall.

Several Token Fusangshen from the Shinsengumi have met them before, because Fusangshen and the others intend to associate with the people in the Budokan, and they intend to be small, which makes the people in the Budokan less wary , so everyone also learned some small news from some disciples, but the most important content is still not harvested.

The fusangshen of the Shinsengumi hid their identities during this time, and went to the Budokan every day as ordinary warriors practicing, and they almost knew the structure there, so they also planned to take advantage of tonight, and the first Troops operate at night at the same time.

Considering the weakening and bonuses of many Fusangshen in the night battle, the captain of the second unit, California Kiyomitsu, and the five members are Yamato Mori Andada, Horikawa Kunihiro, Izumi Mori Kanesada, Nagasoya Toru, and Urashima Toru.

The moon slanted over the treetops, and it was the time when the people in the town were sleepy.

No one would have imagined that such a group of people would sneak into the small town on such a night when the moon was fading and appearing.

"The investigation is complete, and there is no situation around." Yao Yan's voice was low and steady. He and Luan were the ones who were more familiar with the situation in the town, and they were sent out to confirm the surrounding situation first.

Unlike big cities with endless lights, people in small towns work from sunrise to sunset, and there are no special circumstances such as holidays, which will not change the usual biological clock.

I did a survey around Asakawa's house, just in case.

"Okay, let's proceed according to the original plan." Among the six people, only Ai Ran Kunijun had actually sneaked into the house. Although today I made up my mind to search everything as much as possible, but where there may be problems, one point is bigger. He also had some ideas in his mind, "Then, Gukuu Toshiro will watch for us at the door, and if there is any situation, he will give us a signal according to the original plan."

"The rest of you, come into the house with me."

"Yes!" Everyone responded seriously, even Imai, who was usually smiling and innocent, also put away his expressions.

In fact, Imaiken in combat state is completely different from his usual self.

Perhaps because he was also a big sword, Imaken has a serious and majestic side in his bones, and his stern look and strong fighting will have not changed in the slightest because he has become a weak-looking short sword.

On weekdays, he is always bouncing around, as if he has unlimited energy, whether it is the lovely warmth in his pure and clean red eyes, or his lack of knowledge and learning, sometimes he It looks like a child, or the kind of kindergarten level.

But as long as he is needed, in battle, he will not behave like any child.

He also has keen observation and detection skills, and when it comes to real combat, his attacks are no less than anyone else's.

The first time Yu Li saw him using a real sword to kill, he was shocked. His coldness and strength were beyond expectations and beyond imagination.

She believes in every possibility of her subordinate Fusangshen.

Aizen Kunitoshi, Imaiken, and Ranto Shiro are the main people in charge of the search today.

Yao Yan will watch out for them in the house, and always pay attention to the movements of the few people resting in the bedroom.

There is a camera with excellent functions hanging around Ran's neck. This is what Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki likes to do. Because of today's task, Ran deliberately learned from Mutsu Mori, who is addicted to electronic technology, for a long time.

Aizen Kunitoshi has a USB flash drive in his pocket. Although he doesn't think there will be any big confidential information in Asakawa's computer, he still needs it just in case.

Imaiken has to go through the documents and materials that their family may have in the shortest possible time. According to the adults of their Sanjo family, Mikazuki Munekin, Ishikirimaru, and Kohomaru, the focus of his reading should be photo albums and diaries. A class of things.

As long as it has something to do with the word Yoshikawa, they can't miss it.

"Brother Yaoyan..." Luan called softly, Yaoyan gestured with them, everyone nodded in affirmation, and then walked quickly in the corridor, the shoes stepped on the wooden floor without a sound.

Before entering the house, everyone put special shoe covers on their shoes, which would not leave footprints or affect walking, and the noise would affect their actions.

Yao Yan hid behind the corner of the corridor, holding a syringe filled with anesthetic in his hand.

Although he doesn't want to use it, but if...

"No, there's nothing critical here..." The light from the electronic screen shone on Aizen's face, and his fingers pointed at the mouse that Akashi Kuniko and Hotaru specially found for him without any clicking sound, folders Was opened and closed very quickly.

This is the only computer that Asakawa's son often plays with. According to what he said before, he first checked the web browsing history of the teenager, and then looked for encrypted files, or blog diaries, but obviously it was not No gain.

"Why not...?" Jin Jian tilted his head, a little puzzled.

"What's the matter?" Looking back at him, he was looking at the photo of the family of three on the desk in the study, and felt a little strange for some reason.

"I didn't find anything like an album."

There is no surveillance in the Asakawa family room, as long as they are careful not to leave traces, they will not be suspected by the Asakawa family with their skills.

"Here, there is a cabinet with a lock!" Luan was busy opening the drawer, when suddenly he stopped pulling the drawer, and saw that the cabinet with the lock did not allow him, an outsider, to open it.

This is an inconspicuous position in the study, but it is also the place they are most looking for.

The cabinets are on the bottom floor, the lowest one to the left of the desk.

Ai Ran turned off the computer, came to help open the cabinet, fiddled with the wire at the keyhole, they knew this skill.

Imamori was still checking the bookcase, and there was nothing special or intriguing. He had gone through the documents and homework on the desk, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Suddenly, his eyes stopped on a book about the traditional dance Sundance.

Just as Imaken stretched out his hand to look at the book on the top shelf, Ran and Aizen finally opened the drawer.

"This is..." Luan frowned.

"Key?" Ai Ran's face was also full of puzzlement, "Why is there only one key? Where is the cabinet? What is the key to open?"

In a small drawer, there are other files, books, and notebooks, but this drawer is simply holding a few A4 white papers with yellowed corners, as if to cover up something, take the paper When he came out, there was only a brass key tied with a red string underneath.

"Look for the cabinet corresponding to this key." In fact, everyone didn't have much hope, such a key was probably the one that was discarded, and the only reason they insisted was that it was placed in a locked cabinet .

In addition to the fact that the brass key was abandoned and forgotten aside, there is another possibility that this seemingly old key can really open something important.

As for the safe at home, they didn't have any idea from the beginning.

Fusangshen are not really here to be thieves and steal things. It is impossible for clues and evidence to be placed in the safe. After all, although it may be a secret of their family, it may not be so valuable that it will be kept like money. But if there is, it must be placed in an inconspicuous location.

On the contrary, Ai Ran had found three family members' medical records before, and asked Luan to take photos.

What's interesting is that before or during their move, no one in the family was seriously ill or had any special symptoms.

"Huh!" Jin Jian suddenly let out a surprised cry, although the sound was not loud, but in the dark night, it was somewhat clear.

"What's wrong?" Ranto Shiro looked up after hearing the sound.

"Look." Jin Jian raised his hand and handed over the book.

"Squeak—" The door downstairs was opened gently.

Yaken Toshiro's heart was lifted instantly, and he glanced back at the study on the back side where the door was still open. He knew that the few people hadn't completely settled down yet, but the noise from downstairs had gradually approached the corridor from the room.

He leaned against the wall, looked down, and saw that a certain light had already been turned on.

Yaoken slowed down his breathing and squeezed the syringe tightly in his hand.

if close...

Horikawa Kunihiro and Urashima Tororu, two waki-chai boys, went up to the roof in two or three steps. Horikawa uncovered a piece of brick and tile and went down to investigate, while the other looked down at the entire wish of the Kuraya Budokan from above. In the big courtyard in the center, only the various family members of Mudun Zhuangzi are standing firmly under the moonlight.

Not long after, Horikawa made gestures with several people hiding in the dark, and the other four rushed out quickly. Urashima also lowered his body, followed Horikawa and jumped down first, trotting down the corridor.

After skipping several rooms in a row, the footsteps of the Fusangshen did not stop.

Passing through the training hall on weekdays, where some of the disciples were resting, California Qingguang slowed down slightly.

Chang Zeng Mihu thoroughly scanned the closed rooms without lights, feeling a little uneasy for some reason.

Urashima Tortoru, who saw his movements from the corner of his eye, looked at his brother in surprise, and Nagasoya shook his head with him.

After receiving the signal from Horikawa Kunihiro, California Kiyomitsu gave a "forward" gesture command without hesitation.

Then, just reaching the innermost side of the back, they all saw the warm lights shining from the windows.

Everyone was stunned, almost subconsciously standing on all sides, with the tip of the knife pointed to the outside, and each of them guarded a position.

"Come?" The old voice was still steady, although he was old, he looked healthy.

Hearing the sound, California Qingguang paused, and his expression became serious.

"Come in, stranger."

Qing Guang frowned fiercely, and the knife in his hand moved slightly, quietly cutting a little bit of moonlight.

Horikawa and Izumi Mamoru, who were following behind, looked at each other, and finally everyone followed Qingguang into the practice room that had been lit for a long time.

When the summons bell rang, everyone couldn't react.

Fusangshen are not yet fully accustomed to modern technological products. Except for a few guys like Mutsu Mori Yoshiyuki who are particularly pursuing the new era, most of the Token Fusangshen who came from the old era are relatively old-fashioned. Rather, in fact They don't need to know much of this stuff.

After all, the world of swords and swords is boring. In order to prevent them from being distracted and having other thoughts, the government of the time will not let the swords and swords, which are used as fighting weapons, get in touch with too many new era affairs.

It is already a great blessing to have such an opportunity to survive in the present world of the new era for a period of time.

But everyone will not indulge in fun and forget their mission. They will eventually return to their own world, the world of swords and swords that seems to be boring only in black and white.

"This is..." Kasen Kanesada was a little hesitant, not sure.

"It's a computer, right? Computer" Qingjiang smiled, pronouncing English words with a somewhat awkward tone of voice.

Yu Li nodded, and looked at Hasebe, who had already taken her computer from one side.

It turned out to be a communication request.

But the strange thing is, as if it appeared out of nowhere, if it wasn't for the pattern representing the family crest of the Akashi family in the corner, she would have thought that her computer had a virus.

Video request permission.

The first thing that appeared was Akashi Seijuro's serious and stern face.

Yu Li blinked in puzzlement. On this big night, she suddenly sent a video request, which was a bit beyond her expectations.

Probably because the situation was more urgent, Akashi cared a little about her safety and living conditions, and told her that he had arranged for someone to pick her up, and that everything from the boat to the car was already on the way, including her people of course. The problem of paying the gods.

Hearing the male voice coming from the inconspicuous thin board, all the Fusangshen had different expressions.

On the contrary, Akashi's projection was in front of the table, and there was quite a shock in everyone's eyes.

Everyone heard Akashi's words clearly, but she would not interfere with the lord's affairs, and she did not let everyone avoid her.

The smile on the corner of Sanri Yuezong's mouth became more and more subtle, and it seemed to be full of admiration for the new era.

Not long after, the person on the other end of the conversation changed.

Yinhai's face appeared in the screen projected by the light screen.

"What's the current situation?" Yu Li didn't want to talk nonsense, and asked the most important thing directly.

Yinhai's complexion was not very good, the white bandages on his body almost went around as far as he could see, he put on a coat loosely, and his usual joking expression was gone, the solemnity in his eyes undoubtedly showed that wearing something.

"Is it already very bad? Yoshikawa Yuki's power...has increased again?"

"No, in fact, the current situation is much more serious than you think."

Yin Hai's face looked extremely serious on the electronic screen, and when he said this, his voice was inevitably tinged with a little pain.

"Most of the inspectors who are still standing there are seriously injured, and the area we control now is less than half of what we had when we retreated."

"After all, the opponent is a retrograde army that doesn't feel pain and is extraordinarily orderly..." Yu Li didn't know how to describe this feeling. Those people who arrived no longer exist, and her heart is still heavy.

"The strength of the opponent is never an excuse for us to retreat and die." Yin Hai shook his head, and suddenly changed the subject, "I won some support from Huakai Yuan's family, and I want to find out the source of the traitor'Defiant's power. "

Ji Chuanxue had used the title of "Defender of the Tao" since the later period of the war, but she did not explain the origin of this name or the title, but Yu Li already had an extremely terrifying idea in her heart.

And Yinhai is actually a relative of the Huakaiyuan family of the Onmyoji family. Although it does not seem to be an orthodox direct line, but because of this blood relationship, the current prospective heir, the female Onmyoji Huakaiyuan Yuluo, is willing to support him and give him some help. , is undoubtedly a gratifying thing.

The Government of Time is the last big tree and reliance of these god judges. They collapsed, which is not a good thing for everyone. Not to mention the ordinary god judges who are still trapped in Honmaru, it is the fact that history has been changed. The possible consequences that they will cause are not all they can bear.

"So, is there a result?" Yu Li asked him, and Yin Hai shook his head.

"Not optimistic."

"The laughing ghosts are still insisting on the core control area of ​​the political affairs. Before losing contact, they sent us a message for the last time, saying that the defenders seem to have come in person."

"Ji Chuanxue came to this world in person?" Yu Li frowned, with some bad premonition, "When was the last contact?"

"Yesterday, Laughing Ghost finally sent a message saying that she came to this world. We have some way of communicating with each other to confirm each other's survival and information communication, but after that we can only send the news unilaterally, and we cannot get a response from Shizheng. Yes." Yin Hai nodded, as if to comfort him, "Don't worry too much, there is no news that the core control area has fallen, it's just that the situation is getting worse, but it's not the worst. In addition, we suspect that the defenders will come this time. , probably some kind of joint."

"What do you mean?"

"Behind the Daoist, there is probably another person. We suspect that she has a very powerful helper in this world. At present, only a little tail is exposed. It is estimated that she has some kind of convenient identity that can be hidden in this world. Our ability in this world It’s not enough, and they haven’t been caught, this is the Ise Jingu’s investigation, and they will not let this possible danger go.”

"Besides, Laughing Ghost's insanely clever guy suspects that this worldly 'helper' and 'guardian' may have different plans."

"what do you mean……"

"They are cooperation, not the control of superiors and subordinates."

Yinhai smiled suddenly, his clean face still had the characteristic pallor of an unhealed injury, but this smile was less sickly and delicate, even though his thick dark circles and not-so-good complexion still showed He is under a lot of pressure these times.

"Those guys, I brought them here for you." He smiled a bit wickedly, as if he wanted to make a joke, but the situation was not very good at this time, and his smile seemed to involve the wound, "Don't let everyone down. , Honorable Princess~"

Yu Li frowned, but she didn't fully understand what he meant, and the sudden sound that followed shocked everyone.

Suddenly, there was a sound of drawing knives!
