[Comprehensive] Winter Feast

The trace of Yu Nu was found.

Unexpectedly, she was not near the port where the return ship could be seen, but in the densely populated Hana Street in the city, in the residence of the geisha.

The news was brought back by Ishikirimaru, and the source is Shinsengumi.

"The thing is like this," Ishikirimaru recounted the story in its original form. "The cadres of the Shinsengumi went to the flower street for recreation. As the surname of the deputy chief of Hijikata—that is, his personal attendant, Chizuru Yukimura also went with him. To entertain the new The cadres were selected by Deputy Director Hijikata's eyeliner in Hanakai, Dr. Miyuki. Because they were all his own people, everyone in high spirits urged Yukimura Chizuru to change into a geisha costume."

Yukimura, who was dressed in a costume, caught the attention of a group of Shinsengumi, and also attracted other samurai who came to get drunk.

On the way Yukimura Chizuru followed the geisha back to her room and was about to change back into men's clothes, she was entangled by a drunken samurai.

Members of the Shinsengumi arrived in time to rescue Xuecun, and the group returned safely.For them, this matter has been understood, but for Huajie, the aftermath of the conflict between the two groups of warriors is far from over.

The drunken samurai suffered from the Shinsengumi, and took out all his frustration on the geisha who served them.

"When the guards went to stop her, the geisha was already injured."

The flower streets that can flourish in this era are all backed by mountains. The warriors were sober after being beaten out by the guards. They also knew that they had caused trouble, and left with their tails between their legs. Sentence, as if this can save face and prove that you are the right party.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in Huajie, and everyone didn't pay special attention to it.

However, a few days later, something strange happened.

In a pond behind Huajie, a male body was fished out, and after identification, it was found to be one of the warriors who were beaten away that day.

The body was found in the early morning, and in the evening, the companion who came with the warrior that day was also found dead in a shady alley in Huajie.

In the next few days, the bodies of five men appeared near Huajie one after another.

"If we must draw a conclusion, then they all died suddenly." The smiling Qingjiang who went out with Ishikirimaru to inquire about the news continued, "There is no fatal wound on his body."

The sudden death of five warriors one after another is already enough to make people panic. What is even more frightening is that when the five bodies were found, they were all wet.

"Leaving aside what was found in the pond, the other four corpses were all wet. According to people who saw the corpses, the dampness was not the dampness of being splashed with water, but the rainy weather that would never dry out. clothes."

The weather has been fine these days, and it is absolutely impossible for such a situation to occur.

People in Huajie were panicked, and Dr. Shenxue sent a maid to report to the local party, intending to ask for protection.

Dr. Miyuki gave Shinsengumi a lot of help, and Hijikata Toshizo immediately gave a positive reply.

"The strange state of the corpse reminded them of what happened in the garrison that night, and they heard that we were inquiring for information, so Saito came forward and contacted Ishikirimaru."

Fu Sangshen would never bring outsiders into Honmaru without the permission of the judge, so he received a message from Saito's group that Ishikirimaru and Smiling Qingjiang met Saitoichi in a tea house.

Appearing with Saitoichi are the two Shinsengumi cadres Hijikata Toshizo and Okita Souji.It was Okita Souji who told the two fusangshen what happened, and then Hijikata Toshizo asked Ishikirimaru for assistance: "I'm afraid we can't solve this incident alone."

Smiling Qingjiang immediately asked: "Did Saito-kun see anything?"

Saito, who had been silent from the beginning until now, said, "A breath... there is a residual breath." He also went to the scene to see the corpse.

If there is Saitoichi, it is basically certain that it must be done by a monster.

Several days had passed, and the corpses had been disposed of. Fusangshen were not as keen as Yae in their perception of monsters. They walked around the place where the corpse was found, but found nothing.

Ishikirimaru and Smiling Qingjiang didn't promise Shinsengumi anything on the spot, and came back to ask Yae for instructions.

"Deputy Chief Hijikata asked me to convey his thanks to you," Ishikirimaru said, "thank you for helping Chizuru Yukimura at the port."

"Speaking of the Shinsengumi." Yae suddenly remembered something he had overlooked, "How did you explain it to the Shinsengumi the night the time-traveling army appeared?"

That night, Yae didn't last until the end and passed out. When he woke up, it was already the next day. From the reactions of the Fusangshen who saw their smaller self, we can know that they became children after arriving at Honmaru.

But Yae remembers that Mikazuki appeared in the Shinsengumi village.

"We told them that the time retrograde army is the chief culprit of the haunting in the village, and you are a priestess, the god judge, so it's not surprising what happened." Smiling Qingjiang told Yae, "They believed it."

Yae couldn't believe it: "Is it so simple to believe? What I told them before was that I was a nobleman who ran away from home?"

"The cadres of the Shinsengumi are very open-minded," Ishikirimaru said. "They may think that it is not something that can be explained by common sense anyway, so... then you can accept any explanation. After all, these things, and they insist belief has nothing to do with it.”

"I don't know if it's my illusion..." Smiling Qingjiang hesitated and said, "I think Mr. Okita's complexion is not very good."

Ishikirimaru calculated the time: "The Ikedaya battle should be over."

"If I can meet Okita, I will pay attention." Yae followed their topic.

However, it was just such a sentence that made the smiling Qingjiang suddenly raise his head: "Pay attention? What are you going to do, Mr. Eight Great?"

"I don't plan to do anything for the time being." Yae answered him calmly, his eyes swept over the nervous Ishikirimaru, "There is no need to be so nervous, even if I can really cure Okita Souji's tuberculosis, the Shinsengumi will still will fail."

The progress of the trend of history is rarely changed by a single person.

Souji Okita is not that important yet.

"So, who of you wants to go to Huajie?" Yae asked everyone in Honmaru, including the two gods of death.

Urahara Kisuke showed a curious look: "Hanagai?"

Then Ye Yi punched him into the tatami: "Do you still have time to visit Flower Street?"

The construction of the underground training ground is progressing steadily, because the focus is on ghosts, and Yae can't help much, let alone Fu Sangshen.Urahara Kisuke and Sifengin Yoichi had heavy tasks, especially under Yae's reminder, they tried to open the world-transmitting gate but failed, so there was one more thing to study.

Fu Sangshen had different reactions to this sentence, Tsurumaru raised his hand: "I'm going!"

Mikazuki smiled: "If both Yae and Tsurumaru go, of course I will go together."

Candlestick is in a dilemma: "This..."

Smiling Qing Jiang shook his head: "I don't want to chop up another stone lantern."

Shiqiemaru shook his head crazily: "No, no, I'm a priest."

Yamabuchi was choked by a sip of water, and Hasebe couldn't stand it, so he patted his back silently, and silently rejected Yae's proposal.

And Yae looked at Hasebe's movements and the black air on his body that was getting thinner day by day, and suddenly felt that it made no difference whether he was looking for Yu Nu or not.

Yae asked Ishikirimaru to reply to the Shinsengumi, and they will help with this matter. Please ask the Shinsengumi to contact Dr. Miyuki and let her make it easier for Yae to enter the geisha's residence to take a look.

The reply from the Shinsengumi came quickly, and they agreed on a time and place, saying that they would send someone to take them to Dr. Miyuki, and spread the word that it was too eye-catching for women to go to Huajie, so they asked Yae to change into men's clothes.

Yae obediently changed her clothes, but felt that she would definitely not be able to keep a low profile here, after all, Mikazuki Munechi and Tsurumaru Kuninaga were going with her.

Because they were afraid of fighting, the two Fu Sangshen were wearing battle uniforms.Yae looked at it for a while, and got inspiration from Yamabukiri who passed by, and found the cloak that ronin often wears and put it on for the two of them, and then felt that it was not so conspicuous.

"So," Tsurumaru tapped his palms, "Yamabukiri always wears sheets because he is so good-looking!"

Mikazuki: "I heard that when Yamabagiri takes a hot spring, he puts a towel on his head to cover his face... I'm a little curious, what he looks like when he's not wearing anything."

Yae: "...I heard that Yamabukiri has a very light drinking capacity. What's your plan? You can get him drunk first."

Mikayue: "It seems that Yae is also very curious."

Tsurumaru: "What a cunning judge."

The cunning interrogator and the two fusangshin who planned to get Yamabugiri drunk arrived at the appointed place, and saw the members of the Shinsengumi in light green haori.

Saitoichi and Okita Souji.

Saito remained silent as usual, and Okita first glanced at Yae to confirm the identity of the visitor, then looked at the stranger who came with Yae for a while, and did not ask anything: "Go this way."

When Yae was looking at her in Okita, he was also looking at Okita. The other party did look bad, but there was no obvious sickness.

After taking a look, Yae withdrew his gaze, and didn't use his spiritual power to test whether Okita was really sick.

Just like entertaining other guests, Dr. Miyuki entertained Yae and his party in a Japanese room.

Men are not allowed to enter the living area of ​​geisha, and even women, only geisha, maiko, or their maids can enter.Yae wanted to enter the geisha's residence through Dr. Miyuki in order not to scare the snake, so she accepted Dr. Miyuki's request that she change into a maiko costume.

There are two doors in the Japanese room for entertaining guests in Huajie, one is the main entrance for guests to go out, and the other is opened opposite the main entrance, hidden behind a screen, and is a small door for geisha to enter and exit.

Dr. Miyuki played and sang in front of the screen to cover, and Yae followed her maid through the small door into the next empty room to change clothes, and then went directly to the geisha's residence.

Amidst the elegant music, Tsurumaru Kuninaga drank wine, watched Dr. Miyuki's elegant dancing posture, approached Mikazuki and said in a low voice, "It's a pity that I can't see Yae's appearance after changing clothes."

Sankaiyue took a sip of wine, maintained a smile on her face, and also replied in a very soft voice: "I feel at ease, there is no need for the Shinsengumi to see her dressed up?"

The author has something to say: There is a version that says that Dr. Miyuki is from Kondo, and there is a version that says that he is from Hijikata... emm, I chose the latter

After Qingming, the next day will be updated for a week, and the author is on a business trip
