[Gintama] Silent

The bright moon in the sky is still bright, silently watching the absurdity all over the ground below.

"We clearly agreed to open up a new era together, but now we have to bury you, a traitor, in the old era ahead of time."

The man walked down the deck slowly, and after he finished speaking, he swung his knife and chopped off the opponent's head.

The head fell into the sea and quickly disappeared with the tide.The headless corpse gradually knelt down and then fell to the ground.

The entourage behind him immediately wiped off the blood on the sharp blade with a white handkerchief, and all his actions were somewhat respectful.

He seemed quite satisfied with the sharpness of the weapon, and the movement of retracting the scabbard was quick and neat.

"Master Xixi, what should Mao Mao's lackeys do?"

"Those people can't make a fortune," he turned and walked back into the boat, "what's more, thanks to them, I have a good show to watch."

After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, "Are you right, Takasugi-kun?"

The man who was named was just smoking the pipe slowly, and only opened his mouth lazily after the puff of smoke was sprayed out.

"Good show?"

Does it refer to the old story of Yinshi who escaped from the battlefield but was arrested and imprisoned, or refers to the boring drama of the Hitotsubashi faction teaming up with the Ikeda family but being betrayed?

No matter which one it is, I have no interest in continuing to watch it.

Hitohashi was delighted to see that he didn't intend to talk to him, so he continued to speak.

"I didn't intend to snatch your prey, but I didn't expect that evil ghost to be alive now..."

Gintoki always likes to join in the fun, and Gao Shan was not surprised to meet him here.

However, that guy had no intention of revealing that he was a patriot, and he was afraid that he would face countless troubles in the future.

"Oh, you can't get it, whether it's that kid or my head."

He played with the pipe in his hand for a while, then retracted it into his arms, allowing the other party to quickly change the subject.

"Although I was a mortal enemy in the past, I don't hate you, but I am very interested in the ghost army."

It's a pity that Hitohashi's hi-ki tone sounded far less sincere than what he said in his words.

"You have a powerful force enough to be an enemy country, no matter whether you are a friend or an enemy in the future..."

Gao Shan suddenly ran out of patience, and had to interrupt the other party's hypocritical tirade in advance: "As long as you are still fighting against the shogunate, I will continue to stand here."

He turned to leave, but suddenly turned around after walking a few steps, his eyes were full of hostility and warning.

"But if one day you say you don't do it and you don't do it, it's hard to say whether it's that kid or me who jumps up and bites your neck."

"Then let's change the subject again," the other party suddenly smiled, "I heard Miss Hasumi is in the ghost army now?"

The vigilance in Gao Shan's eyes became stronger: "So what if it is? So what if it's not?"

"If it is, then Takasugi-kun should protect Ms. Hasumi well. After all, there are many people who want secret information, and her life is worth a lot."

After Hitohashi Xixi finished speaking, he immediately stared at him closely, as if he wanted to find out some information from it, but unfortunately he found nothing in the end.

Because the man in front of him just raised the corners of his mouth lightly, and didn't even bother to give any extra expression.

"Oh? Really? Then they can come and try."

-------------------------

After nightfall, the General's Mansion was already resplendent with gold and jade, and the bright lights dazzled people's eyes.

Some time ago, Tokugawa Momo was assassinated and had to flee here in a hurry.

Because of Hitotsubashi's majestic move in, the Ghost Squad was able to come in and out freely, and Hasumi was able to walk through the corridor with Matako.

The girl next to her looked around, and from time to time she gave a few words of praise.

"The General's Mansion is really big. If I wandered around inside alone, I would definitely get lost. Miyin used to be a member of the Shogunate..."

Speaking of this, he suddenly found something wrong, so he had to stop immediately, and then looked at himself cautiously.

She just smiled slightly, indicating that she didn't care too much about this sentence.

"You're right, I used to be a member of the shogunate."

After hearing this, Youzi was silent for a moment, then spoke directly, with a hint of anger in his tone.

"Actually, when I just found out your real identity, I was really, really angry."

Hasumi looked back in surprise, a little confused why the other party would suddenly bring up the past at this very moment.

"I'm angry that you lied to me, Mr. Jinzhu, and the entire ghost army. But I'm even more angry at myself for being a fool. I didn't even realize that you had other purposes at first."

Few people in the Ghost Squad would openly discuss their identities, and after a little thought, they would understand that it must be Takasugi who blocked the news internally.

Youzi has always been outspoken, holding back a lot of words for a long time and unable to speak out, it is really difficult for this carefree girl.

Hasumi looked towards the end of the corridor, which was still a corner like other places.No one knows what to expect if you take the next step.

"You son, in troubled times, people can't help themselves..."

If given the chance to choose, she would just want to be an ordinary commoner.

He didn't want to walk on the weedy road in front of him at all, and he didn't want to be an enemy of that man at all.

"I naturally understand this truth, just as I don't want to be a killer whose life is hanging by a thread."

Then Hasumi heard a short but long story.

His family was destroyed, and he vowed to avenge his father. Yu Youzi's rough life was just the tip of the iceberg, but later it sublimated into an unforgettable memory.

"However, if it wasn't for that staggering escape, I would never have met Master Jinsuke who extended a helping hand, and I would never have met the seniors in the ghost army who took great care of me."

The girl's smile was flat but satisfied, "So sometimes, being involuntary is not necessarily a bad thing at all."

She remembered the experience Wan Qi told her not long ago.

The fate of that man is generally unfortunate, but because of this, he has so many loyal and conscientious subordinates.

So to some extent, Takasugi is a relatively lucky person.

"Probably, if it wasn't for the identity of the shogunate agent, I don't think we would have met."

"So I will forgive you soon, for the sake of you still standing on the side of the Ghost Soldier in the end."

Youzi stuck out his tongue at himself, his sunny face made people feel envious.

It's a pity that Renjian couldn't laugh at all after hearing this comforting words.

A lot of things haven't happened yet, but it doesn't mean they don't exist.

What the price of betrayal is, everyone knows each other well, but they will not reveal it for the time being.

In the end, Lianjian still squeezed out a smile, but it seemed a bit forced.

"Youzi, if... I mean, if one day I'm no longer in the ghost army, you must take good care of him for me."

The girl's expression instantly became puzzled: "He? Who is it? Why will you not be in the ghost army one day? What happened?"

Just as she was about to explain, she heard a burst of sinister laughter from a corner not far away.

"Oh heh heh heh heh... I thought Miss Hasumi would have forgotten that she was a traitor to the shogunate because of the backing of the ghost army. I didn't expect that she would be so enlightened."

But he only heard his voice, not his person.

"Who the hell are you? Overhearing us? Why are you sneaking around and refusing to show up?"

Amid Youzi's cursing words, he finally showed up.

The clothes on the man's body were clean and tidy, even his hair was neatly arranged, and his every move was quite aristocratic.

The moment Renjian saw him, his eyes widened immediately, and then he quickly bowed his head to show respect: "Master Xixi."

"It turns out that this is Hitohashi Xixi who joined forces with our Ghost Soldier Team. This guy looks like a dog. Why do he do all kinds of wicked things?"

There was Matako's whispering from beside him, Ren Jian had to use all his strength in order to forcefully stop his smile.

He raised his head and found that the man was slowly walking towards him, every step he took was full of oppression.

"Miss Hasumi, how have you been recently?"

She has faced high-ranking and powerful figures many times, and she will not be so nervous that she can't speak.It's just that this time the visitor is not kind and must be treated with care.

"It's very good, thank you Master Xixi for your concern."

After hearing this, the man just showed a sneer: "I'm not the only one who misses Miss Hasumi."

At this moment, she felt exhausted physically and mentally. She just felt that why people in high positions always liked to speak in an official tone was unpredictable.Simply decided to keep silent, to respond to all changes with the same.

Hitohashi was delighted to see that he didn't answer, but he didn't get angry abnormally.

"As an ally, let me give Miss Hasumi a friendly reminder - don't let yourself be alone, otherwise there will be bad consequences."

Suddenly she couldn't figure out the real intention of the other party, so she could only reply cautiously: "Thank you, Master Xixi, for reminding me."

The man was about to leave contentedly, but after taking a step, he turned around quickly.

"Miss, I didn't eavesdrop on you. The General's Mansion is about to become my territory, so it is necessary for me to grasp all the movements here."

After saying these words, he immediately turned around and left, leaving behind only a gradually receding figure.

"If you want to say 'sneaky', you probably are more qualified to use this description?"

Lian Jian quickly grabbed the girl beside her who was on the verge of going berserk, and quickly shook her head to indicate that the other party was a noble person, and she couldn't do anything wrong now.

The expression on his face became serious in an instant, and even the strength in his hand became heavier unknowingly.

The author has something to say:

The latest chapter of the manga tells the story of Youzi's past, and was slapped in the face by the official papa, so he hurried over to edit the article.
