After spending all the money accumulated for a period of time, Ling Azusa began to prepare to go back to being a geisha.But this time she discussed with Harada in advance, she didn't want to cause trouble for them.And Harada also agreed to her request because everyone is well aware of her situation now, so that everyone can take the opportunity to go to Shimahara to protect her.On the other hand, the Langshi group also began to undertake the work of guarding the sumo competition, and it was also able to raise part of the funds.She skipped her guard job on the pretext that she wasn't interested in sumo, when in fact it was known that she was using the time to do other things.

However, one night when Ayasa was away, Serizawa burned down the Yamato House.She found out about it later, because Shimabara's intelligence network is very complete.In the morning meeting the next morning, Hijikata and Shannan-san reported what happened last night, and Lingzi learned more information.

"To be honest, both Yamatoya and Serizawa-san are the same."

"However, people in Kyoto will only remember the fact that the Jinshin Roshi Group set fire to it. If this continues, the same thing will only happen again and again, Deputy Chief." Saito looked calm.

"It's really dissatisfying for you to say such a thing."

"I'm very sorry, I'm busy." Saito bowed and motioned.

"Yi is right, that person is too much of a hindrance." Okita leaned against the door with a gloomy expression.

Ling Azusa vaguely remembered what was going to happen in the future.Serizawa's life is not long, and sooner or later his presumptuous behavior will be regarded as a thorn in the side of the people at the top.As for the new pawn of the Aizu clan, Kondo was chosen.

But Hijikata's next words showed that they hadn't really considered Serizawa's affairs yet. "All in all, now we can only accumulate merits a little bit." After all, nothing was discussed, and the meeting ended early.

That night, Azusa meets an unexpected person in Shimabara.Originally, she didn't know that person, but she accidentally saw Serizawa coming to drink and was trying to avoid him, but a person who passed by Serizawa attracted her attention.The temperament of that person is obviously different from that of ordinary people, and the scene where he stopped and talked with Serizawa back to back evoked Ayazusa's deepest memory. "It's him!" Appeared so early?Chikage Kazama, would you still be enemies with the Shinsengumi without that girl?

Early the next morning, the exhausted Lingzi was awakened by several loud noises before she could get enough sleep.Suddenly getting up from the bed, she felt dizzy for a while, and she fell back on the bed uncontrollably.What does this feel like? It's so uncomfortable... Although she tried several times, she couldn't move because of the disgusting feeling. She could only listen to the sound of everyone getting up in a hurry in the corridor outside the door. It seems that Hijikata-san must have summoned the team members .Today's matter is very important, how can she not be able to do it.Enduring the discomfort, it took her a long time to barely put on the team uniform. She took several breaks in the middle, and I don't know how long the delay was.Opening the door, she leaned on the wall and walked towards the meeting place, dizzy one after another, she couldn't go on, Lingzi closed her eyes and rested on the spot, but the situation got worse, her legs lost balance, she moved forward fall down.

But it doesn't hurt.Because she didn't fall to the ground, but in someone's body.Before she opened her eyes, she knew who it was. "Seeing that you didn't come to the morning meeting, I knew there must be something wrong. What's the matter? Let's take you back to your room first." Harada gently picked her up sideways.

"Zuo Zhi, is there a conflict with the Changzhou Fan?"

"Oh, you know? That's right, you already knew it. Don't worry about this, your body is important. Leave those to us!"

Azusa endured the pain and grabbed Harada's arm with all her strength: "I don't know what happened to me, but I fell ill at a critical moment... Zuozhi, tell Hijikata-san that this time, I have to listen to Serizawa-san. Anyway, we must Listen to him." Kondo-san's personality is too good to fight against those people, and he will suffer a lot in the future.Only this time, don't mess it up.This is the only time she hopes to follow the original script.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you. Now be obedient, I'll take you back to your room! We're leaving soon, and we don't have much time." He tried his best to make her lie in his arms in a comfortable position, and arrived at her bed within two steps. Room.After setting her up, he told her several times before he left.Ling Zi lay in the room by herself, calming down a little.After this mission, the establishment of the Shinsengumi is not far away!Although it's a pity that I can't go on missions with them today, but I guess Hijikata wouldn't let her go. I don't know if he dislikes himself as a woman, not good at swordsmanship, or because he is worried about her safety, or both. .All I can do now is to take good care of my body and wait for the good news.

She was drowsy all day, not sure if she was asleep or awake.The whole person is like being on a ship.At night, the symptoms finally showed signs of improvement. After a long silence, she heard commotion in the yard.Are they back?Sure enough, after waiting for a while, Hijikata arrived with Harada, Shinpachi, and Heisuke. "I heard that you are not feeling well. After completing the task, everyone said they would come and have a look."

"How is it? Did the mission go well!" Lingzi asked this as soon as she opened her mouth.Judging by their expressions, there should be no surprises.

"Well, it's finished. I heard Zuozhi conveyed your words. I was still surprised that you, who usually dislike Serizawa-san the most, let us listen to him. It's really thanks to him this time, otherwise the Ronshi team would have No chance to perform well."

"Great!" She let out a long breath. "With this news, all the discomforts are gone~" Then the Aizu Domain will ask them to control Serizawa.

Seeing that she was obviously weak but still forced a smile on her face, Tufang didn't ask any further questions.Why on earth was she reminding them to listen to Serizawa?This has happened before, as if she knew it in advance.

Everyone chatted for a while, and left in fear of delaying her rest.When the others were about to go back to their rooms, Hijikata called Harada: "Zuozhi, the situation was urgent and I didn't have a chance to ask, did Azusa tell you why you reminded me to listen to Serizawa-san?"

Harada was taken aback, he didn't expect Hijikata to be entangled in this issue, he couldn't say it was because Lingzi knew about it in advance. "Maybe it's because I know Kondo-san's character, the girl is very careful, and maybe I thought of the situation of internal forces blocking us that we didn't expect, so I feel that this situation needs Serizawa-san's tough personality. Bar."

"Really, she didn't tell you why..." Hijikata felt that it was not that simple, but if Harada judged that he couldn't tell him, then he would stop asking. "Then it's nothing. Rest, everyone has worked hard today."

In a few days, the moment Lingzi was looking forward to all day finally arrived!Recently, whenever there is a rally, she will be very nervous, because she doesn't know which one will be the historic day.Today, Kondo, Hijikata and Shannan still sat in the front, and Ling Azusa still sat in an inconspicuous corner in the back row.

"Everyone, you did a good job a few days ago. Mr. Aizu spoke highly of our role, and said that he would officially hand over the duty of patrolling Kyoto to us." Kondo said in a calm tone, but Azusa could feel his joy .

"That's amazing!" Shinpachi exclaimed.

"In this way, our inspection will be much easier!" Harada also echoed.

Lingzi couldn't see the faces of the front row cadres, but she guessed that their expressions must be the same as hers at this time, so they must be very happy.The real joy is yet to come!

"Then, it is a great honor that Aizu Lord gave us a new team name!"

It's finally here!Kondo took out the scroll in his hand, opened it proudly and showed it to everyone, with a few large characters clearly written on it: "Shinsengumi".Ling Zi couldn't control the smile on her face, since she was sitting at the end anyway, no one would see it!

When he heard these three words, Okita repeated it deliberately: "Shinsengumi?" Something was jumping out of his mind.By the way, it was at that time... He turned his head and stared at Lingzi, she was smiling, and that smile was so sincere.And she also noticed his eyes, and then restrained some exaggerated expressions, and stared back at him.In fact, she didn't know why he was looking at her at this time, but she couldn't lose when making eye contact, especially against Souji Okita.

Hijikata then explained to everyone: "It is said that this name is the name of an organization that once existed in the Aizu Domain, and it is the organization where the martial arts practitioners belong."

Hirasuke was indeed the most excited: "Ah! I suddenly feel so nervous!"

"That is to say, Aizu recognized that our ronshigumi can inherit the name as samurai. In order to respond to his trust, we have to work harder!"

Everyone responded with unanimous enthusiasm and pride, and Hirasuke had a new idea: "There are not many days to celebrate like this, Hichikata-san, let's have fun after a long time! What do you think?"

Hijikata and Kondo looked at each other and nodded: "Well, let's celebrate together tonight!" A smile finally appeared on the always serious face.

At the end of the meeting, Ling Zi volunteered to help prepare for the celebration. Inadvertently, Okita's voice rang in her ears, asking her to go out with him alone.

Thinking of his gaze just now, Lingzi was a little worried, but quickly put aside this thought, there would be no problem, so she followed behind him. "Director, what do you want from me? Can't you tell me in the room?"

"Shinsengumi. How do you know?"

"How do I know? Didn't everyone see it together just now?"

"I'm talking about before. On the night we killed the temple, you said something like this to him: For the future of the Shinsengumi, you can only die."

Hearing this, Ling Zi couldn't help shivering.How could you have slipped your mouth so carelessly!He still remembers?It's really hard to deal with... Make up an excuse quickly.

"Well, you have to admire my genius brain! Just now Dokata-san also said that this was originally the name of the original organization of the Aizu Domain. At that time, I speculated that if the Aizu Domain recognized the existence of the Langshi Group If you give it a name, this is the only one that can be used, and it is the most suitable for us! So I made it up, copied it mechanically, and used it in advance! And ah, I actually made a mistake, I only knew a little before, so I thought it was the Shinsengumi, hey, it’s different from the Shinsengumi, there’s still a word difference!” I don’t know if this reason can be fooled, in short, it’s good not to let him know that he foresaw it.

"Is that so? I always feel..."

Before Okita finished speaking, someone called Lingzi.It was Harada, and he came over: "Didn't you say you want to help? Everyone is waiting for you to divide the work, and there is no one in the blink of an eye. It turned out that they came here. What, what are you talking about?"

What a life saver!Ling Azusa gave Harada a grateful look, and quickly answered: "Really? Just chat with the general manager, it's no big deal! Then I'll go over quickly, general manager, I'll go first~" This difficulty is over.

They moved quickly and began to replace the sign at the entrance of the village. Now, they can put their names on it in a fair and square way: Matsudaira Higoshouyu, Shinsenzumijuku.

Lingzi came back from shopping for ingredients outside, and saw Saito standing at the door alone, and said to herself: "The re-selected people... are they..."

"Yi, what are you doing here?" She put down the things in her hand and stared at the door plate. "Are you looking at this? Shinsengumi, isn't that a fitting name for a samurai?"

"Yeah, I didn't expect to be able to fulfill my duties as a warrior with this name. I never had such a luxury."

"Don't be so pessimistic all the time, I think Hajime's swordsmanship is completely competent!" She tried to raise the atmosphere with a happy tone.

"I stopped holding a sword for a while. I used to do that because I couldn't stick to the way of the samurai. But the ronshigumi accepted me like this again, and I was able to hold the sword again. So I think so, I this time Next time, we must implement the way of the samurai."

"Really..." Ling Zi put her hands behind her head, and said leisurely: "I think, if it weren't for Ha Yi's own inner yearning and active fighting, you wouldn't be accepted today. So, this This kind of thing, just like love, has the fate of you and the Shinsengumi destined by heaven, and it also depends on your own courage. I may not understand the way of the samurai as deeply as you, but restrain the weak self and chase the heart Bushido and outlook on life are actually the same! You don’t need others to give you this name, as long as you have the Tao in your heart and implement your own beliefs, that’s it. Isn’t it?” She didn’t know much, so she vaguely The set of rhetoric in Gintama that I remember has been brought out.

Saito looked at her with a little surprise, he didn't expect her insights to be so fresh and unique, and hit the point.He closed his eyes and smiled: "It seems that my level is still not enough."

"That's not true, I heard someone say it too. Alright, I'm going to prepare for the banquet tonight, so let's withdraw first~"

"Let me help you take it in." Saito shared some of the items for her, and the two entered the garrison together.
