I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

"Well...it seems to be true."
The two Okabiki who were searching a certain alley were asking and answering.
Although a large number of Okaki have been transferred to this block, there is still a serious shortage of manpower.
Gang Yin were divided into groups of two or three, and searched every surrounding street.
Holding the lantern in their hands, they illuminated the last part of the alley that was not covered by light, and after finding nothing abnormal, the two Okabiki breathed a sigh of relief.
After such a question and answer, the two carried their own lanterns and began to walk out of the alley.
However—they just turned around when they suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing from their side...
Kara.
There was the sound of bones being broken.
One of the two Gang Yin turned his head and saw his companion had his neck broken by a young man.
Before he could scream, the young man let go of his companion whose neck had been broken, and rushed towards him...
……
……

After using Shiranui-ryu Jutsu to cleanly break the neck of that Okabi, Ogata threw himself at the other Okabi without any pause or hesitation, and then quickly controlled him.
"Don't make a sound."
Ogata tightly covered the mouth of this Okabi with his right hand.
"I have a lot of questions for you. You answer them all for me."
"I will let go of your mouth later, if you dare to scream, I will kill you immediately."
After all, in order to enhance his deterrent power, Ogata lifted the thumb of his left hand that had been pressing on the mouth of the sheath, and slightly pushed Da Shitian's blade out of the sheath.
The cold light reflected from the one-finger-wide blade that popped out of the scabbard flashed in the eyes of this Okain, causing the color of fear in Okain's eyes to increase exponentially.
After seeing this Okabiki nod his head violently several times, Ogata slowly let go of this Okabiki's mouth.
"First, the first question..."
……
……
After asking until there were no questions to ask, Ogata pondered for a while, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"I...I promise I won't tell you what I saw you..." Seeing that Ogata didn't ask him any more questions, this Okabi said tremblingly.
Ogata raised his eyes and glanced at Oka Yin.
Then--
laugh.
The sound of sharp knives piercing into flesh sounded.
Ogata covered Okabiki's mouth with his left hand, pulled out Ozawa with his right hand, and pierced Okabiki's heart with the bird thorn.

[Gain 70 personal experience points, 65 experience points for swordsmanship "Sakakibara Ichidou"]

"Sorry……"
Leaning into this person's ear, after speaking softly, Ogata let go of the corpse of Okabiki who had completely lost all life.
"What's the matter..."
Ogata sighed softly while retracting the Dazizai blade that had wiped off the blood into its scabbard.
Ogata had already figured out what was going on.
To put it simply - he has become a villain.
Inexplicably, he was responsible for the serial murder case.
Probably when he was cleaning Fuma's mansion together with A-Machi, the Kyoto Prefecture began to arrest him throughout the city.
All the police forces in Kyoto prefecture went door-to-door to inform the citizens of Kyoto to be vigilant about Ogata Isai, and searched for Ogata Isai from house to house.
And the gang of Okabi just happened to be searching for that ramen shop, and then happened to meet Ogata who happened to be eating noodles in this ramen shop...
"This thing is useless..." Ogata casually threw aside the tengu mask pinned to his waist.
He has just learned from the mouth of Na Gangyin that wearing masks is now prohibited in Kyoto.
The purpose is to prevent officials from looking for Ogata.
Wearing a mask at this time has become the most conspicuous existence.
"I don't know how Ah-cho is doing now..." Ogata muttered.
Compared with his own safety, Ogata is now more worried about A-Machi.
Although he himself is already in a situation where he cannot protect himself.
Because he was not familiar with Kyoto, Ogata had run into a dead end several times just now, and the officials had spotted him several times.
If he hadn't mastered the rudimentary Shiranui-ryu stealth technique and the ability to climb walls and roofs, Ogata would have been surrounded by officials long ago.
Just when Ogata was thinking about whether there was a way to get back in touch with A-Machi, who had lost contact with him, suddenly there were low footsteps from the other end of the alley.
Ogata quickly lowered the center of gravity of his body, and put his right hand on the handle of Da Shitian's knife.
"Brother Ogata, it's me."
As soon as the tip of Ogata's right finger touched Da Shitian's handle, a familiar voice sounded from the source of the footsteps.
"Makimura?" Ogata raised his eyebrows.
The right hand that had already held the handle of Da Shitian's knife was slowly released.
Mucun slowly emerged from the darkness invisible to the naked eye.
Mucun is not alone.
Behind him are Shimada, Asai, and Lin.
"Why are you here?" Ogata asked.
"I'll explain this to you slowly later, you come with me first. I'll talk to you slowly in Luge."
"Come with you? Where are you going?"
"You are not familiar with the place of life in Kyoto. It is only a matter of time before you run around like this and be surrounded by officials in Kyoto. I will take you to a suitable hiding place. You should avoid the limelight there first."
"A suitable place to hide?" Ogata asked in a half-joking tone, "Could it be a cave or something?"
"Of course not." Mucun smiled meaningfully, "The place I want to take you to is the place that almost all men in Kyoto dream about—Shimabara."
Chapter 295 Spending 10 skill points in a row
Back in time not long ago——
"Is this the meeting place that Shenshan and you agreed to meet?" Asai said, looking down at the tea house in front of him.
"This is the tea house that Master Shenshan often comes to." Mucun said, "Master Shenshan sometimes changes his work in this tea house to change his mood. Let's go."
Mu Cun led Shimada and Asai towards the tea house.
Among them, only Lin was inconvenient to show up in public.
If Hasegawa finds out that there is a "Yan Mo" pinned to Lin's waist, then Lin's identity as "Buddha's enemy" will be self-defeating.
Therefore, Lin hid somewhere some distance away from here, and only three people from Mucun came to negotiate with Shenshan.
Opening the paper sliding door of the tea house, Mucun saw Shenshan and Hasegawa sitting at the low table facing the door.
A younger youth stood respectfully beside Shenshan, who seemed to be Shenshan's assistant.
"Makimura, you're back." Shenshan sized up Shimada and Asai, "Are these two your companions?"
"Master Shenshan, I can assist you." Mucun said bluntly, "But I have one condition - after the matter is completed, please release a prisoner who is currently detained in the Kyoto Prison and hand it over to us."
"Prisoner?" Shenshan frowned slightly, "Which prisoner do you want me to release?"
"A doctor named Xuan Ren. I heard that he is a doctor who understands Nanban medical skills. I need his medical skills to treat a friend of mine."
"I came back to the capital this time to invite him, but whoever looked like him was thrown into prison."
What Mucun said was undoubtedly a lie.
After Shenshan pondered for a while, he turned his head and whispered to the assistant beside him:
"Go and check to see if there is such a person in the prison."
"Yes."
The assistant left quickly.
Not long after, he quickly returned to Shenshan's side.
"Master Shenshan, there is indeed such a person. Because he was suspected of prescribing the wrong medicine and killing someone, he is currently being detained in prison."
"...He should be just an ordinary doctor, right?"
"It's really just an ordinary doctor." The assistant said, "Besides being well-known among the common people due to his superb medical skills, there is nothing special about him."
"...I understand." Shenshan nodded to Mucun, "After the matter is completed, I will release Doctor Xuanren and give him to you."
"Grateful."
"Besides this, Mucun, do you have any other requests?"
"Tell me the location of the latest victim."
"It seems that there are no other requirements... I have asked people to mark the places of death of all the victims on this map, and indicate the time of death."
Shenshan pushed forward a folded map placed on a low table beside him.
"In order to facilitate the contact between the two of us, I will stay in this tea house until I go to the Nijo Imperial Palace to attend the banquet hosted by Tokugawa Munemu-sama tonight."
"If you need any help from me, you can come to this tea house and ask me."
"Thank you. I don't need your help, Lord Shenshan, for the time being."
……
……
After leading Asai and Shimada back to Lin's hiding place, Mucun reported to Lin Hui:
"My lord, it's settled."
"Very good." Lin nodded lightly, "In this way, we can obtain Dr. Xuanren as gently as possible."
"Then——Mihachi, I'll have to work hard for you. Now that you have taken over the task of assisting Shenshan in investigating this murder case, do you have any plans now?"
"Let's go to the latest victim's murder scene to check for clues. But before that—I want to find Ogata-san first."
"What do you want him for?" Lin frowned slightly.
"I've heard from Master Shenshan just now—just now, some officials have found a person who looks like Ogata Yidaosai in a ramen shop. I suspect that the person they found is not a person who looks like Ogata Yidaosai at all. Ogata Ittosai himself..."
"Brother Ogata is not a native of Kyoto, and he is not familiar with the place of life in Kyoto. If he is allowed to escape by himself, it will only be a matter of time before he is surrounded by officials."
"Brother Ogata is my friend. He is in trouble now. I can't just sit idly by."
"...If you want to help Ogata with a knife first, I have no objection, but where are you going to find him?"
