Zongman: Hong Kong's black ceiling but autistic, what should I do?

Fukuzawa Sakura lay on the bed and organized her thoughts, and the words Shi had said and everything she had just seen in the building emerged in her mind.

"Congratulations to all of you for standing out from the crowd of mortals and being selected by Kitsune no Sasuke to become a reserve Shinsengumi. I am the instructor of your group, you can call me Shi."

【Calling ordinary people "mortals", this person named Shi seems to look down on other people, or other people without spiritual power. But his attitude towards the reserve can be regarded as respect, because we will become official Shinsengumi in the future, which means that his status is equal to or lower than Shinsengumi. 】

[No, a person of lower status than the Shinsengumi should be more respectful, at least he would not look at the female student and me with lustful eyes, which means that his status is equal to that of the Shinsengumi, or perhaps he himself is the Shinsengumi.]

The Shinsengumi belongs to an organization called the Government of Time. They lead the Tsukumogami, who were born from swords, to travel through time and space to fight against the Time Travel Army, which wants to change history.

[The Time Government has absolute control here. All the people here work for this organization. This organization can summon Tsukumogami and even make them subject to the Shinsengumi. It can also allow them to travel back in time. Is it a supernatural power? Or some other energy system? Spiritual power?]

The Shinsengumi command the swordsmen to fight, so they need to have sufficient spiritual power and excellent combat qualities...

[They need to command the swordmen to fight, but the training content is just ordinary precautions and work content, and there is no training in military tactics and management skills. Is it because the reservists already have these abilities? Or can these abilities only be learned under the command of a formal Shinsengumi after passing the assessment? ]

The government of time encourages the Shinsengumi to fight in person, but they don’t have to go to the battlefield...

[It advocates that the Shinsengumi fight in person, which means that they will be given extra rewards if they fight in person, but they will die on the battlefield. When they die, do they return to the so-called "real world"? Is their body destroyed? Or is their soul destroyed?]

Apprentice Shinsengumi need to apprentice under outstanding official Shinsengumi until they "graduate" from their ranks.

[What are the graduation requirements? Is it decided by the official Shinsengumi or are there special assessment standards? In order to make the trainee Shinsengumi obey the official Shinsengumi, the assessment standards must at least have something to do with the official Shinsengumi's subjective evaluation.]

They live in a small courtyard called "Honmaru" which is connected to spiritual power. Each Honmaru is equipped with a butler, who can manage the affairs of the Honmaru and monitor the Shinsengumi. Before graduation, trainee Shinsengumi live in the Honmaru of the official Shinsengumi.

【Kitsunesuke monitors the situation of each Honmaru and manages all matters of Honmaru. Before "graduation", if you want to use Kitsunesuke, you need to obtain the consent of the master of the Honmaru, that is, the official Shinsengumi. In other words, before "graduation", if there is a conflict with the official Shinsengumi, Kitsunesuke, as the steward of the Honmaru, may reduce the food, clothing and expenses of the trainee Shinsengumi in the Honmaru at the instruction of the official Shinsengumi.】

Kitsunesuke is the channel connecting Honmaru and the real world. Everyone can only stay in Honmaru, and all contact with the real world can only be through Kitsunesuke. Conveying orders from above and reporting on the situation in Honmaru are also conveyed through Kitsunesuke.

[The government of the time imprisoned the so-called Shinsengumi here, and only allowed the Shinsengumi to use the consumable shikigami called "Kitsune no Suke" to pass written messages to others, which means that the content of the letter will also be monitored by Kitsune no Suke. ]

However, Kitsunesuke, being such an important communication tool, is often used by the Shinsengumi to vent their anger, to the point where the extent of Kitsunesuke's damage has reached the point where the Shikigami Club has reported this to the instructors, requesting that Kitsunesuke be damaged as little as possible.

[Then Kitsunesuke must have suffered a lot of damage, so the instructor specifically emphasized to the newcomers not to vent their anger on Kitsunesuke. Is it because the work of a Shinsengumi is at least very stressful and makes people anxious and irritable? Or, the Shinsengumi discovered that Kitsunesuke was monitoring them, and became suspicious of the people above them, so they used Kitsunesuke to vent their dissatisfaction with the people above them, and by the way, during the gap between the replacement of the old and new Kitsunesuke, they avoided the surveillance of the Time Government and did something that could not be discovered? Or is it the nature of the Shinsengumi...]

[However, as both of them are controlled by the Shinsengumi, the instructor only said not to harm Kitsunesuke, but did not say not to harm the sword man. 】

[Is it because no one hurts the sword man? Impossible. There will always be people who want to destroy things that they control.]

[Is it because the sword man's injuries will backfire on the Shinsengumi? Impossible, if that's the case, the sword man's injuries on the battlefield will also cause the Shinsengumi to be injured. If that's the case, the Shinsengumi's physical fitness must have certain requirements, and the instructor must have stated them in advance.]

[So that means, here, the status of the sword man may not be as good as the kitsune no suke who are mass-produced by the shikigami department. ]

[Why? The production of Kitsunesuke depends on the production of Shikigami, but what about the production of Sword Men? ]

Fukuzawa Sakura recalled the contents of the document.

[The sword man is made by forging raw materials and the spiritual power of the Shinsengumi. He kills and makes it himself, so it does not increase the workload of others. This is why the instructor did not explicitly say not to harm the sword man. ]

Working here can earn you a currency called Koban. The exchange rate between Koban and other currencies is 1:. The exchanged currency can be brought to people in the real world through Kitsunesuke.

【With such a high exchange rate, there must be many Shinsengumi who will send their wages to their families, but at least before my death, there has been no financial crisis caused by the sudden appearance of large sums of money. And if we only count the Shinsengumi working in this building, there are twelve floors of offices, and half of them send their wages home, which can increase inflation a lot, so the so-called "money sent home" is definitely not sent home. So where did this money go? Why use such an obvious lie to deceive the Shinsengumi?】

Fukuzawa Sakura recalled the financial statements she found in the Finance Department, and she knew exactly where the money had gone.

[After the Shinsengumi gave this money to Kitsunesuke, it was not sent to the human world, but returned to the hands of the Time Government once again.]

[Because the government's financial statements have been in the red for years, using this method to recover the wages paid to the Shinsengumi can make up for a considerable part of the deficit. ]

[Aren't you afraid of being discovered if you steal other people's money like this? As long as the Shinsengumi sends a letter home mentioning the salary to supplement the family income, the lie will be exposed soon.]

【So the letters that the so-called Shinsengumi sent home cannot be sent home at all. 】

Fukuzawa Sakura remembered the room called "Data Room" that she saw on the 12th floor.

[The so-called data room is just a device that uses spiritual power to collect the handwriting and writing style of the recipients of the Shinsengumi. After the Shinsengumi hands the letter to Kitsunesuke, Kitsunesuke will scan the content of the letter. After a period of time, the device in the data room will imitate the handwriting and tone of the recipients of the Shinsengumi based on the collected information, and then give it to Kitsunesuke to send to the Shinsengumi.]

[But Kitsunesuke can obviously travel to the present world and just deliver a letter that has no impact on the development of the world, so why did he lie? ]
