That stupid aunt with a knife man's shell [Comprehensive]

475.

How should I put it, if I try my best to cross time, just because I am worried that something will happen to some blades, I really arrive at the destination, but see all the existences that were supposed to be there leave, it is a psychological imbalance for everyone.

After looking at the various facilities and work progress in Honmaru for a while, Onimaru speculated that Touken should be the front and rear of him. He came back not long after Touken left, so he did half of the cleaning and half of the roasting. Biscuits and snacks are scattered, it looks like the person concerned just left for a while, and will come back soon to continue making.

Judging from the fact that some half-baked snacks were put into the ice box and the half-dried clothes were taken back into the clothes bucket, it can be seen that the swordsmen did not leave in a hurry, they left in an orderly and purposeful way, knowing that they I will be away for a while, but I also know that this time will not be too long.

Toujian left on his own initiative, acting... Onimaru couldn't tell if there was any confusion, but in short, it should be fairly peaceful, and it shouldn't be a situation where he knew his identity and then left angrily.

Onimaru smiled wryly, he was relieved knowing that the swords would come back.

"City Lord! You are finally back!"~~~~o(╥﹏╥)o~~~

Just when Onimaru was looking for clues in Honmaru, Suzuki Yoshiro came to Honmaru and happened to see him. After seeing Onimaru's shadow from afar, Suzuki sprinted and knelt down and hugged Onimaru's thigh. It made him shout the effect of calling the soul... ==

"...If you have something to say, don't get excited." He reached out and patted Suzuki Yoshiro's head, and Onimaru tried his best to comfort the teenage boy in a gentle tone.

"Everyone... Everyone thought that you, the city lord, abandoned us..." Yoshiro is also a character that Onimaru uses more among the human warriors. After a while, he calmed down his exposed emotions. spoke.

"Half a day ago, I found out that all your direct retainers had evacuated Edo Castle, and they all disappeared out of thin air. Regarding the departure of the adults, the adults did not explain the reason. At that time, I found that Ninomaru was unguarded, so I took the liberty to come in After inquiring about the situation, I found out that in your palace, there are only the Hall of the Hime Higakiri and the Hall of the Three Ritsuki Hime, and the rest of the adults have disappeared... The Hall of the Hidekiri Hime said that all the adults have something to do, and they will not come back until another day."

Suzuki Yoshiro said something backwards, but Onimaru did understand.

"Higakiri and the others are still there? Where are they?" Onimaru couldn't stand still, he wanted to know what happened, was it because of his identity leak, or the swords...?

"Himiden are handling various matters in the castle at the Royal Palace. Because all the adults have left, various matters in the city have been interrupted and difficult to operate, so everyone has come to discuss matters with Himeden." Suzuki was behind Onimaru One step to the side, while reporting the changes in the city to Onimaru, he answered various questions about Onimaru.

Before walking to the Royal Palace, Onimaru had almost figured out the situation in the castle.

When Onimaru appeared in the palace area, a group of men wearing samurai uniforms and bald samurai hairpins seemed to have seen an old mother whom they had not seen for a long time, a lover who was struggling to survive on the line of life and death, and a person who owed a large amount of debt. The creditors (?!) rushed towards Onimaru, just like the exaggerated Suzuki Yoshiro just now, holding his thigh, snot and tears, telling the fear and despair they thought they had been thrown away.

If it was said that Onimaru was still in comfort when he was hugged by Yoshiro just now, now that he is covered with snot all over his trouser legs, he just wants to kill all these nasty things...

"Hey, hey, hey! What does it look like!! Since the city owner has returned, you should go to work quickly! The original adults have left, but we can't leave all our work behind!" He is Onimaru's confidant, and his majesty is good. Although the samurai still looked at Onimaru with some reluctance, they gradually dispersed, allowing Onimaru to see the crescent moon that was about to be overwhelmed by the documents of various events.

"Where's Higiri?" Onimaru asked softly after sitting down to take over Mikazuki's work.

"Because there are subordinates in other departments, but almost all of the defense of Edo is taken over by us, so Hikakiri and Nura-sama took people to inspect the city." After being liberated from the official document, Mikazuki rubbed it with a sigh of relief. Eyes, looking at Onimaru who is proficient in replying to various documents, he smiled wryly. This is Onimaru's usual life, the never-ending, overwhelming work, the need to conceal his abnormality, and the relationship between humans and monsters. The balance and compromise between them, as a human being, is really excellent.

No, this is the Warring States Era, where all heroes came together. In this era, a city, a power, and the ability to control the general situation of the world are already outstanding human beings who do not need to be recognized by others.

Just like their former master, even if he put aside his hidden identity, Onimaru is a hero that they can be proud of and miss.

"Ah... I just couldn't bear to do it for a long time. Thinking that you usually do this, I feel that we are really shameless." San Riyue classified the processed files, and then distributed them to waiting people according to their importance. attendants.Because usually the entire Honmaru is firmly controlled by the swordsmen, there is no outsider, and now everyone has evacuated, Suzuki hurriedly found the daughters of various samurai to serve the castellan's wives, and he himself came to serve as Onimaru's errands and servants.

"I don't usually have so many things. You have already shared a lot. Otherwise, how could I miss work for a month to deal with personal affairs." Onimaru handed the written document to Mikazuki with one hand, and picked up the next one skillfully with the other.

"You can't say that." Sankaiyue patted Onimaru's head, "In this era, the private affairs of the castellan are everyone's official affairs, and it would be our dereliction of duty to let you solve them yourself."

"But in the final analysis, we don't have that kind of relationship." Onimaru signed his name and special symbol under the document, and said in a normal tone.

"..." Sankaiyue paused, and after coming over for a while, he asked Guimaru nonchalantly: "Why didn't you ask me, where did everyone go?"

"Would you like to say it?" When he first came back, he was really nervous and nervous, but after knowing that Higakiri and Sankazuki were staying, and after the disturbance of those human warriors whose names he couldn't name, Onimaru calmed down.

"You also have your own considerations. If you want to tell me, you will naturally say it. If you don't want to say it, you can bypass the problem if I ask you. Why don't you just do your own thing." He kept talking, and took the time to write in his hands. Skipping some unimportant ones, Onimaru quickly dealt with the urgent ones, and then classified the rest to Mikazuki according to functions and departments.

Mikazuki didn't have time to think about how to answer Onimaru. Although he said that he didn't tell Onimaru about the subjugation team to prevent Onimaru from being sad, but if he didn't say it now, it seemed to make Onimaru sad too.Moreover, Guimaru's words already implied that he didn't want to hear anything other than the truth, so he fell silent.

During this period, Onimaru asked Suzuki Yoshiro to make a list of personnel in various departments. Onimaru, who had the largest source of information in Edo Castle, unceremoniously appointed newcomers who did not know anything about it. Fill it in, and then take this opportunity to promote Jilang, because Jilang will be the one who will be led by the samurai in the future, and his current position and knowledge are a bit low.

It took a whole day to redistribute the rights of Edo Castle. Onimaru took this opportunity to put some people who were placed in Edo by the current administration on the bright side, give them rights and positions, and let them do more things.

Of course, due to his current troublesome relationship with Shizheng, these people did not enter Onimaru's cronies.

"It's finally over." Mikazuki laughed, looked at the lit lights in the room, and naturally covered Onimaru with a thick haori, "I haven't eaten dinner yet, do you want to eat some snacks first?"

"Ah, then it's really time for me to come." Mustache, wearing a brightly colored hoodie, came from outside, and behind him was wearing five clothes?Dressing?In short, she is a waitress who is dressed more than mustaches, but is still shivering from the cold. She is holding a red-painted and white-plum food box in her hand, and the food box exudes a gentle and faint demonic power.

At first glance, it looks like food sold by monsters.

"Go down." Nodding to the waitress, Onimaru took the food box.

These waitresses are actually quite pitiful. As the daughters of samurai, they usually don’t leave the gate, and the biggest exercise they do is probably playing flower cards at home. Non-human beings are convenient for activities and wear less clothes than the city lord. As maids, they naturally can't wear more mustaches and brighter colors than the mistress's mustache, so in the cold weather in early February, He was as cold as a quail, and had to run around with Mustache.Even if Tokiri wanted to show mercy, it would be the limit to ask the maid to wear more clothes.

After all, the rules of the times are here, if Hikakiri lets her go back, the maid's samurai father doesn't know what he will do to her.

"Where did Hikakiri go all day today? There are a lot of things that no one is doing in the imperial palace." Mikazuki said with a smile to Hikakiri.

"Ah, it's not my job to grow mushrooms." Mustakiri smiled softly.

"Of course I have to work after getting paid." San Riyue laughed again.

"Hmm... wages?" Higakiri raised his head and thought for a while, and turned to Onimaru together with Mikazuki, who was suddenly a little dazed, "So, do we still have wages?"

Onimaru: ...

"Each Bazai Shizheng has its own account, haven't you noticed?" Onimaru, who had been entangled (distressed) for a while because of paying the salaries of the swordsmen of the crusade team, rolled his eyes unceremoniously.

It was because he didn't want to withdraw money from his account - that would give him the illusion that these swords were his private property, otherwise why would he keep them.He just worked out a set of salary mechanism exclusively for the crusade team. Whether it is the completion of various tasks of current affairs or the management and operation of the crusade team, the corresponding money will be deducted from the public account in the end and divided into separate accounts for each blade. , and spend as they go.

By the way, his own salary is also drawn from this public account, but I don't know if it is his illusion, he always feels that it is not normal to have a lot of money in his account, and since the construction of Edo, Except for Yushou, he basically couldn't find the opportunity to use the money in the account. It seemed that he didn't know when, all the things he needed, enjoyed, and luxurious things around him were ready before he thought of it.

Even after this distribution of Nianyu, Onimaru received more Nianyu than he sent out - from swordsmen who knew his real age, and some old-school sword groups who said New Year's gifts.Not only was the purse not deflated, it was also full again.

It seems that there is a subtle feeling of being nurtured, is it an illusion?

477.

After having dinner with Mikazuki and Higakiri, the three of them changed into simple clothes, and Onimaru came to the underworld with two blades. The human affairs were dealt with, and the underworld had just been completed, so naturally there were as many things to do.

Originally, Sanriyue had already made up her mind to pretend to be a fool, and decided not to send her to continue working overtime, but as soon as she passed through the gate and came to the underworld, she was almost blown into a fool by a gust of wind...

"This is..." Clutching the wall with one hand, and inserting her fingers deeply into the wall, Sanriyue looked solemnly at the tornado hundreds of meters high outside the Honmaru in the underworld.

Hidekiri was also clasped to the wall with one hand, while holding Onimaru in his arms, who couldn't grasp the fixed point, looking at the figure with black wings in the distant storm, his eyes were as bright as those who finally saw a toy Little child, even the sharp edge of the knife inside can't stop it: "The big monster who controls the wind, is it time for the ghost to retreat.... It's a pity that I..."

Mustache's eyes dimmed, and his expression became calm again, "Well, but it's really not polite to be so presumptuous in someone else's house."

Onimaru looked up, the one who was wearing a blue and white safari suit, short blond hair, and a pair of wings that were always losing feathers, flying in the sky and suspected to have caused the storm, wasn't he the big tengu he had seen not long ago!

Speaking of which, after the completion of the underworld, Tamamo-mae and Shuten-douji came with Seimei's departure. If he hadn't met Otengu in the future, he thought Otengu would not come.

Coincidentally, the Underworld is short of a thug to maintain order, so let him persuade (beat) the big tengu.

By the way, let's vent the grievances accumulated during those bad things during this period!
