What made you have the illusion that I am the protagonist! ?

"It's too much to talk about running dogs..."

Fuyumi scratched his cheek and protested with a long voice.

Even if he had no intention of standing in the shogunate and the downfall faction headed by Satsuma and Changzhou, it was obvious that other people didn't think so.

Although there are also actions to help Himura conceal his appearance, whether it is making friends with the Shinsengumi and Kyoto Shojidai, or traveling with Tokugawa Iemo——Fuyuya's position has been made clear in the eyes of the Banbai faction.

Friend or foe.

It's that simple in this day and age.

Fuyuya knows exactly which side will be the winner in the future, but he has no intention of restraining his actions because of other people's resentment, so, more or less, when he realizes that Anpingya is being targeted, Fuyuya also does well The psychological expectation that things will develop in this way.

However, when he heard the other party clearly say that he was from the Changzhou Domain, he thought of Katsura Kogoro and Himura Badaosai of the Changzhou Domain—no, he already knew that his name was "Jianxin", and Dongya still Feeling a little downhearted.

Has it come to this point in the end...

The assassin in front of him——Shishio really had the sharpness and confidence unique to a young swordsman, he drew out the sword in his hand, and aimed it at Fuyuya.

"Draw your sword, Shigu! I can't solve you by drawing swords, I will be here... woo!"

Fuyuya can see from Shishio's real posture that he is also a top swordsman who has undergone rigorous training, and because he is much older than Himura, he may have even greater physical advantages.

...If it was normal, he would probably still just fight with swordsmanship like he did against Feicun before, and enjoy the duel with the top swordsmen of this era.

But this time, Fuyuya just tapped his toes, leaned down and passed through the opening on the opponent's side with an almost invisible movement, and then cut directly on his carotid artery with a hand knife.

Grasping the real collar of Shishio who was sluggish due to coma, Fuyuya let out a long and rare sigh.

"'Bakumatsu is a man's romance'...Ah, alas...But now I find that I can't seem to accept this kind of romance."

"Young man, don't be so pessimistic... If you always sigh, happiness will slip away."

Following the sound, the person who answered the conversation was a man dressed as a prodigal lying on the side of the street. He was lying face up on the side of the street like that, like many alcoholics who fell down on the street after a hangover and didn't wake up until now. A member of the group, a straw hat covered the sunlight of the day and also covered his face.

His demeanor blends perfectly into the background, he is obviously a living person, but he is like a member of the stage background, presumably Zhi Zhixiong really did not realize his existence, otherwise he would not have intercepted and killed him in this place.

However, Fuyuya had already noticed the existence of the other party, so he was not surprised.

Fuyumi smiled, "Sir, you are not a few years older than me, are you?... No, maybe you are younger than me." At least from the sound of the voice, the other party is not very old.

"Impossible, how old are you?" The man immediately swept away the deep image just now, took off the hat that blocked the sun and sat up, staring at Fuyuya.

It really was a man who was not yet 30 years old. From the appearance, he was probably a few years older than Fuyuya, but——

"Well, let me do the math..." Toomi squeezed his chin while recalling. He stayed in the good world for almost a year, Ed and Al's world for about two years, and the world of Dresden Stone Plate for a long time. Alright, nearly four years, plus the previous two relatively short time travels, it means that he lived at least 7 years longer than his physical age, so, "...should be 31 years old?"

"You are not talking nonsense, no matter how you look at it, you are younger than me..." The man muttered, scanning Fuyuya's expression with puzzled eyes, trying to find signs that he was lying, "... ...It doesn't sound like a lie, are you really older than me?"

"You haven't told me yet, how old are you?"

"Saitani Umetaro, 28 years old, his background is not worth mentioning, he is a wanderer who left the clan."

Saitani took the initiative to extend his hand to him, and Toya subconsciously extended his hand to shake him, "Ishitani Toya, Harima Kunirin."

"Hey, I've just arrived in Kyoto, and I've heard a lot about your deeds. It seems that it's not a lie that the owner of Anping House is accompanied by Westerners. Not everyone knows this etiquette." Saigu smiled. Said.

"Oh~ you mean shaking hands, it seems to be." Fuyumi came to her senses.

Indeed, in this era, not many people recognize the Western etiquette of shaking hands.

Not only that, the "romantic (ロマンチック)" in Toyomi's words just now is also a standard imported word, but this person can pick up the words, which means that he can understand the meaning of the words.

"I heard you sigh just now, and I couldn't help but make a noise. You seem to be very distressed, Ishitani-kun." Umetarou Saitani beckoned Fuyomi to sit down on a step by the street, and changed the subject, "If you don't mind, Can you tell me about it?"

Fuyuya unceremoniously threw Shi Zhixiong, who was still in a coma, aside, and sat down, "It's nothing to worry about, it's just that this world is not as interesting as I imagined, and it makes me feel a little discouraged." ...This is probably the so-called Lord Ye is a good dragon."

Although Toya used a rare Chinese allusion, Saitani Umetaro obviously understood, nodded and said: "The gap between ideal and reality, this is a hurdle that must be overcome in life?"

It's rare to meet someone who can talk, and Fuyumi also said a lot: "Ahahaha, although I understand this, but it's too difficult to do it. The Changzhou Domain where this guy belongs, once told me It has something to do with it, so knowing that the Changzhou clan sent assassins to kill me, I was still a little injured... After all, I really can't adapt to the standards of Kyoto. Such methods as assassination..." As he spoke, Fuyuya shook his head.

Although it is not the first time he has traveled to a different world that is different from his own time, but before that, he went to either the "future" that was pushed back by the timeline, or a different world that had no connection with the historical line at all. It was the only time he went to the "past" He didn't have such a deep feeling after staying for a short time.

After coming to this era, he was indeed excited at first, but after the excitement passed, Fuyuya soon felt an unprecedented out of place.

——To put it simply, it means that the three views are inconsistent.

In the world he has been to, there are people who kill each other for the Holy Grail or great spirits, there are people who sacrifice a country's people for the ambition of becoming a god, and there are people like the colorless king who conspire to kill others , However, no matter which world it is, no one will take these people's actions as-"naturally".

However, this era is different. It doesn’t matter whether you are numb or used to it, because you can draw a knife to kill someone if you disagree with one word, and use methods such as assassination and assassination to carry out your own thoughts. Such behavior is "" Of course".

Fuyuya just complained casually, he didn't expect that he was also born in this era, and has long been accustomed to all this by subtle influence, so he could understand, but he didn't expect the other party to nod with a worried expression on his face.

"Yeah, I've felt the same for a long time—this country is definitely sick!" He clenched his fists, and something seemed to pop out of his eyes, "The era of self-government with one feudal domain as the goal has been too long, so that To make everyone so narrow-minded — that's not what this country should be."

After listening to Saigu's impassioned words, Dongmi stood up, patted the dust, and was about to pull Zhi Zhixiong away for real, he had already remembered who this person was.

"Then, thank you for today, and listened to me for a while... Let's meet again next time, Mr. Sakamoto Ryoma."

"Oh my, I was seen through..." Saitani Umetaro——Sakamoto Ryoma looked at the back of Fuyomi's departure, touched his cheek, and said with a bit of smug pride: "—Could it be that I am actually super famous of?"
