[Gintama] Where is the soft girl that was agreed?

It always rains in Kyoto in late autumn.

The continuous drizzle filled the gray and gloomy sky, and the streets and alleys where gunpowder smoke could not be seen. The damp breath gathered along the ground and entered the cell. Rats and cockroaches ran past, and the straw and walls were soaked by the rain. limp.I don't know if it was affected by the weather. Although standing under the relatively dry eaves, Kutiao Natsumi felt that the whole person seemed to be soaked in the drizzle that could not be escaped. Don't bother.

Recently, I often think about the past, my brother's affairs, Qiannai's affairs, his affairs, and the master's repeated sentence-why hold the knife.

Although it can't be called a nightmare, it can be recalled even if you close your eyes and open your eyes.

"Pa-ta" is the clear sound of water dripping from the eaves and hitting the bluestone slabs, and the splashing water leaves clear water marks on the slabs under the eaves.

Silently counting the drops of water splashed on the stone slab, when I counted to No. 30 two drops, I heard the heavy sound of the chain dragging behind me, and the crisp sound of the Zen staff swinging.

"Please come in, Lord Kujo." There was not much emotion in the hazy and respectful tone.

Jiutiao Xiashi turned around, followed up with the one who was leading the way, and walked inside.

The road is long and dark, and the dim candlelight on the wall is flickering, elongating the shadows of the two people one behind the other. From the cells on both sides, there may be the dull sound of chains being dragged, or the smell and blood of corpses taste.

"Tianzhaoyuan has received the list of attendants." Turning a deaf ear to the cries and curses that came from the cell from time to time, Oboro broke the long silence between the two, "I don't know that as the person in charge of this escort mission, What is Master Kujo's plan?"

"It's one of the people in charge." After Kujo Xia Shi corrected it, he responded with a lack of interest, "The order I received was to cooperate with the shogunate and provide detailed travel routes and delivery personnel. I think Oboro, who is also in charge, has already It’s right to make a decision, and I won’t be too lazy to think about it.”

"I don't dare to make an arbitrary decision." After a vague pause for a while, he said lightly, "And this time the plan is not decided by me alone, but by the people of heaven."

Gods?Is that the Celestial Organization that secretly manipulates the shogunate?

After Jiutiao Xia Shi was stunned for a moment, he realized that the person in front of him stood still and shouted, "Muku."

A little girl with blue hair and red eyes in a pink kimono held a book and glanced at him, then hurried away with her head down.

"I'm doing this kind of meaningless thing again." Hazy looked indifferently at the gray-haired man sitting on the ground with his back facing him in the prison - he just picked up the stones on the ground and wrote something on the wall.

Kujo Natsuki looked over, although it was just from the back, and he had never seen this person before, but it is not difficult to guess who appeared here at this time, who would make Amaterasu-in Naraku's oboro stop. It's teaching that little girl how to read.

"Songyang." Obscure immediately called out the name.

"Whether it is meaningful or not is relative to the individual. For that girl, it may come in handy when this knowledge will come in handy." Yoshida Songyang stood up slowly, turned around, and smiled calmly He asked, "Is it time to transfer?"

"..." Long was silent for a while, then nodded, opened the cell door, and handcuffed Yoshida Songyang.

Jiutiao Xiashi suddenly felt upset and irritable, and walked out first: "I'll wait for you outside."

Yoshida Shoyo's eyes seemed to fall on her for a moment.

In the afternoon of the same day, a batch of "felons" who were originally detained in the Kyoto prison will be sent to Edo for execution. Kujo Natsushi doesn't know how many unjust, false and wrong cases there are, and he doesn't have the time to find out.Among them, the most important thing is to use the Matsushita private school as the starting point, and form a party to benefit Yoshida Matsuyo.

Most of the prisoners were guarded by heavy soldiers, and they left by air by spaceship.Yoshida Shoyo was the only one who was secretly escorted by a small number of elites and left from the land.

In addition, fake ships and troops left Kyoto from all directions to confuse the public.

Although all warriors with excellent sword skills were selected for the land march, land is much easier to attack than open space. With the equipment of the barbarian army, without the support of the shogunate, it is undoubtedly more difficult for them to attack the spaceship. Disaster.

Therefore, she questioned the decision made by the shogunate and the Heavenly Daoists. Before leaving Kyoto, she asked Qiannai to investigate.

The troops who were meaninglessly consuming their will received the news that the air force was intercepted when they arrived in Nagoya, and the follow-up troops quickly replenished and rescued to minimize the loss as much as possible.However, although the interception of the shogunate this time caused a lot of losses, the strange thing is that the other party's losses were extreme, and even the whereabouts of several leaders were not caught. It is hard to believe that there is no internal response.

But Kujo Xiashi soon knew that the leader of the Air Force's anti-barbarian army was not there. On the night of arriving in Nagoya, when most people thought that the anti-barbarian army was targeting the air force and were slacking off, a fire broke out outside the room.

Kujo Natsu quickly issued an order using the pager, and immediately rushed to the room where Yoshida Shoyo was detained.This is a certain hotel in the town. Those who stayed in the hotel pretended to be ordinary people according to the instructions. In order to make them look no different from ordinary tourists, now that the "Abolition of Knife Order" has been issued, they have no conspicuous appearance. Hanging a samurai|knife on their waists, and they were not very close together, which also led to their emergency response not being timely enough after an accident.

If Kujo Natsumi was only suspicious at the beginning, then today's sudden situation made her feel uneasy-the Celestial Being or the shogunate had some kind of plan.

In terms of status and status, the public family is above the samurai family in Japan, but in terms of real power, the samurai family who controls the world's soldiers and horses obviously has more right to speak, so although the status of the public is not low, the people in the shogunate treat her on the surface. It is also respectful enough, but Jiujo Xiashi knows that she is completely excluded.

The reason why she was allowed to participate in Yoshida Songyang's escort mission this time was probably just to make the public's side not too embarrassed.

When she rushed to the door, the door lock of the room had been broken, and she did not affect the people who appeared in the room.

But the other party looked at her, dumbfounded, and shouted in surprise: "Xia, Xia Sang?"

Is it the Ghost Squad or the troops of Gintoki and Katsura Kotaro?

Unlike her performance, she is gentle and serious to everyone. Most of the time, Kujo Natsumi actually can't remember the people around her.

Probably a bad memory.

Thinking this way, Kujo Natsumi breathed a sigh of relief when he noticed that Yoshida Matsuyo hadn't left yet, and slashed with the knife in his hand without stopping.

This chaos ended with more than ten casualties from both the enemy and ourselves.After shaking the blood, the girl put the knife back into its sheath and stood in the blood on the ground, watching her subordinates come in and drag the corpses out one by one. It seemed that a few people slipped out just now.

When Zaiyu's figure appeared at the door, Jiujo Xiashi, who was about to leave, suddenly heard the person behind him say: "Your knife is lost."

He stopped unconsciously, Jiutiao Xiashi didn't intend to respond at first, and there is no point in saying more, anyway, this person is going to die sooner or later, but the words of negation subconsciously came out: "I didn't. "

It was so blunt, as if he was telling himself to make himself tougher.

Aware of this, Jiutiao Xia Shi slightly pursed her lips, and took a step forward, not intending to stay this time.

But Yoshida Shoyo's judgment was still accurately conveyed to her ears: "With your swordsmanship, if it weren't for confusion, those few people would not be able to escape. Your sword is faster than your own. choice."

——"Xia Shi...why hold the sword?"

In the memory, the sigh-like words of that person echoed softly in her mind again and again, like a spider web, binding her tighter and tighter.

To draw the knife for the sake of the Kutiao family - I don't know why, this time, the unswerving answer in her heart was stagnant and collapsed for a moment.
