From Hijikata's point of view, although Kirino Toshiaki in front of him—after so many years, he really doesn't remember what the "Hintoza Hanjiro" looked like back then—he doesn't look like one of the Four Great Masters in his ramblings at all. One, but his skills were not completely lost, and he still caused them some trouble.

After exchanging swords with Kiyohara Yukiba, Hijikata felt that he should take the responsibility of fighting the "Hintoza Hanjiro" in close quarters - not only because he was better than her, but also because Because she was injured, but as a man, it is impossible for him to hide behind his woman and just sit back and watch her fight alone! ——So after that "Hintozahanjiro" set up his own sword again, Hijikata rushed forward with the same sword.

It's not that he didn't think about whether this cunning "Hanjiro Renzhan" would arrange some ambushers in the nearby forest as before, wait for them to fight, and then wait for the opportunity to shoot him or Kiyohara Yukiha.But now Kiyohara Yukiha has set up the rifle/gun he seized from that despicable ambusher, and is concentrating on guarding the surroundings, and he always believes that when he is fighting, it is foolproof to leave his back to her to guard against of.

...Although on the slope of Liushan, his eyes were almost covered by grief and anger, he rushed into the enemy's line and beheaded bravely as if desperate; but when he calmed down and recalled the events of that day, he did not forget When he swung his knife among the enemies, he heard the crisp gunshots from behind him.

The interval between those few gunshots was just right, neither because he was too nervous, he would shoot indiscriminately to waste bullets or hit him by mistake, nor would the enemy soldiers seize the opportunity to rush up to him because of aiming for too long Cause trouble; after every gunshot, an enemy with a gun fell down, and in an instant, all he had to solve was the enemies with knives like him.

And if it was just a competition of swordsmanship, the deputy chief of the Shinsengumi would not lose to anyone.

Now, too—

The "Hanjiro Renzhan" of that year came aggressively, and the offensive was urgent and fierce; even Hijikata had a little difficulty coping with it for a while-after all, he was no longer the young man who had reached the peak of physical fitness and combat power ten years ago.

After living in seclusion in the deep mountains near Hakodate for ten years, even though he still often practiced wielding a sword, he did not have a dojo, nor did he have a companion with excellent swordsmanship to often join his hands; in previous battles, his swordsmanship, experience and The fighting spirit was already enough to deal with those enemies, but now, facing "Ren Zhan Hanjiro" - a guy who practiced diligently and maintained better swordsmanship and physical fitness, Hijikata felt a huge pressure almost immediately pressure.

……hateful!

Ten years ago, he was worthy of a battle with the general of the ghost clan, but now he has fallen to the point where even a desperate rogue is hard to beat? !

Earthwork felt anxious for a while.

Of course, he won't fall to the point where he can't handle it for a while.But the situation of being unable to attack for a long time cannot be pleasant, not to mention that the opponent in front of him seems to be more physically fit than himself and can cope with it without hindrance.

Dangdang several times in a row, the sound of gold and iron made by the collision of blades was very clear on the battlefield where the sound of guns and guns had gradually faded away.

Tufang failed to succeed with one blow, and retreated back to his original position, still holding the knife, but his face became even more ugly.

Calm down and think about it, the opponent used a silver bullet that can injure Luo Sha.Although they have been hunted down for several months and have been hiding in this deep mountain for nearly a month, it can be said that they are about to run out of ammunition and food; but it is still unknown how many silver bullets are left in the opponent's hand, and they cannot take risks.

In addition, the opponent's physical fitness is really good...?Even though he hadn't dealt with "Hanjiro Renzhan" many times back then, he could still roughly estimate the other party's age - if calculated by a man around 40 years old, that guy's physical fitness is really good... ...not very real? !

It's almost like-a young man in his 20s pretending to be a 40-year-old "Kirino Toshiki"? !

Tufang's thoughts moved slightly, and he immediately shouted:

"...You are not 'Ren Zhan Hanjiro'! Who are you?!"

In fact, he is not absolutely sure, he just has doubts in his heart - but when confronting an enemy, if there is a glimmer of hope to disturb the opponent's mind and will, he will do it. This is his principle.

Although he is one of the well-known swordsmen of the Shinsengumi, he does not stick to those rigid principles when facing the enemy, and he often uses coups (?) such as "smearing the earth and blinding the eyes"; so now when I think of this If the matter is called out immediately, at least it will make the other party react a little slower and reveal flaws in a daze, right?

...However, what happened next was simply beyond his expectations.

The man on the opposite side, who was still aggressive and showing his teeth and claws, was really taken aback when he heard this!

The next moment, his face suddenly turned pale!

His right arm moved, and for a moment seemed to want to take a step forward to swing the knife; but he only staggered at last, and his right hand waved feebly halfway up, then dropped again.

This burst of internal changes (?) seemed to surprise him too, he lowered his head in disbelief, staring at his right hand and legs.

The next moment, as if he refused to believe this fact, he took another step, raised his right hand unsteadily, barely raised the knife above his head, and then swung the knife with trembling arms as if he was drunk. Falling--

However, this time he swung the knife softly and did not touch the corner of Tufang's clothes.But Kirino Toshiaki in front of him seemed to have exhausted all his strength, his right hand dropped suddenly, and his body shook as if he could no longer maintain his balance; he had to poke the tip of the Taidao down into the soil , With the help of this posture, the center of gravity of the body is supported.

Then, he lowered his eyes and gasped violently for a few times, as if the few attempts to swing the knife just now had exhausted all his strength, he was exhausted, and the expression on his face showed an old state--

Wait, old? !

Kirino Toshiaki slowly raised his head.

Then, he saw a clear look of astonishment on the face of the fallen Goddess in front of him.

At this moment, in Liu Quan's eyes, although the face of the fellow judge who pretended to be "Kirino Toshiaki" has not changed much - there are not even a few more wrinkles - but his eyelids seem to be the same. In an instant, he drooped a little due to fatigue, and the folds between his brows became much looser as if he was tired; although after a battle, there were some dirt marks on his face, but that couldn't cover up the flaws on his face. The gray color.

Now, his whole person looks like a skin that has fallen into decline and cannot be retrieved. The high-spirited look just now has disappeared at this moment, his face is gray and unbelievable, and that arrogant and arrogant aura Also disappeared without a trace.

Hijikata was surprised to see this originally formidable enemy change his appearance in an instant, but he soon realized that Kiyohara Yukiha behind him didn't seem so shocked by this.

He still didn't dare to relax his vigilance for a moment, arched his body slightly, tightened his fingers holding the handle of the knife, and asked in a deep voice without looking back: "What... happened to him?"

However, she did not answer him directly, but said softly in a tone mixed with surprise and exclamation: "...So, this is what will happen after being 'discovered'—"

Earthwork:?

However, Kirino Toshiaki seemed to understand.There was a look of resentment in his eyes for a moment.

"No, it's impossible—!" he hissed sharply.

But the strong confusion, fear and wavering emanating from him, even Hijikata, who didn't understand what happened, could clearly feel it.

It was as if he felt her nasal chuckle behind him at this moment.

"...It seems that you didn't listen to the training when you entered the job, did you?" She asked with a smile, even the killing intent that she just exuded because she was concentrating on guarding the surrounding situation with a gun in her hand became very serious. Faded.

"'When performing missions in the world of history and missions, you must not reveal your true identity... once—'"

She repeated a certain passage in the "Rules for the Judgment of God" issued by the Government of Time, but because the earth party was right in front of her, she paused several times in just one sentence, and in the end she could only stop altogether ; for it follows—

"Once the natives of this era discover that the true identity of the God-inspector is not a resident of this era, history is very likely to immediately produce an exclusive reaction, which will greatly weaken the power of the God-inspector himself, and eventually exclude the history of that era."

There is a more icy explanation at the back.

"...There is no way to save yourself. Therefore, the judge should act with extreme caution at all times when performing tasks."

This passage is often overlooked by people, because in fact, the general god judges do not need to go out, just assign a team to pay the gods; even if they really want to go out to defend the history of a certain era, they only need to fight the time-traveling army .It is actually an extremely rare situation for such a protracted task to find an identity that is enough to pretend to be lurking.

...However, the history that the Government of Time is responsible for maintaining, and the so-called "Familiar World" that is maintained by a certain force represented by the system bacteria, can meet and merge, which means that the situation has reached an extremely urgent moment. .

So this time, whether it was the "Kirino Toshiaki" sent by the Toshino Government, or Liu Quan, who was temporarily recalled by the system bacteria, they were actually going out alone, and they were not allowed to bring Fusangshen to help out in a critical situation.

In fact, that is to say, if Fu Sangshen usually goes out with him, even if the judge loses his senses and takes reckless risks for a while, and may violate the principle, then Fu Sangshen will dissuade him—just like Sanri Yue Zongjin did to Liu Quan did.

But now, in this era, there is no such person who will stop "Kirino Toshiaki" from doing as he pleases.And the identity chosen by "Kirino Toshiki" wants to influence the course of history—to be precise, influence the various decisions of the Satsuma Army—it is so convenient and easy; no one will doubt that he has always been loyal to Xixiangdian The mainstay of the Xixiang faction who has followed to the end, is actually just to ensure that history can progress to the end as it is——

However, now, the power of history is finally coming back to him.

Thinking of this, Liu Quan suddenly had an idea, and seemed to realize something!

She blurted out: "You are 'Kirino Toshiaki'! So, you have to die here too—! Because that's what's going to happen—"

Almost at the moment when she blurted out this conclusion, the facial features on Kirino Toshiki's face in front of her suddenly distorted.

He was aware of this fact almost at the same time as her—the "Kirino Toshiki" he replaced must die here today, but the identity of "Qingyuan Yuba" she used is very likely to have been forged in the first place, a historical fact. Characters that don't exist!

and so--

If there is no interference from the external forces intervened by the time retrograde army, the power of history itself would not allow him, "Toshiki Kirino", to live in violation of historical facts!However, she, "the only female member of the Shinsengumi" Yukiha Kiyohara, who could never have appeared in history, will not be restrained and punished by the power of history, so she doesn't have to die here!

It turns out...the wheels of history are rolling by, will he be the only one who will be crushed here? !

The unwillingness in Toshiki Kirino's heart rolled up and burned like a prairie fire almost instantly!Without even thinking about it, he decisively threw away the knife in his hand, quickly stretched out his hand into his arms, and raised his hand again within a second——

In Liu Quan's memory, what happened in that short moment is like an infinite slow motion; the time is stretched very long, the sun is dazzling, the distance between them seems to disappear in an instant, She was so close that she could clearly see Kirino Toshiaki's twisted and crowded facial features, his ferocious and malicious face——

Also, his actions.

His movements are like slow motion, and every frame of images that his hand slides in the air is clearly reflected on her retina; The thing that was pulled out from the hospital was small in shape, with a cold metallic light on the surface, and the muzzle pointed at her and the deputy chief——

It's a hand/gun!A pistol/gun of that shape and model that shouldn't exist in this day and age!
