Presumably this is the moment she uses her powers?Then she will be regarded as a monster, maybe thrown into prison or something, and the deputy chief's favorability will plummet to negative infinity visually; as expected, her only hope of continuing to complete the main task in the future is to escape from prison and go to Hakodate Ambush to the side, and before the deputy commander plans to go to the Bentendaiba where the Shinsengumi is in charge of defense to die, he will be knocked unconscious and hidden until the end of the whole war, right? !

... In an instant, countless unrelated thoughts flooded into her mind like swiping the screen.After she finally made up her mind to throw away the sword that she couldn't regain, she raised her hands and silently recited [The monster in front of me will stop immediately, Hun Dan! 】One second before, a voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Hey! Are you still alive?!"

Someone rushed in!Almost at the same time, a knife flashed in front of her eyes, and only heard a swish—it was the sound of the blade splitting the air.Immediately, the dagger directly slashed into the body of the Rakshasa soldier on the opposite side.

Liu Quan's spirit suddenly lifted.Perhaps some potential in her body was stimulated by this ecstasy of turning a corner, she pulled her hands out forcefully—with a whoosh, her long sword finally broke away from the opponent's body and was pulled out!

Liu Quan himself didn't expect this last attempt to be so smooth. Without any mental preparation, his body's center of gravity was unstable, his upper body leaned back violently, and he stepped back several times involuntarily. His bare feet stepped on the ground. There was blood on the tatami, slipped under his feet, and fell to the ground.

Fortunately, the floor was covered with tatami mats, so she didn't feel any pain from the fall, so she jumped up almost immediately with one hand, holding the sword in her right hand and posing to meet the enemy again.

At the same time, she heard a slightly sullen voice beside her, and it was from the same person who had saved her life just in time.

"Hey, what's going on with you? You're in such a mess?"

Shinsengumi Deputy Chief Toshizo Hijikata held the "Izumi Mori Kanesada" in both hands and stood in front of her.Under this position, she could only see the stern lines on his taut profile.

Liu Quan's subconscious first words were an apology. "Vice Chief, I'm sorry..."

"Hey, who is sorry for the deputy chief again?" There was a light-hearted inquiry from outside the door, and Harada Sanosuke, Nagakura Shinpachi, and Todo Heisuke immediately appeared at the door.

Unexpectedly, that teasing question was actually asked by Yongcang.But when he saw Liu Quan's appearance, he also blurted out in surprise: "Hey, what's going on with you?!"

Seeing that so many people came, it should be enough to deal with a Rakshasa soldier, Liu Quan felt relieved.It wasn't until this time that she had the time to look down at herself. If she didn't look at it, she was shocked.

When she rushed out of the room, she was only wearing white pajamas, and she was barefoot and without socks.Just now, after a few tricks with this Rakshasa soldier, he fell on the ground and stood up with his hands on the ground, so now both his white pajamas and his hands and feet are stained with blood, which really looks a bit scary .

Looking at it this way, she herself was a little embarrassed, and explained in a low voice: "Well... I ran out straight away when I heard Qianhe's call, but I didn't expect a crazy Rakshasa to be here... I know this It doesn't look very reliable...well, is Chizuru alright?"

Harada smiled, and said in a tone trying to comfort her: "It's okay, it's okay, leave the matter here to us. How about you go out and go to the next door with her to heal the wound?"

Liu Quan looked down at his clothes again, only to be belatedly aware of it.

"I'm not injured, it's probably Qianzuru's blood..." She sighed, sheathed her sword as expected, took a step back and gave her place to Harada, and watched the three of them, together with Hijikata, take the hair out. The frenzied Rakshasa soldiers surrounded them tightly, and swung their sabers almost at the same time——

Three swords and the tip of a long spear pierced into the body of the Raksha soldier at the same time, and the Raksha soldier struggled a few times on the ground before dying.Seeing this scene, Liu Quan couldn't help exhaling, and finally relaxed his physical and mental vigilance and tension.It wasn't until this time that she felt a sudden sense of fatigue.

"I'd better go see how Chizuru is doing—"

Before she could finish her sentence, there was an octave-high scream at the door.

"Ah! What's going on here?!"

... Kokotaro Ito!How could he appear here? !

For a moment, almost everyone showed a look of astonishment, even Hijikata showed surprise and disgust on his face, his brows were furrowed tightly, and he let out a "tss" sound mixed with chagrin and impatience.

Yidong ignored the obvious expressions of disgust on everyone's faces. Standing at the door, he first looked up and down at Liu Quan, who was covered in blood, and then at the situation in the room. His voice became a little higher.

"What happened to the soldiers over there?! Ah, the room was stained with blood! And you!" He pointed at Liu Quan, not hiding his disgust, "Ah, how disgusting!!"

His voice trembled more and more, and his face distorted.

"Hey! Who are you talking about!?" Unexpectedly, the first person to fight for Liu Quan was actually the Deputy Chief Oni of the Shinsengumi.

Hijikata's brows were tightly frowned, and his expression was very serious, mixed with a deep-rooted disgust and defensiveness towards Ito himself. He stared at Ito with sharp eyes that were as sharp and cold as an unsheathed sword.

"Please take back your hand pointing at Kiyohara, Ito-kun!" He sternly shouted in a condescending manner, his eyes fixed on Ito's hand pointing at Liu Quan, his expression was full of dissatisfaction and condemnation means.

Ito trembled because of this, and slowly withdrew his hand as if he was reluctant and did not dare to disobey Hijikata, and suddenly realized something, armed himself again with an expression like asking a teacher to ask a crime, and shouted sharply: "The cadres gathered together to kill the soldiers... Please give an explanation, what happened here?!"

Everyone was silent, only Ito's sharp shouts echoed in the room.

Suddenly, there was another sound of running footsteps in the corridor outside the door, and then a familiar voice sounded at the door.

"I'm sorry, everyone, I didn't supervise well enough."

Hearing this voice suddenly, Liu Quan turned his head suddenly as if struck by lightning, and shouted in disbelief: "Mr. Shannan?!"

...why come here? !Didn't you obviously hear Ito's voice outside? !Why not hide yourself? !If it was an ordinary Shannan, it should be like this...

The eyes of Liu Quan and Shan Nan met in mid-air instantly.She was sure that her eyes must have conveyed all these questions, because although Shannan frowned and looked serious, there was a kind of incomprehensible light in his eyes.

Ito's voice got louder.

"Shan, Shan, Shanshan, Shannan-kun?! Why, why are you here!"

Yidong was extremely shocked by Shannan's appearance, his mouth opened and closed, he couldn't help himself, and his expression looked like he had seen a ghost.

Because I have always heard that Shannan is dead before, but now I suddenly saw a living Shannan, so it is reasonable for Ito to have such a reaction.

Shannan lowered his eyebrows, although he still looked troubled, but his voice was as calm and gentle as ever.

"We'll talk about that later. In short, we have to deal with the matter here first."

He stared at the corpse of the Raksha soldier lying on the ground because of his madness, bloodthirsty out of control and wounding, and finally beheaded by the cadres, his expression was very painful, and his face was full of self-blame.

Yongcang came out to comfort him almost immediately.

"It's not Shannan-kun's fault."

The big-mouthed Hirasuke followed up, "It's a side effect of the medicine, right? There's nothing you can do about it."

Ito looked even more terrified.

"Wait, wait, what?! Medicine? What's going on, Shannan-kun?!"

Shannan raised his eyes to look at Ito, his face regained his calm and indifferent expression, his tone was soft but unquestionable.

"No comment on this matter."

...Indeed, he had nothing to answer Ito.

You can't tell him that the Shinsengumi was ordered by the shogunate to create a monster called Raksha in private... Besides, Ito is from the King's School, and he is not a trustworthy fellow.

But Ito, who is a staff member of the Shinsengumi, is not an ordinary person.He quickly regained his composure and narrowed his eyes to stare at Shannan.

"I've always heard that Shannan has passed away... In other words, are you all cheating on me, Ito?"

There was a look of artificial chagrin and anger on his face.

"I, Ito, are the staff of the Shinsengumi. You guys are hiding it from me... Please give me an explanation that I can accept!"

His words were obviously aimed at Hijikata, the highest-ranked deputy chief among those present.

The earthwork really got angry.

"Ah, you bastard is getting tired of saying one sentence after another, give me some peace!"

Ito had an unbelievable expression on his face, and his hands were shaking with anger.

"What... what?! Hijikata-san, you sharp-mouthed..."

Just when the scene was about to turn into a savage brawl, Kondo arrived just in time.With the usual good-natured expression on his face, he came up to smooth things over.

"Forget it, Ito-kun."

He smiled like mud, "A Sui didn't have any malicious intentions. In this special situation, please forgive him."

Ito's anger still persisted.

"Ah, what a savage group of people! It is impossible for me, Ito, to live with such people for a long time!"

He pointed the finger at Shannan again for no reason.

"Shannan-kun, let you explain this matter properly!"

That condescending, bossy tone made people feel uncomfortable.

Even in the past, Ito served as a staff officer after joining the team, and his status was implicitly higher than that of the commander-in-chief Shannan who had seriously injured his left wrist and lost the ability to hold a knife; not to mention that Shannan was only in charge of the "Shinsengumi" when he had cheated for a long time. The present of the Rakshasa team who cannot see the light.

Although it is disgusting and I don't want to admit it, I have to say that Ito has this kind of status of overwhelming others in front of Shannan.

Facing Ito's overpowering, Shannan's face showed forbearance and annoyance for a moment.Although he didn't say anything, his face suddenly paled a lot.

Ito raised his voice another octave domineeringly.

"Are you listening to me, Shannan-kun?!"

Liu Quan, who was completely transparent at the side, felt the anger in his body that had been forcibly suppressed since Ito appeared, finally broke through his chest.

"Please respect others, Ito-kun!" She also raised her voice and shouted sharply.

Because of her sudden sound, Yi Dong turned to her as if startled, squinted his eyes and looked at her for a moment, a sneer suddenly appeared on his face.

"You are... Kiyohara Yukiya?" He hesitantly spit out the name she used when she was pretending to be a man, as if he suddenly recognized that she was just a team member of the first team, and immediately got rid of the The bewilderment that emerged the moment she was yelled at, became arrogant again.

"Well...why didn't you feel surprised when you suddenly saw Sannan-kun? Could it be that this matter is already an open secret in the Shinsengumi? Is it just me who is kept in the dark?" He rubbed his chin , showing a disgusting meaningful smile.

Liu Quan was so angry that his face turned red, he forgot to think for a moment, and blurted out: "Of course I am as surprised as you, Ito-kun! It's just that we are surprised for different reasons - I am happy to see Mr. Shannan again —I don’t need to remind you of that, do I?”

Being first scolded by a soldier of the same rank, and then retorted, Ito was trembling with anger.

"Could it be... Is this the only lawless person in the Shinsengumi?! I, Ito, are the staff of the Shinsengumi—"

Yongcang rolled his eyes at the sky, and said to Harada beside him in a low voice: "Tch, I'm so annoying, just save yourself the trouble."

Probably due to the presence of Director Kondo, who valued Ito very much, Harada did not answer, but smiled wryly.

But in the next second, a sudden change occurred!

Shannan's mouth suddenly let out an unbearable and distressed hiss.

"Uh...uhhhhhhh!!"

It seems that I have heard this kind of painful cry before.That kind of memory immediately attacked Liu Quan's mind like lightning.She immediately turned her head away and looked at Shannan with a painful expression in surprise.

"Mr. Shannan?!"

Shannan's appearance became a little strange, his face was distorted by pain, and he seemed to be unable to hear the voices of others calling him.

An ominous premonition emerged in Liu Quan's heart.She immediately turned to Hijikata, trying to remind him that Ito was still here, and the secret about Rakshasa must never be leaked to that kind of person, otherwise there would be endless troubles!

"Mr. Hijikata! Please immediately order the irrelevant personnel to retreat—"

However, her voice was interrupted by a soft and thin voice full of worry behind her.
