Su Shuang's world is collapsing [Comprehensive]

Fujita Goro: "..."

Ah, since that night, the Nakatsu Police Department Suzuki, who seemed to have discovered something serious, has been chasing him and asking for this word.

At first, he seemed to think that he could find something shocking from this word - but Fujita Goro really didn't understand that it was just a word, what can the Nakatsu Police Department make up from the midbrain - but now it seems that it is just because he feels interesting.

For example, on this day, when Fujita Goro was walking towards his desk with a lot of documents, Nakatsu Police Department Bubu appeared from nowhere.

"Hey Fujita! Don't you want to get married today?" He asked with a smile.

Fujita Goro: "..."

... How long do you want to play with this meme? I'm so tired.

Of course, he couldn't really say that, so he could only choose to seriously respond to the questioning of Zhongjin Police Department. "yes."

The Zhongjin police department touched his red rosacea nose, and grinned like a toothache.

"Hey, Fujita...that's the most boring thing about you..." He said half-jokingly and half-complainingly, and finally couldn't help but reveal the reason for his relentless pursuit to Goro Fujita.

"You said 'for the time being', so that means, in the long run, it's not like you haven't thought about this possibility." He lowered his voice, leaned over and asked mysteriously, "A stubborn guy like you , If you don't have a partner, you won't think like this for no reason... Then, tell me, where is the girl? The daughter of a craftsman's family on the street? The daughter of an ordinary townsman, or..."

Nakatsu Police Department Suzuki winked at Fujita Goro for a while, Fujita Goro only belatedly guessed what type Nakatsu Police Department Suzuki didn't mention.

It must be something like "the waitress at a tea house" or "the maid at a tavern".

Speaking of which, he remembered that in the Shinsengumi era, some team members actually married such a woman.Rented a small house on the street and settled down, and some people later had children with the woman who married back home...

Moreover, he still remembers that when he received the deputy chief's secret order to go undercover in the Imperial Tomb Guards, for the convenience of passing information when meeting outside, Qingyuan Xueye thought of those married soldiers as soon as he had an idea, so he also Pretending to be a woman who committed herself to a samurai like that, she rented a house on the street as a place for the two of them to meet and for her to change her clothes for the task - he remembered that once when he sent her back, he was beaten by the old woman next door. When I saw it, I smiled and said, "Oh, the relationship is really good."

... But then, what about those soldiers who married local women in Kyoto?Where did it all go?

Some people died during the mission, leaving helpless orphans and widows with no one to take care of them; After being discovered, seppuku must be followed in the game; some people hurriedly bid farewell to their families when they followed the Shinsengumi to evacuate Kyoto, and never came back...

In the current popular words, those are all..."sad love stories", right?

Fujita Goro sighed silently, but still answered the question from Nakatsu Police Department.

"No, it's not like that..."

He hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to describe it.

...Do you want to say "actually, he is the biggest suspect in the nighttime serial killings so far".

He hesitated for a moment, and finally said simply: "... If there is such a person, I will report to you."

The Zhongjin Police Department shouted dissatisfiedly: "Hey, you didn't say anything, Fujita!"

Goro Fujita coughed, sat down at the table, and opened the file in his hand pretending to be busy.

Of course, Nakatsu Police Department couldn't bother him anymore, he muttered, complained half-truth, and walked away.

Goro Fujita originally just wanted to send the Nakatsu Police Department away, so he started looking at the information he had collected so soon.But when he started watching, he soon discovered that the background of the family that Qingyuan Xueye deliberately put in front of him was very... intriguing.

The surname of the family that needed to be alerted by the police that night was "Jiu Tiao".

Of course it wasn't the Kujo family, one of the five family members of the Fujiwara Kita family, nor the mother's family of the current empress dowager.However, this family can be regarded as a branch of the Jiu Tiao family; although the family has fallen, but now that the old Chinese are declining, the head of the family, Jiu Tiao, has earned a lot of points for the family's loyalty and ability to follow the wind.

Kujo Tadashun is good at catering to his superiors, and he is willing to put down his body and try his best to please the ministers of the real power faction. , Jiujo Zhongshun is also willing to let go of the face of the old Chinese and try his best to curry favor.

For example, when the new government wants to completely westernize, Jiujo Zhongshun took the lead in cutting his hair, wearing western clothes, and trying his best to renovate his own mansion—and the action was very fast, when the old Chinese were still generally watching and resisting. , he has completed such a turn.

At the same time, it is said that Kujo Tadashun has an adopted son who was once very active in Edo. When the current situation was unstable, he was not only ambitious, but also possessed a meticulous scheming worthy of this ambition. At that time, I was optimistic about the Changzhou Fan, which was ordered to crusade by the imperial court at that time because of the change of the forbidden gate. Forward-looking investment will almost reap huge benefits after Sa Chang came to power—if he didn't suddenly die suddenly at such a critical moment for unknown reasons.

To be able to investigate to this extent in just a few days has already exhausted Fujita Goro's efforts.

In fact, in private, Jiu Tiao Zhongshun has a reputation for adapting to the wind and flattering Shangyi, so it doesn't take much trouble to inquire about it.The protagonist of the engagement that night—the only son of Jiujo Zhongshun, Kujo Daozhi, is a frail character, likes to study plants, and often has a gloomy and self-destructive literary youth in his body. He has no interest in things like raising status and chasing power that his father is keen on. ; this fact is also easy to investigate.

What is strenuous is actually about Kujo Tadashun's adopted son.

Kujo Tadashun has never publicly admitted that he has an adopted son, and has been staying in Edo since before, secretly manipulating some unknown dark things, planning to win more important titles and status for the Kujo family.After the sudden and sudden death of his adopted son several years ago, he kept the matter even more secretive.

In fact, Fujita Goro didn't know about Kujo Tadasun's adopted son at the beginning, and there was no clue to lead him to investigate this aspect.In fact, he just feels an intuitive dislike for the relationship between the Kujo family and those powerful figures from the Satsuma clan-as one of the former members of the Shinsengumi, it is impossible to have a good impression of Satsuma! ——However, in the process of investigation, the image of this person unexpectedly gradually emerged from the surface of the dark and turbulent water, and finally became clear before his eyes.

First, when he was investigating that mansion, he found the land bond record of the previous mansion. The name of the "host" written on it was not the Kujo Zhongshun he had expected, but a somewhat unfamiliar one, but when he thought about it, he was a bit strange. "Jiu Tiao Dao Qing", which is in line with the name of the descendants of the Ku Tiao family.

It was this name, which was only one letter away from Kujo Tadashun's only son Doji, that caught Fujita Goro's attention.He continued to investigate, but found that in the early years of the Meiji era, the name of the "host" listed on the land certificate had been changed back to Kujo Tadashun.This proves that there must be some connection between Jiutiao Daoqing and Jiutiao Zhongshun—of course, it is not easy to prove the relationship between Jiutiao Daoqing and Jiutiao Zhongshun now that the household registration law has just been promulgated; When I visited the residents who had registered their residences or shops near the mansion, I met a grocery store owner.

The boss is a long-winded, broken-mouthed old man, because he is getting old and his brain is not very bright; when Fujita Goro visited his house-he had already let his son inherit the shop because of his old age, and he himself Then retired and returned to his hometown————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— of my kind of patience.

"I heard that young master Daoqing claimed to be the adopted son of a Chinese family, thinking that everyone didn't know his real background; but that kid didn't know, old man, because I have been running a grocery store around there for decades, So I recognize those old servants of his family... It is said that—”

The old man in his dying years suddenly leaned over in the direction of Fujita Goro, his cloudy old eyes seemed to be shining with excitement because of the secret he was about to tell.

"He's the illegitimate son of a Chinese family... Tsk tsk, I don't know how much he has learned from those noble and big figures, but he has learned how those people live in a mess—"

The old man laughed heartily.For some reason, Fujita Goro always felt that when he talked about the black history of the old Chinese, there was a hint of complacency and irony.

"Those noble young masters and ladies think that a lowly person like me doesn't know anything... We are not that stupid, we just pretended to know nothing in front of them, so that they would not be malicious to us -"

The old man approached him with a smug and sly smile.

"Old man, I know all the tricks they play - like adopting someone as an adopted son and daughter if they are useful, making them work hard to death for a surname... In order to earn a formal identity, I am willing to do it for the master's family. It's a shameful thing... The young masters go out to go shopping in Huajie, but when they get home and close the door, they can trick those young maids into willingly being driven by him... To make those girls listen to their own words, what is it? All methods are used..."

Fujita Goro:? !

In short, he took this investigation content after cleaning up his three views and refreshed his cognition of the decayed inner cognition hidden under the glamorous surface of those big figures, carefully recorded the old man's gossip, and then returned to the police. TV hall.

But now he is even more confused.

According to the change record of the land certificate, Kujo Michiyo should have passed away in the early years of the Meiji era—the same was said by the former owner of the grocery store.

"One day he went away...and never came back."

The old man smacked his lips and shook his head in regret, as if he really cared about this mysterious young master.However, Fujita Goro could also see that it was just a cunning sophistication pretending to be enthusiastic.

"You are still so young... What a pity. I don't know where he died... However, the situation was so chaotic at that time, and anything could happen... Maybe I ran into rebels when I was out? Fighting? You know, at that time, the army loyal to His Majesty was still fighting to the death with the army of the general..."

Fujita Goro nodded silently.

"Well, it's hard to understand what is right and what is wrong in this world." The old man finally sighed and sent him out of the door.

"We have listened to the words of the general for hundreds of years, and then suddenly said that what the general said is wrong, we shouldn't listen to him?! This world...is incomprehensible." The old man shook his head and watched Looking at the young and silent back of Fujita Goro, he walked away on the dirt road in front of the house.

Finally, the old man let out a deep sigh.

"In this world... living is better than anything else! But we little people are just pawns in the hands of those big people...you can play with it however you want; you don't know when it will disappear... ..."

"This is life."

"This is life."

But of course Fujita Goro didn't know about this last exclamation.

Following the clues, he finally got the name of the person "Jiu Tiao Dao Qing", and also learned a little about the shadow behind this person's short life.

However, why did Kiyohara Yukiha want to enter such a family, and then become the "Miss Zezi" in those people's mouth? !

Goro Fujita sat at his desk for a long time.He is seriously thinking about these confusions.

In the end, he found out where his intuition was inconsistent.

The old man who opened a grocery store said, "If you see people who are useful, you will adopt them as adopted sons and daughters, and let them work hard to death for a surname..."

He also said, "The young masters have used all kinds of methods to make those girls listen to him..."

is that so?

Fujita Goro felt that his mind suddenly seemed like a galloping horse was suddenly pulled by the rein, and suddenly it changed from running freely at the previous moment to suddenly stopping in place, hesitating back and forth.

No, it's impossible...? !

How could it be possible for someone like Kiyohara Yukiha...such an outstanding and courageous person...just for a surname, a name? !

His head feels like it's going to explode just thinking about it.

He sat blankly at his desk for a while.

What came to his mind at that moment turned out to be the scene of a trial marriage between him and her in the dojo a long time ago.

He couldn't help but said to himself: "That kind of swordsmanship...without a shadow, it's impossible..."

Then, he slammed the table and stood up!

He turned around immediately without wasting a quarter of an hour, strided across the chaotic office, and walked towards the gate, whispering to himself, "No, you have to ask. You have to go to Just find her—"

When he passed by the Nakatsu Police Department, the latter accidentally heard Fujita Goro talking to himself, his eyes lit up immediately, and he straightened up suddenly.

However, Fujita Goro seemed to be immersed in his own thinking, completely ignoring the Nakatsu Police Department Suzuki who was going to talk to him beside him.He just brushed past the other party and walked out of the gate in a hurry.

Zhongjin Police Department added: "...Ah, damn it. Is he ignoring him again...Who is he going to go to? I really mind?"

The author has something to say:

February 3:

The computer is completely useless. . .So I had to really use that laptop with WIN10 pre-installed. . .

WIN10 is really too difficult to use【.

In short, after a day of tossing yesterday, I finally got it almost done. I am still very uncomfortable with the new notebook, so I reluctantly coded these first.

There have been too many things these days, thank you for your understanding.

I'll try to update tomorrow as well, but if the new laptop gives me trouble I'll have to fight with it first. . .

It's so annoying, can you downgrade to WIN7 [collapsed]
