Walking on the streets of Kyoto on June [-]th of the lunar calendar in the first year of Yuanzhi, Liu Quan tried to ignore the inexplicable irritability in his heart.

She is very concerned about the special situation that is different from the history and plot that she knows, but since there will definitely be a time retrograde army appearing here, she must also bring a sword to pay the mourning god - otherwise, she would think It is a more convenient and quick choice to sneak into this era to investigate by yourself.

After thinking about it, except for the director's favorite sword, the other swords of the Shinsengumi were excluded, also because they were worried that their remaining emotions towards the old master would affect the development of the situation and their own judgment.

Although she can't just say things like "Even if I stand in front of the deputy commander, I won't rush to hug him and cry", but try to keep calm and trace back time to the army's experience in this world. It is still possible to suppress the influence first.

What's more, at this time, the Shinsengumi is in its heyday, and tonight is their most beautiful and shining moment.The time retrograde army wants to cause chaos, nothing more than wanting to fight against the Shinsengumi and destroy their deserved victory.Standing on the standpoint of the Shinsengumi and fighting the guys who destroy them, she has long been familiar with this kind of thing.

Standing on the street, Liu Quan thought for a while, and felt that the six handsome men lined up behind him, from the beautiful boy to the beautiful young man—the PLAY version of all military uniforms—was too conspicuous.According to Yamazaki's experience in espionage, the behavior and image must be low-key and low-key.For example, he used to pretend to be a beggar to beg on the side of the road to convey news, for example, she once disguised herself as a poor girl with sunburned freckles, mediocre features and yellow complexion, etc. in order to meet Xiaoyi.

So she discreetly found a hotel down the street and checked in.

The hotels of this era are simply hotbeds for all kinds of bad guys (?).Contrary to imagination, even if the extremist vassals or vassals who came to Beijing from Changzhou and other places gather in a certain hotel to plot something, the hotel will not be forcibly closed or severely punished for not reporting the knowledge or harboring serious criminals afterwards. punishment.

What a natural hiding place.

Liu Quan chose a small hotel on Santiaotong Dalu with ease.The proprietress didn't even take a second look at the combination of beautiful boys and girls in military uniforms who were obviously not ordinary townspeople behind her.

...In fact, she also asked Sanri Yue Zongjin at the beginning, since he insisted on following the battle, if he should change into a battle uniform that fits the era here.After all, because there may be a Japanese war in this battle, it means that they may appear on the streets during the day, and they may have to go to the streets to investigate. Wearing a hunting suit from the Heian era is too conspicuous.

However, the answer given by Mikazuki Zongjin at that time almost made her eyes pop out in an instant.

He smiled and said: Hahaha, then change into a dress that is similar to everyone else.

Liu Quan looked back at the row of military uniforms on Awataguchi and smiling Qing Jiang, and felt a sharp pain in his head.

Ah, is this going to be a PLAY with military uniforms... How much do you want to get the screams and popularity of the fans? [Big fog!

However, the situation is urgent, and it is not the time to calm down and persuade this unexpectedly stubborn old man.

Therefore, Liu Quan had no choice but to order Fox Nosuke to find a set of battle uniforms designated by him for Mikazuki Zongjin.However, her idea was that, in order to avoid making him look too eye-catching, she had to go to the street to get an ordinary kimono and force him to change into it after arriving at the mission location!

Now, as soon as they entered the hotel, she started delegating tasks.

Because this place is not far from Ikeda House, she ordered Chief Somi Hutoru to take advantage of his knowledge of the nearby streets to guard the nearby streets.

Smiling Qingjiang and Awataguchi's family went out separately to investigate the movements near several important places in the past few days.For example, near the Shinsengumi settlement, near the Ikeda house, and even the Shikoku house that was locked due to wrong information at the beginning, and the Masuya near the Shijo bridge, which is run by Shuntaro Kotaka. place, wait.

"Originally, Kotaka Shuntaro was raided by the Shinsengumi for harboring unruly rogues. However, during the search, it was found that Masuya was hoarding a large number of guns, ammunition and other weapons. As the owner, Kotaka Shuntaro was taken back to Mibu Village for strict interrogation."

In the narrow room of the small hotel, Liu Quan looked around at the six Sword Fusangshen, and said this in a cautious and solemn tone.

"After a long questioning, Deputy Chief...Mr. Hijikata finally pried his mouth open."

After subconsciously adopting the word "Deputy Chief", she seemed to realize that her current identity was different from before, so she quickly corrected the address of Hijikata, and continued with a normal expression:

"Therefore, I learned about the plans of the so-called 'King of the Kings'. Based on the intelligence, we locked down several possible meeting places, and wanted to arrest them before they took action. But until the end, it was impossible to determine where they would appear Ikedaya is still Shikokuya, so in the end, people were deployed from both directions to search.”

"Everyone must know what happened after that."

Having said that, she paused again, looking around at everyone in the room.

"After thinking about it, if the daytime of June [-]th is the time node most likely to be targeted by the time-traveling army and intend to change history, apart from changing the meeting place of those extremist rogues, the only way is to regain the newly elected The guns and ammunition in the Masuya confiscated by the group.”

she says.

"Gu Gao was arrested. Thinking about it, it seems to have happened on June [-]th. After a night, those people continued to gather to discuss any changes in the plan..."

She raised the corners of her lips slightly and smiled.

"After all, it's an era when it's not so convenient and quick to deliver news. Moreover, dozens of people want to overthrow the entire capital, it's really—"

What is it?She didn't go on.

After a pause, she continued: "Therefore, everyone must keep an eye on these key locations. In addition to paying special attention to the movement of the time retrograde army, if you find a certain location—especially a location different from Ikeda House ——There is evidence that those Langshi frequently come and go, please contact other people as soon as possible.”

After seeing everyone nodding their heads one after another, she stood up on the ground.

Cattail has a lively personality and shouted: "Master! Where are you going then?"

Liu Quan turned to look at him and smiled.

"Me? I'll go to Masuya with Mikazuki-kun. Anyway, I'm still very concerned about those rogues getting back their guns~"

After being named, Sanri Yuezong stood up calmly, walked behind her, held the handle of the Five Swords of the World with his left hand, and also looked back at the other companions who were still in the room. A smile appeared.

Liu Quan was embarrassed.

"No...Your appearance is too attractive to others, let's change into something more ordinary..." She said weakly.

Sanri Yue Zongjin: "Ahaha, is that right? Mr. Xue Ye thinks that my appearance attracts other people's attention."

Other Fusangshen: "..."

Liu Quan: "...Is this something to be happy about..."

Fortunately, when she checked in at the beginning, she took out money in advance and asked the proprietress to help her get some ordinary clothes.

Although Kyoto is like a sieve at this time, almost most of the townspeople have the attribute of "love to inquire and chat", but for the time being, the Shinsengumi and the Kyoto office should not be staring at them, but just yesterday. The whereabouts of the extremist rogues including Miyabe Kanzo and Yoshida Minoru who were arrested and locked up for revealing the truth under the means of the deputy chief.

What's more, even people like Sakamoto Ryoma, Nakaoka Shintaro, or Katsura Kogoro have their hiding places in Kyoto.Not to mention their more innocuous-looking counterparts.

The proprietress was very neat and quick to knock on the door and delivered a set of simple men's kimonos.Blue tops and gray horse riding hakama are the most common colors nowadays.

Mikazuki Zongjin looked at the kimono and sighed half-truly.

"I'm not good at dressing myself—" he said.

In the next second, Liu Quan quickly flashed outside the door.

"...I think everyone in the room will be very willing to help you!" She said loudly, "I'll go outside the store to find out the news first!"

Before the black-bellied old man could speak again, she thumped all the way down the stairs.

Because the Gion Festival is in progress recently, the streets seem to be much busier than usual, and there are more pedestrians.

In Hakuouki's world, she was imprisoned by the deputy chief angrily on this day because her identity as a woman was exposed, so she really didn't see the street scene on June [-]th in the first year of Yuanji with her own eyes.

With some strangeness - also mixed with embarrassment - emotions, she stood outside the store, looking at this seemingly familiar, yet somewhat strange street.

For some reason, Hijikata's voice suddenly rang in her mind.

[Regardless of whether you are going to perform a mission or not, if you invite girls to the festival, no matter what the reason is, it would be more cool to invite them yourself. 】

Heh, this reminded her of the shrine that "is very effective in love and marriage, and is holding a special festival that only couples who go together can enter".

Thinking of the daytime of the festival, he turned back from the small goldfish fishing stall and handed out the crystal clear glass jar containing a small goldfish to her.

She thought of the deputy chief who was dozing off on the tree trunk next to her on the night of the festival.The lights in the shrine gradually dimmed, and tiny spots of light jumped on his hair and face, casting a thin shadow on the side of his tall nose bridge.

... How are you now, Hijikata-san.

Such words appeared in her mind for a moment, and were quickly suppressed by her reason.

It's pointless to think about these questions any longer.

From the moment she tied the white scarf with the haiku written on it tightly to the fence near the sea near Bentendaiba, she was no longer qualified to ask.

Would it be good for the person who was forcibly dragged out by her from the tragic fate of martyrdom, who lost Shidou, general, companion, and even the belief in fighting for it all his life, lost his true name and continued to live in that era? .Will you be very happy?Will he live peacefully and calmly with the sacrifices and lives of the general and his companions—everyone—in his back?

This kind of question that she had never dared to think about and forced herself not to think about suddenly appeared in her mind, which made her feel extremely guilty and sad for a moment.

From an objective standpoint, it is not the best to live simply and ignorantly.

However, from the standpoint of being close to him, respecting him, and admiring him, I would rather that he should live no matter what, even if he is numb and ignorant, even if he loses his ideals, even if he changes history——

She could think no further.Because there was a sound of Enron's rhythmic footsteps on the stairs.

Sanri Yuezong walked down the stairs, walked out of the store and came in front of her.

"Let's go, Xue...Yejun."

He paused for a moment, and changed his address to her original male pseudonym.

"Let's go to Masuya." He said calmly.

"Then, when necessary, defeat your former companions, help those enemies you once hated, and snatch back the weapons they must take back in order to cause chaos."

Liu Quan:! ! !

Although she knew that this was her mission this time - to preserve history, regardless of whether that history was beneficial to her heart's desire or not - she still felt that this sentence was a little bit harsh, and couldn't help frowning.

"I said... Is it necessary to be so direct?" She lowered her voice and muttered like complaining.

Sanri Yuezong's ears were very sharp, so of course he heard her words.He smiled tolerantly, raised his hand and pressed her shoulder, as if to comfort her or cheer her up.

"Ahahahaha, after all, tonight is the time for Shinsengumi to shine," he said.

"So, for their brilliance, Xue Ye, you should work hard, how about it?"
