It was late at night, and the crowds on the streets finally subsided.

On the gradually empty streets, some shops are also starting to prepare for closing.

In the shadows at the corner of the street, Liu Quan looked in the direction of the Three Bridges.

...nothing happened.

She sighed.

"This is unscientific... Could it be that I really went to Shikoku House..." She said to herself with black lines all over her face.

Then, she turned around and took from Mikazuki Zongjin's hand the little bundle that she had been asking him to hold since she left the house.

At the beginning, maybe Sanriyue Zongjin just thought that the reason for the female examiner to let him carry the burden was to strengthen the persuasiveness of the "outsider" image played by the two of them; After a light onion-colored haori was unfurled and draped over his shoulders, he immediately understood that her plan might not be simple.

"Ahaha, Mr. Xueye is going back to be the 'Mr. Xueye' back then." He smiled and asked lightly.

The Goddess glanced at him.

"I don't know how much this period of history has been changed by the time-traveling army, but wait a minute, if the situation is really forced to rush into Ikeda House or Shikoku House, at least it's better to pretend?" She said explain.

Sanri Yue Zongjin suddenly stretched out an arm and blocked her face.

"No." He replied quietly, "We haven't even obtained the exact information to confirm whether there is a 'Mr. Xueye' here. If we just attack rashly..."

His tail paused suggestively.

The female examiner was silent for a moment, showing a slightly melancholy smile.

"...However, at the end of the Sanjo Bridge that day, I heard..." she whispered.

She stopped here, took a deep breath, and then slowly continued.

"I heard... Mr. Hijikata, call me by my name..."

"I heard it right. He clearly called me 'Qing Yuan'—"

There seemed to be some kind of soul-stirring emotion in her calm tone, as if her own voice trembled slightly because she couldn't bear such a heavy emotion.

Compared with the excitement that she had tried her best to suppress but still revealed faintly, Sanri Yue Zongjin's attitude was extremely calm.

"So...do you want to go to him and answer his call?" He asked with a half-smile, the faint smile on his lips seemed to have no clear meaning.

The female examiner seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and the melancholy expression on her face darkened for a moment.

"...No." She finally looked away, and tightened the corner of the light onion-colored haori on her shoulders.

"What I have to do is to ensure his victory."

Her voice was almost a whisper, but there was a sense of firmness in her tone.

"I want to make sure... no matter what kind of person comes here, he cannot be shaken, let alone take away the victory that should have belonged to him."

In the middle of the night, the cool wind blew through the eaves, and the shadows on the street corner cast a mottled and shapeless shadow on her face.

Her long eyelashes drooped and trembled slightly, like the flapping wings of a butterfly when it was about to take flight; after a moment of silence, she suddenly raised her eyes, and the slight melancholy on her face suddenly disappeared.

"Shh. . . Now is not the time to talk about that. Someone is coming," she whispered.

Sure enough, there was a sound of footsteps coming from far and near on the long street. It sounded like a lot of people, but it didn't look messy or chaotic. It seemed to be full of courage and confidence because of a certain belief. The sound of footsteps came out.

The female interrogator didn't even look at it, but lowered her voice and said, "...it's the Shinsengumi."

Mikazuki Zongjin snorted softly.

"Hehe, you really have confidence in them, Lord Hall."

At the critical moment of this kind of mission, he didn't say much. After making a mocking smile at the female judge, he held the scabbard of the body knife around his waist, turned around and walked along the two buildings. The small alleyway between the houses left, went against the direction of the main road, and strode towards the backyard of the Ikeda House.

Nor does the Goddess take the time to wallow in nostalgia and sentimentality here.

She lowered her upper body slightly, and hid her whole body in the shadow of the corner in a flash. She silently watched the figures in light-colored haori and bowl gold running across the long street and stopped at a distance from her. In front of Ikedaya, only a few houses away.

"The imperial inspection is also!!"

Liu Quan heard a shout not far away.

All right.She closed her eyes.

Have you started...?

She purposely waited in the shadows for a few more minutes until the few people—about ten people according to history—all entered the Ikeda House, then lowered her upper body and slipped out from the corner, sticking to the road along the way. The shadow on the outer wall of the house next to it ran fast in small steps, and soon approached the open gate of Ikeda House.

At this time, there was already the crisp sound of gold and iron clashing in the house.Obviously, the two sides have already handed in their hands.

As soon as Liu Quan came to the wall on the side of Ikeda House, he heard Kondo's loud shout.

"Queen's inspection is right! If you resist, you will be beheaded on the spot!"

She gasped sharply.

...not the voice she was familiar with.But there is no doubt that this sentence should be shouted by Kondo, because it sounds a little old and full of courage as a leader.Except for Kondo, this person doesn't think otherwise.

She looked up to the second floor, and found that the faint candlelight flickering in the previous windows had almost all been extinguished at this moment.The window was completely dark, and it was impossible to see clearly what was going on inside.

Probably the moment they realized that the Shinsengumi had raided Ikedaya, the rogues who were having a secret meeting on the second floor blew out the candles in the house first.

Although she doesn't know the situation of the battle inside the Ikeda house now, she also knows that she can't just break in rashly.

She didn't know why the last time at the bridgehead of the Sanjo Bridge, the earthworker blurted out "Qingyuan" when he saw her-even if there was a team member named Qingyuan in the new selection team in history, but that person should definitely She must be a man through and through; and the deputy chief should not be able to recognize the appearance of the soldiers, so why did he directly think that she is the soldier named "Qing Yuan" in the team? ! ——However, she knew very well that without knowing which team that "Qing Yuan" was in tonight, if she showed up now, she would definitely show her feet!

Liu Quan endured his anxiety, thought for a while, and after a lot of hard work, cast an illusion spell on himself with great difficulty.

After she handed over her own special skills several times and traded (?) with the system bacteria for spiritual power, not only did she almost lose all other small skills—including the life skills such as cooking and the ability to get in the HP world. The [Ultimate Occlumency], which is enough to fool the Dark Lord, is such a heaven-defying golden finger—and even the wandless magic that is close to him at the end has been weakened a lot.Now it takes a lot of effort and time for her to cast a disillusionment spell, and the success rate has dropped significantly.

Fortunately, today's auspicious star shines brightly, and she actually succeeded once.

So when she was full of excitement and planned to rely on this wonderful invisibility technique (fog!) to rush into the Ikeda house to see what happened, she suddenly felt that the dog she had received last time was randomly stuffed in her front. During the mission, the soil bell obtained from the Government of Time suddenly vibrated!

Although the earth bell was tucked in the front of her shirt and the vibration was not strong enough, so the ringing was much lower, but it was enough in such a deep night.

Drip ring ring—drip ring ring—

Liu Quan:! ?

She stretched out her hand and quickly covered the front skirt that was shaking faintly (heavy fog!) due to the ringing of the earth bell, and suppressed the weak but clear sound of the earth bell.

But that's enough.

The next moment, an ominous roar came from the Ikeda house!

Liu Quan:! ! !

Ah, sure enough... The Time Traveling Army is here too...

Tu Ling's prompt should not be wrong.She didn't expect that after the last mission, she just carried it with her at will, and now she could add evidence to her reasoning.

So... The time retrograde army didn't transfer the location of this secret meeting to the Shikoku House or other locations-maybe it was because it was too difficult for them to complete? ——But lurking here at Ikeda House, ready to support those radical rogues at any time, and attack the Shinsengumi? !

Liu Quan immediately pressed the handle of the knife at his waist, lowered his head slightly, and rushed into the open door of Ikeda House.

The bloody smell coming towards her face made her shiver slightly.

Then, what filled her senses were the screams and screams that resounded through the whole house, the tooth-piercing sound of the blade piercing human flesh, and the sound of the metal blades colliding. Crisp sound.

Before her eyesight could adapt to this dark room, she suddenly felt——

A bitter wind of blades hits in front of you!

She subconsciously threw her upper body back!

A knife edge almost passed very close to her eyes, and the wind brought by the knife even curled up the broken hair on her temples, and it floated in the air for a moment.

Liu Quan:? !

She quickly took advantage of the momentum to take two steps back, her right hand quickly reached the handle of the knife at her left waist; the next moment, the blade on the opposite side swung down again, and she drew the knife at the speed of light with a swish, and at the same time turned her wrist. Flip to face up, meeting the opponent's falling blade.

With a local sound, the two knives had already collided in the air.

Naturally, there was no winner or loser.Liu Quan shook her wrist vigorously, and the other party seemed to have noticed that she couldn't take advantage of it with a surprise attack, so she took advantage of her wrist's strength to withdraw the knife, and then slashed again from another direction.

Liu Quan had been prepared for this time, turned slightly to one side, held the knife with both hands and turned his wrists to hold the opponent's knife horizontally, took advantage of the situation, and slid two steps to the side like a fish, staggering his body from his opponent, shaking his hand , The blade broke away from the opponent's blade.The next moment, she grabbed the opponent's knife before it fell, flipped her wrist, and the knife drew a half-circular arc in the air. When it fell, the blade happened to be aimed at the opponent's right rib, and gently moved The first send directly slashed in, cutting open the softest and most fragile flesh and blood on the opponent's waist——

The other party let out a scream!

Liu Quan didn't use all his strength to cut open the opponent's side and kill him with a knife, but just took advantage of the opportunity when the opponent retreated repeatedly because of the pain, and saw that the opponent retreated just to give herself a passage to the second floor—she had previously Almost all of her [Advanced Lightness Kung Fu] skills have been exchanged for spiritual power, so now she can no longer jump up to the second floor by stepping on the window frame like she did back then—turn around and rush there!

However, at the moment when she passed by that opponent, the moonlight shining in from the wide open window on the first floor happened to be projected on her face.

The man covering his right rib and grinning in pain looked up and suddenly screamed.

"You, you are—! Yesterday at Masuya...yes, against Shincho..."

Before he could pronounce the word "group" at the end, Liu Quan turned his head abruptly, and shouted in a deep voice, "Don't talk nonsense!"

At the same time, she unceremoniously raised her right hand and swished——

Hit the opponent's face hard with the back of the knife.

Immediately, two tubes of blood gushed out of that Langshi's nose, and he fell to the ground with a thud.
