I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

Not long after Ogata entered Yukaku----

Tatsuno Clan, somewhere in Matsumachi——

Somewhere in Matsumachi, there is a second-floor mansion that seems a little inconspicuous due to its remote location.

Although this mansion is inconspicuous, it has a small courtyard.

On the top floor of this mansion, Hasegawa and several subordinates headed by Imai are sitting around a fireplace.

The stove is blowing out flames, and Hasegawa, Imai and others put their hands on top of the flames and burnt the fire.

After inspecting the gambling hall in the village of Karamoto last night, Hasegawa moved their temporary residence for the thieves to Matsumachi.

A remote and sufficiently large house in Matsumachi was requisitioned from the feudal mansion of the Tatsuno clan—that is, the house where Hasegawa and others are currently located.

Last night, they found the clue about "Buddha enemy" they dreamed of in the gambling hall in the village of Karamoto.

After discovering this rare clue, Hasegawa and others secretly made up their minds—we must never let this clue be broken.

The guy who killed everyone in the casino only committed the crime yesterday, so he probably hasn't gone far now.

As early as last night, Hasegawa ordered the mobilization of all the official posts he had under his command. At the same time, he also requisitioned some of the strength and concentricity of the Tatsuno clan to search the Karamoto village and its surrounding areas.

Hasegawa relied on his intuition to instinctively perceive that the guy who slaughtered the casino was most likely to flee to Matsumachi, next to Karamoto Village.

It is precisely because of this that Hasegawa chose to temporarily relocate their temporary residence, which had been changed by the fire thief, into Matsumachi.

Although Hasegawa and others began to mobilize people to search last night, but-the search work until now, nothing has been achieved.

But Hasegawa was still waiting patiently.

Strong patience-this is one of Hasegawa's most proud personalities.

And they are grilling their hands now, not just to pass the time there, but to keep their hands in a warm state, so that they can draw their knives in the best state anytime, anytime.

Just as Hasegawa and others were burning silently here, an anxious footstep suddenly came from outside the door.

After the sound of dongdongdong's footsteps fell, the paper sliding door was opened by a young official who was converted by a thief.

The next moment after opening the sliding door, the young official said loudly:

"My lord! I found information related to the whereabouts of the "Warrior Spectacles"!"

As soon as the young official's voice fell, Hasegawa immediately clenched his hands that were laying on top of the flame and were roasting.

He turned his head and shouted at Imai beside him:

"Imai!"

"understand!"

Imai and Hasegawa have worked together for many years and have cultivated a deep understanding between them.

No need for Hasegawa to talk nonsense. Sometimes just a shout from Hasegawa, Imai can understand what Hasegawa intends to do.

Imai immediately got up and took a map placed in the corner of the room.

As for the brazier that was still blazing outwards, it was extinguished by the rest of Hasegawa and placed in the corner of the room to make enough room for the map to be laid.

The place where the stove was originally set up is now covered with the map that Imai brought just now.

This map is exactly the map of Matsumachi.

After arriving at the Tatsuno clan, in order to facilitate their search, Hasegawa got all the maps of their Tatsuno clan from the old Sano Soken, the family of the Tatsuno clan.

Including city and town maps, rural maps, and field maps.

"Orange!"

Hasegawa yelled at the young official who had just come to report.

"come!"

"Yes!"

This young official is Tachihiro Tachibana, who has just joined the Firefighter Reform.

This young man is not only highly regarded by Imai, but also highly regarded by Hasegawa. He is one of the newcomers that Hasegawa focuses on training.

Tachibana walked quickly to Hasegawa's side and knelt down, leaning over the map of Matsumachi.

"Just now, Tongxin of the famous Tatsuno clan heard from a woman in Matsumachi that there is a spectacle warrior and another young warrior dressed in light green haori who are walking together."

"The two went to the local ‘Yakuza’, a tour set by the Negishi family."

Orange raised his finger and clicked a corner of the map.

"The location of this tour is here."

"According to the woman-the spectacle warrior and his companion separated before and after they came to this tour."

"The young warrior who accompanied the spectacle warrior entered Yukaku."

"And where the samurai wearing glasses went after separating from his companion, the woman is not clear."

Hasegawa and others listened quietly to Tachibana's report.

After Tachibana’s report fell, Imai took the lead to say in a deep voice:

"That guy... still has a companion... But why should he be separated from his companion?"

"...In short." As soon as Imai's voice fell, Hasegawa said, "This is very precious and rare important information."

"Although the woman doesn't know where the guy went after he separated from his companion."

"But—it's enough for us to know that the fellow's companion is currently traveling~www.wuxiahere.com~ Hasegawa's sharp gaze swept towards the location of the brothel that Tachibana had just pointed out on the map.

"Imai! Assemble the manpower immediately! Set out now! Grab that fellow's companion!"

"As long as you catch his companion, maybe you can get a lot of useful information from his companion."

"Yes!"

...

...

Tatsuno Clan, in the Yukura where Ogata is located——

Looking at Ajia who was apologizing to him, Ogata waved his hand quickly.

"No, there is nothing wrong with you! I'm just wondering."

"In my imagination, I always thought that in such a place, it was only after the girl and the customer talked about each other for a while and got to know each other's feelings before they started doing that kind of thing..."

Hearing Ogata's words, Ajia was taken aback for a moment.

Then he laughed a few times.

"Guest! This is your first time here, right?"

"...Hmm." Ogata nodded silently.

At the same time, I added a sentence in my heart: At the same time, this is the first time I have entered this kind of shop...

"Guest, if you are here for the first time, it is normal for you to have such a misunderstanding!"

"If it's a tour in other places, maybe that's the case. The girls talk to the guests for a while and get to know each other before starting to do that kind of thing."

"But it's not like this here."

"We are not allowed to spend too much time chatting with our guests here."

"Because we usually have too many guests."

"If every guest spends a lot of time chatting, it would be too worthwhile."

"So,'Don't chat with the guest officer, just do that kind of thing' has become our usual practice here."

"The guest officers are done quickly, and we can also go to receive more guests."
