Pastoral village: "..."

--Well!

After seeing Asai's bright smile and hearing what he said just now, Makimura felt as if he had lost consciousness at that moment.

Fortunately, he just brought back his dying soul in time.

——Am I dreaming?

Mucun couldn't help questioning himself like this.

"Makimura-san, what are you doing? Let's go quickly☆"

In order to make herself look more girlish, when smiling at Makimura, Asai twisted the ten fingers of both hands together and tucked them in front of her chest.

——Not dreaming!

Asaimoto is a handsome boy.

After putting on women's clothing and putting on women's makeup, she transformed into a lovely girl.

With such a beautiful face and such a brilliant smile, it should look very charming.

But Mucun didn't feel his heartbeat now, only horror.

Very scary.

Obviously the face itself is very cute, and the smile is impeccable, but Mu Cun only feels terrible.

The reason is that Asai is only smiling, but not his eyes.

The emotions in Asai's current eyes are quite scary. There seemed to be some blue veins violent in the neck.

Smiling into a pair of crescent eyes with 50% humiliation and 50% grief and indignation, there was no slight smile in the eyes.

At the same time, Makimura could vaguely feel Asai's twisted hands and his hands tightened in front of his chest.

A faint vigor emerges from the back of the hand...

To give a more vivid example... Asai is like a beast trapped in a cage, eager for freedom outside the cage, while gnawing on the railings of the cage.

If you ask Mu Cun if you have a bad relationship with someone, Mu Cun will definitely say "No."

But if she insisted that she pick out the person with the worst relationship, she would have said Asai's name.

Asai's personality is serious, and he doesn't like to communicate with others.

In terms of personality, it is completely opposite to the pastoral village, so the two will always quarrel on various trivial matters.

In the past, when Asai was embarrassed, Makimura might have a smirking smile.

But now after seeing this appearance of Asai, Makimura did not feel like laughing, only felt quite sympathetic...

"Yeah." Mucun nodded vigorously. "Let's go, A Jiang."

In the mood to save Asai from the sea of ​​suffering as soon as possible, Makimura led Asai to quickly follow Gitaro behind.

...

...

Like the information provided by Ogata, Kokutaro liked Yoshihara's "public relations club" very much.

Tonight, he took his follower straight into the Four Seasons House.

After seeing Kokutaro and his follower enter the Four Seasons House, Makimura and Asai rushed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Originally, the two were worried about whether that Gitaro would make a fuss tonight and didn't want to go to the Four Seasons House for a drink.

If he didn't go to the Four Seasons House for a drink tonight, the two of them, especially Asai, who spent a lot of time putting on makeup and learning women's kimono dressing, would be busy tonight.

Makimura and Asai did not immediately enter the Four Seasons House.

But after waiting outside for a while, he walked towards the Four Seasons House together.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the Four Seasons House, a young man standing by the door of the Four Seasons House immediately greeted the two of them with a smiling face.

If Ogata was here, he would recognize that this young man was the same person who had introduced some Shikiya to him last night.

"I brought my friend here." Mucun first said to Youqi, "Is there still room in there now?"

"Yes, Lord Samurai, you came early, so there is still room. If you come later, there may be no room!"

Yuqi led Mucun and Asai into the Four Seasons House.

As Yuqi said, there are still at least 50% of the vacant seats in the hospitality hall of the Four Seasons House.

After arriving at the hospitality hall, Makimura and Asai moved their gazes quickly, looking for Gokutaro's figure.

Because there are not too many people now, the two quickly found Gokutaro.

He is sitting opposite his classmate now. Next to him and his two, there is a young girl sitting next to him. These two girls must be the girls of the Four Seasons House.

Makimura and Asai had good luck—a certain table close to Gokutaro is now empty.

The table and the place where Kokutaro was sitting were separated by only one table-neither too far nor too close, it was considered the most ideal "eavesdropping place".

After the two sat in the most ideal position in tandem, a waiter immediately walked towards the two of them and asked them what food and drinks they would like to order.

On the west wall of the hospitality hall, there is a big wooden sign that is quite conspicuous, which says that they are selling drinks and food.

After randomly spotting two bottles of sake, some squid, peanuts, and other things that can be served, Makimura and Asai began to look around them with curious eyes.

The two had never seen this kind of business operation, so they were quite curious about everything in the guest lobby.

"It's the same as what Ogata said..." Makimura whispered, "Everyone gathers in the same place to drink. You can have girls come to drink with you, or you can bring a girl by yourself..."

The two noticed that perhaps because they are gradually entering the prime time when there are more guests, more and more guests are pouring into this four-season house.

Some came alone.

Some are in groups.

Some brought women over by themselves.

Some did not bring a woman, and they probably came here to experience the novel service of Four Seasons House.

Because the Four Seasons House does not have a private room, everyone gathers in the same hospitality hall, which makes the whole hospitality hall noisy and at the same time it is quite lively.

"It's a clever design..." Maki Village murmured, "If you don't have a single room, you will lose those guests who like cleanliness, but it can greatly arouse the interest of those who like liveliness."

"But this is not the most powerful design yet."

"The most powerful design is to link the rewards of the girls with the drinks and food ordered by the guests."

"This will greatly increase the enthusiasm of the girls."

"Let the girls do their best to please their guests."

After simply observing the situation in the store, Makimura discovered the uniqueness of this store.

It's not unusual to be able to ask girls to come over to drink and chat with each other.

Some larger tea houses actually have such services.

But the Four Seasons House is more powerful than the two points mentioned by Makura just now: by not setting up single rooms to increase the bustling of the shop, and linking the girls' rewards to the drinks and food ordered by the guests.

"Makimura." Asai on the side said at this moment, "Don't forget the business."

"I know."

The service of this four-season house was very fast. After a short time, all the drinks and food ordered by Mucun and Asai were brought up.

After serving Makimura a small glass of wine in an extremely unskilled manner, Asai began to chatter about things that were and did not stop:

"Makimura-kun, do you know? I heard that Satsuma clan has always used its geographical advantages to carry out smuggling activities with foreign countries, and has also sent troops to attack the Ryukyu Kingdom..."

Asai is responsible for speaking, and Makimura is responsible for eavesdropping-this is the division of labor between the two.

If the two of them don't speak, and just drink and eat silently there, it will look very unnatural.

So the two of them divide the work of each other—it’s up to Asai to say anything, it doesn’t matter what you say, just pretend that the two are communicating.

Makimura was only responsible for nodding and responding from time to time, pretending to be listening to Asai's words, but in fact, his attention was focused on eavesdropping on the conversation between Gokutaro and his co-workers.

In this way, in the eyes of outsiders, Makimura and Asai are "women are more talkative, while men are more taciturn." It is not easy to cause suspicion.

In order to make her voice sound more like a girl, Asai spoke with her throat very carefully, and successfully portrayed herself as a beauty whose voice is neither like a man nor a woman.

In modern earth terms, it sounds like an eunuch.

While Mucun was sipping his drink while nodding his head from time to time, saying some perfunctory sentences like "Oh oh!", "Really?"...etc.

Makimura pretends to be listening to Asai's speech, and has always put all his mind and body on Gokutaro.

Although the surrounding area is very noisy due to the increasing number of guests, Makimura can barely listen to the conversation between Kiyotaro and his classmate.

"Etaro! Do you know? I heard from that recently. Just mix garlic and soy sauce and put it on top to make it bigger!"

Makimura couldn't help frowning as he listened to the conversation between Gokutaro and his classmate. Secretly said in my heart:

——What are they talking about...

Although all that was heard from Gokutaro and his followers were messy things, Makimura continued to listen patiently.

...

...

at the same time.

——I don’t know how Makimura and Asai are doing now...

Ogata, who was whispering like this in his heart, turned his head from time to time and looked in the direction of the Four Seasons House.

Ogata is still patrolling the first half of Nakanomachi, so no matter how you look at it, it is impossible to see the Four Seasons House. However, out of worry about Makimura and Asai, Ogata still looks at the Four Seasons House from time to time. direction.

Ogata didn't worry about whether the two would be discovered by Kokutaro and others.

Ogata only worries about whether Asai can't stand the women's clothing on her body, or can't stand the behavior of having to snuggle next to Makimura...

Just as Ogata was looking at Shikiya, which was not in the field of vision, a familiar voice suddenly sounded on Ogata's side:

"Mashima-kun."

Ogata followed the sound and looked.

"Miss Guasheng, what's wrong?"

Guao, who was wearing the clubhouse's special haori, was holding the wooden knife at his waist and walking slowly towards Ogata.

"Mashima-kun, there is an urgent task. Can I trouble you to go to the bank of Rashomon River?"

"Emergency mission?" Ogata raised his eyebrows. "Did something happen on the banks of the Rashomon River?"

"It's nothing big." Gua Sheng smiled bitterly, "It's just that there is a shortage of manpower on the banks of the Rashomon River."

"Ban, who was in charge of the security of the Rashomon River just now, responded to Lord Shiro Hebei that the number of guests who came to visit the Rashomon River tonight has increased compared to usual."

"So apply for a little more manpower to support."

"So Shiro Biebe-sama just asked me to pick out some people to go to the Rashomon River bank, which is currently under-staffed."

"How? Majima-kun, can I trouble you to go to the Rashomon River bank?"

The official positions of Shiro Bingbei Club can be roughly divided into three levels:

The official official title of the top leader is "Tootori", which is held by Shiro Biebe.

The official official name of the cadre is "Fanfang", and Kawajiro and Keiemon whom Ogata met yesterday are the clubhouse's Fanfang.

Down there are ordinary little officials.

At the same time, there are also "temporary workers" hired by the club. The "temporary workers" are not official officials, a bit similar to the "mercenaries" hired by the club.

Melon health and thread convenience fall into this category.

Gua Sheng is always a "mercenary" because of his strong strength, high abilities, and admiration by many people, but his status in the clubhouse is no different from Fanfang.

Each area of ​​Yoshihara is assigned a fan to be responsible for management.

According to Gua Sheng, this "request for assistance" is the responsibility of Fan Fang, who is in charge of the area on the banks of the Rashomon River.

"I don't care." After listening to Guasheng's words, Ogata nodded.

Now that Gokutaro is here, he has also successfully informed Makimura and Asai who are Gokutaro. There is no reason for Ogata to stay in Nakanomachi anymore, so it doesn't matter where he goes now.

After all, Ogata's current status is a servant of the Shirobei Club, so Ogata still has to listen to some orders from the club.

When bidding farewell to Guasheng and preparing to head to the bank of the Rashomon River, Guasheng said to Ogata in a serious tone:

"Mashima-kun, when patrolling and standing guard on the banks of Rashomon River, he must beware not only of those who might be in trouble, but also the wandering girls who live there."

"Those wanderers on the banks of the Rashomon River might sneak attack you from behind, knocking you out, and then grab your money."

"They even dare to grab the money from the people in the club?" Ogata pulled Haori on him, questioning.

"Why didn't you dare to grab it?" Gua Sheng smiled bitterly, "There are many wandering girls on the banks of the Rashomon River who are indifferent to laws and regulations."

"There have been many incidents of tourist girls robbing members of the club for money on the banks of the Rashomon River."

"Anyway, be careful."

"...I know." Ogata nodded, silently remembering Guasheng's reminder, "I will pay attention."

...

...

After bidding farewell to melon, Ogata held the sword at his waist and walked slowly towards the westernmost side of Yoshihara.

A major feature of Yoshihara's layout is that it is centered on Nakanomachi, which is located in the middle. The closer it is to Nakanomachi, the more prosperous it is.

Therefore, as Ogata approached the bank of Rashomon River on the westernmost side of Yoshihara, the noise became thinner.

The surrounding lights also became more and more sparse.

After arriving at the bank of Rashomon River, Ogata instantly felt as if he had gone from one world to another.

As soon as he arrived on the bank of the Rashomon River, Okinawa met a colleague who was wearing the clubhouse Haori just like him.

"Yo." This colleague is quite old, holding a long wooden stick in his hand, guarding at the entrance and exit of the Rashomon River, after looking up and down Ogata a few times, then said, "Are you new here? "

"Yes." Ogata nodded. "Today is the second day of work in Yoshihara."

"Then you should be careful when you patrol and stand on the banks of the Rashomon River."

This caring colleague began to tell Ogata the horror of the Rashomon River bank.

And what he said is similar to what Guao and Ogata said just now.

But this colleague also added some things that Gu Sheng didn't talk about just now.

"The wandering girls on the banks of the Rashomon River don't care if you are a servant of the clubhouse."

"As soon as they saw a man approaching, they dared to go up and solicit customers."

"No matter what the wandering girls on the banks of Rashomon tell you, don't enter their homes." The colleague said, "Only those who are too poor will come to the banks of Rashomon for pleasure."

"As long as you are not too poor, you will never find a wandering **** the banks of the Rashomon River."

"I think you are not very poor."

"So you must never enter the homes of the wandering girls on the banks of the Rashomon River."

"If you get any disease then you will be in trouble."

"I see." Ogata nodded, "I will pay attention."

"I will teach you a way to get out quickly if you are caught up in the Rashomon River bank by the wandering girls."

While the colleague was smiling, he pointed his finger at his left waist.

"If a wandering **** the banks of the Rashomon River entangles you, you will draw your sword."

"Then say: ‘Whoever takes a step forward, cut down on the impunity!’"

"As long as you draw your sword and say these words, there won't be any wanderers who dare to bother you again."

"Although the wandering girls on the banks of the Rashomon River are generally bold, they are not yet bold enough to take a knife against the samurai."

"I see..." Ogata smiled wryly, "Thank you for your suggestion."

...

...

Ogata brushed shoulders with this colleague who was guarding an entrance and exit of the Rashomon River, and formally entered the Rashomon River.

After walking inside for a while, Xu Jian saw an ordinary trail.

Dense houses are lined on both sides of this trail.

A wandering girl stood in front of almost every house.

These wandering girls are either old-fashioned or sickly.

The wandering girls living on the banks of the Rashomon are basically abandoned by their original owners for various reasons, and then forced to live on the banks of the Rashomon.

Because they no longer belong to any wandering girl's house, they can only rely on their own strength to solicit customers.

Whether day or night, there are many wandering girls standing on both sides of the street on the banks of the Rashomon River, using various methods to lure the men who come here to their rooms.

Of course, some wandering girls use brute force to directly pull some men into their homes.

Ogata remembers—according to Guasheng, this is one of the reasons why this place is called the "Rashomon River Bank":

The wandering girls here force the guests into the room, just like the evil spirits of Rashomon.

Ogata tightened the club Haori on his body, and then walked quickly toward the path in front of him.

As for Ogata, who appeared here wearing the clubhouse Haori, some Yugata looked plain, did not approach Ogata to speak, and let Ogata pass by.

Of course, there are also some wandering girls, just as the colleague said just now-it doesn't matter who the man is here.

Just after Ogata walked almost a quarter of the distance on this trail, a wandering girl with a dark complexion stepped forward and walked quickly to Ogata's body:

"Samurai-sama, are you interested in coming and playing with me?"

After the first person appeared, the rest of the wandering girls who were still hesitating just now also summoned the courage and rushed towards Ogata.

Within a short while, Ogata was surrounded by seven wanderers of various ages.

They babbled and persuaded Ogata in every possible way.

What's more, he directly grabbed Ogata's Haori and pulled Ogata.

Regarding this situation, Ogata could not make any other expressions other than a wry smile with helplessness.

"Sorry, I don't have time now."

While yelling like this, Ogata used his own brute force to forcefully step out of the siege of the Yuu girls.

And these wandering girls obviously wouldn't just let Ogata go.

As soon as Ogata emerged from the encirclement, these wandering girls re-enclosed, forming a new encirclement for Ogata.

Ogata kept repeating the steps of being surrounded, breaking through, being surrounded, and breaking through...

After an unknown period of time, Ogata finally crossed and left the trail smoothly.

And after Ogata moved away from the trail, these wanderers finally seemed to have given up, no longer pestering Ogata.

After getting rid of these evil ghost-like wanderers, Ogata finally let out a sigh of relief.

"After I went back, it seemed that I had to smooth it out..." Looking at some of the extra wrinkles on Haori that had been caught by the gang of Yugirls just now, a look of helplessness once again appeared on Ogata's face.

Just as Ogata slapped Haori on his body, trying to pat some clean stains away, a strange male voice suddenly sounded from Ogata's side:

"You are such a weird person."

"Huh?" Ogata looked at the source of the sound, following the sound.

The speaker was a young man leaning against a brick wall.

Looking at this man, Ogata couldn't help but frown slightly.

Because this young man's dress... is really strange...

The young man did not wear a men's kimono.

Instead, he was wearing a white women's kimono.

Men's clothing and women's clothing in this era are still easy to recognize.

The sleeves of women's kimonos are much wider than those of men's kimonos.

The young man's kimono sleeves are very wide-at first glance it is a woman's kimono.

——Why do I always see women's ladies tonight...

Just as Ogata was secretly feeling what happened tonight, the women's clothing tycoon continued:

"When you were being entangled by those wandering girls just now, wouldn't it be okay to just pull out the knife from your waist?"

"As long as you show the knife on your waist~www.wuxiahere.com~ those wandering girls will definitely not dare to pester you."

"Why would you rather spend so much effort slowly getting rid of the entanglement of those wandering girls, rather than pulling out your own knife?"

"You are a stranger who suddenly asks someone a strange question inexplicably..."

After spitting out the strange women's clothing boss, Ogata sorted out the clothes on his body, and then said with a serious tone:

"The sword is a murder weapon specially designed for murder."

"So I don't draw swords casually. I will only draw swords against people who want to hurt me or hurt me."

"The wandering girls just didn't do anything, they just chatted to me endlessly."

"So I won't draw my sword at them."

"Of course-if they put a weapon on my neck and force me into their room, that's another matter."

"... Did someone teach you what you just said?" the lady's lady continued to ask.

"No, it's just a principle that I have realized myself and have always followed."

"...Ha." After being silent for a while, the female lady gave a few chuckles, "My name is'Five Six', how about you?"

"Mashima Goro."

Just after reporting his pseudonym, I paused.

Then smiled:

"Our two names look alike."

The pronunciation of "Five Six" and "Wu Lang" are homophonic, and the pronunciation is almost exactly the same.

"I think so too." The women's clothing boss who called himself "Five Six" showed a faint smile.
