Chapter 154: Why Do Children Want Such a Role?
In a restaurant, Toshiro and Yamazaki sat opposite each other at the same table.
"Oh, Katsura and Takasugi," Toshiro asked as he poured mayonnaise on fried rice, "Then, what did you find out?"
"Ah, I heard that Katsura, who used to be a radical faction, has now become a moderate faction. Katsura has also become a buffering agent to suppress the radical behavior of the rebels." Yamazaki reported, "So it is not difficult to predict the conflict between Katsura and Takasugi. According to my investigation, this time Takasugi even ask the space pirate Harusame to assist him. But the strange thing is that whether it is the Takasugi faction or the Katsura faction, the casualties are negligible. Other than Manslayer Nizou, there are basically no casualties."
"This is really strange. Compared to Takasugi who has Okada Nizou, Takechi Henpeita, and other powerful subordinates, Katsura should not have a few powerful subordinates. But, how can Katsura be able to escape unscathed? And it is also under the condition that Takasugi and Harusame work together." Toshiro, who squeezed out the last few drops of mayonnaise, was puzzled.
Looking at the bowl full of mayonnaise in front of Toshiro, Yamazaki felt a little nauseous, but he still suppressed the disgust and continued to report, "About this, there are two pieces of information. One is that it is said that Katsura has a few strange helpers. Among them, there seems to be a super-strong silver-haired samurai among them and..."
Before Yamazaki could finish, he was stopped by Toshiro, "Silver-haired samurai? It must be that bastard. I really feel that bastard has something to do with the previous Ikedaya incident, but he was smart enough to escape. Go and check it out. Also, what is the other piece of information?"
"Oh, according to the delivery guy who sent the food that day, there was a man with a ponytail on the boat at that time." Yamazaki then replied, "But because the delivery guy was too scared at that time, he left after putting down the food, so he only remembered these things. Moreover, the store's phone was damaged due to the rain and humidity, so the call records of the day were not kept. The clues starting from the email address were cut off like this..."
"Tsk." Toshiro spat. He thought of the naturally black-bellied man with a ponytail who had messed with him several times with Sogo, "It seems that bastard is also related to Katsura. I didn't expect that he has a relationship with Yoshiwara."
"Then what should we do? After all, Yoshiwara is a place that Bakufu also admits to being free from the law." Yamazaki said carefully.
"What should we do? Of course, we have to investigate," Toshiro replied disdainfully, "So what if it's Yoshiwara? If you find something, you don't need to worry about it, just chop him up for me. I will get angry whenever I think of him."
"But, as for Bakufu..."
"Don't worry. Just say that it was my order," Toshiro replied casually. At the same time, he picked up the bowl of fried rice that was full of mayonnaise and began to eat.
Two minutes later, Toshiro finally finished the bowl of fried rice. After burping, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and said.
"Yoshiwara, who has been staying underground honestly all this time, suddenly has a man who dares to come to the ground casually. Moreover, he knows that Yorozuya guys." Toshiro blew out a mouthful of smoke and continued, "Moreover, those Yorozuya guys are so close to that Katsura..."
"What if those two bosses really have something to do with the turmoil?" Yamazaki asked.
"Is there a need to ask?" Toshiro replied without hesitation, "Didn't I just say it? Of course, I want to kill them directly. No matter if they are moderates or radical, they are our enemies."
Looking at the casual face of his deputy chief, Yamazaki really wanted to grab his neck and shout, 'Why don't you personally try to kill people in Yoshiwara!'
However, for his own job, he could only give up.
...
Yamazaki, who was wearing a green school uniform, sat on a bench by the river with a badminton racket on his back after cosplaying Ryoma Echizen and having a badminton addiction face.
'Let alone the Yoshiwara's boss, even the Yorozuya's boss, I dare not make a move! Even if I have the guts to face the Yorozuya's boss, I will surely lose!'
Thinking of this, Yamazaki sighed heavily.
'What should I do? When I think of things related to Bakufu, my head will explode!' Thinking of this, Yamazaki suddenly thought of a good idea! 'Should I play badminton here for a day? Then when I go back to report, I will say that the two bosses have nothing to do with Jouishishi!'
'Nice idea!' Yamazaki praised his own cleverness and then stood up, ready to have another badminton addiction.
However, just as he stood up, Yamazaki's phone suddenly buzzed twice.
[If you dare to slack off, you will commit seppuku when you come back!!]
Looking at the threatening message from his deputy chief, Yamazaki really wanted to curse and submit his resignation, but it was just a thought.
Sighing lightly, Yamazaki left.
"Forget it, let's start with Yorozuya's boss first. As for Yoshiwara's boss, let the deputy chief think of a way himself," Yamasaki said to himself. But then, Yamazaki suddenly thought of something, "Captain Okita seems to have a good relationship with Yoshiwara's boss. Why don't we ask Captain Okita for help?"
As he spoke, Yamazaki took out his phone again and sent a message to Sogo.
...
Yoshiwara.
Kawaki, who was playing the game, said to his teammate Seita, "What's the matter? Don't you throw a smoke bomb?! Why is there nothing in your backpack! If you can't shoot the gun correctly, you should pick up some supplies! Ah, don't you even have a backpack?!"
"I don't like to play this kind of game at all!" Seita raised his face and retorted.
"Then why did you come to my place?" Kawaki looked at Seita with a face full of contempt.
"I haven't appeared in quite a few chapters... so..." Seita rubbed his head and smiled embarrassedly.
Without waiting for Seita to finish laughing, Kawaki directly grabbed Seita, stood up, walked to the door, and threw Seita out, then closed the door and locked it.
"You want to fight for a role at such a young age? It's still too early for you." Kawaki snorted and said.
"It's not fair at all!" Seita knocked on the door and shouted, "I should have some scenes too! After such a long time, the readers will forget my existence!"
Ignoring Seita's words, Kawaki once again sat next to the computer. Looking at the words "GAME OVER" on the computer screen, Kawaki sighed and prepared to start another game.
However, at this moment, the phone in his bosom suddenly vibrated.
[Yamazaki asked me to ask you boss, is there any relationship between you, Katsura, and Takasugi's faction a few days ago? Also, I just successfully blew Hijikata-san away, attachment.jpg. ]
"So it's Sogo-kun," Kawaki said softly. Then, he opened the attached picture. He saw Sogo holding a rocket launcher and behind Sogo was Toshiro, who was lying on the ground with a black body with an afro head.
[I will attend V-shaped bangs' funeral on time. Also, is there anything you want for the gift of Sogo-kun becoming a deputy chief?]
Kawaki created a message and sent it out.
...
Shinsengumi station.
"What's wrong? Did he reply?" Toshiro said as he got up and leaned over.
"Do you want to see it that much?" Sogo curled his lips, revealing a dangerous smile.
"Don't look at me with such a dangerous smile!" Toshiro scolded, "Also, I was deliberately hit by you just to cooperate with the investigation. Don't be too proud, bastard!"
After saying that, Toshiro went up to Sogo and glanced at Kawaki's reply. He was instantly furious.
"Who is V-shaped bangs! That bastard just likes giving people strange names?!" Toshiro cursed, but he finally reacted after cursing, "This bastard hasn't answered the question yet! I knew it. He definitely won't answer so honestly. There is definitely something wrong with this person!"
"Hijikata-san, you should stop before you go too far. Isn't boss an Amanto? Have you seen an Amanto as Jouishishi?" Sogo casually replied, "Also, this time is different from that [Rengokukan] last time. Don't always cause trouble for Kondo-san."
"Do you have the face to scold me?" Toshiro rolled his eyes and retorted, "Who blew up the house every day!"
"Well, Toshi," Kondo also came over at this time, "I think you are thinking too much. Kawaki-san doesn't look like a Jouishishi. If we need to investigate, I should do it myself."
"Then, let me sneak into Yoshiwara to investigate!" Kondo said seriously.
"No, it's too dangerous!" Toshiro retorted, but the next moment, Toshiro saw a corner of a coupon in Kondo's bosom. "Hey, you are just thinking about your own selfish desires!"
"No, that's not it. I was just thinking that I might be able to get some clues from those girls!" Kondo replied righteously, "Also, the coupons that Kawaki-san gave me before are about to expire..."
"In the end, it's all for my own selfish desires!" Toshiro cursed.
"The police can't just focus on arresting Jouishishi! It's also necessary to understand the lives of those women at the bottom of society!" Kondo replied, "And it can also bring benefits to them! This will increase their income and make their lives better!"
"There are so many homeless children on the streets of Edo! Why don't you help them? Why do you only focus on those courtesans!" Toshiro shouted, "There's no need at all! Just stay at the police station! Leave the investigation to Yamazaki!"
"Don't~" Kondo tugged at the corner of Toshiro's clothes and acted like a spoiled child.
"If you act like this, it will only make me feel even more disgusted!" Hijikata replied.
...
After a day of torment, Yamazaki searched through all of Gintoki's acquaintances, but there was no progress.
"Ah, do I still need to investigate myself in the end?" Yamazaki stood at Yoshiwara's door, looking at Sogo's reply as he muttered, "But how exactly do I sneak into Yoshiwara?"
Just as Yamazaki was feeling troubled, he suddenly saw the recruitment poster posted on Yoshiwara's door - [Recruitment for Yoshiwara Self-Defense Forces, Hyakka. With five insurances and a housing fund!]
