I burn the sky in Kyoto

And Sakamoto Ryoma kept tapping the ground with his cane, showing that he was very irritable, but he still said: "Then wait for the information first."

But in the middle of the night, an Asuka brought a letter, and Sakamoto Ryoma and Katsura Kogoro both looked gloomy after reading it.

"Heshang, come here..." Gui Xiaowulang sighed.

And Sakamoto Ryoma directly handed a Tianzhu order to Kawagami Yansai, saying: "This person is the culprit. Your last task is to kill him who affects our plan, and then hide him immediately. It is best to find someone You girls pretending to be husband and wife or something."

But Heshang Yanzhai froze in place immediately after receiving the Heavenly Punishment Order.

On the Heavenly Execution Order, Li Wei was painted wearing a felt hat, and the reason for the assassination written below was "impacting the progress of the restoration plan."

Chapter 320: If you can't cure foreigners, you can't cure barbarian waste?

In Luye City, Director Okita looked at the corpses on the ground, and from time to time he could see the disgusting liquid on the ground or on the table.

Okita Souji, the captain of the Shinsengumi [-]st Division, is currently combing Tsukiyo's hair, but the top of his head is just smoothed out, not bald.

Even the beautiful boy with a hairstyle like Tsukiyotou couldn't hide it, seeing the corrupt atmosphere here, he let out a dissatisfied "tsk".

"Captain Okita, we restored the scene. The assassin was brought in through the main entrance openly, and then he was taken away by a priest. Then he seemed to kill the priest in shame and anger, found the Milan businessman through the window, and killed him. "Said the warrior on the side.

"Take me to see the priest's body." Okita Souji said.

"Hi!" The samurai saluted, and then led him to a small box.

Inside the box was the corpse of the priest, who was stabbed in the waist from behind, and his throat was cut by the way, blood sprayed to the ceiling.

And what everyone cared about was how the priest died just after taking off his pants, as if he was planning something good, but he was directly stabbed in the back by that so-called good thing.

"Tsk..." Director Okita clicked his tongue again, and when he saw how the priest died, he waved to the samurai next to him, "I said, remember."

"Hi!"

"The one who can be pulled into the box by the priest should be a very small boy, no more than 13 years old, and he should be small and thin, and he may not have developed yet. He looks like a girl, holding a short knife and not strong enough. It's not big, but it's fast..." Okita Souji said.

Just relying on the scene here, he restored Yansai Kawakami's figure, appearance and shape to seven or eighty-eight.

This incident was very bad, because the dead foreigner was a grain merchant related to the food supply of the shogunate, and the impact was extremely bad.

Even the lord of the Changzhou Domain directly ordered a strict investigation into the matter.

Their new selection team is under a lot of pressure, not only him, but other captains, and even the deputy chief Hijikata Toshisan may come over.

It wouldn’t be such a big problem if the people who died were locals, but it was so difficult because the people who died were foreigners. The shogunate itself was already on the verge of collapse. If foreign countries put more pressure on it, it would completely collapse.

Even if it was a great nobleman who died, there would not be such a great pressure.

"Captain Okita, I think the priest wanted to conspire against the assassin, and then he was killed..." the recorded samurai said, speaking for the assassin.

After all, during the Black Ship incident, he saw his sister dragged into an alley by the bald eagle soldiers, and came back half an hour later in ragged clothes and crying.

And I saw some children being taken away by priests and never came back.

At that time, he had no strength, so he trained desperately to become a samurai.

And seeing this scene, he once again thought of himself who had no power.

"No, the assassin came fully prepared, and the priest's death was just an accident." Director Okita shook his head, "Besides, even if the priest really plotted and was killed instead, that person will be caught and executed."

He looked up out of the window, looked at the city, and sighed: "After all, we can't cure foreigners, we can only treat him."

"Captain Okita!" The samurai beside him began to empathize with grief and indignation.

But there is no way, even if foreigners drive impa here, kill people, or even rush into houses and rape other women, at most they will be sent back.

Their samurai have nothing to do, unless they give up their samurai status and join forces with the restorative bastards.

As for the offal of the Reformation, they said they killed foreigners, but killing their own people was hundreds of times more ruthless than killing foreigners.

"Let's start investigating the assassin. Will it be Okada Izo? Or Yagyu Shinbei? Or, Batosai Kawagami Yansai?" Okita Souji looked at the distant port outside the window, the roar of steam freighters, and the constant traffic foreigners and young people.

"Any other discoveries?" he said.

"Captain, according to the investigation, a guard said that he stopped a child before, but the child was taken in by a man dressed like a western farmer with a bald eagle."

"Huh? Tell me in detail." Mr. Okita realized something when he heard "little boy".

"The little boy, the guard's description is pretty much the same as what you just said, and the man in the cowboy outfit looks about 20 years old. He looks a bit like a young man, and also a bit like a foreigner. He should be of mixed race." Another samurai said. Tell the information.

"Yes, that's the man. Heh, I caught a fish. Could you let the guard find a painter to draw a rough outline based on the description from memory?"

"Okay, Captain Okita."

"Then do it, and then use the portrait to search for that assassin throughout Luye City." Director Okita replied.

"Captain Okita, where's that guy in denim?"

"Because we don't know if he is a foreigner, we should focus on searching and not arresting him for now."

"Master Okita, why... that person is also a murderer!" The samurai with a relatively high sense of honor roared.

"Because foreigners can't be ruled, but reformers can be ruled, and they have to be ruled to death!" The kind face of the vice president of Okita disappeared, replaced by coldness, "Do as I say."

The book chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend who has known me for ten years!It’s really easy to use. I use it to pass the time while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here..]

"Ha Yin!"

Some of the warriors below were angry and some were angry, but they didn't dare to speak, and could only leave with their swords.

Even though Mr. Okita knew that his subordinates were dissatisfied with him, he didn't say anything.

Looking out the window, he only felt sadness.

"Through the dark flowers and water, the methods of the reformers will completely drag this country into hell. Even this rotten shogunate is ten thousand times stronger than that disgusting reform government." He murmured.

"Cough cough cough..." He coughed non-stop, took out a handkerchief and covered his mouth.

There was bright red blood on the handkerchief.

"This damn tuberculosis..." He looked at the blood on the handkerchief, and he could clearly feel that his own lungs were riddled with holes. Of course, he would fight for the shogunate until his sword was completely destroyed. Can't cut people.

"Tufang-san, you don't need to take me to Fran for treatment. I know that tuberculosis is a fatal disease..." He murmured, staring at the freighter going away, sinking into the darkness.

In fact, the high-level members of the Shinsengumi knew that they were already remnants of the old era, but they could not see any hope in Wei Xin, only endless despair.

Then it is better to die in the way of the remnants of the old era, and use this tuberculosis body to finally resist the crushing of the steel freighter of the era...

As for the conflicts with foreigners, his time has given him no time to think about such trivial matters.

For some reason, Okita Souji especially hopes that there will be ghosts in the world, so that there will be a clear enemy.I feel that this era without ghosts is even more sad. He even prefers the existence of ghosts and the existence of ghost killing teams. In that case, at least there is a clear enemy. peace.

With such false ideals, he finally drowned on the road to begging ghosts.

They are a group of Shinsengumi Mibu wolves, the big ships of the new era have no place for them.

……

"Open the door, open the door! The Shinsengumi is catching the thief!" One by one, the Shinsengumi samurai knocked on the door, holding a portrait in his hand that was [-]% similar to Kawakami Hikosai, going from house to house to ask and check.

However, apart from Kawagami Yanzhai's, there is another copy, but that portrait is only kept in the bag, and it is fine to record it when it comes across, so don't make too much noise.

The Shinsengumi samurai searched from house to house, but obviously, what they searched was only the houses of the Fuso people. As for the mansions of the foreigners, how could they have such power?

Many foreigners also watched curiously and pointed.

They choose to do business here precisely because the Shinsengumi maintains law and order, and if they go to other places, they can easily be attacked by those hateful reformers.

However, after the black ship docked, the land became like a hot weapon in the eyes of many people.

A face was smeared with black ash, and it looked like a kid who escaped and returned to Luye City.

He wants to complete the final assassination mission, to assassinate...Mr. Li Wei...

But even with a disguise, he desperately avoided the Shinsengumi.

In those portraits, the appearance on them is very close to his appearance.

The members of the Shinsengumi came to the door of a shoemaker's house and slammed the door.

"Open the door, open the door, the Xinxuan Group is doing business, and searching for the thieves!" The warriors shouted loudly.

The door opened directly, but the warriors were completely stunned for a moment when they saw the gatekeeper.

It's not exactly the same as their other person's appearance, at least it's the same mold.

"What's the matter?" Li Wei asked casually.

He naturally knew that Kawagami Yanzhai had been exposed, and it was very likely that he had been investigated.

"It's okay, is this the bald eagle coming?" A warrior asked.

"Huh? That's right." Li Wei replied.

"Then you guys have to be careful recently, the thieves are planning to attack and kill you, if you notice something, you can come to the Shinsengumi." After the samurai finished speaking, he bowed slightly to leave.

Li Wei was a little baffled, he thought that the most polite Shinsengumi would invite him to have a cup of tea, but he never thought about leaving him alone.

He closed the door, and Li Wei walked into the house. At this time, the original owner, the shoemaker Sun, was packing up his belongings and was ready to leave here at any time.

"Mr. Sun, when did you book the boat ticket back to Shanghai?" Li Wei said.

"Guest, I can't be called 'Mr.', so don't let us down." Sun shoemaker said, but he still asked, "It will take three days at the earliest to return to the magic capital, guest, what's going on outside? ?”

"People from the Xinxuan Group are here to catch the Barbarians. You don't need to join in. At least I will stop everything before you board the ship." Li Wei said.

"Then thank you, thank you..." Sun shoemaker kept thanking, and seemed to almost kneel down because of the habit of his hometown.

But Li Wei immediately stopped him.

This shoemaker with braids is actually completely inseparable from Qing's rules.

But the shoemaker's son, who is still just a baby in swaddling clothes, will become the first light on that land, the light that will completely change everything.

And the Sun shoemaker's family is about to leave here. They came here to sell the property here, and then return to the country to make a living. This shoemaker's cottage is their last property in Fusang.

And Li Wei will protect them until they set foot on the boat back to Shanghai.

Chapter 320 Three: My Edo has its own national conditions

The Shinsengumi closed Luye City and started searching for the assassin from house to house.

But because of this, many evils are temporarily hidden.

At this time, Hijikata Toshizo was having a headache, and the office of Shinsengumi welcomed many uninvited guests, all of whom were foreigners rushing to do business.

"Deputy Chief Hijikata, if your Shinsengumi are incompetent, then simply lift the ban. After all, we have been greatly affected when we go out of the city to do business." A Portuguese began to put pressure.

"If you can't catch the murderer, it's better to lift the ban, and we can hire bodyguards ourselves." Another old man also echoed.
