Chapter 359 The enemies of the sword saint are gathering in Edo [6100 words](2/3)

Ogata had witnessed several Misebans with warm smiles on their faces pulling some hesitant people into their stores semi-forcefully who didn't know which store to go to.

Of course, these kenseban only dared to pull in civilians who did not have swords on their waists. Almost no kenseban would have any physical contact with samurai.

The reason why I try not to have physical contact with the samurai is to avoid encountering the kind of lunatic who likes to shout, "Ah, you dare to touch my sword, you have defiled the soul of the samurai, watch me kill you."

However - even though they won't force samurai to enter the store, when they see a samurai passing by their store, they will still greet the samurai enthusiastically and introduce how great their store is.

How awesome.

Ogata no longer remembers how many Misebans he has met since he entered Yoshihara. The number is too numerous to count.

Even Ogata felt a little annoyed by being disturbed by these visits again and again.

"Those people soliciting customers are so annoying..." Ating said unhappily.

"Yeah." Ogata nodded with deep sympathy, "It's really annoying..."

Just when Ogata was thinking about whether there was any way to stop these world-watching fans from disturbing him anymore——

"Go away! Go away, everyone!"

A series of shouts suddenly broke out from the crowd in front.

The crowd in front was not dense, and Ogata was taller than most of the people around him, so Ogata only looked forward and saw clearly what was going on in front of him:

A bald man was running towards him with a panicked expression.

The bald man shouted "get out of my way" and pushed away all the people who were blocking him in a very rough manner, causing everyone to scream and scold.

Just when Ogata was thinking about what was going on with this bald man who was in a panic, loud shouts from behind this guy told Ogata the answer:

"Hurry! Catch him! He is a thief!"

Behind this bald man who was in a panic was followed by several people.

These people were all wearing the haori of the Shirobei Club. They were holding wooden sticks in their hands. While chasing the bald head, they kept shouting, informing the people around them of the identity of the bald head, and asking the people around them to work together.

Catch the thief.

——It turns out to be a thief...

After secretly saying this in his heart, Ogata turned his gaze and stared at the bald man who was rushing straight towards him. He handed the large box of steamed buns he was carrying in his right hand to his left hand and slowly

Raise your right hand and reach for Da Shi Tian on your waist.

After all, he was just catching a thief, so Ogata only planned to use the back of the knife to fight against the enemy, and use the back of the knife to stop the thief and knock him unconscious.

As soon as Ogata put his right hand on the handle of Da Shiten's sword, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a petite figure suddenly emerge from behind the bald man.

I saw this petite figure running up to the eaves of the girl's house at a very fast speed, then crossing the crowd under the eaves along the eaves, reaching in front of the bald head and jumping.

When this petite figure jumped down from the eaves, it landed precisely in front of the bald head, landing between Ogata and the bald head.

Looking at the petite figure that suddenly appeared in front of him, Ogata raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He knew this man.

It was during today's day that I had a chance encounter with Kusen Hide, which is known as "Yoshiwara Doshin".

Unexpectedly, someone could actually get ahead of the bald man in front of him by walking on the eaves. His face was full of panic. Although he had tried hard to slow down, his body still continued to rush forward by relying on inertia.

Just like that, he rushed into Gua Sheng's best attack range.

After the bald head came into his attack range, Guasheng quickly drew out the wooden knife from his waist and aimed at the bald head's neck to make a horizontal slash.

The wooden knife hit the bald head accurately on the neck, knocking the bald head directly to the ground.

After Guasheng knocked the bald man over, the officers from the Shirobei Club who had been chasing the bald man finally caught up.

"Tie this guy up and take him to the club." Gua Sheng ordered the officials. "And - search this guy's body and dig out all the money bags that this guy stole."

"Yes!" The officers responded in unison, then swarmed up and suppressed the bald man. While tying the guy up with a hemp rope, they groped up and down his body.

In a short time, three money bags of different styles were taken out from the bald man's body.

With all the evidence in hand, the bald man with his head drooped and a bloodless face, like a defeated rooster, allowed the officers of the Shirobei Club beside him to escort him to the club.

Guasheng did not follow her companions back to the club.

Instead, he put the wooden sword in his hand back to his waist, took a deep breath, and then slowly turned around.

As soon as she turned around, she saw Ogata and Omachi standing behind her.

Looking at Ogata and the two, a look of surprise appeared on Gua Sheng's face.

"What a coincidence." The surprised look only appeared on Guasheng for a moment, and then turned into a faint smile, "We meet again."

"Yeah." Ogata agreed with a smile, "It's indeed a coincidence."

"Look at you guys like this. You came here to Yoshiwara for something, right? Do you need my help?"

"You can see this?" Amachi asked in surprise.

"I am an old man who has been working in Yoshihara for a long time." Gua Sheng said with a smile, "I can tell at a glance which people are here to have fun and who are here to do business."

"Your eyes are very poisonous." Ogata raised the large box of steamed buns in his hand, "We are here to deliver steamed buns to a tea house."

"Are you sending steamed buns...which one are you going to?"

"Sakuramonya." Ogata answered.

"Sakuramon House...it's a bit far away."

After saying that, Gua Sheng turned around and raised his hands towards Ogata and Atachi.

"Come with me, I will take you to Sakuramon House."

"Ah, that's not necessary." Ogata said quickly, "We asked for directions just now and we know how to get to Sakuramon House."

"It's okay." Gua Sheng waved his hand proudly, "You just helped me at noon today, so it's only right that I help you with this small favor."

"Anyway, I'm just patrolling Yoshihara aimlessly."

"Taking you to Sakuramon House doesn't hinder my work."

"Just think of it as patrolling the road from here to Sakuramon House."

"Besides - if you have me leading the way, there will be many benefits."

"For example: No thief will dare to approach you."

"At the same time, you won't be harassed by those annoying world fans."

"Then I'll trouble you." As soon as Gua Sheng finished speaking, Oufang said with a serious face.





Under the guidance of Ogata and Amachi Yuguao, when heading to Sakuramon House——

Edo, Yoshiwara, Shirobei Club.

Shirobei Club has three floors.

In a secret room on the third floor, three people were sitting on the tatami.

2 old men and 1 young girl.

"It's been so long, Genichi."

One of the old men said in a passionate tone to the other old man in front of him.

"When was the last time we met...? I've even forgotten."

"I forgot too. I just remember that you didn't have that little black hair on your head at that time."

The only girl in the room was Lin, who accompanied Genichi to Shirobei Club.

And those two old men were none other than Genichi and Shirobei, the general manager of the Shirobei Club.

In all walks of life in Japan, there is a tradition of honoring people.

This is true in the literary and artistic circles, this is true in the martial arts world, and it is also true in the political world.

Every general manager of the Shirobei Club will automatically adopt the title of "Shirobei".

The old man currently sitting in front of Genichi and Lin is the Sixth Generation Shirobei. He is already a 65-year-old man with gray hair.

"Shirobei, let me introduce you." Genichi stretched out his hand and pointed at Lin beside him, "This is my great-niece—Kinoshita Lin."

As soon as Genichi finished speaking, Lin respectfully saluted Shirobei and said hello.

"Are you Genichi's grand-niece... That's right! The area between your eyebrows does look a lot like Genichi!"

Although Lin has been to Edo many times, this is the first time she has come to Yoshiwara.

When she came to Yoshiwara for the first time, this was also the first time Lin met her uncle's old acquaintance.

After ending the deal with Tojo Daigo, the most powerful Yakuza in East Japan, Genichi told Lin: In the entire Edo, the only person left who was trustworthy and who might have the ability to find the location of the Shiranui base was Shiro.

One soldier.

Although it is not clear what the relationship between my uncle and Shirobei is.
