The biggest difference between large tourist houses and small tourist houses is the services they can provide.

The service provided by such a small tourist house is quite simple. After the guests order the woman they like, they can't do anything else besides chatting with the woman and studying the biological differences between men and women.

’s matter.

This is not the case for large-scale tourist houses.

Some large tourist houses often maintain a group of artists in their respective shops to help them.

As the name suggests, entertainers are people who are responsible for performing talents. For example: playing shamisen, pipa and other musical instruments, and performing a few songs and dances.

The person in the gang who is responsible for telling jokes, performing skits, and livening up the atmosphere.

In a large yakuza house like that, you can invite entertainers and gang members to liven up the atmosphere before getting down to business with the yandere.

Just by looking at the appearance of this seven-grass house, you can tell that it is one of the largest tourist houses in this new town. It is normal for their shops to have artists.

But what Sodaemon just said, "Let Ogata and Omachi serve as Hatsuko's guards and assistants" is a bit abnormal...

Before Ogata could ask Sodaemon what he meant by what he just said, Sodaemon began to explain on his own:

"Chu Guang is an outstanding artist that our Seven Cottage recruited last year."

"She has a beautiful appearance and outstanding temperament, and her shamisen playing skills are also very good. As soon as she came to our Seven-Cottage House, she became the number one artist in our Seven-Cottage House."

"Every day, countless people want to invite Chu Guang to perform a song. Although she is an entertainer, her popularity and popularity are no different from that of an oiran."

"How to make popular tourist girls and artists actually requires skills."

"One of the techniques is to give them sufficient battle array."

"To put it simply... it's just like wrapping a gift to make it look better, "packaging" the person you want to make famous is one of the secrets to making them famous and increasing their worth."

"So after Hatsumi became popular, I arranged a beautiful assistant named 'Atong' for Hatsumi. She was responsible for holding the shamisen for Hatsumi when she wasn't playing the piano and performing.

"

"After Atong came to help Chu Guang with his battle, Chu Guang's popularity immediately soared."

"Humph, those who like arty things are so vulgar."

Right and left Tian Weimen sneered at this time.

"As long as you make a mediocre product look high-end, countless people with lots of money will foolishly take the bait."

"For an ordinary wooden chopstick, you only need to inlay some silver on the end of the chopstick, and then do some specious publicity. Even if the price of the chopstick is 1 tael, people who are willing to buy it will flock to it."

"Ah, I'm sorry, I seem to have gone off topic."

"After I assigned Hatsuguang an assistant specifically to help her get shamisen, Hatsuguang's popularity immediately soared."

"But whether it's a prostitute or an artist, once your popularity becomes high, it can easily lead to all kinds of troubles."

"Only four months after Chu Guang came to our Seven Thatched Cottage, an accident happened."

"When Chu Guang was performing for the guests, a madman who was extremely obsessed with Chu Guang suddenly rushed up and hugged Chu Guang."

"Although Chu Guang was not seriously injured in that incident, it still frightened Chu Guang."

"Chu Guang is now the important heart and soul of our Seven Cottage, so since that incident, in order to protect Chu Guang and also to further 'package' Chu Guang, I assigned two highly skilled guards to her."

"At the same time, we also established a rule that in the future, whenever Chu Guang performs for guests at a banquet, the guards have the right to sit behind Chu Guang and protect Chu Guang."

"Actually, this rule is quite overbearing, but Chu Guang's popularity is so high. Even with such a overbearing rule, more and more people are willing to invite Chu Guang to perform."

"The two guards of Chuguang have become the new 'packaging' to increase her value as I expected."

"Hatsuko's working area is not limited to our Seven-Thatched Cottage. As long as he can afford the money, Hatsuko can also perform at other tourist houses, teahouses, and izakayas."

"For example, tonight, the son of a big businessman is hosting a banquet at the Xutian House in Shinmachi. He spends a lot of money to invite our first lady to perform at the banquet."

"Tonight's guest is not an ordinary guest, so we must not neglect him."

"However, just last night, there was an accident at Chuguang's place."

"One of Hatsuko's bodyguards, Ikeda Araiemon, and Hatsuko's assistant, Atong, got close to each other without knowing when."

"Just last night, they eloped secretly."

"This is a big problem."

"As I just said, equipping Chu Guang with an assistant and two guards is her current 'packaging'."

"I have always publicized that our Hatsuko is different from ordinary artists. She has an assistant who helps her get shamisen and two personal bodyguards."

"So if we can't fill the vacancies of assistants and guards before serving our distinguished guests tonight, it will have a bad impact on Chuguang."

"It's just like you advertise that this person can use a 5-foot-long sword to perform the Iai Slash, but when the person arrives at the scene, he only uses a 3-foot-long ordinary sword to perform, it will make the guests feel like they have been cheated.

of."

"It's easier said than done to fill the vacancies of guards and assistants."

"If we just want to survive tonight, the guards may not look for people with great skills for the time being, but their character must be trustworthy."

"The assistant must be a beautiful young girl."

"Only by allocating beautiful women to Chu Guang as assistants can we best 'package' Chu Guang and increase Chu Guang's worth."

"Chu Guang's former assistant, 'A Tong', is a beautiful girl who is qualified to be the number one in any tourist house."

"Although there are many beautiful girls in our Seven-Cottage House, they are all wandering girls. They are busy every night, and it is not appropriate for a wandering girl to serve as an artist's assistant."

"Whether it's a guard or an assistant, it's extremely difficult for me to find a suitable candidate to fill this vacancy in less than half a day."

"Just when I was worried, you guys came."

"And among you, there happen to be two types of people that I urgently need right now: someone who is beautiful enough, and someone who is qualified for the role of guard."

"You are a timely gift to me now."

Udaemon's explanation is finally over.

Ogata, who understood the cause and effect, nodded: "I see..."

"You are Feng-kun's friends." Zuodaemon added at this time, "So I have great confidence in your character."

"And to be honest, I have no other choice but to beg you now."

At this time, Sodaemon's expression turned bitter.

"Besides you, I probably won't be able to find any more beautiful girls or samurai willing to take over as guards before dark."

To put it simply, you are in a hurry to find someone to replace the vacancies of guards and assistants, and you are treating a dead horse like a live doctor...

In his mind, Ogata summed up in one sentence what Udaemon had just said.

"...I just need to take over for one night, right?" Ogata asked Udaemon.

"Yes." Udaemon nodded, "As long as I can survive tonight, then things will be fine."

"Tonight Chu Guang only needs to perform at the banquet of the distinguished guests in Xutian House. There is no need to go to multiple places to perform."

"In order to maintain the price and dignity of Chuguang, I only allow Chuguang to perform in one place every night."

"Will Hatsuko leave immediately after the performance?" Ogata asked.

"Yes." Udaemon nodded again, "Hatsuko will play three pieces of music at the banquet tonight. After the performance, she will leave. After escorting Hatsune back, your work will be completed.

.”

"...I have an ugly scar on my face." Ogata then asked, "So I don't like to take off my hat and face towel. When I take over the position of guard, can I not take off these two things?"

"

"Huh?" Zuodaemon raised an eyebrow, "Can't you take off your face towel and hat?"

"Yes. Because I don't want anyone to see the scar on my face."

At this moment, the expression on Sodaemon's face suddenly became strange.

He looked at Fuma, then at Ogata.

He opened his mouth but stopped talking.

In the end, Sodaemon closed his mouth, pondered for a moment and then nodded:

"...Okay. If you insist on wearing a hat and a scarf, it doesn't matter. After all, the position you need to take over is just a guard."

Ogata pondered.

After pondering for a moment, he turned to Ating and asked:

"...A-Machi, are you willing to be Hatsumi's temporary assistant tonight?"

"I can do it." Amachi replied without thinking, "It's not time-consuming or labor-intensive anyway, it's just helping someone hold the shamisen."

"...Okay." Ogata nodded, and then turned his attention back to Zuodaemon, "Then my wife and I will help you tonight. I hope you can fulfill your promise and give the Second Master's

Let us know where you live."

"Brother." Fuma raised his eyebrows, "Are you and Komachi really going to be the guards and assistants of Hatsune?"

"We do a favor for others, and then they also do a favor for us. It is mutually beneficial. This is reasonable and reasonable." Ogata smiled, "Anyway, the favor they want us to do is not a very troublesome favor."
