The next day—

The seventh year of Anzheng (1860), January 14, early morning—

Edo, Hadebori, Aoto's home—

"Nine Bingwei, I'm out."

"Young master, be careful on the way. Give it your bento."

Wearing a burgundy feather for cold protection and a black scarf, Qingdeng, who had two swords hanging around her left waist, took the bento wrapped in thick cloth handed over by Kyuubi.

In this era, there were naturally no such things as staff canteens in Japan, so most officials brought their own lunch boxes.

After leaving the house and taking a deep breath of the cold air unique to the morning, Qingdeng simply stretched the muscles of his hands and feet, and then rushed out of the path in front of the house in a very standard jogging posture.

Yesterday, after deeply realizing in the test and safety hall that his current physical fitness needs to be strengthened, Qing Deng used the night of last night to formulate a series of fitness plans for himself.

No matter where you go, try to run and move forward - this is one of the fitness plans Qingdeng set for himself last night.

——With a knife around your waist, it’s really a hindrance to run…

Qingdeng looked at the sword and furrow hanging around his waist with helpless eyes.

These two knives were created by Qingdeng's great-grandfather spent 100 taels of money to create, and they were considered as the treasure swords of Qingdeng and the Ju family.

After Qingdeng's father died, these two knives were naturally passed to Qingdeng's hands.

And these two knives are worthy of this price, both toughness and sharpness are first-class.

He wore a knife around his waist. When he was running, the longer-length knives would always hit his left calf, so Qingdeng simply untied the knives and carried them on his shoulders.

Following his memory, he came to the famous bridge located in Edo: the Northern Fan Office next to the Wufu Bridge, and Aoden went straight to his direct superior: Arima's office, ready to report to Arima.

Every morning, the first thing I do after entering the academy is to report to my superiors first - this is one of the rules of the academy.

Halfway through the journey, Qingdeng suddenly heard two familiar voices coming from behind:

"Good morning!

"Good morning, orange."

Qingdeng: "Mr. Niushan, Mr. Zhugu, good morning for you too."

These two young men walking behind Ju and saying hello to Ju, quickened their pace a little and walked side by side with Ju.

Nasuya Banjiro, Niushan Masaji - the names of these two people.

They are both colleagues in the true sense of Qingdeng - like Qingdeng, they are both under the direct command of Arima.

The Dingmachi Hui, which is specifically responsible for maintaining public order, has a total of 2 complications and 6 complications. Each complication is responsible for 3 complications.

The three Tongxins under the jurisdiction of Arima are Qingdeng, Niushan and Zhugu.

The two of them also participated in the search operation of "benevolent and righteous people" the night before yesterday. When the operation was waiting for the start of the operation, the two people sitting on the left and right sides of Qingdeng were Niushan and Zhugu.

Although Zhugu has such a humorous surname, he has a handsome face that is completely unmatched by Zhang and "pig".

Niu Shan's appearance is very consistent with his surname - he has a honest and honest face like a cow.

"Jujun, it was a much rarer day off yesterday. Did you go where to play?" Zhugu put his handsome face close to Qingdeng.

"I went to learn swords yesterday." Not long after I got up, Qing Deng, who was still a little tired, yawned a big yawn.

"Add to learn swords by your master?" Zhugu's eyes widened, "Jujun, have you been uninterested in swordsmanship? Why did you suddenly change your temper? Which sword hall did you become a disciple?"

"A test and health clinic for natural psychological flow."

“…I haven’t heard of the name of the genre or the name of the Sword Hall.”

"It's normal that you haven't heard of Mr. Zhugu. After all, it's a rather unpopular school. Why did I suddenly want to learn swords? I'll tell you slowly when I have time. Let's talk about your affairs. Where did you and Mr. Niushan go to spend the holiday yesterday?"

"Hmph!" Zhugu showed a proud look, stretched out his right thumb and compared it to himself, and whispered in a proud tone, "We both spent a day in Hualiu Street yesterday!"

"Ah, I know..." Qingdeng burst into laughter.

"There's no way." Niu Shan, who hadn't spoken just now, interrupted, "After all, Zhu Gu and I have only this kind of hobby."

"If I remember correctly - Lord Aoma just told you two a while ago, let you two be more restrained..." Qingdeng showed a helpless expression, "I will not plead for you if you are scolded by Lord Aoma again."

Zhutan and Niushan... from a certain perspective, these two colleagues are considered to be a pair of celebrities - celebrities in a certain circle of Edo.

Once these two brothers have time, they will walk on the street!

The two are much older than Qingdeng, who is only 18 years old this year, and are directly older than Qingdeng.

This year, they are both 33 years old. At such a young age, they have successfully completed the feat of "there are two of them active figures in every flower street in Edo"!

If they just go to that kind of place often, they wouldn’t have called them celebrities in that circle. After all, Edo has a population of millions and has such a large population base as support, Edo naturally has no shortage of people who want to live in Huajie twenty-four hours a day.

What really made these two brothers famous was that they both had unique skills.

And the unique skills these two brothers have... that's really a heifer!

Zhugu not only has a good face, but also has good fingers.

It is clearly ten such beautiful and slender fingers, but they have strong explosive power and agility that is extremely incompatible with such an appearance.

Zhugu made countless women reluctant to leave him with just his hands.

If Zhugu has "physics skills", then Niushan has "spell skills".

Although Niushan has a honest and honest face like a cow and is always taciturn on weekdays, in essence, he is a very eloquent person.

He said all kinds of good things that women like to hear. In just a few words, he could make the woman he just met so happy that he coaxed countless women to say loudly: I won’t need money tonight! Please come whatever you want!

The two people who have these two major skills respectively gave them nicknames - Jinkou and Yin Finger in that circle.

Because the two have the same hobbies, the two brothers often go shopping on the Flower Street together. During holidays, they can always see the two brothers on the Flower Street.

The people in the Edo circle will be called the "Gold and Silver Brothers" by these two people who are always with them.

Previously, the two of them also invited "Zhuoju Qingdeng" to turn "Cangqiang Two People Walking" into "Three Musketeers of Flower Street".

But because "Zhu Ju Qingdeng" is a very honest and loyal person, he has always been indifferent to places like Huajie, so every invitation from Zhugu and Niushan was rejected by "Zhu Ju Qingdeng".

The three of them were chatting while rushing to Youma’s office.

After only a moment, they all stood in front of the office room of their direct superior, Dingmachi Hui and Ri Arima Hideyuki.

"Master Arima!" Naruto said aloud to Fangmen, "Marutoshiro, Niushan Masaji, and Kirikito, come and report!"

"Come in." A horse sounded behind the door.

"I'm so rude!" Zhugu opened the door and took the lead in.

After three men entered one after another, they lined up in front of Ama.

Qingdeng: "Good morning, Mr. Arima."

The three of them saluted and greeted Youma.

The office with horses... is so clean and tidy that it is hard to imagine that there are humans working in this room.

The floors, walls, and ceilings are all clean.

All books and files are classified and arranged neatly.

Arima is currently kneeling behind the table, correcting the file, and his waist is erected to form a perfect 90-degree right angle with the tatami under his butt.

After knowing what methods are commonly used to spend the holidays in Zhugu and Niushan, you may think that these two people are really full of personality.

But in fact, in terms of personality... these two people are really a witch compared to Arima.

A horse is... To put it nicely, it has personality, but to put it bluntly, it is a person with a brain problem.

Perhaps it is a problem of tutoring. Arima's three views are like this: since he is a samurai, he must set an example for the common people. He must never do anything contrary to the image of a samurai. He must act properly! Sitting well! Walk steadily! His clothes and living places must always be neat and tidy!

So the waist of a horse, whether sitting or standing, always forms a right angle of 90 degrees with the ground.

Whether it is the office or the clothes on your body, they are always clean and neat.

Qingdeng has never been to Youma's home, otherwise he would really want to see what Youma's home looks like.

The waist is always straight, and the clothes and the location of your own office are always clean - these are still within the scope of understanding.

And some of the other behaviors of Ama are really puzzled.

For example: When a horse turns, it will never turn out an angle other than 90 degrees.

When turning the street corner, if you have a horse, you will first go straight to the center of the intersection, then turn around at 90 degrees, turn to the intersection you want to go to, and then walk straight forward.

For example: no matter when there is a horse, your eyes will not squint.

Whether sitting, standing or walking, the horse's eyes will always look straight ahead and will never tilt your vision.

If he accidentally tilted his eyes, he would show an extremely panic expression like a monk who accidentally broke the precepts.

If you want to see something next to you, he will turn his neck without turning his eyes and vision.

Do you know owls?

The owl's eyes cannot be turned.

Aima's eyes happen to be very big, and he happens to be the kind of person who blinks very low.
