I formed the strongest swordsman group

It's not surprising that people who are drunk can do anything.

Qingdeng only regarded Shimizu Wuzuo, who had no intention of negotiating, and called him without explanation, as a group of people who were "drunken and sexually disordered".

Only now did Qingdeng belatedly realize that the whites of Shimizu Gozuo's eyes were extremely red, and the dense red blood almost filled the entire whites of his eyes.

At this moment, Qingdeng felt a little strange... Did this person suffer from some kind of eye disease?

But back to Qingshui Wuzuo——while clutching his left elbow that was twisted by Qing Deng just now, he slowly got up, breathing heavily and abruptly.

"Hoo... woooo...! woooo...! woooo...!"

He let go of his left elbow and pressed his palms to his forehead.

A puff of turbid air spewed out from his clenched teeth.

When he let go of his palms and slowly raised his face, Qing Deng suddenly found that the eyes of this person were as muddy and "muddy" as a muddy road under a rainstorm!

bass!

Shimizu Wusaku pulled out the wakizashi that was hanging on his left waist.

The shining silver-white sword body, under the moonlight, reflected a dazzling cold light.

Exclamations erupted from the crowd of onlookers.

The ugly look reappeared on the faces of Da Yueshi and his party.

"I, I am an adult?"

At this time, the younger brothers of Qing Shuiwu also showed shocked expressions.

Fighting with bare hands and using a knife... These are two kinds of incidents!

Shimizu Wuzuo turned a deaf ear to all these reactions from the outside world.

He just put on a good posture, and then he aimed at Qingdeng's chest like a straight arrow!

If this sword is stabbed... then Qingdeng will be seriously injured if he is not dead.

This guy actually made such a ruthless move... Qingdeng's eyelids and face both sank.

Facing the attack of Gosaku Shimizu, whose whole body was swaying due to drunkenness, there was no reason why Qing Deng, who had the two great talents of "Hawkeye Eye" and "Seeing Through", couldn't avoid it.

Qing Deng unhurriedly shifted his body half a step to the left, allowing Shimizu Gozuo's Wakizashi to stab through the air.

Qing Deng was surprised to find that compared to just now, the strength and speed of Shimizu Gozuo seemed to have improved a lot.

Gosaku Shimizu, who failed to attack, quickly regained his posture and delivered the next blow to Qingdeng.

This time, Shimizu Wu made a change to a brand new attacking method - he changed the flank gap in his right palm into an upside-down grip, lowered the center of gravity of his body, and turned his left hand into a claw, grabbing Qingdeng's left shoulder like a black tiger digging out its heart.

From the actions Qing Shuiwu made, Qing Deng could tell at a glance what kind of martial art he was using—a variant of Jiu-Jitsu: Xiaojuzu.

Xiaojuzushu is a martial art that was born on the battlefield and is specially used to deal with enemies wearing armor.

First put the opponent to the ground, and then take out the wakizashi to attack the gaps in the neck, armpits and other nails.

Because of its strong lethality and being very suitable for street fighting, Xiaojuzushu is one of the most popular martial arts among thieves and Yakuza.

Therefore, during the years when he was an errand in the Dingding town of Beifan, Xiaojuzushu was one of the martial arts that Qingdeng was most exposed to.

This time, Qingdeng did not dodge like before, but stood still with his legs spread apart, allowing Qingshui Wuzuo's left claw to grab it.

The next moment when his palm firmly locked onto Qingdeng's left shoulder, Shimizu Gosaku immediately stretched his waist and tried to push Qingdeng to the ground with all his might.

However, he was shocked to find that he couldn't move Qing Deng's body at all.

Qingdeng's body seemed to be sucked to the ground, flexible and stable, and his feet seemed to be rooted on the ground.

Taking advantage of this moment, Qingdeng held the five fingers of his left hand together, and slashed Qingshui Wuzuo's right wrist with a hand knife.

Just at this moment, Shimizu cried out in pain, and the wakizashi in his right hand fell to the ground with a "clang".

The next moment, Qing Deng's waist sank, his arms were inserted into Shimizu Gosaku's armpits, and he was thrown out with all his strength.

Shimizu Gosaku's body was not very heavy, he was thrown a few meters away like a piece of rag, he landed on his back, straightened and came into intimate contact with the ground.

"I am an adult!"

The subordinates of Qingshui Wuzuo stood up, enduring the pain in all parts of their bodies, and ran towards Qingshui Wuzuo who fell to the ground.

However, before his subordinates arrived, Gosaku Shimizu stood up by himself.

While getting up, he silently reached into the lapel of the bathrobe and took out a pocket sword.

The so-called Huaijian is a dagger shorter than Wakizashi.

Gosaku Shimizu, who still wanted to fight Qingdeng again, violently pushed away the subordinates surrounding him, and charged straight at Qingdeng once again.

The endurance of Shimizu's work is indeed somewhat beyond Qingdeng's expectations.

"Ha..." While staring at Han Mang who was getting closer and closer to him, Qingdeng lowered his waist slightly, and slowly moved his naturally hanging right palm to the handle of the ghost-fixing knife.

Then--

choke!

The cold light of the sword covered the moonlight!

The white blade that popped out of the sheath accurately hit the tip of the sword in mid-air, and directly knocked Wuzuo Shimizu's sword into the air.

The "flying into the sky" sword in his arms flew up to a height of nearly three floors, and then plunged heavily into the roof of a nearby shop with the tip of the knife facing down.

Qingdeng's sharp knife seemed to have finally "sobered up" Shimizu Wuzuo a little bit.

A frightened look flashed across his face, he took a few steps back and returned to the crowd surrounded by his subordinates.

If Qingdeng was willing, Shimizu Gosaku and his subordinates would have already become corpses.

The reason why he has been slow to kill... is not because he is afraid of things, but because if he uses the butcher knife tonight, then he and Kinoshita Mai will definitely not be able to see the fireworks tonight.

This short battle finally became quiet and stopped at this moment.

Surprised by Qingdeng's skill, Shimizu Gosaku and the others stopped rushing forward without any plan, and they confronted Qingdeng at a distance of about 7 steps.

At this moment, Chang Ci and the others, who had been staring at Qingdeng with horrifying gazes since just now, slowly turned their gazes to Otsuki Mi.

This is that Juqingdeng?

You call this "dumb"?

Didn't you say that he is a mediocre mediocre talent who can't do anything?

...

Often times their sights convey such information fiercely.

Faced with the gazes of Chang Ci and others, Da Yueshi had no time to take care of it.

"He, he actually won...?" Da Yueshi, who was muttering like this, looked like he had seen a ghost.

At this moment, she was immersed in a violent "brainstorm" with her whole body and mind.

Why? what happened? ——This group of words flashed back and forth in Da Yueshi's mind over and over again.

No matter what, she couldn't equate the "dumb Deng" in her mind with the Qingdeng in front of her who showed great power and defeated his opponent with one against five.

When did that "Daddy" who used to just circle around her like a puppy become so powerful?

Qingdeng's sudden appearance and attack made the surrounding onlookers watch a wonderful scene.

Some people who were excited to watch looked at Shimizu Wu as a group with a look of fun that "watching the excitement is not a big deal".

Qingshuiwu, as a group, is now in a difficult situation.

Have you ever fought Qingdeng again? It's not someone else's opponent at all.

Just leave? It's hard to save face.

The subordinates that Qing Shuiwu made were all rough men who had no wisdom at all and only knew how to use force to solve problems.

So they don't know what to do now, they can only look at Shimizu Wuzuo for help.

But when they looked at Wuzuo Qingshui surrounded by them, they were shocked to find that the current appearance of Wusaku Qingshui...is very strange.

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...!!"

Gosaku Shimizu, who covered his face with his hands, panted harder and harder.

Even Qingdeng noticed that Shimizu Wuzuo was strange at the moment.

——Is he...drinking too much? Or what disease occurred?

When Qing Dengzheng didn't understand why, Shimizu Wusaku suddenly let out a tiger-like roar.

"Go away! Go away!"

Shimizu Wu made a big hand, and put on a posture of wanting to push away the subordinates beside him, and fight Qingdeng again.

Seeing this, the subordinates were all terrified.

Qingdeng has already drawn his sword... In this era, it is a very serious signal for a samurai to draw his real sword.

This means that the other party no longer minds killing...

Worried that if Qingshui Wuzuo rushed forward so recklessly, Qingdeng's subordinates would kill Qingdeng, and quickly grabbed Qingshui Wuzuo to death.

"Let go! Let me go! Boy! Sign me up!"

Shimizu Wusaku yelled, while swinging his arms in a very exaggerated range, shaking his head, his bloodshot eyes flashed with a violent and fierce light like a long-starved carnivorous beast.

Outspoken, hysterical.

"How dare you throw me to the ground! Let me tell you, you are doomed!"

"I'm the nephew of the leader of the 'Qingshui Clan'! Just wait! I'll call someone now! Let my subordinates come over and deal with you!"

The remarks made by Wu Shimizu changed the atmosphere of the scene immediately.

Da Yueshi and his party are now in a state of sharing weal and woe with Qingdeng who rescued them.

They unconsciously scanned Qingdeng and Shimizu Gosaku back and forth with horrified eyes.

That's right, what's the use of Qingdeng even if he can fight? He is the nephew of the "Qingshui Clan", and he leans against a towering tree. What if he really calls in a lot of helpers?

Qingdeng can fight 5 with 1... But can he still fight 15 with 1?

The surrounding onlookers were also discussing at this time.

"Hey, is this person really Shimizu Eiichi's nephew?"

"It's really... I once had a relationship with Shimizu Eiichi's nephew... This person is really Shimizu Eiichi's nephew: Shimizu Gosaku."

"Tsk... If that's the case, that samurai is terrible... He actually offended the 'Shimizu Clan'... Unless he escapes from Edo, he will never have peace from now on."

"Sigh... I don't know if I can see the 'Qingshui Clan' perish in my lifetime..."

"Hush ... Hush ... this kind of words can't be said in the general court ... If people are heard, then it will be troublesome ..."

A large number of onlookers lamented Qingdeng's future fate...but some people made such "disharmonious voices":

"Hey, do you think that warrior looks familiar?"

"Well, I also feel... as if I've seen him somewhere..."

...

Da Yueshi and the others, as well as the onlookers, were worried about the safety of Qingdeng who had offended the "Qingshui Clan"... But as the person involved, Qingdeng was quite calm.

"...'Qingshui Clan'?"

Qingdeng raised his eyebrows lightly, his expression became weird at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This person turned out to be from the "Qingshui Clan"... This really surprised Qingdeng.

"Surprised" in various aspects...

Looking at Qingdeng's expression, he thought Qingdeng was the scared Gosaku Shimizu, took a few breaths, held his head high, and roared in a more rampant and unscrupulous manner:

"Ijiro! Hurry up and go back to the old camp of our "Shimizu Clan" to call people! Call me as many people as there are..."

"enough!"

Like thunder on the flat ground... A loud shout came from the crowd behind Qingshui Wuzuo, interrupting Qingshui Wuzuo's arrogant words.

This sudden shout sounded rather old... The speaker should be a middle-aged man.

Qingdeng didn't recognize the voice, but Shimizu Gosaku seemed to know the owner of the voice.

Because at the very moment after this big drink fell, Shimizu Gosaku's expression suddenly stopped.

Immediately afterwards, his eyes full of ferocious light slowly returned to clarity as if washed by clear water.

After that, a look of panic climbed up his pupils and cheeks...

Everyone at the scene turned their attention to the direction of the middle-aged male voice at this moment - a middle-aged man with his hands behind his back and a bamboo hat with a low edge on his head, leading a young man, walking slowly Walking towards Qingdeng and the others, all the onlookers standing in front of the two of them gave way to the two sides, making room for a spacious one-way street.

Qingdeng didn't recognize this middle-aged man wearing a bamboo hat. But Qingdeng knew that young man—it was Sasaki who had just met.

Sasaki noticed Qingdeng's gaze, smiled, and nodded to Qingdeng.

The middle-aged man who became the focus of the audience at this moment because of the shout just now, stepped on a steady pace without being affected by the surrounding eyes, and stood beside Gosaku Shimizu.

A weird situation happened at this moment.

Just now Gosaku Shimizu, who was so arrogant and hysterical like a lunatic, suddenly shrunk his whole body slightly like a mouse meeting a cat after the middle-aged man appeared... His face was full of fear.

"Uncle...uncle..."

As soon as Qing Shuiwu said this, there was an uproar at the scene... Even Qing Deng couldn't help showing surprise.

Being called "Uncle" by Shimizu Wu... Many people murmured in their hearts "No way..."

...

...

After Shimizu Eiichi knew from Sasaki that his nephew was drinking nearby and had entered a state of drunkenness, he stood up blankly. While ordering Sasaki:

"... Sasaki, help me find a boat painting job... Let's postpone it for now, you follow me to find my worry-free nephew."

No matter when he was giving orders to Sasaki, or when he set out to find Gosaku Shimizu, Eiichi Shimizu remained expressionless the whole time...it was hard to tell what he was thinking.

For Sasaki, the job of "finding someone nearby" was too simple.

He mobilized all his subordinates and asked them to dispatch to find the trace of Shimizu Gosaku.

After a while, a report came from someone: I saw Gosaku Shimizu fighting with someone in XXX.

Shimizu Eiichi led Sasaki to the report site, and then he saw his nephew who was yelling wild words at Qingdeng...

At that moment, Shimizu Eiichi, who was always indifferent to emotions, shrank his pupils slightly.

At this moment, the middle-aged man... the leader of the "Shimizu Clan": Shimizu Eiichi, looked at Shimizu Wu expressionlessly.

Snapped!

Then, with lightning speed, he slapped Shimizu Gosaku's right cheek violently!

Shimizu Eiichi used great force.

Shimizu Wusaku was slapped and moved 3 steps to the left before falling heavily to the ground.

Being slapped in the face in public... Shimizu Gosaku didn't show any resentment or anger.

He sat slumped on the ground, clutching the slapped part, with his head lowered, not to mention that he was dissatisfied with Qing Shuirong's slap in the face, he didn't even dare to look up at Qing Shuirong.

"You bastard..."

Shimizu Eiichi said lightly.

"I've warned you countless times, don't cause trouble for me outside."

"..."

"What's going on with you tonight? Why are you ignoring my warning again?"

"..."

"I really don't know how to punish you... It's nothing more than causing trouble, but I even bothered His Excellency Renwang."

"……Eh?"

Gosaku Shimizu, who had been keeping his head low and not saying a word, finally made a sound at this time.

He slowly raised his head and stared at Shimizu Eiichi with astonished eyes.

In an instant, the surrounding, which was still slightly noisy, became silent.

The faces of the spectators gathered here were full of surprise and excitement.

Gosaku Shimizu and his subordinates changed their faces.

The faces of Da Yueshi, Chang Ci and others also changed immediately, their expressions were dominated by intense horror.

All these changes... are all because they all clearly heard the title that just came out of Shimizu Eiichi's mouth-King Ni!

"King Ni..." Da Yueshi repeatedly murmured the mighty title of this samurai who was said to have suppressed Edo's "radical anti-barbarians" by virtue of his high strength.

——Is he... Shimizu Eiichi...

Qingdeng lowered his eyelids slightly, and carefully looked at Shimizu Eiichi's face.

This was the first time he met the leader of the "Qingshui Clan".

Shimizu Eiichi's first impression of Qingdeng...was ordinary.

Ordinary facial features, there is no place that looks ugly, but it also lacks eye-catching elements, so it can only be classified as ordinary.

If there is no big conspicuous burn mark on the left cheek, then Shimizu Eiichi belongs to the kind of ordinary existence that would be buried instantly if mixed with the crowd.

The height is also average... According to Qingdeng's visual inspection, Eiichi Shimizu's height is less than 1.6 meters, at most only 1.57 meters, 1.58 meters

Also fairly average, was his build, neither muscular nor thin.

In a nutshell——if you only recognize it from the outside, you will never recognize this person as the leader of the "No. 1 Yakuza Group in Edo".

Unexpectedly, at this very moment when Qingdeng was carefully scrutinizing the appearance of the middle-aged man who had been known for a long time, Shimizu Eiichi turned around slowly and faced Qingdeng.

"Your Excellency, I am very sorry for what happened tonight."

"My nephew was rude and offended you."

"I have neglected to discipline my family members. Please forgive me."

After finishing speaking, Eiichi Shimizu leaned over slightly, and bowed to Qingdeng in a manner that was neither humble nor overbearing.

It was as if the frozen time started to rotate again, and the noisy sound resumed.

The leader of the famous "Qingshui clan" saluted and apologized to Qingdeng so humbly... Regarding this scene, the spectators showed various expressions and discussed differently.

"..." Otsuki, who barely managed to lift his lips and tongue and murmured "King Ni" just now, was speechless at this moment.

She, Chang Ci and the others were stunned... No, to be precise... It was their expressions and emotions that were numb.

Ever since Qingdeng suddenly appeared, all kinds of horrifying realities that made them feel astonished were spread before their eyes one after another...

Among the wave after wave of "spiritual shock", the wave of shock that is being carried out in the "present continuous tense" has shocked them the most.

Before being harassed by Gosaku Shimizu, they were still discussing how powerful the "Shimizu Clan" is, and how great it is for them to be able to negotiate a big deal with such a behemoth as the "Shimizu Clan"...

As a result, in the blink of an eye, the leader of this "Big Mac" saluted and apologized to a young man who was less than 20 years old with the utmost humility.

Looking at this scene, Da Yueshi and the others couldn't help but feel absurd.

What made them feel even more absurd was that this young man who was treated so courteously was the "dumb" they had just ridiculed...

They only feel a strange "floating feeling" and unrealistic feeling that they are surrounded by clouds and mist, and they are floating in the air.

Changci and his friend turned their stiff necks, and once again sent a questioning look to Da Yueshi, "Do you call this man 'Daitou Deng'?"

In essence, Qing Deng was also surprised at the moment.

Shimizu Eiichi is doing him too much face...Qingdeng already felt that the gaze directed at him was getting hotter.

Qingdeng didn't feel complacent or elated.

Originally, he had always been puzzled and skeptical about the matter of "the 'Qingshui clan' treated him too warmly".

Shimizu Rong treated him so courteously... This actually aroused Qingdeng's wariness even more.

"...The conflict between me and my nephew Ling was purely accidental."

Qingdeng bowed slightly, and returned Qingshuirong's gift one by one, which was equal to Qingshuirong's.

"It's all because my nephew suddenly committed violence in the street..."

Qingdeng explained to Eiichi Shimizu in detail the scene that Gosaku Shimizu led his subordinates beating Otsuki and his party, which he witnessed, without omission or exaggeration.

Shimizu Eiichi quietly listened to every word and every sentence Qingdeng said.

After Qingdeng finished speaking, he turned sideways and looked at Da Yueshi and the others who were still slumped on the ground.

"I'm extremely sorry. My nephew's rudeness offended you all."

Shimizu Eiichi also bowed to Otsuki and the others...but the degree of bending of the waist was far less than the angle at which he bowed to Qingdeng just now.

"I would like to apologize to you on behalf of my stupid nephew."

After saying this, Shimizu Rong straightened up and glanced at Sasaki behind him.

"Sasaki."

Sasaki, who was very discerning, nodded vigorously, and answered "Yes" loudly.

Then, he stretched his hands to the back of his waist, took off a money bag that was bigger than an adult's fist hanging from his back waist, and handed it to Shimizu Eiichi with both hands.

Shimizu Rong didn't even look at the purse, and just held it in his hand.

As expected of Eiichi Shimizu, who has seen countless people, he immediately recognized Otsuki Mino and his gang, which one of them was capable of talking.

He walked quickly to Chang Ci in three steps at a time, and squatted down so that his eyes were at the same level as Chang Ci's.

"Small compensation, I hope you will not hesitate to accept it."

"Okay, okay..."

The "Qingshui Clan" is much bigger than their Da Yue Clan. Tsuneji, who was in contact with a big man of this level for the first time, was flattered, and while stammering "yes", he accepted Shimizu Eiichi's compensation with mechanical movements.

"Fool! Why don't you come here and apologize?"

Shimizu Wuzuo shuddered violently.

He got up with a movement like an instinctive reaction, quickly ran to Shimizu Eiichi's side, bent his knees respectfully, and bowed deeply to Otsuki and his party.

"I'm very sorry! My stupidity has caused everyone trouble, please forgive me!"

"Are these the only people you need to apologize to?"

Qingshui Wuzuo was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned around, facing Qingdeng.

"Your Excellency Nioh! I'm very sorry! It's my eyes that don't know Mount Tai! I offended Your Excellency, but please forgive me!"

I originally came to help Da Yueshi and his party.

Therefore, Qingdeng is naturally happy to see that the current incident can end peacefully.

Qingdeng nodded slightly, expressing his willingness to accept Shimizu's apology.

In front of a top boss like Eiichi Shimizu, how dare Otsuki and the others say "I don't accept your apology"?

They nodded hurriedly, while repeatedly expressing that they had received Gosaku Shimizu's sincerity in apologizing, and were willing to forgive Gosaku Shimizu.

Under Shimizu Eiichi's long-sleeved dance, the tense atmosphere that was permeating everywhere until a few minutes ago was finally calmed down.

"Sasaki, take this idiot away."

"yes!"

Sasaki lifted Gosaku Shimizu, who was drooping his head and lost his mind.

Before leaving with Shimizu Gosaku and others, Shimizu Eiichi walked up to Qingdeng.

"Your Excellency King Ren, please allow me to apologize to you again. You would like to forgive your nephew for being rude, but I really don't know how to thank you."

"You don't need to be too polite." Qing Deng said lightly.

Shimizu Eiichi smiled slightly, and then saluted Qingdeng humbly.

When he lowered his head until Qingdeng couldn't see his facial expression, Shimizu Rong suddenly rolled up a pair of eyeballs, and looked deeply at Qingdeng with meaningful eyes...

"Then—please let me take my leave first."

...

...

Shimizu Eiichi left with Shimizu Gosaku and Sasaki.

There was no excitement to watch any more, and the onlookers scattered away one after another.

However, there are still many people who don't know whether they are yearning for Qingdeng or simply idle and have nothing to do. They stay where they are, looking at Qingdeng with curiosity and surprise.

"..." After watching all the way until Shimizu Eiichi could no longer be seen, Qingdeng turned around expressionlessly and looked at Otsuki and his party behind him.

At this moment, except for Da Yueshi, who was just slapped on the cheek, the rest of them were all beaten into pig's heads. The group was supporting each other and slowly stood up from the ground.

Sensing Qingdeng's gaze, they raised their heads to meet Qingdeng's gaze.

At the moment they met Qingdeng's eyes, thousands of expressions appeared on their faces.

Feeling lucky to survive the catastrophe...

The decadence of flying disaster...

Thanks to Qingdeng...

I can't believe that I was actually saved by "Daddy"...

...

As far as the result is concerned, there was no doubt that they were saved by Qingdeng just now.

If Qingdeng hadn't stepped forward in time, they might still be beaten by Shimizu Gosaku until now.

At the same time, anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was mostly thanks to Qingdeng that they received such courteous treatment from Eiichi Shimizu.

Otherwise, why would the decisive leader of the "Qingshui Clan" show such a friendly attitude towards them.

"Mr. Orange..." Changci, who was being supported by Otsuki, bowed his head first, and thanked Qingdeng in a humble tone mixed with a hint of apology, "I really... don't know how to thank you It's good..."

Chang Ci's friends hurriedly followed up, like Chang Ci, bowed their heads respectfully to Qing Deng, saluted, and thanked Qing Deng.

"Orange..." Da Yueshi bit her lower lip lightly, her eyes dodged, "Just now... thank you very much..."

Da Yueshi never imagined that he would have a day to thank this young man whom he had always looked down upon...

"You're welcome." Qing Deng said lightly.

He only helped Otsuki and the others because he wanted to repay Toshi Miyagawa's kindness, and because he couldn't get used to this kind of behavior of bullying men and women in public.

So he didn't care much about the thanks from Da Yueshi and others.

"..." Da Yueshi opened his mouth, and when he was about to say something more——

"Qingdeng!"

A beautiful red figure quickly ran out from the crowd beside him, and ran straight towards Qingdeng.

The lines on Qingdeng's face softened instantly.

On the contrary, at the same time, the lines on Da Yueshi's face tightened.

——Who is this? !

Otsuki was extremely shocked, staring blankly at Kinoshita Mai who suddenly appeared and was already standing beside Qingdeng.

——She is...Tachibana's friend?

If 10 passers-by were asked to compare the looks of Otsuki Mino and Kinoshita Mai, all 10 of them would say without hesitation: Of course, Kinoshita Mai is more beautiful.

In terms of appearance alone, Da Yueshi's face can only be regarded as good-looking, prettier than ordinary women.

If you use numerical values ​​to score... If the full score is 100, then Da Yueshi's appearance will probably fluctuate between 70 and 80 points.

It's a pretty high value.

However, Kinoshita Mai's appearance is 90+...

What's more, Mai Kinoshita is still in the state of makeup. The set of makeup on her face that Kiryu carefully designed for her made Kinoshita Mai's appearance increase by several points, approaching the perfect score of 100 points.

Every now and then they were stunned by the appearance of this little beauty who suddenly appeared.

Kinoshita Mai's beauty... This is not the most shocking thing for Otsuki.

What impressed Otsuki the most was Mai Kinoshita's makeup... To be precise, it was the makeup on her face.

Dayue really has a pair of sharp eyes that are good at seeing the price of items, which are tempered by browsing all kinds of luxury goods.

She could see at a glance: all the cosmetics on Kinoshita Mai's face, be it lip gloss or light powder;

Especially for Kinoshita Mai's lip gloss, Otsuki has never seen such a beautiful and natural "sasa color red".

"Sasairo red" with such a beautiful color... how much does it cost?

Beside Tachibana... When did there become such a symbolic woman?

"Can you still walk?"

At this time, Qingdeng's voice woke up Da Yueshi from his sluggish state.

"If you can still walk, go to the hospital quickly. Your injuries look quite serious."

"Then, let's take my leave."

After finishing speaking, Qing Deng turned around neatly, making a gesture to leave.

"Ah, wait a minute!" Chang Ci hastily called Qing Deng to stop, "Mr. Ju, you saved us tonight, such a great kindness, you must pay it back, please allow us..."

"No need." Qing Dengtou calmly said, "I didn't come to help you to get your favor back."

"It's okay to think that our meeting tonight is just a chance encounter."

"If there is a destiny in the future, let's meet again."

After saying these words, Qingdeng didn't stop any longer, and led Kinoshita Mai to leave.

In front of Da Yueshi and the others, there was a tall, free and easy figure from the back.

I don't know how much time has passed... half a minute? 1 minute? The muddy consciousness made Da Yueshi's sense of time confused.

All she knew was that when she came to her senses, the figures of Qingdeng and Kinoshita Mai had disappeared from her field of vision.

From the time Shimizu Eiichi and the others left until now, Qingdeng didn't even look at her the whole time...

Da Yueshi bit her lower lip tightly.

The eyes and expression are complicated and unspeakable.

...

...

Two Kingdoms Bridge——

"Finally, I can watch the fireworks with peace of mind..."

Qingdeng sighed to Kinoshita Mai in a half-joking tone.

After saving Da Yueshi and the others, Qingdeng and Kinoshita Mai were finally able to continue enjoying tonight's lively summer festival.

The two rushed to Liangliangqiao according to the original plan, looking for a good location to watch the fireworks.

It was quite lucky-even though they were late, they were able to find a vacant seat that could accommodate the two of them standing on the left side of the Liangliang Bridge adjacent to the bridge railing.

There are still about 5 minutes before the fireworks are set off... On the bridge, there is an atmosphere of tension and anticipation.

"So it turns out that the young woman just now is Qingdeng your good friend..." Kinoshita Wu said softly.

Just now, Qingdeng confessed generously to Kinoshita Wu about the young woman they had just rescued... that is, Da Yueshi, his childhood sweetheart who had not seen each other for a long time because he married Nara far away.

"Well, yes." Qing Deng wrote lightly, "I was able to meet her twice tonight... I was really surprised."

"..." Kinoshita Wu raised her head, staring at Qing Deng's calm face.

Seeing Qingdeng's appearance of not caring about Otsuki, Kinoshita Mai's beautiful eyes silently revealed a touch of joy and gratitude.

At this time, the bridge deck of Nihonbashi was crowded with spectators looking for a good place to watch the fireworks.

Everyone, you squeeze me, I squeeze you, you push me, I push you...

"Oh! Don't squeeze! Don't squeeze!"

"What's the crowd? Don't you see anyone here?"

"Oops! There's no more space here! Don't squeeze in here anymore!"

...

Kinoshita Wu was small and light. In such a crowd density, she was like a catkin floating in a storm.

Qingdeng has seen the "undercurrent" coming from behind hit Kinoshita Wu several times, knocking Kinoshita Wu into a stagger.

"... Ah Wu, come here."

Qingdeng raised his hand and grasped Kinoshita Wu's left wrist, pulled him in front of him, and then supported the bridge railing in front with both hands, letting Kinoshita Wu hide between his arms and in his arms .

Using her own body as a barrier, she built a safe space for Mai Kinoshita where she would never be bumped into again.

But in this way, she and Qingdeng inevitably had intimate physical contact.

Qingdeng only needs to lower his head to bury the tip of his nose into Kinoshita Mai's hair.

Kinoshita Wu only needs to lean back a little, and then she can rest her small head on Qingdeng's strong chest muscles.

"!" The gorgeous red glow instantly stained Kinoshita Mai's cheeks.

Although Kinoshita Wu's back was facing him, Qingdeng couldn't see Kinoshita Wu's expression at this time, but he could faintly see a thin stream of "steam" floating from the top of Kinoshita Wu's head and forehead.

It's embarrassing to say... Kinoshita Mai is not the only one who is shy—the person who created the current ambiguous situation is also tensed up from shame.

Qingdeng pulled Kinoshita Wu to his body purely because he was worried that Kinoshita Wu would be knocked down by the crowd... He didn't think so much at all.

It wasn't until he pulled Kinoshita Wu into his arms that Qing Deng belatedly realized how daring and intimate his actions were.

Kinoshita Mai's body fragrance is delicious, and it continuously drills into his nostrils. Looking down from his current angle, he can still see the eye-catching spectacle of the yukata lapel being held up by two huge things... Qingdeng couldn't help feeling distracted.

In order to hide his embarrassment, Qingdeng cleared his throat, and pretended to ask Kinoshita Mai:

"A Wu, is the space too narrow? Do you want me to spread my arms wider?"

"No..." Kinoshita Mai, who was staring at her own small toes, shook her head slightly, while repeatedly pinching the small hands that overlapped in front of her body, and twisted, "I think it's just right..."

The voice has not yet fallen——

Woo--!

Fireworks rise.

Under the expectant gaze of everyone, the first firework finally rose into the sky.

The scattered red fireworks illuminated the entire night sky.

The crowd exclaimed.

At this moment, Qingdeng and Kinoxia Wu didn't care about their ambiguous behavior, they quickly raised their heads, and held their breath, admiring the fireworks rising into the sky one after another and bursting.

This is the first time that Qingdeng has watched the fireworks of this era since he crossed over.

Is it because the fireworks production process in this era is different from the modern one? Or is it because there is a beautiful woman by your side? Qingdeng only felt that this grand fireworks display had a special flavor.

"Jade House~~!"

"Key House~~!"

...

Although Tamaya was kicked out of Edo due to accidental fire decades ago, the custom of shouting "Tamaya" and "Kenya" in the fireworks festival has been handed down.

As the flame flickered, colorful colors stained Kinoshita Mai's cheeks, illuminating Kinoshita Mai's eyes that were shining with agility.

Maybe she was infected by the atmosphere around her. This shy girl who couldn't yell in the crowd unless she was wearing something that could cover her face, after hesitating for a moment, followed the example of the people around her. To move, bring your hands to your lips.

"Yu~House~!"

After shouting like this, Kinoshita Mai was taken aback for a moment, and then she laughed as if she was amused by her "bold move".

At some point, Qingdeng's attention has shifted from the fireworks in the night sky to Kinoshita Mai in his arms.

The corners of the mouth curled up slightly unconsciously.

The arms propped on the bridge railing unconsciously tightened slightly, making Kinoshita Mai in his arms get closer to him.

Seeing Kinoshita Wu's selfless smile intoxicated by the fiery trees and silver flowers, Qingdeng felt that all the hard work tonight had disappeared.

...

...

When the moon is high in the night sky—

"I'm so happy tonight..."

Kinoshita Mai, who was walking side by side with Qingdeng on a street with no other passers-by, showed a satisfied smile.

Tonight's fireworks display can be described as a perfect ending, both for the conference itself and for Qing and Wu.

The two enjoyed the hustle and bustle of the celebration to the fullest, and watched the gorgeous fireworks show completely...without any regrets.

Qingdeng, who also had a good time tonight, nodded in agreement with Kinoshita Mai's sentiment.

However, besides being happy, Qingdeng also felt a little sad—thinking that the night spent with Mai Kinoshita was over, he felt inexplicably lonely in his heart.

On the way home together, Qingdeng wanted to soothe the loneliness in his heart as much as possible, and tried his best to come up with various topics to chat with Mai Kinoshita, and slowed down specially.

But no matter how slow he slows down, he will eventually face the moment of parting ways with Mai Kinoshita.

"Ah... here it is..." Qingdeng stared straight ahead at the intersection not far ahead with slightly dazed eyes.

At this intersection, he and Kinoshita Mai will not go the same way...

Qingdeng: "..."

Kinoshita Mai: "..."

As if it was agreed in advance, Qingdeng and Kinoshita Wu both fell silent after seeing the intersection ahead where they had to part ways.

When they reached the very center of the intersection, the two stopped.

"Qingdeng, thank you, I had a great time tonight."

"To each other." Qingdeng pretended to smile indifferently, "I also had a good time tonight, if there is a chance later, let's come out and play together again."

"Um……"

"Then... I'll go first."

"Um……"

It's obviously not a farewell to life and death, but there is a strange sentimental atmosphere lingering between the two of them...

Qingdeng, who was not very good at dealing with this kind of atmosphere, turned his body hastily after saying goodbye to Kinoshita Mai, preparing to leave.

However, at this moment——

"Qing, Qingdeng!"

"Huh?" Qingdeng turned around and faced Kinoshita Mai who suddenly called him to stop him.

"..." Kinoshita Mai, who folded her hands in front of her body and lowered her head, took small steps and stood in front of Qingdeng again.

"A Wu, what's wrong?"

"I...I still have something to say to you..."

"talk?"

"..."

Kinoshita Mai raised her hands, overlapped and pressed her chest, and took a long, deep breath with a "ha".

Then she stretched out the two catkins together, held Qingdeng's right wrist, lifted Qingdeng's right hand to her round left shoulder, then poked her face out like a cat, and gently touched it with her delicate left cheek. Rubbing Qingdeng's right palm.

The smooth and tender touch, like rubbing high-grade silk, continuously spread into Qingdeng's big palm.

"I, I'm done..."

The beauty in front of her showed a green smile.

Kinoshita Mai slowly let go of Qingdeng's hand, letting Qingdeng's hand separate from her pretty face that was so red that it was about to bleed.

Without waiting for Qingdeng to respond, Kinoshita Wu stepped back a few steps with her head buried, and after distanced herself from Qingdeng, she raised her hand high and waved goodbye to Qingdeng.

Then, she stepped forward alone.

The flat-bottomed wooden clogs repeatedly collided with the stone brick floor, making a crisp sound of "slapping".

After walking about 10 meters, she turned around.

Seeing that Qingdeng was still there, she smiled shyly, raised her right arm again in the distance, and waved vigorously to Qingdeng.

Perhaps to let Qingdeng see her figure more clearly, she specially stood on tiptoe of her lovely and tender toes this time.

After waving to Qingdeng twice in a row, Kinoshita Mai finally turned her delicate body back to the front as if she still hadn't finished, and walked away quickly...

...

...

The red figure disappeared into the night.

Qingdeng, who had been standing there in a daze, finally regained control of his body until a long while passed.

He lowered his head and glanced at the right palm that Mai Kinoshita just rubbed with his face.

"..." He raised his right hand silently, and pressed the back of his right hand to his cheek.

Feeling the heat comparable to the flame, it only hurts the back of his right hand.
