I formed the strongest swordsman group

Qingdeng raised his head reflexively, and lowered his head reflexively the next moment he saw the faces of Sanazi and the chief executive.

——Why are Okita-san and Sanako-san here? !

Qingdeng's heart and mind set off shocking waves.

—Did they pass by here by chance?

——If so, it would be too coincidental...!

Although Qingdeng's brain was in a semi-shutdown state due to the extreme shock at this time, his body's reactions and movements were still sharp.

He hastily raised his right hand, pressed the bamboo hat on his head, and lowered the edge of the hat.

The eyes that were hidden by Li Yan flashed complicated pupils.

If it was an ordinary time, if I ran into Sanako and the chief executive outdoors, Qingdeng would have greeted him warmly.

But now...Qingdeng doesn't want to reunite with them so soon.

Qingdeng used the bamboo hat as a cover, secretly raised his eyes, and quietly looked at the faces of Sanazi and the chief executive through the gaps in the bamboo strips.

Looking at these two familiar faces, a peaceful smile welled up on Qing Deng's cheeks.

Although only half a month has passed since the fire at the prison house in Denmacho, Qingdeng somehow feels like he has been away from the chief executive and others for a long time.

Why doesn't Qingdeng want to meet with Zanako, the chief executive, Kinoshita Mai, Elodie, and all his relatives and friends?

The reason why he had been pretending to be missing before was mainly to hide his whereabouts, so as to confuse the gangsters who were chasing him everywhere, namely Konosuke Kitahara and others.

Currently, Konosuke Kitahara and others have been captured.

However... one wave just leveled off, and another wave rose again.

As soon as Qingdeng catches the real culprit who set fire to Xiaoden Macho's prison house and wiped out Akabane's family to murder him, he encounters a bigger and more serious case...

At present, it is basically certain that the reason why Kitahara Konosuke and others have such deep hatred for Qingdeng is all because his father Takayuki Tachibana has done some terrible things.

And his father, Tachibana Takayuki, actually has a complex relationship with the "strange medicine" that killed the Kanazawa brothers and sisters...

Pull out the radish to bring out the puree.

Just don't check it, it will be frightening if you check it.

There are so many forces hidden behind this little trick drug...

The Shimizu Clan, whose forces spread throughout Kanto and dominate the underground society of Edo...

Shenlong can't see the head and tail, and is deeply jealous of the law-killing party like Boss Kiryu...

Whether it is the Qingshui clan with all-hands and eyes, or the mysterious Fazhu Party, they are not easy to provoke.

As long as Qingdeng continues to thoroughly investigate the fraudulent drugs, then sooner or later he will have indirect or even direct conflicts with the Qingshui clan and the Fazhu Party.

Therefore, Qingdeng didn't want to get rid of his "missing" status so quickly - he was afraid that he would hurt his relatives and friends in the process of confronting the Qingshui clan and the Fazhu Party.

He planned to wait until the dust settled before returning to the testing hall, which was no different from his home long ago, and returning to everyone's side.

At this thought, Qingdeng couldn't help but look serious, and silently lowered the bamboo hat on top of his head a little lower.

——Ms. Sanako and Ms. Okita must not recognize me!

As soon as the thoughts fell, Qingdeng moved his eyes and scanned his surroundings.

Behind is the double sister.

At the foot are stone steps that can only be passed by two adults side by side.

On the left and right sides are dense forests.

Whether it is stepping into the woods next to it, or turning its head and walking back, it is too unnatural, but it will be very conspicuous...

Therefore, Qingdeng quickly decided on the most suitable decision for the current situation - keep going! Pretend not to know Sanako and the chief executive, and just pass them by!

The bamboo hat with a very low brim almost completely covered his entire face.

Because she was wearing a thick cotton coat, she did not show her figure.

The saber at his waist was also replaced with a new one that the chief executive and others had never seen before.

Just pay more attention and remember not to raise your head and show your face, then it is impossible for Sanako and the chief executive to recognize him!

Thinking of this, Qingdeng was determined.

At this time, the footsteps of Sanazi and the chief executive were already approaching Qingdeng's head.

They are only 9 steps away from Qingdeng.

Qing Deng took a deep breath to calm down.

He didn't dare to raise his head anymore, so he could only keep his head down and listen to the sound to identify his position.

Even during the decisive battle with the Koi-gumi, even when he was almost buried in the flames of the Kodenma-machi prison, he never experienced a sense of tension, wrapping around Qingdeng's body like vines.

As if a loudspeaker had been installed, in Qingdeng's perception, the footsteps of Sanako and the chief executive became surprisingly loud.

It was like beating a gong, hitting Qingdeng's eardrum one after another.

Graceful footsteps, energetic footsteps...Qingdeng heard these two completely different footsteps with distinct personalities very clearly, getting closer and louder...

eight steps...

seven steps...

six steps...

Nose smells fresh body fragrance.

five steps...

four steps...

three steps...

The exposed skin felt the scorching body temperature emanating from Sanako and the chief executive.

As early as just now, Sanako and the Chief Secretary had noticed a samurai wearing a bamboo hat and two petite and cute girls, and came across them on a narrow road.

They didn't pay much attention to it, silently kept to the right, and gave way to the left road for the other party to pass.

Just when the two sides were about to pass each other, Sanazi and the chief executive glanced at the warrior with a bamboo hat...Qingdeng.

They probably never expected to run into Qingdeng in this kind of place, so they just regarded the warrior in the bamboo hat in front of them as an ordinary passerby.

He only glanced at Qingdeng, then looked away.

In this way, Qingdeng crossed paths with the two daughters without any risk...

Hearing the two footsteps thrown behind him, Qingdeng let out a silent breath.

The crisis is resolved.

However, Qingdeng didn't feel lucky about it - he just felt sorry.

Wave after wave of apology welled up in Qingdeng's heart and cheeks.

——Miss Sanako, Miss Okita...Sorry...I can't meet you yet...

With a heavy expression, Qingdeng lowered the bamboo hat on his head a little lower...

"Senior, what's wrong with you?"

Yae behind him suddenly asked.

"Is it my illusion? I always think you are weird."

Although Yae always has a carefree appearance on weekdays, she is actually a rough and fine person.

She keenly noticed all kinds of unnatural things about Qing Deng.

Qingdeng smiled wryly.

Just as he was about to explain—

Crack clack clack clack clack!

Suddenly, two bursts of hurried running sounds came from behind Qingdeng!

This time it was really a conditioned reflex—Qingdeng, who has been fighting against all kinds of opponents for many years, heard the sound of these two sprints, and his fighting instinct was activated the next moment!

He turned back at lightning speed, and stretched out his hand to the Echizen master Hitachi Shou Kanshige at his left waist.

However……

Qing Deng turned around and held the knife in an instant, and then froze for an instant.

His right hand, which was holding the handle of the saber, suddenly became stiff, and he could not move a single finger.

No.

It should be said that his whole body was stiff...

I saw two high ponytails, one long and one short, flying high in front of his eyes...

...

In order to avoid being recognized, Qingdeng kept his head down, his eyes locked on the steps in front of his toes.

For this reason, what he didn't know was that at the moment when he crossed the sleeves of the second woman and passed by, Sanako and the chief executive seemed to sense something, and their expressions were startled.

Immediately afterwards, they both stopped, turned their heads, stared at Qing Deng's back, thoughtfully...

Except for them themselves, maybe there will be no other people in this world who can know what they are thinking at this moment.

The only thing that is certain is that they let their feet sticking to the stone steps off the ground almost at the same time.

It's easy once you take the first step.

The fragrant wind swirls.

Their bodies and minds run after Qingdeng together!

...

what happened?

Why are Miss Sanako and Miss Okita back?

Am I recognized?

A large number of questions filled Qingdeng's brain.

It's too late to think - Sanako and the chief executive are already approaching him!

Qingdeng subconsciously wants to reach out his hand to fend off Sanako and the chief executive.

However, looking at the faces of Sanazi and the chief executive who were close at hand, Qing Deng's hand movements stopped immediately.

It was this fleeting hesitation that gave Sanako and the chief executive an opportunity to take advantage of.

Obviously there was no prior agreement, but the two daughters played a wonderful cooperation.

The director clamped Qingdeng's waist to prevent Qingdeng from escaping.

Zuo Nazi pulled off Qingdeng's bamboo hat with all his strength.

The bamboo hat flew into the distance.

The cold wind blew on Qingdeng's face.

Along with blowing on Qingdeng's face, there was also Sanako's warm breath.

"ah……"

Qingdeng couldn't help blurting out a sound.

Yae stared in astonishment at Sanako and the chief executive who suddenly "run away", and said angrily:

"Hey! Who are you guys..."

Before Yae could finish his words, Sae who was beside him covered his mouth.

"Fool."

Yarn lowered her voice and whispered.

"Can't you see it?"

"Huh? Can't you see anything?"

"Tsk...you are such an idiot...come with me, let's avoid it for a while."

Shazhong led Yae, who was confused, and quickly left the scene.

Before leaving, Sazhong did not forget to cast a meaningful look at Qingdeng.

Shazhong's line of sight hides the meaning of "Mr. Tachibana, please do your best"...

However, what she did was purely "to wink at the blind"—at this time, Qingdeng had no time to care about the eyes of the second sister.

With the departure of the double sisters, only one man and two women are left on the long and narrow stone stairs...

Sanako and the chief executive were so close that Qingdeng could touch their noses with just a probe.

To be honest, Qingdeng's mind is completely blank now.

The bamboo hat was lifted, and the whole face was exposed in front of the eyes of Sanazi and the chief executive. It was no longer possible to hide his whereabouts from them...

"Okita-kun, Miss Sanako..."

Qingdeng opened his mouth mechanically.

Not that he was going to say something, but that he felt he had to say something now.

Sanako and the chief executive's moist eyes flashed with a certain kind of will.

They didn't speak, nor did they show any expressions, they just watched Qingdeng quietly.

Strange to say, the second daughter at this moment gives people an inexplicable sense of weakness.

It looks like a puppet whose silk thread has been pulled out and will fall apart when touched.

The naked and sincere emotion pierced towards Qingdeng.

Qingdeng couldn't take his gaze away from the eyes of the two daughters—the eyes of Sanako and the chief executive possessed such magical power.

"Well, Okita-kun, Sanako-san..."

Qingdeng called the second daughter's name again, but still couldn't say any more words.

My mind was still empty, and I couldn't think of what to say next.

The unexpected reunion... Will the chief executive be crying?

Sanako has such a strong temper, will she beat me up?

"... Mr. Tangerine."

Just when Qingdeng's thoughts were in a mess, he suddenly heard Zanazi calling.

The next thing happened between the ups and downs of the rabbit.

"Finally...found you..."

A gust of fragrant wind rushed towards Qingdeng.

Zuo Nazi fell on Qingdeng's body.

She bent down, and pressed her smooth forehead against Qingdeng's left collarbone.

The raving voice was muffled in Qingdeng's arms.

In the next breath, the chief executive followed closely behind.

The chief didn't even say a word, he threw himself on Qingdeng's body and hugged Qingdeng's waist, his tightly clasped hands conveyed a lot of emotion.

"Great...you are safe..."

No whimpering.

Not to mention beating Qingdeng violently.

Only her tightly pursed lips.

There are only palpable surprises.

There was only a sense of relief.

Just like that, Qingdeng was frozen by the warmth from Sona and the chief executive.

Looking at the second daughter who was close to him, an indescribable emotion gushed out from the deepest part of Qingdeng's heart.

"Sorry...for making you worry..."

After finishing speaking, Qing Deng slowly raised his hands.

His left hand wrapped around Sanako's shoulder.

He hugged the chief's back with his right hand.

The wind carrying snowflakes bathed the three of them in it.

...

...

How long did this three-person hug last?

1 minute?

5 minutes?

10 minutes?

have no idea.

Qingdeng's sense of time is already confused.

After an unknown amount of time passed, a man and two women slowly let go of each other.

"Okita-kun, Miss Sanako, how did you recognize me?"

As Qingdeng asked, he stretched out his hands, and gently smoothed the hair on the forehead of the second daughter who had become a little messy due to leaning on Qingdeng's body just now.

"Well... this..."

The boss smiled, put his hand behind his head, and played with the braided hair.

"It's just... just a feeling."

"Feel?"

Qingdeng raised his eyebrows.

The chief executive continued:

"When I passed you shoulder to shoulder, I felt a strong sense of familiarity from your body... A voice in my heart said to me: This person is Mr. Ju—that's all."

"I... I also rely on feeling."

Sanako said lightly.

"I also felt a strong sense of familiarity from you when I passed you shoulder to shoulder."

Hearing this, Qingdeng couldn't help showing a dumbfounding expression.

"It turned out to be like this..."

It turned out that I was planted on the mysterious "feeling"... This really made Qingdeng feel complicated.

At this time, the chief executive jumped up and down like a rabbit because of his uncontrollable excitement.

"Mr. Orange, you..."

The chief executive's voice had just started, when Qingdeng made a "wait a minute" gesture to her.

"Okita-kun, Miss Sanako, I know you must have a lot of questions to ask me now."

"But this is not a good place to talk."

"And I have work to do right now."

"Go to 2-chome in Barrel Town, find a hotel called 'Echizen House', and wait for me there."

"When I'm done with what I'm doing, I'll go there and find you."

"At that time, I will truthfully tell you everything I can say."

Sanako and the chief executive looked at each other - they both found hesitation in each other's eyes.

But after all, they are not ignorant children who like to make trouble for no reason.

Then, they nodded to Qingdeng in no particular order.
