Kinoshita Mai!【7100】

"I am Isamu's eldest brother Miyagawa Otogoro! Next, I will perform our Tama dance for everyone! Please enjoy it!"

Miyagawa Otogoro is truly Isamu Kondo's eldest brother. The two brothers' bold and enthusiastic temperaments are really carved from the same mold.

Miyagawa Otogoro, who had just finished performing "Stuffing 5 Steamed Buns in the Mouth", then began to perform the local dance of their hometown Tama.

Many of the guests attending the banquet today are fellow Tama friends of Kondo and Hijikata.

So when Miyagawa Otogoro was about to dance the Tama dance, many Kondo and Hijikata fellow Tama people...such as Hijikata's brother-in-law, Sato Hikoro, spontaneously stood up and joined the dance.

The banquet hall suddenly turned into a dance hall.

It has to be said that in this kind of "celebration"-themed banquet, it is not a bad thing to have a "social cow" like Miyagawa Otonoro who is good at creating atmosphere.

Thanks to Miyagawa Otogoro and the Tama fellows who enthusiastically danced with him, the excitement of the banquet reached a new level.

The guests stood up and gave up their seats one after another, pushing their seats to the four corners of the room to give up the central position of the banquet hall, leaving enough room for Miyagawa Otongoro and others to dance.

As the central position of the banquet hall was given up, the density of seats suddenly increased. The empty seats left by Kiryu, Goro Komaki and others were squeezed. Aoto, Mai Kinoshita, Sanako, Souji and the others

The four of us had to sit together.

The current seating arrangements at the "table" for Aoto and the others... with Aoto as the center and clockwise as the direction, they are: Aoto, Souji, Sanako, and Mai Kinoshita.

Why did the "parents" of the three girls suddenly leave at the same time? Was it a coincidence? Or was it intentional?

If it's the former, it would be a bit too coincidental...

But if it's the latter, it feels unlikely.

The three parties had never had any communication before the wedding banquet.

Furumaki and his wife, Chiba Jutaro and Okita Hikaru and his wife are completely unknown to each other.

They couldn't have agreed in advance to leave at the same time, right?

No matter what the answer to this question is... Qingdeng can't care about it for the time being.

At this moment, Qingdeng, whose neck felt a little tight, glanced at the pretty faces of the three beauties with their own charms around him with a tentative gaze.

At the same time, Kinoshita Mai, who had her legs tightly together and her shoulders tightened, lowered her gaze and stared nervously at the tatami in front of her knees. From time to time she raised her shrinking gaze to secretly look at the person who was close to her at the moment.

Qingden and others... The moment her eyes touched Sanako, she would always move away immediately as if being scalded by boiling water.

Sanako still maintains a cool and calm demeanor...but the frequency of drinking tea from the tea cup beside her legs has obviously increased a lot.

There was only one person who didn't show any abnormality - that was the now drunken Director-General.

The Souji, who would be greedy if he didn't drink alcohol, now looked like he was half-drunk and half-awake with his eyes half-closed, his eyes blurred, his face flushed.

Normally, Qingteng would have snatched away the wine glass from the chief executive and prevented her from drinking any more.

However, because today is a rare day of celebration and great joy, Qingteng decided to turn a blind eye today and let the General Secretary have a rare indulgence.

Qingdeng: "..."

Kinoshita Mai: "..."

Sanako: "..."

Souji: "Huh? Tachibana-kun, why do you smell so good?"

Qingdeng: "Because what you smell is Jinpingtang."

Qingto, Kinoshita Mai and Sanako all remained silent... Qingto didn't know what to talk about now. He didn't know whether these two women were like this.

The atmosphere between them felt awkward for a moment.

Fortunately, the drunken Souji occasionally said some nonsensical nonsense that had a certain lively effect on the atmosphere, and did not make the atmosphere around them completely stiff.

In this silence, the first person to break the silence was the aloof and taciturn Sanako.

"Tachibana-kun, Carrot has been acting a little weird lately."

"radish?"

"Yeah. It used to have endless energy every day. It would walk around the yard and the sword hall as soon as it finished eating. But recently it has been very lack of energy. Except for eating, it is still very active.

They all lie down in the corner of the yard in a daze or sleep."

"Is it sick?"

Qingdeng still liked his pet cow, which was both cute and cute but also very humane.

Therefore, after hearing that Luo Bao had been ill recently, I couldn't help but make a nervous sound.

Sanako shook his head.

"I asked the veterinarian to diagnose and treat Luobo. The veterinarian said that Luobo is in very good health... The diagnosis given by the veterinarian is that you haven't seen Luobo for too long recently. Luobo misses you very much, so he is a little depressed."

"Carrot miss me very much?"

After Qingdeng heard this, he was startled for a moment, and then he burst into laughter.

"That's right...I haven't seen him for a long time recently..."

Important events these days are coming one after another, people are queuing up, and it’s dizzying to see.

After the "Red and White Battle" with Genbukan, there was a fireworks display with four girls in a row.

After the lively fireworks display, we were busy preparing to go to the city to pay homage to Tokugawa Iemo and Tenjoin.

After meeting these two bosses, he went to the Tsukinomiya Shrine under a secret order from Tokugawa Iemo and was recruited into the new imperial court of "a new secret force in the light and Tokugawa Iemo's private armed force in the dark".

Fan.

After finishing all this mess, I started working on Isamu Kondo’s wedding...

Looking back and thinking about it carefully, I realized that it had indeed been a long time since Qingto visited the Little Chiba Sword Hall to visit Radish.

"I happen to be free tomorrow," Qingdeng said, "I'll go take a look at it tomorrow morning."

Sanako nodded.

"Carrot seems to be a little too dependent on you... I personally feel that this is not a good thing."

"Now that you are on vacation, you can still visit it frequently and play with it."

"After 2 months, you will officially be transferred to the Huo Fu Thief Reform. When you need to focus more time and energy on your official duties and have no time to worry about other chores... I really don't know how depressed Carrot will be."

Facing Sanako's neither salty nor bland sentiments, Qingto smiled noncommittally.

Qingdeng was moved to the right of Huofu Bandit Kaiyuan, and his official start date was November 1st... This matter is no longer a secret.

The shogunate has really given Ayoto a lot of benefits this time.

In order to reward Aoshinobu, and also to allow Aoshinobo to have enough time to recuperate physically and mentally, the shogunate granted Aoshinobo a recuperation holiday that lasted until November.

In other words, Qingteng can spend another two months of leisurely vacation.

Paying homage to thieves and reforming, and following the prescribed rules - in terms of busyness alone, the latter is actually busier.

After all, the manpower of the latter is overwhelmingly insufficient. The combined strength of the "three chapters" of the two offices in the south and north does not exceed 40 people in total.

There are a total of 8 squads in the Huofu Thieves Kai, and each squad has dozens of people.

When you are short of manpower, you can also ask for help from the first-hand bow team and the first-hand iron cannon team.

And only those major cases and key criminals that the law cannot handle.

Therefore, in general, the "Three Times" is more leisurely than the "Three Times"... but the risk and death rate are much higher than the "Three Times".

However, no matter how you say it, when Qingdeng officially joins the Huofu Thief Group in 2 months, he will definitely not be able to have a lot of time to do what he wants to do every day like now.

Just as Ayoto and Sanako were having an ordinary chat about the topic of radish——

"..." Kinoshita Wu, whose mouth corners were drooping, raised his eyes and glanced at Sanako quietly. Then, his eyes fell on Qingden, and he bit his lower lip gently, his eyes

It’s so complicated that it’s hard to describe…

"I just helped Qingdeng raise a cow..."

After mumbling in a volume that only she could hear clearly, she felt thirsty, picked up the teacup beside her knees with both hands, and drank it all in one gulp.

Mai Kinoshita drank the whole cup in one gulp, but because she drank too quickly, she accidentally choked the tea into her trachea.

"Ahem! Ahem! Ahem!"

Kinoshita Mai's rapid coughing interrupted the conversation between Qingto and Sanako.

Qingto, whose attention was attracted by Kinoshita Mai's rapid coughing, quickly looked over.

"A Wu, what's wrong with you?"

"No... cough cough! It's okay... I just drank tea too quickly... cough cough! I just choked... cough cough cough!"

After saying that, Kinoshita Mai took out the pocket paper she carried with her from the lapel of her kimono.

Just when she was about to put the pregnancy paper to her lips and wipe away the remaining tea and saliva on her lips, she suddenly seemed to remember something, squinted her eyes, and glanced at Qingdeng quietly.

Immediately afterwards, she straightened her waist slightly, passed the pregnancy paper to her lips, wiped her lips, folded and put away the used pregnancy paper, and a series of actions such as putting it down very gently, very slowly, very slowly.

grace.
