"Ji Jun, it's really thanks to you that I was able to successfully get Bai Ju back tonight."

"I owe you a favor."

"So, it's my turn to help you this time! I'll help you escape from Yoshiwara!"

…

…

Qingteng originally thought that Gua Shengxiu, who had been struggling in Yoshihara for decades, would be able to come up with some clever plan to help him escape from Yoshiwara.

For example, she knew that there was an unknown secret passage in Yoshihara that connected to the outside world.

Unexpectedly, the assistance plan she provided was extremely simple - she took out a fake beard and a box of "black oil" that can be applied to the skin to turn the entire skin into a wheat color.

"Ji Jun, you put on this fake beard, then use this jar of 'black oil' to darken your skin, do a simple make-up, and then follow me. You can say whatever you want, and leave everything to me."

There is no need to elaborate on what happened next.

Gua Shengxiu led Qingnog, who had put on simple makeup, straight to the gate of Yoshiwara. After briefly saying a few words to the gatekeeper Shinzaburo, he arrived outside Yoshiwara without any accident...

…

The simplicity and calmness of the process made Qingdeng speechless...

At this time, the two of them happened to walk to the famous landmark of Yoshiwara: Mitai Liu.

With a mentality that was completely different from that of ordinary prostitutes, Qingto turned his head back to the brightly lit Yoshihara with a complicated expression.

——That’s it?

——You left Yoshiwara so easily?

——Why did I think so seriously about escaping just now?

Gua Shengxiu watched Qingdeng's expression with great interest.

After watching it to her full satisfaction, she slowly said:

"My face only played a minor role. The main role was the discord between the Executive Office and the Shirobei Club."

"When I found out that the officers of the execution office forced people from the Shirobei Club to help them guard the gate, I knew I had an opportunity."

"The officials at the execution office have always discriminated against the Shirobei Club."

"Therefore, every time the officers from the execution office came to the Shirobei Club to catch coolies, the people who were caught as coolies were perfunctory or even deliberately sabotaged."

"Nobuzaburo...ah, that's the gatekeeper we just met, and he is the 'leader' among them. I have never seen him take it seriously when helping the shrine."

"The moment I saw Shinzaburo's face, I was convinced on the spot: it was safe to help you leave Yoshiwara."

As Gua Shengxiu finished speaking, Qingdeng was secretly speechless.

"Did you take advantage of the discord between the Executive Office and the Shirobei Club..."

As far as the process is concerned, Guashengxiu's plan still involves certain risks.

If when passing the customs, an official from the execution office had noticed the movements of Qingteng and others in advance, then Qingteng and Gua Shengxiu would definitely not be able to walk on Shijian Road so leisurely.

[Shikenmichi: The avenue leading to Yoshiwara on Nippon Embankment]

But no matter what, judging from the results, Qingdeng has successfully returned to a world without "city walls" and "moats" - and this is enough.

After a while, the two of them got off the Japanese embankment.

The evening breeze gently lifted Gua Sheng's beautiful sideburns and ponytail.

She held down the flying silver threads with her fingers and smiled so tenderly.

"Tangerine-kun, I will send you here."

This is the second time Guashengxiu said goodbye to Qingdeng tonight.

Qingdeng lowered his head following the sound and looked straight into Gua Shengxiu's eyes.

At first glance, it looked like a very ordinary smile, but somehow, Qingden unknowingly relaxed the lines on his face.

Looking at this infectious smile, the reluctance that he had finally suppressed came to Qingdeng's heart again.

It is really strange to say that it has only been less than two hours since I met Gua Shengxiu, but Qingdeng has already become full of intimacy with this kind old lady.

"Grandma Guasheng, I'm really under your care tonight."

Qingdeng bowed to the old man in front of him sincerely and thanked him.

"In other words, compared to what you have done for me, what I have done is not worth mentioning at all."

"Aren't you in a hurry to go to the 'battlefield'? Then go quickly."

After saying that, Gua Shengxiu stood on tiptoes and hugged Qingdeng again.

"Mr. Ju, I wish you success."

"Be sure to come back safely."

"Don't forget what you promised me."

Gua Shengxiu changed into a half-joking tone.

"When you have free time, remember to come and visit me, an old woman."

Different from the last time, Gua Shengxiu's hug this time was very warm... so warm that Qingden felt his chest feel warm.

"Well, mother-in-law, I'm leaving!"

Qingdeng hugged Gu Shengxiu with his backhand.

The brilliance of fire reflected in his eyes.

His eyes are like lightning, his eyes are like arrows.

…

…

Back to Yoshiwara——

Bai Ling from Akaneya, the initiator of the situation that caused "Qingnobo to almost be unable to leave Yoshiwara" due to some strange combination of circumstances, is currently hiding in an inconspicuous alley in Yoshiwara, looking at a slender road outside with fiery eyes.

, tall and straight figure.

"Oh...Shimano-kun..."

She murmured forgetfully.

"I finally see you again..."

The person outside the alley was none other than Shimano, who Bai Ling thought about all day and night. In order to see him again, he even deliberately stole things and called the police falsely.

Perhaps it was Bai Ling's persistence and sincerity that moved God.

Or maybe it's simply because Bai Ling is very lucky.

All in all, her plan to "falsely report that Tachibana Aoden was in Yoshiwara and force Shimano, an official of the Enforcement Station, to visit Yoshiwara again" was successful!

After learning that Shimano had come to Yoshiwara, Bai Ling immediately ran out of Akane's house regardless.

In a short time, she found Shimano at a street intersection in Yoshiwara, who was setting up a checkpoint with other colleagues to check passers-by.

Bai Ling, who was suffering from lovesickness, had already made up his mind: he would bet his love for Shimano and his future on tonight!

"Shimano-kun, please go down and take a rest."

"Well, okay."

At this time, there was a conversation outside the alley that made Bai Ling tremble several times.

——Here it comes!

Bai Ling felt his heart beating suddenly faster, as if his whole heart was about to jump out of his throat.

"Hahaha……"

She clutched her chest and took several deep breaths.

After she felt her emotions calm down a little, she held her head high and walked out of the alley, which was empty except for the darkness and smell...

…

"That! That!"

Shimano, who was standing on a deserted street corner drinking water and resting, was startled by a high-pitched female voice that suddenly sounded from behind, and his shoulders shook twice.

He quickly turned around - standing behind him was a beautiful girl dressed as a wandering girl.

"Ah, um...hug, sorry...my voice was too loud..."

Because he was too nervous, he failed to control his volume and accidentally broke his voice - Bai Ling was greatly embarrassed by the bad start, and his delicate little face turned red instantly.
