Great Swordsman Ke Xue.

Chapter 568 Red Leaf's Expectation

Ooka Koha has been staying in Osaka for some time recently to prepare for the next important competition - the Kigetsu Cup Hyakunin Isshu Waka Competition, which is a grand event of karuta competition. For this day, to clear her teacher's name, Ooka Koha has been waiting for a long time.

However, this time, the Gaoyue Cup was also a special way for her to divert her attention.

Regarding her own emotional problems, after listening to her mother's words, Ooka Hongye did think seriously about it for a while.

But first love has nothing to do with rationality. The more I think about it, the more the figure of Shimizu Koji appears in my mind.

So, in the end, Ooka Momiji confirmed her feelings, but for some reasons, she did not set out for Tokyo.

The Nichiren Television Building is one of Osaka's landmark buildings, and this time, as always, Nichiren Television has obtained the exclusive broadcasting rights for the Taizuki Cup. Naturally, some of the early practice and warm-up activities were also held here.

"Iori, how is the investigation going?"

In a lounge, Ooka Momiji was wearing a light pink slim-fitting competition kimono and slowly sipping a cup of black tea. Her gentle and elegant temperament made anyone who saw her think that she was a daughter of a wealthy family.

And this is indeed the case. No matter what the circumstances, Ooka Momiji's unique aura of a young lady is always revealed in her every move.

On the single sofa opposite her, a butler-like man sat upright, like a statue.

After hearing Ooka Hongye's question, he seemed to wake up from his petrified state. "We have already found out that there is an 80% chance that the sender of the invitation letter was Ms. Qianjian, and the Mr. Okami Zhushan who died first, the original owner of the annex, is also likely to be one of the masterminds behind the incident."

"But I didn't find Ms. Qianjian's body. Maybe."

Iori Mumi did not continue talking, and he even skipped over many things because he felt they were too unbelievable and were just his wild speculations. But when he thought about the strange methods that Shimizu Koji used to save them in the mountain villa, he felt that it was not impossible.

"Maybe, it was Koji who did it. That's what you want to say, right?"

"No, no, miss, I——"

"Okay, Iori, I don't mean to blame you. After all, for a person like Koji who is already like a legend, those guys with bad intentions are probably worse than a bug in his eyes."

Iori Muga didn't dare to respond. It was not that he was afraid of Ooka Kouye, but he felt that nothing he said would be appropriate at this time. He also had no idea what Ooka Kouye was thinking.

Although Ooka Momiji used to be from a prominent political family, she was kind-hearted and gentle to others. Even when dealing with those who intended to offend her, she would simply ask them to expel them.

But here we are today.
"Well, although it's always a bit heartbreaking to see a person disappear like that, if it's Koji-kun, maybe this is the man that Grandpa once said is the most worthy of Miss Ooka's love."

Iori Muga had a strange look on his face and lowered his head silently. He admitted that Shimizu Koji was indeed "excellent" enough to be intimidating, but he did not quite agree with what Ooka Koye said.

If he remembered correctly, the eldest lady's grandfather's words actually meant that the eldest lady should get in touch with a young man from a political family.
Well, of course, if compared with Master Qingshui, then the young lady is absolutely right. Anyway, as long as the young lady is happy, it doesn't matter if he works harder.

But when he thought of the other things that Ooka Hongye asked him to investigate, Iori Muga gradually became bitter. He investigated Shimizu Koji's other girlfriends.
He was a little scared before, and after coming back from the Dusk Villa this time, when he saw the smooth and flat hilltop, his heart sank. This was not something that ordinary people could investigate. If he didn't know about it, it would be fine. The key was that he had seen it. Shimizu Koji was a swordsman, and a swordsman who could kill people from a distance.

"Okay, Iori, there's nothing to do here, just come pick me up after you finish your afternoon activities."

"Okay, Miss." Iori Muga stood up respectfully, bowed slightly, and then left Ooka Momiji's lounge.

He was originally a public security official, but a few years ago, he quit his job and went to the Ooka family to work as a butler and bodyguard for Ooka Momiji.

His purpose was simply to protect this young lady who had once saved his life. Apart from the initial surprise at the appearance of Shimizu Koji, the rest was just secret relief.

Koji Shimizu seems to be a little philandering, but having grown up in the social environment of Japan and as a public security officer who is often responsible for the security of important figures, Iori Muga doesn't even think there is anything wrong with this.

In fact, even Ooka Momiji thought there was nothing wrong with this, but she just wanted more. She wanted to marry Shimizu Koji and be the only woman who could stand by his side openly.

With a "click", the door closed, and Ooka Hongye, who had been sitting elegantly, breathed a sigh of relief, stretched her arms, and then leaned on the pillow behind her with her hands wide open.

Despite this indulgent restful behavior, there is no sense of incongruity on her. With her delicate face, slightly closed eyes, and elegant kimono, Ooka Momiji looks like a princess of the royal family.

But in terms of status, even the current royal princesses can't catch up with her.

However, this princess, who is still a young girl, does have a naive and romantic side that is a bit irritating~.

"Wait a little longer, until the Taiyue Cup is over. I will take the victory and confess my love to Koji-kun in front of the national audience."

Ooka Hongye murmured, her eyes were empty and blurred, and the corners of her mouth gradually curled up uncontrollably.

Iori Muga left the lounge of Otsuna Momiji and walked all the way to the elevator door. He was still thinking about Shimizu Koji in his heart, because there was nothing else worthy of his concern at the moment.

"Ding——" The elevator door opened, Iori Muga came to his senses, turned sideways and prepared to make way for the people in the elevator to get off first.

But just as he took a step back, his eyes suddenly widened and he looked straight at a boy holding a little girl in the elevator.

"Master Qingshui!?"
