The boy in the kendo uniform patted his chest, his eyes filled with the pride that came with his age, radiating youthful vigor.

"rest assured."

"Not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can take my head!"

Chapter 275 Please

After parting ways with Kudo Yuichi, Uesugi Kiyoshi strolled towards the ward.

He and Dazai Osamu had only met a few times, but they were still companions, or rather, "colleagues".

They share the same stance.

This attempted crime involved Uesugi Kiyoshi working with him when he killed Tosho Shinjun. His ability to temporarily strip away the enemy's supernatural power was indeed very troublesome.

If they were to join forces with Ryunosuke Akutagawa's Rashomon, even Kiyoshi Uesugi would have to be careful.

Of course, this is on the premise that the "attempted crime" can truly eliminate Uesugi Kiyoshi's "supernatural" abilities.

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't think too much and simply pushed the door open and entered.

Then his nose was filled with the scents of various perfumes.

This isn't a hospital ward, it's more like a nightclub!

The sounds of women singing could be heard all around. Five or six beautiful women of various kinds were busy attending to him. Dazai Osamu was surrounded by them like a star on the moon, and a frivolous smile was on his weak face.

Uesugi Kiyoto was stunned.

Are you kidding me, boss? This isn't a hospital, it's the headquarters of the Superhuman Association!

Why did you invite all your girlfriends over?

At first glance, Uesugi Kiyoshi looked like he had wandered into an adult video filming set!

The scariest thing is... why didn't they start fighting!

That's not scientific!

Shouldn't it be a chaotic scene, a showdown with weapons, and a showdown on the rooftop?

Why are you sitting back and doing nothing while everyone else is so friendly?

Meeting his somewhat incredulous gaze, Dazai Osamu seemed to understand Uesugi Kiyoshi's question.

"Ah, Uesugi, it's been a long time."

"I'm sorry you had to see me injured like this."

"It's alright. The five underground floors and above are all public areas, and they're not outsiders."

As expected, three of the five women stood up when they saw Uesugi Kiyoshi enter.

"Association Medical Orthopedics Team 3, Ayanokouji Yukina greets Lord Onikiri!"

"Chimi Akikawa, leader of Group 5, Third Special Operations Team, greets Lord Onikiri."

The last person to stand up was a blonde, blue-eyed, and voluptuous beauty who greeted them in broken Japanese.

"Just call me Eva. I'm an A-rank investigator dispatched from headquarters. Hello, Onikiri-sama. I've often heard about your heroic deeds."

Now, Uesugi Kiyoshi's mouth, already agape in surprise, gaped open even wider.

So you're like a rabbit that only nibbles on the grass near its burrow?

You're not even sparing the association members, you keep causing trouble?

How have you managed to survive until now?

Don't try to use heroic spirits as a scapegoat! Dazai Osamu wasn't as unrestrained as you!

While screaming wildly in his heart, Uesugi Kiyoshi, out of politeness, coughed lightly, composed his expression without revealing his true feelings, and glanced at the remaining two women.

Kendo uniform, standard suit.

Government departments? Or a kendo dojo? Could they be members of the Shinsengumi?

Niubi!

Uesugi Kiyoshi, whose opinion of Dazai Osamu had already been greatly elevated in his mind, forced a smile, nodded to the girls, cleared his throat, and said, "Ah, I was presumptuous. I thought no one was home, so I didn't knock."

"Are you OK?"

Dazai Osamu smiled gently and nodded, his eyes flashing, and said, "Thank you for your concern, I'm not going to die yet."

"Since you've come, then you're the one who's coming to Akutagawa's aid?"

"Well, Kudo isn't that stubborn. His presence would be useless. What Akutagawa needs now is strong military support."

"Your arrival, [Demon-Sealing Sword Soul], is perfectly timed."

Uesugi Kiyoshi nearly caught his breath.

What the hell?

The Eastern Sword Demon is one thing, but what the hell is the Sealed Demon Sword Soul?

Why don't you call me the Swift Wind Swordsman? Anyway, now that my sword energy is unleashed, I can sweep away any obstacle in front of me like a whirlwind!

Uesugi Kiyoshi was internally complaining, but he couldn't say it out loud in front of others, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Huh? What, you didn't know?"

"I heard about it in Kyoto."

"A genius swordsman who single-handedly slayed an Outer God, the sharpest sword in the Collectors Association, the direct descendant of the Shinkage-ryu school, and the nemesis of demons and gods."

"Being able to kill an Outer God single-handedly, this combat power is already at the level of a strategic weapon. Mortals may not know this, but your name has already spread throughout the world of extraordinary beings."

There are no secrets in this world.

"You are a swordsman, but you don't yet have the title of sword master. Because of your deeds of slaying demons and monsters, they all call you [Demon-Sealing Sword Soul] -- Uesugi Kiyoshi."

"It sounds better than 'Sword Demon,' right?"

Uesugi Kiyoshi shook his head with a wry smile.

"It's really not good. It's a bit distracting. I'm not here to dwell on this."

"If it's convenient, tell me how you got injured."

"The more detailed the intelligence, the better."

When Dazai Osamu heard about the serious matter, he also stopped smiling.

"Well, I don't know the specifics either. The commission was handled by Akutagawa. The higher-ups of the Phoenix Institute Zaibatsu asked him to handle a supernatural incident. This kind of thing is perfectly normal."

"Preliminary investigation, intelligence confirmation, planning, and execution of the operation."

"Everything is proceeding smoothly, with Akutagawa personally overseeing things, and there are no mistakes."

"But we were ambushed halfway there."

"Countless ordinary people were also implicated. The field agents suffered heavy losses, and several investigators who participated in the battle did not return. It seems that my abilities are not enough to completely seal off those enemies. I was attacked at close range, got beaten up, and ended up like this."

"If it weren't for Akutagawa's Rashomon protecting me, I probably would have died there."

“Akutagawa was also seriously injured. It was only after the commotion alerted other superhumans that the enemy became alert and retreated, allowing us to catch our breath.”

"You know I don't manage things, I just do the work. For specific details, you'll have to ask Akutagawa."

"I can tell you. Let me think about it."

"By the way, the one who injured me was a bald man."

"He was wearing a mask and had strange abilities, like mental attacks. But after I sealed his supernatural abilities, his physical body was also extremely strong, enough to tear apart a sin beast, smash through Rashomon, and directly injure me."

That's about it.

Uesugi Kiyoshi frowned and pondered for a moment before asking in a low voice, "Is it a human or a ghost?"

This is important; spirits, occultists, or supernatural beings can directly alter the nature of things.

Dazai Osamu shook his head, pondered for a moment, and said uncertainly, "I think it looks like a person."

"Extraordinary individuals".

"It shouldn't be a ghost or god, and the shaman doesn't seem like it either. I always felt that he was very clear-headed, his moves were methodical, and his retreat was decisive. He didn't seem to have any intention of fighting us to the death."

Uesugi Kiyoshi squinted, his mind racing with thoughts, before finally nodding.

"Okay, I've received your intelligence."

"Take good care of yourself and get well soon. I won't bother you anymore."

"."

"do not worry."

“I will always remember your help when you came to Dongwen Association.”

"I have a duty to help you if you get into trouble this time."

"I will definitely cut off the head of the person who hurt you and avenge you."

Uesugi Kiyoshi and Dazai Osamu exchanged a glance. Seeing the resolute and slightly angry look in his eyes, a pleasant smile gradually appeared on Dazai Osamu's somewhat frail and delicate face.

"It's so good to hear this. How should I put it, Uesugi, I'm the kind of person who holds a grudge."

"He hit me so hard, it hurt like hell!"

"That's it."

"please!"

Chapter 276 Dinner at the Uesugi Family

Uesugi Kiyoshi frowned, lost in thought about the sudden incident, and strolled out of the Collectors Association's gate.

Phoenix Courtyard

"Fuyao went to Kyoto because something happened on her mother's side of the family and she had to go there to resolve it, but it's been so long and she still hasn't returned."

"Could it be related to this?"
