He rushed forward with lightning speed.
After knocking down several bodyguards blocking the way, Shengren grabbed Yuanshou's hand and rushed into the alley.
Across the alley is the headquarters of the Ushiromiya Group.
Also located in Shinjuku, just from the height of the building, you have a feeling of looking down on all the other mountains.
"Chase, chase for me!"
Apparently, there were also Sumaji family bodyguards in the alley. The bodyguards attacked from both sides, and rushing into the alley was like inviting someone into a trap...
Is that right?
"excuse me!"
Shengren picked up Yuanshou. As she screamed, he threw Yuanshou into the air.
Before Newton started to show his power, he knocked down all the bodyguards blocking the way, then caught Yuanshou and rushed out of the alley.
The headquarters of One-Winged Vulture is just across the street.
There is absolutely no need for Shengren's command.
Yuanshou knew it immediately, so she started running and rushed onto the road.
No one surrounded Enju on the street - it seemed that these were the only bodyguards that Suma Temple had.
"Go ahead, take him down for me!"
"So you guys in Kyoto don't know anything..."
Katsuto shook his head.
"I have no idea what I did at the Mizono family."
Well, it's no big deal though.
It was just a matter of repeating what had been done to the bodyguards of the Mizono family on the bodyguards of the Sumaji family.
Is this what they mean by “what has been will be again, what has been done will be done again”?
It's ok.
Because, at the moment of crying, everything will end.

Chapter 84: Without love, you can't see.
"...Run so fast."
No more than two minutes passed, and Katsuto shrugged as he looked down at the Sumaji bodyguards who had fallen to the ground and were fleeing in a panic.
Enju's aunt, Sumaji Kasumi, was wearing a kimono, but the way she ran away in a panic didn't seem to have any historical feel at all.
No, that's not right.
Shengren covered half of his face and showed a cold smile that he had never shown in front of others before.
"It's not that there's no historical feeling at all, it's that there's a historical clown, ahahahahahahahaha!"
He obviously doesn't laugh like this normally, but for some reason, he has always wanted to experience this kind of laughter once.
If Sister You heard it, she might pull her ears and force her to sleep.
Fortunately, Hirasawa Yu is not here.
There is someone else here.
"Yeah, you are worthy of being Master Shengren."
A frivolous voice sounded from behind.
Shengren turned around and saw a man standing behind him.
"This is such a decisive and sharp move. Even I, a former mercenary, am ashamed of myself."
"You are being modest, Amakusa."
The victor puts the two-handed swords and guns he uses for fighting into storage.
The visitor's name is Amakusa Jusan, and he was Huiyu's former bodyguard.
He used to be a bodyguard for Enju, but because he repeatedly violated Huiwa's strict orders not to talk to Enju, he was eventually disliked by Huiwa and was fired by her.
Therefore, in the chaos before April, Katsutomo had never fought against Amakusa Jusan.
However, even if Amakusa was there at the time, the result would not have changed.
"Although I am confident in hand-to-hand combat, it would be different if I were to use weapons, right?"
The famous philosopher Thai Dou Shen once said that there is a high wall between bare hands and armed.
The weapons here are certainly not daggers, sticks or the like.
But a gun.
Shengren has the confidence that he will not easily lose to anyone in a bare-handed fight.
But it’s different with a gun, right?
If everyone is equal under the bullet, then who is Arthur Morgan? Who is John Marston?
Oh, John Marston really illustrated this quote well.
After all, he was shot to death.
It can only be said that American Iai has indeed narrowed the gap between the high and low, but experience and talent in using guns are still very important.
Especially a man who moves between the Self-Defense Forces, the Foreign Legion, and various civilian military companies.
A mediocre shooting skill is not good enough.
"Don't worry, young master. The Ushiromiya family has the gene to be good at using guns in their bloodline. I'll teach you when I have time, and you'll learn it in no time."
"Then we'll talk about it when the time comes."
Since Amakusa Jusan appeared here, that means—
They are safe.
At least it's safe now.
Katsuto crossed the street at a leisurely pace and arrived at the entrance of Ushiromiya's building.
Yuanshou walked forward very quickly and looked Shengren up and down.
After making sure that he was not injured, he turned around and entered the building.
"I don't know whether your relationship with the eldest lady is good or bad, young master."
Amakusa Jusan shrugged and said jokingly.
"Who knows, it's neither good nor bad."
Or maybe zero would be more appropriate.
From negative to zero.
Because of their opposing views, Shengren and Yuanshou would quarrel every time they met.
But in the final analysis, they don't have any deep hatred.
Plus, since Shengren has become more open-minded about this, they will probably become close sooner or later.
Getting along becomes in line with the attitude of blood relatives.
Afterwards, Katsuto temporarily left Amakusa Jusan under the building and entered the building himself.
In the spacious modern conference room, only Yuanshou, Shengren, and an old gentleman in a high-end suit were there.
Although this conference room is equipped with various cutting-edge equipment for presenting business plans, it does not lose its noble and calm atmosphere.
These alone show the social status of the company that owns this conference room, and it is awe-inspiring.
And now, the two people conversing in this conference room were the ones other than Katsuto.
"…Speaking of that incident…No, it was an accident. If I call it an incident, I'll get criticized. I also have the same doubts as public opinion and gossip shows."
The old gentleman said this in a nonchalant tone, but Yuanshou looked like he couldn't accept it.
"…Why was Aunt Huiba alone two kilometers away from the house when the accident happened? And it was during a stormy night."
"At that time, Mr. Kinzo was hesitant about who to choose as the successor... Although it was apparently decided that the eldest son, Mr. Kurasu, would be the successor, Mr. Kinzo did not trust Mr. Kurasu very much."
"...Then, in order to fairly choose an heir from among the four siblings, he set up the riddle of the inscription, a test that was full of game-like flavor?"
"That's true on the surface... I'm afraid that Mr. Kinzo wanted Ms. Huiwa to take over from the beginning..."
"The new rule that 'whoever solves the mystery of the inscription will inherit the family heir' is just a trick to take the title of the next head from Kurasu."
"Little trick, what does that mean?"
Yuanshou's already frowned brows furrowed even tighter.
Shengren really wanted to say, you will age quickly if you keep doing this.
But now there is indeed no chance to make a mistake and interrupt.
"That inscription doesn't need anyone to decipher it. Just take some time to reveal it, and then Mr. Kinzo can call over Ms. Ewa, the one he really wants to inherit the family business, to teach her the answer."
Old Gentleman——
Ushiromiya Ewa's right-hand man, and someone that Katsuto couldn't trust for some reason, Kokonogi Tetsurou, spoke up.
His company used to have a good relationship with Ushiromiya Hideyoshi, Ewa's husband's company, and had close exchanges with the couple.
Therefore, he is also the only one Huiyu can confide in after losing her family.
A person who speaks from the heart.
"In other words, this is the proof of succession to the position of headmaster. On that day, Mr. Kinzo asked Ms. Ewa to go to the secret house, Kyuuba-no-Tori-an, which only the headmaster knew about, in order to succeed the position of headmaster."
“…And did Aunt Ewa go to the secret house and wait there earlier, so she avoided the accident? It’s possible that Aunt Ewa faked the accident and killed everyone in order to take away all the property, and then escaped alone.”
Hearing Enju's usual tone, Mr. Kokonoki sighed.
"As the new head of the Ushiromiya family, Master Katsuto, what do you think?"
“…What can I say?”
Shengren, who was called over, sat carelessly on the high-end chair occupied by directors with annual incomes of tens of millions, looking relaxed and contented.
But things are not as they seem.
Shengren was not as calm as he looked.
He was just under a lot of pressure because of the topics that Yuanshou often brought up, which he couldn't interrupt. He couldn't help himself unless he sat comfortably and relaxed.
Needless to say, the topic they were talking about was the Rokukenjima Massacre eleven years ago.
It is known that only Huiyu survived the tragedy, while Enshou's parents and brother all died on Rokukenjima.
It is also known that Enshou hates Huiyu.
So, isn't it obvious what answer she will come up with?
"If you insist on deriving the conclusion that Ms. Huiyu is guilty, then no matter what the matter is, it will only make her more convinced of this conclusion."
Yuanshou firmly believes that——
She firmly believed that Huiyu was the murderer who killed her family and other relatives and seized her property.
So, he said nothing.
In response to this, Mr. Okonomi also sighed deeply.
"That's what they call, without love, you can't see."
