Chapter 28: To Wash the Underarms, at Least 3 Times a Day!
Kabukicho Park.
At this time, Kagura was sitting on the swing and chatting happily with Soyo whom she had just met. As for Kawaki, he was hiding in the grass behind the two of them.
"I say, it's better if you don't go near here. This is the most dangerous street in all of Edo." Kagura sat on the swing and said seriously.
"Ah, really?" Princess Soyo was shocked.
Kagura nodded seriously.
"Well, what is that in your mouth?" Princess Soyo pointed at the vinegar kelp in Kagura's mouth and asked.
"Vinegar kelp-aru, you can have one too!" As she spoke, Kagura took out a piece of vinegar kelp and handed it to Princess Soyo.
Seeing this scene, her father... Kawaki was so moved that he burst into tears. [What a good child, she grew up very, very well, Sister Kouka! ] Kawaki thought.
"Ah! It's so sour! It's even sourer than my nanny's armpit!" Princess Soyo said in surprise.
"This kind of sourness will make aru addicted." Kagura said with a serious face, "Your nanny's armpit will definitely be addictive!"
"Impossible, absolutely not! That nanny's armpit will definitely not be addictive!" Princess Soyo replied without hesitation. Then, she looked at the vinegar kelp in her hand and sighed, "So people beyond the palace walls eat this sort of thing. This is all new to me!" After saying that, Princess Soyo smiled. Her eyes curved into crescent moons.
"Miss, aren't you a local-aru?" Hearing this, Kagura asked curiously, "Gin-chan and the residents on this street all emit a sense of poverty. But Miss, your body smells very good."
"Hey, where did I come from?" Saying this, Soyo pointed to the tall Shogun's residence in the distance.
"Hey! Your house is so big!" Kagura exclaimed, "Gin-chan told me that it used to be the place where the country's greatest Samurai lived. But, after Amanto came, it was just for show. He said that it had now just become where the most pathetic Samurai live.."
"You're right. No one in this country honor that place anymore," Princess Soyo replied. Then, she lowered her head and looked a little disappointed, "That kind of prop place with only appearance is better destroyed. Then, I would be free..."
"Miss, do you have any troubles? You can discuss anything with me. I am the famous Yorozuya Kagura." Kagura stood up and solemnly introduced herself.
After listening, Soyo couldn't help but smile, "You have a lot of names, not only the Queen of Kabuki District but also the famous Yorozuya Kagura."
"However, if it's trouble. Yes..." As she spoke, Princess Soyo propped up her chin. After a while, she raised her head and asked uncertainly, "Then, can you be friends with me for a day?"
"Of course-aru!"
Kawaki, who was behind the two of them, had originally wanted to step forward to take Kagura away. But when he heard this, he gave up.
[This is... This is the first time that Kagura has made friends with a girl of the same age! ] Father... Kawaki was so moved that he was in a complete mess! [Sigh, Kagura-chan! Go! Father... Uncle will help you stop Shinsengumi! ]
"Ah, isn't this Kagura-chan? What are you doing here?" Kawaki pretended to inadvertently pass by and inadvertently discovered Kagura's appearance, "Is this your friend?"
"Oh~Kawaki~" Seeing the person who came, Kagura greeted her happily and then pointed to Soyo, "Of course, this one..." But before she finished speaking, Soyo covered her mouth.
"I am Soyo." Soyo smiled and looked at Kawaki.
"Soyo? As long as you are Kagura-chan's friend, it doesn't matter what your name is." Kawaki asked with a smile, "So, are you going to play next? Kagura-chan?"
"En" Kagura nodded.
"Then, have fun with your friends~," Kawaki said and secretly came to Kagura's side. He stuffed a stack of money into Kagura's hand, "This is the pocket money that Gintoki asked me to give you. This uncle has other things to do, so I'll see you later~"
With that, Kawaki quickly left
"Kagura-chan, the one just now is..." Soyo finally recovered and asked.
"Kawaki, Gin-chan's friend-aru." Kagura looked at the money in her hand and was a little puzzled, "He is a very good adult. Shinpachi always says that. He will also treat us to delicious food."
"I see..."
On the other side, Hijikata Toshiro was beside the vending machine at this time. He was complaining about why he had to wear such an airtight uniform in such hot weather.
"It's such a hot day, you still have to come out to find someone. What are we doing!" As he spoke, Toshiro picked up the drink that had fallen and took a sip.
"If it's so hot, why don't I help you change into a summer uniform, Hijikata-san?" Sogo's voice rang out.
Toshiro subconsciously turned around and saw Sogo slashing down with his sword! Toshiro wailed and instantly dodged.
"How dangerous. Please don't move. It's easy to get injured." Seeing Toshiro dodge, Sogo had a regretful expression.
"Dangerous? You are the most dangerous existence! What are you doing?" Toshiro sat on the ground, still in shock.
"What? I just want to make a sleeveless shirt for you..." Sogo sighed.
"Nonsense!" Toshiro pointed at Sogo and said, "You just want to chop off my arm!"
"It is in the summer uniform that I designed. Do you want one? It is very handsome." As he said that, Sogo took out a sleeveless Shinsengumi uniform coat. The shoulder of the uniform was still jagged.
"Who wants to wear that kind of thing! It's clearly your prank work, okay!" Toshiro retorted.
However, footsteps approached and Kondo's voice came, "Hey, how's the investigation going?"
Looking at Kondo that was wearing the same jagged sleeveless uniform as the one in Sogo's hands, Toshiro was speechless
"It would be much easier to search the terrorist, but if you want to find that kind of person. You can't act rashly..." Kondo said as he walked between Toshiro and Sogo.
At this time, Toshiro took out a photo of Princess Soyo, "Is Princess-sama trying to run away from home? Humans have different standpoints and worries, but I won't understand the troubles of Princess-sama in this life."
"Indeed, even if the standpoints are different, she is still a young girl. [My father's eyes are so annoying recently], [My father has a middle-aged smell], etc. There are all kinds of troubles." Kondo said.
"So it's all about her father." Toshiro was speechless.
"It's impossible to cover every street in Edo using regular methods. Why don't we just throw a party and invite the princess?!" Sogo suggested.
"Only you would fall for a trap that sounds straight out of a Japanese folktale!" Toshiro complained crazily.
"Then, why don't we first start with her father, so that..."
"It makes sense. Since he is the source, I can't guarantee that I can find Princess-sama this time. Next time, Princess-sama will flee for similar reasons, but it seems too much trouble to find her. So we simply let father obliged to wash his armpits three times a day." Gorilla... Kondo nodded and said.
"Three times? Isn't three times a bit too much?" Sogo said thoughtfully.
"Hey! It's over, right? That armpit is over, right? Who talks about it again! Who is it?" Toshiro shouted and looked at Kawaki, who had sneaked into the group of three, "So it's you."
Kawaki grinned and smiled at the three people who were looking at him. He greeted them, "Hello their Sogo, V-shape bangs, and Gorila-san."
"Hello, your head! Are we familiar with you?" Toshiro was angered, "Why didn't you stay underground properly? Why did you run to the ground? A guy who can't see sunlight."
"Wow, as expected of the police. He is very efficient. He managed to investigate my identity in such a short time." Kawaki sighed with emotion.
"Underground? Isn't he the handsome guy who was chatting and laughing with Otae that day?" Kondo was puzzled.
"Ah, we met before. After we went back, we investigated it. However, the result was really unbelievable. It turned out to be Yoshiwara's people." Toshiro said casually with a cigarette in his mouth, "Although the Bakufu doesn't care about the underground world, I still hope that you can be honest when you get to the ground. Otherwise, I won't let you go so easily like last time!"
However, at this time, Kawaki was having a pleasant conversation with Kondo and Sogo.
"This is a discount coupon. Please come and play when you have time. There are many beautiful girls~" Kawaki whispered in Kondo's ear and stuffed a few coupons into Kondo's hands.
Kondo snorted in disdain, "Who would go to that kind of place? I only have Otae-chan in my heart!" Although he said this, he still calmly put the coupons into his clothes.
"These are the experience coupons for several good clubs, please be sure to accept them," Kawaki said as he stuffed a few experience vouchers with S and M painted on small portraits into Sogo's hands.
"Hey! Are you listening to me or not?" Toshiro was about to explode.
"Ah! I'm really sorry, I didn't prepare anything for you," Kawaki said in surprise, "Actually, I didn't know what V-shape bangs like, so I didn't prepare anything."
"Boss, if there is a human body covered with mayonnaise, Hijikata-san will definitely like it." Sogo raised his hand and said.
"Ah, this doesn't seem to be there," Kawaki was in a dilemma. But after a flash of inspiration, he looked at Toshiro's sincere face and immediately patted his chest and said, "Don't worry! Wait until I go back and ask if there is any girl who wants to smear herself with mayonnaise."
