Chapter 540 Miss Okita’s bedding is wet
A room is just like the person it is - the director's room is just like her, neat and refreshing in a refreshing style.
"It seems a little cold. I'll close the window."
As he said this, the director stood up and walked towards the large open window in three steps and two steps at a time.
Since he was in his own room and it was almost bedtime, Souji was dressed very relaxedly.
Wearing a close-fitting white pajamas.
Her hair, which is usually combed into a high ponytail, was let down and spread over her shoulders like a waterfall.
Without socks, a pair of white bare feet with full insteps click on the tatami, which is so cute.
As for the "four-dimensional bra wrap", it was naturally untied, and the liberated woman stretched her pajamas into an uneven shape.
Qingdeng turned his head and looked at the figure that was very different from usual. He couldn't help but murmur in his heart: Xiao Si's bra wrap is really unscientific!
Although Souji's figure is not as hot as Sanako and Mai Kinoshita, for ordinary women, it is already a very impressive level.
Her bra wrap could perfectly hide such a breathtaking arc into a smooth straight line... It's incredible no matter how you think about it.
"...Tachibana-kun, what are you looking at?"
At this time, Qingden suddenly felt a cold gaze - Souji glared at him, turned his body sideways and covered his chest with his hands.
At this moment, when facing Sanako, Kinoshita Mai and Souji, Aomori instinctively activated the two talents he often used: "Emperor's Art" and "Trickster +1"!
He sat up and said seriously but without losing emotion:
"Because this white dress suits you so well, I couldn't help but look at it a few more times..."
"Come on this."
Before Qingden could finish his words, the director interrupted angrily.
"Do you think I am Miss Kinoshita? Do you think I will be like Miss Kinoshita, who will be coaxed into joy after hearing you say a few nice words?"
"I saw it clearly, you were looking at my... my......"
At the end of the words, the chief general hesitated and hesitated, and his face turned red rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Hmph! Anyway, I know that compared to Miss Chiba and Miss Kinoshita, my body is just like that of a little girl."
"That's not the case."
Qingdeng put on a serious expression.
"It is true that compared to Sanako and Awu, your body..."
In an instant, laser-like hot gaze was directed towards Qingdeng.
Qingdeng trembled violently, and then quickly changed his words:
"But, you have something that neither Sanako nor Amai has that fascinates me!"
"Oh? For example?"
"For example: when I feel tired and want to rely on someone, the first figure that comes to my mind is always you."
After saying that, Qingto lay back on the tatami, spread his limbs flat, and changed his body posture into a "big" shape again.
Upon seeing this, the director's eyes and expression softened immediately.
She no longer cares about glaring at Qingdeng with laser-like eyes, and kneels to the side of Qingdeng's head, stroking his hair and asking softly:
"Tachibana-kun, what's wrong? Is there anything that's bothering you?"
"Huh? It's nothing. I'm just... worried about the vacancy of the Shinsengumi chief's position."
The "four chiefs" of the Shinsengumi - the deputy chief in charge of military affairs, the chief in charge of supervision, the chief in charge of administration, and the chief in charge of logistics - the deputy chief, the chief, and the chief have been composed of Hijikata Toshizo, Kondo Isamu and Shannan respectively.
Keisuke will serve as the director, and currently only the candidate for the office manager is still undecided.
"When fighting a war, we fight for logistics", "While the troops and horses are not moving, food and grass go first", "When the cannon goes off, there is ten thousand taels of gold"... these common sayings must have been familiar to the world for a long time.
For a semi-independent military group like the Shinsengumi, the importance of logistics is self-evident.
In a sense, the office chief is the most important position among the "four chiefs" of the Shinsengumi.
Since the Shinsengumi currently only has about 200 people in total, it is not a large group, so Qingdeo can also manage to hold the position of chief of the department while handling his own duties.
But when the Shinsengumi grows in the future and the logistical pressure increases exponentially with the expansion of the scale, Seito will definitely no longer be able to hold two jobs as he does now.
It is necessary to find a talent who can serve as the director as soon as possible, the sooner the better.
In Seito's plan, the Shinsengumi must complete modernization.
The current Shinsengumi is a standard feudal army.
Not only has the popularization of organizational discipline not yet been completed, but even the level of equipment has remained at the level of the Warring States Period hundreds of years ago. Not only muskets and artillery, but no trace of cavalry in the entire army.
No matter how much the feudal army can fight, its upper limit is just that.
History has proven countless times that in the face of an army that has completed modernization, the feudal army is no different than an eggshell—vulnerable.
It is imperative to introduce Western equipment and military systems to complete the transformation of the Shinsengumi!
The logistical pressures of feudal armies and modern armies are incomparable.
The equipment consumption of the former is not outstanding. Except for arrows, swords, guns and armor are not weapons that need to be replenished frequently.
This is not the case with modern armies.
Bullets, artillery shells, guns, barrels... which one doesn't cost tens of millions a day?
In modern wars, weapons are consumed much faster than food and grass, and extremely high levels of logistics are required to maintain the combat effectiveness of the army.
The head of the Shinsengumi must have extraordinary management experience, outstanding mathematical minds, and extraordinary commanding abilities, otherwise he will not be able to undertake the logistics work of a modern army.
Such an important task cannot be accomplished without an outstanding person.
Because of this, "Who should fill the vacancy of the room director?" This question has given Qingdeng a headache until now.
In Qingdeng's social circle, there are many fierce generals who can defeat a hundred with one, or even defeat a thousand with one ride.
But there are really almost no wise men who are proficient in mathematics and management and can engage in logistics work... After thinking about it, there are only two people - my grandson Chutaro and Katsurintaro.
They were obviously the only two candidates, but Qingdeng couldn't invite anyone.
The former has long since passed away, and the latter cannot be under his command.
Rintaro Katsu was one of Tokugawa Iemo's most trusted ministers.
Wakabu Rintaro Aoto, regardless of whether he himself would agree with it or not, he would not be able to pass Tokugawa Iemo's test. There was no way Tokugawa Iemo would let him go because he was so short of manpower.
After understanding Qingden's troubles, the director looked like he was thinking hard.
"...Tangerine-kun."
For a moment, she leaned over her upper body, her shadow covering Qingdeng's face, and she met Qingdeng's eyes in a condescending manner.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
She took a deep breath and said seriously:
"Why don't you let me be the head of the Shinsengumi!"
"..."
"..."
quiet……
For an instant, there was an unusual silence inside and outside the boudoir.
"Hey, Tachibana-kun, are you thinking of something very rude?"
The laser-like sight is back...
"I don't……"
Saying that, Qingden quietly looked away...
If you were asked to be the head of the Shinsengumi, the Shinsengumi would be doomed! I asked you to calculate yesterday's battle losses, but you told me that -187 shells were used yesterday, and the number of shells did not decrease but increased, and
Only three rounds of bullets were used - Qingto could not say such hurtful words in front of the Souji.
Souji is not good at arithmetic - Qingto learned this deeply before he got acquainted with her.
The ability to calculate 9 plus 27 into 107 is still fresh in Qingdeng’s memory to this day.
Perhaps this is the so-called "If God opens a door for you, he will inevitably close a window for you."
Souji's swordsmanship talent and physical ability are truly unique.
But her mathematical talent... is really hard to describe.
Her motivation for studying mathematics was to help manage the account books of the Examination Hall in the future, filling the gap of "no one in the Examination Hall knows how to calculate accounts".
Therefore, when the General Secretary is studying mathematics, it can be said that he does not care about it and works hard.
But the results are... if I say there is no progress at all, that's not true.
After arduous self-study, coupled with the careful guidance of Qingnobo, Hijikata Tobizo and others, she can finally calculate addition and subtraction within 100. It is gratifying, gratifying...
Although Souji was very moved by Souji's sincerity in wanting to share the pressure for him, he asked her to serve as the head of the Shinsengumi...but please allow him to refuse sternly!
Just when Qingteng was thinking about what words to use to politely reject the Souji's kindness, he saw her putting her hands on her hips and curling her red lips:
"I'm just joking! Of course I know that with my little level, I can bring down the Shinsengumi in two days. But, all joking aside, the look you gave me just now as if you were looking at a fool, can't be
How rude!"
The boss's angry gaze made Qingdeng's skin ache.
Speechless, he could only silently look away in a different direction.
In order to cover up his embarrassment, Qingdeng hurriedly changed the topic:
"Okay! Let's not talk about this anymore! Let's talk about business!"
"Business?"
Qingden turned to the left, lying on his side facing the chief, raised his left arm to support his head.
"Xiao Si, you always say to me: 'I alone can make you very tired. Where do you get the confidence to say that you want to marry three wives?'."
"?"
The general manager blinked, looking confused.
But then, as if she realized something, she showed an expression of realization and cast a teasing look at Qingden.
"Hoho~ I understand~~ I said why did you suddenly break into my room tonight? It turned out to be for this matter. What? You are not convinced by my words, so you want to take action
Prove me wrong?"
As he spoke, Souji narrowed his eyes, curved the corners of his mouth into the shape of "ω", stretched out the index finger, middle finger, and ring finger of his right hand, and lightly touched his lips with the fingertips. He deliberately put on a sinister tone and continued the words:
"Ju-kun, don't blame me for not reminding you. Haven't you tried hard many times before? They all ended in failure. Don't push yourself too hard for the so-called dignity of a man~~"
Faced with the "provocation" from the General Secretary, Qingteng remained silent.
He only raised the corners of his mouth, looked into the Souji's eyes, and smiled without saying a word...
…
…
The next day——
Edo, Koishikawa Kohinagayanagicho, Imperial Guard Hall, Garden——
The general manager spread out the freshly washed bedding on the clothes drying rack.
For some reason, her face looked a little pale, and her movements... especially when walking, were particularly stiff.
"General Director?"
At this time, a magnetic male voice suddenly sounded behind Souji.
Souji's body shook violently several times, like a Shiba Inu whose tail had been stepped on.
She hurriedly turned back and put on a stiff smile:
"Hijikata-san, morning!"
Recently, Hijikata Toisho has been staying at the Imperial Guard Hall.
He folded his arms and stood on the verandah, looking up and down at the General Secretary with a scrutinizing gaze.
"Director-General, what are you doing this early in the morning?"
"No, I'm not doing anything..."
As the Souji answered, he quietly stood half a step aside and used his body to block the bedding on the clothes drying rack behind him.
"I was just drying the newly washed bedding. I accidentally soiled the bedding last night, so I got up early and washed the dirt off with water..."
"Freshly laundered bedding?"
Hijikata raised her eyes, looked at Souji's face thoughtfully, and then looked at the quilt behind her.
"I see, are you drying the newly washed bedding? Your bedding is indeed wet. But... Souji, I don't understand something. Please clarify it for me."
Before waiting for a response from the general manager, Toshizo Hijikata asked himself:
"You said your bedding was freshly washed, but I didn't hear the sound of fetching or using water just now."
Souji's expression and body froze instantly.
"This...this...is, you didn't hear it?"
Hijikata Toshizo gently shook his head.
"Even if I didn't hear the sound of fetching water or running water, if you wash the bedding, there should be traces of the sewage you poured out on the ground, right?"
After saying that, Hijikata Toisho pursed his lips towards the ground of the courtyard.
"The ground here is dry, there is no trace of water."
"Well……"
The Souji tightened his pale lips and hesitated to speak, his whole little face turned a strange crimson color.
"Also, your complexion is a bit strange. There is no color on your cheeks and lips. Did you not sleep well last night?"
"Uh huh...!"
Looking at the general manager who was looking more and more embarrassed, Hijikata Toshizo's lips raised a vague arc.
"Speaking of last night... Chief, I have another question to ask you."
"Wha, what's the problem...?"
"I kept hearing strange sounds coming from your room last night. What was going on? If I heard correctly, those strange sounds were all your shouts."
The moment his words fell, Souji seemed to have crashed, and he stood still on the spot.
It wasn't until 3 seconds later that she came back to her senses and shouted:
"You, you, you, did you hear everything?!"
"Yes, I heard you clearly. Chief, you shouted really loudly. This is the first time I know you have such a loud voice."
Confusion, shame, panic...an incalculable variety of emotions were beautifully mixed on Souji's face.
It is difficult to accurately summarize and describe the changes in her expression using only human words.
After nearly 10 seconds passed like this, she——
"Ah wow wow wow wow...!"
He squatted down, covering his red face with his hands, and let out a cute scream.
Hijikata Toshizo observed the General Secretary's every move with great interest.
After a while, he finally burst out laughing because he couldn't hold it back.
"Hahahaha! Okay, Souji, I won't tease you anymore. I was just joking with you. I didn't hear anything last night. I think it's the same with other people. The area and structure of this trial hall
, the decoration style is beyond praise, but the sound insulation of the room is very good.”
Speaking of this, Hijikata Tosei paused for a moment, and then changed into a serious tone:
"Although it's not the turn of people like me to say this...but you and Tachibana should be more restrained."
He raised his gaze and looked at the wet quilt again.
"What on earth did you do to turn a perfectly good quilt into this state..."
After leaving these words, Hijikata Toshizo turned and left.
"Just kidding...that's it..."
Souji murmured to himself, his expression finally looking better.
After Hijikata Toshizo's footsteps were completely gone, she hurriedly stood up, completely spread the bedding on the clothes drying pole, jumped up the corridor as if running away, and rushed back into the house.
However...she had just taken a few steps when she bumped into someone - the rosy-faced Qingden.
"?!"
Looking at Qingteng in front of him, the General Secretary subconsciously tightened his shoulders, showing fear on his face.
This posture, this look, is very much like a wounded animal.
"Well, well... I'm really tired! I'm leaving first!"
Having said that, the general manager lowered his head and walked forward, crossing shoulders with Qingden who had a meaningful smile on his face...
