Seeing that Qingden and the other three people had arrived, Arima put down the brush in his hand, put his hands behind his back, and stood up.
Arima's style of doing things is that he will never procrastinate, and he will never use two words to explain something that can be said in one word.
Therefore, when chatting with him, I often cannot keep up with his extremely fast chat pace.
For example, right now——
"Good morning to you too."
"You guys come with me now. Master Fengxing summoned all the members of the 'Three Chapters' today and told us that he has something important to tell us."
"Gathering all the members of the 'Three Chapters'... important matters..." Inotani twitched the corner of his mouth, "Arima-sama, is there some troublesome case?"
"I don't know about that. In short - after you go to Mr. Fengxing's office, you will know what to do with us."
After finishing speaking, Arima took his own sword which was placed on the knife holder next to him, and led Qingteng towards the office of Feng Xing.
With Arima leading the way, Qingteng and his team immediately became the most handsome boys in the entire northern region!
With his never squinting gaze and his attitude of always turning 90 degrees when turning, it is difficult not to attract people's attention.
The office of the mayor is located on the top floor of the Kitabansuo.
The distance from Arima's office to the town's office is not that short.
Following Arima, he turned into a deserted corridor. Qingden turned around and looked around him. After confirming that no outsiders were around, he cleared his throat:
"...Arima-sama, I have something very important to tell you."
"Huh? Say."
"Sir Arima, I... was targeted by people from the 'rejection faction'."
"What?"
Arima stopped abruptly, turned around and cast a shocked look at Qingden.
Inoya and Ushiyama, who were walking on the left and right of Qingden, both looked at Qingden in shock.
"About a month ago, I was attacked by four 'rejecting barbarians', and then the night before yesterday, when I returned home after completing the extermination operation against the 'Benevolent and Righteous People', I was attacked by three more 'repelling barbarians'
A sneak attack..."
Ayoto told Arima and others in a concise and concise manner the entire process and reasons why he was attacked by the "anti-barbarian faction".
The original owner of this body - "Original Orange Qingden" is a person who doesn't know whether it should be said to be gentle or dull...
One month ago, after being attacked by the "Expelling Barbarians" for the first time, he did not inform anyone except his own servant Jiubei that he was being targeted by the "Expelling Barbarians"!
And the reason he gave for doing this was very simple - he didn't want to bring unnecessary burden to his companions who were busy dealing with the "Benevolent and Righteous People" at that time.
The night before yesterday, the extermination of the "people of benevolence and righteousness" was very enjoyable.
But in order to have such a fun night, Arima, Inodani, Ushiyama, and "Original Tachibana Aoden" also paid a lot of price.
It took the four people nearly a month and a half to collect enough intelligence and make perfect preparations.
One month ago, when "Original Orange Qingdeng" was attacked by the "Expeller Faction" for the first time, everyone was very busy trying to collect useful information.
At that time, in order to analyze the truly valuable information from a pile of information that was difficult to distinguish between true and false, Arima, Inodani, and Ushiyama did not even close their eyes for several days in a row.
"Original Orange Qingden" is worried that telling his companions at this time: I am being targeted by the "anti-barbarian faction" will affect everyone's morale and work progress, causing this pursuit of the "Benevolent and Righteous People" to be undermined.
Influence.
So, he chose to hide it.
Only one person, Jiubei, was informed of this matter.
Kyubei is also a dull-tempered person. After being warned by "Hara Tachibana Aoden" not to tell anyone about this matter, he also obediently kept his mouth shut.
Qingden didn't know whether "Original Orange Qingden"'s move was right or wrong.
All he knows is that the "Benevolent and Righteous People" have been destroyed. In the past month or so, the huge burden on the shoulders of Arima and others has finally been lifted. He no longer needs to worry about anything like "Original Orange Qingden"
"Affects morale and mission".
It is obviously much wiser to fight against terrorists like "radical aliens" and seek support and help from colleagues who are also "police" than to foolishly fight alone.
This morning, Seito made up his mind to reveal to Arima and others the whole story of how he was attacked by the "rejection faction" today at the right time.
As soon as Qingdeng finished speaking, I saw Inoya's face, as gloomy as coal.
"In order not to affect the pursuit of the 'Benevolent and Righteous People', you chose to hide it from us? Mr. Ju... what should I say to you..."
"Why didn't you tell us earlier?"
Inoya, who usually always has a smile on his face, now has a rather scary expression.
"If something happens to you, how will we face your father when we go to Jiuquan in the future?"
Arima, Inodani, Ushiyama—the relationship between these three people and Qingto is not just an ordinary relationship between colleagues.
The three of them are both colleagues of Aoto... and were also colleagues of Aoto's late father: Takayuki Tachibana.
Half a year ago, when Aoto's father, Tachibana Takayuki, was still alive and still a member of the northern clan, Tachibana Takayuki, Inotani and Ushiyama had served under Arima for many years.
Qingzun learned that his father had an excellent relationship with Arima, Inotani, and Ushiyama. After Tachibana Takayuki died of illness, all three of them, including Tachibana Takayuki, Ma, Inoya, and Ushiyama, attended Tachibana Takayuki's funeral. Inoya still cried bitterly in front of Tachibana Takayuki's memorial tablet.
Almost fainting.
The reason why Qingden was able to successfully take over his father's position and become the new Tongxin of the Dingding Hui was due to the secret help of Ma, Pig, and Ox, who were already working as errands in the Dingding Hui.
Therefore, to Qingdeng, the horse, pig, and ox are not only companions who work together, but also elders who have a close relationship with his family.
This is also the reason why Qingden always calls Inoya and Ushiyama "sir" and uses honorifics towards them.
Facing the questioning from his colleague and the elder who had a close relationship with his father, Qingdeng lowered his head:
"Feel sorry……"
Qingdeng now feels like "taking the blame"...
This pot obviously belongs to "Original Orange Qingden" and has nothing to do with me. As a result, I and "Original Orange Qingden" are already one, so I have to bear the burden of this big, dark and heavy pot.
pot……
Inoya opened his mouth, as if he was about to say something more to Qingden.
But at this time, Ushiyama raised his hand and patted Inoya on the shoulder.
"Okay, Inoya." Ushiyama said solemnly, "Tachibana did that for us."
Inotani turned his head and glanced at Ushiyama who tried to dissuade him.
After a moment of silence, Inotani slowly closed his mouth, which he had been preparing to scold Qingto again just now.
"...Tachibana-kun."
At this time, Arima, who had been silent just now, stared straight at Qingteng with his owl-like eyes and asked:
"So far, you have been attacked twice, one month ago and the night before yesterday, right?"
Qingden nodded.
"Do the 'anti-barbarian faction' dare to kill even the 'Three Chapters' people now..." Arima frowned slightly, "... Mr. Tachibana, give me a detailed paper report before tomorrow afternoon. I will come in person.
Deal with the matter."
Qingdeng: "Yes."
"...Let's go." Arima glanced at Inotani, turned around, and turned his back to Qingto and others again, "We still need to attend the meeting in Mr. Shogyue's office. The meeting should be held soon.
It’s about to begin.”
"If there's anything else... let's talk about it after attending the meeting."
Inotani glanced at Arima's back as he was striding away, then at Aoto next to him, pursed his lips, and then took the lead in striding after Arima.
"... Inotani was also concerned about causing chaos just now. Don't take Inotani's reprimand too seriously." Ushiyama raised his hand and patted Qingden's shoulder, "You are Takayuki's son after all, and Inotani also cares about you, a junior, that's why he scolded you like that.
you."
"It's okay, Mr. Ushiyama." Qingden smiled at Ushiyama, "I know that Mr. Inotani shouted those words to me just now because he was worried about me. Mr. Ushiyama, don't worry, I won't do it just because of this.
He treated Mr. Inotani with a cold shoulder because of the matter."
"That's good." Niushan, who usually kept a straight face, rarely showed a smile on his cheeks.
"Tangerine, let's go."
Ushiyama patted Qingden on the shoulder again.
"It's time to go to the meeting."
