Chapter 239 Copying Talent [Body of Water] and the Rare Genius Detective
Exploring【5100】
Of course Qingdeng will not use any two-sword style.
The reason why he suddenly pulled out his two swords was purely to abolish Akutsu's strategy of "alternating the use of sickles and splitting copper attacks"!
Although Qingto had to "sacrifice" one hand... Akutsu was significantly more affected.
In an instant, Akutsu's eyes opened as wide as his copper.
He subconsciously wanted to take back the coins.
But when it comes to strength, Qingdeng, who has been training for more than half a year and has the waist of a bear, doesn't scare anyone.
Qingdeng mustered up all his strength, making his neck as thick as his face, exerting force on his waist and spine, and tightening his arm muscles, causing the clothes on his left sleeve and back to bulge into small peaks.
The chain, which was pulled tightly, made a strange "clacking" sound, as if it was about to break at any time.
The copper who tries to recover it, and the wakizashi who clings to the copper... neither of them will let the other go.
The fighting power between Ayoto and Akutsu is in a stalemate, and neither one has a clear upper hand - but for Ayoto, this is enough!
In the blink of an eye, Qingden's figure arrived in front of Akutsu, who had lost most of his combat power due to the lack of Copper's coordinated attack!
call--!
The blade slashed down, pulling out a silver-white sword light that ran straight through Akutsu's body under the moonlight.
When one end of the locking sickle is controlled by Qingto, Akutsu can only advance but cannot retreat unless he abandons his weapon.
"Tsk...!" Akutsu gritted his teeth and put the sickle back into his right palm——
clang!
Jumping sparks burst out from the colliding blades.
The sickle used by Akutsu is not a farm tool specially used for cutting straw.
The length of the blade is at least 30 centimeters, and the blade is both wide and large... At a glance, you can tell that it is a special weapon specially designed to kill people. If it is used to cut off people's heads, as long as the force is used appropriately, the cut will be accurate.
"snort……!"
Qingden snorted coldly, turned Akutsu's sickle to the side with delicate skills, then adjusted the direction of the blade, and slashed at Akutsu for the second time.
Akutsu's sword skills are quite good.
Qingteng made several chops, but Akutsu took them all accurately with his sickle.
But fighting Qingdeng... is obviously "using one's own shortcomings to attack others' strengths."
Sooner or later, a white light suddenly flashed in the darkness, and the ghosts and gods that made a sound in the wind swept towards me from bottom to top.
This time, Akutsu's defense was half a step too late.
clang!
Akutsu, who was unable to successfully digest the huge force transmitted back to his palms along the handle of the knife, staggered back two steps while holding the knocked back sickle.
The victory has been decided.
Qingden quickly and accurately grasped this precious fighter opportunity that could decide the battle situation in one go.
The sword shines brightly.
With a stab from the middle, with the force of a white rainbow piercing the sun, it swept towards Akutsu, who had the door wide open, and towards his neck.
The momentum looked very strong, but in reality Qingden had restrained a lot of strength.
Qingteng's plan was to stop Akutsu with the tip of the sword firmly in front of his throat, but he didn't want to kill him.
The reason for this was not only because there were many things to ask them and they needed to be kept alive, but also because during the battle just now, Akutsu did not think about killing him.
Although Akutsu had just fought hard and the attack was quite fierce, Qingden clearly felt that there was no murderous intention wrapped around his scythe.
Many attacks deliberately avoided Qingdeng's vital points.
This made Qingdeng even more suspicious of the identity of this group of people.
Is he a lunatic who comes to passersby late at night to test his knife?
Or... people from a certain force that is completely different from the "anti-barbarian faction"...?
At this time, seeing that the crisis was approaching, Akutsu finally stopped holding on to his weapon.
He released the weapon in his hand in time and quickly retreated, escaping from Qingdeng's sword in a slightly embarrassed manner.
Qingdeng originally wanted to pursue him.
Suddenly, a white blade suddenly appeared in the corner of his left eye.
This white blade suddenly appeared... and struck Qingdeng's lower body!
Qingdeng, who had to give up the pursuit due to the sudden attack, performed two consecutive backflips and leaped several meters away.
When his feet stood firmly on the ground again, Qingdeng stabilized the Dingguishen in front of him again while looking forward intently.
I saw Ichinose, Ebina, and the young man wearing a macaque mask who had been standing quietly watching the battle, all with swords in their hands, forming a wall of people, blocking the way between Aoto and Akutsu.
between.
The person who attacked Aonto just now was none other than Ichinose.
The sudden intervention of Ichinose and others in the battle forced the battle between Ayoto and Akutsu to be temporarily suspended.
The system that determined that the fight between the two was over was now in operation:
[Ding! Talent scanned]
[Successfully copied talent: "Water Body"]
[Talent introduction: Body coordination is better than ordinary people]
A happy event comes unexpectedly.
There is another new talent that is quite useful from the content introduction.
However, Qingdeng has long been accustomed to the existence of the system, so his current state of mind has not been affected by the new powerful talent, and his face remains calm.
"That's it!" Ebina looked at Aitobo in front of him, then turned his face and glanced at Akutsu, who had lost his weapon and was in an extremely embarrassing posture, "Akutsu, how is it? You have seen Nioh's strength as you wished.
, are you having fun?"
"..." Akutsu stared deeply at Qingden with eyes flashing with complex emotions.
If the battle between him and Aomori was a life-or-death battle...if Ichinose and others had not rescued him in time...then he would be a dead body now.
Although the fingers of both hands pinched repeatedly out of reluctance, he finally chose to slowly lower his arms, showing that he had given up.
However, he still made a "tsk" sound on his lips and smacked his lips forcefully, his tone full of depression.
"……Wonderful."
Suddenly, Ichinose, standing in the middle of the wall of people, spoke.
He stood casually, with the hand holding the knife hanging naturally by his side, and spoke slowly in a calm tone.
"After realizing that the sickle and the copper splitter that can attack alternately are a big trouble, I immediately used the wakizashi to block the copper splitter action... a wonderful on-the-spot reaction."
"I originally thought that among your various achievements, there must be a lot of bragging... Now it seems that I am ignorant."
After saying this, Ichinose bowed slightly and bowed to Aomori in a very humble manner.
"Your Majesty Niou, please allow me to apologize to you."
"Although Akutsu suddenly attacked you... he had no ill intentions."
"I think you should be aware of this."
"Relying on your strong strength and proud achievements, you have recently become a famous celebrity in Edo. As a result, many of my compatriots who aspire to achieve higher and higher achievements in martial arts are very impressed by your skills.
interest."
"Even I... am like this."
"I apologize if I have disturbed you."
"..." Faced with Ichinose's apology, Aoto remained silent.
Wolf-like eyes swept across the faces of Akutsu and others along the blade of the ghost-fixing blade.
"You... just said that you are not patriots against the foreigners. Then who are you?"
After asking, Aomori silently tensed up the muscles and nerves in his body, ready to fight Ichinose and others at any time, and to be prepared to deal with any emergencies.
The reaction of this group of people was too calm, and Qing Deng could not help but be careless.
They knew that he was Niou who had recently become famous through his force and achievements, and that he had also shown his strength in the battle with Akutsu just now. However, this group of people remained calm one after another, as if they did not take him seriously at all.
Something's going on.
Qingdeng couldn't help but wonder if they had some trump card or backhand.
While quietly preparing for battle, Qingdeng was murmuring in his heart——
The name Ichinose Tsuyoshi called Akutsu... made him very concerned.
From the interaction between Ichinose and Akutsu, it is not difficult to see that these two people should have a superior-subordinate relationship.
As a result, Ichinose did not call Akutsu a "subordinate", but called him a "comatriot" with equal status...
Qingdeng wanted to know the true identity of these people more and more.
"What kind of 'person'...hehe...hehehe..."
Ichinose held his lower back with both hands, lowered his head and upper body, and chuckled "hehehehe".
Look at his appearance...it feels like Qingdeng just said something that made people laugh.
Just when Ichinose, who was laughing so happily, seemed to want to say something——
Click, click, click...
From the southeast and northeast street intersections, the sound of dense footsteps suddenly came.
Along with the footsteps, there was also the sound of "clacking" metal utensils repeatedly colliding with other objects.
"This movement..." Ichinose raised his head and looked in the direction of the footsteps, "The troublesome person is coming..."
"Mr. Ichinose, Mr. Ebina." The young man wearing the "macaque mask" said, "We have to retreat."
"Yes, I know." Ichinose nodded...then withdrew his gaze and looked at Aomori again, "Your Majesty Nioh, I'm sorry. If there is a chance later, I will tell you who we are."
"Until you gain our complete trust, you cannot be allowed to 'see' our 'true face' hidden in the shadows."
"Let's meet again if we are destined."
Seeing Ichinose and others trying to run away, Aomori subconsciously wanted to stop them and then took steps to chase them.
As a result... he suddenly saw two middle-aged men, Ichinose and Ebina, putting their hands into the lapels of their clothes, and each took out a... revolver!
Click - the metal sound of holding the muzzle steady and hitting the hammer is very crisp... But for Qingdeng, he has no time to savor this extremely pleasant sound for gun enthusiasts.
He finally understood why Ichinose and others had been so calm in their confrontation with him...
boom!
boom!
Ichinose and Ebina each fired a shot at Aoto's feet.
Before the bullet could fly out, Qingdeng had already rolled to the right and hid behind a big tree not far away.
Using revolvers as cover, the group of people withdrew towards a certain dark alley with quick but orderly movements.
Before Akutsu left, he did not forget to recover his scythe that fell on the ground.
Qingdeng tried to run out of the bunker and chase them...but the surrounding terrain was really too open, and there were less than 5 bunkers available.
Whenever Aoto wants to poke his head in, Ichinose and Ebina at the back will immediately point their black guns at Aoto like cats smelling fishy smell, suppressing Aoto with "dimensionality reduction strike" style firepower.
The two men's marksmanship was very accurate, and they could hit Qingdeng's feet accurately every time.
The meaning of the warning was obvious - they just wanted to force Qingdeng back and prevent Qingdeng from chasing them.
Qingdeng didn't dare to bet that their marksmanship would always be so accurate...and God knew if they would suddenly change their minds after he insisted on chasing him, and no longer aim at his feet, but would raise the muzzle of their guns.
One inch higher and started to aim at his chest...
Cutting bullets with a knife... This magical skill was too early for Qingdeng. He couldn't even see clearly the flight path of the bullet.
One day, when Qingdeng relies on talent fusion and improves the level of "Eagle Eye", he will be able to smash the flying bullets into pieces.
After the figures of this group of mysterious people disappeared into the shadows of the alley, a large number of people wearing black kimonos appeared at the two intersections where the sound of dense footsteps could be heard.
Looking at the uniform black attire of this group of people, Qingden murmured:
"Fire pays thieves...?"
Black clothes and black hakama... the fire-stricken thief changed his iconic uniform.
Qingteng, who was not very familiar with Fire Fighting Thieves Kai, didn't know which division was coming.
All we know is that they are definitely a division composed of the advanced iron artillery group - because more than half of them are holding matchlock guns with slightly mottled shells.
Not a moment later, these gangs of thieves and reformed officials suddenly appeared and surrounded Qingdeng three times inside and three times outside.
Then, the officers blocking Qingdeng separated to the left and right sides - a young man about 25 years old, holding the saber on his waist, walked straight along this separate road to Qingdeng.
In front of the board.
"Oh~~Isn't this Niou?"
The tone of the young man's speech was very strange...the sounds at the end of each sentence were very long. He seemed confused and lazy.
This way of speaking gives people a sense of being careless and unreliable.
I saw him using a slightly exaggerated expression, sighing "He is the King~~", then turned his head and looked around, and said:
"Nioh, as of now, there should be other people here~~ Do you know where those people have gone?"
Being recognized by someone he has never met or recognized... This kind of thing happens quite often recently, so Qingdeng is not surprised that the young man recognized him.
Qingdeng thought: He currently has no reason to protect those mysterious people. So after hearing the young man's question, Qingdeng quickly answered:
"If I am chasing some suspicious men wearing masks, then they fled in that direction. Be careful, they are carrying at least 2 left... 2 wheel-type Western muskets."
"..." The young man glanced at the direction pointed by Qingto and said, "We are going in the direction of Aoki Town~~"
"Changdao, you lead people to chase~~"
"I will lend you Mikura, Matsumoto, and Ozawa~~"
"Have you heard what Ni-oh said? Those people are carrying Western muskets. The gunfire we just heard was probably their work. If you encounter them, remember not to attack them rashly~~"
"yes!"
A strong man in his early 30s, with a very strong face and figure, responded loudly and strode out of the queue.
After quickly gathering more than ten people, he rushed headlong into the dark alley where Ichinose and others had just fled.
As this strong man, whom the youth called Long Dao, led most of the people away from this place, the river bank that had just become "busy" suddenly became empty and deserted again.
“Obviously we arrived as quickly as possible, but we were still half a step late. It’s really depressing~~”
The young man who stayed on the river bank put his hands on his hips and glanced around the circle again... and then slowly turned his gaze back to Qingdeng.
"Nioh, you don't have anything important to do in the future, right? Can you please cooperate with our investigation now? I have some simple questions to ask you."
After finishing speaking, the young man seemed to suddenly think of something, and his body froze slightly.
"Oops~ I suddenly realized that I seem to have forgotten to introduce myself... I'm so embarrassed. I'm so embarrassed~~"
After letting out a few self-deprecating laughs, the young man put down his hands on his hips and straightened his waist——
"I'm the leader of the Huofu Thieves Reform Division 1 and the leader of the 9th Division of the Advanced Iron Cannon Division: My grandson Chutaro, please give me your advice~~"
——My grandson Chutaro?
When he heard this very strange surname, which was particularly easy to remember, Qingden's eyes suddenly widened in surprise.
——I met a celebrity...
Qingdeng glanced unconsciously and carefully looked at the official celebrity in front of him from head to toe.
As for who my grandson Chutaro is... I can describe him in one simple sentence: a rare genius detective!
Although from a functional point of view, the Huo Fu Thief Kai is the same as the "Sanchai" of the Enforcement Station, and both belong to the "police system", but more than half of the officers in the Huo Fu Thief Kai are not very professional in detecting crimes.
This is as it should be - almost all members of the Fire Bandits Kai are served by soldiers from the Vanguard Bow Team and the Vanguard Iron Cannon Team.
Let soldiers whose main job is fighting become part-time policemen... Under such circumstances, the mainstream case-handling style that led to the reform of Huo Fu Thief is to "make miracles happen with great force" - when you encounter a suspect, you will be punished without any explanation!
Even innocent people were forced to admit their guilt.
This is also one of the main reasons why Huo Fu Thieves Gai's popularity among the people has not been very high, and people are always frightened and frightened when mentioning Huo Fu Thieves Gai.
In such a "chaotic group", my grandson Chutaro, who does not rely on torture to extract confessions, but relies on collecting evidence and reasoning to investigate cases, is like a "white lotus that emerges from the mud but remains unstained."
Relying on his outstanding mind and extraordinary reasoning ability, my grandson Chutaro has an astonishingly high crime solving rate and extremely proud achievements.
He has solved many major and difficult cases, including many unsolved cases where months or even years have passed since the crime occurred, and others thought it was impossible to find the murderer.
In this era where there are no convenient technological products such as surveillance and big data, nor any advanced criminal forensics technology, it is not an exaggeration to call him a "genius" for being able to solve so many major cases...
