Chapter 286 Makimura was arrested! (Part 1) [12,000 today]
Fuma walked in front and continued to lead Ogata and Atachi towards the living room of the house.
On the way to the living room, Ogata could see how big a panic Feng Mo had just caused.
Feng Mo just told them: His home is a little dirty.
Recalling what Fuma just said to them, Ogata couldn't help shouting in his heart:
——This place is a little dirty!
The floor was covered with a thick layer of dust, and Ogata was wearing black socks, so it was not obvious how dirty the floor was.
And A-Machi is barefoot, so just looking at the soles of A-Machi's feet can tell how dirty Fuuma's house is.
A-Machi had only taken a few steps into Fuma's home, and his originally clean soles were completely black.
A-Machi does not have flat feet, so the arch of the foot will not touch the ground, so the arch of A-Machi's foot is still clean.
The arches of the feet, which were still clean and white, and the rest of the soles of the feet, which had completely become stained with ink, formed an extremely sharp contrast.
The floor was extremely dirty, and there were all kinds of garbage piled up everywhere in the corridor.
There is so much garbage accumulated in the corridors in some areas that it is impossible to get rid of it.
Because of the accumulation of all kinds of garbage, there is a strange smell in the air.
It's a shame that you can live in such an environment - Ogata really wanted to say this to Fuma, but in the end he resisted the urge.
After finally arriving at the living room of the house, the living room was also extremely messy, with all kinds of garbage piled everywhere.
"Sit down."
Feng Mo took out two relatively clean cushions from the corner of the living room and placed them on one side of the low table in the living room.
"I'll make a pot of tea."
Feng Mo hunched over and walked slowly to the locker placed on the side of the living room.
When he stood on tiptoes to reach the top bucket of the locker, Feng Mo suddenly let out a scream.
The sudden scream of Fuma startled Ogata and Omachi, and they rushed forward and asked anxiously what happened to Fuma.
"It's okay..." Feng Mo's facial features were distorted by pain, "I just accidentally slipped to my waist..."
Feng Mo let out a few wry smiles.
"As people get older, their bodies lose their usefulness..."
"When I was out shopping a few days ago, my waist flashed. Fortunately, I got help from an enthusiastic young man, otherwise I wouldn't know how to get home..."
With the help of Ogata and A-Machi, Fuuma finally took down the tea leaves placed on the top of the locker and made two pots of tea for Ogata and A-Machi.
The cherry blossom cakes that Ogata and Atachi bought as a greeting gift were now placed in a corner of the low table.
Fuma liked the meeting gift given by Ogata and his wife very much and happily accepted it.
"I'm sorry..." Fuuma, who was sitting opposite Ogata and Omachi, said to them in a somewhat apologetic tone, "I don't have anything good to entertain you here, only some old tea from last year. But the cup is
If it’s clean, feel free to drink it.”
"It's okay." Ogata took the lead in picking up the tea cup and taking a sip while asking, "Master Fuuma, does your waist still hurt now?"
"Well, it's much better now." Feng Mo rubbed his lower back, "It was just a slight twist just now, and it's much better after resting for a while."
"Lord Fuuma..." There was a bit of sadness in A-Machi's eyes uncontrollably, "You... have aged a lot... Obviously the last time I saw you, your body was still quite strong..."
Not only Amachi, but also Ogata's face showed a bit of sadness.
The hero dies - this idiom automatically pops up in Ogata's mind.
The 17th generation Fuuma Kotaro, who was once the all-powerful man who could single-handedly turn Shiranui into chaos, has now aged to such an extent that he can even carry tea leaves from a locker to his waist - when he thought of this, Ogami couldn't help but
The heart of the earth is sad.
"Hahaha." Feng Mo chuckled a few times, "Komachi, don't show such an expression, people will always grow old. Although it is very difficult to live alone now, I am quite happy with this kind of ordinary life.
Enjoy it.”
After hearing what Fuuma said, the sad look on A-Machi's face subsided a little.
After picking up the tea cup and taking a few sips of the bitter tea, A-Machi said to Fuma:
"Lord Feng Mo, Ayi and I have something to ask you."
"Oh? What is it? If it is a question that I can answer, I will tell you everything."
Atachi raised his elbow and poked Ogata beside him, signaling Ogata to ask quickly.
However - Ogata ignored Omachi's elbow that was poking him.
After sipping the tea in the cup with a calm expression, he put down the cup and said softly:
"Ask a question or something, don't be in a hurry."
"Before asking questions - Atachi, come and accompany me to do something more important."
After that, Ogata slowly stood up under the suspicious gazes of Atachi and Fuuma...
…
…
"Did you see it?" Lin pointed towards a private house not far away, "That's the home of Master Feng Mo."
Lin was holding a box of cherry blossom cakes in her hand - she had just bought them as a gift for meeting Fuma later.
"Lord." Shimada said softly while looking at the house that Lin just pointed at, "Is that the secluded place of Fuma-sama... It looks very ordinary..."
"It's very ordinary. After all, Mr. Feng Mo is not a very wealthy person... Hmm? Why is the door open?"
When she said, "Master Feng Mo, he is not a very wealthy person," Lin and his party happened to walk to the door of Feng Mo's residence.
Arriving at the gate, Lin and others found that the gate of Feng Mo's mansion was wide open.
"Why don't you close the door..."
While muttering like this, Lin led the three Makimura people towards the door of Fuma Mansion.
When she came to the door, Lin looked into the room and said loudly:
"Excuse me! Is there someone..."
The last word "?" was shocked by the picture that appeared in front of me, and I couldn't help but swallow it back.
In the corridor connected to the entrance of the mansion, Ogata Ittosai, whom he hadn't seen for a while, was lying on the ground and wiping the corridor floor with a rag.
Beside him, a beautiful woman whom he did not recognize was mopping the corridor floor with Ogata.
Although Lin's "Is there anyone here?" she just said was not fully spoken, it still attracted the attention of Ogata and this young woman.
After Ogata and the woman he didn't know both raised their heads and cast doubtful glances at her, the doubtful look in Ogata's eyes instantly turned into a look of astonishment.
"Miss Kinoshita...?"
Although Kinoshita Rin was now dressed in men's clothing, Ogata still recognized her at a glance, as well as Makimura, Asai, and Shimada standing behind her.
…
…
Time goes back to before half a stick of incense——
After slowly standing up, Oubon turned his head and said to Atachi:
"Atachi, come with me to clean up Fuma-sama's house."
After finishing speaking, Ogata didn't wait for Atachi and Fuuma to respond. He stood up directly and walked towards the pile of garbage closest to him. He picked up a torn sack from the garbage and then collected all the garbage nearby.
Stuff it into this sack.
Looking at Ogata who had already started to pack up the trash, A-Machi was stunned for a moment, and then a look of understanding immediately appeared on his face.
"Lord Fuma," A-Machi said sternly to Fuma, "I'll lend you your well."
Without giving Fuma any time to respond, A-Machi quickly stood up and ran towards the well in the yard.
This is not the first time A-Machi has come to Fuma's home, so he still knows something about the structure of Fuma's home.
She knew that there was a well in the yard of Feng Mo's house, and she also knew where the well was located.
After Omachi ran away in a rage, Fuma finally recovered from his shock and said to Ogata:
"Brother Ogata, it doesn't have to be like this. If you are using cleaning for me as a reward for asking me questions, then there is no need for it."
"If you have any questions, just ask. I don't need any reward from you."
"Master Fuuma, you misunderstood." Ogata's hands that were collecting garbage did not stop, "The reason why Amachi and I chose to help you clean is not to use this as a pretense to ask you questions.
The reward is not to please you."
"It's just because-" Ogata turned his head and smiled at Fuma, "I just want to help you clean the house."
"But..." Feng Mo hesitated, "Isn't this too much trouble for you two..."
Ogata glanced at Fuma who looked hesitant, and then said softly:
"...I am a member of the Izumo Hirose Domain. Before I left the domain, I once suffered some injuries due to a duel."
"During the time when I was recovering from my injuries, my brothers and sisters would always come to my house from time to time to help me, an injured person with limited mobility, clean the house."
What Ogata was talking about was exactly what happened after the God Sacrifice Competition ended.
While he was staying at home to recuperate from his injuries, many of his senior brothers and junior brothers always came to visit him from time to time and helped him clean the house when he was unable to move.
"I told them at the time: I would feel embarrassed if you helped me like this."
"And my brothers and sisters answered me this way: It is natural for friends to help each other."
"Master Feng Mo, just think that your two friends are helping you clean the house."
“Friends helping friends clean their house – that’s normal, right?”
After hearing what Ogata said, Fuma was stunned.
After being stunned for a while, a faint smile appeared on Feng Mo's face.
"Since you said so, I can accept your kindness with peace of mind."
Ogata and Atachi have a clear division of labor.
Ogata is responsible for sorting and clearing away the garbage piled up throughout the mansion.
On the other hand, Atachi was responsible for wiping down the dirty mansion with rags.
Since the workload of picking up garbage was much smaller, Ogata quickly cleared away the garbage piled up throughout the mansion.
After cleaning up the garbage in the mansion, Ogata also took a rag and assisted Amachi in wiping the extremely dirty floor of the mansion.
As the two of them worked together to wipe the floor of the corridor connected to the entrance of the mansion, Lin and his party appeared at the entrance of Fuma Residence...
Ogata was neither surprised nor surprised that Lin and his party suddenly appeared in front of him.
What he was "not surprised" about was that Lin and her group would appear in Kyoto.
Ogata had long expected that the people from Calabash House would definitely come to Kyoto.
Calabash House has been investigating "Immortal" for so many years, and it is impossible to let go of this clue of "He Shi and Wa Nao". He will definitely come to Kyoto and look for this pair of masters and disciples like him.
What he was "surprised" about was that Lin and his party actually appeared at the door of Feng Mo's mansion.
…
…
"Hehehe." Fuuma chuckled and handed four teacups filled with hot tea to Lin and his party, "Today is such a good day. Not only Komachi came to see me, but even Xiaolin came to see me.
Already."
"Thank you." Lin, who was usually expressionless, respectfully took the tea from Feng Mo with a smile on her face, "Master Feng Mo, I feel relieved to see that you are still so energetic."
"The spirit is the spirit, but the body is not as good as before." Feng Mo smiled bitterly and shook his head, "When I went shopping a few days ago, my waist flashed. Fortunately, I got the help of an enthusiastic young man, otherwise I wouldn't have known it.
How should I go home..."
After handing these 4 cups of hot tea to Lin and her group, he took out 2 clean teacups and poured hot tea into them.
"Brother Ogata! Komachi! You two should come over and have a rest too!"
Ogata and A-Machi actually happened to be a little tired. After hearing Fuma's words, they did not make any excuses or rejections. They sat around the low table in the center of the living room with Lin and others, sipping and drinking.
Drinking hot tea.
Although the living room of Feng Mo Mansion is not big, everyone present can barely sit down.
The tea in the cup was freshly boiled hot tea. Although it was hot to the taste, it was not completely unpalatable. While sipping the hot tea that Feng Mo made for them, Ogata finally couldn't restrain his doubts and couldn't help but look at it.
Feng Mo asked:
"Lord Feng Mo, do you still know the people from Calabash House?"
"Of course we know each other." Feng Mo smiled and stroked the beard on his chin, "Because Yuan Yi and I have been friends for decades."
"Having a close relationship with Yuan Yi, I naturally know Xiao Lin and the people in Calabash House."
Speaking of this, Lord Fuma cast a slightly doubtful look at Ogata and said:
"Brother Ogata, you actually know about Calabash House. Are you also a friend of Xiaolin and the others?"
Before Ogata had time to respond, Lin on the side blew the hot tea in the cup and said in a calm tone:
"We do know Ogata Ittousai. But I don't know the beautiful woman next to Ogata Ittousai."
As soon as Lin finished speaking, Makimura, who was sitting next to Lin, poked Lin with his elbow:
"My lord, this beautiful woman is the Shiranui-born kunoichi that Mamiya and I told you about before and who was working with us on Butterfly Island - Atachi."
