My personal opinion on Gensokyo

"perhaps!"

"I want to go home!!!"

Later, seeing this scene, the taxi driver was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat and asked with difficulty.

"Hey, um, sir, is that really a gorilla? It looks like the mentally ill person being escorted is having a seizure, and it seems quite serious..."

"Calm down, Mr. Driver."

Hearing this, Shang Yang explained in a calm tone.

"That's just because the gorilla hasn't had a banana in over a year and it's gone berserk."

"Uh……"

After hearing Shang Yang's explanation, the driver wiped his sweat and then devoted himself to driving. However, an unexpected situation scared the taxi driver to death in an instant.

Bah!

Accompanied by a gunshot, a pistol bullet shattered the front window of the taxi.

The taxi driver, frightened by this sudden situation, subconsciously turned the steering wheel to the side of the road, and the taxi crashed heavily into the guardrail of the overpass.

Bang! ! !

"As expected of the Police Chief."

Shang Yang glanced at the smoking bullet that was pinched between his index and middle fingers, and exclaimed in admiration as he retracted his left arm, which had been used to hold Ai and Kaguya to prevent them from being hit by the impact.

"However, for the Edo Metropolitan Police Department Chief, it was only natural that this level of tracking would be discovered, especially at such a critical moment."

Then, Shang Yang casually pushed open the car door that was slightly deformed due to the collision, and got out of the taxi with Ai and Kaguya, which had been completely deformed after hitting the guardrail of the overpass.

Then, the young businessman with gray and shaggy hair took two steps forward, took out a paper bag from his pocket, reached through the car window, and casually put the money, enough to buy another good car, into the pocket of the taxi driver who had fainted from excessive fright. He shrugged his shoulders and apologized.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Driver, I scared you."

"Huh... I wanted to come and watch the show, but I didn't expect to be excluded all of a sudden."

Looking at the police car that was already driving away, and the increasing number of vehicles that had to stop urgently because the taxi was blocking the middle of the road, Kaguya sighed in disappointment, turned around and asked.

"My dear husband, should we give up?"

"There's no point in chasing it any further."

Upon hearing this, Shang Yang made the decision without hesitation, and then casually threw the bullet held between his index and middle fingers off the high bridge, into the river below.

"And it will cause trouble for others, so let's stop here. Um, by the way, Princess, how about this, Ai and I will accompany you to Akihabara today."

"Wow! My husband is the tallest!"

As a result, Shang Yang, who had planned to watch from close up how Kondo Isao and Matsudaira Katakuri Tiger arrived at the summoning location despite encountering constant problems along the way, gave up the idea of ​​continuing to chase them because he was noticed by Matsudaira Katakuri Tiger and Shang Yang did not want to get involved.

Then, Matsudaira Katakuri Tiger, who had already fallen into a chaotic state, shot up the truck of the useless uncle Hasegawa Taizo who was shot innocently. At the same time, under the interference of Kondo Isao and the short-sighted ninja Sarutobi Ayame he found, he knocked away Katsura's (Katsura Kotaro) pet Elizabeth and was chased by Katsura.

In order to get rid of Katsura, Kondo Isao and Matsudaira Katakuri Tora bumped into a telephone pole again and had to switch to a shared bicycle. They were frightened by the aura of Granny Tose who was out shopping, and then threatened a certain idiot Prince Tianren, stole his bike, and sped away.

Afterwards, Kondo Isao and Matsudaira Katakuri Tiger met Shimura Shinpachi and Shinpachi's sister Shimura Tae who were also out shopping. Kondo Isao tried to strike up a conversation with them, but was beaten half to death by the powerful Tae.

Kondo Isao finally exploded, pulling a small cart, carrying Matsudaira Katakuri Tiger and Sarutobi Ayame all the way, but was hit by a bomb from Katsura who was seeking revenge for Elizabeth. In the end, when the three arrived at the summons location, they were already in a state of disarray...

Just as Shang Yang judged, the "Tendoushu" who summoned the two did not take any action against the Shinsengumi, but only warned them.

The waves caused by the "Purgatory Gate" incident gradually disappeared completely among the upper echelons of the shogunate and in rumors among the people, and were almost no longer mentioned by anyone. The Shinsengumi, which was not affected in any real sense, did not conduct a surprise inspection of Kabukicho as Hijikata Toshiro said. This incident was merely recorded in the Shinsengumi's file room as a case, no different from any other case.

One day at noon a month later, in a Western restaurant not far from Kabukicho.

"so what?"

With her arms folded across her chest, Miss Shana stared expressionlessly at the gray-haired young man sitting opposite her, who was concentrating on flipping through the menu, and asked calmly.

"Why did you suddenly think of treating me to a meal alone? Is there something troublesome that you need my help with?"

"Don't worry, I won't treat others to a banquet only when I need them."

Upon hearing this, Shang Yang continued to browse the menu while answering casually.

"I just wanted to go out with you to eat something."

"Humph……"

Hearing Shang Yang's words, Shana snorted and turned her face away awkwardly.

"Don't think I'll be happy if you say that..."

"Yes Yes……"

Upon hearing this, Shang Yang, who had been with this arrogant girl in front of him for hundreds of years and had long anticipated her reaction, responded casually.

"If I had any trouble that I needed Shana's help with, why would I bother inviting you to dinner? I could just buy you some melon buns."

"Well."

Hearing this, Shana immediately glared at him in dissatisfaction and retorted.

"Don't talk like I'm only worth some melon buns."

"Oh?"

Hearing Shana's dissatisfied remarks, Shang Yang raised his head and looked at Shana with amusement.

"Really not tempted?"

"Isn't that a matter of course?"

Shana hummed again, still with her arms crossed over her chest, her tone matter-of-fact.

"Besides, how could I be easily bribed by Honeydew Melon Bag..."

Before she could finish her words, the petite black-haired girl's attention was attracted by the unopened melon bag that the young man took out from his raised right hand, and she even forgot to say anything.

The moment she saw the melon buns, the sweet and sweet memories of the melon buns filled Miss Shana's thoughts.

"Well……"

"This isn't convincing at all, Miss Shana."

Seeing the girl's intoxicated look, Shang Yang shrugged.

"It seems that if I want to bribe you, I won't even need some melon buns. One is enough... Shana! Calm down!"

"Shang... Yang..."②;⒐S started the ninth and eighth rounds of the wheel!"

She gritted her teeth and pronounced the young man's name, and a big crossroads appeared on Miss Shana's forehead.

Raising her clenched fists, Shana suddenly stood up from her seat and rushed towards Shang Yang, who was sweating profusely.

Catching the young man, the petite black-haired girl just started hitting him randomly with her fists.

"I'll give you the thumbs-down! I'll give you the thumbs-down! I'll give you the thumbs-down! Go die a hundred times!"

"Well, then, the two guests..."

Looking at the two guys fighting in front of him, the waiter who came over forced a smile.

"If you do this, it will be very disturbing to other guests..."

After a while...

Having let out a lot of anger, Shana sat back at the seat opposite, glared at Shang Yang who was laughing dryly again, then picked up the melon bag, tore open the package with a "swish", and bit into the melon bag fiercely.

⑥ The way Yin Qi g Yi 鸸〝 eight ? 罒四j岜 ? Yue Yi looked like she was not eating a melon bun, but like a carnivore biting its prey.

Aaaaaah! Aaaaah!

Seeing Shana's angry look, Shang Yang shrugged helplessly, raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and gave instructions to the waiter who came over.

"Please give us one Black Forest cake, two tiramisu, and two cups of coffee, just regular coffee."

"One Black Forest cake, two tiramisu, and two cups of coffee, right?"

After writing these down, the waiter closed the notebook and bowed slightly.

"Please wait a moment, both of you."

"So, don't worry."

After watching the waiter leave, Shang Yang turned around and explained to Shana seriously.

"I really just want to be alone with you."

"Well……"

Although she knew that Shang Yang had deliberately said something like "let's be alone together", Miss Shana still blushed slightly, turned her little face away, and changed the subject in an awkward tone.

"You seem quite familiar with Western desserts..."

"Actually, I'm not familiar with it. The only two Western pastries I know of are tiramisu and Black Forest cake."

Hearing this, Shang Yang explained casually.

"If it's oriental pastries, I can tell you a lot."

While Shang Yang and Shana were chatting, with the sound of the automatic door opening, a young man with short chestnut hair and a young woman with the same long chestnut hair walked into the Western restaurant together.

Seeing these two people, Shang Yang and Shana were both stunned, and then their eyes met.

Then, the young man and the girl nodded gently at the same time.

The people who came were the captain of the Shinsengumi's first squad, Okita Sougo, the Shinsengumi's number one kendo master, and Okita Sougo's biological sister, Okita Mitsuha, who had been living in the countryside.

Volume 4, Edo Chronicles: Chapter 209: The Okita Siblings

"Please sit here, sister."

Walking to the seats separated by a wall from where Shang Yang and Shana were sitting, Sougo Okita enthusiastically invited his sister to sit down, as if this was not a Western restaurant but his own home.

Likewise, because his attention was focused on his sister, Okita Sougo didn't notice that the young man and girl he had met several times were sitting next to them.

"What's going on here?"

Seeing the brother and sister Okita Sougo and Okita Mitsuha sitting down, Shana swallowed the last bite of the melon bun, leaned forward with her petite upper body, and asked Shang Yang quietly.

"There's a long time between the Purgatory Gate Arc and the Okita Mitsuha Arc in the manga. How come Okita-san is in Edo now?"

"The time when each story takes place does not necessarily need to follow the order of the comics, and relatively independent events do not necessarily need to occur at a specific time."

Shang Yang also answered quietly.

"Also, this could be related to the plot changes we brought about. Let's keep quiet and determine if the plot has changed."

Hearing Shang Yang's words, Shana nodded slightly and responded quietly.

"Ah."

After his sister Okita Mitsuha sat down, Okita Sougo sat opposite her a little stiffly, like a student facing a teacher, and asked with concern.

"So, sister, are you coming to Edo this time to say hello to your husband's family?"

"Well, I'll probably stay in Edo for a while."

Hearing this, a faint smile appeared on Okita Mitsuha's slightly pale face, and she answered in a soft and gentle voice.

"During this period, you can meet with Mr. Xiao anytime."

"Huh, is that true?"

Hearing his sister's words, the captain of the Shinsengumi's First Division actually blushed slightly and answered happily in a childish tone.

"I'm really happy."

"Ah."

Seeing her brother's reaction, Okita Mitsuha also showed a gentle smile, like a mother seeing her child acting coquettishly.

"I'm just as happy."

Hearing this, Okita Sougo also spoke happily with a tone of longing.

"Then, after my sister gets married and moves to Edo, we'll be able to see each other more often."

"Well, that's right."
