Chapter 99: I'd rather be a dog of peace than a person in troubled times
"Hi Village, who is this?"
As the logistics staff of Kenshin Himemura, Iizuka looked at Ling Ze with some surprise. He did not expect that there would be others living here besides Kenshin Himemura.
"eyewitness."
Ken Himura was concise and did not explain too much. Now his mood is a little unstable, so he needs to take a good rest and adjust.
"I'll ask you about the aftermath, Mr. Iizuka, I'll take the lead."
Kenshin Himemura bowed to Iizuka, and then he continued to say "Let's go".
"I will investigate his identity as soon as possible."
Iizuka nodded. He could understand that Kenshin Himemura did not kill the witnesses, but his workload increased a little.
Ling Ze still has some impression of Iizuka, the second son. After all, without him, there would be no story behind "Memories".
But Ling Ze did not want to expose the other party's ideas. After all, no matter how you look at it, the confrontation between the Choshu Bible and the Tokugawa Shogunate had nothing to do with him.
Without sufficient interests as a driving force, Ling Ze did not have the need to take the risk to expose Iizuka's identity, which would only add trouble to himself in vain.
The reason why Ling Ze chose to return to the stronghold of the Changzhou vassal with Himemura Kenshin instead of getting rid of them simply was just to make it easier to do it after understanding how to do the [Hidden Mission].
Moreover, if Ling Ze wanted to find Bigu Qingjuro, he could only get where to find it from Himemura Kenshin. After all, if he knew where the hermit lived, he would probably only Himemura Kenshin himself.
"Why are you coming to kill them?"
Following the taciturn Kenshin Hime, Ling Ze began to shake Kenshin Hime, who was not very stable in his mood. This "Badaozhai" was still self-doubted because of Akira Kiyori's death.
But in fact, Ling Ze did not have much touch on the death of Akira Kiyori, because Ling Ze himself was just an innocent passerby involved in their fight.
Akira Kiyori's behavior of trying to get him out is reasonable, which shows that Akira Kiyori's conscience is still not lost.
If he ignored Ling Ze who was involved, then Kenshin Himemura would never have any psychological burden to kill him, nor would he have any self-doubt.
As an innocent person, Ling Ze ran away without turning around, but came forward to save Qingli Mingliang. It was already considered to be the end of his kindness, although Qingli Mingliang died of serious injury in the end.
The battle between them is just a fight for their own justice. If the weak die and the strong live, they can only blame Akira Kiyori's own strength, otherwise the person who dies will be Kenshin Himemura.
As for avenging him, it is just a joke, but it is just a chance encounter. In the face of the possible benefits of the [hidden mission], what can he be considered a Qingli Aoliang? Even the "adoptive father" of Gozchi is not useful when he comes.
"Kyoto Sojido is the main security force of the Tokugawa shogunate in Kyoto. Their existence is not conducive to our activities, and many of their companions were caught and killed by them."
Kenshin Himemura did not hide anything, but told him his reason very directly. After all, this task has been completed and there is no need to keep it confidential.
"I thought you would say it was for the happiness of the people."
Ling Ze continued to bury the heart of Himemura Jianxin, as simple as white paper. Although he had never been so sarcastic, he still noticed the weirdness in Ling Ze's words.
"What? What's the problem?"
Kenshin Himemura continued to ask, today's incident really disturbed his mood, made him shaken his actions, and made him slightly confused.
"You said you killed people for the happiness of the people, but can you really get the happiness you want by killing people?"
Ling Ze began to torture Himemura Kenshin, which made Himemura Kenshin even more confused.
"Every day, people die because of all kinds of things, and I am not trying to kill innocent people indiscriminately."
Kenshin Himemura lowered his eyebrows and he replied in a deep voice, as if he was affirming himself and firming his beliefs, although his words were not convincing.
"Aren't you killing innocent people indiscriminately? But you didn't even do the thing about estimating whether the other party is innocent. Isn't what you do just killing someone by following other people's orders?"
Ling Ze could feel that Kenshin Himemura was very unstable now, although there was no expression on his face.
Kenshin Himemura was silent for a while and seemed very struggling. Ling Ze did not continue to ask him. The two walked to the hidden hotel in Changzhou and stopped. Kenshin Himemura answered Ling Ze's question.
"If you understand the target too much, you will hesitate. For me, killing only requires "it is to change the world" reason."
Kenshin Hiramura is a person who is truly filthy and a very simple person. Everything he does is for this goal.
Although he felt very painful about what he was doing now, this was the only way he wanted to change the world.
That is to use your own blood-stained knife to punish people for heaven and to exchange for a peaceful and prosperous era in which everyone is happy.
In fact, Kenshimi Himemura's position is like the "night attack" of the revolutionary army assassination organization in "Killing! Red Eyes". They are constantly killing those who are blocking the way forward in order to achieve social innovation.
I know that I am trapped in darkness, but I am striving to pursue the light and willing to use my sacrifice to fight for a peaceful and prosperous era for the people of the world.
But by this, Ling Ze had already discovered why he had so many questions about Kenshin Hime, it was entirely because there was a fundamental difference between his personality and Kenshin Hime.
So far, everything Ling Ze did was to get rid of the fate of being controlled by Gozqi. He was unwilling to be a sharp knife wherever Gozqi's finger was stabbed, no matter what Gozqi stabbed for.
But Kenshimi Himemura's behavior was like sending the handle of the knife to someone else's hands, and he willingly obeyed other people's orders.
Although he said he was wielding his sword for a new world and he thought he was doing this, in fact, he was wielding his sword for the desires of others.
Can the Reformers of the Anti-State Realm really create a society where everyone is happy?
This may not necessarily be the final outcome of the Chibao team, which was originally an anti-stolen colleague, proved this. How could the so-called reform patriots represent the people?
Although they shouted the slogan "Equality for all peoples", their essence is the bourgeois revolution. Where did "Equality for all peoples" come from?
These powerful vassals from the southwest are just following the trend of the times and becoming increasingly powerful. They want to overthrow the weak Tokugawa shogunate and take power by themselves.
After the overthrow of the Tokugawa shogunate, although the samurai privileged class gradually disappeared, the vassals led by the Satsuma and the Choshu vassals became a new privileged class again. The world has not changed much, but the people who enjoy privileges have changed.
"But they are all poor people who are surrounded by their own justice and desires."
Ling Ze shook his head and stopped talking. Thinking about it carefully, why isn’t he himself?
