However, Gao Yuan had no time to pay attention to the red leaves of Ooka that appeared at this moment, because the girl in front of him had already waved his bamboo sword and struck at him.
In an instant, the girl stepped forward with the knife in front of Gao Yuan, slashed it down, and struck Gao Yuan's head.
Although it's just a bamboo sword, looking at this posture, getting hit is no small matter.
Without hesitation, Gao Yuan faced the girl, but took two steps back slightly. After opening some distance, Gao Yuan stretched out his hands and palms. With quick eyes and quick hands, he clasped his palms together, clamped the bamboo knife that was coming, and then used the knife forcefully.
Twisting in the horizontal direction, Gao Yuan took advantage of the situation and moved his position from directly in front of the girl to to the side and in front.
Immediately after taking a step forward, Gao Yuan approached the girl's body, still holding the bamboo knife with both hands, but Gao Yuan's elbow took advantage of the situation and hit the girl's hands holding the bamboo knife.
This time was different from when facing Reiichi Sakuraba. The girl held the knife in her hand very tightly. She couldn't let go of it just by twisting the blade. So, subconsciously, Gao Yuan made this move by elbowing the opponent holding the knife.
Hand movements.
"'The real sword is taken with a bare blade'?"
Seeing the opponent's immediate reaction to her offensive, the girl was slightly surprised and said, but at the same time, the girl had already reacted, raised her foot and kicked Gao Yuan in the abdomen, who was already close.
"Miss Hongye, what happened?"
At this time, Iori Wuga, who had curly black hair, had just walked up to Ooka Momiji from behind. Seeing that she had not gotten in the car, he asked doubtfully, and then he saw Takato and the girl who were fighting at the moment.
"That person, I remember, is Master Hattori's friend, right?"
Seeing Takato, Iori Muga said subconsciously, and upon hearing this, Ooka Momiji realized something was wrong and quickly shouted:
"Zhu Yu, you are wrong! He is not a bad person!"
However, it was too late for this cry. The girl's kick had already been kicked out. Gao Yuan did not expect that the other party would react so quickly. He had no time to dodge, so he could only receive the kick firmly.
Feeling pain in his abdomen, Gao Yuan instinctively began to retreat, but his hands that were originally holding the blade of the knife with his palms now subconsciously held the blade - the bamboo knife, which was not a real knife after all.
After hearing Ooka Momiji's words, the girl couldn't help but froze for a moment after kicking her. She didn't make any further movements, but she still held the bamboo sword tightly in her hand. As a result, Gao Yuan who was holding the blade stepped back. Due to the weight of the two of them,
The gap caused the girl's body to be pulled forward by Gao Yuan, causing the girl's center of gravity to become unstable and she fell forward——
"Why?"
The girl's originally arrogant expression finally revealed a trace of panic.
But similarly, because the girl suddenly leaned forward, the pulling force on the blade in Gao Yuan's hand suddenly disappeared. What was originally just a retreat trend made Gao Yuan fall backwards with the inertia.
As a result, Gao Yuan fell to the ground with his back, and the girl fell forward, but ended up falling into Gao Yuan's arms. However, because Gao Yuan was at the bottom, the girl was not hurt, so she got up immediately, but Gao Yuan
Not so lucky.
"it hurts."
Just as he was about to struggle to get up, Gao Yuan was helpless.
"Are you OK."
Iori Wuga stepped forward at this time, stretched out his hand to hold Gao Yuan, and asked.
"fine."
After getting up with the help of Iori Muga, Takato said.
"Hongye, you said he's not a bad person, but I saw he was sneaking around your car just now."
The girl said a little unconvinced.
"about this point……"
Ooka Hongye didn't know how to answer, so he walked up to Gao Yuan and said hello politely:
"Hello, my name is Ooka Momiji. Are you a friend of Hattori Heiji?"
"Oh, hello, Miss Ooka. My name is Akechi Takato, and I am indeed friends with Hattori Heiji."
Takato also explained politely, "Because I was looking for the person who sent flowers to Hattori-san yesterday, so I found this place. So, the person who sent flowers yesterday was Miss Ooka? In other words, Miss Ooka
Are you an acquaintance of Hattori-san?"
"Well, that's what happened."
Ooka Momiji said, "But, did Heiji ask Mr. Akechi to investigate this matter?"
Suddenly concerned, Ooka Momiji asked.
"No... I'm just curious as to why someone sent flowers to Hattori-san but didn't show up."
Gao Yuan replied.
"That's right."
Ooka Momiji smiled and said, "Then, Mr. Akechi, can you keep it a secret for me? Don't tell Heiji about this for the time being."
"That's okay."
Gao Yuan said, without asking any more questions about it, but looked at the girl holding the bamboo sword - it really looked a bit like Miyano Shiho at this age in the original photo.
"Um, let me take the liberty to ask, this...student..."
"Oh, her name is Tie Zhuyu, she is my friend."
Ooka Hongye introduced, but Tie Zhuyu glanced at Gao Yuan and immediately turned away arrogantly, as if he didn't want to talk to Gao Yuan. Seeing this, Ooka Hongye smiled:
"Don't worry, Mr. Mingzhi, Zhu Yu has such a character. She should have regarded you, Ming Mingzhi, as a bad person just now. For the misunderstanding just now, I apologize to you on Zhu Yu's behalf."
Saying that, Ooka Hongye bowed slightly towards Gao Yuan.
"No, Miss Ooka is too polite."
Bowing in return, Gao Yuan said, "But, is that all?"
"Hey? What do you mean?"
Ooka Momiji asked in confusion.
"'You showed up!', if I remember correctly, that's what Miss Tie said before taking action."
Gao Yuan looked at Tie Zhuyu and said.
"So what?"
Tie Zhuyu said impatiently.
"Because, what Miss Tie said at that time was like knowing someone would appear here in advance."
Gao Yuan said, "If you understand it this way, there should be no problem."
As he spoke, he looked at the three people around him, waiting for their responses.
But after Gao Yuan finished speaking, the atmosphere here became a little subtle. Tie Zhuyu and Ooka Hongye looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
"Miss Hongye, do you want to tell him?"
At this time, Iori Muga leaned close to Ooka Momiji's ear and asked in a low voice.
"However, it is just speculation at the moment. Just treat irrelevant personnel like this..."
Ooka Hongye also said softly.
"It doesn't matter."
Iori Muga said, "If I remember correctly, Master Hattori seemed to call him 'Detective Brother', so he should be a detective. If a detective helps, we may be able to further confirm this matter."
"Forget it, let me take care of this matter."
Tie Zhuyu had already put the wooden sword back into his sword bag, hugged the sword bag, walked up to Gao Yuan and said.
"Because recently, it seems like someone is following me."
