Zuocun sat on a thick branch and looked at the residence below.
Instead of carrying the crane and pheasant feathers whom he relied on to become famous, he only brought the dagger "Ji Feng" he got from Masahiro Abe a few years ago.
It's the end of January now.
Zuocun formulated a precise plan for this assassination.
He was dressed in black and was waiting for the opportunity.
......
"Yoshida Toyo's daily routine is very regular." Ryuma looked into Zuomura's eyes, "I spent money to bribe a Yoshida Toyo's servant and studied his daily routine."
"Yoshida Toyo has a day off every month. He will not pay attention to any official duties on this day, but will have two behaviors."
"The first type is to stay at home all day and read Western books."
"The other way is to travel with your family."
"I understand." Zuocun nodded, "I am good at killing this person, but how to quickly fake the scene and leave after killing, and not be recognized is very important."
Although Zuocun is not from Tosa, he has a very good relationship with Tosa patriots like Ryuma Sakamoto and Ruishan Takeshi. If Zuocun's identity is exposed, it will cause great trouble to Tosa King Party.
After all, Yoshida Toyo is a talent that the vassal lord valued.
However, Yoshida Toyo's existence has inevitably become a stumbling block for Zuocun, Ryuma, Takeshi and others to advance.
With this person's constraints, all actions of the Royal Party in Tosa will be hindered.
Zuomura did not think about convincing Yoshida Toyo or something, because everyone could see that Yoshida Toyo was supported by the vassal lord, and such a person would not be a supporter of the royal party.
"I'll help you." Izo smiled, "When I didn't leave Tosa in my early years, I knew something about Yoshida Toyo. I'll leave it to me when I found Yoshida Toyo's mortal enemy."
"I'm grateful." Zuomura and Izo fisted, "Responsively, I will try my best to fake the scene of the vendetta."
"Then, you go and do the arrangement first. I believe this information is enough."
Zuocun nodded with a smile.
.........
"Tomorrow is Yoshida Toyo's holiday." Zuomura jumped off the tree and said to the other two people.
"Sir, I am grateful for this opportunity... I think I can't bear to say." A strange man who looked a little hunched.
The man's name is Koike Ichimasa.
This era is chaotic, and the chaotic background is enough to cover up many unknown zz persecutions.
Koike Ichimasa is one of the many darknesses that have been covered up.
"Sir, after I commit suicide... please take good care of my daughter." Koichi Ichimasa said solemnly to Zuocunto.
"...Natural." Zuocun nodded.
He is in a heavy mood now.
Koike Ichimasa is a victim of Yoshida Toyo, and isn’t he a victim of Anno Zuomura?
But this is zz's struggle, and countless people will become victims in the struggle.
Without too much trouble, Zuomura turned his head and looked at Essumura: "Mr. Okada, you leave first, let Ryuma and Mr. Takeshi prepare for Yoshida Toyo's death tomorrow, and must arrange the follow-up."
"And... take good care of Mr. Koike's daughter."
Yizang nodded silently and left.
Koike Ichimasa stood beside Zuocun with a cold face.
He was once a vassal of the Tosa vassal family and was quite famous, but because he had publicly supported the expulsion of the barbarians, he was targeted by Yoshida Toyo.
As a result, Koike Ichimasa not only lost his identity as a vassal, but was also imprisoned. Even now, his family is left with only himself and his young daughter to survive.
He hated Yoshida Toyo so much that he agreed immediately when Okada Izumi came to him and expressed his intentions.
Just die, as long as you can revenge-
Koike Ichimasa's eyes were flashing with blood.
Zuocun also noticed the state of Koichi Ichimasa and sighed slightly.
Everything I have done now is to avoid tragedies in the future.
Maybe it seems a bit hypocritical, but it is indeed Zuocun’s true thoughts.
It is precisely because Zuocun has witnessed many tragedies in this hell called Matsumo that he does not want more tragedies to happen.
Therefore, he hypnotized himself and told himself that everything he did and all the tragedies promoted by himself were for the sake of no more tragedies in the future.
"Tomorrow morning, I will observe Yoshida Toyo's movements to see if he is taking his family out for a trip or I am studying in my room."
"If he takes his family out for a trip, things will be a little more troublesome."
"I will kill Yoshida Toyo alone or Yoshida Toyo and all the families he took out according to the circumstances."
"If he stays at home, things will be relatively simple, and we just need to find an opportunity to enter his study."
"I understand, Lord Zuocun." Koike Ichimasa held his hand, which was struggling to make a vein burst.
Sighing, Zuomura looked at Yoshida's house: "We now... just need to wait."
......
The next day, in the morning.
Zuocun and Kochi Ichimaru squatted on the top of the tree.
This is a coniferous forest, but neither of them is afraid of the stinging pain of the coniferous forest and stares at Yoshida's bedroom.
"It's out." Zuocun narrowed his eyes.
A man in his thirties walked out of the bedroom and stretched.
He is Yoshida Toyo.
Koike Ichimasa's muscles subconsciously tightened.
This face...
The teeth were clattering, and the eyes seemed to be bleeding.
Yoshida Toyo looked very excited, so he moved his neck and walked to another room, which should have to wash and have breakfast.
"Calm down, Mr. Koike." Zuomura said in a serious tone. "We observe Yoshida Toyo's next move and then make a decision."
"I understand, Lord Zuocun." Kochi also knew that he was a little excited.
After waiting for a while, Yoshida Toyo had no intention of changing clothes and traveling, Zuomura narrowed his eyes.
Yoshida Toyo walked into a room on the side.
“There is...the study room.”
Zuocun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He didn't want to involve too many innocent people.
But if Yoshida Toyo really goes out, he will still choose to kill everyone around Yoshida Toyo.
However, it is indeed the best situation for Yoshida Toyo to avoid traveling.
"We waited for the servant to deliver lunch to Yoshida Toyo, and we would do it." Zuomura glanced at Koike Ichimasa, "At that time, in order not to make a big deal of noise and expose it in advance, I will kill Yoshida Toyo as soon as possible. How to treat the corpse in the future... as you wish."
"...I understand." Koike Ichimasa nodded.
Neither of them mentioned what happened next.
Koike Ichimasa has lost everything, and only his daughter is left behind.
After entrusting his daughter to his former familiar Okada Izusa, after completing his mission...
Will commit suicide.
Chapter completed!
