Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

This man, who was transferred from the Yin-Yang Bureau to the Bureau of Investigation and Punishment, was no ordinary person.

With the weather clearing up these past few days, there have been many rumors about him around.

Fujiwara Kaori learned from some of the maids at the mansion that this censor was not inherently bad.

That's enough.

She did look over through the curtain just now.

Because she couldn't openly look at it and risk damaging her reputation, she could only see it vaguely.

She was tall and slender, giving off a vaguely approachable feeling.

I subconsciously felt that it was okay.

However, it is probably not advisable to tell one's uncle, because the official rank of Jianfeiweishi is the fifth rank, which is considered "commonly noble".

They were key nobles in the imperial court.

According to the classification, they were true nobles.

The uncle, who was a low-ranking official of the eighth grade, was not even an aristocrat in essence. Of course, in the eyes of ordinary people, there was no difference between officials.

They belong to the class that can at most swagger around among ordinary people.

It's roughly like a low-level bureaucrat with some power in the modern world who becomes timid and hesitant when encountering someone of higher rank.

In short... this is the person I've decided on.

Day 38 of crossing

Kyosuke Kosaka received a "love letter" early in the morning.

He glanced casually at the waka poems on the blue strip of paper.

Without thinking, I wrote "Smoke locks the pond and willows" on a piece of paper. Let's figure it out. If I can solve it, I'll go and take a look.

Noticing that the woman outside the door, who appeared to be in her mid-twenties, was trembling slightly, Kyosuke Kosaka casually gave the order:

"Let her have a glass of water before she leaves."

"Yes!" Chitanda Eru immediately replied in a clear voice.

Yukinoshita: “…”

At least let me do some work. Planting vegetables at dawn is tiring enough, and I'm being this diligent on top of that.

Nino, Miku, and Satsuki felt like they had become mascots.

It's shameful to just eat and not work.

Kyosuke Kosaka had no time to pay attention to the girls' feelings and went straight out the door.

Yukino quickly helped Kousaka Kyosuke get his shoes this time.

The three identical beautiful girls all wore expressions of frustration.

Kyosuke Kousaka is acting strangely now. Have you guys gotten involved?

At a glance, he caught a glimpse of Yukinoshita Koki clenching her fist and excitedly shaking it...

A moment later, Kyosuke Kosaka went to work with mixed feelings.

Monsters have appeared in the area where the lowly people used to live, and they've been eating people. He has to make a move.

Upon leaving, Kousaka Kyosuke raised his hand and waved to signal to the noble lady's maid not to stand on ceremony before departing.

Before leaving, I saw that the maid had a slender figure, straight and long legs, and a healthy body that exuded youthful energy, even though she was quite old.

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

No, he's actually older.

Kyosuke Kousaka finally realized!

17. Inhuman Gathering Place / Everything is difficult at the beginning / Is it good?

Spending a lot of time with pretty girls really does make you look younger.

Kousaka Kyosuke sighed.

With mixed feelings, I went to the office of the Inspectorate of Illegal Activities.

After organizing his men, he led a group of firefighters to the main streets and alleys of Ukyo to begin investigating the situation.

The capital city of Kyoto was modeled after the neighborhood system of the Tang Dynasty.

The building is square in shape, with nine neatly arranged streets running from south to north.

The northern area, which is the area of ​​the imperial palace, means that the closer one is to the central authority, the closer one is to the north.

The construction layout is becoming more and more complete, and the environment is better than usual.

Because the nobles and officials were all located here.

Once you reach the Seven Main Roads, you'll find that the estate owned by Kyosuke Kosaka is roughly located in this area.

Further south, the surrounding environment gets worse, moving from the Eighth Street Fourth Block, the Ninth Street Third Block, and the Ninth Street Fourth Block.

The lowest of the low, non-humans, are all concentrated here.

"hiss……"

A wave of unbearable stench hit us.

The firefighters couldn't help but cover their noses.

The pampered fire chiefs looked like they were about to vomit.

Kyosuke Kosaka remained expressionless, glanced around, and simply gave the order:

“Bring their leader here.”

"Go quickly! Go quickly!" the fire chief hurriedly ordered his fire soldiers.

About a quarter of an hour.

Two people arrived.

One was a tall, middle-aged man who was about 190 centimeters tall.

One was a short, blond boy who was probably only 160 centimeters tall.

The latter, Kyosuke Kousaka, had met.

They were villagers who were driven out of Qianfan Manor.

His name is Mikey?

Kyosuke Kosaka didn't want to argue about it.

"No odors are allowed here. I will be back in three days. Do you understand?"

"...Yes, sir."

Without much communication, the two immediately bowed their heads in agreement upon hearing the order.

Kyosuke Kosaka then asked the two of them their names.

"Kensaki."

"Manjiro."

Kousaka Kyosuke nodded slightly and left with his men.

The departure of the group from the Bureau of Investigation and Inspection brought peace of mind to the lowly non-humans who were temporarily living on the desolate plain.

"What should we do? Who knows if those people will kick us out once the environment here improves?"

Apa said through gritted teeth.

His henchman, Ah Pei, also looked resentful: "These soldiers and officers, not one of them is good!"

"Stop arguing, everyone," Mikey, or more accurately, the short, blond boy named Sano Manjiro, said.

After saying that, he looked at Kenzaki, as if asking how to solve the problem.

Kenzaki calmly and slowly began to speak:

"Dig pits, make simple latrines, and order others not to defecate indiscriminately. If possible, try to make fertilizer. I know a little about this."

Sano Manjiro nodded: "We'll do as you say."

This place is close to a water source, and the temperature is also quite suitable due to the terrain. If possible, we should stay here.

The main problem is that once we leave here, we don't know where else we can stay.

Not to mention, lingering on the street would only get you chased away.

“I remember there are some abandoned fields nearby. Are you going to use the fertilizer there?” Apa asked.
