章 178: Don’t Underestimate Friendship!

Everyone: "..."

"I have goosebumps all over. You bastard!" Toshiro was the first to kick Yamazaki over, cursing as he kicked, "Why are you speaking in the tone of a girl? Why are you acting like we're fighting over you? How disgusting!"

"That… deputy chief... listen to my explanation..." Yamazaki explained intermittently.

"I won't listen! When we get back to the station, commit seppuku, you bastard!" Toshiro scolded.

Originally, the Hyakka member wanted to rush up to save Yamazaki, but they were stopped by Kawaki and Tsukuyo.

"That..." Suddenly, a Hyakka member pointed to a tree in the distance and said, "That is a rhinoceros beetle, right?!"

In an instant, everyone stopped moving and looked in the direction that the Hyakka member pointed. They saw a rhinoceros beetle lying quietly on the tree.

In the next second, whether it was Shinsengumi or Yorozuya trio, they rushed toward the tree, and a chaotic battle unfolded.

"Do they... need to be so excited?" Tsukuyo asked doubtfully.

Kawaki chuckled and crossed his arms as he explained, "This is a man. No matter what age a man is, he must be hiding a child's heart."

"Really?"

Kawaki nodded.

"Chief, we..." The Hyakka members held their nets and looked at Tsukuyo.

"Then... let's go too!" After hesitating for a while, Tsukuyo said.

Kawaki did not want to get involved with this group of people. After all, he still wanted to find a super scary prop for tonight's test.

"You guys go and play. I still have other things to do." After saying that, Kawaki turned around and prepared to leave.

"We will be very fast." As she spoke, Tsukuyo took out kunai from her bosom, and the Hyakka members also took out kunai.

"You guys... what are you guys trying to do by taking out the kunai?" Kawaki retorted with an expressionless face.

Tsukuyo was the first to throw out the kunai, followed by the Hyakka members.

After the 'Swish' sound, they saw that the rhinoceros beetle on the tree in the distance had already died to the point that it couldn't be more dead...

Shinsengumi, "..."

Yorozuya trio, "..."

"What the hell are you guys doing?" Kawaki said expressionlessly, then took a deep breath and shouted, "Didn't you want to capture the rhinoceros beetle?! Is there such a method of capturing?! Are you treating the rhinoceros beetle as a target?!"

"That's right! That is my rent for the second half of the year! How are you going to compensate me?!" Gintoki rushed to Tsukuyo and shouted loudly, his saliva almost flying to Tsukuyo's face.

"Wait a minute," Kawaki asked, "Rent? What do you mean? Didn't you come here to catch rhinoceros beetle for Kagura-chan?"

After saying that, Kawaki looked at Shinpachi.

"Huh? Who told you?" Gintoki said disdainfully, "How could we come here for such a boring reason? We are here for business! Business!"

The Shinsengumi group was speechless as they watched Gintoki and Kawaki fight again.

"Hey, Kondo-san," Toshiro w.hispered into Kondo's ear, "It won't be good if this goes on. Those women are too dangerous. If they find out about Rurimaru..."

"It makes sense... If this continues, Rurimaru will be in danger..."

...

"Sogo-kun, are you interested in catching [rhinoceros beetle]?" Kawaki waved at Sogo and shouted.

"Okay~" As he spoke, Sogo walked over.

"Hey, where are you going? Shouldn't we move together?" Toshiro shouted at Sogo's back.

"No, this must be Sogo's plan. With him monitoring those people..." Kondo said.

"I didn't expect him to have such a mind." Toshiro sighed.

"Sogo is also improving." Kondo nodded and said.

Hearing this, Toshiro only lit a cigarette and did not say anything.

...

Dusk.

"Boss, this should be enough, right?" Sogo pointed at the dummy beside him and said.

"Yes, it looks really scary." Kawaki glanced at the dummy who was holding his head in his arms and commented, "Alright! It's done now! As expected of Sogo-kun, he actually made it so realistic. "

"It's all thanks to Boss' suggestion," Sogo replied and then stuffed two time bombs into the dummy, "Let's keep this for Hijikata-san."

"You two... aren't you two too scheming..." Shinpachi said expressionlessly.

"By the way, have you completed your task?" Kawaki looked at Shinpachi and asked.

"Ah, it's all done. The kind of lights that are similar to ghost fire have all been prepared. The skeletons have all been hidden," Shinpachi quickly replied, "It really wasn't easy. I search to a lot of shops to find the things you were talking about."

"Alright, you will hide in the tree and wait for them to come in and press the switch." Kawaki nodded and then revealed a smile, "I'm really looking forward to it. Their expressions~."

After a pause, Kawaki continued, "But it's still a bit lacking. I haven't found a fairy that can scare people. If there really is that, it would be great~."

"How could there be that kind of thing!" Shinpachi shouted.

"Let's use this instead," As he spoke, Sogo took out several time bombs and placed them in Shinpachi's hands, "When Hijikata comes in, use this to greet him."

"What a good substitute~" Kawaki praised.

Looking at the time bombs in his hands, Shinpachi fell silent and only reacted after a while, "How can we replace it with this? Hijikata-san will die! He will definitely die!"

"Isn't our goal to send Hijikata-san to hell?" Sogo was puzzled.

"Well, don't mind so much," Kawaki waved his hand and said casually, "I'm also a little hungry. Let's go back first. After dinner, the plan will officially begin!"

After saying that, Kawaki was the first to turn around and leave. Sogo also followed, leaving only Shinpachi, who was holding the bomb in a mess, alone...

...

A small open space was divided into three parts, namely Yoshiwara, Shinsengumi, and Yorozuya.

At this time, it was already dark. Everyone was preparing to start a fire and cook. By the way, in Shinsengumi... Today, Toshiro took the initiative to take over the responsibility of cooking.

On Yorozuya's side, Gintoki was preparing to make curry.

As for Yoshiwara, it was more sumptuous. After all, it was a group of girls.

"Oh, are you preparing to cook?" Kawaki walked over and greeted Tsukuyo, who was standing. Then, he looked at the busy Hyakka members.

"Speaking of which, what are you doing?" Tsukuyo asked.

"Of course, I went to find the fairy... rhinoceros beetle," Kawaki replied. Then, he pointed to a dead bear behind him and said, "By the way, I found some ingredients..."

Tsukuyo, "..."

"You guys, add this to your dinner menu too!" Kawaki dragged the dead bear to the front of everyone and said, "It took a lot of effort to find such ingredients."

"Kawaki-sama, this is... a bear, right?" A Hyakka member asked.

"Yes," Kawaki replied, "I pick it up on my way back..."

"How... can someone pick a bear..." A Hyakka member complained, her head full of black lines.

...

"Dinner's ready!" Toshiro announced loudly and then lifted the plate in his hand, "Today's dinner, Shinsengumi Sausage and Mayonnaise Cake!"

Shinsengumi members, "..."

"Hurry up and eat! There's still a mission tonight!" As he spoke, Toshiro was the first to sit down and eat.

Seeing Toshiro eating mayonnaise's cake with relish, all the members of Shinsengumi felt a little nauseous.

"What? Not eating? It's super delicious." Toshiro raised his head and said vaguely, "Don't worry, everyone has a share."

"We are not hungry..." The Shinsengumi members hurriedly said.

"Food wasters..." As he spoke, Toshiro raised his head and revealed a fierce expression.

"But... why can Captain Okita go over there to eat!" A member of Shinsengumi's team pointed at Sogo, who was mixed in with the Yoshiwara area, and shouted.

"That person has a secret mission!" Toshiro replied.

"What about Yamazaki? Does Yamazaki also have a secret mission?!" A member of Shinsengumi once again pointed at Yamazaki, who was also mixed in, and retorted.

"How is this possible, Yamazaki..." Toshiro smiled and said. However, when Toshiro raised his head and saw Yamazaki, who was talking and laughing in the Yoshiwara area, he felt bad all over.

Toshiro instantly stood up and rushed over to kick Yamazaki over and scold him, "What are you doing here?!"

"Well, I was invited to have dinner..." Yamazaki explained weakly.

"Toshiro, that won't do." Kondo, who was squatting on the ground eating bananas, raised his head and said, "As a man, you should be a gentleman when being invited to a dinner!"

"Even you are here?!" Toshiro shouted.

"Hey, isn't this V-shaped bangs? What's wrong? Do you want to participate in the party?" Kawaki stood up and said with a smile.

"Forget it, boss," said Sogo, "If Hijikata-san participated in a party, he would definitely be the type to sit at the side and eat mayonnaise quietly."

"Are you looking down on mayonnaise?"Toshiro shouted, "Mayonnaise is delicious enough to be eaten at a party!"

"No, you are the only one who likes it," Kawaki retorted expressionlessly, "It will definitely scare the girls away!"

"There will definitely be girls who come over to chat up! Seeing that kind of deliciousness, they will definitely come over to chat up!" Toshiro retorted.

"Then why don't you just give it a try?" Kawaki replied casually. Then, he looked at the Hyakka members sitting around the bonfire, "You guys, what would you do in that situation? Raise your hands if you're going to chat up."

Toshiro lit a cigarette and smiled confidently.

"Look, no one raised their hands," Kawaki said.

"Nani(What)?!" Only then did Toshiro realize that none of Hyakka's little sisters raised their hands!
