"That bastard!" Kawaki cursed.
"Is he still thinking of throwing the child away?! That bastard!" Shinpachi also cursed and chased after.
"That man is really rotten!" Tsukuyo also cursed.
"It's not a big problem for the time being. Let's split up." Kawaki took out his phone as he spoke, "Although Gintoki is an unreliable man, I don't think he will throw the child away. At most, he will give the child to the police. Fortunately, I know a few police officers. I will greet them in advance."
"That makes sense." Shinpachi nodded in agreement. "By the way, could the police you know be..."
"Yes, Sogo-kun," Kawaki replied without hesitation, "I didn't expect to have so many common topics with Sogo-kun. It's really fate to meet him~"
As he spoke, Kawaki had already sent a message to Sogo.
A few seconds later, everyone who saw Sogo's reply heaved a sigh of relief.
"Let's split up!" Kawaki was the first to rush out.
Just as Kawaki left, a high-end car stopped at the entrance of the Snack House. A kind-looking old grandpa walked down and stood in front of everyone.
"Um, sorry to bother you. I want to ask you something..." The old man said to everyone.
...
On the other side, as Kawaki had expected, Gintoki had indeed found Sogo, who was patrolling outside.
"An abandoned baby?" Sogo took off his blindfold and said at the same time.
"Well, that's it. I'll leave the rest to the police. Please." Gintoki sat on the bench and said casually.
"Hey, hey, stop joking, boss." Sogo sighed softly and then looked at Little Gintoki, who was in the middle of the two, "This child is exactly the same as you, mister. This pair of dead fish eyes are made in the same mold."
"Don't you know?" As Gintoki dug his nose, he continued casually, "All the kids these days are like this. They only know how to play games and surf the Internet. They never know how to go out to play. It's really a sick era~"
"Ah, amazing." Sogo looked at Kawaki's text message and sighed with emotion.
"Amazing? What is amazing? What's so amazing about staying at home?" Gintoki disagreed.
"I'm not talking about that. It's just that what you said is exactly the same as the text message from Yoshiwara's boss. He said that you would definitely say that. It seems that he really knows you very well." Sogo continued, but he was facing Little Gintoki.
"Huh? That guy really likes to meddle in other people's business." Gintoki said helplessly, "But, this is really not my child!"
"It's useless to look for me. This is the so-called you reap what you sowed. You have to bear it yourself. Don't bother me." Sogo laid down again and waved his hand. At the same time, he said casually, "Otherwise, I can only arrest you according to what Yoshiwara's boss said. Hurry up and go back. You don't want to be taken back to the police station, do you?"
After that, Sogo put on the blindfold again.
The next moment, Sogo was thrown into the river by the expressionless Gintoki, "Why are there so many people around me who don't believe in my story?"
After saying that, Gintoki left with Little Gintoki, who was in a baby stroller.
After a long time, Sogo came out of the river, "There is still something I want to say to you mister, your position has been sent to the boss of Yoshiwara by me!"
But at this time, Gintoki has already gone far away...
"Forget it..." Sogo said as he lay down on the water and continued to rest.
At this time, Kawaki, who was on the street, had received a message from Sogo and was rushing over quickly...
...
"Hey, are the two of us really that alike?" Gintoki touched his head and sighed softly.
"Yiyiya, Yiyiya." Little Gintoki, who was at the side, replied in baby language.
At this moment, a familiar voice was heard, "Oh, Gin-san."
Gintoki turned around, but before he could say anything, he heard Otae continue, "Are you working? You really do work hard~"
"Ah... well." Gintoki laughed, "That's right... someone asked me to do a job similar to taking care of children. Goodbye."
As he spoke, Gintoki prepared to slip away.
However, Otae stopped Gintoki once again, "Wait a moment, Gin-san." As she spoke, Otae walked to a small shop at the side. "Please give me Azuki bar and Baagen-Dazs."
"I don't have such fancy ice cream here..." The shop owner supported his chin with his hand at the counter, but just as he finished speaking, he was pressed down on the counter by Otae.
"Isn't there one in the convenience store?" Otae narrowed her eyes and said with a smile.
"I'll buy it right away!" The shop owner said as he rushed out.
"Don't be so polite..." After saying that, Gintoki picked up the baby stroller at the side and prepared to run away, "I don't know what will happen if she finds out!"
"Gin-san..." Looking at Gintoki who was running extremely fast, Otae's veins popped out and she threw out the Azuki bar that the shop owner had just sent over, "I told you to wait!"
"A big shot?!" Gintoki decisively lowered his head. The stick of ice passed over Gintoki and directly smashed into the face of Sacchan, who had appeared out of nowhere in front of Gintoki.
Sacchan calmed down for a while. She glanced at Gintoki and Little Gintoki, then looked at Otae behind Gintoki and suddenly realized something.
"Hey, are you alright?" Gintoki asked.
"Oh, so that's how it is..." Sacchan's face turned from dull to sad before finally turning into disappointment, "So you guys have such a relationship. I'm the only one who doesn't know..."
As she spoke, Sacchan turned around and a sad BGM rang out. Sacchan continued with tears streaming down her face, "You played with y feelings and strung me along... While you two were busy making a baby together."
"Miss Sarutobi, what are you talking about? Be careful that I might break your head." Otae reminded her expressionlessly.
"That's enough, it's really enough!" Sacchan continued to perform alone, "I look like a fool. I really do!"
"It's not like, you're a fool, right? You're a real fool, right?!" Gintoki retorted her expressionlessly.
"No matter how much you belittle me, I won't be secretly happy!" Sacchan pointed at Gintoki with tears streaming down her face, "The S&M game is over!"
"When have I ever played that kind of thing?!"
"The two of you can continue to have tons of children. The two of you can live in a shabby house for the rest of your lives!" Sacchan turned and ran out, "Goodbye, Best wishes... Do you think I'd say that?!"
Sacchan adjusted her glasses and rushed straight at Otae. She then did a flying kick, "I won't let you guys succeed!"
However, Otae lowered her head slightly and dodged it, "What is this guy doing?! What kind of drama is she directing and acting over there alone!"
"I'm very sorry, Miss Otae." After missing the attack and landing on the ground, Sacchan turned around and rushed at Otae again, "The moment a woman gave birth to a child, she was no longer a woman! Instead, she is just a family member! You are no longer a woman! You quit this game yourself. Thank you!"
"What game are you talking about? I didn't give birth! Who would give that trash Samurai a child!" Otae continued to dodge Sacchan's attacks.
"Then how are you going to explain that child?!" Sacchan retorted, "Whether his naturally wavy hair or dead fish eyes, they're all exactly the same!"
"I already said I don't know! At least I can be sure that it's not my child!" Otae finally grabbed both of Sacchan's hands. When she turned around, she saw Gintoki and Little Gintoki, who were about to slip away.
One big and one small looked at her with almost the same expression.
"Like father, like son!" Otae shouted and threw Gintoki into the river at the same time. Then, she clapped her hands and revealed a look of disdain, "I didn't expect you to have an illegitimate child. It's too bad! I misjudged you. I will make Shin-chan resign. Let's go, Miss Sarutobi."
Gintoki, floating in the river, looked at the sky and muttered, "Why? Why are there people around me who don't believe in others..."
"That's because you don't believe what others say either." Sogo floated over and replied, "Also, Yoshiwara's boss is rushing over. Although he asked me to arrest you for the crime of child abandonment, I am still very friendly... "
...
Otose Snack House.
"Sorry, I don't know this woman, and I haven't seen her before." Otose held the photo in her hand and thought about it for a moment, then said.
"Is that so?" The kind old man bowed to the crowd and continued, "I'm really sorry. I haven't introduced myself yet and I'm so presumptuous. Sorry, it's a bit late. My name is Hashida Kahei. I run a store here Kabukicho."
"Huh? That big corporation?" Shinpachi was a little surprised.
"What is that?" Kagura asked doubtfully.
"It's that one. Didn't you see it from Yorozuya? It's that very tall building," Shinpachi explained.
"So what exactly happened?" Otose continued to ask.
"It's like this," Mr. Hashida explained, "It's like this. A few days ago, my most precious grandson suddenly disappeared."
"Is it a kidnapping?" Otose said.
"Although I can't confirm it yet, he's still a child who can't even walk. I'm afraid it really was..." As he spoke, Mr. Hashida lowered his head, "So, after asking around, I found out that it was this woman..."
"Such a beautiful person would actually do such a thing..." Shinpachi murmured as he held the photo.
Tsukuyo, who was at the side, did not speak from the beginning to the end because Tsukuyo sensed that something was wrong. It was an intuition honed from Hyakka's work. Tsukuyo felt that although the old man in front of him had a kind face, she always felt that something was wrong, as if he was not telling the truth.
"Did you report to the authorities?" Otose continued to ask.
