Chapter 314: Subdue Otsuki Minoru! Copy the Talent [Snake Body]! [7500]
Edo, a teahouse, a private room.
"My two guests, this is your tea."
Qing Deng often visited this teahouse.
There was no special reason why he became a regular customer of this shop. It was just that it was close to the test pavilion, so Qing Deng would occasionally come to this teahouse to drink a few cups of tea when he got off work or returned from Senjiya, Xiaoqianye Sword Hall, etc.
"Thank you."
Qing Deng nodded politely to the boy who should be around 15 years old who was holding the tea.
The boy put the two cups of hot tea on the tea tray on the table in front of Qing Deng, and secretly looked at the beauty sitting opposite Qing Deng with cautious movements... the face and figure of Otsuki Minoru.
The larynx, which had developed slightly due to the early puberty, moved up and down gently.
The childish eyes exuded the colors of fascination and desire.
Although the boy's actions were very covert, Qing Deng, who had "Eagle Eye +1" and amazing eyesight, could see through the boy's sight and expression.
Looking at the young Teshiro who was frantically peeking at Otsuki Minoru, Qing Deng couldn't help but laugh.
It's no wonder that this young boy who was not very experienced in the world was so out of control in front of Otsuki Minoru.
After all, according to the three views of the Edo period, Otsuki Minoru was definitely a beauty.
She had beautiful facial features, a graceful figure, fair skin with a healthy pink, and black, shiny hair.
Her mature makeup made her face as beautiful as a peach, and her eyebrows and eyes exuded a mature and charming demeanor, and her every move showed her graceful manners.
Her upper body was outlined by the dark brown kimono, with the upper part of the kimono stretched out tightly; her waist was as slender as a willow wrapped in a black belt.
The most important thing is that the back of Otsuki's neck is very beautiful, with symmetrical and beautiful lines. The neck flesh that has not been tanned exudes a transparent texture under the light.
Kimono is a kind of clothing that can wrap people very tightly. Even the coolest yukata only reveals a little more than the ordinary kimono.
It is said that when a woman wears very little, men always fix their eyes on the place covered by the cloth; when a woman wears a lot of clothes, men always fix their eyes on the place not covered by the cloth.
Therefore, no matter what type of kimono, the back of the neck is always exposed outside the cloth, which has become the focus of people's attention.
Over time, the back of the neck has become the favorite sexual fetish of the young and old men in the Edo period.
One of the major criteria for many people when choosing a spouse or daughter-in-law is whether the back of the woman's neck is beautiful.
The reason why the prostitutes in Yoshiwara and Okaba, as well as those geishas who play musical instruments and sing, always pull their collars back to expose their entire back necks or even half of their snow-white backs is to better attract men.
The last time we met... was a quick reunion at the fireworks festival four months ago. Because the meeting time was short, it was at night and the light was dim, and Qing Deng had no interest in Otsuki Minoru, so when they met last time, Qing Deng didn't pay much attention to Otsuki Minoru's appearance.
Now that I have time and leisure, I can observe Otsuki Minoru calmly and carefully from head to toe. Even Qing Deng, who has a strong prejudice against Otsuki Minoru, can't help but admit: Otsuki Minoru is indeed a girl who is very attractive in appearance.
No wonder "Harajuku Qing Deng" loves this woman to death.
The young clerk obviously still had a lot of work to do. Besides, he had been secretly observing the face and figure of the woman who was obviously from a good family. If he was discovered, he might cause trouble. So the young clerk did not dare to stay in the private room for long. He put down the tea, bowed to Qing Deng and Otsuki, and left quickly with the tea tray, not forgetting to close the door tightly when he left.
The boiling tea cup was a perfect hand warmer in the current season.
Qing Deng held the tea cup tightly with both hands, using the strong warmth attached to the cup to thaw his frozen palms while taking a sip from the cup.
"So, Miss Otsuki, why did you suddenly come to see me?"
After swirling the tea in his mouth and swallowing it, Qing Deng used politeness to cover his euphemism and sent a cold question to the woman in front of him who had a complicated relationship with him.
He got straight to the point without any greetings.
Qing Deng deliberately used the unfamiliar title "Miss Otsuki".
About 20 minutes ago, Qing Deng was on his way out of the Test Guard Hall, preparing to go to Senjiya. While lazily spending today's holiday with Kinoshita Mai to enhance his relationship and practice sword-drawing techniques, he suddenly ran into Otsuki Minoru, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
No... it might not be accurate to say "encountered". Because Otsuki Minoru was obviously prepared.
That area was the only way for Qing Deng to leave the Test Guard Hall.
Whether he went to work at the government office of the fire thief Kai or went to see Kinoshita Mai and other women, Qing Deng had to pass through that area.
As soon as Qing Deng appeared, Otsuki Minoru hurriedly stepped out of the nearby alley and walked towards Qing Deng quickly.
It was obvious that Otsuki Minoru had done a good job of reconnaissance in advance and found out where Qing Deng always appeared, so he set up an "ambush" in advance.
After 4 months, this woman who played a decisive role in the memory of "Hara Tachibana Qing Deng" appeared again in front of him within reach, and Qing Deng was really surprised.
He had always thought that he would never have the chance to meet Otsuki Minoru again after they parted at the fireworks display this summer.
He had no plans to reconnect with Otsuki Minoru, so after seeing Otsuki Minoru's face again, Qingden's mood was calm, and there was no ripple in his heart.
Before Aoto asked Otsuki "Why are you here?", Otsuki took the lead and bowed towards Aoto with a sad face. His upper body and lower body were at a standard 90 degrees, and the whole back of his neck was exposed to Aoto. In front of his eyes, he could vaguely see the deep bow of his smooth and delicate back through the gaps in his clothes.
"Tachibana-kun, please help me!"
The first words he spoke made Monk Qingden Zhanger confused.
Although it was still early and there were not many pedestrians on the street, there were still a few bearers and merchants walking back and forth on the street who had been up early and stayed late.
A well-dressed beauty with a beautiful face begged a samurai master for help in broad daylight and in full view of everyone... This kind of excitement is something you have to see!
As a result, in the blink of an eye, no less than four people stopped to watch, and the number of people continued to increase.
To be honest, Qingto was confused by what Otsuki Minoru said. For a moment, he wanted to just leave Otsuki Minori on the spot.
If it is "Original Tachibana Aoden", then he may still be nostalgic for this former goddess.
But Qingto has no feelings for Otsuki Minoru at all.
Seeing her asking him for help without any foreshadowing, Qingdeng felt nothing but frowning because he was deeply confused.
But maybe it was out of curiosity. I was curious about what Otsuki Minoru meant by "help me." Seeing Otsuki Minoru's sincere look on the ground, Qingto did not ignore Otsuki Minoru after all.
Anyway, I'm very free today and have a lot of time, so let's listen to what she wants to say.
The middle of the street, with so many people coming and going, is not a good place to talk, so Qingteng took Otsuki Minoru to this tea house and opened a private room where outsiders would not disturb him.
Qingdeng is straight to the point, and Otsuki Shi is not ambiguous either.
She didn't even bother to drink the hot tea on the table, so she bent down and said sadly in a pleading tone:
"Tachibana-kun, please save my husband! He, he was captured by Yakuza of the 'Qingshui Clan'!"
Otsuki Minoru's husband—that is, the young and wealthy man named Otsuki Tsuneji.
Qingshui clan, take away... the effect produced by the combination of this noun and this verb made Qingden frown slightly unconsciously.
…
Otsuki Minoru, with slightly red eyes, choked with sobs, explained the ins and outs to Qingdeng.
Otsuki Minoru's eloquence was not very good, and she spoke awkwardly. Qingden concentrated and listened hard, and finally managed to understand what was going on——
Four months ago, in order to expand their business territory, Otsuki Minoru and her husband Otsuki Tsuneji came to Edo to discuss cooperation with the super local snakes that are difficult to avoid for anyone who wants to launch large-scale trade in Edo: the "Shimizu Clan" , trying to join forces with the "Shimizu Clan" to run a liquor business, selling water from the upper reaches of the Kinki land to Edo.
Then, Aoto accidentally met Otsuki Minoru and his friends who came to the right arm at the fireworks display, and later saved them from Gosaku Shimizu who suddenly went crazy.
When they first arrived in Edo, they encountered such terrifying things, and the person who gave them such a bad experience happened to be the person they wanted to do business with.
Although Gosaku Shimizu does not hold any real power in the "Shimizu Clan", to put it harshly, this person is just the dog kept by Eiichi Shimizu, the leader of the "Shimizu Clan". His sexual harassment of Otsuki Minoru and the beating of Otsuki Tsuneji and others were all his personal actions and had nothing to do with the entire "Shimizu Clan", but many people were still frightened by this unexpected disaster.
Many of Otsuki Tsuneji's friends have given up: Why don't we go back to Nara?
This is how disagreements arise.
Some people wanted to return to Nara, while others, led by Otsuki Tsuneji, insisted on staying in Edo.
Although Otsuki Tsuneji has a glorious status as a "rich generation" that is envied by countless people and seems to live a worry-free life, he also has his own troubles.
The glorious achievements of his ancestors and fathers overwhelmed him.
When people mention him Dayue Changci, they will only think of him as the grandson of XXX and the son of YYY.
The ambitious Otsuki Tsuneji didn't like this.
He is eager to make some achievements as soon as possible to prove his ability and get rid of the shadow of his ancestors and fathers.
The wine business with the Qingshui clan is a great opportunity to prove his ability in one fell swoop.
So even though he was the one who was beaten the hardest by Shimizu Gosaku, he still had the determination to never go back unless he achieved great results.
After several fierce arguments, Otsuki Tsuneji finally parted ways with those who wanted to go back.
Anyone who wants to go back can go back.
Otsuki Tsuneji led those who had the same ideas as him and continued to stay in Edo.
Otsuki Minoru was one of those who was frightened out of his wits.
Otsuki Minoru, who was frightened by the incident that night and lost two of her three souls and five of her seven souls, can be said to be the person who wants to return to Nara the most.
But Otsuki Tsuneji was determined to stay in Edo. As Otsuki Tsuneji's wife, Otsuki Minoru had no choice but to stay in Edo with Otsuki Tsuneji.
Liquor produced in the Gyeonggi area, known as "shangfang water", has always been in short supply in Edo.
Otsuki Tsuneji has a stable supply of high-quality and low-priced water from above, so when Otsuki Tsuneji came to the door with a "cooperation plan", the "Shimizu clan" showed a certain interest.
The Shimizu clan sent a small leader named Junyuki Sanada to be in charge of contacting Otsuki Tsuneji and others.
The contact process between the two parties has been smooth, so smooth that Otsuki Minoru was relieved and thought that the deal should be settled.
As a result... just half a month ago, a new accident occurred.
Otsuki Tsuneji was suddenly taken away by the "Shimizu clan".
One morning half a month ago, a large group of Yakuza from the "Shimizu clan" broke into the hotel where Otsuki Minoru and others lived, and took Otsuki Tsuneji away without explanation.
Although Otsuki Minoru asked in a pleading voice, "What's going on?" and "Why did you take my husband away?", the Yakuza who came to arrest people completely ignored Otsuki Minoru and rudely asked Otsuki Minoru to get out of the way and mind his own business.
In the following days, in order to save Otsuki Tsuneji, Otsuki Minoru and Otsuki Tsuneji's friends ran around.
In their hometown, that is, in Nara, these rich kids may be considered as well-known figures, but their tricks are completely useless in Edo, where there are many hidden talents and deep waters.
Yakuza groups of the level of "Shimizu Clan" have always been the targets that the magistrate's office and the "township self-governing organization" have tried their best to avoid conflicts with.
Qing Deng, who was once a member of the Kitabansho, has a deep understanding of this.
Unless there is a major case such as a murder, in the face of all cases related to the "Shimizu Clan", both the magistrate's office and the "township self-governing organization" will adopt the strategy of "delay" until the case is dead.
Otsuki Minoru and others, who have no way to report to the authorities and no way to ask for help, have no other gains except finding out that Otsuki Tsuneji was kidnapped by a senior official named Kitahara Kounosuke.
Just when everyone was in despair, Otsuki Minoru suddenly recalled: there was such a person who showed up in time to save them when they were about to be beaten to death by Shimizu Gosaku; that person's power was so great that even Shimizu Eiichi had to use the highest level of honorifics and bow respectfully when he saw him.
That person... maybe he could save Otsuki Tsuneji!
The above is all the reasons why Otsuki Minoru suddenly came to find Qing Deng.
"..."
Qing Deng placed his right index finger on the dining table and knocked the table up and down rhythmically.
The "knock knock knock" sound added a strange and tense atmosphere to the private room surrounded by silence.
Otsuki Minoru, who made clear his purpose, kept his waist lowered and waited anxiously for Qing Deng's reply.
Qing Deng's silence made her feel an inexplicable pressure.
Fortunately, this silent atmosphere that made her feel suffocated did not last too long.
"…Miss Otsuki, do you know why your husband was captured by someone called Konosuke Kitahara?"
Organizations like the "Shimizu Clan" that are strict in rules and order rarely capture people for no reason.
"I don't know..."
Otsuki Minoru answered without hesitation.
"I have asked the people of the "Shimizu Clan" many times about this, but they just won't tell me why they captured my husband..."
At this point, Otsuki Minoru seemed to recall some bitter past events, and the emotions that had just calmed down began to ripple again, and his tone became choked again.
"..."
Qing Deng fell silent again.
He grabbed the cold tea and drank it all in one gulp.
Then he prepared to get up and leave.
Otsuki Minoru's husband was captured by the Yakuza of the "Shimizu Clan"... What does this have to do with him?
In fact, if the "help" mentioned by Otsuki Minoru is a small favor for Qing Deng, then Qing Deng doesn't mind doing a favor.
But it was obvious that rescuing Otsuki Tsuneji, who was not related to him, from the hands of the "Shimizu Clan" was more than a "piece of cake" in Qing Deng's eyes.
Is there any need to do such a thing that only has risks but no rewards and does not benefit him at all?
Although Qing Deng's buttocks were still sitting on the tatami without moving, the unique care of a woman still made Otsuki Minoru aware of Qing Deng's intention at the first time.
The panic of being at a loss dominated Otsuki Minoru's expression in an instant.
A resolute look of "giving it all up" burst out from Otsuki Minoru's eyes.
"Tachibana-kun."
Otsuki Minoru took a half step to the right on his knees, moved to a place where his body would not be blocked by the table, and his waist was greatly pressed down, his smooth forehead pressed against the tatami, and his hands in front of his head only touched the ground with three fingers - it was the highest level of etiquette in Japan: Dogeza.
While kneeling on the ground, Otsuki Minoru pulled up the collar of his kimono with an unnoticeable movement, thereby exposing more of the back of his neck.
From Qing Deng's perspective, he could see a large area of dazzlingly white tender neck and back skin.
"Jujun! Please! Help me! I have no one else to turn to except you!"
After saying this, Otsuki Shi deliberately buried her head as low as possible, as if she wanted to make her forehead merge with the ground.
At the same time, she arched her back slightly so that Qing Deng could see her neck more clearly.
Otsuki Shi still remembered how fascinated the man in front of her was with her.
Back then, Qing Deng loved her neck the most.
He often peeked at her neck without being discovered, and repeatedly praised her neck in person with a deep and affectionate tone.
In fact, Otsuki Shi has always been proud of having a swan neck with beautiful lines.
That’s why she pulled her collar back when she bowed her head and knelt down, in order to please him—to seduce Qing Deng!
At this moment, a huge sense of shame surrounded Otsuki Minoru’s whole body.
There was actually a day when she knelt down and seduced Tachibana Qing Deng, who she had always looked down on.
If someone had said to Otsuki Minoru half a year ago, “One day you will have to kneel down and sell your body to Tachibana Qing Deng in order to ask for his help,” Otsuki Minoru would definitely sneer and wonder if the other person was crazy.
As a result… this day has really come.
Selling her body certainly made Otsuki Minoru so embarrassed that she didn’t even dare to raise her face, but she couldn’t care so much at the moment.
Facing Qing Deng who was going to leave, Otsuki Minoru had no confidence or bargaining chips to keep him. Apart from seducing him, she had no other way to use.
It was important to find a way to rescue her husband!
Otsuki Minoru was still very confident in her seduction skills...or in other words, in her beauty.
Even though they hadn't seen each other for a long time, it was impossible that Qing Deng had no feelings for her at all, right?
It had only been less than two years since she married and moved to Nara.
Just two years apart, he was no longer obsessed with her beauty? Otsuki Minoru didn't believe it!
Even if she couldn't impress Tachibana Qing Deng immediately, she could at least shake his resolve - Otsuki Minoru thought optimistically and confidently.
However...the next scene in front of her froze the confident arc at the corner of Otsuki Minoru's mouth in an instant.
Qing Deng glanced at Otsuki Minoru expressionlessly with an indifferent look.
Then, without even a moment's hesitation, Qing Deng slapped the empty teacup and tea money on the table.
"I'll treat you to this cup of tea. See you again in the future."
At the same time as he left this stiff and polite remark, Qing Deng grabbed the Dingguishen on the tatami mat on his right side, inserted the Dingguishen back to his left waist, and stood up and left.
Qing Deng saw through Otsuki Minoru's little thoughts at a glance.
Qing Deng, who couldn't help but feel secretly amused in his heart, subconsciously showed a strange expression.
White and tender neck... For a modern person whose soul comes from the 21st century, this sexual fetish is really a bit outdated.
Otsuki Minoru's actions are completely flirting with the blind and playing suona and kazoo to the deaf.
Qing Deng doesn't hate beautiful necks, but his real sexual fetish is not here.
After hearing what Qing Deng said and feeling the cool breeze brought by Qing Deng's standing up, Otsuki Minoru was immediately shocked, and his red lips opened so wide that his chin seemed to almost fall to the ground.
"Jujun! Please, please wait a moment!"
Otsuki Minoru took two steps at a time and stood in front of Qingdeng, raising his arms horizontally like playing the game of eagle catching chicken.
"Jujun, please! Just help me this time! I won't let you work in vain! Whatever you want in return, just tell me! I will definitely satisfy you..."
"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't want anything now, or what I lack."
Qingdeng calmly interrupted Otsuki Minoru with euphemistic words.
After that, Qingdeng stood half a step to the side, ready to bypass Otsuki Minoru.
But Otsuki Minoru followed Qingdeng closely, moving his body horizontally in the same direction and the same moving distance, and blocked Qingdeng again.
"Miss Otsuki, please get out of the way."
Qingdeng gathered up the remaining patience and sighed silently.
Maybe it was Qing Deng's attitude that was so stubborn that even the seduction technique didn't work on him that made Otsuki Minoru feel unhappy. She said in a tone that sounded like she was throwing a tantrum: "Unless you knock me out, I won't move aside..." Before she finished her words, two big hands grabbed Otsuki Minoru's right shoulder and left arm with a slight sound of breaking wind... You will only move aside if I knock you out? Since the other party asked for it, all the burdens in Qing Deng's heart disappeared instantly. Qing Deng, who had no sympathy for Otsuki Minoru, used his grappling skills to subdue her to the ground the next moment he grabbed Otsuki Minoru's palm. Of course, Qing Deng was not a demon after all, and it was impossible for him to really knock a girl unconscious, so Qing Deng used a lot of strength. Otsuki Minoru should feel some pain in her back, but it would not be a big deal. Otsuki Minoru was caught off guard by Qing Deng's sneak attack. It was not until the world in front of her eyes turned upside down that she realized what had happened.
Instantly, Otsuki Minoru's beautiful eyes widened. The area of the whites of her eyes increased by nearly 10% in one breath, and her two eyeballs seemed to be about to fall out of her eye sockets at any time.
"It hurts..."
A low cry of pain leaked out from Otsuki Minoru's lips and teeth.
Qing Deng only wanted to subdue Otsuki Minoru so that she could no longer hinder him from leaving.
Unexpectedly, Otsuki Minoru showed extraordinary resilience and persistence at this moment.
"Jujun... you were not like this before... before..."
When Otsuki Minoru said this, she reluctantly raised her head from Qing Deng's control, struggled to free one right arm, and gently covered Qing Deng's left palm that was grabbing her right shoulder with her soft jade-like right hand, with a wronged and unbelievable face.
It seems that she is now trying to play the emotional card with Qing Deng.
Qing Deng completely ignored Otsuki Minoru's "reminiscing about the past".
"Oh?"
He raised his eyebrows and looked at Otsuki Minoru's right arm that had escaped from his grappling technique with interest.
As a martial artist who loves hand-to-hand combat, Qing Deng saw it at a glance - Otsuki's move just now was not simple.
Only people with very delicate bodies and excellent limb flexibility can perform such difficult moves.
Otsuki's body is very soft - facing this discovery, Qing Deng began to count down to 10 seconds without any hesitation...
One side begged the other side to be kind and save her from the water and fire.
The other side coveted the other's physical talent.
The biggest distance in the world is probably this.
As soon as the 10-second countdown passed, Qing Deng immediately changed his moves and changed to another move to control Otsuki.
Otsuki's right arm, which had just been freed, was once again tightly controlled by Qing Deng.
This time, in order to ensure that Otsuki lost all resistance, Qing Deng used a very cruel move.
Otsuki was pressed to the ground, not to mention how she struggled and couldn't move.
According to Qing Deng's understanding of the system in his body, the system would most likely regard his and Otsuki's actions as a "duel".
The result... was as expected.
The next moment when Otsuki completely lost his ability to resist, a cold system voice flashed through Qing Deng's mind:
[Ding! Talent scanned]
[Talent successfully copied: "Snake Body"]
[Talent introduction: Body flexibility is better than ordinary people]
——Roar... I guessed right, Otsuki really has this physical talent!
After discovering that Otsuki's body was unusually soft, Qing Deng boldly guessed: Otsuki might have a talent related to flexibility in his body.
He really guessed it right.
Qing Deng, who was very happy to have successfully picked up a very useful talent for nothing, smiled happily.
Qing Deng's joyful smile only appeared for a moment.
Because just a moment later, footsteps came from the direction of the corridor.
Familiar footsteps.
A calm and elegant way of walking.
Footsteps that Qing Deng was used to hearing.
There was no way Qing Deng could have misheard the footsteps.
As soon as the footsteps appeared, they immediately moved to the door of Qing Deng and Otsuki Minoru's private room.
Wow!
A huge sound came from the room that was opened forcefully.
Qing Deng glanced towards the door reflexively.
"Ah..."
Qing Deng couldn't help but blurt out a sound.
At the door, Sanako looked at Qing Deng and Otsuki Minoru who were "entangled" on the tatami with an expression that was... difficult to describe in words.

When I wrote a chapter, my mind was full of the bitter thought "Miss Otsuki, you don't want your husband to get into trouble, right? So please". In just 10 minutes, I came up with an unspeakable fan fiction with a starting value of 30,000 words.
It's a pity that you probably won't see the day of these fan fictions.
