Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1474 1446. Noble Son-in-law

The process of entering the city was uneventful.

Although Iwamura City is a militarized town, it is not in wartime, and the daily caravan trade and material transportation have never stopped for a day.

The entire town is not big, but Lan En's huge stature makes him stand out a bit.

But obviously, in Japan's Warring States Period, which had a supernatural power system, this figure was only 'amazing', but far from being 'astonishing'.

Even the soldier standing guard at the door just sighed at Lan En's size and then focused on the news he brought.

Seeing Lan En take out Daisuke Kikuchi's autographed letter from his body, the soldiers guarding the city gate did not dare to neglect, and turned to call Shangguan over.

But his superior officer was obviously not literate either. The handwriting on this autographed letter was regular and it was obviously written by a literate person, so he searched for someone again.

After struggling for a while, the letter was handed over to the city lord Ando Mamoru.

Lan En sat cross-legged on the reflective wooden floor that had been coated with tung oil, waiting calmly.

And a while later, a man with a Tanglun hairstyle walked to the main seat of the room with a gloomy expression.

Tang Lun hair, that is, the hair is not shaved like Tsukiyo hair, but the hair is combed back directly and tied into a high ponytail at the back of the head.

This man with a gloomy face is obviously the lord of the city and Daisuke Kikuchi's lord, Ando Mamoru.

At this time, he was also sitting cross-legged, but behind and to the side of the main seat, there was a pair of warrior armor arranged as a seated statue, which looked fierce and majestic.

Ando Mamoru's hand was placed on the small armrest next to the cushion, with Daisuke Kikuchi's handwritten letter in his palm.

Apparently, he had learned about the current situation from the letter and was in a bad mood because of it.

"Why do you keep looking at my family armor?"

Suddenly, Mamoru Ando, ​​who seemed to be thinking deeply due to an unexpected situation, raised his head and asked Lan En in a deep voice under the seat in front of him.

From his perspective, he felt that the man in front of him, who had a strange origin and a monstrous appearance, was passing by him with eyes so deep that it made people tremble.

From that angle, you almost see the seated samurai armor behind Ando Mamoru.

In Japan's highly hierarchical Warring States Period, this was basically considered 'rude'.

But in fact, Lan En was just using his [Spiritual Vision] to see if people like Ando Mamoru and the 'Mino Trio' had possessed spirits.

But unfortunately, there is obviously nothing on this person.

Not only did they not have the possessed spirit body that appeared in form, they didn't even feel the inexplicable power entangling them from the void when they first came to this world.

It’s not that it didn’t appear at all, it means that there was no contact at all, right?

What is the purpose of the possessed spirit here? What criteria are used to find people?

His mind was rapidly sorting out the newly acquired information.

But relying on his almost instinctive communication skills, Lan En still responded to Ando Mamoru's questions flawlessly.

No one could tell that he was distracted.

"This set of family armor looks very impressive, so I looked at it twice unconsciously and asked the city lord for your forgiveness."

Neither humble nor arrogant, even polite and polite to the point that Mamoru Ando, ​​who was in a bad mood, couldn't say anything.

Why does this guy look more noble than the officials in Kyoto?

Mamoru Ando is not a good-tempered person.

After he got Daisuke Kikuchi's letter, he immediately realized that the problem was not simple and might be serious, and his mood became bad.

When he spoke at this time, he was basically out of anger and subconsciously looking for an excuse.

But when Lan En responded to him in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, the angry mood immediately disappeared without a trace.

The bizarre experience of the man in front of me is indeed staggering, but what about Akito?

The people of Ming Dynasty still say in their country, "The sky is high and the emperor is far away". This is Japan.

Although most people will subconsciously attach some importance and respect after hearing the name of Ming people, but if it really gets in the way, who cares about you? Ming people and Japanese, should we just cut them off?

Lan En himself is so strong that Ando Mamoru doesn't care too much.

Because of his proximity to Owari Province, Ando Mamoru had actually begun to come into contact with some new weapons circulating on the Japanese market.

I heard that they were weapons of the Southern Barbarians, and the big fool from Owari bought a lot of them, which made him a little interested, so he bought two of them. Now I have practiced well.

However, when Lan En's natural nobility is expressed through his words and actions.

Ando Mamoru immediately calmed down again.

Isn't this a big shot?

Compared with simple and crude force, the power and relationships behind it make people more vigilant and cautious.

When he thought of this, the lord of Iwamura City even sounded more polite while hesitating.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"This, this is the great armor inherited from our family. It is placed in the castle tower to warn the clan members not to slack off at all times."

As he spoke, Mamoru Ando, ​​who had one hand hanging down on the small armrest, sat upright, clenched his hands on both sides of his cross-legged legs, and nodded slightly to Lan En in the audience.

According to etiquette, this was his gratitude to Lan En for admiring his ancestor's armor.

But there is no doubt that this set of etiquette is only applicable to people of at least the same status.

For example, if Ando Mamoru's subordinates can take a serious look at the family armor, they will have to express their gratitude.

Lan En, on the other hand, still looked calm, and just imitated Mamoru Ando flawlessly with his movements.

He also placed his fists on the floor on both sides and nodded slightly to him.

This stable and calm posture suddenly made the city lord of Iwamura City feel happy. Oh shit! Fortunately, Daisuke Kikuchi said in the letter that this person’s origin was probably in deep water! Otherwise, I can't help but feel stupid and plunge into the deep water!

The samurai preached a fearless and reckless fighting spirit to the outside world. In fact, as long as you have a fiefdom, it is impossible to use your brain, let alone Ando Mamoru who became the lord of the city.

It’s clear that someone’s identity is not simple, and may even be very noble! There is no deep hatred or conflict of interest. What's wrong with showing a good face? Is it much?

not much! Mamoru Ando felt that was not much at all!

The atmosphere of the conversation shifted unconsciously.

The atmosphere of sitting high up in the main seat, like a great master questioning an unknown person, is dissipating.

Lan En's demeanor and temperament in such social situations fully elevated his status as a newcomer to that of a city lord.

The so-called etiquette, although cumbersome and often stale, is precisely because of its cumbersomeness that it has become a stepping stone for social class and a hidden identity certificate.

Lan En is not proficient in Japanese local etiquette, and it can even be seen that he is learning from Ando Mamoru on the scene.

But just his learning process had already made this "Meinong Three People" subconsciously feel that he must have been familiar with complicated etiquette and various communication methods before.

It is different from the local ones in Japan, but it must also represent a very high social status.

Having this concept is enough for Mamoru Ando.

"I heard that you are willing to investigate the sudden appearance of heavy [filth] near our city?"

Although the handwritten letter in my hand is clearly written, talking nonsense is also one of the ways to get closer to each other in terms of communication.

Lan En was not surprised, and just reiterated: "I should have been involved with this [dirty] myself, and I can't get away from it. Instead of injuring others, it's better for me to solve it directly. It just so happens that I also rely on these skills to make a living. of."

“Your Excellency’s determination and grace are admirable!”

Ando Mamoru was prepared to praise him.

But Lan En didn't pay much attention to what he said, because at this time, it was like the feeling last night, a warm and warm air blew across the back of his neck.

It seems that the thing behind him also agrees with his statement.

Later, after some useless politeness, Ando Mamoru wrote another handwritten letter and gave it to Lan En.

He also ordered the waiters in the castle tower to provide Lan En with the convenience of investigation.

Then, in a polite manner, he announced the end of the conversation.

And seeing Lan En turn around and leave without any grudge or feeling after giving a calm nod, and simply and neatly, the corner of Ando Mamoru's mouth twitched unconsciously again.

Is it true that the lord of Iwamura Castle is not worth caring about?

What the **** is this identity? !

An aristocratic figure with a background as deep as the sea suddenly appeared in the territory, and Mamoru Ando didn't even think that the matter of [Residue] was too urgent.

"Someone's coming."

After Lan En's back completely disappeared from the castle tower, Ando Mamoru called the waiter.

Soon, a young man with a Tsukiyo haircut was half-kneeling in front of the city lord, lowering his head and waiting for instructions.

"Now... um. I'm not sure about something. I'll give this letter to my son-in-law and you will deliver it as soon as possible. Do you understand?"

Xiao Xing raised his head and glanced, then simply nodded: "Yes!"

Ando Mamoru's son-in-law was Takenaka Shigeharu, also known as Takenaka Hanbei, a member of the prestigious Takenaka family in Mino.

But after writing the letter quickly, Ando Mamoru hesitated for a moment, directly crossed out the last column of words, added the four Chinese characters "come in person", and then handed the letter folded to the person in front of him.

After receiving the letter, Xiao Xing immediately set off, his feet clicking on the wooden floor.

Lan En didn't know that Mamoru Ando called Hanbei Takenaka to come to Iwamura Castle just to see his true and false intentions clearly.

But even if he knew, he probably wouldn't care much.

Reality, reality, and background are not as important to him as the peace of mind of maintaining his sword and armor in his spare time.

"No, you don't have to follow me. Just point me to where that person's home is. Well, it's really crowded."

Lan En said to the soldiers who were stiff around him.

The second half of the sentence was his own murmur while walking down the stairs.

The reason why Iwamura Castle was able to become a military fortress that has stood for hundreds of years is because it is located in a key location, and because of the terrain and stone materials, it was built narrow and strong.

The terrain was very suitable for one man to hold the position, but Lan En's body shape made walking uncomfortable.

After getting the address of the hanged man, Lan En walked alone for a while, and then a series of tiny crisp sounds came from the tiles of the houses around him.

The flannel ball landed on his shoulder with a 'ouch'.

"It's all arranged, meow! Qilin is outside ready to respond, I'm here to help!"

"Thank you. But the situation is better than we expected, so the lord is quite polite."

Lan En hugged the flannel ball to the ground and said, and the two of them immediately walked towards the target house.

And at the corner of the street, a figure was observing them in the dark.
