There is a small lamp not far away outside the corridor. According to Yao Yan, when the judges first arrived, they often fell down at night because they couldn't see clearly, so they went to Wanwu to buy it and installed it.

Hinata was holding Yamaubakiri's left side, and Yakuken was on the other side.

The two short sword gods supported the body of the young katana man, but due to their height limitation, a small part of his body inevitably dragged on the ground, such as the sheet-like cloth on Yamaubakiri's body.

"The general can be very willful sometimes." Yao Yan spoke first, without any blame in his tone, but more of a smile.

Hinata thought about what happened just now and agreed, "That's true, but it's not a bad thing."

"Children are always energetic."

The reliable Fu Mian Shen said so, and Yao Yan agreed with him.

Yamaubakiri Kunihiro was actually almost sober after drinking the hangover soup, but he was just walking unsteadily, and had to bear most of his weight on his own. The cloth on his head fell softly, covering half of his face, and exuded a faint fragrance of laundry detergent.

"Thank you for your help."

"You don't have to be so polite, Yamaubakiri-dono." Hinata quietly reached out and pinched a corner of the Yamaubakiri long cloth to satisfy her curiosity. The feel was as soft as expected.

"But...are you really not going out, Yamaubakiri-dono?"

"I'll be fine here." Yamaubakiri answered Hinata's question, not noticing the short sword Fukushin's little move. He sat quietly at the small table, raised his hand and pulled off the cloth, completely covering his face.

Hinata walked out of the room and helped close the door. The people in the restaurant should have mostly left. When they sent Yamaubakiri back, many of them were drunk, especially Jiro Tachi who was in high spirits after being drunk.

Not far away, the lights were on. The head of the Awataguchi family, Ichigo Ichijin, took Toshiro and others outside for a walk in the breeze. However, the tantos started to make a fuss after they had taken a few steps. Hotaru and Aizen were among them, and later Imakaki also joined in.

The daggers were noisy and didn't run too far. They were playing games under the eyes of their parents. I was supposed to sit in the Ichigo Ichibo, but I was pulled away to join them. I don't know how I was surrounded by them.

The guardian sent by the police, Akashi Kuniyuki, was lying lazily on the corridor, covering his mouth with his hand and yawning. He was one of the people who didn't drink, and now he was sober except for being sleepy. Yingwan and Aizen wanted to pull him along, but he refused with a sleepy tone.

Mikazuki and Uguisumaru were holding teacups and sipping tea leisurely. A half-moon was hanging high in the sky above Honmaru, and the bright moonlight was pouring down, casting a clear reflection in the small pond next to them.

Yakuken and Hinata stood aside and watched the lively scene, not intending to join in for the time being.

"By the way, the dried plums that I promised to give to the master have not been delivered yet." Hinata suddenly remembered this, and after saying goodbye to Yaken, he hurried to the kitchen.

Yaoyan responded, and Ichigo Ichijin noticed him here and waved his hand, motioning him to come over.

"Why are there so many documents to process..." The Judge was lying on the table with his upper body, the fox shikigami was squatting beside the table and wagging its tail, and the attendant who came to help temporarily was Ishikirimaru.

Odachi looked gentle, and took out a document marked as urgent from the pile of papers and handed it to him. Nanari took it and paralyzed for a while before standing up, opening the window on the second floor of the castle tower and looking down, taking in the scene in the courtyard, and smiled unconsciously.

Qili found the pen that he had just knocked over from under the table, reached into the sugar jar beside him but found nothing, then he remembered that he had eaten all the candy two days ago.

"I kind of miss Hinata's dried plums." Nanari sighed. The dried plums she ate in the afternoon were sour, but the aftertaste of sweetness made people unable to stop eating them. It was a pity that there was only one.

The wooden sliding door was knocked twice, and Hinata's voice came in.

The inquisitor didn't even bother with the documents, he just rolled up his loose trouser legs and rushed to open the door.

Hinata was stunned: "Master, this is..."

"Maybe it's because you came here just after I mentioned Hinata." Ishikirimaru said from behind.

"I remembered that I had promised to send Mei Gan here, so I came."

"So, Hinata is an angel, an angel——"

"Eh? That description is actually unnecessary..."

"No, no, no, please accept this compliment!"

"Master is really... still a child after all."

Qili took the small plate and carefully pushed the pile of documents aside to make space for it. There were dozens of dried plums scattered on the plate, not a lot, probably because they took into consideration that the inquisitor would get a sour taste in his teeth if he ate too much.

"By the way, we will go to Man-ya to buy supplies after we go out tomorrow. Do you want to come with us, Hinata?"

"Going shopping? Got it. Leave the calculations to me." (Note 1)

"Then remember to make a list of some essential items first." Nanari added, "Although the basic tools are already put away, if there are any other things you need, you can just write them down."

"good--"

The next morning.

The time-space conversion device was placed in the courtyard. Today's team was announced by Hasebe, and the people who were called responded. The captain was Hinata Masamune who had just arrived yesterday.

The departure location was confirmed, and everyone brought their portable time-space devices. The next moment, golden light enveloped the six people, and after it dissipated, there was no trace of them at the place.

As Hasebe Yasaki was about to return to the castle tower to report, something on the ground caught his attention - it was the amulet of Hyuga Masamune.

"My lord!" Yakiri Hasebe picked up the dirt-covered Amori. Nanari, who heard the call in the castle tower, opened the window with a dazed look on her face, as if she had not yet woken up.

"What's wrong, Hasebe?"

"Hyuga's Yushou was left behind on the Honmaru grounds and was not taken away. You may need to confirm the situation and urgently recall the outbound team."

"Wait, Hinata?!" Nanari's eyes widened in disbelief, but she didn't think much about it. After all, the place the team was going to was not difficult. Her eyes fell on the Sumo held by Hasebe Takaki, and Nanari quickly turned around, turned on the computer, and contacted the team to confirm that the personnel were safe.

"How come... the call can't be connected."

While Nanari was trying to contact Hasebe, he knocked on the sliding door and walked straight into the house. All Nanari saw was the words "Unable to Contact" written in large letters on the computer screen.

"Emergency recall is not possible?"

"I've just tried almost everything, and none of them work." Qi Li pursed her lips. "I sent a message to the current affairs department, but they haven't responded yet. I didn't arrange for a high-level person to go to the battle site, and since they have the pharmaceutical research department, there shouldn't be any problems."

Nanari's words seemed to be comforting herself, and her feeling of uneasiness grew stronger.

"strangeness……"

"What's wrong?"

Hinata pressed the communication button on the device in his hand but nothing happened. He looked to Yakuin for help: "This seems to be broken."

"It shouldn't be broken." Yakuken jumped off the branch, took the device from Hinata and studied it. Apart from the communication, the conversion button also had no response.

The device did not give a suitable response. Yao Yan frowned, and he took out his portable device and pressed it. As expected, no golden light symbolizing the transformation appeared.

"If it's not broken, it's probably blocked." Yamaubakiri Kunihiro said. When he was a valet, he heard from the diviner that some battlefields cannot use the time-space conversion device. Once you enter, it will be blocked and cannot be activated. But the place they chose to go to the battle site is often visited, and the device will not be blocked. Moreover, no matter which battle site, the contact function is absolutely usable.

"No matter what, let's get rid of the enemy first. The general may have noticed the problem."

The Time Travel Army discovered the Fuzang gods in the woods earlier, and immediately the enemy's short swords rushed over like snakes, followed by several swords.

"The number of the tracing army is wrong." Rantoshiro cut off the enemy's short swords with one sword. Under normal circumstances, the number of tracing army should not exceed ten, and more would attract inspection and violation. But now, there are dozens of enemy short swords alone, not to mention the enemy swords following behind.

"Is Hinata okay?"

"No problem, leave it to me!"

The lowest-level member of the team was Hinata Masamune, who had just arrived yesterday. Considering Hinata's adaptation to the scene, Nanari did not choose high-difficulty locations for the deployment, but chose medium-level locations instead.

It has to be said that this made everyone feel slightly relieved. Although there were many enemy swords, they were still within the range that could be dealt with.

Hotaru fought three of them alone, and basically all the tracing army disappeared with one strike. It was similar in size to a short sword, but it could still swing easily. Hinata, who accidentally glanced at it, sighed in his heart, and kept blocking the enemy's short attacks with his hands to maintain a stalemate.

Suddenly, he smiled, his fighting spirit burning, the blade transmitted more force, and he gradually gained the upper hand in the confrontation: "As long as we get to close range, it will be my victory!" (Note 2)

As soon as he finished speaking, the blade chopped the enemy into two pieces and disappeared. Hinata's blue eyes were bright, and he was not afraid of the enemy who attacked again.

Qi Li was restless, waiting for the current affairs information to come back. She paced back and forth in the room, her fingers clenched until her knuckles turned white. The screen suddenly lit up before it went completely dark, and Qi Li rushed over to check. It was the current affairs information that came back.

"You have accidentally entered a special battlefield and will be automatically transmitted back in three hours?" Qili gritted his teeth to hold back the swearing thoughts and typed out a few brief questions on the keyboard.

"The difficulty of the special battlefield is too high. Even with a full-level ultra-short team, it is inevitable to get hurt—" Nanari was getting angrier and angrier. If she wasn't afraid of missing out on important information, she would have wanted to kick the door of the current affairs headquarters right now. "Crap current affairs, the time-space conversion device actually has problems!"

"You are calm..."

"It's hard to stay calm about this kind of thing. If they come back with any injuries, I will definitely tear down Shi Zheng's broken door."

Tsurumaru Kuninaga covered the mouth of the judge and tried to calm him down physically. He trusted his companions more than he worried about them, and was more willing to believe that the team would return intact.

However, Tsurumaru thought that the proposal of the judge was still very exciting to him, and it would definitely be a big shock.

The few Zhendaos who were being talked about by the Inquisitor had no idea what was happening over there in Qili, so they found a place to hide first.

The Tracing Army was completely killed. The Vibrating Swords that appeared in the later stages were too powerful, but fortunately it was daytime and Tai was able to show his strength. Therefore, everyone was in good condition, except for Hyuga Masamune who was being held down and given medicine.

"It hurts..." Hinata Masamune muttered softly. During the fight, he was stabbed in the left abdomen by the enemy's short sword.

Yagen Toushirou opened his portable medical kit and used the medicine inside to temporarily treat the bleeding wound. He then took out a bag of gauze, wrapped it around his waist several times, and tied a perfect bow at the end.

After the initial pain subsided, Hinata was in good spirits. He carried a small bottle with him. Yakumo thought it was empty at first, but it turned out to be half a bottle of dried plums.

"You really like dried plums." Yao Yan commented.

During the battle, Hinata was surrounded by three enemy swords. When others rushed to help, he had already killed all the enemies at the risk of being wounded. When asked about it, he smiled embarrassedly and said that he thought Yushou was still there, so he didn't worry too much.

The injured person followed the doctor's instructions and sat down against the tree without moving.

Yao Yan took out the device and looked at it. The time on it was still flowing correctly. It had been almost two and a half hours since they arrived at the battlefield. The Retrograde Army had not appeared again, so everyone could rest for a while.

"So do you still remember where Yu Shou lost?" Yao Yan turned around and asked him.

Hinata pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Now I remember, it must be because I didn't tie the rope properly and it fell near the device."

Yao Yan: “…………” He felt like he had a headache.

——Hinata is indeed reliable, but sometimes there are small problems, such as helping in the kitchen and losing control and making several large baskets of dried plums, and forgetting to tie the guard before going out.

Yao Yan thought sadly.
