Maybe a Fake Gintama

Chapter 525: On an Actor's Self-Cultivation



Late at night in Yoshiwara.

"Look," Kawaki aimed his smartphone camera at the ground where Kada lay and casually said, "The toy you wanted is now in hand. Come and pick it up yourself."

"It's just like you, catching that vixen in just one day," Kamui's voice came from the phone.

"Give me two days; if it's more than two days, bring me the extra food expenses for this fox, not a penny less."

"It's a pity, though; I was hoping to have a chance to face off against Shinra. I didn't expect you to have wiped them all out..." Kamui squinted his eyes and smiled through the phone screen, "But really, it's impressive you'd go to such lengths for such a gift. I'm really touched~ Of course, I mean, if it was truly just for my sake..."

"Goodbye, Nobita" Kawaki sneered slightly and then turned off his phone.

"Keep a good eye on her; don't let her get any ideas about dying or anything," Kawaki turned to the two Hyakka at the door and casually instructed, "Of course, if she really seeks death, there's no need to stop her forcibly."

"Yes!" ×2

"Then I'll leave it to you..." After speaking, Kawaki stepped away from the small cell.

'Troublesome brats, I have them here too…' Kawaki thought somewhat helplessly, 'That brat... could it be... has he noticed something?'

"Hey, that's taken care of too," Tsukuyo's voice suddenly came from the side.

"Oh, I know." Kawaki squinted his eyes and smiled in response, "Thanks for the hard work."

"It's nothing. I just played a little drama with a smart little fox," Tsukuyo replied nonchalantly. "Compared to what you did, my part was much easier."

"Tsukki..." Kawaki suddenly stopped walking, turned his face, and smiled warmly at Tsukuyo.

Tsukuyo gently exhaled smoke, glancing faintly at Kawaki.

"No, never mind..." Smiling softly, Kawaki waved his hand and then started walking forward again.

...

The next day at noon, in the Kabukicho Town Hall.

Unlike the clouds that were gradually gathering in the sky, the inside of the building and the courtyard were already drenched in a blood rain.

Jirocho, covered in blood, was holding a similarly blood-stained smoking pipe, sitting under the porch as if waiting quietly for something.

Looking through the doorway, one could see Otose, Kagura, Shinpachi, Tama, Catherine and Saigou all lying in pools of blood, while all the transvestites in the courtyard outside were also lying in blood pools.

"Hey, Kagura, you're supposed to be playing dead, not sleeping!" Shinpachi whispered urgently, "Your loud breathing will give us away!"

"Ah, sorry," Kagura rubbed her sleepy eyes, "It's just so boring-aru. How come that little fox hasn't shown up yet? We've been waiting all morning..."

"Uh, she should be arriving soon, right?" Shinpachi whispered back, "Even if she doesn't come, Miss Tsukuyo will find a way to lure her over."

"Damn, really, that stinky brat came to Kabukicho with such intentions... and I really thought she had some tragic past! Not only did I take her to the cake shop, but I even took her to my favorite dried food store!" Kagura gritted her teeth, "I really want to punch her hard-aru!"

"Keep your voice down! Those shops were just where you wanted to go, right?" Shinpachi whispered back, "Just indulge her this time. Didn't Jirochou say he would take her back afterwards? But speaking of which, will Gin-san really come?"

"He will definitely come-aru!" Kagura responded, "Little Uncle said so, Gin-chan he is..."

Kagura stopped short of saying the words [sincerely in love].

"But speaking of which, I didn't expect Gin-san to..." Shinpachi murmured, "Well, all we can do is wish them well."

"Stop making noise!" Otose scolded, "Anyone who disturbs an old person's rest, get out!"

"No, your voice is the loudest..." Shinpachi commented dryly.

"Um, isn't it a bit off for a robot to play dead?" Tama suddenly spoke up, "And robots don't bleed; this paint on the ground is useless for robots..."

"Just twist off your head, put it aside, close your eyes, and play dead!" Catherine instructed.

"Understood!" Saying that, Tama's head twisted a few times and rolled off her neck in front of Shinpachi.

"Miss Tama, you're too dedicated! It's just acting; you don't have to make it so realistic!" Shinpachi reminded her quietly.

"Entering feigned death mode..." Tama then closed her eyes.

"ZZZ..."

"Kagura-chan, didn't we say you can't sleep?" Shinpachi reminded helplessly.

"No, it's not me," Kagura replied.

"Ah? Then who?" Saying this, Shinpachi followed the sound and saw Saigou lying on the ground, drooling and sleeping sweetly, even occasionally scratching his belly.

"Its you?!" Shinpachi exclaimed in frustration, then hurriedly whispered a few times, "Mademoiselle Saigou, Mademoiselle Saigou, now is not the time to sleep..."

However, it had no effect; Saigou continued to sleep sweetly.

"Hey! Someone thinks of something! Anyone can hear his snoring!" Shinpachi shouted urgently.

"Don't worry." Kawaki's voice suddenly came from one side.

Immediately, a loud bang sounded.

Seeing Saigou's head smashed into the ceiling, Shinpachi stopped thinking.

"Who else wants to sleep?" Kawaki casually asked, "Those who want to sleep can raise their hands, and you can sleep on the ceiling."

Instantly, everyone in the courtyard held their breath, daring not to make a sound.

"Then that's settled; I'll go up to the roof and enjoy your show." Saying this, Kawaki turned and slowly walked out the door.

...

Elsewhere, Gintoki, carrying a comatose Kurogoma Katsuo who was turning pale, raced to the hospital in Kabukicho.

After handing Kurogoma Katsuo over to the nurses, he left without a pause and rushed back to Otose's snack bar.

Gintoki, panting heavily, pushed open the door of Otose's snack bar, only to find the bar empty and a letter from Otose on the counter.

Looking at the words written in the letter, "I can't stand the rent you owe me anymore. Take those idiots and get out of here. Don't go near this street again—Otose."

Gintoki turned and ran out without stopping, but just as he stepped out of Otose's snack bar, he overheard the whispered conversation of Otae and Kyuubei, who were just passing by.

"Just now, Shin-chan and Kagura-chan rushed out; they just said they were going to the town hall but didn't say what for. I'm still a bit worried," Otae covered her mouth and said to Kyuubei.

"It's probably just a meeting about waste sorting or something," Kyuubei replied casually, "After all, that naturally wavy hair doesn't look like someone who would bother to sort trash properly."

"Indeed..."

Nearby, hearing Otae and Kyuubei's conversation, Gintoki's anxiety intensified, and he turned and ran desperately towards the direction of the town hall.

'Even Kagura and Shinpachi, too... Damn it!!' Gintoki thought furiously, 'I must... I must catch up!!'

...

On the other side, in the Kabukicho Town Hall.

"Oh, what happened here?" Chin Pirako looked at the scene before her, somewhat shocked, and turned to Jirocho, who was sitting under the porch.

"What's wrong? Shocked that things have gone beyond your expectations, so you don't know what to say?" Jirochou chuckled softly.

"I'm scared!" Seeing the scene inside and the courtyard, Chin Pirako exclaimed, "You're truly peerless, Dad! It seems all my little actions were indeed futile! Amazing, not only did you wipe out Otose's family, but even Saigou's forces were completely eradicated!"

"Hmph, it was easy," Jirochou replied nonchalantly.

"So, how does it feel? To personally cut down the woman you liked?" Chin Pirako continued.

"And what about you? How does it feel to play around with old men and women?"

"That's a bit harsh~" Chin Pirako squinted her eyes, complaining with a smile, "It was all for Dad, but it seems Dad saw through it all, beating my plans by wiping out these people first. You truly are peerless, Jirochou."

"No, there's still one left," Jirochou corrected, "There's still that silver-haired kid from Otose's place. It won't be over until he's dealt with."

"After Big Bro, it's that vixen's turn, right?" Chin Pirako said with some anticipation, "Really looking forward to it~."

"Aren't you guys in a cooperative relationship?" Jirochou chuckled.

"It's just mutual use."

"Little fox and vixen, they really do match."

"Well, since I'm here, I might as well check whether that woman is really dead," Chin Pirako said, drawing her sword and stepping through the door, heading straight towards Otose, who was face down on the ground.

Jirochou did not stop her.

"Oh my, she really seems to be dead," Chin Pirako crouched down and placed her hand on Otose's nose, "Her heart has stopped beating, but..."

Saying this, Chin Pirako stood up, her hands gripping her sword hilt tightly, and thrust it directly into "Otose"'s heart, "Just to be safe, let's give her one more strike."

Tss! The sword entered the body, and "Otose" still showed no reaction. Perhaps due to the excitement, Chin Pirako failed to notice that "Otose"'s ears hidden under the hair were slightly pointed...

When Gintoki just stepped into the entrance of the Kabukicho Town Hall, he was shocked and speechless by the scene before him, blood everywhere and bodies scattered all around—hoodlums, transvestites, and Amanto...
