:46:40
What?! It went to the mansion
of Matsudaira Sahyonosuke?!
:46:43
Yes, sir. From the Akasaka
Gate, to the right, then...
:46:45
...further up Ushinaki Hill via
Omote-Denma Village...
:46:48
...then, down Yagen Hill... past
the Shogunate Sentries' office.
:46:50
No doubt about it, sir.
:46:51
Matsudaira Sahyonosuke, the head of
Joshu-Yada, has a mansion there.
:46:54
As it seemed rather peculiar,
we investigated further.
:46:57
The woman in the palanquin was Lady
Ochiyo, Matsudaira's concubine.
:47:03
Why would Matsudaira's concubine
visit Kurihara?!
:47:06
Mitsu, Kurihara's wife, and this
Lady Ochiyo happen to be...
:47:08
...sisters, blood
relatives!
:47:12
To check, we went to Shiodome, and
checked with some shipping agents.
:47:16
One Kagaya Seibei had two daughters.
The older is the Lady Ochiyo...
:47:19
...concubine to Matsudaira Sahyonosuke,
head of the Yada clan in Joshu.
:47:22
Her sister is the wife of Kurihara Eino-
suke, a close aide to Matsudaira!
:47:25
We have verified
all of this, sirs!
:47:30
Our secrets have spread from Kurihara
to Matsudaira Sahyonosuke.
:47:33
And, from Sahyonosuke to
li the "Kamonnokami?!"
:47:37
So that's how it is.
:47:43
Really... one can never tell
about some people.
:47:47
Well, I for one have always
believed that...
:47:50
...it was rather odd that
Kurihara joined us!
:47:52
So... how shall we
deal with this?
