Hotarubi heard a woman talking to her and turned back towards the man, she was a little surprised at first, the man did not look japanese at all, what's more she found his clothes to be quite strange and his sword even more.

"Oh ..Yes thank you. Being good with the sword in not something people look with good eyes at anymore.."
Hotarubi lamented.
Soon after the female finished talking three magistrated ran to the european man and female ronin.

"We got a report an aoto gang was causing trouble here, you two, what are you doing here?
One of the magistrates said.

"If you don't answer now we will cut you down!"
Another magistrate shouted ashe pulled out his katana.

"Right now you are under suspect of cooperating with the Aoto gang, come with us to the magistrate oficce, we shall interrogate you there. If you are not guilty you wont nothing to fear"
The third magistrate said

Hotarubi sighed, she just arrived and was already in trouble, she looked at Casimir for a few seconds and then nodded to the magistrates, accepting to go with them
