I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

The latest website: Hearing what Ogata said, A-Machi also noticed the book lying quietly in an inconspicuous corner of the tent.

Ogata and Machi stepped into the camp one after the other, and picked up the book.

The first impression this book brings to Ogata is thinness.

In terms of thickness, it is about as thick as an adult's little finger.

Ogata let go of the first page of the book, and there was only a short paragraph written on the first page, and this short paragraph instantly attracted the attention of Ogata and A-Machi, and made the two of them feel excited. There was a faint joy on his face.

On the first page of this book it says:

(The first day on the island.

Stationed here with the troops. Not only does this place have a source of water, but there are no ogres nearby. It is indeed the best place to station.

After arriving here, the generals began to set up camp. These generals were worthy of being the elite of the army, and their movements were quite nimble. After a while, the camp was built.

Although we doctors are very relaxed tonight, we just need to sit on the sidelines and watch the generals set up camp, but after tonight, we doctors should also be busy. )

After reading this passage, the happy-faced Machi immediately said to Ogata:

"Ayi! This seems to be a researcher's diary!"

"Finally, we have come across something of value..." After expressing such emotion, Ogata hastily turned to the next page to check what the doctor had recorded in this diary.

Ogata discovers that the diary written by the doctor is not really a diary.

First off - he doesn't record every day. It seems that only after the day's worthwhile events occurred did he record them in this book.

Secondly - the content he records every day is very short, basically just a short paragraph, or just a sentence.

On the next page of the first day of landing on the island, it directly jumps to the fourth day of landing on the island.

(The fourth day on the island.

The generals caught the ogre with fishing nets.

The ogre will only attack living people within sight, so just cover his eyes with a thick black cloth and he will become a dull monster and no longer aggressive.

Although ogres cannot be killed, there are still many ways to deal with them when there are not many of them.

This time, the generals captured a total of 3 ogres, and Mr. Ikeda began to lead us to conduct research on ogres

Our first research is what the shogunate needs to know most - how to kill ogres

I feel like this research will take a lot of time. )

Although Ogata and A-machi didn't know who Ikeda-sama was, from the description of Ikeda-sama between the lines, this Ikeda-sama should be a very powerful doctor who is in charge of all the researchers who landed on the island.

Ogata flipped through several pages.

After this page, the rest of the pages are basically complaints about how boring the research is and how the research process has made no progress. There is nothing worth mentioning.

It wasn't until turning to a certain page at the very back that Ogata's rapidly flipping fingers stopped for a long time again.

(The 29th day on the island.

An accident happened suddenly today.

One of the soldiers in charge of defending us suddenly vomited profusely.

We thought he was just eating the wrong thing.

But who knows, after vomiting violently, his eyes turned purple, and he turned into a living ogre directly.

Living people can also turn into ogres. We already knew about this when the islanders asked the shogunate for help, but after witnessing a big living person turn into an ogre with our own eyes, we still feel quite happy. Terrible.

The soldier who unfortunately turned into a cannibal was trapped by a fishing net and tied to a big tree, making him immobile. )

(The 30th day on the island.

The accident that happened yesterday made everyone's morale and mood very low.

After all, no one wants to be the next poor thing to turn into a cannibal.

To be honest - the shogunate's behavior of forcing us to study how to kill ogres first is really stupid.

Our first research should be to find out why the islanders of this island became ogres.

As long as we find out the cause of the ogre, maybe we can follow the clues to find a way to kill the ogre.

The shogunate's behavior of forcing us to study the method of killing ogres first really makes me dislike it. )

(The 31st day on the island.

Morale is so low that research is no longer possible.

Master Ikeda, who noticed this, sent a letter to the officials in the mainland, clarifying the current situation, and hoped that the shogunate would agree to our withdrawal from Butterfly Island and terminate this research. )

(Day 49 on the island.

The shogunate's reply has arrived—they agreed to terminate the research and let us evacuate the island, which is really gratifying.

But we need to bring back the soldier who unfortunately turned into an ogre, and by the way, bring back the ogres we captured originally.

I've already heard from Ikeda-sama - the shogunate intends to launch a second study on ogres. However, this second field of research is no longer carried out on the island, but on the mainland.

The reason why we want to catch a few ogres when we retreat to the mainland is to prepare the experimental subjects for these two studies.

The doctor who was in charge of the second study was the famous doctor, Sogen Hani.

I hope Master Banjing can find out the source of the ogre and find a way to kill the ogre. )

(Day 52 on the island.

Under the protection of the generals, we began to evacuate.

Everyone just wanted to get out of here quickly, and they didn't have the good mood to pack things slowly and meticulously, so the scene during the evacuation can be described with an idiom as flying around.

I didn't bother to take this diary I wrote casually.

The period of research work on this island is a bad memory that cannot be recalled.

If I take this diary home, every time I see this diary, I can't help but recall my days on this island.

So I plan to discard this diary here as garbage. If someone by chance picks up this diary of mine, you can dispose of it as you like. )

This diary is completely over until this page.

Subsequent pages are all blank.

After writing the last word in this diary, the owner of this diary should have left the island directly with the army.

Ogata closed the diary in his hand.

Like Ah-Ming next to him, the look on his face was not that good-looking.

Although there are many boring contents in this diary, there is a very important piece of information that neither Ogata nor the two can ignore, that is——even people who landed on the island for less than a month may become ogre.

"Why on earth did you become a cannibal..." A-Ming couldn't help but muttered, "I can't figure it out... Zong Hai's mentor has lived on this island for at least several years , but died quietly after death, without becoming a cannibal."

"As for the group of people who landed on the island for research, less than a month after landing on the island, some people began to become cannibals..."
