"There is only the two of us in here," Midori watched the man before her with a solemn look. "Tell me what you really want."
"Isn't it obvious?" With a thoughtful stroke of his chin, he studied Midori, piecing together an impression from her posture and attire.
"I wish to take you as my wife, and establish our baby's rightful status as the heir of the family."

After her life took a turn for the worse, Midori Takigawa transmigrated into a historical romance novel that featured a cannon fodder* who shared the same name.

Thanks to her photographic memory, she practically had the content of the novel at the back of his head. Armed with the knowledge, she grasped a newfound determination. She must change the cannon fodder's fate and live a fulfilled life!

That naturally included making money and finding a worthy father for her unborn baby!
 Naturally, she wanted to do all of these without the slightest coercion!

Midori : Is that my problem?

Future Second Husband 1 : Wench, you are lucky to be betrothed to me. You better marry me now before I change my mind.
Midori : I changed my mind. Bye.
Future Second Husband 1 : Noooooooo~ Midori-chan, don't leave me behind!
 
Future Second Husband 2 : In that case, will you consider me?
Midori : Gladly! What is your name, Sir???

Midori : *sucks in a deep breath* The protagonist!!!

Meanwhile, what about Midori's four elder brothers? Was anyone good enough for their baby sister?

Arata cast a furtive glance through the latticed window towards Midori, seated outside the interrogation room.

"And this Kurosuke-san, how does he look like...?"

A lump formed in Kinta's throat, and he swallowed hard, trying to force down his unease.

"It's the man whose sketch you showed me the last time."

Midori closed her eyes and tilted her head backward.

Kiyoshi was in contact with Kurosuke the day before the Early Spring Festival took place.

Did he know that Kurosuke was an anti-Meiji rebel?

If he didn't know then, he should know now.

Then, what was the reason he went to Kyushu this time around? Was it to meet up with Saigo Takamori directly? To join his forces?

After a moment of silence, Arata asked Kinta one last question, "Do you have anything else to add to your confession?"

"Y-Yes. Kurosuke-san dismissed my service completely soon afterward. That's why I went back to stealing and robbing."
