Tajomaru

My Testimony@High Police Commissioner

I met the couple a little past noon.A puff of wind raised her (Masago) hanging scarf.I gagged him with fallen bamboo leaves.I struck down the woman’s small sword without drawing my own.After I ravaged her, she told me that she was willing to leave with me if I killed herhusband.The rope found at the root of the cedar was the one I dropped to untie Takehiro.Furious with anger, he drew his sword.He put up a fight but I killed him with the twenty third sword stroke.I robbed him of his sword bow and arrows.
