I do not own any of the Saiunkoku Monogatari character's they belong to Sai Yukino. I also do not own any of the characters from Rurouni Kenshin they belong to Nobuhiro Watsuki. I am only using them in this story as a fan.
Pro
His majesty Shi Ryuuki sat at his desk reading over the latest report concerning Dr. Komamura the murderous doctor that had begun showing up in China claiming to be able to cure consumption. The "good" doctor was coning people all over China into believing that he could cure consumption but instead would give them poison and then just vanish before anyone noticed it was poison. The report concluded that there was no patterned to where Dr. Komamura would show up or when which was making it more difficult to stop him even though notices had been sent out regarding this matter.
"This is very troublesome. We have already sent out notices to each providence about Dr. Komamura and yet people are still being coned by him. What more can we do?" Ryuuki asked laying the report on his desk.
"Perhaps we should talk to the officials in each providence and have them increasing the number of patrols." Shuuei suggested.
"We need to be doing more than that this is getting serious. Perhaps we can have the patrolmen keep track of all those who suffer from consumption gather them all up into one location in each providence to keep an eye on them and make sure Dr. Komamura can't get to them." The emperor said.
"That is going to be close to impossible your majesty. The villagers will be wary of the patrolman wanting to gather them up not to mention where to put them all." Kouyuu told him.
"Haven't the Department of Imperial Censorate come up with anything more?" The emperor asked.
"Unfortunately no reports of his whereabouts come in too late and he is gone by the time intelligences get to the location. He appears to know poisons if he is able to come into a town and leave before anyone notices their loved ones have been poisoned. And he is obviously knows his way around the country or is a spy/assassin if he has been able to avoid being captured for this long. We are not dealing with a normal human." Shuuei told them and the emperor nodded.
I can't stand people who pray on other people's fears and sorrows." Kouyuu growled.
"We will find him before this gets too much more out of hand." The emperor declared.
Else where
"He's in Saiunkoku providence. You have family there do you not Rem-dono?" Sano asked the red-headed violet eyed girl who stood by the sink cleaning dishes.
"I do have family there thank you so much Sano-sensei for finding out where he is." Rem said bowing before putting the dishes in the cupboard.
"Just beat the crap out of him and make him suffer for what he did to Kenshin." Sano told her and she nodded.
