The confessions of these two individuals were identical... After performing this extremely bizarre action, the Cat Monk closed in and used his skilled martial arts to knock them to the ground.
Upon learning the details of how these two were captured by the Cat Monk, Aoto felt a sense of déjà vu. It only took a moment of recollection to realize—three months ago, he and Saito had traveled to Fujisawa Inn to capture a notorious gang of bandits. However, as soon as they arrived, they discovered that the bandits they were after had already been apprehended by the Cat Monk.
The experience of that gang of bandits was exactly the same as what these two wanted criminals encountered.
The Cat Monk would suddenly appear, strike an odd pose, shout "The Cat Monk is here," and then use his expert hand-to-hand combat skills to knock them all down.
The Cat Monk caught the criminals for them... This left Hosoi and the other Magistrate's Office officials feeling a mix of emotions.
