Kenshin receives a request from the police chief, asking for his help to take down "Kurogasa," a serial killer who has been repeatedly targeting former Revolutionary warriors. Kenshin and Sanosuke go to escort Jusanro Tani, who received a letter containing a death threat. As warned in the letter, at 1:00 a.m. sharp, Kurogasa appears. His true identity was Jine Udo, a vagabond slayer who had made a name for himself in the assassination business since the Bakumatsu Era.
their bodies suddenly stopped moving
as if petrified.
توقّفت أجسادهم عن الحركة فجأة 
.وكأنّهم صاروا حجارة
dass sich sein Körper plötzlich nicht
mehr bewegte, als ob er gefesselt wurde.
de repente se quedaron inmóviles,
como si fueran víctimas de un hechizo.
estaban como petrificados,
no podían moverse.
a déclaré qu’il s’était senti paralysé
d’un coup d’un seul.
जैसे उनके शरीर अचानक थम गए
और पत्थर बन गए।
gli sembrava di non riuscire più a muoversi,
come se fosse stato paralizzato.
в момент нападения его словно
околдовали — и он не мог двинуться!
