[Hijikata was surprised when he received the order to not arrest everyone who stepped even a toe out of line on sight. Physically demanding it may be, he'd rather shove someone into a truck and be done with them rather than get into an argument about 'rights'.
Those don't apply when you're throwing Molotov cocktails through someone's window.
But an order is an order, so despite how he'd rather put the asshole who spat at his feet on the ground, he just monitors the man's path until he's out of sight. Such goes his evening, his partner doing much the same - and he assumes doing so much even as she falls behind him.
As he's raising a cigarette to his lips he feels a tug on his sleeve, but only after he's placed it in his mouth does he stop walking.] Huh? [A break?
Hijikata surveys the area - most people are keeping their heads down - before nodding.] Sure. I'll keep a look out. [They'll do just as well 'monitoring' from a seated position as a walking one, so there's no reason to protest.]
