A Dimensional Journey Begins with the Dragon Clan

"Where's Chadu?" As if he didn't want Orihime Inoue to feel that his state was not right, Kurosaki Ichigo changed the subject while dodging his eyes.

"I didn't see it. At this time... he should be working part-time, right?" Inoue Orihime was slightly taken aback, and replied subconsciously, "I only contacted you, Kurosaki."

"Really...why are you all running here?"

The voice behind the white bed curtain interrupted the chat between the two, complaining slightly, "Mind your own business!"

"Ishida..."

Hearing this, Kurosaki Ichigo and Inoue Orihime both showed concern, "What's going on?"

"I said it's fine, just mind your own business." Ishida Uryu, who was lying on the hospital bed, said firmly.

"Meddling your own business?"

Another sarcastic voice came from the door, "You really are not forgiving."

Kurosaki Ichigo and Inoue Orihime heard the words and looked over.

The person who came was Ishida Uryu's father and also a doctor in this hospital, Ishida Ryuuen.

"I want to decline the visit..." Ishida Uryu turned his head away when he heard the sound, "Let this kind of rash guy come in, what if my wound gets worse?"

"Idiot, who do you think performed the surgery for you?" Ishida Ryuxian snorted coldly, "This thing won't make the wound worse. A kid like you who was almost killed by the enemy, don't tell the doctor what to do." !"

"..."

Ishida Uryu fell into silence upon hearing this.

"Has been chopped off?"

Hearing the conversation between the two, Kurosaki Ichigo was slightly taken aback, and asked, "What's going on! Ishida?"

"It has nothing to do with you." Ishida Uryu was still stubborn.

"How can it be okay!" Kurosaki Ichigo was a little anxious, "You were cut, didn't you? You can't do it alone, so let's do it together!"

"..." Ishida Uryu was silent.

"Talk to me!" Kurosaki Ichigo continued to ask, "Sharing information is very important! Do you want to waste our kindness?"

"shut up!"

Ishida Uryu roared angrily, but the next moment, perhaps the wound was affected, the expression on his face suddenly became ugly.

"Hehe." Seeing this scene, Ishida Ryūxian, who was leaning against the wall, laughed faintly, "It's a pity, if your voice is 5 Hz higher, the wound will open."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Ishida Uryu fell into silence again.

He didn't want to involve Kurosaki Ichigo who had lost his spiritual power at this moment.

Because the guy I met this time is stronger than ever.

Even when faced with a broken face, he never encountered a situation where he was completely unable to react.

"Ishida..." Orihime Inoue also showed worry on his face.

She opened her mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Ishida.

"Sorry, Inoue. I really have nothing to say right now..."

He also didn't want to involve Inoue Orihime, because if Inoue Orihime was in danger trying to help them, it would be more troublesome than that if the man got angry.

"Please go back first."

"……Um."

Hearing this, Kurosaki Ichigo and Inoue Orihime nodded slightly.

"Inoue, you've worked hard. It's so late, shall I take you home?"

Seeing that he didn't seem to be able to ask any questions after staying, Kurosaki Ichigo suggested to Inoue Orihime.

"Huh? No... um... Really?" Faced with this sudden surprise, Inoue Orihime seemed a little surprised, and became flustered.

But just when she was about to agree, Ishida Longxian said, "I'll drive her back. You should go back quickly, too. If it's too late, your father will be troubled."

With that said, the three of them left the ward together.

"Then I will trouble Uncle Ishida, and leave."

Kurosaki Ichigo bowed his thanks, turned around and ran away without looking back.

"what……"

Seeing this, Inoue Orihime seemed a little lost. She looked at Kurosaki Ichigo's running back and shouted, "Kurosaki! See you at school tomorrow!"

"Hey, loud noises are not allowed in the hospital."

Ishida Ryūshū reminded lightly, but his eyes stayed on the back of Kurosaki Ichigo, and he did not bring the topic to the point until he confirmed that Kurosaki Ichigo had left, "You should know, in his current state He shouldn't be involved in such troublesome things."

"Yes... yes." Orihime Inoue nodded slightly upon hearing this, her face became serious, "So... what happened?"

"It wasn't Xu who cut Yulong." Ishida Ryūshin said flatly.

"Huh?" Inoue Orihime seemed a little confused.

"Of course, it's not the god of death." Ishida Ryuzuru continued to explain, "I investigated the Reiatsu left over from Uryu's wound... To be honest, I don't even know if it is Reiatsu, because that is what I have never seen before. Unseen power..."

With that said, he turned and prepared to leave.

"anything else?"

Orihime Inoue followed quickly and asked.

"I don't know the rest."

Ishida Ryūshū shook his head slightly, "That's all I know. In fact, Uryu himself didn't know any information about the enemy. Didn't he tell you anything? Perhaps he was aware of this matter. It's not simple, I don't want to involve you in it."

"How could this be..." Orihime Inoue was even more worried when she heard this.

"In short, if you want to intervene, you'd better ensure your own safety first. After all, if something happens to you, I'm afraid it will make things more troublesome. You should be very clear about it, right?" Ishida Longxian stopped walking, A faint reminder.

"I understand." Orihime Inoue clenched her hands tightly upon hearing this.

"Then... let me tell you my conjecture at the end."

Seeing that the other party understood his reminder, Ishida Ryūxian nodded slightly and continued to add, "According to my speculation...the enemy probably obtained power from something we don't know, judging from the signs of Reiatsu, they are still human!

Compared to the power of Shinigami, that power is closer...to the power of you and Chadu.

If we want to classify, we, as Quincy masters, should be considered the same kind. If the person who attacked Yulong was going to attack the same kind, then you and Chadu might be the next ones to be attacked. "

"..." Hearing this, Inoue Orihime's expression became serious.

"That Yulong guy is still too young. He only thought that he couldn't trap you in trouble, but he didn't think that trouble might come to him by himself." Ishida Ryuxian explained, "I'm telling you this, you should understand For what?"

"Understood, brother, he is not unreasonable. If something really happens, I will explain to him that it is not your problem..." Inoue Orihime nodded slightly.

"Okay then, I'll take you home."

Listening to the other party's answer, Ishida Ryuseki nodded in satisfaction.

···········
"Huh...huh...huh..."

At this moment, Kurosaki Ichigo, who left the hospital, did not follow Ishida Ryuseki's suggestion to go home, but ran crazily on the street until his physical strength was exhausted.

"Damn... what happened?"

He leaned against the wall and beat the electric pole beside the road vigorously, his face was full of anger and unwillingness, "Where I don't know... exactly..."

Now he can't even see his soul.Even if he wanted to help find clues, he couldn't feel any spiritual pressure at all.

"Could it be... I really can't do anything?"

Anger made Kurosaki Ichigo clenched his fists.

Suddenly, it seemed that he remembered something.

His face became serious, he reached out and took out a black card from his trouser pocket, and dialed the number on it.

"Dududu-"

"Hello, this is XCUYION!"

After a while of busy tones, a male voice with a subdued voice sounded from the opposite side.

"Your number has not been registered yet, are you a new member? Please state your name."

"Kurosaki... Ichigo."

Hearing the slightly familiar voice from the opposite side, Kurosaki Ichigo said his name with a gloomy expression.

Although the other party lowered his voice, he probably heard it.

"It's Mr. Kurosaki! I already understand the situation. Welcome to...XCUTION!" However, the person on the other side seemed not to reveal his identity, "Then...Mr. Kurosaki Ichigo, please hang up the phone once."

"Ok?"

"After hanging up, please dial '00800' at the end of this number and hang up before the ringtone rings. Then dial the same number again and hang up when the second ringtone rings. Dial the third time If you make a phone call... you will be connected to Ginjo Kugo-sama."

"Isn't this design too troublesome?" Kurosaki Ichigo looked disdainful.

"Don't say that~ If you don't, we will have trouble here." The person opposite laughed.

"Have you had enough fun? I have something important to talk to you about."

Kurosaki Ichigo didn't seem to be ready to continue playing with the opponent, and called out the opponent's name lightly, "Ginjo Kugo 'sir'."

"Oh, you've been discovered?" Ginjo Kugo replied pretending to be surprised, "It just so happens that I also have something I want to talk to you about. Face to face."

···········
The next day, after class.

Kurosaki Ichigo was preparing to go home as usual.

But Orihime Inoue called out: "Kurosaki! Did you see Chadu today?"

"Huh? Shouldn't he be by your side to protect you?" Kurosaki Ichigo asked with some doubts.

"That's why I'm surprised..."

Inoue Orihime's eyes became a little worried, "I haven't seen him since last night. I thought he left temporarily because he saw that everyone was by my side yesterday and didn't need his protection. But today I haven't seen anyone for a day."

"Is that so..." Hearing this, Kurosaki Ichigo frowned slightly.

"I'm wondering if I should go to Chadu's house to check on the situation? Anyway, school is over, if it's convenient...Kurosaki, can you go with me too?" Saying that, Inoue Orihime's expression became awkward.

"Sorry……"

However, unexpectedly, Kurosaki Ichigo refused, "I have other things today, sorry."

"Ah... this... this way!"

Orihime Inoue breathed a sigh of relief, "That's right, then I'll tell you the situation tomorrow after I go."

She thought about it again, and it seemed that it was indeed her fault.

The current Kurosaki Ichigo will not be able to help even if Chadu really encounters any problems, and asking the other party to go will only make the other party pay more attention to this matter.

The feeling of seeing a companion in trouble but being unable to help...it must be a painful feeling for Kurosaki, right?

"Feel sorry……"

"Apologize for what?"

Kurosaki Ichigo smiled, "Okay, then I'll go first."

"Um……"

"..."

After turning around, Kurosaki Ichigo's face gradually became serious.

Did something happen to Chadu?

What exactly happened...

While thinking, he quickened his pace.

Soon, he came to the place that he had agreed with Ginjo Kugo last night.

Chohara 7-chome, Naruki City.

According to the memorized address, Kurosaki Ichigo soon came to an old apartment here.

Soon, a familiar voice came from behind.

"Yo!"

Ginjo Kugo came over with a chuckle, "Have you arrived early? You are really cautious."

"As I said, I still haven't trusted you." Kurosaki Ichigo replied lightly.

"So... what do you want to talk about?" Ginjo Kugo seemed not to care about Kurosaki Ichigo's distrust at all, and asked lightly, wanting to continue the topic.

"My companion was attacked." Kurosaki Ichigo's tone was equally flat, and mutual distrust did not seem to hinder their conversation.

"So?" Ginjo Kugo raised his eyebrows lightly.

"I hope you can help us." Kurosaki Ichigo said seriously with his eyes slightly fixed.

"Do you want us to help search for the criminal? Don't you distrust me?" Ginjo Kugo asked with a smile.

"You know about my dad, shouldn't he be an ordinary person?" Kurosaki Ichigo didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

"Maybe." Ginjo Kugo replied irrefutably.

"Hey……"

Kurosaki Ichigo frowned slightly, "You should also know the reason, right? Is it interesting to continue going around in circles?"

"Of course, don't trust me, but now... there is no one else to turn to except me. Right?" Ginjo Kugo asked with a smile.

"..." Kurosaki Ichigo silently acquiesced.

"Forget it, then please come with me."

Ginjo Kugo seemed to accept this reason and led Kurosaki Ichigo into the apartment.

"I said I have something to talk to you, right?" On the way, he asked.

"What?" Kurosaki Ichigo frowned slightly, "Is it about my dad?"

"No. It's just a bait to attract your attention." Ginjo Kugo replied lightly, "As for what it is, you can talk about it after you come in with me?"

During the speech, the two had come to a door.

Ginjo Kugo stepped aside, pointed at the door lock and signaled to Kurosaki Ichigo: "Swipe your card here."

"..."

Kurosaki Ichigo silently took out the card.

"drop--"

Accompanied by a crisp electronic sound, the door lock was opened.

Following Ginjo Kugo into it, Kurosaki Ichigo observed the closed and dimly lit room in front of him.

The decor here looks like a hideaway bar, but it's far too quiet for a bar.

I can only vaguely see a few shadows in the dark corner leaning against the sofa or the wall, the only thing in common is... everyone's eyes are almost focused on him who entered the room at this moment.
