I'm in Bleach, starting with Unlimited Blade Works.

After all, he had been the captain of the Gotei 13 for decades. If he couldn't even afford a small building in Seireitei, then Erin was really doing too poorly.

Not to mention, Haruko Kuchiki is the eldest daughter of the Kuchiki family. With just a word, Erin can choose any of the houses in Seireitei.

Haruko didn't ask any questions about Erin's sudden desire to move out of the Kuchiki family home, and simply followed Erin out.

Of course, Haruko Kuchiki also knew that something must have happened to cause Erin to have a grudge against the Kuchiki family, which would lead Erin to make this decision.

"Dong dong dong..."

"Who would come so late?"

A soft knock came at the door, and Haruko's nostrils twitched involuntarily, a hint of displeasure in her voice.

She was most annoyed when she and Erin were alone together and someone disturbed her.

"Go open the door, Haruko, it's Rukia."

"Rukia?"

Upon hearing Erin's words, Haruko instantly forgot her displeasure and got up to open the door for Rukia.

"Wow, it really is Rukia."

"Come here, Rukia, let your aunt give you a hug..."

Before Hisa passed away, Haruko and Hisa got along very well.

As Hishin's younger sister, Haruko naturally favors Rukia because of her sister's affection.

It can be said that during the years Rukia lived in the Kuchiki family, the person closest to her was neither Erin nor Byakuya, but Haruko.

However, after Rukia joined the 13th Division and became a Shinigami, she no longer lived in the Kuchiki family home.

It's been more than two years since Haruko and Rukia last saw each other.

"My dear aunt..."

As Erin's bedmate, Haruko naturally knew Erin's thoughts. Therefore, she never let Rukia call her "teacher's wife," but instead had Rukia call her "aunt," just like her sister.

"Oh dear, Rukia, look at her, she's gotten so thin..."

After bringing Rukia home, Haruko and Rukia exchanged pleasantries.

However, Haruko was no ordinary woman.

She knew that Rukia must have something to ask Erin for since she came here so late, so she stopped talking to Rukia and pulled her towards the pond.

"Rukia, your teacher is right there. If there's anything you need to say, go and talk to your teacher. I'll go make some side dishes now, and I'll prepare them for you to enjoy with your drinks after you've finished chatting."

"Ah."

Nodding to Haruko, Rukia waited until Haruko's figure disappeared around the corner before coming up behind Erin.

"teacher."

"Ugh……"

Upon hearing Rukia's voice, Erin let out a sigh.

"I always thought that this time you would give me a satisfactory answer, but I really didn't expect that you would actually convince Rukia."

"Kisuke Urahara, as expected, is the intellectual ceiling among the Shinigami."

"Am I right, Lord Yoruichi?"

"Oh? I didn't expect that after all these years, Erin, you would still remember me."

A deep male voice rang out, and a black cat leaped down from the wall of Erin's yard and came to stand in front of Erin.

"Mr. Yoruichi?"

Rukia exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the black cat.

The reason she came to find Ms. Erin was that the black cat had found her and told her something.

"Mr. Yoruichi?"

Erin chuckled lightly, "Rukia, you actually call her Yoruichi-san?"

"What's wrong, teacher? Is there something wrong with how you address me?"

"Hmm, wrong gender."

Since Yoruichi Shihouin came to see him in her cat form, she clearly did not want to reveal her identity and alert Aizen, so Erin had no intention of exposing her.

Watching the battle of wits between two intellectually gifted characters in Bleach when bored is one of the few forms of entertainment Erin has these days.

You should call her Miss Yoruichi.

"what?"

Rukia was surprised. She glanced at the black cat and asked in confusion, "But teacher, Yoruichi's voice is a man's voice."

"Sound is something that can be produced by vibrating spiritual particles, as long as one has strong enough control over them. It's not a particularly advanced technique."

Erin's mouth didn't move, but Rukia and Yoruichi both heard Erin's voice.

Yoruichi Shihouin was no less surprised than Rukia, who was seeing this technique for the first time.

"Yoruichi, Miss?"

After witnessing Erin's actions, Rukia hesitated for a moment before softly calling out to Yoruichi.

"Ah, you don't need to worry about it, Rukia."

"I am indeed a woman."

Yoruichi Shihouin's original voice came from the black cat's mouth, causing Rukia to breathe a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, this time the address wasn't wrong.

But how did the teacher know that Yoruichi-san was a young lady?

Could it be?

The image of her teacher holding up a black cat by its limbs to check its gender flashed through her mind, and Rukia shuddered.

Can't think, can't think!

"Even though Rukia is here, I knew you had already convinced her, but I still want to hear how you got Rukia to convince me?"

"Ah, it's not a difficult thing."

Yoruichi Shihouin flicked her tail, her eyes, like Erin's, fixed on the school of fish vying for bait on the hooks in the pond.

Rukia knelt behind Ms. Erin, sitting upright.

Rukia is still completely bewildered.

She couldn't understand why, after all she had encountered was an attack at Vice Captain Haiyan's house, the young lady had said that only she could provide evidence against Seireitei that very night.

too exaggerated!

"Urahara just asked me to explain some things to Rukia, and then have Rukia say a word to you."

"What?"

"Rukia, you should say those words to Captain Erin yourself."

"?"

Rukia looked up, puzzled, at the black cat in front of her.

Wasn't that the sentence you asked me to say?

Why did you come in person, yet still make me the one to speak?

Seemingly seeing Rukia's confusion, Yoruichi Shihouin explained to her, "Rukia, some things only have an effect if you say them yourself."

"If I can't do what I say, I'm afraid your teacher will beat me to death."

"Haha, how could that be?"

Rukia shook her head: "Why would the teacher kill Yoruichi for no reason?"

"Yes, Lord Yoruichi, you're overestimating my danger, aren't you?"

Erin picked up where Rukia left off, grabbed a handful of bait from a small basin beside him, and gently tossed it into the pond.

"No matter what, Yoruichi and Captain Urahara are people who have helped me, and I also owe Urahara a favor. How could I possibly kill Yoruichi?"

"Who would know about that kind of thing?"

Yoruichi Shihouin shook her head, neither confirming nor denying what Erin had said.

"Alright, Rukia, now say the phrase I taught you."

"Ah."

After nodding, Rukia coughed a few times and then straightened her chest.

"Teacher, please do not interfere in the incident at Vice Captain Haiyan's house."

"I have asked Ms. Yoruichi to help me find out who attacked me."

"When I grow up, I will personally go after these people's families, restore all the reputation they caused to my teacher by attacking me, and elevate my teacher's reputation to a whole new level!"

After saying these words, Rukia seemed to lose her spirit and knelt down again.

"Teacher, I'm done talking."

"Heh, so this is your method."

Erin scoffed.

"As expected, he is the smartest person among the Grim Reapers."

"If you can't solve the problem, solve the person who caused it."

“You know, the reason I get angry and upset is because the people around me have been bullied.”

"As you all know, I maintain a wait-and-see attitude towards the growth of my disciples and will not interfere with their growth."

Chapter 246 The spirit remains go to war

"So you've treated this incident as a trial for Rukia."
