Chapter 11 Night Talk

July 997, 7, evening.

In the past two days, Yilong visited many nobles one after another...most of them were not the ones in charge of the family, but most of them were direct descendants or close descendants with the right to inherit.

Moreover, most of them have different ideas from those of the current head of the family. Some do it for profit, some for ideals, and some... simply because of emotional disagreements.

After a tiring day, Yilong returned to his room in the Second Division. When he opened the door, he found... Soi Fong was sitting cross-legged, practicing sword Zen, and waiting for him.

"Hmm? Captain? Do you want this?" Yilong said, making a drinking gesture.

When Soi-Fong heard this, the veins on her head bulged.

"Don't you have anything else to say? I remember I just told you two days ago that you should be [cautious and low-key] recently. Do you remember?" asked Soi-Feng unhappily.

"That's right. I didn't go to inspect other teams these past two days. I just hung out with the nobles and did my daily public relations..." Yilong said as if he was super honest.

"Really? Then why recently... I mean in recent years, many of your public relations targets have shifted to those side branches that are not direct descendants, especially those with competing relationships? During this closed meeting in Qingjing Tower Julin, the head of your Shifengyuan family will confirm your affairs with many other families, right?" Seeing that she was playing dumb, Soi-Fong spoke frankly.

Yilong was not surprised by Soi-Fong's intelligence network.

After all, in addition to being the captain of the Second Division, Soi-Fong is also the commander-in-chief of the secret mobile force and the commander of the Criminal Army Corps. The intelligence network she controls is definitely not comparable to that of an ordinary captain...

What is the “Secret Mobile Force”?

Many new Death Gods are about to think that the Second Division is the Secret Mobile Force, and the Secret Mobile Force is the Second Division...

But it’s not actually the case!

From an administrative perspective, the "Secret Mobile Force", "Kidōshu", and "Gotei 13" are organizations of the same level and are all direct subordinates of Mao's Forty-sixth Office.

The secret mobile force is divided into five major corps, the first of which is the "Criminal Corps".

In other words...

The commander-in-chief of the Secret Mobile Force, the commander of the Criminal Army, and the captain-in-chief of the Gotei 13 and the captain of the First Squadron are theoretically of the same rank!

Of course, it is only "theoretically" the same as the captain-in-chief.

In fact... Soi-Fong only receives her salary from the 46th Chamber, which is the same as Captain-General Yamamoto!

In other aspects, from fund allocation to distribution of power and responsibility, the "Secret Mobile Force" has long been crushed by the "Gotei 13".

In order to maintain the operation of the "Secret Mobile Force", Soi-Fong even ordered many of her subordinates to work part-time in the "Second Squad" and the "Secret Mobile Force", and their powers and responsibilities were also merged...

This gave many new Death Gods the illusion that the two were the same thing!

As for the "Kidoshu", it's even worse. Not only is its organization incomplete, but even after the Great and Deputy Ghost Chiefs defected a hundred years ago, no new Ghost Chiefs were appointed. Now it has almost become a "Kido Research Institute" and the "Kido Assistant of the Gotei 13."

The "three major armed forces" under the jurisdiction of the 46th Chamber have long been dominated by the "Gotei 13" - therefore, Ichiryu firmly believes that his review and control of the captain-general are all far-sighted, selfless and impeccable!

As the commander-in-chief of the secret mobile force, with the same salary as old man Yamamoto, Soi-Fong's intelligence network is still very complete...

"Are you still thinking about something rude?" Broken Bee asked keenly.

"Ahem, of course not! I just think... well, as the God of Death, the most important thing for us is humanity. We can't regard ourselves as weapons. The relationship between people is the most important. The idea of ​​getting close to whoever is in power is not good..." Yilong began to talk about chicken soup.

But Soi-Fong was obviously not the type to get drunk after drinking chicken soup. She just watched him talk nonsense silently, neither interrupting nor refuting...

Seeing Soi-Fong's reaction, Ichiryu knew that he couldn't handle it, so he said directly: "Um, okay, I will be well-behaved from now on! As for the head of the family... don't we still have you, the captain?" He said this in a flattering tone.

Soi-Fong comes from the lower-class noble family of Bee. Her real name is Aya Hachisho. "Sai-Fong" is the name of her position as a retainer of the Shihouin clan, and Soi-Fong has always referred to herself as this to external parties.

After all, the reason why she can have such a status is that she now represents the "Shihouin clan" and has inherited the "legacy" of the old patriarch Yoruichi after his defection to the greatest extent.

Even though the Shifengyuan clan had recovered a lot of their vitality under Yilong's plan, they were unable to take it back for the time being.

After all, Soi-Fong has always considered herself a retainer of Shihouin, and the new head of the family doesn't want to fall out with her easily...

The head of the family had always wanted to facilitate her marriage with the head of the family, but due to the interference of Youlong, he never succeeded.

It was also from then on that, within the Shihouin clan, Ichiryu was no longer "a lackey who was deeply loved by the head of the family and the head of the family", and gradually turned into "a family elder of a side branch who clung to each other with the retainers."

"Don't give me that. Don't expect me to help you!" Soi-Fong said righteously.

"Eh? Captain, you don't want to marry the head of the family, right?" Yilong asked in surprise.

"Oh, it doesn't matter. It's just wearing a wedding dress once." Soi-Fong looked nonchalant.

"I see..." Yilong looked as if he was suddenly enlightened, which made Soi-Fong feel uncomfortable.

But Soi-Fong had already stood up and left - even if she continued to say more, Ichiryuu would not take it to heart.

"Captain." Yilong called out to Soi Feng again.

"Huh?" Soi-Feng paused but didn't look back.

"You really don't want to drink?" Yilong said and made a drinking gesture again.

Broken Bee: ...

……

In the blink of an eye, a week passed.

August 8st, Soul Society, Seireitei, the 1nd Division barracks.

Soi-Fong was a little touched at this moment. Yilong actually behaved so well after that night. He didn't leave the barracks again and seemed very low-key.

This level of obedience was only seen when “that incident” happened…

It even made Soi-Fong wonder if something happened after she got drunk.

at the same time……

"So slow, so slow, so slow... How can a man be so slow?" Yilong seemed to be unable to wait any longer, so he took a deep breath, and his spiritual pressure became "illusory".

"Hmm?" Soi-Fong suddenly realized that there was something wrong with Ichiryu's spiritual pressure.

All of a sudden, the feeling of being touched just now disappeared, and I thought to myself: He is doing something secretly again!

So he came to Yilong's room with great momentum and opened the sliding door with a "clatter"...

Duang——

Accompanied by the sound of the door frame hitting the wall, Soi Fong appeared at the door of Ichiryu.

"Captain Soi-Fong? What's the urgent mission? I'm really sorry, but I made a small mistake when I was practicing the ghost art just now. I'm afraid I'm not in good condition now."

I saw that Yilong's face was a little pale at this time, and his spiritual pressure was indeed a little unstable...

Chapter 12 Lucky? Coincidence?

"What were you doing just now?" asked Broken Bee with a stern face.

"Practice the ghost way." Yilong insisted on this matter and had an expression that said "Didn't I say so?"

Soi-Feng stared at him, then looked around the room. She indeed did not notice anything unusual. The same bed, the same low table, the same futon...

Just as Soi-Fong's eyes swept towards the wash basin beside her...

"Captain, don't stare at a man's room like that!" Yilong pretended to be embarrassed.

Broken Bee glared at him immediately, but since she didn't see anything, she could only say, "I'm going to go out for a while today, so don't cause any trouble!"

"Of course, I never do that, right?" Seeing Soi-Fong glaring at him, Ichiryu added, "Today... I am indeed planning to just take a rest."

After hearing this, Soi-Fong turned around and left.

At this time, Yilong just lay down and said to himself: "It should be in time now..."

……

In the present world, in the basement of Urahara Shoten.

"Ok?"

Urahara, who was maintaining the gate, suddenly let out a slight groan of doubt.

"Mr. Urahara, what's wrong?" Tessai, who was assisting, asked in confusion.

"It seems like there's something... Never mind, it's nothing." Urahara said, shaking his head.

At this time, in the "Dangai" behind the gate, Ichigo and his group, who were originally in a hurry and were being chased by the "Kuru" all the way...

No one noticed that the pendant in Ichigo's arms flickered slightly at this moment, and then...

Something even more terrifying appeared!

"Oh no! It's Jutu! Run faster, faster! We'll be dead if we get caught!" Ye Yi, who turned into a black cat, urged hurriedly.

At the same time, Yoruichi cursed in his heart - is Kisuke reliable? The probability of encountering "Kuto" is already low, and he can still catch up with it...

Didn’t he check it when he opened the passage before?

The group was chased by "Jutu", and finally reached the other end, the exit of Soul Society, before Yoruichi could no longer help but take action.

Ichigo's companion, Inoue Orihime, was also able to block the "Kudo" slightly with her own unique ability.

Yoruichi was also surprised by this - this could be blocked? Nothing happened? Should I say this is lucky... or unlucky?

Anyway, everyone finally arrived at Soul Society safely, and the worst-case scenario was Ichigo, who just fell headfirst.

only……

"Huh?" Ye Yi immediately sensed the problem with the "timeline" node.

He immediately realized that the "Ju Tu" attack had still had some impact on him.

The difference between "Soul Society" and "the real world" is not just a matter of "different space", but two different dimensions - not just different in the sense of "space".

Although time usually passes at the same rate, when traveling through the Dangai, this kind of time anomaly will occur extremely rarely - they left the human world from Urahara Shoten on August 8, and now... it is August 7.

Time in the broken world is originally confusing. If they return to the present world now, will they see their past selves?

According to the time and space rules of this world, if they return now, they will definitely encounter "Jutu" again, and it is impossible for them to return to the present world before "August 8".

Although there is now an Ichigo, Uryu... and even Yoruichi in Soul Society and the real world, as long as we don't go through the Dangai and don't actually travel back and forth between the two worlds, it has no practical significance and cannot be considered a time and space paradox.

This situation is also very rare. Generally speaking, if the timeline changes too drastically, they will be lost in the broken world forever and will never be able to come out!

For a moment, Ye Yi felt more and more strange...

What a coincidence!

Seeing the solemn look on the face of the "Black Cat", Ishida Uryuu, dressed as a Quincy, asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Is this Soul Society?"

Look around now, the buildings are ancient and quaint, just like the set of a movie or TV series.

"That's right, this is Rukongai on the outskirts of Soul Society... Well, it's not far from Seireitei where the Shinigami live." Yoruichi said as he looked at a group of buildings not far away that had a clearly different style.

But Ichigo was not listening at all at this time, but was looking for something on the ground with his butt sticking up.

"Kurosaki-san, what's wrong? Is something missing?" Orihime asked with concern.

"Ah! Found it, found it... If I don't take it back, my legs will definitely be broken." Ichigo breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the pendant.

"Hmm? This is..." Orihime was confused at first, then asked in surprise: "Could it be... a girl..."

"Of course not! This is a pendant my father gave to my mother." Ichigo said honestly.

"By the way, I've never heard Kurosaki-san mention his father...ah! Sorry." Orihime herself is "equivalent" to having no parents, but she asked the question because her mouth was faster than her brain, and immediately worried that this was Ichigo's pain point.

"No, no, no, it's nothing... My dad is still alive. But although mom told me and my sisters since we were young that he was busy working far away and could only come back for two days on August 15th every year, but... when we grew up, we naturally understood that he should be a prisoner who could go out for a few days every year." Ichigo said pretending to be indifferent.

Well, compared to being too busy working in other places, it is obviously more reasonable to be a "prisoner in custody" and be able to go home for two days at a fixed time every year because of good performance!

"August 15th... Then we have to work harder, there are still seven days." Yu Long was standing aside at this time, as if saying "Defeat the Soul Society as soon as possible and finish work as soon as possible, so that you won't miss your father."

"No, there are still fourteen days." Ye Yi corrected at this time.
