Runlin Anxi District is a small forest, because it is far away from people, secluded and deep, it is a hidden place for the god of death to practice.

It was already afternoon when we came to the forest, Wuyue searched around along the mountain path, and found a tombstone without words in the depths of the forest.The surrounding area has been cleaned up, revealing a small circle. There are a few bunches of flowers that are about to wither in front of the monument, and it seems that someone has come to pay homage.

Stepping on the rotten branches and leaves, Wuyue stretched out her hand and gently covered the tombstone. A familiar spiritual pressure came from the biting chill. She frowned slightly and closed her eyes as if she couldn't bear to see anything.

Isn't it a bit ridiculous, to use this method in exchange for the residence qualification of the first district.

"I'm afraid... you are not happy..." the girl whispered, her amber eyes dimmed with the sky.

The sound of rotten leaves being crushed faintly came from the woods, and as the sound approached, a gentle question from a man followed, "Hey, why are you sick with bare feet..."

The speaking man was dressed in a black domineering outfit with an orange scarf around his neck. He was originally a handsome boy, but the feather decorations at the corners of his eyes, eyebrows and tails made him a little more enchanting and charming.

"I came here to practice, and I brought some snacks suitable for this season... Do you want to eat some together?"

Muzuki blinked, and suddenly remembered his name - Yumi Ayasegawa.

In the early winter, most of the birds and beasts disappeared. In the bleak atmosphere, the two sat on a stone beside the tomb, chatting casually.

"What happened on the day you went to practice in this world has been reported in the magazine... Although there was an accident, but fortunately most of you came back safely..."

"Is it."

"Sadness is only temporary, Kanna...all this will pass, time can solve all problems..."

"Is it."

"I heard that Captain Kuchiki appointed you as the No.12 seat of the Sixth Division, and you were reused right after graduation! I guess this has something to do with your performance during the internship. 'Assess the situation and make a decisive decision', this is how the captains evaluate you! Distress Standing up to protect your companions at all times, swinging a knife in the face of virtual friends... and..."

Gongqin's eyes were suddenly stained with regret and entanglement, and he sighed, as if he was brewing emotions: "Before the rescue of the fifth team arrived...you who are about to become a huge ghost, you have already held the blade against Your own throat... If Captain Lan Ran hadn't stopped it in time, I'm afraid you would have been splashed with blood on the spot...'Not afraid of life and death', this kind of spirit may be what the people above need most..."

After a long speech, what he got in return was still a calm, "Really."

"Hey..." The beautiful god of death helplessly held his forehead, and spoke in an unlovable manner, "You should give me a little reaction..."

The blond girl was silent, her eyes fixed on the path she came from.

"Senior, you know a lot... But where did these details come from? The editorial office is in the Ninth Division, but there was no one from the Ninth Division at the scene that day..." Wuyue Youyou sighed, her eyes were calm Unlike a living person, "Captain Mayori Nirvana should be very happy. He has obtained a lot of experimental materials. After all, the god of death is blurred, but it is of great experimental value... Even the Zanpakuto is not spared, it is really a technological development Bureau style..."

"Ah! So you remember everything! I saw your blank face and thought you lost your memory after the operation!"

Wuyue looked at the screaming people beside him with distaste, "Why, it seems that all of you think that my mind will go wrong when I wake up?"

"There is no way around this, you said it yourself, this is the style of the Technology Development Bureau..."

Facing the man's agreement, Mutsuki did not respond, but turned to the tombstone with his silent eyes before, "Why, Kamikawa was not recovered... Shiguo asked me to come over after burying it here... Is it because I want you to come here?" Do you mean take it away?"

The girl's voice was small but not weak. After hearing it, Gongqin raised the corners of his lips slightly and answered her, "Just ask her yourself."

The smiling tone made Wuzuki a little confused, she lowered her head, and various images of that night appeared in her mind.

The forest was soaked in the moisture of autumn, and when she was thinking quietly, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly approached.

The two of them looked at the exit of the woods at the same time, and saw a pair of straw sandals coming from the sky, smashing Gongqin's face with anger, and then a bald man in a domineering outfit jumped out, yelling: "Gongqin, you! What the hell is the kid doing! He actually used hell butterflies to send a message asking me to buy girls' shoes! If you want to chase girls, go yourself! Don't get involved with me!"

"Hey! Yijiao! Sober up before you talk!" Gongqin cursed back in a low voice, her fair cheeks flushed suddenly due to anger, "What are you chasing after girls! You are just taking care of patients!"

"Tch!" The bald god of death with red patches on the corners of his eyes let out a dissatisfied voice, and his disgusted eyes fell on the blonde girl, and suddenly, a look of surprise invaded his eyes—"You...you are not dead yet? "

Faced with this unpleasant greeting, Wuyue didn't lose her temper which is rare, she nodded slightly, and replied respectfully: "Yes, thanks to senior, I am standing here well."

The docile attitude made Yijiao more puzzled. He approached, stretched out his hands and patted the girl's head, and said in a high voice: "Ah! It turned out to be like this, so let me see! Has it healed? Where, here or here? It’s not easy to find in the hair! By the way! Can’t you see it if you shave your hair off?”

"A corner! Stop!"

The head that had just woken up was turned over and over by this bald man. Wuyue felt displeased, raised her eyebrows suddenly, her eyes changed suddenly, she looked at the man in front of her sharply, stretched out a finger to poke his heart, and said in a low voice, "Although I have no way to confront you right now, but it’s okay to use the ghost way, so please let go, or I’ll use a white thunder to open a hole in your heart.”

The girl's voice was cold, and the firmness in her eyes made one fearful.

"Oh, brat, this is the usual you!" Yijiao sneered, let go of his hand, and patted the top of her head as if he couldn't help it, rubbing the golden hair, grinning and saying incomparably Chang Kuai, "Don't put on such an unrequited look! Death's life is still long! Seeing your dejected energy, I thought your courage to challenge me back then was taken away! If you didn't, then it's quite Keep your chest up and live on! I'm waiting for you to take back the Zanpakuto and fight against me!"

Senior's words seemed to be a blow to the head, and the previously chaotic brain began to become clear.

Wuyue raised her head, but the god of death beside her had already let go of her hand, and stepped sideways to leave.

"Thank you, Madara-senpai..." She murmured and said slowly.

Hearing the sound, Yijiao didn't answer, but just looked back at her slightly.

Gong Qin next to him sighed, and walked over with straw sandals, "Put on your shoes quickly, we're going to drink next time..."

we?

Wu Yue doubtfully took the things in the man's hands, "Senior, what do you mean...do I want to go too?"

Gongqin bent his eyes and smiled softly, "Otherwise what do you think?"

The sky gradually darkened, and the woods became more and more deserted. Only the deep or shallow smiles of the two gods of death were warmer than everything in this world.

Not a moment later, the three came to an izakaya in Jingling Court.

At night, the lights are twinkling and people come and go. Sitting on the seats and listening to the noise outside, Wuyue feels like everything is in a dream.

The other two chatted about gossip about what they had seen and heard, as if intending to stir up the atmosphere at the table.

"Smile, Kanna! This izakaya's business is very good, many gods of death will come, if other people see your expression, they will misunderstand me and Kazuki to bully you!" The beautiful god of death smiled, holding a wine glass and approached In front of Wuyue.

As soon as the words fell, the reed mat at the door was suddenly lifted, and a girl with short chestnut hair leaned out.

"Your wine is ready..." She smiled and walked in with a tea tray.

That sweet and polite smile froze suddenly after seeing the blond girl by the wall. The girl looked at her in disbelief, as if she had thousands of words stuck in her chest.

There was also a flash of surprise in the amber eyes, Wuyue stared at the person in front of her, trying to pull out a calm and indifferent smile, "Long time no see, Shiguo..."

The sky is clear and the night sky is shining with stars.

Leading Wuyue to the yard, standing in the starlight like water, Hua Ling smiled embarrassedly, lowered her head and said to her, "I went to see you two days ago, and you were still lying in the fourth team... I didn't expect that now ..."

She paused slightly, smiling with relief and guilt, "It's really great, I still have a chance to talk to you..."

After hearing this, Wuyue frowned slightly, as if she was thinking about something, her expression was still calm, and she asked suddenly, bypassing Hualing's words, "Is your body okay?"

"Huh?" Unexpectedly, Hua Ling could only nod her head, and replied falteringly, "Well...it's okay, it works well with the prosthetic now, but...maybe there's no way to do it like before. I used Shunpo... Actually, it's nothing, now I'm doing some paperwork in the [-]th division, Captain Ukitake is pretty good, and there's no team member who looks down on me..."

"That's good." Wuyue slowly closed her eyelids, and when she opened them again, there were stars all over the sky reflected in her eyes.

Suddenly, she said softly, "Today's starry sky is no longer yesterday's starry sky..."

Hua Ling stared at her with a puzzled look on her face, and looked up at the sky, not knowing how to answer.

"I'll go in first, if...you brought me out just to see the scenery..." After a while of silence, Wuyue turned around and wanted to leave.

"Please wait a moment!" The girl in the flowers had a complicated expression, her hands tightly clutching the clothes in front of her, she moved her throat, and solemnly said to the blond girl who was about to leave:

"Maybe you don't want to talk about it anymore! But I still want to apologize to you! I'm sorry! What happened that night is all my fault! Because I, too useless, dragged everyone down! Teacher Zhong, Rumei, Kanna-san... and..."

Speaking of this, Hualing suddenly paused, and said the last name as if exhausting all her courage—"Student Fenghuang Temple!"

The girl standing silently did not give any answer, but just stood there for a long time.

"I used to think...a person who can smile and say that he has killed someone is scary no matter how you look at it! But that day he was the first to rush to save me, even when he encountered a huge void on the way out, also to protect me He was bitten... So, Fenghuang Temple student is really gentle and kind... And I am the chief culprit who killed him!"

In the bleak late autumn night scene, the silence between the girls seemed more and more lengthy.

"I'm sorry!" Hua Ling yelled, and suddenly bent down deeply.

Ugh……

Seeing this, the blond girl sighed silently, she blinked her eyes, suppressed the sadness and helplessness in her eyes, turned around, walked to Hua Ling, and gently raised her hand on top of her head.

She patted Hua Ling's head.

"Autumn is almost over, and I haven't eaten a piece of hagi cake yet... If you are free today, can you buy some for me?"

The girl with her head down was stunned suddenly, her astonished eye sockets slowly soaked into mist, and crystal tears rushed out one by one.

She cried loudly, "I... I'm going now!"

In the wine room, the two people who had been left behind by Wuyue exchanged glasses, and there were already several empty wine bottles piled up on the table.

"I said...why did that girl go...couldn't she have escaped?" The bald God of Death frowned halfway, his face stained a few shades of crimson, he put down his wine glass and looked towards the door.

"How come, her stubborn temper...should be sure to drink you down..." Gongqin smiled, eyes narrowed.The soft footsteps unique to women came from outside the corridor. The handsome man raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Look, isn't this here?"

"Tch." Yijiao snorted coldly, "Are you drunk? This is not Kanna's Reiatsu..."

As soon as the voice fell, the door curtain was lifted slightly.

"Kana-san, I've already left..." Hua Ling stood at the door and said to the two with a smile, "This is the hagi cake she wrote for the two seniors, and she said... it was a return gift of 'snacks, wine and shoes' ..."

Two plates of exquisite snacks made of red beans and glutinous rice are placed in the center of the table, a touch of sweet red looks incompatible with the surrounding wine and meat.

Yukino suddenly chuckled, took a bite of the hagi cake, and said to the girl who was about to go out, "Kanna... did you go back alone?"

"No." Pausing in her tracks, Hua Ling turned around and replied with a smile, "She just met Captain Aizen, and she seems to have learned something... It looks like she's going to Run Lin'an..."

The two people at the table froze suddenly, and there was no drunkenness in the gathered pupils.

"Why is she going there so late..." Yijiao lowered her eyes and her voice was serious.

"Isn't it obvious?" Gongqin narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned over the table and put his chin on one hand, "Because of the Zanpakuto buried there... only half of it is left..."
