“Slap!”
A pair of flip-flops landed directly on Urahara Kisuke's head.
The sudden scene caused the two who were chatting happily to freeze.
Then, a furious roar came.
“Damn you! You made me wait so long, and you're here chatting! Damn it… Go die!”
“Aaah…” Urahara Kisuke, not acting like a captain at all, screamed.
Thus, Sarugaki Hiyori, exasperated, grabbed Urahara Kisuke's collar and dragged him towards the Twelfth Division.
“Genji-kun! Let's chat next time!”
“Slap!”
“Let's go! Damn it! There's so much to do in the division! Don't push it! Hey!”
Hearing Sarugaki Hiyori's roar, Genji Takamitsu twitched his lips, then turned around expressionlessly and left.
However, they didn't notice a figure in the corner where they had been talking, pushing up their black glasses.
“I see… Urahara Kisuke has noticed… Or perhaps he’s just curious! What will you do? Urahara… Kisuke!”
After speaking, Aizen Sosuke pushed up his black-framed glasses, his gaze falling on Genji Takamitsu's figure in the distance.
“Genji Takamitsu… It seems it’s time to find an opportunity to talk. What do you think? Tousen!”
A black shadow flashed, and Tousen Kaname appeared in front of Aizen Sosuke, speaking.
“I understand! Aizen-sama!”
Aizen Sosuke smiled slightly, raising the corner of his mouth: “On this grand path, our comrades will grow in number, won’t they? Tousen… And Gin!”
“Of course!” At this moment, another young figure appeared behind Aizen Sosuke.
As the light moved, the young figure in the shadows, like a fleeting shadow, revealed a fox-like smile.
“That’s right! Aizen… Vice-Captain!”
…
More than ten days had passed since the last conversation with Urahara Kisuke.
One day, Genji Takamitsu was passing by the First Aid Station when he suddenly heard something that caught his attention.
“Hey, have you heard?”
“What? So mysterious?”
“Shh… Be quiet! Let me tell you. I heard that a while ago, Captain Urahara of the Twelfth Division led more than ten team members on a mission, but people saw that when he came back, only Captain Urahara was back alone! And he looked really solemn!”
“Hiss… No way… You mean…?”
“Hey, be quiet! You can’t talk about this so openly!”
Although it was just a few words, Genji Takamitsu still guessed a possibility.
That is, Urahara Kisuke must have gotten a clue about the disappearance of souls, so he gathered people to go and suppress them.
However, it seems that it was a trap. Urahara Kisuke seemed to have been tricked!
“It’s Aizen…” Genji Takamitsu murmured, arms crossed.
“Swish!”
Suddenly, Genji Takamitsu felt a familiar spiritual pressure in front of him.
“Hiyori… How come you’re here?!”
Genji Takamitsu was surprised to see Sarugaki Hiyori, the Vice-Captain of the Twelfth Division, suddenly appear in front of him.
“Don’t waste time! Come with me!”
Sarugaki Hiyori seemed very anxious. She didn’t have time to chat with Genji Takamitsu and directly pulled on his sleeve, bringing him to a secluded corner.
“I want to talk to you about something!”
Seeing Sarugaki Hiyori's serious expression, Genji Takamitsu was taken aback, but nodded and said, “What’s wrong?”
Sarugaki Hiyori remained silent for a while, then said, “You… Tell me honestly… That Urahara guy… Is he a good person?”
Hearing this question, Genji Takamitsu felt a little strange. He asked, “Why do you ask that? By the way, I just heard people at the First Aid Station talking. He took his team on a mission, but it seems that only he came back. Could it be that…?”
Sarugaki Hiyori nodded and said, “That’s right! That Urahara guy… He secretly gathered the team members of the Twelfth Division and carried out a secret suppression operation! But I followed him before the operation!”
Genji Takamitsu hurriedly asked, “What happened?”
Sarugaki Hiyori said in a low voice, “That day, I saw that Urahara guy leading his team into a house. Before I could rush in, I saw the house suddenly explode!”
“The explosion was loud. After the intense flash of light, I rushed in immediately!”
Sarugaki Hiyori paused and said, “You wouldn’t believe what I saw! In front of Urahara, all the team members were lying unconscious. Most importantly, Urahara was unscathed, but those team members… There weren’t even any souls left!”
Hearing this, Genji Takamitsu’s eyes narrowed, and he muttered, “It was a trap…”
Then, Sarugaki Hiyori continued, “I asked him what happened! Urahara… Urahara actually said to me… to me… that it was nothing serious…”
Only then did Genji Takamitsu notice that tears had already flowed from the corners of Sarugaki Hiyori’s eyes.
Sarugaki Hiyori sobbed as she said, “That bastard… What did he think the lives of his team members were… He was so indifferent! That bastard…”
Sarugaki Hiyori wiped her tears, then looked at Genji Takamitsu and said, “I suspect that the so-called mission was just an excuse made by that Urahara guy. He must have used the team members of the Twelfth Division to do some kind of strange experiment! And it’s an experiment using Soul Reaper souls!”
“I see… So this is why you asked me if Urahara Kisuke was a good person?” Genji Takamitsu suddenly realized.
“That’s right!” Sarugaki Hiyori clenched her fists, seemingly very angry whenever she mentioned Urahara Kisuke.
Seeing Sarugaki Hiyori’s agitated state, Genji Takamitsu smiled and said, “Hiyori… The reason you came to ask me might be because you don’t believe Urahara Kisuke is a bad person either!”
Sarugaki Hiyori turned her head away, not looking at Genji Takamitsu’s face, and said reluctantly, “After all… Captain Kiryu also trusted him, so he gave him the Twelfth Division! Since Captain Kiryu trusts him, then he… must be a good person!”
“Heh…” Genji Takamitsu laughed, “Hiyori, you are a bit cute…”
“Shut up…” Sarugaki Hiyori blushed and said embarrassedly.
“Ahem…”
Then, Genji Takamitsu spoke seriously, “You can always believe that Urahara guy… Although he’s a bit unkempt and seems a bit frivolous! But… Urahara is definitely a reliable guy!”
