I'm really not the number one slacker in Soul Society.

But Soi Fon seems to have plenty of stamina.

Moreover, she is a stealthy mobile operator, incredibly fast.

Alright! You're chosen as today's errand boy!

After making up her mind, Mijin immediately tripped and fell on the spot with sincere acting skills.

"!"

Soi Fon was startled and immediately reached out to help Yama up: "Are you alright?"

"It's nothing..." Mima wiped the dust off her face. "I'm just not feeling well... Could you do me a favor?"

"help?"

Perhaps because she had already heard a lot from Mima today, Soi Fon nodded subconsciously.

"Take me to the Technology Development Bureau, and quickly!"

Chapter 115: A Second Visit to the Technology Development Bureau

Soi Fon paused for a moment, then stared at Yama for two seconds.

"no problem."

Broken Bee nodded.

Then, without hesitation, he grabbed Mima by the belt, threw her into the air, hoisted her onto his shoulder, and began to run away.

Mima: "..."

Okay, compared to the more strenuous princess carry or piggyback ride, this method is indeed more reasonable.

It just looks a little strange.

After all, humanoid creatures experience considerable jolting when running at high speeds, which causes...

"Let's talk, let's talk, let's talk—"

Swaying like seaweed in the wind, Mima said in a trembling voice, "I have another question. What exactly is the effect of your 'Bankai'? Is it to create a huge explosion?"

"...Not entirely accurate, but that's roughly the gist of it."

The strange statement made Soi Fon's lips twitch slightly: "Although I don't really like it."

"Why...why? Aren't you very strong?"

"It's not a matter of strength... The Suzumebachi Raikoubu is completely out of step with the stealth and mobile warfare style. Am I supposed to carry that thing on missions from now on?"

"So it was originally called the Sparrow Bee Thunder Whip?" Mi Zhen, who had gradually adapted to the bumpy ride, spoke more fluently. "I don't think so—after all, the Execution Army is a combat unit. Although it has the requirement of covert operations, its fundamental purpose is still to kill people."

"How can a scene like that... that kind of massive explosion be kept secret!"

"So, killing everyone who discovers you and killing everyone you discover makes no difference, since nobody discovers you anyway."

"what……"

Mima's perplexing logic stunned Soi Fon, causing her to fall into deep thought.

Mima himself also pondered some peculiar questions.

As is well known, the shape of the Bee Thunder Whip is that of a shoulder-fired man-portable missile.

But such a thing doesn't exist in the present world at this point in time...

So heaven knows where the shape of the swan-bumblebee thunderbolt came from.

Furthermore, the fact that Shikatori Hakunsai from a thousand years ago was wearing glasses, and that the Technology Development Bureau was already using electronic displays, suggests that while Soul Society's technology may seem backward, it is actually at least ten levels ahead of the human world...

Now that you mention it... should I try to get a gun to play with sometime? Maybe I can find one at the Technology Development Bureau?

"arrive."

After a brief moment of thought, Mima suddenly heard Soi Fon's voice.

The doors of the Technology Development Bureau were now in front of him.

As expected of the future captain of the second division, he runs even faster than Western reporters.

Mizhen nimbly rolled over and landed on the ground, then walked straight into the Technology Development Bureau without pausing.

But after a few steps, he stopped and turned to look at Soi Fon, who was still standing there.

Seeing that Mi Zhen was moving without any problems, she waved her hand and prepared to turn around and leave: "Then I'll take my leave. I'll go see if I can help others."

"Wait a minute!"

Mima immediately reached out to stop him.

"Ok?"

“Since you don’t have any missions, wait for me a moment,” Mima said. “I have something to ask you later.”

Having used Soi Fon as a tool for half a day, and getting used to it, Mima thought he could get another free hit from Suzumebachi Raikouben.

Since that thing is just sitting there anyway, I might as well shoot it out and give Dark Azure Guard a little surprise.

Soi Fon blinked, then took a half-step back somewhat awkwardly: "What...what are you doing? I'm not your subordinate."

"Let's just consider it a complete success in helping someone."

Mima said, "After these matters are resolved, I will immediately take you to see your Lord Yoruichi."

As soon as the words were spoken, Soi Fon's face immediately showed a look of interest.

So she's really easy to deal with...

“Since… since you put it that way,” she said, turning her head and crossing her arms, “Fine, but I won’t wait for you for long.”

"No problem, I'll be right back."

..........................................

After exchanging a few words with the gatekeeper, Mima quickly stormed into the Technology Development Bureau. Following the route he took last time, he made a few turns and arrived at Mayuri Kurotsuchi's laboratory.

The situation was urgent, and he was too lazy to go through those boring formalities, so he simply banged on the door and shouted.

"Nessansi! I have urgent business to discuss with you!"

Not long after, the laboratory door was opened by a dead-eyed man with four small horns on his head and no eyebrows.

It was Ajin, with two big dark circles under her eyes.

"Is that Watanabe from the Eighth Division..." he said weakly. "What is it?"

Mi Zhen pointed to the sky: "I don't need to explain things. Most people are busy helping with evacuations right now, so I'll have to ask the Technology Development Bureau for some technical support."

"I see……"

Ah Jin sighed and scratched his head, saying, "But we haven't received any orders from above yet. If we act on our own, we might get into a lot of trouble..."

What he said was indeed a genuine concern.

At this time, Mayuri Kurotsuchi and Akin were not yet the later captains and third seats. Although their positions were not low, they were essentially "private crew" that Kisuke Urahara had found from the maggot's nest, and were not trusted by their superiors.

Especially now that Kisuke Urahara has "defected from the real world," although there is no relevant evidence, no one can guarantee that the oddballs at the Technology Development Bureau did not provide assistance to his "virtualization experiment."

Therefore, the Technology Development Bureau is in a rather awkward position.

As Ajin said, if they act without waiting for orders, those idiots in Room 46 will most likely take advantage of the situation and make things difficult for them.

However, Mi Zhen has a way to solve this problem for them.

"I am here on behalf of the head of the Peking Opera band."

He shrugged and made up a story: "He told me that if any unforeseen changes occurred, I should ask the people at the Technology Development Bureau for help."

The logic is simple: the Technology Development Bureau has lost its backer, so it is now acting with limited freedom.

Then Mi Zhen found them a powerful backer.

As for Chunshui's opinion... that kind of thing can be resolved by simply getting a ticket afterward.

"is it?"

A glint of light flashed in Ajin's dead fish eyes.

Mima nodded: "That's right, that's exactly it."

“Okay, okay.” Ajin immediately smiled, then stepped aside to make way for him. “Watanabe, the fifth seat, please come in. To be honest, we started our research on this matter as soon as it happened.”

As expected, this group of people has already started to move, just waiting for someone to provide an excuse.

Mima's arrival was probably like a pillow delivered to someone who was sleepy—they couldn't count on those idiots in Room 46. By the time they remembered that there was an organization called the Technology Development Bureau that could help them with their current situation, it would be too late!

"Okay, very energetic."

Mima gave a thumbs-up, then followed Akin into the laboratory in a flurry of activity.

They walked past a bunch of strange and unusual machines and arrived at a bustling...machine room.

Mayuri, the third senator of the 12th Division, Rin Tsubofu of the Reiwa Measurement Research Section of the Technology Development Bureau, Yushu, the head of the Communication Technology Research Section, and a whole bunch of strange soldiers exuding the aura of Frankenstein's monsters were all huddled inside, busily operating... a bunch of big-button computers?

This is the 19th century!

Damn, the Technology Development Bureau's style is definitely different from other places!

God knows what Kisuke Urahara was doing here!

Akin stepped forward and whispered a few words to Mayuri Kurotsuchi. Mayuri immediately beamed with joy, stood in front of a large black-and-white display screen, and began enthusiastically issuing all sorts of instructions that Mima couldn't understand.

Then, the third seat of the 12th Division, who always appeared with a black and white face (physical), personally walked up to Yama and revealed a strange smile.

...Although I know this guy treats everyone the same way, I still really want to hit him.

"Oh my, we meet again, Watanabe Yama."

Mayuri Kurotsuchi's eyes darted around in different directions like a chameleon before finally settling on Mima and asking, "What brings you here this time?"

"Let's skip the boring pleasantries." Mima sighed. "Captain Kyoraku can provide the Technology Development Bureau with a reason for its actions, so please produce reliable results as soon as possible."

Although Mayuri Kurotsuchi is a mad scientist, that doesn't mean he's clueless about human relationships—on the contrary, he's quite shrewd in that regard.

After Mima expressed his wishes, he immediately became a little more serious.

...It really was just a little bit.
