The only player in the world of Bleach.

I think I'll pass.

Honestly.

As he said those words, Yusuke Matsushita tensed up his body.

Because it is foreseeable that... Soi Fon will likely fly into a rage and roar as she slaps him twice more.

Come on, I'm ready to be ravaged by you!

But the expected storm did not arrive.

"...?"

That's a bit strange.

Matsushita Yusuke pursed his lips like a thief, cautiously opened his eyes a crack, and peered over with narrowed eyes.

He saw Soi Fon looking at him with a puzzled expression.

His eyes were filled with confusion and bewilderment.

"Are you serious?"

Willing to speak properly? That's quite rare.

"If you're willing to listen carefully, I can actually explain..."

"No, forget it."

Soi Fon loosened her grip on Matsushita Yusuke's right hand.

She took a half step back, her brows still furrowed, but her tone had softened considerably.

"You're not the kind of person who would seek your own death. Since you can make this judgment, you must have thought about it yourself."

Although she has a short temper, Soi Fon has a strong sense of judgment when she calms down.

She spoke slowly.

"You don't need to explain to me. I'm just worried that you might lose your life because of this... It's best if you have your own plans."

Seeing that Soi Fon was about to turn and leave, Matsushita Yusuke couldn't help but say something.

Aren't you curious about what I'm thinking?

Soi Fon stood still, pondered for a moment, and then said in a low voice.

"Everyone has their own secrets, and I won't actively probe into things that can't be discussed openly... You have your principles, and just knowing that is enough."

As expected of someone who can shoulder great responsibilities after Yoruichi skips work, it seems that becoming the captain wasn't just due to her fighting skills.

Their sense of confidentiality is truly remarkable!

However, this businesslike tone is somewhat disheartening.

"in addition……"

Just as Matsushita Yusuke's thoughts were racing, Soi Fon's voice came from not far away again.

She raised her hand and patted the pouch hanging from her waist, speaking lightly.

"I'm only helping you think of a safe way to solve the problem because of this. That's all, see you later."

Without turning her head, she raised her right hand, her slender fingers and distinct knuckles waving gently as if to say goodbye.

Soi Fon's figure quickly disappeared from sight.

Only Matsushita Yusuke stood still, savoring the flavor for a long time before finally discerning its taste.

I'll give a simple translation.

Was she trying to say, "You gave me something, I care about you, so I wanted to help you?"

It's supposed to be a pretty romantic thing, so why does it sound so lacking in sexual tension when this guy says it?

Some things are just funny to think about... Soi Fon is clearly one of those people.

Oh well, she still cares about me anyway.

This is enough.

Anyway, there are plenty of ways to deal with this tsundere later.

After figuring out the key points, Matsushita Yusuke raised his hand and patted his cheek, adjusting his mindset accordingly.

Let's focus on tonight's membership assessment... Even if we don't waste Soi Fon's reward, Matsushita Yusuke has to give it his all!

With his mind wandering, Yusuke Matsushita finished the last two classes, quickly packed his things, went back to his dormitory to put them in place, and then quietly climbed over the wall and left the school.

Seireitei was quite lively after nightfall.

Although it is set against the backdrop of a feudal society, there were actually many restaurants and eateries that were open all night.

Therefore, such curfews are meaningless; at most, they only increase patrols to prevent drunken guys from causing trouble elsewhere.

Therefore, Yusuke Matsushita didn't need to pretend along the way.

The only trouble will be when leaving Seireitei.

As described earlier, the four gates in the east, west, south, and north separate the Seireitei from the Rukongai, and these places are extremely important and cannot be entered or exited casually.

Previously, when I was a student, I was able to come and go freely because it was under the guise of an internship, and I was also led by a team leader, which allowed me to act a little more freely.

That's definitely not possible now.

So what should we do specifically?

Matsushita Yusuke didn't worry for long, because Aizen Sousuke had instructed him to wait at the east gate for a while...

Someone will take him away from here.

Yusuke Matsushita had no suspicions and arrived half an hour before the appointed time.

Now the area is unusually empty, with almost nothing else to be seen except for the guards at the gate.

So who are you waiting for here?

As Matsushita Yusuke was pondering this, he heard a familiar voice behind him.

"Matsushita-kun, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

He turned his head to look.

He saw Tosen walking towards him.

"Blind guy? What's he doing here?" The guy approached Matsushita Yusuke and said in a calm tone.

"I will take you away from Seireitei."

"...Uh? Ah...Oh, okay! Thank you."

Although he belatedly realized what was happening, Matsushita Yusuke was still somewhat dazed.

You're taking me out? How?

It should be noted that the number of patrol guards is one squad, which consists of nearly twenty people.

Moreover, each of them is a formally appointed Grim Reaper, which means that their strength has already surpassed the stage of basic cannon fodder... To take down these people without saying a word, one would need to be at least at the level of a vice-captain.

Furthermore, murder is definitely out of the question.

The guards exchange information periodically, and if no message is sent out, the Seireitei leadership will soon know that an "anomaly" has occurred here.

Killing someone would only increase the risk of exposure, so the only option left is to knock them unconscious... which makes things even more complicated.

Without expressing his own concerns, Matsushita Yusuke simply watched as Tosen Kaname calmly walked ahead.

"Matsushita-kun, don't worry... Lord Aizen asked me to take you there, so just come with me."

Before Matsushita Yusuke could even react, Tosen Kaname had already turned his head back.

He took the lead and quickly entered the warning area.

The torchlight illuminated Tosen Kaname's figure, and soon a cacophony of shouts and cries came from all directions.

Oh no... Doesn't this mean we've been exposed?

However, Tosen Kaname calmly drew his sword and murmured as if in a dream.

"Sing, you cleansing insects..."

Ding……

After a faint, almost imperceptible murmur.

Then came a series of melodious echoes...
