[Reaper] Evening Primrose

After returning to the present world.

Everyone seems to be living their normal lives. Of course, the sudden appearance of Goku makes Ichigo and others have to use the toilet as an excuse to run out of the school.

And for Moon See...

"See you every month! See you every month!"

Hearing the sound, Yue Jian turned around and saw Inoue greeting her.

"By the way? Let's go home together!" Inoue was still looking lively, and then remembered something, "Would you like to come to my house to play? I made mustard sandwiches today..."

"..." What the hell is a wasabi sandwich, Tsukimi pushed his glasses and smiled, "No, I live at Mr. Urahara's place."

"Oh? Is that so?" Inoue said distressedly, "I've made a lot... I can't finish it..."

"...No one will eat it at all." Long Gui complained after packing his schoolbag and waiting on the well.

Seeing the two chatting more and more happily, Yue Jian shook his head helplessly, reminded him of his schoolbag, said goodbye and started walking towards Urahara's store.

It was quiet along the way, unnaturally quiet.

It's already past eight o'clock in the evening, and now it's just autumn, and the sky is almost completely dark.

The weather has also turned cooler.

Tsukimi thought, should I buy a scarf for Ichigo?It's been cooling down these days.

“Delicious soul...”

The misty voice caused Yue Jian to burst out Reiatsu reflexively, and quickly took a few steps back, only to see that the place where she was standing had sunk into a big pit, and the huge white monster slowly raised its head.

...I actually encountered Hollow too.

"Can you see me?" Xu seemed excited.

"What do you think?" Yuejian took a deep breath, tried to calm down, looked at it with a smile, and was ready to leave Yikui to fight at any time.

Glancing at the street, although it was almost dark, there were still some scattered people.

She doesn't want to be regarded as a psycho, she has to go to a place where no one is there.

Xu didn't continue to talk to her, and rushed over directly, and Yue Jian's pupils shrank, and he started to run.

"Where no one is..."

"no one......"

Yue Jian ran and searched for the place, suddenly staggered and her breathing became short of breath.

"......what happened?"

The footsteps slowed down unconsciously, and looking back at Na Xu, there was nothing unusual.

The problem is her own.

"in the end......"

Xu rushed over, Yuejian's pupils shrank, but because of the sudden weakness just now, he couldn't even get away from Yikui, let alone resist.

"Oh~ Tsukimi-san, you seem to need help."

The profiteer's tone made her subconsciously squint her eyes completely open, and she looked at the adult man in front of her who was wearing a cuckold and had already been dealt with.

"Urahara... store manager..." Tsukimi murmured, but still felt tightness in her chest.

"This sudden discomfort, after all..."

"Tsukimi-san." Urahara sighed, squatted down Nobuko, and hugged Tsukimi horizontally, "In this case, you shouldn't run around, don't you feel it?"

Yue Jian looked up at him suspiciously, but her heart skipped a beat because of his next sentence.

"Kurosaki-san's virtualization has already begun."

There was no rippling tone, no smiling expression, when Urahara said this, his face was rarely serious.

"..." Yue Jian tried to make her expression more natural, smiling calmly, "I know."

"I know."

"I... have known it for a long time."

"But I only know now that I am so afraid of leaving."

Shirasaki had already, almost surpassed her.

"She" becomes part of "him".

Originally, she thought that she was able to face it calmly, but when it really happened, she felt so bored in her heart.

"..." Seeing Tsukimi's determined expression, Urahara fell silent, stopped talking, and went back to Urahara's store with Tsukimi in his arms.

Yue Jian didn't continue talking, but his expression was a little gloomy.

......

"What is this?" Tsukimi asked looking at the machine that looked like a vacuum cleaner in front of him.

Originally, he thought that Urahara would let her go, but he didn't expect that he took her to his room, said that he had something to tell her, and showed her this machine.

She wasn't so simple as to think that this was an ordinary vacuum cleaner.

"Tsukimi-san, you should know that you are about to "disappear". Urahara touched the machine, "...I made this machine when you went to the world of souls. "

"...So?" Yue Jian asked silently for a while.

"..." There was a flash of light in Urahara's eyes, he seemed to be hesitating, and then he said something that made Tsukimi's pupils shrink to the size of a pinhole, "It can completely separate you from "Zengyue" . "

It can completely separate "Tsukimi" and "Zenyue".

"What's the price?" Yue Jian was surprisingly calm, even she herself was surprised by it.

What about the price?

Since they can be separated, there will definitely be an impact.

What is it?

Cutting Ichigo's power, or something else?

"It's not what you think." Urahara rubbed Tsukimi's short dark brown hair, making it a little messy, "There is a price, but it won't affect Kurosaki-san."

"..." Yuejian didn't speak, waiting for his next words.

"Totally separate, then you will be completely able to go to "Zhanyue". Urahara continued, "You will no longer be exposed to everything about Void and Shinigami, and become a complete "Zheng". "

Become a complete "whole".

Since then, I can no longer touch the world of Kurosaki Ichigo.

Tsukimi stood up abruptly and took a deep breath.

"I reject."

The three words were extremely resolute and powerful.

"I am afraid of disappearing, because I am afraid that I will never be able to touch this world again." Yue Jian's voice was very soft, as if he was thinking about many things.

She was indeed frightened.

Afraid to leave, afraid to die...

Afraid of not being able to touch Ichigo again.

"But I'm his knife, and I won't run away just because it's going to disappear. "Yue Jian's eyes are firm" I am, his knife. "

"It's Kurosaki Ichigo's sword."

"So—" She let out the suffocation that was stuck in her chest.

"I choose to stay." Her eyes were so bright that some people dare not look directly at them.

"Staying is my own choice."

"This is the path I chose."

"So I will keep going, no matter how hard it is, even if I know the final outcome."

"I am willing too."

Urahara pressed his hat, and the corner of his mouth curled up stiffly.

"Oh~ don't be so serious, I'm joking." Urahara slapped his fan, showing the same profiteer's smile as usual, "That kind of machine can't be made in such a short time."

"..." Yuejian was noncommittal, lowered her eyelids, and tightened her hand holding the corner of her clothes.

"I'm back in my room."

"Cross-"

Urahara's door went from opening to closing.

After the girl left, Urahara stared at the machine in a daze for a long time, then burst out laughing, opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

"That's right, Tsukimi-san."

"...How can there be such a silly joke."

The author has something to say: In fact, such a choice is quite harsh for Yuejian.

It might be a little strange...but after all, Yuejian also has the mentality of being Zhanyue. Zhanyue's instinct and Yuejian's emotions are intertwined, so she made this choice without hesitation.
