On how to understand love

"Asai, you actually patrolled the ninth watch this week?" The captain rubbed his temples, frowned and looked at Yumi, she put her hands behind her back, looked at her captain attentively and obediently, and then thought hard.

One shift is eight hours, two consecutive shifts for sixteen hours is already very hard work, so patrol formations generally avoid such situations, but Yumi was entrusted by seniors, and with her own original shift, she patrolled within a week. Nine more.

Although he doesn't need to use spiritual power, it won't do any harm to his body, but he has been staying up all day, and he feels a bit reluctant. He looked at the watch that didn't show that it had been modified. There are only three shifts on duty, and they are separated on Monday, Thursday and Sunday.

"Why did senior ask you to transfer shifts, and you didn't modify the duty list?" He looked at the list and frowned. According to the average distribution of patrols in the tenth division, if you need to transfer shifts with others for some special reasons , it is necessary to modify this on-duty list, so that the recorder can see it and evaluate the performance of that subordinate... Although the rules say that, generally no one will count the number of times each person is on duty like that , that would be too restrictive.

...Uh, that's the way it is said, but Yuya Asai's situation this week is too exaggerated. Although she doesn't say it, no one will know. If Yaqianru didn't know it by accident this time, he The captain wouldn't know about such a thing.

"...Senior said, it will be fine in a while..." Yumi was a little distressed, and frowned in confusion, as if she was thinking hard, not understanding why her captain had a serious look on her face.

"Then the shift was pushed to you this week? And she didn't come to take over?" Looking at the records, it should be different people who took over that day, there were about four people.He looked at Yuya standing in front of him, Yumi was a little confused by the captain's series of questions, for a long time... shook his head.

...This guy is too easy to deceive.He frowned, in this situation... Probably Asai Yuya was being bullied, and was picked up by some people in the team to tease him or something, he frowned, although the guy in front of him seemed to know nothing, but... he himself was Take this incident seriously.

...Malicious pranks like this appear in your own team.

Although Yuya Asai in front of him didn't notice at all, he didn't intend to let her know that he was being bullied. After thinking about it for a while, he said: "Listen, if you count more in a week Yu Wu, you can no longer help others to replace you."... She probably wouldn't think too much about it.

...No, would that guy think about it?

Yuya looked at the captain, then nodded slightly.

... Hitsugaya Toshiro sighed, but he finally felt relieved.

The air froze for a few seconds, and then a Matsumoto standing beside said, "Speaking of which, Yumi! Are you free tomorrow night?" Matsumoto looked at Yumi expectantly, and Yumi was stunned, tilting his head , and then quickly nodded to indicate that he was free.

"Let's go drink together!" Matsumoto patted the captain's desk with one hand, the captain was startled, and at the same time ran away: "Eh?!!!!!!"

"Yeah... because the captain lost a bet with me or something, the captain wants to invite everyone to drink! I have already asked everyone to drink, so come to Yuya!" Matsumoto looked excited, thinking that he could finally have Yuya Dragged into the ranks of drunkards.

"...Is it okay?" Yumi was a little puzzled, thinking about the captain's reaction just now...does he not want to go by himself?She looked at the captain, and then Matsumoto caught her small gesture and knocked on the captain's head with one hand: "Let's talk about the captain's reaction, you see Yuya is in a dilemma, right?"

The captain paused, seeing Yumi looking at him with a harmless face, feeling a little stressed, after a few seconds of silence, he finally pointed the finger at Matsumoto: "I don't have a problem with her going or not! It's just that you don't care about her." Teach others to drink! You will get into bad habits!" The captain wanted to continue, but Matsumoto covered his mouth, and then said to Yumi with a smile: "Above, the captain is just worried about your physical problems, but I think it is No problem, so Yuya, please go to the bar with us! It's very relaxing! It will be very happy too!"

"Wine... what is wine?" Yumi tilted her head.

……

There was silence for a while, and then Matsumoto smiled and said: "Hahahahaha! Let me teach you! Please come with us to the izakaya tomorrow night!"

Yumi couldn't react, so she nodded.

. . .

As a result, the reception really started.

Attendees were Captain Hitsugaya, Matsumoto, Kakaku, Koki, Hinamori, Kira, and Shuhei.

"I planned to let more people come, but unfortunately everyone is very busy... Sure enough, you should lose a few more times, Captain." Matsumoto looked at Captain Hitsugaya sitting next to him with a regretful face, and everyone immediately felt a little strange: "By the way, Matsumoto, why did you win Hitsugaya? Hitsugaya doesn't seem like someone who would lose casually."

"Of course I won't bet with him on things I don't have confidence in~ Because our team leader is awkward, so the bet with me will definitely lose!" Matsumoto almost said: "So I was tricked" , Everyone was still puzzled by Monk Zhang Er, tilting their heads, but soon began to get excited about ordering food.

Yumi was a little dazed, not used to talking and laughing with such a group of people, so she sat on the cushion and blinked her eyes.

"Hee hee, I'll be able to tell you how to taste life later."

"...?" She looked at Matsumoto curiously.

"Hee hee, please look forward to it~"——Captain, please also look forward to our [-]th team having an extra person who likes to drink and make trouble~ Matsumoto looked at the captain with a smile, the captain paused, and immediately looked at Yuya with a gloomy face : "Hey, Asai, there is still time to escape now."

"?" Youmi blinked, and looked at the captain with a puzzled look on his face, "...do you want...do I go?" Then she braced herself on the floor with one hand and tried to stand up, but was pulled down by Matsumoto, who gave the other hand to the chestnut Captain: "Captain, you boy! What are you doing? You seem to have troubled our family Yumi so much."

...I'm also worried about the buds of our team.

Hitsugaya Toshiro had no choice but to glance at Matsumoto... Uh, this guy is definitely a famous poisonous weed, and if it is deeply rooted in Jinglingting, she will assimilate all the young shoots one day.

When he came back to his senses, the captain immediately knocked back: "Matsumoto, don't be so big or small, you don't have to work recently, you just hit my head?!"... Noisy, Yumi watched the two of them interacting with each other Beaten, blinked his eyes.

……

Kazukaku and Kyoko looked at Yumi thoughtfully... After the guy entered the [-]th squad, he seemed to be breathing better...but he still looked dumbfounded.And... And I actually heard that guy's voice!I heard it!Although that guy spoke very quietly!But I still said it!Although the voice is soft and glutinous, I still said it! !

...No, that guy's voice isn't the point.

...To be honest, no one has seen Asai Yuya use the Zanpakuto as the main tool in battle. She has always used Kido, and even the [-]th seat of the [-]th team was won by Kido.They think that if she is serious, it should be more than just eight seats.

... No, no, it is also possible that the Zanpakuto is really useless, so it is not used.

. . .

"Yumi! Drink this first!" Matsumoto smiled and handed a cup of something as clear as water to Yumi, Yumi nodded and stared at the fuzzy shape in his cup with blinking eyes, and then looked at Matsumoto again, a little puzzled .

"I want to try to take a sip!" Matsumoto raised his glass, then gently supported it with the other hand, and drank it down in one gulp.Yuya raised his glass blankly, imitating Matsumoto to do the same movement, rolled up the sleeves that were in the way, and carefully took a sip.

…………

……

Youmi tilted his head, and Matsumoto didn't frown when he saw her, so he asked her how she felt: "How does it feel? Does your throat feel hot? Or does it feel warm? How do you feel?" Youmi blinked, He stared at the transparent liquid in the cup seriously for a few seconds, then raised his head and asked Matsumoto in a soft voice: "... what kind of water is this?"

……

There was silence for a few seconds.

"Pfft ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!" Everyone laughed happily, Yumi wondered if she had said something strange, and looked at Matsumoto and the captain with a face of 'lost to you' very innocently.Tilting his head, he continued to stare at the liquid in the cup.

Matsumoto was also silent for a few seconds, then suddenly slapped the table with a grinning palm, and raised the wine bottle righteously, with the words 'rice wine' written on it, so she smiled brightly and looked at it. Holding Yumi, said: "Rice water~ I also like to drink plum flavor, and there are also spicy and sweet ones~ I will definitely let You Miquan meet my good friends today! Remember, others will pour wine for you You have to take a sip right away as a courtesy, but when someone cheers you, you have to drink it down!"

……

Everyone watched Matsumoto shamelessly introducing wine to deceive Yuya, and also taught Yuya everything about wine in detail.

Everyone thought silently: "I will die, Yuya Asai, I will definitely die, because I was targeted by Matsumoto to be a drinking buddy or something"

After everything was said and everything arrived, Matsumoto poured a glass of stronger wine to Yuya and toasted her.Yumi looked at it, thought about it, and after remembering 'you have to drink it up after a toast', she immediately drank it up in a panic, still...without frowning.

After that, Matsumoto toasted and poured wine with her intentionally or unintentionally. Yumi drank it with a blank expression, her eyes still looked very energetic, her face was not red, she blinked, glanced at Matsumoto, and saw that the other party was Laugh, sometimes I laugh back.

. . .

...It turned out that Asai Yuya was a born alcoholic, and he never got drunk after a thousand cups.

...Then is there any way to put her?

...Well... the drunkard who feels natural is really domineering...

Then Toshirō Hitsugaya covered his forehead in pain and secretly slandered: It doesn't matter if you can drink, as long as you don't like drinking.

. . .

In the end, Yuya, who never drank a thousand cups, and the captain, who didn't drink much, remained conscious.

Xiu Bing and Ji Liang helped each other back, because they were both drunk, and Chu Sen also accompanied them back...in case the two gods of death did something strange when they were drunk.Yijiao was also responsible for supporting the bow who couldn't walk in a straight line back home, looked at the overturned wine bottles and the mess on the table, and suddenly couldn't bear to let the captain pay the bill alone...

Then Kira and Xiubing's wallets were also lying on one corner, and by the way, when the friend was a little unconscious, he took the wallet he put in the secret pocket.The captain gave the corner the thumbs up and went to check out.Then he went back to look at Matsumoto, kicked him a few times, and found that the guy had passed out to get drunk.

... Afterwards, the captain and Yumi had no choice but to help Matsumoto back.

………………

…………

Silent night.

Because the drunk Matsumoto was a little heavy, talking and moving nonsense, the captain and Yumi had no choice but to carefully support her back to Jinglingting, and then they silently supported Matsumoto back to the tenth team.

Yuya blinked, and looked at the shadows of the three on the ground stretched by the streetlights.

The captain looked at Yuya, who didn't know where to wander his thoughts, and said silently: "...you can drink." Those who can be put in Matsumoto are really amazing juniors.

Yumi didn't understand the meaning of 'can drink', she tilted her head, and looked at the captain seriously to ask for an explanation.

"Forget it." The captain sighed, "In short, don't drink those... smelly water too often, it's not good for your health." Hitsugaya Toshiro was still puzzled when he saw Yuya, thought for a while, and then pointed Matsumoto: "It will change like this."

... Pointing at Matsumoto, the man suddenly raised his head and shook his head, "Ah...the moon is so beautiful today...I...vomit!"

—and vomited all over the captain.

The captain immediately became murderous with a smile on his face, and put down Matsumoto with one hand.Yumi went to support Matsumoto, but Matsumoto was still vomiting in pain, Yumi thought for a while, and then patted Matsumoto's back lightly.

"Asai, let's leave her alone, we brought her back anyway, and let her climb back to the [-]th squad tomorrow." The smile on the captain's face was a little weird, Yumi was a little embarrassed, and suddenly didn't know which side to help, and finally watched Glancing at Matsumoto, he ran to the captain.

The captain was still shaking his dirty feathers, Yumi stared at the captain's hand, then looked at the captain's face, and carefully tugged at the captain's sleeve.

"What's wrong?" He looked back and saw Yumi staring at a part of his face with embarrassment. Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to the captain. After the captain took it, She pointed to the captain's cheek.

"...Thank you," he wiped, looked at what was wiped off, and then darkened his face: "I'll return it to you after I wash it."

Yumi nodded.

. . .

The two walked side by side on the quiet road, and Yumi was still used to looking at her own shadow on the road, as if it was fun.

He squinted at her, it was so dark that there were only a few street lamps to illuminate her at night, the quiet atmosphere made him want to say a word or two to break the silence: "Are you... happy today?"

Yumi thought for a while: "...happy?"

The soft voice made him hesitate. He glanced at her and didn't know what to say. What is the definition of happiness?Later, Yumi seemed to think of something in his mind, and suddenly looked at him seriously, with a hazy arc on his lips: "...Happy"

"Why?" He subconsciously asked, Yumi's skin is fairer than ordinary people, only places with lights can soften her lines, because her whole body is white, even her eyes are light-colored, so The color of any light can easily affect her.

... like a child, like a piece of paper.

Yumi looked a little dazed, thinking hard, after a long time, her unique soft voice sounded: "... There are many people... eating together."

Hitsugaya Toshiro looked at her, as if he saw her sitting alone in the dining hall, eating alone, no one was at the same table with her, even if someone was at the same table with her, those people would not talk to her, transparent people generally.

However, she doesn't seem to be sad that she has no one to eat with her, but only happy that someone eats with her.

After he thought about it, her way of dealing with things as if she was standing alone, and she was not used to talking, so people would only think she was strange, at least he thought she was strange at first.He frowned, looking at Yuya who was nearly a head shorter than himself...

I couldn't help being curious about this guy in my heart, but I believed that she was not a bad child.

He glanced at her and saw that she had almost reached the tenth team.Then he stopped, and suddenly covered her head with one hand, he felt her body stiffen, and he said with a helpless smile: "Your friends will gradually increase, you are actually a good guy."

You Mi paused, and suddenly felt that this sentence seemed familiar. Her lips trembled, as if she wanted to say something, and then she suddenly looked at the captain blankly, and finally said: "...captain...it seems like Ah Bai..."

"Ah Bai?" He grasped the word, feeling a little strange.

Yuya didn't answer, but smiled instead: "...Thank you, Captain..."

He frowned, and suddenly felt that this name was the key to something, but he saw her childlike smile on her lips, so he put aside all doubts, stood where he was, waved his hand and walked in a different direction from her back to his team building .

Ah Bai... He looked at the shadow on the ground thoughtfully.

... Abai.Yumi looked at the sea of ​​stars in the sky.
