half soul

Unokanaretsu raised his head from the medical case, glanced at Kurosaki Ichigo who couldn't hide his anxiety, and shook his head.She has been flipping through the ancient medical books in the Great Spirit Book Corridor.For this problem, but at a loss.

The black cavity opened by Urahara leads all the way to Jinglingting, so when Kurosaki Ichigo took Xia Li to the solid ground, he sent her directly to the Fourth Division Hospital.A week had passed since that time, and Xia Li had been in a deep coma, showing no sign of waking up.No matter what kind of medical skills or medicine stones, or even Inoue's ability, they couldn't make her open her eyes.

Now that Xia Li has become an ordinary soul, any fluctuation of Reiatsu will affect her, so Captain Unohana specially prepared a ward and set up a barrier to isolate the Reiatsu of other people.Even if she can't enter the ward without authorization, there are still many people who come to visit her. Rukia, Toshirō Hitsugaya, and even Byakuya are all regular visitors here.

I often ask questions like whether she will wake up or not. The captain of the fourth team just shakes his head gently and doesn't say anything.Everyone thought it was speechless, but they didn't understand that Uzhihualie didn't want to say that to others, maybe she just didn't want to wake up.

...because waking up means leaving.

As an ordinary soul, Kurosaki Xia Li did not die, so she should return to the present world.

This incident is considered to be over.Jing Lingting said less and experienced some changes.For most people, the addition or loss of a few captains will not have much impact on their lives.Jinglingting Court has always been very peaceful, no matter how life goes, it goes by.

Under the deliberate concealment of all insiders, the word "suitable" is still buried in history.The earth-shattering changes that happened far away in the Xuye Palace, but the ripples cast on the huge world of corpses and souls are so small that they can almost be ignored.

No one would know that there was a girl in this world who, in order to save the world they lived in, gave her spiritual pressure to reach the captain's level, and she still hasn't woken up to this day.

Ichigo reluctantly went back to the door of the ward, just in time to see a corner of his clothes flashing past.Gray and faded, he thought, and he knew who he was seeing.That guy has always cared about her, too.

Hitsugaya Toshirō's voice sounded behind him.

"Ichigo Kurosaki."

The orange-haired boy turned his head and saw the calm-looking captain of the [-]th squad standing in the corridor with his hands folded.The night wind blew a strand of snowy hair from his forehead.

"Yo Dong Shiro."

"...to call Captain Hitsugaya."

"Come to see Xia Li again. By the way, how is your health? You seem to be injured too?" It's not a lie to remember that he was covered in blood in Xuye Palace.

"It's nothing." The snow-haired boy walked outside the door of the ward, staring at Xia Li who was lying quietly inside.

He would be an idiot if he couldn't figure it out.Zhili had no intention of taking his Binglun Pills at all.A battle between himself and Hirinmaru is inevitable, but that is just the need to renew the contract.Xia Li should have traded his Reiatsu with Zhili in exchange for the opportunity to sign a contract with Hirinmaru.

Owe her again.

But it's not too bad this time, it's enough to spend a lifetime.

Because of Captain Unohana's request, no one can enter the ward at will.So the two of them could only stand outside, hoping that they could accompany her for a while.

Another round of waiting.Hitsugaya thought a little mockingly, he and Xia Li seemed to have been waiting for each other.Can't stop waiting.Either this one is in a coma, or that one is absent.However, it is clearly a state of getting together less and leaving more, why do you feel that you are always inseparable?How can you always wait?

Toshiro Hitsugaya's repeated inquiries gave the answer...that is, to believe.Just inseparable.

Ever since she exchanged her half-soul for Kurosaki Natsuri, they have been inseparable ever since.

Possibly, there is no need for a reason at all.Of course, if you must ask, you can tell a lot.But do you need it?Her figure has long been lingering in his mind.

will not separate.

Watching Ichigo leave, Hitsugaya walked lightly to Xia Li's hospital bed.The quiet moonlight streamed on her pale cheeks.He stretched out his hand to tuck the corner of the quilt for her, and a cool light flashed across his wrist.It is a black bracelet that can suppress his Reiatsu.The snow-haired boy had been granted permission by Unohanaretsu, and he had to put on the bracelet before he could enter the ward.

"Wake up, Xia Li." He stared at her face quietly, his voice was as soft as a whisper, "I will always wait for you. Even if you return to the empty seat to spend your life, I will wait for you here return."

The moonlight was clear, and no one responded to his words.

"Even if I can't see you and you can't see me when you are in this world, those times are just a moment in our lives. We have more time to be together."

He reached out and took Xia Li's left hand.

"When you come to Soul Soul Realm, I will definitely find you. One day, one month, one year, or even ten years, one hundred years, I will find you through the entire Liuhun Street."

He bowed his head, showing a faint smile like a breeze. "Xia Li, I didn't lie to you. Believe me, wake up early."

The ivory moonlight gently caressed the hands they held.Between his fingers, the pale and soft hand suddenly moved slightly.Whose heart is the quiet wind wandering.

"... Dongshiro."

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

"Why, are you troubled here?" The black-haired man raised his head and looked at the green-haired boy who ran up to him in a daze.

The teenager pouted.With the corners of his gray shirt swaying, he sat down on the floor and raised his cheeks.Those smoky eyes showed a bit of bewilderment, and Laimi was stunned for a while before sighing with concern.

"Sather, why is Her Royal Highness still awake?"

"Extracting the Reiatsu, the result is hard to tell." Sather returned his attention to the document in his hand, and signed his name seriously at the end of the document.

"Can't you help her?"

"If Mervet is still here..." At this point, Sasse didn't continue.When encountering such a matter involving the heart, the first thing that comes to mind must be her.Unfortunately……

For such an answer, Laimi raised the corners of his lips and spoke very firmly. "I believe she's still alive, just lost. Mervet, she's stronger than you and I thought."

"Oh? Then what are your plans, or...that's it?"

"How is that possible? Since I took over the Technology Development Bureau, I will definitely find a way to get her back." The sharpness in the green-haired boy's eyes made Sather finally meet the wise man again.

"Speaking of the Technology Development Bureau... what happened to that guy, Yuri Yuri? Didn't you take his place?" The black-haired man suddenly remembered this matter.

Laimi snorted coldly, and the tone of the answer was low but flamboyant. "Shut up. A lair of maggots. I disabled his soul-lock, soul sleep. Let's see how he continues to toss."

The dark-haired man raised an eyebrow.Also, when Kurosaki Ichigo was about to take Natsuri away, Nirvana Mayuri actually wanted to chase after him and do it. This incident obviously annoyed Remy, and he immediately hit hard.When it comes to strength, no matter how strong Nirvana Mayuri is, it cannot compare to Remy's.Even if that guy deserves it.

Lifting his head slightly, he remembered that Toshirō Hitsugaya had also lost his Reiatsu.At that time, I was still thinking about how this so-called young genius would deal with himself.

As a result, he neither erupted as violently as he did back then, nor resolved it skillfully like Remy, nor did he hide like Merwitt.He just went his own way, and with the power he possessed, he and Kurosaki Xiali believed in reaching the end.If it was said that he had found Remy and Movitt as companions, then Toshirō Hitsugaya had found Kurosaki Natsuri.

Should it be his luck or something.

What was lost at the beginning, now he has found it again.Reiatsu, Zanpakuto, and even the captain of the [-]th division.But there was only one last thing left, and probably the most important one—the unconscious man.

"She'll wake up, if he's around."

As a person who has seen the end from beginning to end, it is not difficult to draw such a conclusion.

This kind of thing, Laimi naturally also understands.He glanced at it, and the smoky crystal eyes were stained with a little complicated color.The boy didn't say anything else, he got up silently, straightened his clothes and jumped out of the window.His movements are dexterous and beautiful like swifts, as free and easy as ever.No matter what happened, this temperament has never changed.

In the distance, the wind blows through the treetops, making a low-pitched sound like an organ.This world is very quiet and peaceful, probably... as it should be.Sasse chuckled and picked up the next document.

"Anyway, I'm also the captain, why don't I always like to walk through the door..."

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

After Kurosaki Xiali woke up from the coma, Captain Unokana checked her immediately, and concluded that she had indeed become an ordinary soul.Apart from losing the spiritual pressure and no more injuries, then the next thing will be a matter of course.

As a person who has not died, he should not stay in the soul world.The portal will open again, and Ichigo and Natsuri will return to the present world.Standing in front of the crossing gate, the two said their last farewell to the person who came to see them off.

"I'm going to the empty seat in a few days. Brother Byakuya has approved me to continue to be in charge there." Lucia smiled and glanced at the two of them.

"That's great, you must come to my house. Dad will take the lead in welcoming you."

While Xia Li was talking, two hell butterflies flew over from nowhere.The wings of the phoenix-tailed butterfly fluttered, and the dark red spot light seemed to be laughing and blinking.Two butterflies fluttered up and down around her sleeves, as if they were making other appearances with her.Rukia said that it must be because she has a relationship with the god of death, even if there is no spiritual pressure now, she can attract the hell butterfly.

Xia Li shook her head, showing a relieved smile.How could she not recognize them.

Thank you for being able to come and see me off.

...Miss Rangiku, Ichimaru Gin.

His gaze finally settled on the silent boy.The gentleness between Hitsugaya Toshiro's eyebrows is like the scenery of a warm stream in March.

"Dongshiro, can I believe what you tell me?"

The previous coma... It wasn't too much to think about, it was just a momentary nightmare.

In that dream, your sneer was vivid in your eyes and ears, you said goodbye to me, you said that the world is so big but you taught me where to find you, that I would always be lost, no longer myself, that I was the opposite of you, Gradually drifting away from you, out of reach with you.After all, there are two worlds with you, and the wrong shoulders are beyond our reach.

I shuddered to think that it was a simple but irreversible loss.You and I both end.

It's like running in a maze without boundaries, no matter which direction you turn, it's the same road, the same fence, and the same ending.Infinite loop.

Really lose yourself.

Life and death can be transcended.But still can't escape those heart-throbbing rumors.

I am entrenched in the corner of the maze, no longer able to run.The blackness is rampant, dark and long, like a flood, passing over my insteps, my calves, knees, and waistline, oppressing my chest until I can't breathe.

If no one calls, I will eventually drown in the sea of ​​despair.

Until you come to my side and say sentences that sound like oaths.Only then did I realize that those were just nightmares.

Time to wake up.

"It's our agreement." The corner of the snow-haired boy's mouth slanted upwards.There is no longer any possibility of doubt.

"Okay, I believe you. Goodbye." The corners of his mouth raised.

Happiness is certain, because it is an agreement he said personally, and he believes it firmly.

So the next time is not difficult, just spend it.Will definitely be back.

wait me back.

"Goodbye." Hitsugaya smiled lightly.

Because I believe in myself, no matter how much time has passed, no matter which street corner she is in, I will definitely be able to find her.

Just wait.She will one day appear in my life.Cannot be changed.

Await your return.

Kurosaki Ichigo stood beside Xia Li, patted her on the shoulder, and signaled her that it was time.The girl raised her head and nodded to her brother, and the two of them walked into the world-transmitting gate without hesitation.

no way back.

The gate glowing with white light slowly closed, isolating this shore from the other.

The soul world and the present world, no matter what kind of agreement there was, have become two worlds that do not interfere with each other.

Thousands of feathered crows fly far away in the sky.Time is like a flood, rolling forward.

Either side of the story must continue.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

In a remote eaves corner of Jingling Court, Laimi half-lyed on the towering eaves corner, holding a jar of wine in his arms.The green-haired boy was squinting his eyes and looking at the faint light in the distance, which was the light of the world-transmitting gate.Suddenly there was the steady and familiar sound of footsteps coming from the ridge of the house. The boy turned his eyes and saw the feet approaching him.

"Why, why don't you give it away?" Sather's indifferent voice came from the top of his head, and he couldn't tell what mood he was in.

"No. I'd better not bother you on this occasion."

Sasse looked down at him, just in time to see the young man raise his head and take a sip of his drink.He frowned slightly.

"When did you start drinking? At this time, is it considered to be drinking to drown your sorrows?"

Remy shook his head and pointed his forehead. "Of course not, my mind is always clear." Shaking the wine jar in my arms, the sound of liquid colliding with the wall of the bottle is very pleasant, "I'm just passing the time, waiting for some news."

"Report to the chief." A figure suddenly appeared beside the two of them.Stealthy maneuvers.

There was a flash of light in his half-closed eyes, and Remy sat up. "explain."

"Ajin reports to you that the newly designed instrument has developed an experimental body."

The green-haired boy raised the corners of his lips, his eyes as bright as smoky crystals were shining brightly.In the next second, he jumped up from the eaves, his movements were crisp and neat.Sasse said to himself that he really didn't appear to be drunk, so he calmed down a bit.The wine jar was thrown under the eaves by the young man, but no sound of being smashed was heard.

"Great! Prepare test data now. I'll be there soon."

Seeing the secretly maneuvering team member disappear into the air, Remy turned around and smiled at Sather.On the corner of the eaves of the Jingling Court, which is not known how remote, the young boy's proud eyebrows are like the brilliance of the morning sun, breaking through the entire boundary between morning and evening.

"Look, I'm still busy. Don't worry, Sather, I'll get her back as soon as possible. Let's go, Ai!"

"Yes, Your Highness Laimi." The gray-haired boy holding the wine jar turned over from under the house, saluted Sather respectfully, and then chased Laimi away from the unknown building in a blink of an eye.

The black-haired man did not leave immediately, but smiled slightly and sat down on the eaves.The aroma of wine was drowning all over his body, and he did feel a little bit drunk.

In the distance, the white light of the world-penetrating gate gradually dimmed.

He thought, maybe... this is a proper ending.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

It was pitch black, and I couldn't see my fingers, and I couldn't even see the ghost light that I lit.It was as if standing in nothingness, nothing, pure darkness.She turned her head and stretched out her hand again.Didn't hit anything, just void.I didn't step on anything under my feet, I just stayed in one place out of thin air.That's all.

Very strange state...

In such a space, she did not panic.In the final analysis, it was her own choice, and the result could not be overstated.

Even if it is death...in fact, it is just death.

Already ready to die.It's just that I didn't expect that I could still be alive and appear in this inexplicable place.

What exactly is this place... According to common sense, it should be a boundary...

But really not...

"Why did you come in?" A voice suddenly sounded.In this place where there is no picture and there should be no sound, it looks very abrupt.

Hearing this voice, she froze for a moment, then stretched her eyebrows and smiled happily. "Why, you're not satisfied that it's me?"

"How could that be? You were the first person to come to me on my own initiative. Everyone before me was forced to come in." The voice also had a slightly more joking tone.

"A question for you. What do you want Lemmy to do?"

"I have taken a fancy to his ability."

"Oh, Jianfeng? That kind of speed that is faster than the wind, and the stronger power that matches it?" She laughed at herself, "That's right, since you have such great ambitions, you must not like it." It’s my family’s gentle southern fish mirror. But the matter is over, I’m the one who came in... and judging from your state, the alien world has been successfully sealed... What are your plans? Just close it like this Follow me until death?"

"Since you have the courage to break in to find me, you are naturally qualified to be my master." The voice paused, "But you are not qualified now. Your strength is too weak. I will wait for the day when you become stronger and give you more Appropriate spiritual power."

"This place is completely dark, how can I become stronger if I stay here?"

As soon as the words fell, a vast and endless land spread out under her feet.She remembers clearly that she likes this feeling without boundaries.I have been envious and jealous, and now I finally have it.In her eyes, what spread out was no longer the golden wheat awns, but the big sunflowers.Countless sunflowers are blooming on the earth, golden like the sea, and they look up defiantly towards their own God of Light.

The girl turned around in surprise, her long wine red hair was raised, and the black skirt trimmed with dark red iron wire flowers and arabesque patterns also swayed in an arc.

"Speaking of which, I even know your name, which saves me a lot of trouble, doesn't it?" She raised the corners of her lips and pronounced a familiar name, "Fragmentation."

"Indeed. I'll wait until you grow strong enough, and then I will be at your disposal. Merwitt."

"It's a word."
