half soul

"Miss Kurosaki! Miss Kurosaki!" The anxious voice seemed to approach from far and near, and finally rang in his ears.

Xia Li slowly opened her eyes, only to realize that she was sitting on the ground against the wall.Next to it is Hufu, with a worried expression on his face.

"Great, you're fine...you look like you've passed out. Are you too tired? Let's take a good rest." Seeing her wake up, Hufu breathed a sigh of relief.It almost scared him to death just now.Xia Li was leaning against this place, with her eyes tightly closed, thinking about it with her toes, she should know how it was possible to fall asleep in such a place.

"Thank you." Xia Li touched her forehead and looked around.It was the corner where I just saw Hitsugaya.

Passed out?

She thought back to her dream just now.Is that really a dream?In the dream, there will be such a real feeling.The barren ice field, the cold breath, the outline of ice and snow, and the exhaled gas also turned into clouds of white mist, and the white snow would make a creaking sound when stepping on it.Until she circled an iceberg, the scene behind it made her heart beat wildly.

He stood there, even though his back was facing himself, he stood there very clearly.

Hitsugaya Toushiro.

I thought I would never see that person again.

In an instant, the mind was burned into a blank.All thoughts paled the moment he saw that he was still there.

There is a big ice dragon entrenched there.It is saying to Hitsugaya that it is useless for you to refuse.

I also seem to realize something.Pull up a smile.Yes you refuse to be useless.

Hitsugaya Toshiro turned around in astonishment.Step by step, he approached until his own shadow was reflected in his green eyes.

"What do you... know..." Desperate.She was sure she saw a flash of desperation in his eyes.His hands clenched tightly, trembling slightly.The huge ice dragon looked down at them without saying a word.

oh.You will also have this expression.

"All." She remembered her smile.And that sense of knowing it all, more like relief than despair.

"Didn't I tell you..." But his voice became weaker and farther away, and gradually became a haze that was difficult to understand clearly.Can't hear it, can't see it.She has moved away from that dream.

dream.It's because I miss it too much.

But what are you affirming?

It feels like you know everything.

I don't remember, maybe, I just don't know.

Xia Li stood up slowly, and took a last look at the place where Hitsugaya disappeared.In a trance, it seemed that the guy was still standing there, shaking his head to himself.Then he raised the corners of his lips, and retreated with a smile in the enchanting night.

What are you rejecting, Toshiro.

Xia Li vaguely sensed Hitsugaya's intention, which was to keep herself from doing a certain thing.But it's a pity that Xia Li has never been someone who will obediently leave when you say run away.

"Hufu, go back."

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

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

a week later.Urahara handed over the deciphered text.

"I want to go back to the empty seat. The work here will be handed over to Hufu first. Ms. Kurosaki, if you plan to return to this world, he can contact me at any time." Urahara waved his hand, leaving them a back view.

Urahara raised his head, and the zenith was at the height of the new moon.The store manager covered his face with a fan and sighed slightly.It's not yet full moon, so the little girl can't mess around.But things are really not simple now.Even if he was really going to be hacked seventeen or eight times by Zhanyue, there was no other way.

Her family must be notified.What she was going to do was getting more and more dangerous.This is different from coming to the world of souls to play, and it can no longer be covered up by the idea of ​​"respecting her choice".

According to the book... At most, it can only be used once or twice, the ability of those who are suitable.And the most dangerous is the last time.If she is only treated like the previous few times, she will lose the power of a suitable person and return to an ordinary person.This is good, you can return to the track of normal people.

but.Nothing in this world is certain.If she wanted to call someone back... Although I don't know the relationship between Ms. Kurosaki and the half-souls, this possibility cannot be ruled out.After all, I am an outsider, so it is not convenient to meddle in her affairs.Instead of asking her yourself, let her family do it.

Urahara lowered his head to support his hat, and the dark green bathrobe fluttered in the night wind.The sound of clogs gradually disappeared into the darkness.

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

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

"That's the thing, Mr. Kurosaki." Urahara has returned to the present world, and explained everything to Kurosaki Isshin, Ichigo and Rukia.Since Youzi is not deeply involved in the world, it is better to screen out many things in the world of corpses and souls before telling her.

Ichigo frowned.Yixin touched his chin and fell silent.

"If she intends to revive a half-soul, she won't die. However, with her ability, she probably won't come back. This is the worst case scenario." Urahara hid his expression behind the fan, But his tone was rare serious and earnest.

"If you don't tell her, nothing will happen, right?" Rukia Amethyst's eyes locked on the store manager tightly.

"According to my judgment, the abnormal coma of Ms. Kurosaki that Hufu discovered before should be the proof that she has entered a certain inner world." Urahara continued, "She will know everything, even if I don't tell it. What do you think is the point of delaying this form of time? Will it change Ms. Kurosaki's mind?"

Ichigo ran his hand through his hair.He is very clear.Xia Li has maturity and determination that are not commensurate with her age.Based on her understanding of the corpse and soul world and these things, once she said that she would risk her life, she must have such awareness.

"Indeed, that guy Xia Li won't be obedient."

"The purpose of my coming is to tell you these things. Then, you should be mentally prepared. For the sake of Miss Kurosaki's safety, you'd better ask her about her plans." Urahara Kisuke slapped his fan a few times, and was about to Disappeared at the gate of Kurosaki Hospital.

"...Urahara, prepare to pass through the gate for me." Ichigo stood up.

"Huh?" The store manager turned around.

"I'll go too." Rukia's attitude was also firm.

Kurosaki looked at the two of them intently. "Then, I'll leave it to you two."

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

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

The Corridor of the Great Spirit Book in the Soul Realm, a place that is usually deserted, has a few busy figures today.

"Oh, Miss Yeyi, the fifth book on the list has been found!" Qingyin's voice came from among the tall bookshelves.

"Damn it, you found it before me! Ms. Yeyi, you also found that "Legend of the Feast of the Ghost Dao"!" Xiantaro also yelled.

"Oh, you two have worked hard! If I didn't have you two to help me, I really don't know when I will find it." Ye Yi stood in front of the terminal computer, looking at a series of lists on the computer.The authors of these books all have the same name.That is, the author of the two books, one black and one white, that revealed the secrets of the half-soul and the fit one.

"Oh, it is my honor to serve you."

"You even snatched my lines, be careful to plant you in the ground!"

Yeyi flipped through those books, narrowing her golden eyes slightly.Kisuke confessed that what he was looking for was the life story of the author... It cannot be denied that from the books written by this person, it can be seen that he wrote many legendary things, but he didn't seem to leave a single word for himself.Anyone who can write the secrets of a half-soul and a suitable person must also be a suitable person.But whether that person is the author himself or someone he knows is hard to predict.

A slightly dull voice sounded.It was the door that was pushed open.

Yoruichi was in front of the terminal computer on a high place, looked down, and it was Kisuke Urahara and Rukia Kuchiki who came in.

"Miss Kuchiki, I hope you can assist Ms. Yoruichi to investigate the matter of the author. I think I should be able to find more information about the suitable person from that person. Ms. Yoruichi will probably be busy even if you add Sendaro and Qingyin But come." Urahara spread his hands.

"Hey, where's Ichigo? Did you go to find Xia Li?" Ye Yi asked the two people below.

"Ah, I rushed over here as soon as I got here." Rukia jumped to Yeyi's side, her eyes scanned the long list on the computer, "Then Miss Yeyi, I'll help you too. Bar."

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

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

When Xia Li glanced at those pages, she seemed to have walked through a long, long dream.Now she finally woke up.Even the sentence "You refuse to be useless" that she thought was in a dream was endowed with a very real meaning.

It turns out...that's how it is.Xia Li lowered her head, a slight smile crossed the corner of her mouth.

Hitsugaya standing in the wind and shaking his head to herself flashed in her mind, that indescribable moment was stained on the corners of his mouth and between his brows, so full of despair that could not be melted away.

That's right.You already know what I will do.

Are you trying to stop me?

That's too naive, Dongshiro.

You probably never thought about what you are to me.

So, so say.

Can I tell you this.

You were the snowman that made me and You Zi never make another snowman that winter.

But my reason is different from that of the wanderer.

It's not that I'm afraid that another one will melt away, but I always like the one that has disappeared.

You are irreplaceable.

"Xia Li." Ichigo's voice came from behind, and his voice was panting slightly as he ran all the way.

In an instant, the girl looking at the night seemed to understand something, and turned around a little bit.

She spoke calmly.

"Brother, I won't leave."

Is it a guarantee?Is it a promise?This sentence does not mean that she will not call back a certain half-soul, on the contrary, she is determined to do so.The moment Xia Li spoke, Ichigo knew that he couldn't stop her.From childhood to adulthood, when is it not like this.This stubborn and independent child.He watched Xia Li's hair around her ears being blown up by the wind, and the smile on her lips scattered. This scene became a little hazy in his eyes, and it was hard to be real.

She has grown up.It was all the thoughts in Ichigo's head.

"You... know the price..."

She is no longer an ignorant little girl, no longer an impulsive child who does things ignorant of the consequences, and no longer a sister who comes to her brother whenever she has something to do.

"I will definitely be back."

I made my own choice and walked my own path, and I won't stop it.Just like my former self, I tried my best to become stronger, to overthrow the entire soul world, and to save Rukia, and no one can stop it.

"Then, who do you want to call back?"

"Hisugaya Toushiro."

Ichigo was taken aback.Dongshiro that guy?

"Brother Yi," just when Ichigo was about to ask, Xia Li suddenly asked him, "If sister Rukia becomes a half-soul, and you are the only one in the world who can call her back, at the same price, you will Will not refuse."

This is not a question at all.

Therefore, there is no need to answer at all.

Ichigo fell silent, for a long time, he turned and left, the last voice echoed in the air.

"Xia Li... You should think about how to tell You Zi... what Dad and I said is fine."

You just trust him, is he strong enough to have Hirinmaru again.

In that case, I believe you.

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

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

There are only a few days left until the night of the full moon this time.These days, Xia Li has been returning to live in this world.Because if it wasn't for the night of the full moon, she wouldn't be able to do much if she stayed in Soul Soul Realm.Besides, Xia Li wants to spend more time with the wanderer.It's hard to say, until the day Xia Li comes back, I'm afraid she will go to Liuhun Street to find a wanderer.

Regarding the half-soul, Xia Li has already written a message, asking Ichimaru Gin and Rangiku to wait for her under the largest cherry tree in Karakuza Park on the night of the full moon.Then, as long as they can meet each other next time, everything will be fine.

The method has already been written on those three pages, and it is not much different from the previous one.It's just that the missing person has become a half-soul this time, so the name has to be written by the suitable person.As a half-soul, Miss Luanju doesn't know the reason for this method, probably because this situation is too rare.

At this time, in the Jingling Court, in the corridor of the Great Spirit Book, Urahara, Yeichi and Rukia were all in shock and silence.

They have been looking for information about the author of that book.Through searching various names and nouns with a large amount of information, they gradually learned something about the author.Just as Urahara thought, that person is also a suitable person, so he can write about half-souls accurately, including that he once made two half-souls meet.However, things are not that simple.As a well-known academic, the author entrusted his best friend to help prepare a three-page blank manuscript in order to allow himself to write more comprehensive content.He told his close friend that the manuscript can be bound into a book in three days, even if there are three blank pages.Then, because he knew that the half-soul would carry the items he took during his lifetime, he committed suicide with a pen and ink in his hand, and became a half-soul through the thoughts of his best friend.

Everyone can imagine what happened next.It was the author who became a half-soul who wrote the final words on the page.Because he became a half-soul, ordinary people cannot see what he wrote.

Urahara stood up.

"Miss Yeichi, Miss Kuchiki, you have worked hard. This matter...can be over."

If this is the case, then the meeting between Ichimaru Gin and Matsumoto Rangiku should be no problem.But about calling back the half-soul, that's just the author's imagination.Can it be done.Can you believe it?

Urahara walked out first, his expression was hard to discern under the dark green brim.

The risk is too great.

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

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

The night of the full moon came as promised.Xia Li hugged her knees and sat curled up under the cherry tree.The moonlight is awe-inspiring, but her expression is always hidden in the shadow of the cherry tree, blurred.

Suddenly, Matsumoto Rangiku and Ichimaru Gin had already arrived.It was the first time Xia Lifei saw this situation, the two of them appeared at the same time.But my heart still felt like I was stabbed by a needle.She could feel the entanglement between them, just at the corners of their eyes and brows.

They stood neither far nor close, three steps away, and neither of them knew that the other was by their side.From Xia Li's point of view, it looks like the distance that should exist between lovers.The distance that they are clearly in love with each other but are too apprehensive to approach.The two parties couldn't see each other at all, so Xia Li thought it was just her own illusion.

Actually.And nothing more than that.Ichimaru Gin and Matsumoto Rangiku.One party knows his own destiny and wants to follow Lan Ran to realize his dream of dominating the world, so the only way to protect the person he wants to protect is to stay away.It's a pity that that person's dream was shattered, and whoever and whoever would follow suit.The other party knew from the very beginning that that person could not be chased. He worked hard to become the god of death and became the vice captain, but he still couldn't escape the fate of confrontation. The point of the knife is pointing that way.

One wants to live a long life by staying away from me, so what are you doing here.

I love you.

One thought that since you betrayed the world, at least let me kill you with my own hands.

Because I love you.

But none of them said a single word.

How can the superficial word "illusion" sum up these love and hate buried in the waves of the bottom of my heart.

Xia Li sighed softly in her heart.

Wait, wait a little longer, let you see.

She had told Puyuan and Hufu before, don't come here halfway.If they are seen by other people, they will be wiped out.Too many people have chosen this approach before.Those people tried their best to sacrifice themselves, and they also had to tell others something, whether it was encouragement or gratitude, they had to say it even if they lost their lives.But now it is different, Luan Ju and Yin, just the two of them are enough, enough.You don't need to and must not be disturbed by others.

Moon to midday.Xia Li cut her fingertips with a dagger, and drew a cross on the left and right sides of the cherry tree.She pointed to Luan Ju, signaling her to stand on the right, and pointed to Yin, asking him to stand on the left.Then, she wrote their names on white silk with her own blood and put them under the cherry tree.Xia Li could see Luan Ju's gray-blue eyes widening, staring at the place opposite where the cross was drawn, trying to see that person.And Ichimaru Gin just smiled and stood there quietly.

A gust of wind blew over, both Yin and Luanju stretched out their hands to brush their hair.Xia Li watched their movements in exactly the same way, and suddenly felt something pierce her heart, with the taste of sky blue tears.

This time, may I ask you not to separate again.Can you.

She walked around the cherry tree, and placed a murderous stone in the four corners of the southeast, northwest, respectively.The moment the last murderous stone fell to the ground, the cherry tree blossomed crazily, and large swathes of pink fell down like a torrential rain, like a storm.The big group of colors blocked the line of sight so that Xia Li could not see the situation under the tree clearly.But the partition formed by the murderous stone will not let others approach.

"Hey, what's the matter? Did it work? Are you there?" She opened her mouth and finally called out.

Through the narrow gap between the wildly fluttering cherry blossoms, she saw their figures.Hidden indistinctly behind those petals, Xia Li could not see the whole person, but Xia Li could be sure that their hands were tightly held together, fingers intertwined.

That is, the most beloved grip, we will never be separated.

"Little sister Xia Li, thank you."

"Thank you."

She heard their voices echoing in her ears through the vast expanse of flying colors.

Can't wait for her to respond, a more violent wind came.The petals of the cherry tree seemed to have broken through the cover of the murderous stone, and fluttered in all directions.Xia Li instinctively stretched out her hands to cover her eyes and curled up.

They are leaving.

about to go.

It was all her thoughts.

"You guys, take care!" Xia Li's vision finally blurred.This time, it was not sadness, but emotion.

They have all experienced the deep-seated longing of the half-soul...

This time, please really really don't separate again.

If you both love each other, don't let go...

This time, there really won't be anything that separates you.

Silently but violently, the cherry blossom petals suddenly spread out, and with the gust of wind, it blew away every corner of the empty seat of the model.The white silk also disappeared in the wind.The cherry trees regained their summer greenness.Everything just now seemed to be just a dream.Xia Li slowly lowered her hand from her face.The moonlight shone, and a dark red light flashed in midair.No, two ways.

Yes……

Two big black butterflies.

hell butterfly.

It is called hell because it is a soul returning from hell.Love, hate, be attached to, disappear in this world and reincarnate in the next life.If they were half-souls, they would not be able to become Hell Butterflies, but with the help of those who are suitable, they can be reborn.

The two hell butterflies approached lightly, danced around Xia Li for a while, and flew into the night sky one after the other.

"You guys want it, okay..." Xia Li looked up, watching them gradually disappear into the deep sapphire blue sky.

The full moon is in the sky.Tonight is the day when no one is separated from another.

Urahara, who was in the other corner of the empty seat, suddenly stretched out his hand and caught a pink petal.He looked at the unseasonable pink on his fingertips, and gently took off his hat and put it on his chest.

"Wish you guys good luck."
