Return of the Mask

At a dining table, several people sat there eating quietly, and the atmosphere was so quiet that it was eerie.

Urahara Kisuke still wore that green hat even when eating, and concentrated on eating the rice in his bowl.

Sitting next to him, the little red-haired boy looked at him, then at Yinshu sitting on the other side of him, and finally at Xiaoyu sitting opposite him, directly ignoring Tie Zhai next to Xiaoyu.

The black cat nestled in the corner and yawned.

Now the sun is fierce outside, and the cicadas are constantly singing. After all, it is still a summer afternoon.

Swallowing the last mouthful of rice, Yin Shu put down the bowl and said, "I'm done."

"Don't you want more food, Miss Gennai?" Xiao Yu asked in a low voice.

"No, thank you, Xiao Yu." Yin Shu laughed.

"I said, how long are you going to live?" Jinta frowned loudly.

"Ah, maybe the summer vacation is over." Yin Shu shrugged and smiled.Back in the present world that day, Otoki did not go home, but planned to live in the Urahara store for a while, because he not only wanted to discuss with Urahara Kisuke about Kurosaki Ichigo, but also wanted to find a suitable place. Enough time to ask Nightmare what he didn't finish saying that day.

"What?! It won't be until the end of the summer vacation?!" Jin Tai exclaimed dissatisfiedly, "Then you will sweep the open space in front of the store from now on!" Then he crossed his arms and closed his eyes, turning his head away, apparently for his work Can lighten up and snicker.

Yinshu raised his eyebrows and said, "Is this how you treat guests?"

"Guest? You?!" Jinta's expression was astonished. In his eyes, Otoki now seemed to be a thick-skinned person.

Yinshu pretended not to see it, she didn't care anyway. "Otherwise? Do I know Kisuke Urahara very well?"

Then the people at the table looked at Kisuke Urahara who had not spoken.

Urahara Kisuke was stunned for a moment, raised his head, then looked at Otoki, met her eyes, and smiled awkwardly, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh."

Otoki smiled and glanced at Jinta, who blushed.

After returning here that day, Urahara Kisuke returned the document to Otoki, and she chased him very violently. As long as he still remembers what happened that night, he naturally dare not play with Jinta and the others now. she.

"By the way, I'm going to find Ichigo today, he shouldn't be in school right now?"

"Of course their high school start time is the same as your junior high school start time. They stay at home at this time." Jinta said with a bad attitude.

Yinshu nodded.Then he exchanged glances with Kisuke Urahara.

She is going to ask Shimogo about the blurring today. Even if he doesn't know what it is, she still needs to remind him of the danger of blurring and make him be careful.

Speaking of blurring, if possible, she would really like to see Hirako and the others right now.But even Kisuke Urahara doesn't know where they are now.

After a while after lunch, Otoki went out.When I went out, I ran into Jinta. He said he was going to buy bread, and the two went out together.

When walking on the street, I can see many middle school students.

Although Otoki intends to stay at the Urahara store until the end of the summer vacation, in fact he will leave school for less than a week.

At this time, most students have already finished their summer homework, so they will naturally come out to have fun during the last period of time.

Speaking of homework... Yinshu's face darkened more than half...

Although she will be going to high school next semester, there are still a lot of homework this summer, and she has never touched those homework.

Standing under the tree, looking at the pale sun, Yinshu sighed and lowered his head.

"Source?!"

Hearing the familiar voice, Otoki raised his head and looked in surprise at Kurosaki Ichigo standing in front of her and the two boys beside him.It seems... one is called "Shui Se" and the other is called "Qi Wu", right?

"Ichigo? Why are you here?"

"Ah... Qiwu said he was going to watch a tennis match..."

"Eh?!! Ichigo!! Don't act like I'm the only one who wants to see it, okay?!" Qiwu shouted from the side.

"I wasn't very interested in tennis," Mizuiro said in embarrassment, then glanced at Ichigo, "Ichigo isn't interested either, is he?"

"Water color!!!"

The door of the bakery not far away was pushed open, and Jinta came out with a bag of bread in his arms, and was stunned when he saw Ichigo standing with Otoki.

"What, I was going to look for you." He walked over and said.

"Looking for me?" Kurosaki Ichigo was taken aback.

"Ah," Yinshu smiled, "Let's talk while walking."

"Then I'll go first!" Shinta closed his eyes and said.

Yin Shutou didn't return his smile and grabbed his collar without changing his smile. "I don't worry about children going home alone, let's go together."

"Hey!!!"

It looks like they're going to a street tennis court.

Qiwu only heard that there will be a doubles match from two junior high schools today, so he excitedly drags Ichigo and Mizuiro to watch it together.

"Qiwu, since when have you become interested in tennis?" Ichigo asked with a frown.

Qi Wu was stunned for a moment, then he grinned and said, "It was just the day before yesterday, Ichigo!"

"Well, the day before yesterday..."

"Ah, really, it's still coming out on such a hot day."

"...Aqua!!"

Qiwu and Shui Se slowly walked in front of them while chatting.

To be more precise, Yinshu deliberately slowed down his pace and distanced himself from them.

"Is there anything you want from me, Gennai?" Ichigo asked suspiciously.

"About... what happened when you and Byakuya Kuchiki fought." After hesitating for a while, Toneki decided to speak directly.

Jinta walked behind them, not listening to their conversation.

"Byakuza?" Ichigo hadn't reacted yet, "What's wrong with Byakuya?"

The black line of the sound tree is down.

She could imagine the expression on Byakuya's face when Ichigo said the word "Byakuya" so calmly in front of Kuchiki Byakuya.

"Well, it's not about him, it's about you."

"Me?" Ichigo frowned, and after a few seconds, he was slightly startled as if he had thought of something.

Yinshu saw his reaction in his eyes, so he said softly: "Do you know what that is?"

Ichigo didn't respond, and walked on the road in silence, his hands clenched into fists.

"Then do you know why this happened?"

After a few seconds, he let out a breath, frowned and looked at Yinshu: "How did you know that? You weren't there that day, were you?"

"Byakuya Kuchiki told me."

"Why would he tell you such a thing?"

Yinshu smiled helplessly. "Because the same thing happened to me and you."

Kurosaki Ichigo stopped abruptly.

Yin Shu also stopped and turned to look at him.

His face was full of shock.

Jinta walked around them and walked forward.

The vegetation on both sides of the road is lush.

Through the tangled blades of grass, you can see the tennis court below.

The sound of batting and cheering came faintly from inside.

"Did your Reiatsu change at that time? Did Hollow's mask appear on your face? The power suddenly increased a lot? Ichigo, that's Hollow."

Kurosaki Ichigo looked at her in surprise.

Yin Shu folded his arms around his chest and frowned slightly.

"I blur because of Aizen, but why does this happen to you? Do you know why?"

"I don't know." Kurosaki Ichigo said in a daze.

Yinshu's brows became tighter and tighter.Kurosaki Ichigo... is really a strange person.What is the secret behind him?It is impossible for a mere human soul to have such a thing happen for no reason.

Even if Aizen has experimented with many souls, whether they are whole, virtual, or death, they are all within the scope of the soul world.

Kurosaki Ichigo transformed into a god of death and entered Seireitei while he was alive. He hadn't even been to the world of souls before that, so why did he become a ghost?Could it be... just a coincidence?

Closing her eyes, she sighed and said, "Forget it, no matter why this kind of thing happened, please remember that blurring is dangerous, so you must be careful."

Ichigo was stunned, then lowered his head, loosened his fist slightly, and after a long time he said in a low voice: "...ah, I know."

Both fell silent.

Yinshu smiled, and was about to say "then let's go down now", only to hear a surprised voice behind him.

"……elder sister?"

Yin Shu was startled, then slowly turned his head.

Zhishu stood behind her with a look of joy and disbelief.

"Sister?! Is it really my sister?! Sister, are you really back?!" Zhishu shouted and ran over.

Yin Shu squatted down and caught her, then glanced at Yagyu Hiroshi who was standing in the distance.The other party didn't say anything, just pushed his glasses silently.

"Gennai, is this your sister?" Ichigo asked.

"Ah," Nodded helplessly, Yinshu said, "Tomoki Gennai."

"Sister, when did you come back, why didn't you go home?!" Zhishu said aggrievedly.

"Uh..." The corner of Yinshu's mouth twitched, unable to answer for a while.

Zhishu looked at Kurosaki Ichigo with a "swipe" look, and said viciously: "Is this brother my sister's boyfriend? Could it be that my sister is staying at her boyfriend's house if she doesn't go home?"

Yin Shu almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Kurosaki Ichigo was already blushing and angry!

"No Zhishu! Don't talk nonsense!" Yinshu said tremblingly.

"Then why?" Zhishu's eyes gradually turned red, "My sister said she would come back to eat the cake made by Zhishu!"

Yinshu was taken aback for a moment, and then said in a panic: "I, I will be back soon, but there are still some things to be done now..."

"What is it?" Zhishu asked doubtfully, "Is it blurred?"

"..."

Yinshu froze all over.

"you……"

"I heard what my sister and this brother said just now," Zhishu said with some concern, "What is blurring? Is it a very dangerous thing? Is my sister going to do something very dangerous?"

Yinshu didn't expect Zhishu to overhear their conversation...

"No..." Yinshu opened his mouth, let out a last breath, and said helplessly, "You are still young and don't understand what is virtualization, so don't ask. My sister will be back before school starts, so don't worry gone."

Zhishu pouted, and finally nodded depressedly.

Yagyu told her that the match here today was a doubles team between Marui Bunta and another school.

They came here to play a few days ago and met those doubles in this street tennis court.Although Li Haida lost to Aigaku in the Kanto Contest, they are still famous all over Japan after all, so they were challenged, and the agreed time is today.

As soon as he entered the stadium, Qiwu waved to them.

Yin Shu looked over and was embarrassed to find that they happened to be standing with Nioh Masaharu, so he walked over with Zhi Shu and the others.

"You are really slow, auntie." Jintao Bai Yinshu said with a glance.

Yinshu hit him on the head expressionlessly!He yelled and turned around angrily to stare at Yinshu.

"Sister, who is he?" Zhishu held Yinshu's hand and stood behind her, looking at Jinta warily and said.

"Ah, not a good guy, Zhishu stay away from him." Yinshu said seriously.

"Hey!! Say that again and throw your luggage out!"

Yinshu looked at him with a smile.

"..."

"Did you come back from the trip in Yuannai?" Seeing her, King Ren raised his eyebrows and said, "Pfft, I really made a group of strange friends."

So, the strange friends—Jinta, Ichigo, Mizuro, and Keigo all looked at him expressionlessly.

On the court, Li Haida played doubles with infinite ease, and his opponent gasped and stared at him, helpless.

"By the way," Ichigo whispered, standing beside Yinshu, "What's your relationship with Toshiro?"

Yinshu didn't expect him to say this suddenly, and was stunned.

"What's the relationship...it's the people who grew up together..."

"Eh?! Is that so?"

"What is your disappointed tone..."

"Ah..." Ichigo said with some embarrassment, "I always feel that there is something weird between you and Toshiro."

Yin Shu was startled and looked at him.

Turning his head and looking at the field, Yinshu was silent for a while, and said softly: "Ichigo, in fact, you still don't know my real identity, do you?"

Ichigo looked at her.

"I don't know what Aizen did to me, do I?"

"I have entered the Maou Academy of Spiritual Art for more than 100 years, do you know where it is?"

"Ah..." Ichigo thought for a while, "Is this the place where Shinigami studied? Rukia also went there to study.

"Ah," Yinshu glanced at him with a smile, "You really are full of Rukia."

"Hey!!!"

"Well, that's the place," Yinshu withdrew the smile on his lips, "After six years of study, I entered the thirteenth Goutei team, and I entered the second division team."

"You said that," Ichigo frowned, "Your captain is Yoruichi, right?"

"Ah, nine years after I became the vice-captain, there was an incident where the soul disappeared for no reason in Liuhun Street." Yin Shu really didn't want to recall that incident, so many places quickly ignored the past, "That's Aizen's Virtual experiment."

Kurosaki Ichigo opened his eyes wide in surprise.

"In order to investigate this incident, the captain of the ninth team at that time took the team to the forest to station. It happened that night. Everyone was deceived by Aizen, and they all became his experimental products, and were forced to blur .And I died before Kisuke Urahara figured out a way to save him."

"……died?"

"Ah, but somehow I was reborn again," Yinshu shrugged, "Do you think I'm particularly powerful?"

Kurosaki Ichigo was a little speechless. "There's no clue—"

At this moment, exclamations came from around.

"Be careful with the ball!!!"

"Where did you send the ball!!!"

"Be careful!!!!"

Tone Tree looked at the tennis player from the opposing school who was looking at them.

Ichigo caught the tennis ball firmly, feeling a little puzzled.

Nioh Masaharu had already protected Zhishu behind him, and he was obviously in a cold sweat.

The man stood on the court, looking at Nioh and Yagyu provocatively, panting, with a fierce look on his face.

Yin Shu narrowed his eyes, then chuckled.

"Oh, if you can't beat someone else, just throw the ball in the face of the audience, or even a little girl?"

There was a sudden silence all around.
