Chapter 4 The Covenant

Because of Rukia's memory-changing machine, Inoue and the others' memories of last night were erased. Inoue's situation is not good. He has been on leave for several days. Jaw twitched.

"Student Kurosaki, come up and write this question." The sharp-eyed teacher noticed that she was distracted, and pointed to the densely packed math problems on the blackboard to make things difficult for her.

Rukia poked her arm: "Ichigo, I'm calling you."

Ichigo came to his senses, walked up to the podium to read the questions, picked up the chalk and wrote the answers neatly.

"Listen carefully next time."

"know."

Ichigo's thoughts kept wandering until the end of this class.

Ichigo, who came back from the toilet, found that her desk was clean and even her schoolbag was gone. She asked Keigo Asano next to her, "What's going on? Who did it?"

Asano Keigo was even weirder than her. He pointed to the back door: "Didn't you say that Kuchiki and Kuchiki took time off to see Orihime? She packed things for you."

"Damn it, I also want to ask for leave to see Orihime, but the teacher doesn't agree with me," Keigo Asano said pitifully, "Ichigo, you must say hello to Orihime for me, just say that Asano-san was worried about her for several days gone."

Ichigo was disgusted by his nasty words and didn't know what to say, so she agreed first. She had an intuition that Rukia must be waiting for her at the training ground. After passing through the teaching buildings, Rukia really carried There is her schoolbag.

"You guy, don't make your own claims and ask for leave casually. The teacher will definitely call Dad tonight. It's really troublesome."

Rukia was not angry when she heard the words, she snickered: "But I see you are very happy."

Ichigo lifted the schoolbag with one hand, and his fierce tone softened a lot: "Let's go."

"Hey," Rukia walked quickly to her side, "Admit it, Ichigo, you actually want to go too, you were distracted by watching Inoue's seat in class."

"Then let's go quickly."

Empty General Hospital.

The nurse refused to take her to Inoue's ward on the grounds that Ichigo was not a member of Inoue's family. Ichigo rubbed her hair helplessly. She was about to feel Inoue's spiritual pressure and came to find him when a man with short silver hair parted in the middle suddenly appeared in front of her. He looked indifferent and motioned the nurse to give him the information.

"Dean, this is the list of patients registered today." The nurse bowed her head respectfully.

"Well, you are busy with your work."

The man hurriedly flipped through the documents in his hand, and Ichigo wished he could stretch his neck to see the words on the paper. With this man's height, she couldn't count on Rukia at all.

"Dean, can I ask my classmate's ward, she can testify that we are really students." Ichigo pulled Rukia, fortunately they are still wearing school uniforms, so they are more reliable.

"You are... Ichigo?" The man hesitated for a moment, and finally called out her name.

Ichigo was slightly shorter than him, and when he looked up, he could clearly see the man's face, a complete stranger.

Rukia asked, "You know him?"

Ichigo shook his head decisively.

The man looked at her face with a nostalgic look, as if he was looking at another person through her: "I hugged you when you were young."

It was the first time in many years that a man mentioned his best friend from his youth.

"I am a friend of your mother Masaki, Ishida Ryuzuru."

"Impossible!" Ichigo subconsciously retorted, she let go of her schoolbag nervously, and ran towards the end of the corridor of the hospital.

Ishida Longxian looked at the back of her leaving, and his eyes fell on Rukia again, with scrutiny: "You will bring her trouble."

Not to be outdone, Rukia said, "I should be the one who said that." She clearly felt that the powerful spiritual pressure on this person was oppressing her.

Ishida Longxian pushed his slipped glasses with his ring finger: "If you haven't participated in her past, don't affect her future."

Rukia picked up Ichigo's dropped schoolbag and turned around to chase after Ichigo. Ishida Ryuzuru's words still echoed in her mind. She was never curious about other people's past, but Ichigo was not someone else. She was willing to wait until the other party wanted to tell her. Know her past again.Only by connecting the past and the future can her life be considered complete and truly enter her heart.

Ichigo was lying on the roof of the hospital, her hair was blown wildly by the wind blowing from the top floor, as if she would be taken away by the wind if she didn't catch her.

Rukia lay beside her quietly blowing the cold wind with her, turned her head to see a hand resting on her head, staring straight at the sky with her expressionless face.

After a long time, Ichigo rubbed his eyes, calmed down and told her, "I haven't figured out how to tell you yet."

"It's ok."

After the two opened the iron gate of the rooftop, Ishida Ryuseki obviously waited for a long time, and he invited Ichigo to his house for a sit down.

"Can you take me to see a classmate first?"

Ishida Longxian readily agreed.

Inoue fell asleep, and Ichigo sat in front of her hospital bed for a while, and finally visited Ishida Tatsuzuru's home.

Ishida Ryūshū's home was as cold and lonely as his own. He knelt on the tatami and poured tea for Ichigo and Rukia respectively.

Rukia held the hot tea in both hands, and sipped it.Ichigo always felt that the other party should have something to tell her about her mother when she came to her.

Ishida Ryuzuru didn't say a word, and at the end Ichigo felt that the scene was so stiff that he was about to suffocate. In such a scene, she couldn't help but speak.

"Uncle, it's not as simple as drinking tea when you come here with us."

Ishida Longxian's eyebrows and eyes could not be clearly seen in the mist from the tea, his lenses were foggy, but he himself didn't care, he took off his glasses slowly and wiped them with the lens cloth placed by the table.

"You are very similar to Masaki," he put on his glasses, his dark blue eyes were calm, "but she has short hair at your age."

Ichigo was deeply hurt by the word mother, she was sad and angry and wanted to shoot the case, Rukia put her hand on her hand, signaling her to calm down.

"You're not an ordinary person, are you?" Rukia looked directly into Ishida Ryuseki's eyes.

"If you're talking about this power," Ishida Longxian burst out with a powerful spiritual pressure, and the two had no time to guard against it, so they could only lie on the table to temporarily avoid the spiritual pressure.Ishida Longxian withdrew the spiritual pressure, looked down at them, "I hate this kind of power."

His words pointed sharply and bluntly at Rukia: "You made her become like this."

Rukia was speechless to refute his words. Ichigo stood up and walked to Ishida Ryuuen, grabbing his collar, but the other party remained motionless: "I did it myself, what right do you have to say that about Rukia? Even if you are Mom's friend, don't go too far."

Ichigo let go, and Ishida Ryuzuru changed his indifference, and smiled sadly: "It really is Masaki's child."

"I have something for you." Ishida Ryuuen walked into the bedroom, leaving Ichigo and Rukia alone.

Rukia walked to Ichigo in a daze, she must look very ugly now.

"Ichigo, he's right."

Ichigo snorted: "What are you afraid of, Rukia, you are a real god of death, I'm not afraid yet."

"Stupid, aren't you also an agent of death!"

"You two, don't shout loudly in other people's houses."

Ishida Ryūshū just came out, seeing that Rukia was about to jump up and hit Ichigo on the head, he couldn't help turning up the volume.

The two immediately became honest, and Ishida Ryuzuru handed over the photo in his hand to Ichigo. In the photo, Masaki looked down at the child in his arms with tender eyes.

"Look behind you."

Ichigo knew that the child was herself. She had never seen this side of her mother, so she could only look for her gentle shadow in her memory.

"My most precious child - Ichigo."

The handwriting on the back has turned slightly yellow, but it can still be seen that the person who wrote it was extremely attentive, and her eyes suddenly became sour. She didn't want to cry in front of others, so she wiped her eyes carelessly, and said thank you to Ishida Longxian.

"Come to me later if you need it."

"Thank you, uncle."

Before Ichigo left, Ishida Longxian emphasized: "Call me uncle."

Ichigo: "It's almost not..."

Ishida Longxian looked at her expressionlessly.

Ichigo was defeated by this look: "I know Uncle Ishida."

Ishida Ryuzuru watched them leave, remembering his promise with Masaki.

"Xiaolong, if I have a child in the future, I will let her run around behind you, call you uncle, and make you happy."

"Then I'll take good care of her."

"Then I will promise you for this lucky child first. This is an agreement between the two of us."

"it is good."

Masaki, maybe it's not too late to respond to this promise now.
