Chapter 286
Rukia sat on the roof and waited until the light from a protective window went out, and then quietly turned over and landed on the window sill after a long time.

In order to pass through the world-crossing gate smoothly the day after tomorrow, she left Yoshiko in Urahara's store according to Urahara's suggestion, and restored the state of death.

[Tomorrow's procedures are left to you, Manager Urahara. ]
[No problem, Kuchiki-san.But are you going back tonight?After staying in the skeleton for such a long time, I suggest that you better stay here to recover.In your current state, not only will it be very difficult to pass through the portal, but the ceremony at the captain's inauguration ceremony that will be held immediately after returning home will also make the soul very painful. ]
[Shop Manager Urahara, you don’t have to worry about this, I have my own discretion. ]
[Rukia, do you really insist on going back? ]
[Well, Miss Yeichi.If you don't go back, that guy will be worried. ]
[Also, it will be very difficult to come and meet Ichigo when you become the captain.Spend more time with him, Xisuke will take care of things for you tomorrow, don't worry. ]
[What are you talking about, Ye Yi.Even if Miss Kuchiki is not convenient to come over, Ichigo will still visit her.There is no restriction on going to the Soul Realm on behalf of Death. ]
[Hehe, look, I forgot too.Rukia, right? ]
[Um?I hope so.]
"Why did you come back so late?"

Ichigo's displeased voice came from the dark room, which brought Rukia who had been standing on the window sill back to her senses.

"I just got what I need tomorrow." Rukia said lightly, jumped off the window sill, and walked to Ichigo who was standing in front of the closet.

"You, why did you turn into a god of death, Yoshiku?" Ichigo asked worriedly, did he encounter collapse?
"Leave it to Urahara, he promised to go through the formalities for me tomorrow, so there's no need." Rukia said as she opened the closet door, trying to climb in but was blocked by Ichigo.

"What's wrong?" Lucia looked up at him strangely.

"Why didn't you come down from the roof just now?"

Ichigo's eyebrows twitched together, and he just felt Rukia's Reiatsu suppressing him stay on it.
After waiting for a long time without any thought, I decided to turn off the light and wait for her to come in.

[Do you not want to see me? ]
"No reason." Rukia turned her face away, not wanting to explain, because she didn't know why she was afraid to come in.

"Lukia, since when have you been hiding everything from me?" Ichigo couldn't control his emotions, and his voice raised unconsciously.

"Stop making trouble, I'm hiding something from you. Get out of the way, I'm going to bed."

Rukia impatiently tried to push away Ichigo's arm that was lying on the closet door, but Ichigo grabbed her hand when she didn't want to.

"You've been hiding from me the fact that you're going to be the captain this time, haven't you!" Ichigo shouted as he pulled Golukia's arm and pushed her against the wall next to the cabinet door.

"You, how do you know?" Rukia looked at Ichigo with her big purple eyes in surprise.

"Is this true?" Seeing Rukia's undeniable expression, Renji's words became Ichigo's only hope, maybe she really just wanted to give herself a surprise.

"I'm sorry." Rukia hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to look into Ichigo's eyes.

[Why do you apologize, are you really going to never tell me? ]
Ichigo's heart went cold.

"I'm sorry, I just don't think it has anything to do with Ichigo. Um!" Rukia just wanted to explain but found that her head was raised, and she couldn't speak anymore.

At this moment, Ichigo's fiery lips had blocked her cold mouth.

"Do you still say it doesn't matter now?" After a long time, Ichigo moved his lips away, looked at her seriously, and asked in a firm tone.

[If you say we are okay, then I will let us have a relationship! ]
"you."

Rukia was finally able to breathe freely again, but she was completely stunned by Ichigo's actions.

Staring wide-eyed in horror, the whole person froze in Ichigo's arms.

"Lukia?" Ichigo realized that something was wrong with her, and hurriedly hugged her, looking nervously at the frightened person in his arms.

"What are you doing?" After Lucia regained her strength, her first reaction was tears welling up in her eyes unconsciously.

"I, I, I just."

Looking at the tearful Rukia, Ichigo panicked and wanted to express his feelings to her.

But other than blushing and heart beating, he was so anxious that he couldn't say a complete sentence.

"Crack!" A crisp voice made Ichigo calm down.

"I like you."

Ichigo finally said what was on his mind with relief, and after his highly tense nerves relaxed, he felt the left side of his face burning.

Looking down, Rukia was also covering her right hand and looking at herself.

"Lukia, you." Ichigo looked at her innocently, he thought Rukia could accept him.

[Why hit me?Why?Why?Why. ]
There was only one voice in Ichigo's head.

"Excessive! You are too bad!" Rukia fiercely pushed the bewildered Ichigo away and ran out of the window.

"Lukia!" Ichigo reacted and wanted to rush up to catch her but was in vain. When she jumped out of the window, the backhand made a ghost path and knocked him back into the room hard.

[hateful!Was it rejected, that's all? ]
Ichigo frowned, half kneeling on the ground, clutching his numb arm.

Looking at the slender figure that is getting more and more out of reach and finally disappears in the night

"Well, um." Responding vaguely, his footsteps were slow and hesitant, but he finally walked on the familiar way home.

On the silent way home, I could only hear the roar of the torrent under my feet, and occasionally, mixed with the sound of some raindrops hitting the ground.

The footsteps of stepping on the water are submerged in these sounds, and the traces will be completely eliminated naturally with each step.

It's a rainy day that washes away all sense of existence.Whether it is the whole body or the void or the aura of the land, they are all hidden in such a rainy day.

Are they, like me, weak and silent, waiting for the moment when the rain stops?
"Ichigo," suddenly, the girl's voice rang in his ears, and within it, he seemed to hear some kind of strange echo—in his silent heart.

"Eventually the rain will stop and the flood will subside," he said.

Because of the umbrella, he couldn't see the girl's expression.

"Although the heavy rain will wash away many things, they are just sand and dust that don't need to be taken care of. Important things will not be washed away."

"No matter how hard it rains, the important things just hold on tight, just like we hold on to our umbrellas."

The girl raised her head from under the protection of the umbrella, and he could see a strong radiance of conviction shining in her black jewel-like eyes.

"Then, wait for the sunny day to come."

The rain seems to be a little lighter, and the clouds are thinner; the rushing river that has been howling seems to be gradually becoming more stable.

Light spreads from the sky, pure blue, driving away the haze.

"Thank you, Rukia," he finally said.

Thank you for catching me from the rushing torrent.
