Walking the Fox

[Since you disappeared from my world, then I will go to your world to find you again...]

The dark eyes suddenly opened. The girl was wearing a snow-white short kimono and sat up straight against the bed. Her pupils were not fully focused, and a pair of animal ears appeared on the top of her head at some point, but she was unconscious.

This is a world full of white, and there are not many broken faces in the empty palace. Staying here for a day is equivalent to a month of suffering.The light pink coat beside the bed was given to her by Ichimaru Gin from Pomian. Even if she put it on, she was still cold. The cold was different from ordinary cold, it was so cold that it hurt like bone marrow.

This biting cold can easily remind her of the moment Hitsugaya Toshiro died in front of her many years ago... the surroundings were frozen into ice, and the ice-coloured knife pierced straight into the boy's body, The black Shiba outfit, the white haori and the shining silver hair were all stained with bright red blood. Standing under the balcony, her eyes were quickly stained with blood red. Before she could even scream, the silver-haired boy finally fell into the All she could see was the corner of the white feather, which fell from the air and landed in front of her.

Whenever she thought of the scene at that time, she couldn't stop crying from her eyes, and she lay down on the bed again, shrinking herself into a ball.

Loneliness spread in the room, gnawing at the young girl in the room bit by bit.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open.

A young man with no expression on his face, paler than Ichimaru Gin, dark green eyes, black broken hair, dark green tear-stained makeup on his face, and a spiked helmet-like mask on the left half of his head pushed him away from the outside A cart comes in.

The car is full of food, and there are many of them.

Smelling the aroma of food, she got up again, climbed out of bed and approached the cart.

Her eyes and attention were all on the food, and she unconsciously ignored Ulquiorra Cifer who was standing at the door, staring at her with dark green eyes for a moment.

Picking up the food, stuffing it into her mouth one by one, chewing it carefully, until there was no food in the car, until she felt that it was almost done, she turned her head to look at the broken-faced youth who had been staring at her.

"What do you see me doing?" she asked, with no waves in her voice.

"You're different from that woman. She hasn't eaten anything until now, but you... ate almost all the food on the cart." When he said this, he deliberately paused, and then said : "Your companions are here to save you, but whether they can get here safely is another matter."

"Oh." She replied flatly, then turned around and walked back to the bed.

The room was empty, with nothing but basic furniture.

Seeing that she didn't respond, a trace of surprise flashed across Ulquiola's calm eyes.

The girl in front of her is weaker than that woman by more than a little bit. Just like Yami said, she can be completely crushed to death with one finger. Humans without spiritual power can't stay here for too long. It won't take long before she will Die, unable to withstand the spiritual pressure here and die.

"You will die if you stay here." He stared at her back and said lightly.

"I won't die." He stopped, turned his head, his dark pupils looked directly at the other person's dark green, and replied calmly.

She won't die, everyone is dead, and she won't die either.

"I won't die." She said it again, as if trying to persuade something.

"You are even stranger than that woman." Frowning, Ulquiorra looked at her and said.

"To you, both sister Zhihime and I are strange. Our living environment is different, and our education is different. You will be surprised, but I am not surprised. In my eyes, you are also strange Yes, you who live here are all strange." How can you live in such a cold, white, colorless world?If you want her, you will definitely go crazy.

"Are we... strange?"

"Yes, it's very strange, I can't understand you." This is the truth, she really can't understand the residents in the virtual circle.

"Why do you have ears?" Not wanting to dwell on this question, Ulquiola stared at her head and asked a question that she had wanted to ask since she came in.

"Is it strange?" He raised his hand and touched the ears protruding from the top of his head.

"Why do humans have ears?" He couldn't understand the pair of animal ears.

"Humans have ears." It's amazing that humans don't have ears!

"Your ears are different from human ears." He knew that humans have ears, but human ears are not like hers, pointy, exactly like fox ears.

"Well, I know." She has been troubled by physical problems for several years.

"Just get used to it," she added.

After finishing speaking, she turned around again, climbed into her big bed, and prepared to sleep for the day.

Here, the girl's life is extremely monotonous. Apart from sleeping and eating, there seems to be nothing else to do.

Here, she couldn't meet Orihime Inoue.

It seems that Aizen doesn't allow it.

"Mr. Ulquiorra is really busy. He delivered lunch there, and he also delivered it to Chiba." The silver-haired young man who hadn't been here for a long time leaned against the door frame. He was wearing the white suit as usual. Robe, with a smile on his face.

Ulquiola didn't reply, and after a slight nod, he pushed the cart and left.

It seems that he is not willing to communicate with Ichimaru Gin.

The broken faces here are indeed very strange. There are very few people who like silver-haired youths, almost none.

Obviously he is a good man.

"Little Qianye, you seem to be a little different." I haven't seen the girl for several days, why is there a pair of animal ears popping out of her head?Strange. "Well, why do you have fox ears?"

Even Ichimaru Gin, who had seen the wind and waves, was slightly confused by the pair of fox ears on Echizen Chiba's head. Do humans have such ears?Something seems wrong.

"Just get used to it." She touched her ears unconsciously, and she replied.

The eyes are calm, the expression is calm, and the breath on the body is also calm.

At this moment, Ichimaru Gin understood that the matter of the girl president Beast Ear must be quite common for her.

Walking forward and coming in front of him, Ichimaru Gin reached out and touched the animal ears on top of her head.

The soft touch makes it hard to put it down.

After pinching and pinching in a playful way, the already narrowed eyes narrowed more like a thin slit.

"Yeah, it's really fun."

It was the first time someone squeezed her ears like that, and she was not used to it. She avoided the other's hand, looked up, looked directly at the silver-haired young man, and said, "Have you squeezed enough?"

"It's fun." Knowing that the girl didn't like it, he withdrew his hand, and the smile on his face seemed a little joyful. "Is this what you were born with?"

"The day after tomorrow." It was caused by unknown factors the day after tomorrow, and so far, no one knows the reason.

But, forget it, these ears are still very useful, every time the beast ears pop out, her hearing and vision will become ten times sharper than usual, which is the intuition exclusive to beasts.

Acquired?

Looking at the girl's appearance, Ichimaru Gin knew in his heart that the other party didn't want to say anything more, since he didn't want to say anything more, then he didn't say anything.

"Do you want to go out for a walk?" This idea popped up in his mind, and he suddenly looked forward to how the other faces of Xuye Palace would react when they saw her pair of animal ears.

Well, things got interesting, fun.

"Okay." Guess what he is going to do, but she has stayed in the house long enough, it's okay to go out for a walk, even if Xuye Palace is white from top to bottom, it doesn't matter.

Holding each other's hand, Ichimaru Gin was surprised by the girl's body temperature when the coldness and warmth came into contact.

Even wearing so many clothes, why is her body temperature still so cold?

As cold as a cold-blooded animal.

"Little Chiba, you seem to be cold?" He asked.

The two walked in the empty Xuye Palace, the silver-haired young man looked down at her and asked.

"Well, but you get used to it when it's cold."

She replied with no expression on her face.

No matter how cold it is, as time goes on, you will get used to it.

Now all the girl's thoughts are on other places, that is, the rescuer who broke into the virtual circle.

Finding her distracted, Ichimaru Gin stopped in the corridor where he could see the outside.

"Are you worried about Kurosaki-kun and the others?"

Echizen Chiba did not speak, but looked up at the blue sky and white clouds that should not appear in the virtual circle.

Not caring about her lack of response, the silver-haired young man went on to say: "Little Chiba has a lot of face, this time people are not only Kurosaki-kun and the others, but also Captain Hitsugaya of the [-]th Division!" woman.

It is really stupid for someone who has worked so hard to protect him to break into the den of wolves and tigers.

Hearing that Toshirō Hitsugaya was among the people who came, there was a ripple in the girl's calm eyes, but that trace was too shallow for no one to notice, not even Ichimaru Gin who was as shrewd as a fox.

Is he here too?

You're so stupid, knowing that there is danger, why do you still come?

"Does Little Chiba think they will come here?"

"Yes." Of course they would come here, without this happening, without the decisive winter battle, without Aizen who lost everything, how could the next thing happen?

Everything that happened in this world continued on the track she knew. Although there were occasional changes, they couldn't change the track of the world's final development.

Here, she is a bystander after all.

However, she is not a bystander only when it comes to matters related to Toshiro Hitsugaya.

Never.
