Aoki Qingtong calmly accepted the protection of Zanpakuto and 28 and Ichimaru Gin.

Sometimes, she behaves like a child, because with a word from 28, she can let go of her defenses, treat you as one of her own, and accept your kindness to her frankly.This is actually quite contradictory.At the beginning, 28 taught her not to trust others, and she obeyed, obeying, which is the expression of trust.

That is not trust.

Many years later, Aoki Qingtong explained that it was dependence.

The words without naming the subject seem to be ambiguous.It's a pity that at that time, no one would jokingly ask—dependence?Is it Ichimaru Gin who depended?

Now, Aoki Qingtong has just finished removing the bandages and changing the medicine.

There is only 28 acquaintances in Xuye Palace - Ichimaru Gin is not considered for the time being, the rest who can be trusted are monsters between Shinigami and Xu, all locked in cages.Aoki didn't shy away from anything, and asked 28 to help her bandage.The girl's snow-white body was naked, and it already had a feminine curve. The movements of 28's hands were very steady, and Aoki showed no embarrassment at all.

"I heard from Lanran that he found you at Liusansan's grave?"

In the dim laboratory, Aoki's voice sounded gently.

28 replied in his usual slow tone: "That's right. I heard on Liuhun Street that Liu Sansan had a blurred phenomenon before his death. I was a little concerned, so I went back to have a look. I met Lan who was curious about the same thing. dye."

"Six Three Three Void?" Aoki's voice was slightly surprised, "Is it because he was bitten by Void?"

"That's right. To put it simply, he was infected by a toxin in Xu's body. He survived, but there were sequelae." 28 skillfully tore the bandage head in half and tied a knot.After finishing the dressing, the old man put the clothes on Aoki's shoulders.

"How did Aizen convince you to work for him?"

"It's just for mutual use." 28 said slowly, his eyes turned to the huge monitor screen again, "He wants to open up the way to Wang Jian, and I want to open up the way home. The two are not contradictory."

Aoki quickly fastened his belt, and immediately changed the subject: "Is there a lollipop that doesn't taste like persimmon?"

"Look for it. If you don't have it, someone who came to help the laboratory probably took it and ate it." Without moving his eyes, 28 reached out to pick up a teacup from the pile of instruments at the side and rear, without even looking at it. After taking a sip, "The persimmon flavor has the best anti-theft effect."

Aoki held up the tray with 28 unique wound medicines, grabbed a handful of persimmon lollipops and piled them on top, then walked out the door.

28 slowly advised: "Eat less sugar, beware of tooth decay."

"I don't like persimmons." Aoki lowered his head and pushed open the door of the laboratory, looked at the lollipops wrapped in the same color candy paper on the tray by the light in the corridor, "Give it to the person who likes it, return the gift. "Aoki said with this sentence that she received the Zanpakuto from 28.

28 points gave her a look: "It should."

knock knock knock.

Knock on the door three times.

Aoki was waiting outside the door with a tray.

Ichimaru Gin's voice sounded a little distant: "Please come in."

Aoki held the tray in his hand and pushed the door open with his shoulder.As soon as I entered the door, I smelled a smell of medicine mixed with blood.The silver-haired boy sat cross-legged on the bed, with a pile of bloody bandages in front of him.The new bandage hadn't been wrapped yet, a white strip was protruding from the loosely covered skirt, and the remaining half roll of bandage was pinched by Gin Ichimaru.

"It's really not the right time for you to come." Ichimaru Gin's tone was slightly blamed.

Aoki's gaze swept across Ichimaru Gin's chest: "It's not like I haven't seen it before."

Ichimaru Gin narrowed his eyes and said in a cheerful tone, "Why do you think our roles are reversed?"

Aoki carefully placed the tray on the bed, picked up a lollipop and peeled off the candy wrapper: "Maybe the author wants to write this article as a female queen."

"...Little Aoki, there are strange things mixed in."

"Because the lollipop I like has a strange flavor mixed in." Aoki stuffed the peeled lollipop into Shimaru Gin's mouth, "Hey, I'll bandage it for you."

Ichimaru Gin turned his back obediently, handed the bandage in his hand to Aoki, and then took off his shirt. With sugar in his mouth, he spoke vaguely: "It's my favorite taste, little Aoki is so gentle."

"...Generally after what I said above, shouldn't you complain that I treat you like a trash can?"

"These two sentences are not contradictory. Why choose the negative instead of the positive?"

"When did you become a positive and nice man?"

"Well, it's Xiao Aoki, you haven't noticed it all this time."

The girl fell silent suddenly, and there was only the sound of bandages rubbing against each other in the room. It took a long time for Aoki to speak again: "I'm really slow. I can't find out a lot of things, I can't figure it out."

Ichimaru Gin held the lollipop stick and took out the sweet and greasy ball from his mouth. As if he knew what the girl was worrying about, he said clearly: "Are you wondering why 28 took refuge in Aizen? It’s not the exact word, but that’s probably what it means.”

The movements of Aoki's hands paused, and Ichimaru Gin knew that he had guessed right.So the boy continued: "Little Aoki, you only care about a few people. Combined with what you have met recently, it is easy to guess who is annoying you." Ichimaru Gin first explained why he guessed right, "28 will I am here only because Aizen gave him a quiet research space. He wants to go home, very much, to return to his roots."

"Don't think too complicated, not everyone's every action is carefully calculated." The young man sat cross-legged on the bed holding a lollipop, his body covered in bandages, but he looked extremely relaxed, "It doesn't matter if you live smarter Yo, little Aoki."

Normally, a young man who is not in good shape speaks clearly and clearly, and his soft tone makes it easy to remember his words in his heart.There was a sense of bewitchment in the rare gentle tone.

Aoki finally asked what he wanted to ask from the first time he saw Ichimaru: "What's wrong with you?"

what happened?

"Who knows." The boy stuffed the candy into his mouth, apparently not intending to answer properly, "Hurry up and bandage it, little Aoki. It's cold in Xuquan at night."

In the closed room without windows, Aoki couldn't help complaining: "Is there daylight in Xuquan?"

Ichimaru Gin smiled vaguely and perfunctorily.

What's wrong, he also wanted to ask himself.The attention to Aoki Qingtong was already too much, but he couldn't stop.The girl approached her unconsciously, as if attracted by something, and stayed awkwardly beside her.

Ichimaru Gin felt very warm, as if he was accompanied by someone while walking at night.He is afraid of losing.

"Little Aoki," Ichimaru Gin asked, "Is it okay to walk?"

"I wasn't pushed here by someone in a wheelchair——" Aoki tied a bow at the end of the bandage playfully, and the position was on the lower right side of Ichimaru Gin's neck, so that it would not be completely covered by the clothes. "Why do you ask such a question?"

"Although the result is not satisfactory. But the trial is over anyway, I will take you to play around the virtual circle in the next time. It feels like a pity to come here and not have a good look at the scenery. Not everyone can come to the virtual circle Yo."

"There is nothing else to see in the virtual circle except the desert. I don't want to go to the Great Virtual Forest anymore." Aoki took the used potion back to the tray, and sprinkled the lollipops on the Shimaru silver bed, "What happened after I passed out? ? I remember when I was sober, your injury was not so serious."

The sugar melted due to the heat in the mouth, and the mouth was filled with a sweet and greasy taste, Ichimaru Gin said: "It's no big deal, didn't we arrive here safely now?"

Aoki didn't delve into it: "When you set off, remember to call me at 28's laboratory."
