Hong Ji

Not long after the firework festival in Ruhun Street ended that day, Ni Fu left the birthplace of Zanpakuto.

Although it wasn't because she found the master's relationship, it was almost the same as the truth.

Ni Fu once told Hong Ji that once the Zanpakuto sensed the existence of its master, it could go to the Soul Realm to give the future master a trial.

Although not all Zanpakuto will choose to do this - after all, some Zanpakuto will stay in the place of birth until they wait for the master's call and then leave - but if they can get in touch with the master before submitting, I think we will get along more harmoniously and tacitly in the future.

No matter how reluctant Hong Ji is to disobey this rare friend, she still knows how important a good master is to Zanpakuto.After all, the future of Zanpakuto is not in their own hands, but in the hands of the god of death who gave birth to them.

So in the end, Hong Ji sent Ni Fu away.

For a period of time after Ni Fu left, Hong Ji was always in a low mood.

Even though she knew that Zanpakuto's world is like this, it's common to greet and send, and she, who used to be a human being and lived in a society bound by the law, was already used to such cruel survival rules, but she always Still can't get out of the trough where my friends left.

Although Xihua was anxious, even just worrying was useless, so in the end, she could only silently accompany Hongji by her side.

Fortunately, when Hong Ji went to Liuhun Street, she happened to meet Ni Fu who had already found her master, and her master who was by her side and was fighting against Xu—although she was young, she was red from his body. But Ji also saw the shadow of Ni Fu.

Especially the grinning look, which is very similar to the former Ni Fu.

It has to be said that if it is Shinigami and Zanpakuto, Hongji inexplicably believes that they should be able to get along well.

After witnessing her friend's current life with her own eyes, Hong Ji felt a little relieved, and her originally depressed mood gradually began to improve, and Xi Hua, who had been worried all the time, felt relieved a lot.

"Seeing that you have finally recovered, I feel much relieved."

One day after Hong Ji returned to normal, Xi Hua sighed so much when she asked Hong Ji to practice her hands, and the hearty smile on her face was the same as before.

Hong Ji naturally knew that Xi Hua had been worrying about herself during that time, and felt a little more apologetic.

"Sorry for worrying you."

It's just that her answer made Xihua reach out and ruffle her hair vigorously. The action was domineering but not rude, "Idiot, sorry for what you said to me, we are friends, it's natural to worry about friends."

"friend……"

Hong Ji was startled, and then she couldn't help showing a small smile as if she was infected by the flowers.

"Thank you, Xihua."

"Idiot, you don't need to say thank you to me."

The days that followed passed quickly, but it was still the same as the past years. Hongji would occasionally practice her skills at the beginning, although during this period she really figured out a new move, But she couldn't break through the swastika that other Zanpakutos said.

(Perhaps it is because the owner has not been found yet.)

Sometimes she thinks so.

However, when she told Xi Hua about this hypothesis, Xi Hua asked her back in surprise, "Why do you think so?"

"how to say……"

Hong Ji thought for a while, but quickly began to organize sentences in her mind. This was her assumption, but if she really said it, it is not unreasonable, "It's not that Zanpakuto is actually made by the soul of the god of death. Are we made up of a part of it, then in simple terms we are a part of Death."

"You can indeed say that," Xi Hua scratched her hair, "Then what does this have to do with Xi Jie?"

"Even if we can create our own swastika according to our own power, to some extent, our power is incomplete without finding a master. If we say that we can't become Shinigami without Zanpakutō , so what about those of us who don’t have a master Zanpakuto?”

Especially when she meets Ni Fu who has already found her master, Hong Ji is even more firm in this assumption.

"Nice theory."

Jinghua Shuiyue had been standing there for some time, after hearing Hongji's words, he said so suddenly, and then saw a familiar look on Hongji's face as a matter of course.

Ever since Ni Fu left, Hong Ji was the only one left on this land, continuing to stand on the front line of fighting against Jinghua Shuiyue to the end.

Although Xihua felt that Hongji and Nifu's reasons for hating Jinghua Shuiyue were too self-willed, she didn't tell their reasons, so the other Zanpakutos in this land still didn't know about Nifu, and still Why does Hong Ji, who is left now, hate Jinghua Shuiyue.

"What are you doing."

Hong Ji's crimson almond eyes stared at the still good-natured - at least that's how it seemed - a mirror image, eyes full of undisguised disgust.

Knowing the reason why Hong Ji hates Kyoka Shuigetsu, Xihua smiled helplessly at the other party. After hearing those two willful reasons, he felt sympathy for Kyoka Shuigetsu who was hated for no reason, but it was only sympathy.

After all, the premise of everything is that he is Hong Ji's friend, and she will tell him the reason why she hates the mirror, and she will trust him as a friend.So even though she felt that Hong Ji's reasons were capricious, Xi Hua still chose to tolerate her in the end.

As for how much kindness there is in that smile, maybe even Xi Hua herself is not quite clear.

Noticing Xihua's smile at Jinghua Shuiyue, Hongji immediately glared at him, and after seeing the other party raised his hands to express his surrender, she turned to look at Jinghua Shuiyue.

"Just to see how you are doing recently, after all, Ni Fu has been gone for a while."

Jinghua Shuiyue showed the temperament and attitude that a gentle and elegant man should have. It is a pity that neither the former Ni Fu nor the current Hong Ji have ever adopted that kind of behavior. On the contrary, the two of them only think that Such a mirror image is very false.

"If you don't appear in front of my eyes, I think I will live better."

Hong Ji never concealed her dislike for Kyoka Shuiyue. The other Zanpakuto who were chatting at the side seemed to have noticed the movement on their side, and stopped what they were doing to look at them.

It was only then that Hongji remembered that Xihua brought her here to participate in the so-called cherry blossom viewing party.

"Forget it, if there is nothing particularly important, I will go back first," Hong Ji turned her head and said to Xi Hua, ignoring the mirror in front of her.

Xihua looked at Hongji, then at Jinghua Shuiyue who was still smiling gracefully over there, with a little helplessness on her face, "But..."

He originally wanted Hong Ji to come here to get together with other Zanpakudao, don't stay at home all the time, he knew that Hong Ji, who was still talking and laughing, turned cold all of a sudden .

Sure enough, she was born to be at odds with Jinghuashuiyue.

"Forget it," Xi Hua finally sighed. Knowing how much Hong Ji hates Jinghua Shuiyue, when Jinghua Shuiyue came out, he also thought that he might continue to keep Hongji, so he could only compromise with Hongji.

"I'll take you back first."

"No need," Hong Ji shook her head, "You can just stay here, I don't know how to get back since I'm not alone."

There is only Zanpakuto in this land, even if she meets those Zanpakuto who come to provoke her, she may not necessarily be the one who loses in the end.

"Are you going to run away?"

Seeing that Xihua was still persuading Hongji, Jinghua Shuiyue at the side suddenly said, "Or can I take this as your fear of meeting me?"

Hearing what Jinghua Shuiyue said, Hong Ji squinted her eyes, and immediately turned around to look at the other party. Her red coat drew an arc in the air, and finally turned into a scarlet afterimage.

The smile on Hong Ji's face had long been suppressed, but in contrast, her eyes were cold, and even had a dangerous gleam.

"This is really not a decent provocation."

She raised her eyebrows.

"Then tell me, what is there about you that can scare me."

Jinghua Shuiyue was still smiling, but Wujiang felt that there was a bit of cunning in his eyes, "Since you are not afraid of me, why didn't you dare to stay after seeing me?"

Although Xihua knew that Jinghua Shuiyue was using aggressive methods to keep Hongji behind, and although he didn't know why the other party was so aggressive, he was still afraid that Hongji would get angry because of this, or that she would really fall into the other party's trick. Leave.

If this is the case, she will be the one who is depressed in the end.

But Hong Ji didn't get angry or blurted out the words "Then I'll stay here for you to see", she just raised her hand to stabilize the hair accessories that were a little loose due to the sudden turn, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face.

No matter whether it is the mirror flower, the water moon or the Xihua, that smile has never been seen before.

There was a rare charm in Hong Ji's smile, she was completely different from her cold face before.Even those Zanpakuto who knew that Hongji and Jinghuashuiyue were not compatible, so they kept looking here, waiting to see a good show, were stunned after seeing this smile, and some Zanpakuto even had wine in their plates. It's all spilled out and I haven't found it yet.

However, as soon as she opened her mouth, Xi Hua immediately realized that the person beside her was Hong Ji in her memory.

I saw that the smile on Hong Ji's face did not change, and when Jinghua Shuiyue was still puzzled, she saw Hong Ji say——

"Isn't it bad luck to see some people on a good day?"

"..."

Xi Hua couldn't help rubbing her forehead. After spending so long with her, he naturally knew how venomous Hong Ji was, but this was originally only shown when they were joking in private.But she didn't expect Hongji to hate the beauty in the mirror to such an extent that she even did not hesitate to say such words in public.

But Hong Ji, who has long been the focus of everyone's attention, doesn't seem to care how amazing her words are. She is always watching the mirror in front of her, and the figure of the other party is reflected in her crimson pupils.

"It seems that you really hate me, Hong Ji."

Surprisingly, the smile on Jinghua Shuiyue's face has not changed at all, he is still smiling and looking at Hongji, his tone seems to be sighing with emotion, "It has been like this since the first meeting, may I know why? ?”

Those bystanders who also didn't know the reason pricked up their ears. In fact, they had been gossiping for so many years, but none of them didn't want to know the real reason; Honestly - although it's unlikely.

"I have always believed that there is no reason to like and dislike."

Hong Ji tilted her head, but what she said was far less innocent than what she showed, "If I say that I hate you without any reason, would you believe me?"

- Know that sometimes the truth is more unbelievable than a lie.

Although what she said was not all the truth.

"I believe."

Unexpectedly, Jinghua Shuiyue nodded lightly under the eyes of everyone, her tone was as gentle as everyone's impression, and there was even a bit of a smile.

"As long as it is what you say, I will believe it."

However, after hearing his answer, Hong Ji shook her head slightly.

"But, I don't believe you."

she says.

"If you really want to say it, you can't make me feel trustworthy no matter what. This may be one of the reasons why I hate you."

Saying so, she glanced at the Zanpakuto sitting under the cherry tree who were either looking at them openly or secretly. The sharpness in her eyes made those people shrink their heads immediately, and those who were chatting started the conversation again , The drinkers also filled up the wine again, but it is unknown how many people's thoughts are still here.

After Jinghua Shuiyue heard these words, her eyes seemed to have changed. She looked at Hongji with a little more inquisitive gaze, but more of it was an emotion that Xihua couldn't read.

"Is that so?"

He sighed softly, as if he understood something, then put away all those complicated emotions, and re-invited.

"So... what if I say I want to invite you to stay and drink with me?"

Hong Ji naturally noticed that the other party's tone had changed, and something seemed to flash in the eyes of Jinghua Shuiyue.

"With you?" She asked back, but there was no emotion in her tone.

"No, with us."

Xihua at the side has been on the sidelines ever since they started talking, fearing that Jinghua Shuiyue might say something wrong and let Hong Ji run away on the spot, but the current scene looks like Hong Ji is deliberately provoking Jinghua Shuiyue, and Jinghua Shuiyue backs down in every possible way.

——Is it his illusion?

"Okay," Hong Ji, who previously claimed that she felt unlucky because she saw someone, for some reason, unexpectedly responded with a change of tone, and then walked over there under the watchful eyes of Xi Hua and Jing Hua Shui Yue.

"I'll just assume it's to accompany Xihua."

Jinghua Shuiyue didn't answer Hongji, but still smiled gently.

Hong Ji didn't pay attention to him anymore, she just turned her head and glanced at her side, she was stunned in place, as if she hadn't regained her composure, "Are you going to stand here all the time, loading wood, Xi Hua?"

"How could that be?" Xi Hua immediately replied.

It can only be said that it happened so suddenly, so suddenly that he didn't react at all, let alone what kind of medicine was sold in Hongji's gourd, "I was just too surprised."

Hong Ji hummed softly, and didn't say anything else, she just walked straight to the place where everyone gathered, but when passing by Jinghuashuiyue, she lowered her voice and whispered something in her ear.

It's a pity that her voice was too soft, so soft that apart from herself and Jinghua Shuiyue, even Xihua who was walking behind her couldn't hear what she said.

Jinghua Shuiyue looked at the back of Hongji going away, the red coat and her loose red hair were shaking gently with her walking, he suddenly thought that what he saw seemed to be Hongji's back forever , and the sound of footsteps fading away.

"It is precisely because of this that I am curious about you and Ni Fu..."

He seemed to be whispering, although there was still a smile on his face, but that smile seemed to be completely different from the one he showed in front of everyone. If Hongji were to comment, maybe she would say "it's not so fake" or something words.

"Then how much of what you said just now is true?"

Perhaps others thought Hong Ji's words just now were too straightforward and reckless, but only Jinghua Shuiyue knew that Hong Ji was testing his bottom line, maybe she was testing something else, although he didn't understand why she did this, and even She chose to stay—he had thought that Hong Ji would refuse again—but all these things would only make her more and more interested in Hong Ji.

Ever since he was born, there has been Ni Fu who has always hated him, and now that Ni Fu has left, fortunately Hong Ji stays behind.Even though she doesn't know when she will leave, Jinghua Shuiyue believes that her life will never be boring in the future.

Even if Hong Ji finds the master, he will only feel his interest getting stronger and stronger.

After all, being able to control—to be precise, a Shinigami who can possess a Zanpakuto like Hong Ji is definitely not an ordinary person, perhaps his future master will think so.

——Your smile is too fake.

What Hongji said just now seemed to be still in my ears, and Jinghua Shuiyue, who was walking towards everyone, put on the smile that Hongji called "too fake" in front of everyone, and as expected, seeing the smile on Hongji's face immediately turned For obvious disgust.

"What are you talking about, you are smiling so happily," Jinghua Shuiyue asked with interest.

"You're here at last. We were just guessing what our future master would be like," said one of the Zanpakutō, pointing at the red wine that was pouring wine with the finger holding the saucer. Ji, "It's just about your enemy."

Hong Ji glared at him, "Jin Shaluo, if you're drunk, go back to sleep quickly, don't open your eyes and talk nonsense here."

What kind of enemy is clearly the enemy.

"Oh? I'm curious how you guessed it." Jinghua Shuiyue was very curious about their guesses, especially Hongji was the one being guessed.

When Jinghua Shuiyue asked this question, someone immediately recounted their previous conversation to him with great interest, "It was said that Hongji's future master must be very skilled, and that her future master would definitely be able to make some weird things in the future, The result was immediately rebutted that it was not something outlandish, but something dangerous would come out."

Zanpakuto's personality is more or less similar to their masters, Hongji's usual performance, as well as the house she built herself and the furnishings in the house are enough to provide evidence for their guesses.

"And then?" Jinghua Shuiyue absolutely did not believe that there was only such a little hypothesis.At least in his eyes, Hong Ji is definitely not that simple - or does it mean that no one but him sees Hong Ji's essence clearly, just like only Hong Ji and Ni Fu see him clearly?

"That guy Xi Hua said that Hong Ji's future master is absolutely not bad, but Hong Ji said some weird things."

"Oh? What did she say?"

This sentence aroused the curiosity of Jinghua Shuiyue. He really wanted to know how Hongji thought of her future master and how she thought of herself.

The person being questioned secretly glanced at Hong Ji, but didn't see any displeasure on her face, so he boldly continued, "Hong Ji said, her future master will definitely be there for some reason. And leave the country.”

This kind of words made Jinghua Shuiyue a little confused, maybe he never thought that Hong Ji was time-traveled—or, in other words, still retains the memory before becoming Zanpakuto.

"Then what do you think?" The Zanpakudao suddenly asked after the gossip, looking very curious about the thoughts of the mirror.

Jinghua Shuiyue looked at Hongji, just in time to meet her gaze, and then he suddenly smiled.

"Perhaps... an existence worthy of observation."

Before Hong Ji could express her opinion, the Zanpakuto who enthusiastically repeated those words for Kyoka Suzuki turned to look at Hong Ji, "Then what do you think Kyoka Suzuki's future master will be like?"

Hong Ji didn't answer immediately, she just drank the wine on her plate, and then spoke slowly in front of everyone's eyes.

"A hypocritical careerist full of lies."

The author has something to say: Zanpakuto is a group of real people!And I finally climbed back and updated the TUT, rolling, leaving a message, asking for collection
