[Death] One Heart

Team Zero leaves the palace

Renji was scarred all the way, and his body and mind were "destroyed" to varying degrees. Just now, he completely stripped himself in front of a woman who hadn't seen him for more than five seconds, and even fought with a knife while blushing. The idea of ​​letting me die in the comprehensive treatment room" became more and more intense, and Lian wanted to scream to the sky countless times, "Do you really have no other way to give me a new set of clothes besides stripping me naked?"

【Rukia, I'm sorry for you. 】

Renji really didn't dare to think of such an idea. As for why he felt sorry for Rukia, he was embarrassed to think about it.

Arriving at Ichibingei's Lidian with the Death Warrior outfit, the whole person was overwhelmed by the ultra-high concentration of spiritual particles on the ground, it was useless to hold on to the body, and it became extremely difficult to breathe.

"You don't need to give me such a big gift, do you?" The familiar voice came to Renji's ears, Renji turned over vigorously, and Rukia's familiar figure came into view.

"Do you want me to help you?" Rukia took Renji's hand and helped him lean against the wall.

"Only when we can stand up and fight can we proceed to the next step." Ichibei came in to check the situation, left this sentence and went out.

"Why are you here?" It was difficult for Renji to speak, but he couldn't help but want to talk to her alone.

"I've finished my work. I received a call from Qilin Temple saying that my elder brother's injury is healed. I originally planned to accompany my elder brother all the way, but it seems that something extraordinary will happen to Oorishou." Lucia laughed.

Renji looked at her quietly, because of a few days of rest and the recovery of strength, Rukia's face turned red, and she changed into the combat leather jacket she usually wears, a long red coat, and short hair. He wore a red-orange-black hair accessory on his head, and the necklace around his neck was tucked into his clothes.

Renji took a closer look at the hair accessory, and it turned out to be the hair of himself, the captain, and Ichigo.

[Lukia, have you been having a bad time for the past two years? 】

Feeling Renji getting closer to her, Rukia shrank away, scratched her head and said, "Ah, how are you doing recently?"

【how have you been?How can I live without you? ] Renji really wanted to ask this question.

In the past two years, he has lived very peacefully, with almost no changes, except that he talks less and less and drinks more and more wine.There was another goal in the past: to surpass Kuchiki Byakuya, and now this target person looks the same as him on the surface and has not changed, only they are clear in their hearts, and their hearts are empty.Bai Zai no longer criticizes some of his mistakes too much, because he will correct himself, if he can't do it well, he will do it over and over again, Renji dare not let himself stop.In Midnight Dream, Rukia stretched out her hands and swallowed her last breath, and was chained and stared blankly.What can I do if I am not reconciled?Rukia will not be able to forgive herself for the rest of her life if she is so stupid to bump into Judu.You can't move forward, you can't go backward. In the past, you could paralyze yourself with the high-sounding excuse of "taking you back from Kuchiki Byakuya" for 40 years. What excuses are you looking for now?

Life is just to live to fulfill one's duties. The best proof is that Yijiao is more and more willing to practice sword with him, and beat him to the side covered in blood. Yijiao understands that he can't persuade him, he can only knock him out, don't Let him think wildly again.

[Lukia, can you stay, can you take me with you? 】

Renji withdrew his gaze, "Ah, you're doing well, where's Ichigo?"

"I just came back to the Phoenix Palace to build Zanpakudao. I came here because I didn't have anything to do. I guess you will need my help here."

【I need you much more than you can imagine, Rukia. 】

"This knife doesn't seem to be your Sode Shirayuki."

"This knife is Onikiri. I saw that Ichigo's knife was broken and asked Cassius to come."

"Famous sword Onikiri? Can you show me such a good thing?" Renji took Onikiri from Rukia, "It's really a good knife, you're really willing to give it to him."

"Ah, why are these words so sour, don't be jealous, I have a gift for you too." Lukia handed him a black iron hairpin, "Last time I pulled out your hairpin to save you and let bloodletting, and I won't do it again after that." I know where I lost it, this kind of ore is unique to other worlds, it is extremely hard, so take it with you and play with it." Lucia saw that he couldn't lift his hand, so she helped him insert it into his head.

"After the Rukia war, will you...will you stay?" Renji raised his hand with difficulty to touch the black iron hairpin that Rukia gave him.

[What else do I have after the war is over? 】

Rukia only dared to think in her heart and didn't want to say it, "I don't know."

"Lukia, in fact, I have never changed in the past 40 years, no, it has been longer, I am right..." Renji suddenly wanted to make clear what he had hidden for a long time. Whether he can survive to the end, he doesn't know if there is still a place for him in Rukia's future, at least say what he wants to say now.

"Renji," Rukia lowered her voice, put her index finger on her lips, and made a "silence" gesture, "Stop talking, don't say anything, if you continue talking, you and I will never turn back , Me and Ichigo..." Rukia didn't continue.

"Ah, that's good, then I have nothing to worry about." Renji smiled wryly, after all, it was too late, not when Rukia went to another world, or when he just became the vice captain of the sixth team Why didn't you chase after her and tell her?

[It's too late. 】

"Renji, you have to stand up, otherwise you won't get training, and our time is running out. This retreat of the Star Crusaders will never give us too much breathing room." Rukia interrupted him.

"Yes, I have to stand up, so let's continue fighting side by side."

"The tenth time, stand up Renji." Rukia pointed at Renji with a wooden knife.

"It's really a turn of events, please Rukia." Renji stood up unsteadily and rushed towards her.

"Wait a minute," Rukia yelled and covered her ears, but in an instant, "Seireitei...disappeared..."

"What... what?" Renji was also stunned.

"No, it's too late, I'll go and have a look first." Lukia dropped the wooden knife, and Lukia, who kept saying that she would not participate in the battle, was more anxious than anyone else, and reason could not defeat a guarded heart.

"Wait, Miss Kuchiki," Ichibei came in without knowing when, "Renji go first, it will be more convenient for you to go down, Miss Kuchiki needs to prepare other things."

"Okay," Renji threw away the wooden knife and flew away.

Lucia looked worriedly at the direction he was leaving, and said after a while, "Come on, what's the point of keeping me here?"
