"Sister Lucia, how are you doing in Team 13 during this time?"
Natsuhiko and Lucia sat on the bank of the moat, watching the river slowly gurgling in front of them. There were many people walking together on the nearby river. Δ
Today Xia Yan specially invited Lucia out to enlighten her, but he couldn't say it directly and could only let Lucia take the initiative to tell her.
Lucia said calmly: "It's okay."
When Xia Yan heard this, he asked cautiously: "Is something wrong?"
Kuchiki Rukia frowned and said, "It's not a big deal."
Xia Yan said worriedly: "But sister, you don't look very happy. Don't keep it in your heart. Tell me."
Lucia glanced at Xia Yan, sighed, and said, "You are the only one who still comes to me now."
Natsuhiko said nothing and looked at Rukia, who smiled bitterly and continued: "Since I entered the Kuchiki family, Renji Abarai, Izuru Kira and Momo Hinamori basically ignored me, and I did not take the graduation exam. I joined the 13th team and was criticized by other people in the team. Except for the deputy captain, few people paid attention to me. I don’t know why it happened like this.”
Natsuhiko knew what Rukia was talking about, and Renji Abarai didn't go to him because of what they thought was his noble status.
The great noble is almost the most precious identity in the Seireitei now. The Soul King is not known to most people. Even Aizen only found out about it when he heard Kyoraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jushiro chatting about Hikifune Kiryu.
Therefore, Abarai Renji's staying away was not only due to inferiority complex, but also to protect Rukia.
If others knew that she had a close relationship with him from Xudiao District, they might gossip about her.
These were Abarai Renji's exact words, so they chose to stay away.
As for the exclusion of teammates, Rukia entered Team 13 without going through assessment and training, which is a bit unfair.
Coupled with jealousy, Rukia now has few friends, except Shiba Haiyan, who will often take care of him, but it is not enough.
This period was a relatively lonely period in Rukia's life, but then both Shiba Haiyan and Shiba died, and Shiba Haiyan was killed by her herself, so she felt guilty for a long time.
Xia Yan looked at Lucia and said, "They didn't see you because they wanted to protect you, because they were afraid that others would associate you with the chaotic place in Xudiao District."
A wry smile appeared on Lucia's lips and she said, "I don't mind."
Xia Yan said: "But they mind, they want you to become better, they want you to become stronger, so they decided to stay away from you."
Lucia said with a sad face: "If I am separated from you and still suffer criticism, then I would rather not join the Kuchiki family."
Natsuhiko couldn't say that the Kuchiki family was the family your sister married into. He could only say: "Don't worry about this. You may not know that Renji has been working hard to cultivate."
Rukia Kuchiki said with a smile: "I know he always wants to become stronger."
Xia Yan shook his head and said, "But his motivation for training is not to become stronger."
Lucia asked curiously: "What is that for?"
Xia Yan replied: "He practices hard so that he can stay by your side naturally."
Hearing Xia Yan's words, Lucia's face turned red and she said, "What do you mean, why does he want to stay with me."
Xia Yan asked with a smile: "Sister Lucia, you can't tell, right? Brother Renji likes you, very much."
Lucia said softly: "How could it be?"
Xia Yan replied: "Of course it's true. He feels that only by becoming the vice-captain can he stand by your side, so he has been practicing hard."
In the original work, Renji Abarai was looking forward to it after being notified that he would become the vice-captain. He originally wanted to tell Rukia, but Rukia left for the present world, so Renji Abarai said that he would wait for Rukia to come back.
As a result, Rukia stayed in this world for a long time, until she violated Seireitei's regulations and had to be arrested by the Sixth Division.
Renji Abarai likes Rukia. This is obvious. In addition, the two are childhood sweethearts. They have been together in Xudiao District for ten years, helping each other to survive the cold winter and survive. This kind of relationship is not a bad relationship. close.
When Rukia heard this, she blushed and said, "There is no need for him to become the vice-captain."
Xia Yan asked with a smile: "Sister Lucia, do you mean that I can pursue you without becoming the vice-captain?"
"That was not what I meant."
Lucia waved her hands quickly and said: "I don't like him, I just said that he wants to be my friend, whether he is the vice-captain or not."
Xia Yan smiled and said: "But he doesn't think so. He hopes to be worthy of you and is willing to work hard for it. Although you don't mind, there are always people who will mind. Your brother and other members of the Kuchiki family will do the same. think."
Rukia was speechless when she heard this.
But at this time, Xia Yan said again: "Also, your teammates are ostracizing you because they think you entered the 13th team through the back door, so prove it to them and let yourself have the strength to enter the 13th team."
Lucia nodded and said, "I will try my best."
Xia Yan laughed and said, "But you have to remember, no matter where you are, no matter what you are doing, we will be by your side."
If history really cannot be changed and she is still framed by Aizen, Natsuhiko will definitely fight to save her.
Rukia smiled and said, "Thank you."
After Xia Yan's words, Lucia felt much better. It didn't mean that Xia Yan had solved her problem, but he told her that these friends had not left her and were still by her side.
The main thing Lucia does now is to live optimistically, practice hard, and make herself stronger.
"You're welcome."
Xia Yan said with a smile, but at this moment, he saw a figure running towards this side.
Xia Yan was slightly wary. The visitor came to Xia Yan, gasping for air and said: "Lukia, Vice Captain Haiyan is calling you."
Lucia was slightly stunned and asked: "Senior Haiyan called me? What's the matter?"
The other party said: "It seems that Yongyin has some troubles that cannot be solved by one person and needs support. Vice Captain Haiyan asked you to go."
"Okay, I'll go right away. Xia Yan, let's talk when you get back."
Lucia said something to Xia Yan, and then left quickly with the visitor.
"be safe."
Natsuhiko shouted from behind, hearing Rukia reply "I know" and watching her disappear at the end.
Xia Yan waited for her to leave before turning around and leaving.
(Important explanation: In fact, the end of this chapter was not originally like this. In the outline, it was written that Lucia would be put into the Bengyu this time. Some people think that the Bengyu in Lucia's body was not released when the spirit bones were given. The reason is that Aizen had arranged for Rukia to go to the present world. In addition, the extra chapter proved that Rukia had been to the present world once, but many people speculated that this was the case. The first time I put it in, the memory was erased.
I originally wrote it this way, but then something went wrong.
Because in fact, Aizen asked Rukia to come to the world in order to attract Kurosaki Ichigo's power of death. This was only described in a positive way more than 500 chapters in. Aizen wanted to see Kurosaki Ichigo who combined the three powers. Protect, draw out the power of virtuality step by step. So he asked Rukia to give him the chance to become a Shinigami, so it cannot be proven that Aizen let Rukia go because he knew she was going to the living world.
What Aizen described when he defected cannot prove that he had discovered it earlier. He said that he first discovered Bengyu's hiding method (put it in his soul), and then he already knew the location of the mask (more than 500 chapters later). The description states that the location in the real world has been determined). At this time, Rukia happened to go to the real world to station. Aizen used Rukia to lure Kurosaki Ichigo's death power. At this time, Rukia used the righteous bones, but Soul Society The location of all the righteous skeletons can be traced, but Rukia's can't be traced, so Aizen remembered that there is another kind of righteous skeleton, created by Urahara Kisuke, that can make Soul Society untraceable. In other words, Rukia Kuchiki’s body was given to her by Urahara Kisuke.
After Aizen confirmed this matter, Rukia suddenly lost her spiritual power. Aizen judged the possibility of Bengyu from the hiding methods of Lucia and Bengyu who had lost their spiritual power, and the fact that Urahara Kisuke gave Rukia the body of justice. Hidden in the corpse, and Urahara Kisuke tried to hide the soul with Rukia, but Aizen could not find Rukia, and reappeared Rukia a few months later, so he killed the Central Room 46 to let him Rukia returns.
Therefore, the setting of this book is that Bengyu was placed in the body, and when Lucia put it on, she lost her spiritual power. It was not released in advance.
Originally, the ending of this chapter was not like this. There would be a twist. I deleted them all. I could only write them all to comfort Rukia. It is a bit watery. I will explain the setting and chapter content here.)
