Chapter 351: Ranju's Scandalous Broadcast
Chapter 351: Ranju's Scandalous Broadcast
In the Human World, Kusazato Town, the Negan Residence.
After a good night's sleep, Ranju stretched her lithe body, showcasing her voluptuous curves.
The previous night's wedding of the Heizaki couple had left her thoroughly drunk, and she remembered nothing of what happened afterward.
Upon recognizing her surroundings, Ranju realized that she must have been carried back to Night City while she was passed out.
She jumped out of bed, only to wrinkle her nose at the lingering smell of alcohol. Deciding to freshen up, she headed straight to the bathroom.
Despite her inebriated state, Ranju wasn't overly concerned about any potential consequences.
Having known each other for so many years, she understood Night City just as well as Risasha had described the night before—a man with pure intentions but no courage to act on them.
Even if she were to offer herself, Night City might not dare to take advantage. He had that much integrity.
Yawning, Ranju, with her eyes still half-closed, walked straight into the bathroom, not noticing that the door was closed and the light was on inside.
Ranju's morning grumpiness was evident as she had already removed most of her clothes by the time she reached the bathroom.
Night City, deep in thought about life while sitting on the toilet, was contemplating how to report his return to the Soul Society without causing trouble. Suddenly, the bathroom door opened with a click...
"Gulp!"
This was the sound of Night City swallowing his saliva. The unexpected scene before him left him at a loss for words! The sight was so shocking that his brain momentarily froze. As he quickly saved the image in his mental hard drive, a delicate foot, accompanied by a whoosh, flew towards him. The next moment, he blacked out, losing consciousness...
When Night City regained consciousness, an hour had already passed. Ranju, having finished her bath, was now seated nearby, wearing a bathrobe.
Both of them were in their soulless states, unable to use their spiritual pressure. Who knows how much strength that woman had used with that kick to render him unconscious for so long.
"Night City, I told you before not to rely on your good looks and cause trouble in the Soul Society. Now, it seems your kidneys are not functioning properly.
I found you passed out in the bathroom early this morning. If I hadn't pulled you out, disregarding our past differences, you might have drowned in the toilet.
Rest assured, as your best friend and drinking buddy, I won't go around telling people about your kidney problems."
Night City, upon waking up, was completely dumbfounded by Ranju's words.
Ranju's demeanor and expression showed no signs of deceit, and seeing her so calm and composed, Night City almost believed that everything that had happened was just an illusion.
"Could it be that I'm just too tired recently?" Night City would never admit to having kidney problems.
You can question his morals and strength, but never a man's kidneys!
"No, that's not right! It definitely wasn't an illusion..."
At first, Night City was almost deceived by Ranju, but when he retrieved the precious JPGs from his mental hard drive, he instantly confirmed that what had transpired was not an illusion but a real event.
Ranju's words were merely a ruse, and she was trying to pin the blame on him.
"It's probably because I was too exhausted from last night's battle that I had a hallucination, but it's definitely not because of my kidneys!"
Yecheng understood why Ranju would make such an excuse; she was too embarrassed to admit the truth, so she tried to brush it off by claiming he had a hallucination.
After all, she was in the wrong in this matter, and Yecheng had done nothing wrong. Even if Ranju wanted to confront him, there was no valid argument to be made.
Yecheng, understanding Ranju's thoughts, agreed with her excuse to avoid her embarrassment. After all, he had nothing to lose, and he had received such a huge favor.
However, Yecheng would never agree that his fainting was due to kidney issues.
Hell no, he wouldn't believe a word of Ranju's promise, not even a punctuation mark.
If this guy got drunk and started spreading such nonsense, it would surely spread throughout the entire Soul Society!
"Those people from last night, Captain Furukawa Kiyotsugu, and Captain Tagawa, they were all on the same side, right?"
Seeing that Yecheng didn't refute her hallucination, Ranju slightly lifted the corners of her mouth and began to seriously discuss last night's events.
The reason Ranju enjoyed spending time with Yecheng wasn't just because they both liked drinking; it was also because Yecheng was not only smart but had exceptionally high emotional intelligence.
Although he usually appeared lazy and decadent, in reality, his thoughts were more delicate than anyone else's. He could keenly sense others' emotions and instinctively care for and yield to them.
Ranju usually seemed carefree, but in truth, she had high emotional defenses, and she never acted impulsively during missions.
Yet, Yecheng was one of the few people she could let her guard down with and act impulsively around.
"You know about last night's battle? I thought you were completely passed out drunk.
No, if you weren't entirely drunk, why didn't you get up and help? I almost got beaten to death last night!"
Yecheng originally didn't want to discuss the Menos Grande incident with Ranju, as knowing too much wouldn't benefit her.
However, he didn't expect that Ranju would be conscious last night, watching from the sidelines!
"Help? Are you sure that if I had joined the battle last night, I'd be of help and not a hindrance?
Those former Captains and Vice-Captains are like monsters in strength. Although I could barely stay conscious last night, I'd definitely get beaten up if I fought.
Of course, within your Daoshan Crystal, I was constantly monitoring the situation. If you were at a disadvantage, I'd immediately use the communicator to contact the Soul Society.
But what I didn't expect was that you, Yecheng, are indeed a thorough monster. In a one-against-many situation, you knocked them all down!"
Thinking about last night's battle, Ranju still felt like it was a dream. She knew Yecheng was strong, but she never imagined he was this powerful.
This bastard, with his strength off the charts, had been pretending to be an ordinary guy. Before last night, Ranju thought Yecheng might be the strongest Vice-Captain, but after witnessing the battle, she realized it wasn't just about being the strongest Vice-Captain. In the entire Soul Society, there were probably not even a handful of people who could defeat Yecheng!
