Chapter 355: You're Complaining, Ranju?
Chapter 355: You're Complaining, Ranju?
When Yachiru saw the recovering Shigekuni's fingers move, she was overjoyed.
As Shigekuni's spirit particles gradually replenished, his spirit-based body also began to heal.
In fact, Shigekuni's body had fully recovered several years ago, but she had shown no signs of awakening since then.
Yecheng found this puzzling at the time, but he had no way of knowing the exact reason. After all, this was his first attempt at researching the resurrection of a spirit.
However, Yecheng wasn't overly concerned. Even if Shigekuni didn't wake up soon, he was confident there would be a solution in the future.
After all, if his cheat system connected to some top-tier scientist, handling Shigekuni's situation would be a piece of cake.
"Brother Haiyan, can you say a few words to Miss Shigekuni? I'd like to collect some related data."
Upon hearing Yecheng's words, Haiyan didn't hesitate for a moment. He quickly walked up to the nutrient tank and began chatting with Shigekuni.
"Shigekuni, he's the Yecheng I often talk about. He's my best friend and the savior of our Tagawa Clan.
If it weren't for him taking the risk of defying the taboo, I probably wouldn't have been able to see you again..."
Haiyan was indeed a genius, but when it came to research, he was clueless. Whatever Yecheng said, he followed without question.
As Haiyan spoke to Shigekuni, Yecheng kept a close eye on the instruments before him. Soon, he noticed that when Haiyan talked to Shigekuni, her soul wave indeed showed a certain degree of fluctuation.
This indicated that Shigekuni was indeed responding to Haiyan's words!
"Brother Haiyan, if I'm not mistaken, Miss Shigekuni should wake up soon.
The fact that she's responding to your words suggests that her consciousness is starting to revive. However, I can't guarantee that the resurrected Shigekuni will retain her previous memories."
Upon hearing Yecheng's words, Haiyan was delighted, and he didn't seem to mind the possibility of Shigekuni losing her memories. "I never dreamed Shigekuni could be resurrected. As for other matters, I dare not hope for too much."
Before leaving the Tagawa Clan, Haiyan asked Yecheng to help him request leave from the Vice-Captain.
Yecheng predicted that Shigekuni might awaken within the next half month, so the former workaholic decided to spend this time by his wife's side, ready to support her if any unforeseen circumstances arose.
That evening, Haiyan happily invited Yecheng for a drink at the highest-end Izakaya in Seireitei.
For Haiyan, Yecheng's kindness was immense, and he didn't know how to repay him.
"So, this means Uncle Ichinsei has decided to stay in the World of the Living, right?"
During their drinking session, the two chatted casually and touched upon the topic of the 10th Division Captain, Kurosaki Ichinsei, formerly known as Tagawa Ichinsei.
Don't forget that before he was Kurosaki Ichinsei, he was also a member of the Tagawa Clan.
After the clan's decline, there weren't many members left, and the only remaining captain was Tagawa Ichinsei.
Now, with the retirement of the last remaining Tagawa Ichinsei, the Tagawa Clan had truly fallen to its lowest point.
If it were still one of the four great noble clans, it wouldn't have been so easy for Tagawa Ichinsei to abandon his surname and take on the name 'Kurosaki'.
After all, the nobility of the Soul Society held traditional and outdated ideals, and clan members valued their honor and glory even more than their names.
Taking the example of the Kusajishi Clan, if Tagawa Ichinsei were a member of the clan and abandoned his surname like this, it might have led to inquiries or even pursuit from the family.
"I noticed you didn't seem overly agitated or have radical thoughts about Captain Tagawa changing his surname."
The proverb of a dying camel being larger than a horse came to Night City's mind. He had assumed that Haiyan would have at least gone to the World of the Living to question Tagawa Ichinsei about abandoning the family. Yet, he was surprised by Haiyan's current calmness.
"Uncle Ichinsei is, after all, my senior. Since this was his choice, I naturally have nothing to say."
"But didn't you say that he had to do this to save the person he liked?"
"I actually admire him for that. He was willing to give up everything without hesitation for the person he cared about."
Hearing Haiyan's words, Night City suddenly realized that Haiyan was also a romantic at heart. Especially after Tagawa Tsu's resurrection, Haiyan now saw things more clearly.
He understood that family, in the end, was just a lifeless thing. Only living family members were truly precious.
Moreover, the Tagawa Clan now had only a few remaining members. Tagawa Ichinsei had lost his Shinigami powers, and it would be too dangerous to bring him back to Soul Society. It was better to let him stay in the World of the Living as an ordinary person.
"Your way of thinking is truly admirable. Who knows, in a while, your uncle might help the Tagawa Clan flourish."
Regarding this, Night City didn't speak out of turn. The wedding of the Heizaki couple was approaching, and the greatest wall-hanger of this world, possessing the bloodlines of Shinigami, Exterminationist, and Hueco Mundo Being, was about to be born.
In terms of bloodline relationship, this person was also Haiyan and Kuu Kaku's cousin.
"Night City, you bastard are really here! Damn it, as my best 'friend', you come to such a great place to drink without inviting me. You're really ungrateful!"
Night City and Haiyan were arm-in-arm when Sonben Lun Ju appeared, ready to hint to Haiyan, the head of the Tagawa Clan, to treat his future overpowered cousin well. Perhaps the Tagawa Clan would take off immediately.
But before he could open his mouth, Ran Ju, who had just parted ways with him not long ago, found them.
Seeing Night City drinking fine wine and eating expensive delicacies, Ran Ju shouted that Night City was ungrateful for eating alone.
"Damn it, is it because we completed the Human World investigation mission perfectly that the Captain-Commander gave a bonus or something?
We completed the mission together, and I helped with the investigation, working hard. If there's a bonus, don't forget to split it with me, you bastard!"
Watching Ran Ju casually walk over to Night City's side and snatch the wine glass from his hand, drinking it down, Night City was speechless.
He had been a Shinigami in the Gotei Thirteen for so long, and this was the first time he had heard of a "bonus."
Even if you take a step back and assume there was such a thing as a "bonus," what did it have to do with you, Ran Ju? Damn it, you worked hard on the investigation! If Night City's memory served him right, Ran Ju was the one who had the most carefree time during this Human World investigation mission.
Every day, aside from shopping, drinking, and sleeping, she was almost always just a decorative vase. Damn it, you worked hard!
Tagawa Ichinsei was someone he had met by chance, the work was reported by him, and even during the fight with the Menos Grande, Ran Ju lay there the whole time. And she had the nerve to talk about working hard?
