Chapter 1478.1: Flowers
— From your gaze... I'm getting uneasy, " Rangiku Matsumoto said, frowning.
Now, she felt that Su Xiao was really ready to eat her at any moment.
— Really? Su Xiao asked and smiled, looking harmless and relaxed.
— That's it, we're here, " Toshiro said, stopping in front of a two-story wooden building that was relatively close to the central Seireitei district.
Pushing open the sliding door, they found themselves in a room that had obviously not been lived in for a long time.
Soon, Su Xiao, Toshiro, and Rangiku sat cross-legged across from each other in front of the wooden table in the room.
— I'm very busy, so I'll keep it short — " Toshiro said, putting his hands in his lap and continuing after a moment's thought: — I'm not interested in your background. What I want to know is what you want to do.
Toshiro was very direct, or rather, he wanted to test Su Xiao.
— Goal?.. I haven't thought about it yet.
The most irreplaceable quality in Paradise was the ability to pretend. If you didn't want to be tricked by a certain group, the best thing to do was pretend that you were cute and fluffy.
Su Xiao might not really be good at devising brilliant plans, but he knew how to disguise himself. In this case, he was much better than the Noble Nightmare. After all, he was a murderer in the past. If he didn't know how to disguise himself well, the grass on his grave would have already reached a height of several meters.
— I don't like that answer, " Toshiro said, lowering his gaze.
This brat wasn't easy to deal with, of course, this rule only applied to ordinary people.
— To be honest, I can name any goal I want. Revenge? Gain strength? Get the status? Su Xiao tapped his fingers lightly on the table. The expression on his face was very natural, and as he spoke, he was actively looking at the interior of the house. - Unfortunately, I haven't yet figured out what goal I should complete. I came here for a simple reason. Wandering around Rukongai became too boring. It just so happens that I'm good at concocting various potions, so I decided to come to Seireitei and try my luck. Maybe I can become a shinigami?
— Becoming a shinigami ... " muttered Toshiro and shook his head. Given Su Xiao's bloody aura, it was unlikely that the Soul Society would choose to accept a shinigami like him.
— Did you feel my bloody aura? Do you think it's too heavy? Most of it was created during my lifetime, at the expense of all my sins. There is a lot more evil in the world than you could imagine even in your worst dream. Interrogations, infiltrating enemy camps, assassinations behind enemy lines, sabotage behind enemy lines... everything related to murder, I'm very good at it, but I haven't done it for a long time.
— … — Toshiro frowned. He felt that Su Xiao was too outspoken, such things should be kept a secret.
— I didn't come here looking for a high position, so you don't need to trust me. Compared to wandering aimlessly around Rukongai, this place is obviously much more interesting.
— Is it really that simple?
— You can watch everything with your eyes. If you find anything out of the ordinary, you'll kill me. Of course, this will not be so easy to do...
— That's enough, let's move on to another topic.
So far, Toshiro Hitsugai hadn't seen anything wrong with him, but Su Xiao was too suspicious, however, it was this suspicion that made him wonder this: if some spy wanted to infiltrate Soul Society, would they really try to infiltrate like this?
— Can the potion you gave us earlier be put into mass production?
— No.
— Toshiro was a little disappointed. Although the shinigami had their own healers and all the necessary medical care, there were very few restorative potions that could be used right in the middle of a fight. This was due to the shinigami's special physique. Potions that did not contain a large amount of spiritual particles affected the shinigami's bodies only in a very limited way.
— What I gave you earlier is just a prototype, I created it from a couple of improvised materials in a hurry. Why put such garbage into mass production?
— Toshiro's hands froze on the wooden table. The reason why he was talking to Su Xiao was because of the strategic value of the previously passed down alchemy potion. With this potion, the death rate of shinigami in battles against hollows will be significantly reduced. When shinigami went out to fight the hollows, they obviously weren't always able to take all the doctors they needed to save their lives in the event of a serious injury..
Su Xiao looked at Rangiku Matsumoto and asked for a piece of paper.
Soon, he listed dozens of materials on it.
He planned to create a weakened version of the ancient secret potion, weaken its recovery part, and add a large amount of solid spiritual particles to it.
