Chapter 835 - Preparation

Xin looked at the earth jar in her hand and confusedly asked," So, why Sake, not fruit or meat? And I feel that you're planning something bad.."

Young Yoruichi hesitates," Well….. It's just a small drinking party, well… you know…. I just got promoted so… i want to drink today.."

"Really?"

Young Yoruichi nodded.

"I feel something is wrong , master, I smell a conspiracy," Rangiku said.

"Me too."

"Hey~ you guys are too much, I just want to drink today, and besides this Sake is not an ordinary Sake, this is a 500-year-old Sake from my Clan Treasury."

"Then let's drink, I will prepare some side dishes first."

"Nice! Rangiku gets a table and chair, and also prepares a huge umbrella that the Master made last time, we will drink beside the tree."

Rangiku then prepares a square table, chair and a huge parasol and arranges it below the old tree in the yard.

She then took the centerpiece that she just made while training and put it in the middle of the table.

Young Yoruichi on the other hand lazily sit-down and puts the jar on the table.

A couple of minutes later, Xin came back with a plate and put it down in front of them.

"A peanut?"

"Yes, problem?"

"Hey mister, can you at least prepare something more delicious? Like Meat? Or fry fish like the other time."

"Sorry, no fresh fish available today."

"What about meat?"

"Hehe, no meat either, but I have sunflower seed, corn, salted egg, dry fish, melon and other staff."

"Well, then get all of that out, it's much better than the peanuts that you prepare."

"The good," he then looked at Rangiku and said." Take all of our dry food here, and also the huge melon in the icebox."

Rangiku nodded and tottered back to the house,

"I just hear that you want them to start to enroll in school."

"Yes, that's my plan."

"Are you sure? I fully know your expertise, those things at school are pretty useless for them, it much better to learn from you than wasting time at school."

"I can teach them all the things I know, but there's something that a school has that my home dont have, so it's better for them to explore outside than staying in my care."

Young Yoruichi looks at him and asks," Are you going?"

Xin gazed at her and asked," How can you tell?"

"I can sense it easily, I feel that you started to be restless last year, and I think that a great master like you will eventually leave."

That's right, Xin is starting to feel Hougyoku's Spiritual energy from time to time this past year.

He knows that the time is about to come for him to leave that's why he needs to prepare for their future if ever he is going to leave.

All the things they need to learn have already been taught for a couple of years, what they both need is experience and time to fully understand what they learn from him.

Staying is not an option, leaving is the right choice for them, and even if they don't leave, Xin will eventually leave. He is reluctant, that's the truth, but it is impossible to stay forever because he is still trying to find the reason why he throws back the past.

"So you're really leaving."

Xin helpless nodded." It's time."

"So, how much time left?"

"A month or two, and I will leave silently to prevent some unnecessary trouble."

"What about those guys who always bother you?"

He looked at Young Yoruichi and said," Yoru here, and I know that you will not let them harm so I'm assured to leave them."

"You want me to babysit them?"

"You don't want to?"

"Who said I don't want to? I just need to warn the other and that's easy."

"Thank you in advance."

"You're welcome… by the way, do you notice something suspicious around here?"

"Suspicious like?"

"Suddenly death? Or some suspicious looking men walking around the street?"

"Well... about half a year ago, there's a large number of missing people around here, I don't know the reason but it seems that there's a serial killer walking around the neighborhood."

"So, there's a case here too."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, I'm trying to find the cause of these missing people, but even right now, I can't find any clue or even witness about this crime."

"No clue? That's a hard case for you who just got promoted."

"Yeah, that's why I'm here to drink and let my men do the job."

"So you're just lazing around?"

"I'm working okay? I'm just doing it in my way."

"You're still lazy."

"Master, I can't see the dry fish, but I discovered that you're hiding a lamp meat ehre." Rangiku said while holding 20kg lamb meat from Xin's secret storage.

"No meat ha? You actually stingy enough to hide the meat from us."

"I-I'm just…. Preparing for the rainy days?"

"Rangiku go cook that meat!"

"Yes!"

"It seems that… we will goign to eat dry fish after this," He murmured.
