When Senju Cheng walked out of the meeting room, he still felt extremely surprised.
'Is this... just a mid-level noble? '
Senju Makoto looked a little surprised.
Even though the "middle-level nobles" seem to be quite ordinary, you must know that Zhanfeng's family has joined the secret mobile team for generations to serve the Sifengyuan family, and they are only the lowest-level lower-level nobles.
Risa Aoki is a mid-level noble, but that is the status of the mid-level noble that the Aoki family maintains by serving as the chief officer of the fourth division and the squad leader of a certain rescue team for generations.
And Senju Makoto was directly awarded the status of "intermediate noble", which can be said to be a step to the sky.
It can be said that even if Senju Makoto becomes too old or can no longer work in the Fourth Division, he can retire as a noble and still be a member of the Seireitei ruling class.
Of course, the situation of Senju Makoto and Aoki Risa is somewhat similar now, and there is essentially only one person left in the entire noble family.
If you really want to stabilize your noble status, then in addition to other important factors, the most important thing is to spread your branches as soon as possible.
Senju Makoto thought about it carefully and soon understood that this was not so much a reward given to him by Captain Yamamoto, but rather a thank-you gift from the Kuchiki family.
Although Senju Makoto did not deliberately pursue aristocratic status in the past, thinking about the various privileges possessed by nobles...
"Tsk...it seems pretty good. In this case, Rangiku can be placed in the Serenity Garden as a maid in a while."
Just when Senju Makoto wanted to use the real power of the nobles to do something truly useful in the future, a gentle but cold wind-like voice came to Senju Makoto's ears.
"Rangiku? This girl's name is quite nice."
Senju Makoto narrowed his eyes slightly, turned around and was shocked to find that Unohana Retsu had ended the meeting at some point and was standing behind him.
Unohana Retsu's smile... was still looking at Senju Makoto with such tenderness and charm.
However, Qianju Cheng felt some kind of terrifying evil light from the slightly exposed slits in Uozukaretsu's eyes.
Senju Makoto shuddered instinctively and explained again and again. "No, no, no, Unohana-sensei, you have misunderstood. Rangiku is a little loli who is much younger than Zaihou."
"oh?!"
It's okay not to mention Zaihou, but it seems that as soon as Zaizu Unohana Retsu's smile begins to slowly fade away, the Zanpakutō that was originally held casually in both hands, his right hand slowly moves up the direction of the hilt. Less, said.
"Cheng, have you already developed such bad interests just after becoming a noble? You really can't condone it, otherwise Cheng might grow crooked."
After a pause, Uozhihua Lie put one hand completely on the handle of the knife and said softly. "Cheng, do you need the teacher to help you practice a little bit?"
"No... no... no need, teacher..."
Senju Makoto said, waving his hands in front of his chest.
"Teacher, have you forgotten? You should have seen Rangiku, the little orange-haired lolita who lost part of her soul in Rukongai."
"Huh?" Maozhihualie raised his eyebrows slightly, seeming to be somewhat impressed.
Immediately, Senju Makoto briefly explained the situation about Matsumoto Rangiku.
Of course, Senju Makoto only said that he accidentally met Matsumoto Rangiku again in Rukongai, and learned that she was looking for Ichimaru Gin, so he felt compassion and took care of her a little bit.
The next moment, Senju Makoto felt that the danger from Unohana Retsu had completely disappeared, and that gentle and elegant smile seemed to be just Senju Makoto's illusion.
"I see, Cheng is still so gentle and kind."
"Of course, I am a disciple of Master Unohana..." Senju Makoto answered obediently.
"Ah, Cheng has started again. He can always praise you from different angles. If you praise the teacher like this, the teacher will not be particularly happy~"
As Retsu Unohana led Senju Makoto back to the Fourth Division's building, his voice rose slightly at the end of his words.
"Teacher Uozhihua, you are wronging me..."
Senju Makoto looked quite helpless and aggrieved.
"How can I praise the teacher? I just like to tell the truth more in front of the teacher. The only thing I can't do is to do those things that deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestor."
"Yeah?"
Uozhihualie replied with a gentle smile, which seemed to have some meaning, which made Senju Cheng a little confused.
Afterwards, Unohana Retsu didn't say anything more, but led Senju Makoto directly into the office of the vice-captain of the Fourth Squadron.
Suddenly, Senju Cheng had some bad premonitions for no reason.
The next moment, a flash of inspiration flashed through Senju Makoto's mind, and he completely remembered something that he had missed.
'No...were they discovered? '
For a moment, Senju Cheng felt as if his legs were filled with lead. Facing the door of the office so close to him, he was completely unable to move.
"Cheng, why don't you come in yet?"
As Uozhihua Lie's seemingly gentle voice sounded, Senshou Cheng gritted his teeth and strode in with the courage to sacrifice his life for mercy.
As Senju Makoto approached Unohana Retsu, who was already sitting in the office chair, and saw clearly the notebook placed in front of Unohana Retsu, he felt his eyes darken, and his whole body started to shake.
That one... is surprisingly Senju Makoto's painting notebook.
To be more precise, it is a picture album that Senju Makoto studied various uniforms in his spare time these past few months.
More importantly, in order to intuitively compare the beauty, every improved version of the uniform that Senju Makoto came up with always had Unohana Retsu as the model...
The last time, when Senju Makoto was about to formulate the final draft, the Hell Butterfly appeared to deliver an urgent message.
This made Senju Makoto, who was worried about Kuchiki and his son, urgently leaving, but he forgot to hide the picture album tightly, and casually put it in the drawer.
Now, Senju Makoto has been happily staying in this world for several days. It is obvious that Unohana Retsu came to this office to deal with team affairs and accidentally discovered this picture album.
At this moment, Senju Makoto felt inexplicably guilty and socially deprived of having been discovered by his teacher as a student, secretly taking the teacher's photo, and stammered.
"Old...teacher, please listen to my explanation..."
"good."
Uozhihua Lie said in a gentle and calm tone.
"Cheng can start to quibble now. If he can't satisfy me, Cheng won't be resentful towards the teacher, right?"
? ? ! !
Senju Makoto.
Immediately, Senju Makoto's brain started spinning crazily, and then he spoke sincerely.
"First of all, in my eyes, Teacher is undoubtedly the most beautiful woman in Soul Society..."
