Bleach : Begins with a Contract with the Departed Souls of the Uchiha Chapter 57: Yoruichi's Curiosity

"Fugaku, go and report to Vice-Captain Ōmaeda for your induction."

"Mikoto, co with . I'll take you to see Yoruichi. She should still be at the barracks."

Kenma walked out of the room, followed by the Fugaku couple.

In the Squad 2 barracks, the captain's and vice-captain's offices were close to each other.

The group of three arrived at the vice-captain's door. Kenma gave Fugaku so instructions, and after watching him go in, he took Uchiha Mikoto to the captain's office.

Before they even entered the captain's room, Yoruichi's rather cheerful, hearty laughter, as well as the shy cries of the young Hachi girl, could be faintly heard from outside.

The closer Kenma got, the clearer he could hear.

"Lady Yoruichi, please stop teasing ."

"Suì-Fēng, isn't this nice? You're very cute like this."

"Whoa~ Lady Yoruichi is calling cute! What bliss... No, wait, Lady Yoruichi, I am a cold and ruthless mber of the Punishnt Force! Please don't use words like 'cute' to describe ."

"Hehe, you're even cuter when you're trying to act calm, Suì-Fēng. I give you full marks."

"..."

Outside the door, Kenma listened to the noise coming from inside and sighed in his heart.

'It must be Yoruichi teasing Suì-Fēng again.'

'He didn't know where she got all this energy to play.'

He turned to look at Uchiha Mikoto, who was waiting respectfully by his side, and said slowly, "As you can see now, Yoruichi has this boisterous personality. It's a bit of a hardship for you to work by her side. If you encounter any pranks from her, I hope you won't take it to heart."

"I would not dare."

Mikoto bowed her head deeply.

As a ninja, her mission ca first.

Kenma's order was only for her to serve this mistress, not to risk her life on a combat mission.

For such a safe and easy job, how could Mikoto have any objections?

Even if this mistress's personality was a bit playful, she had her own ways of dealing with it.

Seeing her calm expression, Kenma knew she was the type with a stable and patient nature. She was just right for being by Yoruichi's side, and his heart was much more at ease.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door, making a crisp sound to remind Yoruichi and the others inside to be more restrained.

"Yoruichi, I'm coming in."

"It's Kenma. Wait a mont."

A flurry of hurried sounds ca from inside, which quickly stopped.

Yoruichi's voice ca again.

"It's fine now. Co in."

Kenma pushed open the door and his gaze quickly swept the interior. There was nothing out of the ordinary.

Yoruichi's expression was relaxed, and she sat casually on the chair, her captain's haori casually draped over the back. She was wearing black training clothes with no sleeves, revealing the brown skin of her arms.

In front of Yoruichi, Suì-Fēng, also in training clothes, was kneeling properly, her expression solemn and full of seriousness, but there was still a lingering blush on her face.

Kenma glanced around. There were only the two of them in the room, making it seem quite spacious.

Seeing that it was Kenma, a mischievous smile appeared on Yoruichi's face. Just as she was about to say sothing, she saw Uchiha Mikoto behind him.

"How rare. For soone with such a dull personality, to have such a beauty by your side."

"Tell , where did you abduct her from? I'll go and try my luck another day."

After Kenma sat down cross-legged on the side, he heard Yoruichi's words and frowned slightly.

"What do you an, 'abduct'? You make sound like I'm not a good person."

"Also, you are, for the ti being, the head of the Shihoin clan. Mind your image."

Yoruichi raised an eyebrow and chuckled. "Heh, you, still pretending to be a good person in front of ?"

Faced with Yoruichi's teasing, Kenma simply ignored it.

He pointed to Mikoto and introduced her, "This is Uchiha Mikoto, a clansman of Shisui. I saw that you don't have a proper person by your side, so I brought her over. She will stay by your side from now on. How about it?"

"Uchiha..."

Yoruichi blinked, a look of curiosity on her face.

Her gaze fell on Kenma, and she imdiately understood.

"Kenma, I rember you ntioning that you gave the fourth seat of the squad to soone nad Uchiha Fugaku, also a clansman of Shisui."

"That's right."

Yoruichi's golden eyes looked at the formally seated Mikoto.

"What is your relationship to Uchiha Fugaku?"

Seeing Kenma nod slightly, Mikoto bowed her head deeply and said, "Fugaku is my husband."

"I see."

Yoruichi smiled.

Although she didn't manage much, she had heard so things about the family and the squad.

Especially about what was happening around this fiancé of hers.

First Shisui, then Yashiro and the others, and today, Fugaku and Mikoto.

And from her observation, these people all had excellent spiritual pressure and were even more outstanding in their skills, even better than so of the seated officers in the squad.

These Uchiha who had suddenly appeared by Kenma's side seed very mysterious.

How could Yoruichi not be curious?

"Since Kenma recomnded her, then she can stay."

She had thought this fiancé of hers was a boring and dull person, but now it seed he had quite a few secrets of his own.

As for Kenma's purpose in sending this person to her side, Yoruichi could guess with her little finger.

It was nothing more than a little trick of surveillance in the na of service.

However, for Kenma to plant a spy so brazenly, such an open move was sowhat beyond Yoruichi's expectations.

Kenma's behavior even gave her a sense of uprightness.

Since Kenma was being so open about it, she wasn't afraid either.

She was upright and not afraid of Kenma knowing anything.

On the contrary, the secrets of these Uchiha and her husband interested her more.

This was a good opportunity to find a breakthrough with this woman.

"Thank you for your permission, Lady Yoruichi."

Mikoto quickly stepped into the role of an attendant, coming to Yoruichi's side, ready to await her orders.

Just then, the sound of sowhat heavy footsteps ca from outside.

"Captain, I've brought the newly appointed fourth seat to see you."

It was Ōmaeda Marechiyo's voice.

After getting Yoruichi's approval, Marechiyo pushed open the door and saw Kenma in the room.

"Lord Kenma is here too. Today is the day of Uchiha's induction as fourth seat. Since you are here, Lord Kenma, it's a good ti to witness this mont together."

Marechiyo smiled, then stepped aside to let Uchiha Fugaku, who was behind him, walk to the center of the room.

According to custom, a newly appointed seated officer had to et the captain. So he had brought Uchiha Fugaku over.

Yoruichi observed Uchiha Fugaku before her. His brow was raised high, making his eyes look a bit fierce. His lips were tightly pursed, and he had a serious and solemn expression.

She glanced at Mikoto at her side. 'So this is Mikoto's husband.'

Yoruichi then looked at Kenma. Seeing that he still had a straight face, she couldn't help but wonder.

"It seems you are the sa type of person as Kenma, always with a straight face. Don't you get tired of it?"

"When it cos to work, one must be serious," Kenma said.

It was better than so people's frivolous and playful attitude.

'Yes, he was referring to Yoruichi.'

Yoruichi nodded at Uchiha Fugaku before her and said, "You are the person Kenma recomnded. I believe you have sufficient talent and vigilance."

"If that's the case, you will take the position of the fourth seat of Squad 2, and you will also be in charge of the Detention Unit. Is that alright?"

Fugaku bowed deeply. "I will not betray your trust, my lord."

As for which "lord" he was referring to, Yoruichi didn't think she needed to ask.

"Alright."

After she had t him, Uchiha Fugaku's induction was official.

She waved her hand at Ōmaeda Marechiyo and Uchiha Fugaku, dismissing them. Only then did she say to Kenma, "You brought him into the squad to help you with those squad duties, didn't you? Such a thorough arrangent is in line with your character."

Kenma nodded. "Yes. We will be busy from now on and will be away from the squad for a long ti. We need to arrange for manpower in advance."

Hearing this, a hint of lancholy flashed in Yoruichi's heart.

"That's right."

"After all, we are getting married..."
