Lin Nan left Stealth Force's team building and just walked out of the door when he bumped into Shihoin Yota who hadn't gone far yet.

"Why did you come out so quickly?" Yota also saw Lin Nan and asked in surprise.

"I still want to ask you. Why did she run away without saying a few words? Do you two have any grudges?"

"Grudges? No?..." Yota quickly rolled his eyes and shook his head. "Are we ready to talk about business now?"

As soon as he saw Yota's status, Lin Nan confirmed in his heart that what Senjumaru said was most likely true.

You're not telling the truth, are you? Watch me blow it up for you.

"Of course, such a short time is not enough to talk about business. Moreover, she seems to have misunderstood my identity." Lin Nan shook his head and said distressedly, "I don't know why, but she attacked me when I came up.

I can't sit still and wait for death, right? So I simply neutralized her sneak attack. She didn't take advantage, so she kept saying that I was the one you came for for revenge, and she wouldn't apologize or anything like that."

"Sneak attack?" Yota seemed to be very sensitive to this word and immediately became energetic.

Lin Nan told Senjumaru about stabbing him with spiritual pressure, which made Yota stunned for a moment.

"How did you resolve the effect of the spiritual pressure stab? This is incredible!"

Lin Nan waved his hand. "None of this is important. I just want to know now why she thought I was the thug you hired."

Yota frowned in distress, as if hesitating on how to answer.

"And she also emphasized it emphatically, saying [she won't apologize]." Lin Nan saw his hesitation and spoke provocatively.

Yota's pupils trembled. "Did she apologize for anything?"

"Yes. But in comparison, I believe your version more." Lin Nan nodded seriously, "This matter must be resolved immediately. After all, it involves fighting against the enemy. If the misunderstanding is resolved early, a few people may die less."

Yota hesitated for a long time, then hesitantly told the whole story.

Shutara Senjumaru loves researching novel props to assist in combat. Some time ago, in order to test a new combat uniform designed specifically for Stealth Force, she invited Yota to help many times.

Yota has always been a little scared of Senjumaru's character, so he declined several times. Unexpectedly, within a few days, Senjumaru himself came to the door.

Senjumaru, who has four skeletal hands, is very good at sliding doors and picking locks. She actually took advantage of Shihoin Sennichi to hold a captain meeting, easily bypassed the sight of Shihoin House's nursing home, and sneaked into Yota's room quietly.

At the moment when he was discovered, Senjumaru, without respecting martial ethics, first restrained Yota with spiritual pressure thrusts. Then he prepared to measure his body and make clothes on the spot - Senjumaru measures others, and they like to take off their clothes and measure them naked.

Although Yota didn't understand what the other party was trying to do, he was greatly shocked. At the critical moment when his clothes were about to be taken off, he fought against the dizziness and paralysis caused by the restrained spiritual pressure and used Shunpo to escape.

Lin Nan was speechless. I didn't expect Shutara Senjumaru to be so fierce. Even if the invitation failed, he would come directly to the door and peel off Four Great Noble Houses?

"Isn't this a bit too much? After all, you are still the young master of Shihoin, so you just let it go?" As an observer, he felt that what Senjumaru did was a bit too much.

Yota sighed and spoke softly.

Shutara Family is also under Shihoin House and is responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the God-given soldiers. Shihoin Sennichi has no daughters, so he treats Shutara Senjumaru as if he were his own daughter.

Yota grew up with Senjumaru, and was often bullied by Senjumaru. In the bloody battle with Empire of Light, the two of them also assisted Sennichi when they were young, using God-given weapons to set up barriers on the outside of the battlefield, and even had a close encounter with Yhwach.

After growing up, Senjumaru's research results were remarkable, which was very helpful to Gotei 13. Sennichi became more indulgent towards her, making Senjumaru's character more unruly and unruly.

So in the final analysis, what happened to Yota is more like a fight between brother and sister.

After hearing this, Lin Nan sighed and patted Yota on the shoulder sympathetically. Dad is a powerful captain of the first generation division, and there is a troublesome Senjumaru beside him. It is really not easy for Yota.

"In this case, I can't say much more." Lin Nan looked back at Stealth Force's team building and said, "It seems that I can only trouble you to explain the situation, so as not to delay the serious business due to misunderstanding."

Yota agreed, and the two returned to Shutara Senjumaru's team building again.

With the proof of Yota, Senjumaru finally took a closer look at Lin Nan with doubtful eyes.

"So you are really the student who fought against the man in black? It seems that I underestimated you. But I still want to hear how you evaded my spiritual pressure attack first. Because I really can't imagine how an ordinary student could do it."

Well, the attitude has changed a little, but not completely.

Lin Nan looked at Senjumaru coldly and spread his hands. "Is there a possibility that you underestimate me too much? Maybe I have more things that you can't think of."

Yota quickly smoothed things over. "It's all for Gotei 13, for Gotei 13. Let's get down to business first!"

Senjumaru looked at Yota with unconvinced eyes and snorted from his nose, "Okay!"

A strong impulse arose in Lin Nan's heart, and he wanted to teach Senjumaru a lesson on the spot. This girl's video is really...

But business was pressing at the moment, so he patiently began to describe what happened that night.

Yota listened attentively; while Senjumaru listened, he quickly took notes on the desk beside him with his bony hands behind him.

Yota's expression kept changing as Lin Nan narrated, sometimes tense and sometimes relaxed; on the other hand, Senjumaru's pair of phoenix eyes never showed any mood swings from beginning to end.

It wasn't until Lin Nan said that he and Ukitake joined forces to fight back, Ukitake was injured, and he won with five cuts, that Senjumaru's cold expression relaxed a little.

Lin Nan talked about rescuing Ukitake. To protect his own secrets, he ignored the improved version of Reishi-Gathering Pill and only said that he saved Ukitake's life with Hongyuan Haili's Reishi-Gathering Pill.

At this time, Senjumaru's expression changed, and he suddenly raised his hand to stop Lin Nan.

"Wait a minute." Her tone was decisive, her eyes were blazing, and she no longer had the usual coldness and arrogance.

"Since we want to share the war situation, there is no need for you to lie, right?"

Lin Nan looked at Senjumaru's eyes, and his heart moved.

Oops, seems to have been discovered?

"Lying? What does Shutara squad leader mean?" He said calmly, still speaking harshly.

"Take oral pills to replenish spiritual pressure in the body?" Shutara Senjumaru waved his skeletal hand behind his back, pulled the chair at hand and sat down, and changed back to his proud and indifferent expression, and said proudly:

"The person sitting in front of you is Soul Society, currently the most successful scientist. Do you think you can deceive me? Potions like the one you mentioned simply don't exist!

You fabricated lies in the field that I am good at, which makes me have to suspect that some of the previous links were also fabricated by you. I even have reason to suspect that you and that Ukitake colluded with the enemy to fabricate a battle that did not exist!"

Yota's eyes widened and he reminded in a low voice, "This accusation is a bit too serious. He is Captain-Commander's apprentice, how could he possibly act in collaboration with the enemy!"

Senjumaru glanced at Yota: "I just have reasonable doubts and hope that what I said is false. However, the medicine he said does not exist at all. It is impossible for him to provide evidence to prove the authenticity of what he said!"

Lin Nan leaned heavily on the chair. "Really? It seems that you like to deny things that you can't understand."

Senjumaru glanced over with phoenix eyes and chuckled softly, "I'm sorry. Ever since I became sensible, I have never encountered anything that I couldn't understand."

"What a coincidence, I like to surprise people the most, and I can prove it to you."

Lin Nan smiled evilly, "Yota, can you do me a favor? Go to the Spirit Arts Academy and call Ukitake over for me?"
