In the evening, in the dormitory of the fifth division.
After all the procedures for joining the team were completed, Shigure finally set off for Aizen's captain's office.
In the afternoon, he used calligraphy as an excuse and said that he hoped to receive guidance. Lan Ran agreed.
As Shigure walked along the corridor of the dormitory, he felt a mix of emotions.
He was looking forward to the signing reward, but he was also on guard against Aizen.
" System, bring up the mission."
Ding!" Current mission: No time limit. Host, please become the vice-captain of the fifth division and head to the captain's office to sign in. After signing in, you will receive the system reward!”
"Ding! Detected that the host has successfully become the vice-captain of the fifth division. Additional mission completed!”
"Please head to the captain's office as soon as possible to sign in. You will receive the system reward!”
Shigure's heart calmed down. The problem of the additional mission had been resolved.
Next, he just had to pretend to discuss calligraphy with Lan Zan while signing in.
Although the Xichuan family was not known for their " academic " background, they were still nobles.
As the eldest son of the family, Shigure Yagawa was forced to learn calligraphy for a very long time since he was young. In the three years after Shigure transmigrated, he had been influenced by it.
This was also the reason why he had the confidence to make up this lie.
It was very common for a noble child to study calligraphy in Nanling Court. It was not surprising at all, and naturally, it would not arouse too many doubts.
Moreover, Lan Ran's calligraphy attainments were indeed very high. Otherwise, he would not have been specially hired by the old guys in the Spiritual Academy to give a lecture.
When he walked to the captain's office, two team members happened to pass by and had to bow their heads."Vice-Captain Qi Chuan!"
Although Shigure's specific matters were still handed over to Hatsumori Momo, his position was still there.
Shigure nodded with a smile before knocking on the door.
Lan Ran's voice immediately came from inside.
" Is this Qi Chuan? Come in."
"Yes."
Shigure answered before pushing the door open.
In the room, Aizen was sitting on a flaxen futon. There was a pen and paper in front of him. Beside him was a gray futon, clearly prepared for Shigure.
Shigure stepped in and the system notification instantly popped up in his mind.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully arriving at the check-in location. The check-in is now in progress!”
"The check-in time is ten seconds. If you quit halfway, it will be considered a failed check-in!”
"Ten seconds."
Shigure's expression did not change at all when he heard this voice. He continued to advance steadily.
He knew that in front of Aizen, he had to remain calm. Any flaws could arouse his suspicion.
"Please sit." Lan Ran smiled gently.
"Yes."
Shigure walked to Aizen's side and sat down on the futon.
"Then, Qichuan, you said that you have always liked to study calligraphy. I wonder which school you are studying?”
Shigure's heart skipped a beat. He understood that Aoran's first step of probing had begun.
Hence, he replied unhurriedly,""I followed my family's tradition and learned the 'Houjing Gokudo Style' of Mister Houjing Gokudo Ryosuke.”
"Oh? Is that so?"
Hearing his answer, Aizen's expression did not change. She continued to smile."It seems that we are really fated. When I first started practicing calligraphy, I also started learning from the Houjing Jiliu. But now, it was back to the Three Traces.”
"Then, Qichuan, do you know the Three Traces?”
His glasses reflected the light, so his eyes couldn't be seen, but the corners of his mouth were still smiling gently.
It was just like an ordinary teacher teaching a student.
Shigure's eyes flashed upon hearing this.
"Three Traces" was a rarely seen word in Nanling Court. If it wasn't for the fact that he was extremely passionate about calligraphy, he wouldn't even know this word.
However, what Aizen did not expect was that…when Shigure learned about the sign-in mission last night, he had already gone to the Spiritual Academy's Hall of Records and memorized all the hidden knowledge that could be asked.
This was very difficult for someone who had never practiced calligraphy before. However, Shigure had experienced three years of calligraphy under the influence of the Xichuan family, so he easily completed it.
"The Three Marks refer to the three great calligraphers, Ono Daofeng, Fujiwara Sairi, and Fujiwara Yukinari. They were also the origins of calligraphy in Nanling Court. From there, many schools of calligraphy evolved. I didn't expect Captain Aizen to have reached such a high realm!”
Shigure smiled as his eyes flickered, showing his respect for Aizen.
At this moment, Lan Ran's gaze moved slightly. Then, she smiled and said,"I didn't expect you to be so good at your research, Qi Chuan…I'm surprised.”
