The Seven Wonders of Karakura Town

Heyyyy! Ichigoooo!

Huh? What's up?

Do you know the seven wonders everyone's been talking about lately?

The seven wonders of the world?

That's old news! I'm talking about the seven wonders of Karakura Town!

There's been a streak of strange happenings all over town recently.

And one of those things happens right here on our school campus!

What? Really?

The rumor goes, a guitar starts playing on its own in the empty music room in the middle of the night.

A guitar? Don't urban legends usually go with a piano?

I'm not making these stories up. That's just how the rumor goes.

But I think it's a ghost of a student guitarist who passed away before he could perform on stage.

Sounds pretty generic, I'd say.

What are the other six?

Uh, the second is a will-o-wisp that appears in the empty lot at the edge of town.

The third is running footsteps being heard near corners of abandoned buildings. It's said to be a ghost crossing.

The fourth involves sightings of a ghost in pure white who flies around the entire town.

These stories are tamer than I thought.

Ghost rumors tend to come from people seeing or hearing something and mistaking it for ghosts.

Well, just keep listening, because these next ones are pretty scary.

The fifth is a mass outbreak of talking cats in parks and empty lots who are trying to control people!

The sixth is about mannequins wandering around the department store!

And the last is a jumping high school kid who has incredible legs and can leap through the skies!

That's quite the variety. Some of them sound kind of silly though.

No one's gotten hurt from them, right?

Uh, I think I heard that one or two of these ghosts really do come attacking people.

Hm. So someone's been harmed.

Hmm.

I walk around late at night pretty often, but I've yet to run into any of them.

Actually, I've never seen a ghost in my entire life, but...

...if I knew exactly where to look, I might be able to see at least one of them, right?

If you guys see one, make sure to tell me where you saw it!

These rumors might be caused by Hollows.

He said there've been attacks too.

I hope it's not Hollows.

I'll go on patrol tonight to see if I can find anything.

Then we'll come with you!

It's better to work as a group, in case anything happens.

It's gonna be late at night, so that'd actually help a lot.

Of course! It's not a problem for me!

So, which rumor are we going to start with?

Since we know exactly where it happens, we'll check the music room first.

Let's meet up at the school entrance when night time rolls around.

Alright. We'll see you then.

Sorry to keep you waiting! I was doing the dishes after dinner, and it took a little longer than I thought.

It's fine.

Well, let's check out the music room and get these mysteries solved.

The typical school rumor is usually about a piano that starts playing on its own in the middle of the night, but...

This rumor's a guitar. I wonder what kind of music it plays.

I hear it! It's the sound of a guitar! But...

This is quite...

If you're a ghost, I can Konso you and allow you to pass over, so stop that noise!

Wh-Who's there?!

That's our line! Huh? Aren't you Shuhei?

Why are you here in the world of the living? And in our school music room?

Uh, well, I was just practicing the guitar.

Practicing guitar?

So you're the cause of this rumor?

Can't you practice in the Seireitei?

That's what I was doing at first.

But then I got a bunch of complaints for the noise and got in trouble for it.

So that's why you're practicing here?

Are you even allowed to come over here that often without being on missions?

B-But it's a good thing! Now we know that this rumor isn't anything dangerous!

I guess so. Huh?

Oh, hey guys! How'd you know we were coming?

I think this is coincidence.

Rangiku?

Ikkaku? And Yumichika?
