Chapter 2: Izuru's Calamity

We shall not leave a single speck of dust in the Seireitei. That is our goal as members of the year end cleaning crew!

The first team will sweep the roads. The second team will...

He's really into this. Who knew someone could be so motivated to clean. I guess the personality comes from his owner.

Speaking of which, I was in the middle of cleaning behind the barracks.

Did you want to go back to it?

I shouldn't. This squad has no captain, not to mention the fact that a lot of members haven't even shown up. I can't leave.

You have nothing to worry about! As the supervisor here, I will make sure we fulfill our duties!

It's natural that you care about the cleanliness of your own barracks. It also makes sense that you work on an area you're familiar with.

Hmm, all right. I'll leave it to you then.

Now, let's start with the scrubbing of the outer walls.

Mr. Kiraaaaa!!!

Who?!

Mr. Kira, sir. I must sincerely apologize for all the trouble I caused you the other day!

Wow, what happened to you? Your personality's completely changed. What are you doing here anyway?

I'm here to help you clean, if you will allow me to, as a way to make amends.

Uh, don't worry. If you want to help out, you should go see what Shuhei's-

Feh! Who cares about him?!

You should care! Shuhei's your master!

Squad 9 has no captain right now, which I know is tough. And with the year-end Seireitei Bulletin wrapping up, the editorial department's a chaotic mess.

I think you should go back to your squad and do your job rather than try to help me here.

Are you saying I have no need to atone for my sins? Mr. Kira, you are too kind.

But that will not satisfy my urge!

I said nothing of that sort.

Tell me, what can I do for you? Throw away the trash, perhaps? Or wipe down the floors?

It'd be nice if you would listen to me, actually.

Oh, fine. All right.

I'll let you clean this area.

Yessir! Leave it to me!

What's going on, Izuru? Is something wrong?

Kazeshini came barging into our barracks and started cleaning for me, so I'm here to help with Squad 9's clean up instead.

Huh?

I said Kazeshini is cleaning Squad 3's barracks instead of Squad 9's, so I'm here to-

That bastard! I was wondering where he went. What's he doing kissing up to others?

Thanks for letting me know! I'll go get him! Squad 3 barracks, right?!

It defeats the purpose if you go too, Shuhei! Just leave the cleaning to-

What was that sound?

It was from Squad 3.

Ugh, I'm already feeling tired.
