Chapter 3: After Its Retrieval

Ichigo! Were you able to find your Combat Pass?!

Huh? Kisuke? Why are you here?

Hi there, Rukia. It's just a coincidence. I just happened to run into him.

Your coincidences are hard to believe.

I got my Combat Pass back though. Sorry I had to cause you trouble.

It's fine. As long as you got it back, that's what matters.

I'm surprised you found it though. Rather impressive, I should say.

Kisuke helped me out there.

Don't tell me he tried to sell you one of his shady inventions again.

Hey, now. That's not very nice.

It's just fact.

This dog... Is it just me or does he have something against you, Kisuke?

Or maybe he smells the greedy salesman in you.

You're being a bit mean, don't you think?

*Hollow!* *Hollow!*

This thing is going off a lot today.

Ichigo, don't just stand there. We need to go defeat those Hollows.

Let's do what we gotta do! I wanna get it done and go home already!

Wait, Ichigo! Come help the shop before you go home!

............

Well, it seems I'm being ignored.

Damn... I can never get used to these Hollows that pop out of nowhere.

But you do seem to be getting the hang of being Substitute Soul Reaper. For that, I commend you.

By the way, Ichigo.

Huh?

Looks like the dog stole your Combat Pass again.

Whaaaat?!

What an idiot. I take back the praise.

Oh, would you like to use the item again? Of course, I'll have to charge you twice the labor.

Why did this have to happen to me?

Truly idiotic.
