Chapter 631 Unscrupulous Bosses Will Be Hanged on Streetlights

Yes, from the moment Kurosaki Isshin invited her, Ikuko had already foreseen the current outcome.

No, it should be said that it is not foresight, but experience.

As for whether Kurosaki Isshin will have a miserable life... I'm sorry, all I can say is that this is a cruel world.

"Okay, this is three days' worth of medicine. Just remember to wear more clothes as it gets cold." Yu Zi packed the medicine and handed it to the patient.

"Thank you, Dr. Jiguo."

"You're welcome, take care."

Masaki Kurosaki blinked: "Dr. Tsugikuni?"

"Yes, my surname is Tsugikuni, Tsugikuni Yuko," Yuko explained with a smile. "What? Didn't I introduce myself?"

"..."

Masaki Kurosaki thought about it carefully, and there really wasn't one!

She started calling her Yuko because she heard Isshin and Urahara call her that.

Masaki Kurosaki didn't pay much attention to this. Seeing another patient sitting down in front of Ikuko, she didn't want to disturb Ikuko. Just as she was about to say goodbye, Ikuko started chatting with Masaki while treating the patient.

"By the way, doesn't Masaki have to go to class today?"

"Yeah, because summer vacation is coming soon."

"Oh? Is it already summer vacation?"

As Kurosaki Masaki watched Yuuko chat with her while expertly writing out a prescription, she couldn't help but remind her, "Yuuko, shouldn't you focus on treating people?"

"It's alright, it's just a minor illness like a cold. Mr. Kurosaki can handle it." Yuuko looked up at the dejected Kurosaki Isshin beside her. "You agree, right, Mr. Kurosaki?"

"Ah..." Kurosaki Isshin nodded subconsciously, then realized, "Don't make it sound like my medical skills are worse than yours!"

Yuko paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "Isn't that right?"

"..."

It's a cruel fact.

Kurosaki sat dejectedly on a nearby bench, with no one to comfort him.

The only person who can comfort him is currently having a good chat with Yuko.

Masaki, I'm here to see a doctor, you know!

this is not good.

Masaki Kurosaki was still chatting with Ikuko: "Ikuko, you have so many patients here. Won't you be able to take care of them all?"

"It's alright, most of them are just minor illnesses, and I can take care of them all." Rather, experiencing this kind of fulfilling life occasionally is actually quite enjoyable.

“I see…” Kurosaki Masaki nodded slightly.

"If you think I'm too busy, would you like to come and help me during the summer vacation?" Yuko suddenly asked, looking up at Kurosaki Masaki. "I'll offer you the highest salary."

Before Masaki Kurosaki could respond, Isshin Kurosaki, who had been sitting dejectedly to the side, finally snapped out of it and said indignantly, "How could this happen! Masaki should have come to help me during summer vacation."

Yuko looked puzzled: "But you don't have any patients in your shop at all, do you?"

"Let alone one person, even half a person could handle it."

Kurosaki Isshin felt as if an arrow had pierced his heart.

That's outrageous! Even if it's true, it's still too much!

It's like rubbing salt into a wound.

"Okay, let me help Yuko!" After having a best friend, Kurosaki Masaki completely forgot about her lover's feelings, rolled up her sleeves, and nodded in agreement with a look of great enthusiasm.

Kurosaki Isshin had completely given up and lay blankly on the bench staring at the ceiling.

Why did I want to invite the other person in the first place?

I really want to go back and kick myself to death.

"Ah, sorry, Isshin." At this moment, Masaki Kurosaki seemed to suddenly remember someone she had forgotten, and turned around to look at Isshin Kurosaki apologetically.

Just when Kurosaki thought the other woman was about to change her mind, she said, "Anyway, no one comes to your clinic, so let me help out at Yuuko's shop this time."

"..."

Kurosaki Isshin's eyes, which had been slightly brightening, dimmed completely.

Ignoring her lover's sadness, Masaki Kurosaki clenched her fist at Ikuko with great enthusiasm: "Let me get to work now!"

"Oh~ I love employees as proactive as you." After finishing her examination, Yuko went back to the inner room, took out a white coat, and handed it to Kurosaki Masaki. "Put this on first, it's your uniform."

"Masaki only needs to greet patients for me, such as arranging chairs, taking out paper cups and providing warm water, etc."

"Understood! Dr. Yuko!" Masaki Kurosaki immediately got into the zone and changed her clothes in the blink of an eye.

what! ! !

Masaki's nurse outfit is so cute!

but……

This was originally prepared for him!!!

He had already tailored a nurse's uniform for Masaki... Wait! Why does this nurse's uniform fit Masaki so well?

Is it...

Kurosaki Isshin looked at Ikuko in disbelief.

Yuko seemed to understand the confusion in Kurosaki Isshin's eyes. A playful smile appeared on her lips as she looked at Kurosaki Isshin with a teasing expression. And where Kurosaki Masaki couldn't see, she opened her mouth and said silently.

"That's right, this is what I've been planning for a long time~"

Kurosaki Isshin felt a wave of heat rush straight to his brain.

A witch! She really is a witch!

What a gentle image! It's all a facade, this woman!

Masaki Kurosaki was very skilled at receiving patients; it was impossible to tell that this was her first time helping out. She must have had experience helping out at Kurosaki Clinic before.

"Please sit here... Oh no, there aren't enough seats."

As Kurosaki Isshin sensed something was wrong, Kurosaki Masaki came up to him. "Isshin, could you please move aside? This old lady has nowhere to sit."

"……I see."

Kurosaki Isshin stood up with his head down and swayed as he moved away.

Masaki Kurosaki suddenly called out, "Oh, right."

Kurosaki Isshin turned around and looked back with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"If it's inconvenient for you, you can go back now."

"..."

You think he's in your way, right?! You must be right!!!

Harboring resentment towards Ikuko, Kurosaki staggered away from the Butterfly Mansion.

Yu Zi narrowed her eyes; this couple was really quite amusing.

It seems like the days ahead won't be boring anymore.

……

During the following summer vacation, Masaki Kurosaki would go to the Butterfly Mansion to help out every day.

Not only his popularity, but even the person he liked was taken away by Yuuko, which made Kurosaki Isshin extremely regretful. He wished he could immediately travel back in time and beat up his past self.

Kurosaki Clinic has very few patients; it mainly consists of regular clients or patients who only go there when Ikuko's clinic is too crowded.

Therefore, Kurosaki Isshin often comes here in the afternoon.

It wasn't to help, but mainly because I was worried that Masaki's naive personality would be completely manipulated by someone.

but……

“Since you’re already here, I’ll leave this team to you.” Yuko tossed a white coat to Kurosaki Isshin and pointed to the chair next to him. “I’ve checked them, and none of them have serious illnesses.”

"However, to take into account the patient's wishes, I will still entrust you with a thorough examination and treatment."

"Everyone heard it!"

"And besides, you didn't even watch it!"

Kurosaki Isshin originally intended to make that comment, but after checking the entire line, he was surprised to find that Ikuko was absolutely right.

He instinctively turned his head to ask how the other person knew.

Yuko noticed his expression and spoke up, "If you're asking about wages, then no, I don't have any."

"It's not about asking for wages!" Kurosaki Isshin instinctively retorted, then realized, "Eh?! You don't have any?!"

"Of course, I don't have any extra money to give you."

"Huh?! This is illegal..."

Yu Zi blinked and said innocently, "Then you should go back. Don't get in the way here."

Kurosaki Isshin felt his breath catch in his throat, his whole body trembled for a moment, and finally he lowered his head helplessly: "...I'm sorry."

"If you understand, then keep up the good work."

"……Yes."

Seeing Kurosaki Isshin's dejected expression, the patient in front of him lectured him with the air of someone who had been through it all: "You're the doctor from that run-down clinic next door, aren't you?"

"A run-down... dilapidated clinic..."

The renovations are practically the same, okay?!

Don't think I won't beat you up just because you're old!

If you calculate it, I'm much older than you!

Just as Kurosaki was inwardly complaining, the old woman in front of him said again, "Dr. Yuko's medical skills are quite superb; she can diagnose a patient's condition with just one glance."

"This is a level of medical skill that even doctors in big hospitals cannot achieve."

"In my opinion, it would be worth paying a high tuition fee to be able to study under Dr. Yuko."

Kurosaki Isshin's eye twitched: "So I have to pay her back, right?"

Tell me, old woman, are you a shill hired by that witch?

“That’s right. In my opinion, it’s worth spending hundreds of thousands of dollars a month to learn from Dr. Yu Zi.”

Kurosaki Isshin suppressed the urge to retort and asked, "Grandma, are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

"No."

"Huh? Then what are you doing here?"

"Actually, I was hoping that Dr. Yuko would let my grandson do an internship here for two... a month." As she said this, the old woman picked up a box from beside her feet and opened it, revealing that it was full of large sums of money.

It dazzled Kurosaki Isshin's eyes.

Yuko noticed the commotion and responded simply, "Ah, Granny Dengli, I said I don't take on apprentices, I'm sorry."

Grandma Dengli sighed and dejectedly packed away the box.

"It's a shill! It's definitely a shill!" Kurosaki Isshin suddenly stood up.

He didn't believe that anyone could see through someone's illness at a glance.

Any offers to pay for a job are definitely fake!

That box of money is enough to cover several months of his income!

After seeing the patient, Masaki Kurosaki noticed the commotion and shook her head, saying, "No, Isshin, Yuuko's medical skills are really amazing."

"Often, I can tell the cause of someone's illness just by looking at them before I even have a proper examination."

"Absolutely amazing!"

“Even the president of a major hospital visited me before, inviting Yu Zi to join.”

Masaki Kurosaki's tone was full of admiration.

Kurosaki Isshin pointed shakily at himself, about to speak.

Masaki Kurosaki laughed as she stated the harsh truth: "Isshin is no match for you. He'll be swiftly and decisively defeated by Ikuko."

Kurosaki Isshin's face turned ashen, as if he were about to pass away at any moment.

and many more!

Big hospitals?

Invitation to join?!

Kurosaki Isshin's face lit up with joy: "So, is Yuuko moving out?"

Yuko glanced at her sideways: "Hmm? Why would you think that?"

"Because you were invited by a major hospital, weren't you?" Kurosaki Isshin suddenly sensed something was wrong.

"Ah, although I run this clinic because I have nothing else to do, I definitely can't do work for someone like I would in a regular job," Yuko replied casually. "Besides, didn't you invite me, Mr. Kurosaki?"

"So I definitely can't leave like this."

Please leave now!

He knows he was wrong!

……

"Oh right, this is for you."

Just when Kurosaki was feeling utterly hopeless, Ikuko suddenly handed him two lottery tickets from her drawer.

"What is this?" Kurosaki Masaki took it with a blank expression.

Kurosaki Isshin leaned closer: "A seven-day, six-night trip to Okinawa for two..."

Yu Zi said calmly, "I won this in a lottery before, but as you can see, I can't leave here, so I'm giving it to you."

A nearby patient recognized it: "Ah! That's worth 500,000 yen, with all food, lodging, and airfare included, plus special events..."

Kurosaki Isshin was so shocked his jaw dropped: "Five hundred thousand?!"

He looked at Yuko with a blank expression: "Give, give it to us?"

Yuko looked confused: "Don't you want to go?"

Kurosaki Isshin's expression changed instantly, and he seriously put away the lottery ticket: "Ikuko-nee, from now on, you are at my beck and call."

What, what is it?

Calling her a witch is clearly an insult to Yuko-nee.

This is clearly an angel, okay?!

Yuko looked disgusted: "No way, I don't have a younger brother as old as you."

"Oh? But I heard you're older than me..."

Before Kurosaki Isshin could finish speaking, Ikuko was enveloped in a chill.

"Whose story did you hear from?"

“…Unohana-senpai.”

Yuko, clutching her forehead, gritted her teeth: "Hana-nee-san!"

What suspicious rumors have you been spreading all these years?!

"What a terrifying aura." Kurosaki Isshin was so frightened by the resentment emanating from her that he took several steps back.

As expected of the white-haired witch of Soul Society who managed to escape from the attacks of several captains and even the Bankai of the Captain-Commander.

His true strength is probably among the top of the captains... no, it should be said that he is second only to the captain-in-chief.

There are even rumors that she hasn't mastered Bankai yet, but she forced the Captain-Commander to use Bankai to fight her using only Shikai.

There has always been a rumor in Seireitei that the White-Haired Witch will return to take revenge after mastering Bankai.

Fortunately, he didn't say what was on his mind, otherwise Yu Zi would have exploded.

Masaki Kurosaki was a little embarrassed to accept it: "But this is such a valuable thing..."

Yu Zi smiled and said, "It's okay, just consider it a reward for your help over the past two months. I don't want to be a heartless businessman that people despise."

"The wages..."

"Masaki, if the boss doesn't pay you, you'll be hung on a street lamp, you know. You don't want to wake up the next morning to find me hanging on a street lamp, do you?"

"..."
