Chapter 146

"Aizen is definitely plotting something."

Wu Lei muttered in a low voice.

As an old fan who had followed the series from the "Soul Society Arc" all the way to the second season,

he felt that many people's impression of Aizen was fixed on the immense strength he displayed at the end of the last season when he instantly killed three captain-level fighters.

However, they had forgotten that Aizen's terror in scheming was not a whit inferior to his combat power.

Beside him, Tan Songyun, who was born in the 90s but was always mistaken for a 00s kid due to her naturally baby-faced appearance, also nodded in agreement.

Thinking back to the plot in the last season where Aizen played the Gotei 13 like a fiddle, she still felt her scalp tingle.

Sure enough, as the time in the show progressed to late at night,

Kurosaki Ichigo and the others, in their heavily wounded state, drifted off to sleep one by one after receiving simple treatment for their injuries.

And just then, Inoue Orihime climbed in through the window with a silly smile.

"Ehehe, I'm here~"

The pretty face of Inoue Orihime, played by Da Mimi, was filled with her usual silly smile.

But in less than two seconds, that smile gradually turned into loneliness, and she whispered with deep sadness:

"Kurosaki-kun, I've come to say goodbye to you."

When Inoue Orihime finished this sentence, the scene shifted into a flashback.

It turned out that while the protagonist group was battling the Arrancar army during the day,

Ulquiorra had found Inoue Orihime and threatened her to accompany him to Hueco Mundo.

However, he allowed her to say goodbye to one person before leaving.

In the end, Inoue Orihime chose Kurosaki Ichigo.

"Luring the tiger away from the mountain?!"

Many viewers reacted one after another, shouting in a low voice with a start.

Recalling Inoue Orihime's near-heaven-defying healer ability,

if it weren't for her, the protagonist group might have been wiped out in the Soul Society Arc.

A guess surged in the hearts of many netizens—

Could it be that Aizen had taken a fancy to her ability?

The bright moonlight shone into the room through the curtains.

Inoue Orihime shed tears as she explained her reluctance to leave to the unconscious Kurosaki Ichigo.

To be honest, although her popularity didn't quite reach Rukia's level, she was still part of the protagonist trio.

The Inoue Orihime shaped by Xu Feng was definitely more likable than Haruno Sakura.

Heaven-defying healer skills, never holding the protagonist back or causing trouble, and... those huge "human hearts."

Of course, the most important point was that from the very beginning of the plot, the fact that she liked Kurosaki Ichigo was made crystal clear to the audience.

There would never be a situation of "calling for Naruto when in trouble, and Sasuke when not."

Therefore, in the popularity ranking of female characters in "Bleach," Inoue Orihime was still a presence that could enter the top three.

And the fans of Rukia and Inoue Orihime often tore each other apart on Weibo, in QQ groups, and in comment sections.

Both sides held their own opinions, claiming their idol was the true "main palace" for Kurosaki Ichigo.

But now, seeing her express her feelings to Kurosaki Ichigo while in tears,

even the fans of Rukia couldn't help but feel a twinge of sourness in their hearts.

Finally, Inoue Orihime wiped away the tears constantly welling up in her eyes and pretended to be strong:

"Sigh, if only I could live five times. If that were the case, I would want to be born in five different cities, eat different delicious foods each time, have different jobs each time, and each time..."

And as she said this, Inoue Orihime's eyes grew increasingly soft. She looked quietly at Kurosaki Ichigo's face, who was still in a coma with her tears still on his cheek, and said softly:

"... I would want to fall in love with the same person."

Hearing this sentence, countless viewers were completely overwhelmed.

They had come to watch the show for the blood-pumping battles, the imaginative worldview of "Bleach," and Aizen's pretentiousness.

They never expected to see such a moving romantic scene.

Especially when Inoue Orihime said that line, "If only I could live five times, and each time I would want to fall in love with the same person."

The defensive line in the hearts of many pure-hearted otaku was instantly shattered.

My god!

Who could withstand a girl like this!?

【Damn, I'm a middle-aged man in my forties and I actually shed tears. This confession line is legendary.】

【Everyone's attention was distracted by Xu Feng's acting and plot design, but they forgot that lines are his strong suit.】

【Thinking about it carefully, it's true. Those pretentious holy words of Aizen, Dio's magical and catchy battle cries, and now Inoue Orihime's confession... these lines are things you'll never forget once you've heard them.】

【Sorry Rukia, I'm defecting now. A girl like this completely hits my criteria for a partner.】

【Bullshit, it just hit your fetish, right?】

【I have to say, this line Xu Feng designed for Inoue Orihime is really great for gaining fans. "I want to live five times, and each time I want to fall in love with the same person"—which straight man can resist this?】

【Is this definitely the most likable role Da Mimi has played in the last two years?】

"At the end, do I end up with him?"

Da Mimi, who had the attributes of a workaholic, rarely returned to the company and was snuggling with Xu Feng to watch the show.

When she saw this part of the plot, even she was moved. She leaned against Xu Feng's chest and blinked those charming eyes of hers.

To this, Xu Feng couldn't give an answer for a moment.

In his previous life, Kubo gave an ending where Kurosaki Ichigo married Inoue Orihime, and Rukia married Abarai Renji.

Although it led to countless "Bleach" fans cursing loudly,

in Xu Feng's view, there wasn't actually any big problem with it.

After all, early on, it was already revealed quite clearly that Inoue Orihime liked Kurosaki Ichigo and Abarai Renji liked Rukia.

Moreover, Kurosaki Ichigo and Kuchiki Rukia never showed any romantic love from beginning to end; it felt more like camaraderie.

If he had to choose, he would also choose Inoue Orihime.

After all... he also likes them big.

Thinking of this, Xu Feng couldn't help but lower his head and start "working."

While working, Xu Feng couldn't help but feel troubled.

It seems there are really quite a few things that need to be changed in the "Decisive Battle of Karakura Town Arc."

Besides how both sides would unfold a hearty decisive battle and how to let Aizen have a more perfect exit, there was also the protagonist's romantic issue.

What a headache... ===== CHAPTER 148 =====
