こ-き-よ

Kon tapped on his microphone a few times. "So... today we're going to discuss BG9. I think the guy is ultra creepy. I mean, what guy shoots stuff out like tentacles anyways."

"Hmm..." Orihime peeked in through the door. "But wait... isn't he robot?"

"Orihime-chan!" The stuffed animal suddenly waved his hands at her, but then paused realizing what she had said. "What do you mean?"

"He's got these things that shoot out, and its dark under that mask." The orange haired female slipped in and sat at the table at one of those seats. Suddenly Uryu popped up from nowhere.

"I don't think he's a robot."

"But he said his sensors didn't detect Soifon." Kon protested the Quincy's comment. He then pointed a paw at the blue haired teen. "Wait! Traitor!"

"If what he said was sensors then why didn't Soifon react act refer to him as a robot? Why didn't she say something about how the sensors couldn't pick her up."

"Because maybe she wanted to brag." Kon grumbled. "I didn't invite you. Go help your father with his show."

"My father and I do not speak."

Orihime spoke then. "So... who do you think BG9 is?"

"I believe it is Ichimaru Gin."

"He's dead moron." Kon continued to grumble.

"It has never been confirmed."

The orange haired female placed a finger on her mouth. "Thing is I don't think there is anything pointing to him being BG9."

"Ahh..." Uryu pushed up his glasses. "But there is."

"And what pray tell would that be." Kon glared at the other male.

"What do you get when you look at a keyboard with hirigana on it?"

"Say what?" The modsol shook his head.

"Hold on... I believe there is a keyboard under here." Orihime went under the table.

The stuffed lion blinked a couple of time. "Why do we have a keyboard?"

"So that you can run the system of course." Uryu shook his head. "Sheesh... how could you not know there is a computer system that runs this along with a sound system?"

"That's because..." Kon frowned.

Orihime placed the keyboard on the table. "Oh! Wow! The hiragana match up with the letters."

"What do you mean?" The modsol leaned over.

"See..." The female pointed at the different keys. The letter B has the hirigana "ko", the letter G has the hiragana "ki" and the number nine has the hirigana "yo"."

"Oh come on. Ko-ki-yo means nothing."

"Ah, but you forget that the hirigana for "ki" and "yo" can be combined to make "kyo". What does kokyo mean."

"It means birthplace." Kon waved his paw.

"How about kyoko?"

"It means fabrication."

"Or..." Orihime's face twisted up in excitement. "it means big mouth!"

The stuffed animal winced. "Yeah... that does describe Ichimaru Gin. But isn't it a bit odd, his weapon?"

"Well... it was never confirmed that his blade only went straight. Remember that he said it could break up into small particles? So it is logical that he could form a gun by doing this. It explains why he doesn't use a bow either."

"What do you mean?" The female teen tilted her head.

"Aizen pulled off his right arm, so logically speaking he is his right arm. That's why when the right side opens up he seems to be a robot."

"Um... sure."

"And I'm thus not the only traitor among the Quincies."

"That's amazing Uryu!"

"Yeah... no, it isn't."

Note – My brother messed with the hirigana quite a bit before chapter 549 because I remembered something I learned from Detective Conan about Japanese keyboards. Then the chapter came out and he was like, "See! See! I told you Gin is alive! Not only did I tell you he was alive I told you he would be using his zampaktuo as his arm and it will be a tribute to Zombie Powder. We'll see him of course wielding a grappling gun." So... well, if it isn't Gin he's going to be disappointed if you can't tell already. And yes, he told me that many months ago... including the fact Gin will be using a sword like that character from Zombie Powder.
