Everyone was thinking it, Renji just said it. That did not sway Shuuhei's opinion on the matter, though. Ukitake was far more skeptical of Central 46, more so than Yamamoto ever was. Surely as long as this incident stayed as isolated as possible, they could keep some sense of control over it. That was what he hoped, anyway.

He frowned slightly at that before giving a small smile. "Guess that hard head of yours is finally rubbing off on him." Rikichi was really a sweet kid, but it was hard to see him as anything but a kid in that sense. He had been Renji's shadow for years, and though he had considerably improved, he still seemed like Renji: The Mini Version. Or something like that.

Finally down to business, Shuuhei leaned forward, clasping his hands together as he rested his elbows on the desk. He shook is head silently at first, looking pensive. For better or for worse, Hitsugaya had chosen silence. Surely it would save him from saying anything incriminating, but it made him look just as guilty at the same time if he was ceasing to dispel or refuse any claims. It was a sticky situation.

"A member from my Division heard calls for help." Most likely Gin - a man who would never call for help - but Shuuhei knew Renji could draw those conclusions himself. "When he ran to investigate, he found Hitsugaya-taichou with a full Hollow mask on his face and Hyourinmaru in Ichimaru's gut." Not to say he wouldn't have minded trading places, at least for a few seconds. (Who in Seireitei didn't want to stab Gin?)
