Chapter 25: The Celebration

Uncle Yile handed me the noodles: "Your noodles are ready." ”

I took the noodles and ate them. Uncle and Naruto chatted.

After eating the noodles, I left.

Uncle Yile: "Walk slowly." ”

Me: "I'll see you tomorrow." ”

"Where are you going now?" I said, thinking about where to go next.

"Whatever, it's up to God's will. "I walked aimlessly down the street.

"Sugar gourd...... Selling sugar gourds ......"

"Freshly baked...... Sell it cheaply......"

"Finest fabric...... Come and see......"

“……”

Walking on the prosperous streets, the rain has a happiness from the heart.

When passing a street corner, an old man's voice came from behind: "Hokage-sama." ”

I looked back and saw five or six people saluting me, all dressed in the same attire.

"You are ......"

"My name is Thousand Hands Difficult Song, and I am the patriarch of the Thousand Hands Clan. The old man introduced himself.

"Thousand hands ......" I improved my concentration.

"I haven't come to see him since Hokage-sama succeeded him, but I didn't expect to meet here a few days ago. ”

"You are an elder, and I should come to see you. ”

"I can't afford it. ”

"If it's okay, I won't bother. I turned and left.

"It's clear that we disturbed Hokage-sama, but Hokage-sama said that he disturbed us...... Maybe...... It's time......" thought to the old man.

As I walked, I passed by a shop, and before I got closer, I smelled a pungent fragrance.

"Is this shop ......?"

"I haven't been here for many years, so I'm a little nostalgic. ”

I stopped in front of the shop.

"Hello, how can I help you?" said the kid about my age.

"!" I saw that the girl who came out was a very beautiful girl, very different from the little berry sister in my image.

"It's been a long time, Sister Berry. I said hello.

"Little Berry......" Berry carefully recalled the person who would call her that, "Hmm...... You are the rain ......" Berry immediately realized that he had said something wrong, and immediately saluted, "...... I've seen Hokage-sama. ”

"Don't be so polite. ”

"Is there anything wrong with you?"

"You might as well call me Rain. ”

"You're the Hokage, how can I call you by your name. ”

That's right, there is a distance between us, that's why everyone doesn't want to be a shadow, once you become a shadow, even if it's a family member or friend who is close to you, there will be an invisible barrier called "identity" between you.

"Then change 'you' to 'you', or I'll be miserable. ”

Instead of answering, she smiled at me, and I responded with a smile.

"Come in and sit. ”

"I'm here to buy a cake, so I'm not going in. ”

"If you did come to buy the cake, why did you stand outside with a nostalgic look?" asked Berry.

"I can't tell you, so let's go in. ”

After entering, Aunt Xunzi held the freshly baked meat floss bread, "Hokage-sama, forgive me for not being able to welcome you far away. ”

"Aunt Xunzi doesn't have to be polite. ”

"I'll put the cake away first. "Aunt Xunzi put the cake in the glass case.

"Is Aida-sensei at school?" I asked.

"It's Saturday and the school is closed. Berry replied, "He's upstairs, do you want to see him?"

"I won't disturb him at work. ”

"He wasn't working, and the day before yesterday he took students out of school, but in order to protect the students, he fell into the river and is still lying in bed. ”

Berry said as he walked to Mr. Aida's room, and I followed.

Berry opened the door, and I saw Aida-sensei lying on the bed sleeping soundly outside the door, so I closed the door and left.

"Have you seen Xiaoxue?"

"Xiaoxue? ”

"Then I won't disturb your work. "When I was leaving, Aunt Xunzi packed a few pieces of bread and handed it to me.

"No need. I quickly refused.

"Just take it. Berry snatched the bag, shoved it into my hand, and said with a smile, "Goodbye!"

"Sister Berry is still a little overbearing as before......" I thought to myself.

After leaving, he looked at the bag in his hand, "Let's go home and put the bag away first, and then go shopping." ”

(!————)

On the way home, I met Morino Hiki.

Ibiki and his entourage saluted: "Hokage-sama." ”

I nervously asked, "Ibhi, what's going on in the prison?"

Ibhi: "It's not a big deal, but I'd like to ask Hokage-sama to take a look." ”

After Ibiki finished speaking, he handed me a stack of report sheets, and I put the bag on the ground, and when I took it, I looked at it very carefully.

Since it was on the street, the shopkeepers on the side of the road saw this and thought that something big had happened, and they talked about it.

"Hokage-sama's expression is so serious......"

"Isn't there something serious......

"I don't think anyone will get out of prison......"

“……”

“……”

I asked, "...... Is there a list of personnel?"

Ibihi: "Yes. Then he motioned for his subordinates to hand over the list.

I turned and left, "Come to the office." ”

Ibhi: "Yes. "As I was leaving, Ibiki took the bag I had forgotten to take.

When I arrived at the office, I put aside the report sheet and the list of people and started writing the official document.

Actually, there is no big problem: there are cracks in the walls of the prison, after all, it has been built for more than 40 years, although it can be repaired, but I still ordered to rebuild; due to the financial problems of the village, some personnel are not paid, of course I have to order to make up for it; Konoha Village is holding many vicious criminals from the country of fire, and the guards are somewhat insufficient, Ibiki applied to the village for additional manpower, in order to solve this problem, I read the information of all the criminals for more than an hour, and then ordered, some people who can be executed are sentenced to death, but Ibiki objected, because this is against the village's law, and changing the law needs to be reviewed by the high-levelIf there are many revisions, a referendum will be required for the whole village, so I will not deal with this issue for the time being; the issue of posts is a more serious issue, because there is a strong contrast between the time and position of some personnel, and there is some dissatisfaction, so I ordered the re-selection of the positions of prison personnel, but I am not clear about their merits and demerits, so I let Ibiki decide for himself......

……

After processing, it was 8:43 p.m.

"Alas!" I sighed, looking at the clock, and set out on my way home.

When I returned to the family domain, it was already 9:40, and I looked at the dark and silent streets, and loneliness invaded my body and mind.

Passing by Sasuke's house, I saw that the house was also dark, "It's so late, I haven't come home yet...... Could it be that you have already slept......"

When I got home, it was pitch black.

I took out the key, opened the door, and after entering:

"Welcome home!"

A group of people turned on the lights and rushed out.

"!!" I was frightened. People are scary, scary to death.

Before I could react, I was taken to the living room and hung a banner: "Celebrate Uchiha Rain becoming Hokage!"

"You ......"

I looked at everyone, there were Koyuki, Sasuke, Kakashi, Kai, Red, Azuki, Asma, Nami, Berry, and that's all I had in my social circle.

"Smack!" "Smack!" everyone sounded the salute.

Xiaoxue walked up to me with a bouquet of flowers:

"Brother, congratulations on becoming the Hokage!"

I don't know if I should take it or not, after all, after becoming the Hokage, I only went home today......

After hesitating for a moment, I still took the flowers, "Thank you, Xiaoxue!

Then Kakashi and Kai bring out a large cake.

"It's ......"

"This is the cheese chocolate cake I made with my mom. Berry said.

"But...... Why do you want to write 'Happy Birthday?'" I asked, confused.

"Huh? What about it...... I was too serious about making cakes, and I was used to making birthday cakes, so I accidentally added them......" Berry explained.

"Alright, let's cut the cake, I can't wait. Red Bean said.

"You're not afraid of getting fat. "Kakashi.

"If you don't get fat, how can you have the motivation to lose weight. Red Bean responded with a smile.

I thought to myself, "...... It seems to be fine......"

"I've been reading documents for the past few days, so let's relax tonight. Nami said.

"Okay, let's relax. "I picked up the plastic knife Asma handed me and started cutting the cake.
