Chapter Seventy-Two: A Winter Night
A cold wind poured into the room through the open window, and Yagamiki snorted. The chill suddenly made him realize that early winter had come.
The days passed so fast, he exhaled softly, and the water vapor turned into a white mist in the cold air.
Today is the twenty-eighth day of Yagami Ki's position in charge of the internal affairs of Ninja Village, after coercion, inducement, suppression and support, killing chickens and monkeys, etc., Yagami Qi has established his prestige in Ninja Village, and no one dares to underestimate this seemingly eight-year-old child. It wasn't until now that the entire Otoshinobi Village was truly functioning in Yagamiki's hands.
At this time, it was late at night, and Yagamiki had already asked Shiro, Junmaro, Shiba Haiyan, and Yagyu Kazuki, who had been helping to deal with government affairs, to go back to rest. Except for Chiba Haiyan, who has experience in the dark department, the other three actually don't know anything about government affairs, and Yagamiki has to explain simple things to them to lighten the burden a little, and there is no lack of thoughts about the cultivation of dialogue and Junmaro.
Yagami looked up at the few small stars hanging in the cold sky, and put down the official business he was working on.
It's like a dream, and even though I've been in this world for eight years, I still occasionally think that this world is illusory. He thought as he looked down at the papers on the table again. Bright yellow light filled the room, pouring out the window.
Yagami watched as the shadows of the trees shimmered in the moonlight.
Yagamiki, who had immersed himself in the cold air of early winter, finally felt a hint of coldness. This coldness soaked into the skin, accompanied by Yagamiki's breathing, through the trachea, and spread throughout the body.
What followed was a loneliness like this chill that made people have nowhere to escape.
Yagami looked up at the full moon in the sky, and he stretched out his hand to figure the size of the moon. The moon in the Hokage world is very similar to the moon in the previous life, but it is different after all. As long as he thought that this moon was created by the six immortals with the Earth Explosion Star, and the ten-tailed shell was sealed in the middle, all of Yagamiki's beautiful imagination of the moon disappeared.
Yagami is homesick. He was rarely homesick.
Sometimes I think about it in my dreams, and when I wake up, I force myself to forget it. When you're awake, you don't even think about it. He knew he might never go back, so he wouldn't think about such a painful thing.
People are always like this, they want more after having a lot. His life in this world is much more wonderful than that of his previous life, but he still can't help but think about the days of his previous life and his family in his previous life.
"I hope that people will last a long time, thousands of miles together" even the moon is different, and what to use to solve the lovesickness.
Yagamiki closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths to get all thoughts out of his mind. When he opened his eyes, Yagamiki's eyes flashed with coldness, and he became the second 'Orochimaru' who was feared and feared by the people of Otoshinobi Village.
Tuk γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» Tuk Tuk γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»
A gentle knock sounded on the door, and Yagami couldn't guess who was outside the door for a while. Maybe some ninja in the ninja village was driven by fear to run to show his loyalty?, he guessed casually, walked slowly to the back of the door and opened it.
Standing outside the door was someone Yagamiki hadn't expected.
The lilac hair was scattered, the little face was flushed, and the red lotus stood outside the door vividly. She was holding a thermos pot in her hand.
"That γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» Xiaoqi..."
"Come in first. Yagami smiled.
"What do you bring me something to eat?" Yagami said with a smile as he brought a chair to her desk for Red Lotus to sit down.
"It's barbecued pork noodles with winter bamboo shoots. Red Lotus replied in a much quieter voice than usual.
"Well, that sounds good. Taking the thermos pot from Red Lotus's hand, Yagamiki pushed the document aside and opened the lid of the thermos.
So a wave of heat came out, which made Yagami feel a trace of warmth.
The bamboo shoots and barbecued pork on top of the noodles are arranged in a regular pattern, giving a sense of the care of the person who made them. Yagamiki took the spoon and chopsticks handed over by Red Lotus, and took a sip of soup with the spoon.
"It's delicious. Yagamiki, who took a bite, said, "The saltiness is just right for my taste, and the flavor of the barbecued pork and winter bamboo shoots goes well together, and the noodles are also chewy." What's even better is that the aroma of barbecued pork makes you whet your appetite. β
Hearing Yagami Qi say this, Honglian, who had been watching expectantly, also smiled.
"Well done, Red Lotus. After swallowing a piece of winter bamboo shoots, Yagami Qi said.
"Heyγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Honglian was taken aback.
"Didn't you do it, I'd be disappointed if I got that? Blinking, Yagamiki said.
So Honglian blushed and nodded slightly.
Seeing that Red Lotus was so shy, Yagami Qi withdrew his gaze from looking at Red Lotus and ate the noodles slowly. For a moment, the whole room was filled with a comfortable atmosphere of silence.
"Before I knew it, the girl had grown so big. "Enjoying the food, Yagami thought.
Another cold wind blew into the room, and Red Lotus, who had been silent next to Yagamiki, stood up and closed the window.
"Close the window, it's getting cold," Red Lotus said to Yagamiki as she closed the window.
Yagami Qi hummed softly, and the red lotus closed the window.
At this moment, Honglian, who turned around, saw a letter that had fallen to the ground.
"This is..." Honglian, who picked up the letter, saw the contents of the book.
"Well, it was Orochimaru who wrote it. He has already joined Akatsuki, so that his control over the Otoshinobi Village will be reduced in the future. Yagamiki raised his head, and a serious expression appeared on his face that had never been seen before.
"Now, there's no better time to start that plan, Red Lotus. β
Honglian's hand trembled, and a solemn expression appeared on her face.
"Is that plan finally about to begin? β
"No, it's already begun, to be exact. After receiving this letter, I asked Kazuki to send a letter of summoning. I had promised them a home, and now is the time. β
After saying this, Yagami continued to bury his head in eating noodles.
The plan in Red Lotus's mouth, only Yagamiki, Yagyu Kazuki, and Red Lotus knew everything, except for these three people, Shira, Jun Maro, and Chiha Haiyan only knew part of the plan.
The first step in this plan was to gather the group of orphans who had been displaced by the war during Yagamiki's half-year trip to Otoshinobi Village.
Yes, the orphans formed small organizations at Yagamiki's suggestion, which allowed them to survive, and at Yagamiki's suggestion, they did their best to take in as many orphans as they could.
Every month, Yagamiki, Red Lotus, and Yagyu Kazuki exchanged no less than five letters with them, and Yagamiki worked hard to find a way to deliver them the food, clothing, and tools they lacked.
Yagami even wrote them a book on the organization, expounding on the organization's ideas. Every morning, they would have a discussion about the ideas of the organization.
This method was learned by Yagami from the assembly of a certain party and a certain religion.
Star, which is the name that Yagami gave them. It means that they exist like stars in the night sky, everywhere in Yoda no Country. Yagami will adhere to this development model that transcends the Hokage era and support the organization.
One day, members of the stars will appear everywhere in the world. And membership is no longer limited to orphans, but to everyone.
A spark can start a prairie fire.
When Orochimaru was completely in control of the Otoshinobi Village, Yagamiki would not have played such a big move. That would have caused him to be swallowed to the point of not even the dregs left. And now Orochimaru is going to spend some time in Xiao.
These hours are enough for Yagami to make some small moves and completely integrate these orphans into the Otoshinobi Village without being discovered by the returning Orochimaru.
Raising his head and drinking the last remaining soup, Yagamiki burped and wiped his mouth without any image. At her desk, Honglian sorted out her papers and utensils.
"Red Lotus, if you don't mind, wait for me for a while, finish the matter at hand and go back together. Yagami said to the red lotus who was about to leave after tidying up.
Hearing Yagami Qi say this, Red Lotus sat back in her seat and showed a shallow smile.
Despite the cold wind raging outside the window on this winter night, the room where Yagamiki and Red Lotus stayed was very warm.
