Chapter 132: Halftime break
Iruka was woken up by an unnatural gust of wind, and as he slowly stood up rubbing his sore head, he suddenly heard an imposing shout:
"I'm the chief examiner of the second exam, Mitarai Red Bean, and the next exam will start immediately, so all of you come with me!"
'Examiner? Mitarai red beans? What the heck! The first exam is over? ’
Thinking so, Iruka raised his head to look at the person who spoke, but at this look, he almost fell to the ground, and his sleepiness instantly dissipated when he saw that rather familiar face, especially the short purple-black hair, Iruka only felt that his breathing was much faster.

The familiar beige trench coat, the familiar fishnet suit and the beige skirt are the woman he recognized before who was once looked at by Iruka, although the beautiful pictures in his mind have long been replaced by the more impactful pictures of the countless photo albums he treasured, but he can't forget the embarrassing incident.
Absolutely not recognizable by her!!
Thinking so, Iruka found that Azuki's attention was all on those candidates, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly turned his back to Azuki Bean, while trying to stick to the examiners next to him, using their bodies as cover.
Hongdou didn't notice the small movements of a certain examiner at the bottom, because she found that the result of her imposing speech was actually - cold!
"Nobody pays attention to you."
Hongdou pursed his lips and glanced at the candidates below:
"Oh? 45 people, 15 groups? It's a little bit more than I expected, but it doesn't matter, I watched me go straight to the second exam. ”
Hearing this, Naruto at the bottom did not react at all, after all, in their opinion, there were only eight other people who threatened them, and if they had to fight to the death with one of the other eight people in the next exam to advance, then simply give up, there is no need to destroy the bond that has been established for five years for a broken exam, and if it is a competition that stops at the point, it doesn't matter, just fight hard, there is no need to care about winning or losing anything, anyway, there is no need to wait next time for this test.
Therefore, the nine of them are almost the most calm of all the candidates, which also attracts the attention of red beans.
"Okay, the specific rules will be discussed in the exam room later, now follow me first!"
After Azuki left the classroom with all the candidates, Iruka finally felt completely relieved, if there was anyone in Konoha who he didn't want to meet, Azuki was definitely at the top of the list, after all, although he was not at fault for the bathhouse incident, but in essence, he took advantage.
Izumi is okay to say, after all, she was just a 13-year-old girl at that time, and she just watched it, and it was no big deal; But String Moon and Red Bean were both girls at that time, so Iruka always had an inexplicable weakness when facing Red Bean and String Moon.
Now Iruka is a little glad that he fought with the three generations when he arranged the exam work before, and only became the examiner of the first exam, and the rest of the exams have nothing to do with him, so when other examiners are still preparing for the second exam, he becomes an idler, and he does not have to participate in the second exam, otherwise he must obey the examiner according to the regulations to arrange the exam, and he will inevitably face the red bean directly, and the ghost knows if he will be recognized by her.
Iruka left the school with a relaxed face, and now it's only afternoon, and Izumi is not at home because of a mission, so he has to cook by himself when he goes home, which is really a torture for him who has been lazy for five years, and the treasure that was swept away by Izumi last time has to be replenished.
Thinking like this, Iruka walked towards the bookstore, and it took him more than half an hour to select more than a dozen of his favorite books, and after putting these precious things in a large bag, Iruka thought for a while, and walked towards Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant with the bag.
After the baptism of Izumi's highly toxic seafood ramen last time, Iruka's taste buds finally eased up after more than a month, and suddenly I wanted to taste the taste of ramen for the first time in a long time, especially Ichiraku ramen.
After walking at a walking pace for more than two hours, when the sun was gradually setting, Iruka finally walked to Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant.
When I opened the curtain and walked in, there were only two guests inside, and Calamus didn't seem to be there, and only Uncle Yile was busy alone.
As soon as he heard someone come in, Uncle Yile habitually said "Welcome", and when he saw that it was Iruka, his eyes, which were originally squinting and looking very kind, suddenly opened slightly, and then said in a very familiar tone:
"Yo~ Teacher Iruka, you're here, long time no see."
I don't know if it's an illusion, Iruka always felt that Uncle Ichiraku's voice seemed to be deliberately raised, and the two ninjas who were eating ramen on the side looked over with some curiosity, and when they saw Iruka's rather dark scarred face, a touch of contempt suddenly flashed in the corners of their eyes, obviously knowing Iruka this famous soft rice man in Konoha.
"Eun, uncle hasn't seen you for a long time, please bring me a big bowl of miso tonkotsu ramen."
"Okay, Iruka-sensei, a large bowl of miso tonkotsu ramen."
So is it necessary for you to shout it out?
Iruka looked at Uncle Ichiraku who was busy helplessly, every time he came here, he always felt that Uncle Ichiraku's reaction was strange, this time it was even stranger than usual, and it made him feel like he was calculating something.
However, Iruka still felt that he was nervous, and Uncle Ramen was not particularly familiar with him, and he had no grudges, so how could he calculate him? It's only Izumi who is a disobedient girl who is planning how to trick him all day long.
After a short time, Uncle Yile put the hot ramen in front of Iruka, Iruka broke the chopsticks and started directly, and tasted the real ramen taste for a long time, Iruka almost burst into tears, and the shadow of the ramen made by Izumi's bowl of seafood ramen finally completely dissipated, and the big bowl bigger than his face became smooth in three or two strokes, and even the soup was drunk.
"Whew~ so full......"
Iruka touched her stomach and said with a look of pleasure, and then took out her wallet from her pocket and prepared to settle the bill, at this moment, the curtain behind Uncle Yile was suddenly opened, and the next moment, a beautiful girl wearing a pink dress, a small shoulder bag on her shoulder, and long hair with a maroon shawl walked out.
He seemed to know that Iruka was here, looked at Iruka quite "surprised", and then said politely:
"Hello, Iruka-sensei."
"Uh... You are... Calamus? ”
Iruka almost saw the aura girl in front of her as a figure deeply imprinted in her mind, because she usually liked pink outfits, plus two almost identical faces, which made Iruka have the illusion of time and space disorder, but fortunately, Calamus spoke in a gentle tone at the end, which made Iruka come back to his senses.
After all, she was a girl with a strong personality in her previous life, and her way of speaking was completely different from that of ordinary women, and she couldn't feel a trace of the gentleness that a woman should have, so as soon as Calamus spoke, he reacted.
It's just that they look alike, their personalities are too different, and they are two completely different people in nature, and Iruka won't directly take the iris as her substitute, but when she sees the calamus, she will inevitably involuntarily have some memories of her past life.
"I'm sorry, I usually see you always wearing work clothes, and the first time I saw you in civilian clothes, I couldn't recognize it, forgive me~ Anyway, you ...... dressed like this"
Iruka said, suddenly noticed that Calamus had light makeup on her face, her small mouth was obviously painted with pink lip gloss, and her moving eyes were also painted with eye shadow, and the temperament she showed was obviously very different from the hard-working and capable little girl next door in the past.
"Sure enough, I'm going to see my boyfriend, right? Hehe...... Calamus also cherishes the beautiful youth, come on~"
Hearing this, Calamus couldn't help twitching the corners of her eyes, she didn't expect that her careful dressing would only result in a misunderstanding, and Iruka's uncle-like tone as if she was an elder also made her feel a little weird, she knew that Iruka was just a 22-year-old young man, and the age difference between the two was less than five years, at most he could only be regarded as a big brother, and he was not qualified to preach to herself on the topic of youth at all.
However, the top priority now is to deny it quickly, otherwise it will be really troublesome for Iruka to misunderstand that he has a lover.
"That's... Iruka-sensei, you're misleading, I just wanted to go out shopping, and I heard that a nice new clothing store has opened on Nibankai, Chuomachi, and I wanted to stop by while shopping. ”
"Oh, that's right, hmm...... Are you going shopping alone? ”
Iruka pondered for a moment, then asked casually.
Calamus nodded, and seeing this, Iruka kindly reminded:
"Then remember to go home early, although the security in the village is quite good, there are still some bad guys, and it's not good to be entangled by them."
As soon as the words fell, before Calamus could respond, Uncle Yile on the side suddenly interjected:
"Calamus always forgets the time when she goes shopping alone, and every time I worry, Iruka-sensei, if you wait for nothing to do, can you please accompany Calamus? I'm relieved to have you with me. ”
"Huh?" (To be continued.) )
