Shikamaru's dazed mind seemed to be called by that trace of sweetness, and part of his sanity was recalled.

So, when he felt the curve of the bath towel, he suddenly felt that this dream was a little too real -

"Flower Palace..."

He closed his eyes and called tentatively.

"Hmm."

He heard an affirmative, definite reply—like a pour of sweet spring water poured over his drowsy brain, and he knew at once that it was not a dream in which he could do whatever he wanted.

In just a moment, many thoughts flashed through his mind, such as: how did Hanamiya Suzu escape from such a powerful person, and why Hanamiya Suzu was here......

But he soon found that the one thought he cared about the most was ......

- Should I let go now?

When one clearly realizes that one is not dreaming, the feeling that one had previously thought was illusory will soon be filled with reality.

His left hand was still pulling the girl's wrist under the water, just like the experiment he had just done, all the water would slip through the fingers that were not firmly gripped, and the only thing that was clenched tightly was the wrist that looked unusually docile in the palm of his hand.

Shikamaru thought wildly, maybe water would expand people's senses.

Because his other hand was obviously just very simple, stopping on the back of the other party's neck, which was smooth and not covered by a bath towel.

However, it may be that he doesn't fit the skin tightly enough - after all, there are few two pieces that can fit the fluid seamlessly.

He felt the warmed water slip under his palm, as if, as if, as if...... His hand was moving downward......

The feeling of realism made him want to stop......

"Shikamaru-kun?"

The other person may feel that he is still unconscious, and his tone is slightly confused, and he presses a hand on his forehead.

The coolness of the girl's palm brought salvation to his hot forehead.

"You have a fever......"

Shikamaru heard the girl sigh softly in his ear, and seemed to be unusually troubled by the current situation.

'No wonder my eyelids are so heavy... It turned out to be a physical problem......

This explanation made his own heart feel a lot better.

As long as it doesn't touch the girl... It wasn't for touching the girl, he had a sense of happiness that his sanity was still there.

Shikamaru finally breathed a sigh of relief......

Now he seems to be much more sober.

The girl blinked, "Shikamaru-kun, are you okay?" ”

Her expression was calm, as if what had just happened had nothing to do with her......

It's because it's related to me, so I don't care... Or does it seem to her that it doesn't matter?

Shikamaru's heart was mixed, and he felt that if he was a little hesitant, the eyes would never be again... appeared in front of your eyes...... Never again......

"Eh......"

He removed his hand and let go of the doubts in his heart, and the turbidity that had been stuck in his heart since the girl's disappearance was slowly brought out by a long sigh.

"You go first."

"But, Shikamaru-kun, your body," she blinked again, "is it really okay?" ”

"It's okay."

If you're still here... It really matters......

He felt like his palms were going to burn... Just now he was a little careless, and slid down a little along the waistline... Probably... There really is only one point......

Shikamaru thinks he's still admitting it.

There's nothing to be ashamed of......

He looked up and saw the girl's flawless face, the small and delicate jaw that could be closed with one hand, and the bridge of her nose, her lips, and her neck...... Her whole person is so beautiful that people doubt her true existence.

The girl raised her hand, wrapped her arms around the young man's neck, and gently rubbed the side of his face with her head, "Then Shikamaru-kun, please don't look so weak in front of me, okay?" ”

When she moved like this, her whole person seemed to be a puddle of warm water that was intertwined with Shikamaru......

Shikamaru couldn't tell the weakness that the other party was referring to was the weakness in his expression... or the body's non-resistance......

But when the girl wrapped the towel tightly, the back of the departing disappeared at the end of the corridor...... He felt... It is not for nothing that you have fallen......

This comforted him a little.

He's a ninja, a ninja who once just wanted to keep a low profile for the rest of his life.

Find a woman who is neither beautiful nor ugly... Live a dull life.

Shikamaru pressed his brow wearily, realizing that his ideals had begun to deviate from his exact life trajectory......

[Ding~Get the love value from target character 2 X100~]

[Emma! Shikamaru boy, this is an enlightenment? OVO】

Ling Mei lay on the bed and happily rolled around the quilt a few times ←←

[Probably willing to admit it, how can I say that this kind of precocious child should have realized that something wrong with him early~ Not to mention that you are still ...... You're repaid! Lure! Tut-tut←←]

[Huh? Speaking of... Shikamaru boy is still just a teenager after all~]

[Do you think there's much difference between a ninja's teenager and an adult?] 】

[Eh~ Actually, there are still some~ After all, if it looks like Kakashi...... I'll have a little more to think about than deerball... After all, it's like Kakashi's uncle's age... Burst! o(*////▽////*)qI don't mean anything~]

【…… Tut-tut, don't you think you're also a hundred-year-old Golden Saint Seiya~]

has been complained about by the system too many times, and Ling Mei said that she has completely seen it now, ┑( ̄Д ̄)┍

[So it's more mature~Hey, hey, hey~]

【……】

Ninjas won't be much luckier than these warriors... Probably only the despair of the world does not seem so complete at the moment......

Ling Mei blinked her eyes and rolled a few more times...... ←←

The next day, with a cup of tea, Ling Mei looked at the red-haired boy with a big gourd on his back from the turn of the stairs and followed by a lazy pigtail boy who couldn't stop yawning. She put down her teacup and turned to the side slightly, equipping the 'Ear Root Pink' skill, giving herself a 'shy state' with a 'Carnation' buff that increases the recovery speed of the sick.

Leave it to the deer ball that is not suitable for waking up in the morning, and the weight that life cannot sink into, a dignified and beautiful back ←← by the straight lines of the kimono

Eh, hey, hey, hey, it's said that this contrast will be very good~

"Ahem!"

When the back slammed into Shikamaru's field of vision, he did clench his fists in disguise and coughed loudly twice.

The afterglow of last night's low-grade fever immediately scalded his little heart, which had not cooled down for a long time.

"Huh? Shikamaru, what's wrong with you? ”

The blonde boy who followed him had an upright face, and by the way, he withdrew his hand and patted Shikamaru on the shoulder heavily.

Maybe he used too much force or the boy he patted on the shoulder was too distracted-

When Shikamaru found himself stepping on the empty stairs, the pain of his nose almost being broken also surged into his nerves.

"Hiss......"

The beautiful picture in my mind was knocked out of smoke......

QAQ: Who did I recruit and who did I mess with?

Shikamaru Yu died.

Walking in front, I Ailuo turned his head and hesitated for a moment, but finally beckoned a little sand and helped up the two people lying on the ground in the shape of Arhats.

When a few people sat around the table together, the atmosphere began to be awkward again.

Naruto silently took a chicken leg, chewed it silently, swallowed it silently, and silently took another chicken leg......

Suzumei ( ̄_, ̄).

Last night, a few people straightened out the whole thing under the leadership of the Shikamaru boy, except for some places that really couldn't be explained - such as the identity of Suzu Hanamiya, such as the identity of the man in black......

But they really didn't have a position to ask, Naruto and Jiraiya were tasked with sending Hanamiya Suzu to Sand Ninja Village, and Shikamaru was tasked with cooperating with the ninjas from Sand Ninja Village to send Hanamiya Suzu back to the Land of Wind, and the two were not contradictory.

As for what happened in the middle, whether the girl regained her memory, they didn't have the right to open their beaks at all.

And looking at it now, the girl has no intention of taking the initiative to speak, so they can only remain silent together.

Because it was a one-sided long table, Shikamaru sat in the farthest position from Suzumei, and Naruto sat down next to Shikamaru, but instead it became Iairo who sat next to Suzumei.

"Ahem" Shikamaru coughed dryly twice, focusing everyone's attention - "That, I... I... Now, let's go back to Konoha and tell the five generations of Hokage about the current situation, the information that Ning Ji brought back a few days ago, now look at it... It's outdated......"

His eyes began to wander involuntarily.

Because he propped his head on the side of one hand, he looked sleepy and lazy, and the eyeballs that slipped from one end of the eye to the other did not appear abrupt.

"Huh? Don't suck it, deer, fan, pill, pear come with us, let's go," Naruto swallowed the food that was too full in his mouth, and poured a large glass of water into it, "Anyway, this kind of thing just needs to be handed back with a scroll~" finally expressed his opinion clearly.

Shikamaru stared at Suzume with complicated eyes - he found that the girl was turning the teacup in her hand, looking peaceful, and not revealing anything because she and Naruto disagreed... Excess expressions......

Shikamaru was a little depressed, "That, Naruto, I'd better go back and tell you in detail about the current situation of the five generations of Hokage, this thing," he took out the task scroll from his arms, "I'll hand it over to you for safekeeping." ”

On the other side, I'm drinking the soup quietly.

Sister Suzu pushed the plate of food in front of her to the next seat, "Please try this." The tone was gentle, but not deliberately flattering.

I Ai Luo frowned slightly, and the tip of his index finger holding the soup reflexively raised, revealing a puzzled look.

"Because you look like you haven't been sleeping for a long time, this kind of thing should help you a little bit." Ling Mei pointed to a certain food on the plate and explained, "Also... Haven't had time to thank you for that day......"

Since he was kidnapped by someone of unknown origin so soon that day, it seems that there is nothing wrong with thanking Ara, who was fighting with me at the time......

The rest of the people all looked as they should be.

→→ Ben Gongju prepared ~ingredients~~for this thank-you early in the morning~

Li Gouhi (crossed out) I love Luo boy~ Don't make a big deal to this public act~ Reveal what you know~

(╯"□′)╯(┻━┻This public act really cares about - what an important fruit this public act is! Ma Dan, there is actually a nationality! And hunted down! Life is simply not too colorful~

My Airo finally furrowed his brow, and smiled a little shyly, "Hmm," he took the plate, and politely added "thank you".

Shikamaru ...... I'm going back to Konoha to calm down...... I—I obviously had a fever last night, and it turned out to... QAQ…

Naruto (『) Emma, it looks delicious~

Suzumi (^_^)
