Konoha is not as fun as Rika imagined. As the head of a family, Hinata Hinata has a lot of affairs, and he goes out early and returns late, and Rika doesn't see him much. Hinata usually goes to school, and only on weekends does she have time to go shopping with her.

However, Hinata is really not a good guide.,Too quiet and too shy.,Always keep your head down and blush-faced when talking to people.,Often disliked and despised by Rika.。 Fortunately, the girl has a gentle temperament and a good temper, and she gets along well with Lixiang. But it hurt Tokuma to be worried all day long, for fear that the eldest lady of his family would be bullied by the princess and have to swallow his anger.

Hinata is indeed a girl who will bear it silently alone if she is wronged. Kindness is kindness, but it is also too weak.

Although Rika doesn't like that kind of person, she won't deliberately embarrass her.

Since the last time Kakashi was taught a lesson, Rika was very angry when he mentioned him, and sometimes when she met him on the street, she immediately pulled down her face and turned her head as if she didn't know him. will express her joys, sorrows and sorrows so frankly, I really don't know whether to call her simple or naïve, maybe both.

Kakashi is happy to be idle. Although he doesn't care about children, he won't be unconditionally accommodating, even if it's the daughter of a daimyo. Rika is a spoiled kid in Kakashi's eyes.

Strange to say, the first technician is getting more and more tactful, but he is still holding on to some things and refuses to back down. The people who come out of Konoha always have an inexplicable sense of justice, and they will never stand idly by and watch things that they can't see. Of course, except for Orochimaru, who has rebelled, and the dark roots led by Danzang are also excepted.

Hidetoku hopes that Konoha can teach Rika the Daimyo's Mansion what it can't teach her.

Konoha izakaya.

The silver-haired ninja lifted the dark blue curtain, and the black-haired youth at the bar waved at him, and the izakaya owner smiled heartily, "What a rarity, Kakashi-kun." ”

Kakashi's dead fish eyes seemed to be half-awake, and as he sat down, he said to the black-haired youth, "It's rare that you'll invite me to drink, Tokuma." ”

Tokuma humbly poured him sake: "I have always respected Kakashi-san......"

The silver-haired young man glanced at him, took a sip of his drink, and then put down his glass, he had always been very restrained in drinking. Unlike Asma, an old smoker, Kakashi neither smokes nor drinks alcohol, and has a surprisingly healthy lifestyle. At least healthy on **. His obscene image that has been poisoned by "Intimacy Paradise" for a long time will not be mentioned for the time being.

"I, I think it's not easy for the princess to come from afar with a girl." Tokuma said as if he was full of emotion, and sighed with care, and the corner of his eye kept peeking at the face of the man next to him.

Probably because he was wearing a mask, Tokuma couldn't tell anything from the man's face.

Kakashi replied on the ground: "Well, you don't have to worry, the princess has brought twenty followers to serve her." Isn't the Hyuga family also responsive to her needs? ”

Speaking of this, Tokuma frowned, afraid of being seen by Kakashi, and hurriedly reorganized his expression, and continued to say earnestly: "The princess is really in love with Kakashisan, even I, the outsider, can see it." Moreover, men are supposed to tolerate girls' petty tempers. Kakashisan, make peace with the princess! ”

He looked at the silver-haired young man excitedly and expectantly.

Kakashi squinted at him and asked lightly, "Can you see that?" ”

"Uh......" Tokuma choked, gritted his teeth and nodded heavily for the sake of his eldest lady, "Of course...... So, Kakashisan! From tomorrow onwards, you can accompany the princess! ”

The loyal Hyuga was on his knees and pleaded.

Kakashi looked like he was thinking seriously, and his brow was solemn, and after a while, he reached out and patted him on the shoulder, sighed, and said, "I understand your distress. Hizogaku-san will leave the care of the princess to you, but the princess's temper ...... It's not easy to serve. It's hard for you. ”

In the end, it was someone who had come into contact with the princess, and he expressed the unknown bitterness of Tokuma in a few words.

Tokuma suddenly felt that the elite Shinobi in front of him might be the person who understood him the most in Konoha Quan, and couldn't help but burst into tears. After drinking several glasses of wine in a row, he began to vomit bitterness as if he had found a soulmate: "I'm not for myself, I'm worried about Miss Hinata!" Miss Hinata is so weak and kind, what do you say if you are bullied by the princess? What should I do if I am taken away by such an arrogant princess? Miss Hinata is a good boy......"

It's out of control.

Where Rika and Hinata have been, what they have done, what they have said, the details, no matter how big or small, talk endlessly, and tell the story.

Kakashi sat patiently and didn't interrupt him once, occasionally pouring him a drink and a couple of comforting words.

However, he did not look at all like the kind of enthusiastic young man who would never tire of listening to the complaints of others.

It wasn't until the izakaya closed that Tokuma, who had vomited bitter water all night, finally felt a lot more relaxed, and after paying the bill, he bowed gratefully to Kakashi at the door of the izakaya, "After telling you, I feel a lot more comfortable." ”

Kakashi still looked like a good young man who cared about his companions, one hand habitually inserted into his trouser pocket, and the other tapped him on the shoulder twice: "Among the ninjas of the Hyuga clan, I am very optimistic about you." Come on. ”

"Yes!" Tokuma was immediately motivated.

In the young Tokuma's mind, Kakashi, who is also young but has become the first technician of Konoha more and more, and he is even more grateful.

The wind in the late summer evening was slightly cool, and Tokuma walked back to Hinata's house, and along the way, the drunkenness was blown away a lot. At least when he stood in front of Hinata's main house, he was already more than half awake.

Then, the young ninja, who was relied on by the patriarch, suddenly realized that he had forgotten his original intention of inviting the first technician to drink tonight.

Convince Kakashi and Princess Rika to reconcile→ Princess continues to pester Kakashi→ has no time to pay attention to Hinata→ Hinata is able to stay away from the delicate princess → great success!

However, he completely forgot about it!

It's not so much that Tokuma drinks too much and forgets, but because a certain genius Shangnin has been misleading intentionally or unintentionally, making his topic unconsciously deviate from the original intention.

Moreover, regarding the two things he proposed at the beginning, reconciling with the princess and playing with the princess, the man never agreed!

A gust of wind blew, and Tokuma shivered--he, was, suddenly, suddenly, had!!

***

The next day, Tokuma was about to go out to pick up Hinata from school, and met Rika in the front yard, and the girl couldn't tell that she wanted to go with him. Tokuma's head was big, and he pushed left and right, but to no avail, so he reluctantly looked at the many attendants behind her, and said, "It will cause trouble to Miss Hinata if so many people appear at the ninja school together." ”

Hearing this, Rika turned around and instructed very happily: "Liangzi is with me, and the others don't have to follow." ”

Tokuma Yuki was dying: "Princess-sama, the ninja school is full of a bunch of naughty imps, and there is nothing fun to do. Why bother with this trip. ”

Lixiang raised her eyebrows and squinted at him, I am not happy, and you don't want to have a good life.

Tokuma was exhausted and muttered in a small voice: "Kakashi-san is so cunning......"

Rika couldn't hear him talking to himself.

The maid Ryoko looked at him thoughtfully.

Unlike other towns and villages, Konoha has a regular school and a ninja school, but either one is strange and new to Rika. The Daimyo Mansion has its own tutor, and Princess Rika has never gone out for a day of school.

Because Rika was with her, she had to take care of her slow steps, and Tokuma arrived at the ninja school a little later than usual.

There were also a dozen or so children waiting to be picked up by their parents in the vast open space at the entrance, and they gathered together, laughing and shouting. Hinata wasn't among them.

The girls stood not far from them, but the laughing and laughing children did not notice her.

No wonder Rika often says that the eldest lady of the Hyuga clan is as ordinary as a dispensable sand in the desert, which is really unusual.

Hinata saw Rika, and a surprise appeared in her white eyes, and then she ran over. "Why is the princess here?" She asked, tilting her head.

Tokuma took her hand, leaned over and replied very gently, "Hinata-san, we're here to pick you up from school." With such a good face, he has never shown it to Rika and the others. Although the patriarch Hizoku is very strict with his eldest daughter's cultivation and often shows obvious dissatisfaction, Tokuma thinks that although his personality is weaker, the eldest lady Hinata is indeed a good child worthy of love.

Rika's attention didn't fall on the person next to her, she pointed to the little boy who was dangling alone in the distance, and asked, "Who is the boy over there?" ”

The eyes of the three beside her followed the direction she was pointing.

The blonde boy on Chiaki looks about the same age as Hinata, and unlike Hinata's weak sense of existence and being ignored, it can be seen from the expressions of the children not far away that the boy is being ostracized by his peers for some reason. They knew he was there, but they didn't want to approach him.

There was disgust mixed with fear on Tokuma's face, and it flashed so fast that Rika and the three of them didn't have time to notice. The tone was also extremely light: "That's Naruto Uzumaki." The orphans in the village are very naughty and cruel because they are unsupervised. ”

Their generation, when the Nine-Tails attacked the village six years ago, were still teenagers, and they witnessed the village turn into hell in an instant, and their relatives sacrificed one by one, and the shadow in their hearts probably will never be erased. For Ren Zhuli, there is disgust and fear, so naturally he will not get close to him.

Hinata looked up at Tokuma, her mouth moving as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she bit her lower lip and didn't make a sound.

Tokuma was afraid that Rika would be interested in the Nine-Tails Pillar Force, so he hurriedly reminded: "That kid is rude to anyone, and the princess must not approach him." As soon as the words fell, he added: "Miss Hinata too." ”

Hinata frowned slightly, her eyes watery and her head drooped.

Rika looked at Naruto twice, then turned to Tokuma and asked, "Orphans?" Do you hate orphans? "The eldest lady who is loved by thousands of people will never understand the plight of orphans.

"No, it's just ......" Tokuma is quite difficult, Naruto is a nine-tailed pillar force This fact cannot be said to outsiders, nor can it be said to the children of Hinata's generation. After worrying for a long time, he finally came up with a reliable reason: "Naruto, that guy often plays pranks and mischiefs everywhere, so everyone hates him." ”

Rika nodded as if she understood, and didn't ask any more. Tokuma breathed a sigh of relief.

Ryoko suddenly spoke, "It is said that ...... Qimu-san is also an orphan. ”

Rika looked at her in surprise. Ryoko bowed slightly to her sudden interjection, smiled slightly and explained, "I accidentally saw a little bit of the information about Hachiki-san that Tomao-kun presented to Rika before. ”

Rika meets Kakashi for the first time, and after asking the Hokage for help, she asks Tomao, one of the Guardian Ninja Twelve, to collect information about Kakashi for her. Dongmao dutifully completed the task, but unfortunately Rika only flipped through it and didn't look carefully.

At this time, after being reminded by Ryoko, I realized that Kakashi's background did not seem to be very good.

Tokuma didn't think there was anything to hide, so he said peacefully, "It's true that Kakashisan's parents died very young. ”

Rika was amazed in her heart. It's like this, I can't see it at all. The man had an eye that bent into a crescent moon when he smiled, maybe a pair? It's a pity that the other one is tightly covered.

If you had to dig deeper into why Rika fell in love with the silver-haired ninja at first sight, it would probably be the answer - before she met him, she never knew that a man's smile could be so good-looking.

However, even Rika herself was not really aware of this answer. She just went with her heart, and as usual, when she saw what she would be happy about, she confessed what she liked, without the slightest qualification, and tirelessly tried to keep what she liked for herself.
