"Aren't you on a mission?" Although something seemed to be loosening in her heart, Rika asked with a very unhappy expression on her face. "Words * love * first * hair

"Well, the mission ended early, so I stopped by." The silver-haired ninja scratched his head, and his smile was a little shy, which did not match his wise image of Konoha No. 1 Technician at all: "It's really the most gorgeous mansion in the Fire Country, and if you accidentally get lost......"

The corners of Lixiang's mouth curled and snorted: "Isn't what you're good at getting lost?" ”

The silver-haired ninja smiled a little awkwardly: "...... That and this are two different things. ”

The summer breeze blows across your cheeks, and the water lilies in the pond sway.

Rika's mood seemed to improve more than a little bit at once, and she burst into a smile that was brighter than the June sun: "For the sake of you saving me, I'll take you to the exercise ground." ”

Kakashi didn't doubt him, slipped his hands into his trouser pockets, and jumped over the flower garden to Rika's side, "Thank you, princess." ”

The maiden led him in the direction he had come, descending the wooden stairs of the cloister and weaving along the stone path in the shade of the trees. Only occasionally one or two guards and maids passed by in the huge courtyard, and they saluted them with surprised faces and withdrew. I guess all the people are concentrated on the training ground.

The young man and the girl walked side by side, and all the way they saw the purple and red in their eyes, and the sound of gurgling water from the bamboo bamboo stove seemed to be in their ears.

It's hard to imagine that the Daimyo's Mansion would have such a quiet and elegant daytime.

"Looks in good spirits, princess." The silver-haired ninja's dead fish eyes glanced at the girl beside him and spoke.

Rika looked at him sideways, her bangs shook slightly in front of her forehead, and she said word by word: "You look as listless as before like a decadent middle-aged uncle." ”

“…… It's a very unpleasant description. ”

Rika laughed unceremoniously, leaning over to stare at his mask: "So, if you don't take off your mask, you won't be able to see that you are younger than Asma at all!" ”

- Phew.

Kakashi was hit by an arrow in the knee.

A certain archer with the skin of a beautiful girl was still unconscious, and he was still happily saying: "I heard that the water lilies bloom very well this summer, and the water lily festival will be held in the capital in a few days, you can accompany me to sneak out of the Daimyo's Mansion to play~"

Kakashi squinted at her, "Abducting the princess without permission is a capital offense." ”

"It's a date!"

…… He suddenly remembered that he seemed to be in a hurry, could he leave first?

The silver ends of the hair hung down like an eggplant wilted by the wind and frost, and the eyes of the young dead fish had a bitter look, obviously mixed with a hint of why it was always my misfortune that was unlucky.

Wasn't it okay at first, why didn't you say a few words and it became such a strange topic again! - The decadent middle-aged uncle Kakashisan slumped his shoulders weakly.

"About liking me...... Ahem, do you think about it again? There are many powerful ninjas in Konoha who are your age but more reliable than me. ”

"It's not just ninjas." Rika blurted out, seeing that the young man next to her looked at her with a little puzzled, Nunu said in a serious tone, "I don't like you because I like ninjas." ”

The big eyes shone brighter than the sun, moon and stars, staring straight at the dead fish eyes of the silver-haired ninja.

Very willful and stubborn, but also very calm and pure.

The look in her eyes was completely different from when she first met him.

Read 18. Prohibit. The first technician of Konoha in the book was shaken for a moment—almost believing that the girl in front of him really liked him—like Rin liked him, and Obito liked Rin.

However, the silver-haired genius came back to his senses without a moment's thought—how could it be, the princess didn't know anything about him at all, and had set him up to suit her own desires based entirely on subjective impressions.

- Adolescent girls, it's understandable to have a little strange thoughts about unfamiliar young men.

However, he finally rose from Cheng dù of pets to Cheng dù of a normal human man who was loved by innocent and ignorant girls - this should be more fortunate to be?

- The first technician didn't have time to congratulate on this kind of thing.

The handsome silver-haired genius has no shortage of admirers since he was a child, with the battle of Shenwu Kunqiao that changed his life nine years ago as the dividing line, before the age of 12, he was cold and arrogant and disdainful of all the girls who loved him, and after the age of 12, he began to gradually learn, in addition to the late vice of bringing soil and the approachable attitude of his best friend. Then, slowly, slowly, in a very gentle and tactful way, he rejects every admirer.

Yes, Kakashi Hachiki has never accepted any girl who likes him so far.

Of course, Rika didn't know this.

- Nothing else, I just like you as a person.

That's what the girl was trying to say, but the young man didn't seem to think it was something to think about so much—it wasn't long before she would find it as boring to see him every day, as she had done the last time.

So, as always, the young man smiled perfunctorily with the tolerance of the older for the young.

As a result, Kakashi missed the best rejection opportunity to nip love in the bud.

The bamboo tube hits the stone with a thumping sound, one after another, smoothly and regularly, and does not make people feel irritated. The fragrance of many kinds of flowers mingled and spread in the middle of the courtyard.

Occasionally, a petite bird folds its wings and stops on a rockery in the pond, keeping its head down to observe the carp that keeps spitting bubbles in the water.

The silver-haired ninja finally noticed something unusual, looked around at the scenery that seemed to be a little familiar, and asked, "Princess, we just walked this road, right?" ”

Rika looked innocent: "No." ”

The silver-haired ninja stopped suspiciously, "Didn't this pond pass by ten minutes ago?" Even the location of the rockery is exactly the same. ”

Rika said disapplausively: "The design and layout of more than a dozen courtyards in the Daimyo's Mansion are all similar, even if they are exactly the same scenery, what is surprising." He snorted as he spoke, pursed his lips and looked unhappy: "Do you know the route better than me!" The tone was so firm that it was not half skeptical.

The man who was complained about drooped his dead eyes in resignation, no longer questioning, but not so much believing her as not wanting to argue with her: "Yes, yes, I was too careful, I'm sorry." ”

The girl took a step, with an expression that you love to come, and if you don't come, you will die, and walked in front of him.

- Although this princess feels older and a little more sensible than before, her temper is more capricious and difficult to deal with than before. Kakashi shrugged and followed her with a few strides.

- I guess it's the time of rebellion. The silver-haired ninja thought to himself.

As if deliberately changing the subject, the girl asked him a little stiffly about how he was doing—but she didn't seem to be someone who cared about other people's well-being.

"Me? It's still the same, except for practice, it's about performing tasks. Why did the princess suddenly ask about this? The silver-haired ninja put his hands in his pockets, perhaps because he didn't let go of every minute and every second of reading the little yellow book, and he was slightly hunched back when he walked.

Fortunately, he was tall and tall, and even if he bent his back slightly, he was half a cut taller than the girl next to him.

The sullenness of unknown reason just now slowly gathered in her heart, and Rika pretended to speak calmly: "The mother said that you must understand his living habits before raising a pet. ”

Kakashi: "......=_="

- Did it turn out that it was just his own wishful thinking that he had moved away from the role of a pet!!

The shadows of the trees swayed, and the shadows of the young men and maidens cast on the stone slabs were also intertwined with the shadows of the trees. The sun overhead unconsciously changed its angle, and the golden light became more and more dazzling and hot.

On the other side of the training ground, the battle between Moonlight Blast and Nanwu has ended, and the referee is announcing that the ninjas in the next competition are Tenzo and Tomao. Ji6 and Asma were talking from the sidelines, "It's a pity that Kakashi-kun didn't come this year, and I thought that if I had the opportunity to fight him again, I might be able to make a shame." ”

Asma scratched the back of his head and laughed, "It's a pity, I heard from Konoha's companion that Kakashi was on a mission in another country and couldn't come back." ”

And the first technician of Konoha in their mouths was in the courtyard of the Daimyo's Mansion not far from the training ground at this time, led by a girl with ulterior motives, going around and around on the winding stone paths and wooden corridors.

Probably because of the first opening of love, even though Lixiang is arrogant and willful, she has a little more cunning and careful thinking.

About halfway through the battle between Tenzo and Tomao, the guardian Shinobi, who had just returned from outside and was hurrying through the courtyard to the exercise ground, suddenly stopped, looked at the two people strolling among the large blooming fuchsia begonia flowers in surprise, and rushed out without thinking: "Rika-sama and Kakashi-kun? How did you end up here? ”

The silver-haired ninja replied, "Yo, Nishito-kun, I'm heading to the training ground." ”

Lixiang secretly said that it was not good, and sure enough, in the next second, she heard Xidu say: "Me too!" ”

When the silver-haired ninja heard this, he immediately smiled: "That's great, I'll go with you." After speaking, he turned his head and said to Rika, "The princess has other things to do, right?" There's no need to take me to the training ground so troublesomely, I'll just follow Xidujun over. ”

Rika reflexively reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes.

Silver-Haired Ninja: "......?" ”

In this regard, Xidu, who had a large nerve strip comparable to the trunk of a hundred-year-old tree, looked at them blankly.

The silver-haired ninja reluctantly patted the top of the girl's hair, and smiled gently, "Don't do that, princess, I'll come to visit you when I have time." ”

Rika's eyes widened: "Really?" Will you come? ”

- It's going to be weird.

The silver-haired young man smiled stiffly.

The princess's temper is like the weather in June, and it changes when she says it—Rika said with an arrogant look of disdain, "You're not coming, are you?" It's a flirtatious talk, hum, I know. ”

The first technician was speechless for a moment.

Breaking this strange atmosphere was the Western Capital, who was like a monk who was confused, and the honest young man who couldn't look at people's faces interjected: "What are Rika-sama and Kakashi-kun talking about? ”

Rika didn't bother to pay attention to him, and turned around angrily and deliberately walked towards her exclusive courtyard with heavy steps.

Xidu behind him was still saying uninterestingly: "Where is Lord Lixiang?" Be sure to keep your attendants with you, even in the Daimyo's Mansion! ”

Li Xiangtou didn't reply, and said angrily: "Go find the cage!" ”

“？？？” Saito and Kakashi looked at each other. After a moment, the silver-haired ninja was the first to speak, "Although I don't know why, but Xidu-kun, you seem to have made the princess angry." ”

"Huh?!" Xidu looked incredulous, "Is it me?" I think it has something to do with Kakashi-kun! ”

The silver-haired ninja looked thoughtful: "In the end, the princess was angry after talking to you." ”

"-?!!"

On the surface, it seems that this is indeed the case.

Xidu hugged his head and exclaimed, "I will definitely be blamed by the Daimyo-sama!! ”

Kakashi reached out of his trouser pocket and patted him on the shoulder with his left hand, "I sympathize with your plight too. There was no hint of sympathy in his tone.

"However, Xidu-kun is very similar to one of my juniors. Well, you don't have to care. ”

In the battle, Tenzo suddenly fought inexplicably
