CHAPTER XXXIX
The Uchiha Itachi who has grown up is a very powerful person.
He doesn't like to talk, he always stands in silence in a corner and then looks at you faintly. obviously didn't say anything, but others would think that in his eyes, there would be a lot of things he wanted to express.
For example, "Ghost shark, you stand closer", "Ghost shark, do you take a bath, do you smell of sweat", "Ghost shark, wake up"...... Just kidding.
If you change it to a comic, it's probably a separate, neat storyboard with a string of ellipses in the dialog box.
He doesn't speak much, and sometimes the silence is terrifying. However, even if he was just standing alone, a certain god was so intoxicated that he couldn't help but revel in a world full of filters.
Cute little Shota has grown up and become more cute. With jet-black hair and a fair neck, beautiful eyes and pinna that make you want to touch them, she looks so good everywhere.
That's it! Perfect!
Uchiha Itachi became a regular at the inn.
Zhao Fenghong was a little relieved and a little annoyed.
Although it is a pleasant thing to see the cute Itachi-kun often, wouldn't it be a hassle if Itachi's whereabouts were discovered by those Konoha ninjas who were chasing and killing for thousands of miles and loved in the depths?
The students in between her are following in her footsteps, and Zhao Fenghong considers changing jobs after a while to help Itachi-kun avoid the risk of exposure.
Itachi occasionally asks questions, painlessly, neither dwelling on the past nor imagining the future with hope, all points in time stop at this brief "now", as if only this time is calm. Admittedly, both men know that the current "calm" is nothing more than an illusion.
It is very tacit not to mention the past, because no one wants to rub salt on the scars.
It is very tacit not to mention the future, because no one knows if there is a future.
"Is the teacher's job hard?"
"No, it's funny."
"Teacher...... Do you think of the people you've met in your life? β
"To be honest, most of them have almost forgotten. If it's particularly interesting, you'll remember it. β
"Mr. Oni is very gentle."
"I refused to go on a blind date with him."
"Teacher...... Why don't you tell stories anymore? It's been a long time since I've heard you tell a story. β
"Well, because the story is useless."
Zhao Fenghong's answer was very calm, but her heart was not calm at all.
Her story is useless and only causes trouble. No matter how beautiful the story is, if it is placed in a reality that does not fit at all, it will be reduced to a pipe dream. It's like the story she told the Itachi, about the White Yakshaβit was useless, it didn't do anything.
Perhaps, this is the fate arranged by God.
"So, the teacher ......" Itachi asked again, "Is the way to erase memories is hypnosis?" Or is it a kind of blood inheritance limit? Or is it a family heirloom? β
"Huh?" Zhao Fenghong was very puzzled why the weasel suddenly asked this question: "...... Pretty much. β
"Can the art of erasing memories be taught to others?" He asked.
"Hmm......" Zhao Fenghong touched her chin and thought, "Yes." Strictly speaking, as long as a human being makes a wish to the gods through guΓ², or obtains permission from the gods, it can do so. All aspirations must be made around the principle of 'equivalent exchange', which can be achieved at a certain cost. β
"What kind of things will you give?"
"Not necessarily. It will be the equivalent of a wisher. Zhao Fenghong put the back of her hand on her forehead and said, "When I erase human memory, the price I pay is my own memory. But I have so many memories that it doesn't matter if I erase them. The only regrettable ...... I can't remember what happened at the beginning of my life. β
"Is it a war?"
"Oh, yes." Zhao Fenghong said: "I always thought that the age when I met that thing was five years old...... However, I misremembered. I always thought that the person who saved me was just an ordinary person, but I also remembered wrong. I always thought I didn't meet those people later, but I also remembered wrong. Until now, I can't recall those things exactly. That's the price I pay. β
"Won't you regret it? Give your own memories. β
"When you give, you get something. Why regret it? β

Summer is quietly passing and the weather is getting cooler. Terukaede has finished her job at the hot spring inn and plans to move on to the next town. When counting the wages, the ghost shark also asked very considerately: "Otherwise, the teacher will apply to be Mr. Itachi's psychic beast, right?" A red-colored chili psychic animal. β
"Can a psychic beast hold Itachi-kun all day?"
"No, you can't."
"And you say a hammer?"
Because of the way, Zhao Fenghong walked with the ferret. Oni Shark is very dissatisfied with Zhao Fenghong's behavior of always stopping at the bookstore to buy erotic books, and often says to Itachi, "Your teacher is simply not conscious of being a teacher!" I don't know of any serious person who reads 18R regularly. At first glance, he is not a serious teacher. β
Itachi glanced at the ghost shark lightly, took out a thin book of intimacy heaven from his sleeve, and turned to the page where Miss Mika Tengshu and Harita met, and looked at it calmly. As he reads, his eyes are lowered and he is calm, as if he were holding a philosophy book in his hand.
Ghost Shark: ......
Okay, good, Nurse Madness Weasel, you're amazing.
Since then, these two people who look at 18R have become more and more disregarding the storage of ghost sharks.
When it's quiet, they look at each other, Uchiha Itachi is calm and calm, as if he is studying the truth of the world, and his face is full of anticipation, showing curiosity and innocence, as if he is a child who has gotten a new toy. When it's not quiet...... The two of them just got together to watch and whispered about a certain topic.
"Itachi-kun, sure enough, the stronger you are, the easier it is to attract the attention of others. The better you are, the easier it is to be narrow-minded. β
"Hmm."
"With his own mantis arm as a car, should he praise his stupidity or bravery?"
"Heroic."
"Resign from fame, retire to the market, and spend your whole life in the coexistence of depression and complacency, is it degrading or promoting?"
"Jan."
Ghost Shark: ......
- Hey! Are you really looking at an 18R that tells a love story? Aren't you really reading a philosophy book? How the hell do you see so much truth and nonsense! Sure enough, people who like philosophy see the world differently......
The ghost shark was almost blinded, and silently held the shark muscles to look up at the sky lonely in the distance.
Ah, he really wants to have a teacher who can communicate with his soul.
When the ghost shark was not there, Zhao Fenghong couldn't help but sneak a glance at the ferret, wanting to see something from this guy who always had a calm face. He was too quiet, always with a serious face, and there was almost no emotion. If he could, Zhao Fenghong hoped that he could smile like he did when he was a child.
"Itachi-kun, do you know what it's like to be 'love'? I heard it makes people smile. β
ββ¦β¦ I'm trying. β
"Then why don't you always laugh or talk?"
ββ¦β¦β
Zhao Fenghong put her fingers on Itachi's face, tugging at the corners of her mouth and trying to squeeze a smile upwards. However, no matter how you fiddle with it, it looks ridiculous. Eventually, she let go of her hand in frustration and gave up struggling.
Maybe one day, when Itachi sees Sasuke, whom he hasn't seen in a long time, he will smile for the first time in a long time.
"Will the teacher leave again?" Itachi asked suddenly.
ββ¦β¦ Possibly. Zhao Fenghong looked at the book spread out on her knees and gave an ambiguous answer.
In fact, it was already time to leave, but she had been procrastinating and unwilling to leave him. The next wisher's wish grew stronger, showing his impatience, but the god did not appear in front of him for a long time.
Who the next wisher would be, she didn't know, and she didn't bother to guess.
All she knew was that she didn't want to leave here, or the guilt would overwhelm her.
This is the child she has witnessed growing, and it is also the child she has given love. He was the only one she felt the urge to stop, and she was the only one who accepted his past.
When you're with Uchiha Itachi, time always flies. Unconsciously, most of the year slipped by. Seven days will feel extremely long when you stay with someone you don't like, and how long you stay with someone you like is just a moment.
"Before the teacher leaves, I would love to know the answer to a question." Itachi said.
"Well, what's the problem?"
ββ¦β¦ Forget it, nothing. Itachi lowered his head slightly, his fingertips on his knees, white as a shower of snow.
"Hey!" Zhao Fenghong pressed the cross on his forehead: "I don't remember I taught you this way of speaking!" β
The Uchiha Itachi didn't speak, half-open a pair of black, transparent eyes like black gems, and quietly watched her alone angry, neither answering nor asking questions.
"Since you don't say it, then I'll answer it myself." Zhao Fenghong cleared his throat and said in a very fast voice: "The name is Huayueyuan Zhao Fenghong, real name, real name." The age is kept secret, and the measurements are definitely the type that men like. I don't like to eat so I don't have favorite food and I don't like it, and my hobbies are reading and observing life, especially cute little boys. I like Itachi-kun very much, and I've liked it since I was a child. I like it for no reason, and I like it by accident. Ah, I actually like a young child, I ...... I'm guilty, I'm sinning...... I ......"
After a moment of incoherent speech, she continued: "There are no ideals, and there are no big aspirations. I want to stay with you until you can live in peace. β¦β¦ Well, what else could be the problem? I'll think again. β
It seems that the chatter disease has been committed again, and the flood gate cannot be stopped. But such an incoherent and unprovoked answer made Uchiha Itachi listen attentively.
"That's enough." Itachi interrupted Zhao Fenghong's words: "I have heard the answer I wanted. β
"Huh?" Zhao Fenghong was still half-open, and looked up at the weasel a little dazed.
- Well, Itachi-kun is really good-looking, and you can see Mikoto's shadow on his face. I just don't know why, his face seems to be magnifying...... Not......
Kissed.
Fortunately, there was still time to freeze time quietly before being kissed, so that the ghost shark didn't twist his head back. When time is frozen, everything is quiet, except for the sound of breathing. The soft lips rubbed against each other, the tips of their tongues tentatively touched, cautiously trying to learn from those humans in love.
The pages on Zhao Fenghong's knees happened to be frozen in the posture of being blown by the wind, and half of the pages were turned and condensed in mid-air. The words on that page are fine and dense, and they write about a woman's love lightly.
"God said to her, 'Since one day you will forget a qiΔ, it is better to say what you love before you forget it, and to finish all that you have time to accomplish.' To love someone bravely, to cry and grieve for him, to be happy and troubled for him, to be vigorous and vigorous, to be gentle and tactful, and as light as the wind, it is better to get what you want first than to leave without any care. ββ
