29. Chapter XXIX

As the leader of the Konoha Ninja Village and the leader of the Sarufei clan, Sarutobi's every move naturally attracted the attention of everyone in the village. Ri's adoption of an orphan girl immediately attracted the attention of his followers. For this adopted daughter, whose identity is a mystery and suddenly appears, these vigilant ninjas have raised their own questions.

"If she hadn't tried to get close to the Uchiha clan repeatedly, no one would have noticed her!"

"Neither an Uchiha nor a Konoha ninja, an outsider suspected of being a spy, but trying to get close to the Uchiha clan who have been ostracized, it's better to be wary of such people."

"How can you explain Uchiha Itachi who escaped to meet her on a mission in the shadows, and her behavior is so abnormal?"

These doubts continued, and they couldn't wait to stop the adoption and identification process. However, Sarutobi Hizashi is very persistent, emphasizing that "Terukae is just an orphan who has suffered from the war", "and Uchiha Itachi is just friendship", and is willing to put Terukaede under his own care.

For the persistence of the sun, Zhao Fenghong had some doubts.

- Is this the will of God?

But she is a symbol of providence!

When she received her identification, she had mixed feelings. The name registered in the name column is her real name, and the long string of words in Huayue Yuan is neat. Fourteen years old, guardian of Ape Fei Ri Chop.

She stood at the gate of the Hokage Building, shielding herself from the summer sun with this ID. Captain Ono of the Torture Department was following behind her, looking like a follower. The bald Ono said to her, "Miss Terukaede is going to see her new residence?" ”

Zhao Fenghong lowered her head and pondered, and said, "I'm waiting for someone." ”

Captain Ono was unconscious: "Who are you waiting for?" Your Excellency the Third Generation? ”

Zhao Fenghong stretched out her arm, pointed her index finger straight forward, and said, "I'm waiting for him." ”

As soon as Zhao Fenghong's words fell, a few leaves shook off from a tree directly opposite, and the young Uchiha Itachi wearing dark armor fell from the tree, and a small black braid also fell upside down. He pressed his feet on the thick branches and greeted Zhaozhao Kaede: "I heard that you were adopted as an adopted son by His Excellency Hokage, I came to congratulate ......"

"Wait a minute!" Zhao Fenghong raised his palm and said to Uchiha Itachi, "You just stand there, we can't get any closer." ”

"Huh?" Uchiha Itachi blinked and asked, "...... What's wrong? ”

"Whoa." Terukaede crossed his arms and said, "Itachi-kun, do you know that you are being watched by the Uchiha clan and the Konoha higher-ups at the same time? ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Captain Ono immediately became nervous. Ono waved his hands up and down, and said to her in a cold sweat: "Miss Zhao Fenghong, this, this is the so-called 'secret that cannot be disclosed', you can't say it directly like this, it's not good...... It's not good to be known by the three generations......"

Uchiha Itachi didn't mind Terukaze's words, he turned over neatly, jumped off the branch, and landed lightly in front of Terukaede. He replied, "Yes." ”

If you were an ordinary ninja, you would be angry and suspicious when you know that you are distrusted. But Uchiha Itachi's voice was very indifferent, and he didn't seem to mind the double surveillance at all.

He paused for a moment, frowned slightly, and asked, "Is my identity causing you trouble?" Ms. Asami ...... Asami. ”

"It's Miss Zhao Fenghong." Captain Ono coughed lightly and corrected the Uchiha Itachi's name.

Maple Red: ......

- Yes! Super big trouble! It's because I took a few more looks at you in the crowd!

The same can't be said for belching. Strictly speaking, the reason why it causes trouble one after another is only because there are many loopholes in Zhao Fenghong's identity. In order to close one of the loopholes, I had to open up the other loopholes even more. Something like that...... It has nothing to do with Uchiha Itachi either.

"Nope." Zhao Fenghong looked at this precocious young man and asked with some doubts, "How did it become like this?" - I mean...... Double surveillance. That's not what an eleven-year-old should ever do. ”

Such a question is simply impossible to answer. The Uchiha Itachi fell silent, and Captain Ono once again nervously admonished, "Miss Terukaed, it's better not to get involved in this kind of issue." Have you forgotten the instructions of His Excellency Sandaime? The affairs of the Uchiha clan should be tried not to interfere. ”

Terukaede also understood that what Ono said was correct.

As a god, she has no interest in the rise and fall of the Uchiha clan, but the Uchiha Itachi alone is a child who is independent of the village and family, and always makes her pay too much attention to it accidentally.

The intelligence and sensibility of his childhood made Uchiha Itachi understand something prematurely. Perhaps now, the responsibility of the eleven-year-old Itachi has exceeded her imagination.

Uchiha Itachi avoided answering, and instead talked about something else: "-Terukaed, it's your name, right?" Real name. ”

"Whoa." Asami nodded: "Yes, Kagetsu Yuan is maple red." ”

- Even if I sue you, it's useless. Someday, you'll forget the name.

Uchiha Itachi followed Kaede's words, kept a few steps away from her, and left after a hasty conversation. It was just a few simple lines of dialogue, but it made Captain Ono's heart surging and uncontrollable, and he couldn't help but start a gushing admonition: "Miss Terukaed, this Uchiha Itachi is not an ordinary person. If you want a playmate, you can find it in the Ape Flying family. The people of the Uchiha clan have always rejected foreign races, especially the Sarufei and Senju clansmen, who are all ......"

Captain Ono's mouth was like a river, which made His Royal Highness Zhaofenghong a little dissatisfied.

Zhao Fenghong supported her chin with her fingers, coughed slightly, and said to Ono: "I don't need something as superficial as 'playmate' at all. If life is wasted on play, then such a life is meaningless. It is rare to see a fifteen-year-old king who ascends to the throne of the world, never needs a playmate, but only pursues a Platonic companion who can satisfy the supreme needs of the spirit. Some friendships are too mean to treat only the narrow interests of human beings and the eyes of power. In the long history of history, there have been several kings who have had friends who are worth devoting their lives to, such as ......"

Ono: ......

"I know I'm wrong, Miss Zhaofenghong." Ono immediately admitted his mistake: "You are right. ”

Zhao Fenghong's new home is located on the second floor of a small building, and it is only two streets away from A-Xing's izakaya. As a child adopted by the Hokage, but not a member of the Sarufei clan, it is really good to have this treatment. Zhao Fenghong's old clothes are all Axing's, and they have already been packed and sent.

A shabby small package, incredibly thin, made Captain Ono feel pity.

Under that small cloth bag, there was also a rectangular wooden box. Zhao Fenghong opened it and found that there was a Satsuma pipa made of Axing Naban mulberry wood in it. Unexpectedly, Ah Xing actually gave her the love of her heart - was it forced by the majesty of His Excellency the Third Generation? Impossible, right? I just wanted to give it to her purely spontaneously.

Thinking of Ah Xing's desire to cultivate an heir to support her old age, Zhao Fenghong actually felt a little guilty.

Just as she was looking at the Satsuma pipa in a daze, the majestic voice of His Excellency Sandaime sounded at the door: "...... Zhao Fenghong, listen to Ono's report, you met with Uchiha Itachi again today? Why is he so attached to this child? ”

Maple Red: ......

Ono's bald head turned out to be in charge of spying on her.

"Just talked about the trivialities of life." Zhao Fenghong put down the Satsuma pipa and stood up. Dressed in Hokage Haori, Sarutobi Hizashi raised his head to look at the simple two-bedroom apartment with a pipe in his hand, and said, "I hope you can live a new life in Konoha Ninja Village and forget the trauma of war, but I don't want you to meddle in the affairs of the Uchiha clan and Konoha Ninja Village." As someone who is not from Konoha origin, these matters are too far away for you. ”

"Thank you very much for adopting me." Zhao Feng Hong Asahi slashed and said, "Hello...... But I would like to take the liberty of asking, what happened between the Uchiha clan and the Konoha Ninja Village? ”

Standing in the hallway for a long time, he turned out of the house in silence, looking up at the blue sky outside. He took a puff of cigarette with his pipe and said, "This matter is a long story, and I will naturally understand it slowly in the future." Now, whatever pact you have with Uchiha Itachi - as a guardian, I want you to know how to 'protect yourself'. The matter between the village and the Uchiha clan, I will slowly try to solve it. ”

"But, we didn't do anything." Zhao Fenghong was a little innocent.

"Then why does Itachi always meet you halfway through the mission?" Ape Fei Ri asked.

"This ...... belch...... "Zhao Feng red swallowed and vomited."

--I happened to see her on the street, and it turned out that the Uchiha Itachi grew in front of her like it had taken root, and she didn't know why......

"That's it." Zhao Fenghong closed his eyes and nodded, and said, "Your Excellency the Third Generation, isn't this a normal thing?" You see, the two of us are the same age, unmarried men and unmarried women...... No, no, I mean, neither of them has ever been in a relationship...... In some ways there is a common language to exchange ideas, ah, no, anyway. You see us, the relationship is very good. ”

“???” Ape Fei Sun turned his head like lightning, and with a trembling old voice, he asked, "You mean, you two, oh...... Age comparable, the opposite sex is alone, so ......"

"Ah, yes, that's what it means." Zhao Fenghong didn't organize the language well, so he agreed to the words of the day.

"But......" said Ape Fei Ri with great difficulty, "Itachi is only eleven years old. Shine maple red, you ...... You ......"

Maple Red: ???

Did Your Excellency Hizai misunderstand something?

Wait, this reason...... It seems to be pretty good.
