Chapter 44: The Lion (2)
Hokage's office.
"Three generations." Koharu hurriedly pushed the door open and walked in, giving the three generations of Hokage a secret look.
"What's going on?" Ape Fei asked, making a gesture, and the two of them went to the small conference room in the inner room together.
By the time the two of them came out, Sarufei had already turned pale, and he walked in front of Koharu, taking his cloak and hat from the hanger.
When he walked to the door, he suddenly remembered, stood up and turned his head and said: "Niimura, all the tasks of the team will be stopped today, and in addition, you can help me contact the patriarchs of various families except Uchiha, as well as Jiraiya and Tsunade, at two o'clock in the afternoon, go to the third conference room for a meeting." ”
Shinmura, who was behind his desk, stood up and replied, "Yes, Hokage-sama." ”
After ape fei finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment, and then said to a young man with a high ponytail next to him: "Lu Zhen, you come with me." ”
The young man of the Nara family left with the Hokage and his party, and Niimura and the other remaining Hokage assistants were busy with the things that the Hokage had explained, thought about it, and clapped their hands to attract the attention of the others: "It's time for dinner, do any of you want a bento?" I can bring one back for you. ”
The person next to him put down the document in his hand and said with a smile: "Shinmura, Hokage-sama has only been out for a while, you can't help but want to skip class?" ”
Niimura scolded with a smile: "Haven't you been tired of the takeaway of the Asakura family? Change the taste once in a while, you don't want to forget it, there is always someone else who needs it. ”
"Haha, Brother Xincun is right, I eat this one at noon all day, I'm tired of it, Brother Xincun, call me a curry."
"I don't have to bother, I'll go back to eat at noon today."
It's just a joke to say that skipping work or something, and everyone in the Hokage's office asked Nimura according to their own needs, and he got up and left the office.
Not far from the Hokage's office, there was a rather bustling shopping street, and Shinchon walked in, chose a good one, ordered a few take-out foods, and hurried back.
It's just that there is a tea shop with a cold business, and the lame boss who doesn't like to talk much seems to casually glance at the back of Xincun leaving, and then lowers his head and slowly wipes his table.
#####
At night, Makoto silently walks down the street.
The Uchiha's house was already in the middle of nowhere, and when he came back from outside the village, there were no people on the street he passed, and it was only because there was a large warehouse on the street that he could occasionally see merchants or shopkeepers picking up goods passing by, and they were in a hurry.
An inconspicuous lame man on crutches also walked from the front, and when he saw Makoto, he seemed to recognize Makoto, nodded and saluted, and made a slight arc, just like the kind of jealousy that normal people show when facing a martial madman, and passed by the other side of the street.
Makoto's footsteps paused slightly, and in the pupil of his left eye, the three blood moons seemed to accelerate for a moment, and as if they were hallucinations, they continued their steps.
When I got home, the light in the living room was on, Qingxi had already returned, Cheng pushed the door in, Qingxi raised her head and showed a quiet smile: "Welcome back." ”
Makoto shook his head and didn't speak, and walked over to sit down at the table.
Qingxi stood up and served him food, and suddenly heard him ask, "Qingxi, what's the matter with your right arm?" ”
Qingxi's whole body was shocked, and he turned his head to look over, Cheng's eyes were still gray, and the six rounds of blood-red young moons were staggered and turning.
"Hurt." She said.
"Really......"
After another silence, Qingxi turned around and continued to help him take the meal and put it in front of him.
For the first time in two years, Makoto didn't immediately sink into cultivation, but turned his head and looked out the window.
Obscured by thick clouds, there was no moon in the sky, and there was not a single star.
It's going to snow again.
"Wait for two days, I'll help you see, it should be able to be treated."
Qingxi is a girl with a very strange persistence, and since she was a child, she has been impatient to look too much, and has accumulated a thick flowing sea to block the gaze of others. And since more than two years ago, her right arm was seriously injured due to the mission, but the medical ninjas in the family were helpless, because they didn't want to see the sympathetic gaze in the eyes of others, Qingxi chose to cut off the drift sea that she used to hide her appearance, and used her intimidating face to attract the attention of others from her disabled right arm.
Her right arm was injured and she couldn't take on anything slightly more important, but with just one arm, she still passed the upper ninja test.
Silent and beautiful, this is the impression she has made on others in recent years.
At this time, there was hope for treatment of the disability injury that had been plagued for a long time, but Qingxi only leaned over and put the chopsticks on the young man's hand, and replied lightly:
"Oh."
#####
Heavy snowfall, before the snow falls, it has been crushed by pedestrians and vehicles, and the fluttering snowflakes do not interfere with the prosperity of Konoha, and the snow in the sky is mixed with the bustling crowd, but adds a bit of excitement.
Far away from the center of Konoha and sitting in the Great Elder's Mansion where the Uchiha family is stationed, it is quickly dressed up as a world covered in silver.
The unique cold breath is very suitable for the existence of ice and snow, the flawless snow layer is not destroyed by human traces, and the snowflakes that fall silently accumulate on the branches of the cherry trees, and from time to time they crush the branches, making a soft "click" sound, which makes the silence of the courtyard even more.
A young girl held a flower umbrella for her, and the Great Elder strolled through the quiet courtyard, admiring the rare snow scene this year.
The garden is full of cherry trees, and if the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, the cherry blossoms fall brilliantly, and the quiet atmosphere in the courtyard is a different taste.
Of course, the yard is not full of cherry trees, and near the wall, there is a plum tree planted by a bird from nowhere, and although it is untended, the branches are also a little snow-white at the moment, mixed with the white snow, and it is not easy to distinguish.
Makoto was standing in front of the plum tree at this time, looking up at its branches, dressed in red and conspicuous in the snow.
The Great Elder's pupils shrank, and then slowly let go, and he made a gesture to stop the movement of his subordinates in the shadows.
"Elder Uchiha Lion, I have a few questions that I would like to ask you face to face."
Uchiha ...... Lion...... What a strange name, how many years have others not called him by his name?
The Great Elder shook his head and smiled, calmly meeting the pair of eyes with magnificent lines.
"It just so happens that I have a few questions here that I want to ask you."
