Chapter 8: Night Talk
At night, the sky is overcast with clouds and sand.
The villagers closed their doors and windows and hid in their houses to avoid the wind and sand, and the whole village was quiet, only the sound of wind and sand could be heard.
Red came up from the basement with a scroll.
Outside the window, the dark shadow flickered away.
Hong paused, his gentle eyes cooled, and a slender steel needle appeared in his hand at some point.
Click!
The lock turned quietly, and the door was opened a slit, and an eye peered in through the crack in the door.
Shout!
The silver light flashed away, and only a "poof" sound was heard, and the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was heard outside.
The door was blown open by the wind, and the sound of wind and sand blowing rushed in.
Red came to the door without hurry, and saw the corpse lying outside, dressed in black and masked, without a forehead guard...... Steel needles were inserted through the eyes, pierced from the back of the head, and were too dead to die.
Red looked left and right, and when he saw that there was no one else, he put the body into the scroll, cleaned up the bloodstains, and then returned to the house as if nothing had happened.
……
"That's it!"
After listening to Hong's story, Ryuuji groaned slightly, "It's those high-level people, I just don't know if it's those old things who are plotting immortality technology, or careerists who don't want the three generations of Kazekage to wake up." ”
"Do you want to release the scarab beetle to find out the news?" The big sister of the maid with long hair in a burgundy shawl suggested.
"It's just a bunch of worms, and if you have time to waste on them, you might as well study more new types of golems." Ryuuji pouted disdainfully, "Go and heat up the meal, I'm hungry." ”
"Okay."
Seeing the back of Hong's departure, Ryuuji sat on the bed in a daze, lifted the quilt and got up.
Arriving in the lobby on the first floor, the meal was served to the table.
Two dishes and one soup, both of which are simple home-cooked dishes.
"The host is still satisfied with tonight's meal, if he is not satisfied, I will redo it." Red said as he held a plate.
"It's good."
Ryuuji sat down at the table and ate slowly.
Red is a puppet with an autonomous soul and consciousness that can think and progress independently.
Ryuuji signed in on weekdays and got a lot of otherworldly recipes and books on chef training, all of which he showed to Red.
Her current skills are at the level of a five-star chef in her previous life, as long as the food she cooks is not the type he hates, then it will be fine.
Knock knock!
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
"I'll open the door."
Seeing Ryuuji nodding, Red turned around and walked towards the gate.
"Brilliant little ghost, you explain clearly to the old man, what does the eyes in the conference room mean?"
As soon as the door opened, Granny Chiyo burst in with a shout.
Ryuji glanced at her and said with a smile: "Granny Chiyo, have you eaten, let's eat together?" ”
"Do you think the old man is in the mood to eat now?" Chiyo glanced at him, and said angrily: "Lao Yu and my younger brother also take care of you a lot on weekdays, and my grandson has a good relationship with you, why can't you let him go?" ”
"I wanted to let him go, but ......"
"Ye Cang, that hateful little ghost also has hard wings, and he doesn't take the old decay in his eyes." Chiyo was full of anger, and his expression was distorted because of this, and his aura leaked out of his body, and the house was in a mess.
This is the age, and there is such a amount of chakra...... It's really a treasure that is not old!
Ryuuji muttered in his heart, but his face looked helpless, "Mother-in-law Chiyo, Ye Cang is just a businessman......"
"You're going to speak for her, aren't you?"
"She's been with me for seven years."
Chiyo's eyes froze, and Ryuuji also showed a sneer, "I respect you as an old-timer, and for the sake of how much you have taken care of me, so I won't comment on your spurs, but don't take my silence as an endorsement of you." ”
"Good, good, good!" Chiyo smiled angrily, "I didn't expect that the old man was also blind and cultivated a white-eyed ......"
"Make no mistake." Ryuuji looked coldly at the old man in front of him, "It's the village that cultivated me, not you. I am grateful for the care you have taken care of me, and I will repay your kindness, but this is not the capital you used to blackmail me. ”
"You ......"
"Okay, don't say it, don't you just want to save your grandson?"
Chiyo was stunned and reined in her edge.
"He won't die, nothing will happen, but he'll be expelled as a traitor to the Sand Hidden Village."
"This ...... Does it have to be evicted? ”
Looking at the embarrassed old man, Ryuuji couldn't help but smile, "The Red Sand Scorpion assassinated the Wind Shadow and committed such a serious crime, do you think you can act as if nothing has happened?" ”
"Of course I don't think so, but there's no other way to make up for it?"
"What do you think?"
“…… So be it, it's better than dead. Chiyo sighed and asked, "Then what are you going to do, is there anything you want me to help with?" ”
"You need some cooperation from the scorpion, you go and visit him, tell him the content of today's high-level meeting, and tell him that I will save him, and he knows what to do."
"Is that all?"
"That's it."
"Then I'll go now."
"It's not too late to go tomorrow." Ryuuji stopped the old man and tapped the rice bowl with chopsticks, "Look at your appearance, you haven't eaten all day today, right, let's eat together?" ”
"It's twelve o'clock, I'm not in the mood!"
Leaving these words, Chiyo left in a hurry.
"Is it already 12:00?"
Ryuuji touched his nose and opened the system panel.
[Name]: Ryuji Ayaki
[Points]: 10790
[Experience Points]: 306
[Continuous check-in]: 3602 days
There are very few things in the system store, only various books and materials.
And Long Er gets the most by signing in on weekdays is materials and books, and the cost of points is small, so there is a lot left.
And the experience points ...... Ryuuji will have a lot of skills, and the upgrade cost is very large, so there is almost nothing left.
"There are 48 days left before the sign-in for ten years, and I don't know what awards I will get for signing in for ten years." There was a hint of anticipation in Ryuuji's eyes.
Even if you have a salted fish system, you will get a lot of good things if you can check in more times.
Aside from the first check-in, get the newbie bonus nature: the knowledge of Aosaki Orange.
I have also obtained a lot of good things later.
For example, when you sign in for one month, you get the "Detailed Explanation of the Electromagnetic Cannon" in a certain future world, you get the "Ink Classic" of a fantasy martial arts world when you sign in for half a year, you get "The Golem and the Dragon" in a traditional Western fantasy world when you sign in for one year, and you get the Philosopher's Stone (not in steel) when you sign in for two years......
These are all good, but they are just good.
Especially those books of knowledge, although each of them is invaluable knowledge in the world in which they live.
But in different worlds, most of the knowledge is not used.
At most, they can only experiment according to their ideas and ideas, combined with the laws of the ninja world, and research new technologies.
