♍ .302. Knee talk
“——…… That's pretty much it.、"
He fell to Kakashi's bedside and whispered in his ear what he had seen.
“………… yes, but it's just that person's words... It doesn't matter. ”
Kakashi had mixed feelings, "Now that you've found it, you don't have to worry about anything...... By the way, Mr. Jiraiya is probably still looking for people in the places I mentioned, can you please help convey it? Just say, 'You've found someone.'" ”
He spoke like an NPC that issued tasks, and he still didn't have intelligence.
"Of course it's no problem, seniors should have a good rest."
Zhishui waved his hand to him, and did not forget to pick up the apples on the ground, wrap them in paper and take them out and throw them away.
Kakashi also watched him leave with a smile.
After confirming that it was time to stop the water and go to Jiraiya, Kakashi lifted the quilt and put on his shoes, reluctantly walked to the window, opened the window and looked out, and then carefully stepped out of the window frame.
He gritted his teeth and stepped on the wall with the chakra, and then condensed the few remaining chakras on the palm of his hand, and the whole person prostrate on the side of the outer wall, moving down little by little.
He still felt that Naruto's matter had not been resolved.
If you don't go now, after that... No.
I won't let that happen.

Kakashi was so anxious that he let go and fell to the ground, but luckily he lived on the third floor, and the place where he fell was the first floor of the ceiling a little down, although he fell on a butt that hurt more than his usual walking wrestling, but it didn't make him unable to walk.
He collapsed on the ground for a moment and then struggled to his feet, clutching the part of his thigh that limped down to the no-man's path he knew.

"What about people??"
Jirai, who had searched several places to no avail, was also found by Shisui and brought back to the hospital, but the Kakashi were gone.
"Uh, I'm probably going to find Naruto... I said I hope he can have a good rest. ”
Zhishui rubbed his face, and suddenly felt very tired.
…… Because he suddenly flashed in front of Jiraiya-sama just now, he was beaten by Jiraiya reflexively, and he was still hit in the face.
It is said that it is because it is convenient.
Kakashi can't come to that way. Naruto will definitely not be like this, and Hinata also said that no matter what happens, he also persuaded Jilai to leave it alone, so the people who are more familiar with the village will not suddenly flash over like Shisui, so ...... Hm.
Jiraiya squatted over and lifted the sheets, trying to see if the person was hiding under the bed.
But unfortunately, it didn't.
"So where is Naruto now? I'll see if I can stop him. ”
Jiraiya scratched his head, "Why don't you go and treat it too, although the injury is not serious, it should be easier to treat...... The medical expenses will be credited to my account. ”
"No, no, no, no, this injury is nothing, and now the top priority is to find Kakashi-senpai......"
Zhishui shook his head and waved his hand again, "I'll go too."
- "Naruto is in ——......"
He honestly told Jiraiya the location he had written.
…… The two of them only need to intercept Kakashi in the middle way, and they don't have to go to Naruto's side, so the matter of 'that person' will basically not be exposed.
And if your own side is close, you should be able to detect it with that person's strength.
Shisui thought optimistically.

But he underestimated Kakashi's 'love cub' mentality.
Although they did get to Kakashi's side before he made contact with the child, ...... At that time, it was only ten meters away from the child's position.
It's all to the point where 'that person' can see the three of them as soon as he looks up.
Kakashi, who was closest to them, didn't seem to notice the two extra people who had arrived.
"I ...... I owe you a great favor."
Kakashi stroked the tree and opened his mouth breathlessly.
If it's rude, it's rude, Zhishui hurriedly walked over a few steps to interrupt their communication - but Jilai didn't give him such a chance.
Jiraiya covered his mouth and swished, and then took him to hide behind a tree.
One is because it will be a little troublesome if he is found out, and the other is that he is quite curious about what this person is like.

Naruto stopped crying.
Obito is now sitting on the ground, leaning against a tree, and there is a child in his arms who has finally quieted down.
The child's own clothes were covered with a coat that was given to him with a soil cover.
“…… You don't have to worry about it, the reason why he became like this is probably because I have made so many wrong choices...... And I can only soothe him like this now. ”
Obito closed his eyes and lay back on the trunk of the tree.
It seems to be a little cold today, and he feels a little sore in his head when he has given his coat to the child.
"Sorry...... That's up to me. ”
Kakashi took a few deep breaths, letting his breathing become relatively smooth compared to what he had just done before he walked lightly over to them, crouching down beside them.
"He's really different from a normal kid...... The things you want are completely different from other children, and you have always taken care of such a troublesome child? It's hard for you. ”
Obito just doesn't want to move at all now, because coaxing the child has simply used up all his mental and physical strength...... The kid was pretty heavy.
"I don't think he's troublesome at all."
Kakashi said very seriously.
"You're so troublesome, you're really a 'family'."
Obito opened his eyes and glanced at him.
"Thank you."
Kakashi rubbed Naruto's hair.
The child is now sleeping soundly.
He hesitated as he withdrew his hand, then reached over and gently touched the red circles of the child's eyes, a little sad.
"It's scary to think that I might be like you."
Obito looked up at the dark clouds.
“…… I'm sorry. ”
Kakashi had nothing more to say than apologize.
“…… I ...... when I think that I might also want to 'make amends' because of my 'mistakes' and then become like you I feel completely unacceptable. ”
Obito exhaled a breath of mist and went out.
- "Although I am indeed wrong, and the person in question does have the right and right to ask me to do the 'atonement' like you, can I ...... I'll never be the same person I used to be. ”
- "You've been taking care of him for almost three years, he's so strong, I don't think I can keep that ...... all the time."
Obito put his hand on his forehead and in front of his eyes.
Kakashi couldn't see the look on his face right now.
“…… In fact, he only learned about me for the last half a year... He was much better before than he is now, but I only feel sad when I see him like that...... I don't want him to suppress his nature to adapt to the life he is present, although I hope that he will be willing to force himself to live at least fifty or sixty more years, although he thinks so......"
Kakashi clenched his fists.
- "He's easy to hurt people, so I thought it would be nice if I could take it all." ”
——“…… If only I was the only one to suffer. ”
