It was still a while before lunchtime, and Shuo Mao seemed to have just returned home, and he hadn't started to prepare anything or do anything.

However, Yu saw a green vest hanging on a nearby hanger, an ordinary one, and a sleeve with it.

However, the one with the sleeves is a little behind, and if you don't look closely, you will think that there are other clothes, not additional sleeves.

"I felt this before...... Maguro ran here at a fast speed, and the purpose seemed to be my house, and I thought something was wrong. Shuo Mao prepared a glass of ordinary water for Yu, poured some water into the wine bowl with a little confusion, and handed it to Maguro.

"Actually, I wanted to go to the school to find Kakashi, but I was worried that something would happen to Maguro himself when he came here, so ......" Yu scratched his head, "Can I let Makoro come here by himself when it's almost noon?" My eldest brother doesn't seem to be very good at getting along with her, and when I go to school, I don't know what will happen, so I take her out without permission, and I don't want her to go to the wild to hide from ......, and I will prepare the ingredients, Uncle Shuomao's cooking is delicious, and I hope she can eat it...... Will pay! Maybe not much ...... though."

Yu took out more than half of the money he had in his pocket in the morning and handed it out earnestly.

A strange beast, which is already a large animal for humans, came to his house with great vigour...... I can't say it that friendly.

And Shuo Mao is also a ninja, and he is not unaware of the situation around him like ordinary people.

“…… Uh, this ......" Shuo Mao didn't know what to say.

He hadn't been in contact with strange children, and he didn't know how to get along with other children, after all, no one else was Kakashi, and his personality was much worse, so he couldn't be treated the same way.

And there's another animal here...... He has also cooked and entertained others, and there are also animals, but they are basically small animals, and this ......

…… Do leopards eat vegetables?

He didn't collect money.

The other party is a child, and it makes no difference if he makes one or two more servings for lunch, and this kid has already started to bring ingredients, so he can't let him carry back such heavy things, right?

"You don't have to pay, it's just a little more ingredient, and it won't take much, you better take it, as long as you're willing to be friends with Kakashi, do you have anything you like to eat?"

Shuo Mao smiled and pushed Yu's money back as he walked to the door and briefly looked through the bag.

There's a little bit of everything in it.

"I'm not a picky eater, and I can eat anything in the dark...... Thank you, uncle. ”

Yu stretched out his hand and brushed the surface of the money and sighed.

[Although I have saved a lot, I can't spend any money I want to spend in the past few days here......]

It's nice to get what you don't have to spend your own money on, but it's still ...... It's awkward.

She put the money away, poured out half of the water in her cup for Mahero, who had run all the way, and then drank the rest of the water, and followed Shuo Mao, who was carrying things, into the kitchen with the cup.

"Are you going to start preparing lunch? I'm here to help, I'm always helping at home! I've done all the peeling and chopping! You won't drop the dishes when you wash the dishes! ”

Yu put the cup on the table to the side and patted his chest, looking very confident.

"Yes, yes, but ...... Hmm, can you please help wash the rice? ”

Shuo Mao bent down and said with a smile.

He wanted to refuse to come, but Yu just looked at him with bright eyes.

A child's eyes can be destructive to people who are more friendly than the average person.

Unless it is a case where the child's eyes are so small that they look like they are squinting or the person on the other side cannot see.

"No problem, wrap it up on me!" Yu beat his chest again, trotted around the back of Shuo Mao, and grabbed his tied ponytail, "Uncle Shuo Mao, do you still have extra hair rings?" Or scissors will do, I haven't cut my hair in a long time, my hair is too much of a hindrance, and if I accidentally fall into the rice, I will be despised by Kakashi. ”

Shuo Mao's hair is firmer to the touch than real black hair, and it is not soft at all.

It feels very similar to Jiraiya's hair, which is fried and tied up.

"Yes, you wait a minute—" Shuo Mao moved his things to the side so as not to trip Yu, and walked out of the kitchen.

Then he saw the real black in the living room, who didn't know whether he was at a loss or bored, and was circling around the small low table.

"Really black...... You can lie down first...... Sit down on the cushion over there, and I'll borrow it from your little master first. ”

Shuo Mao took out the kunai that he had put in his pants pocket, stuffed it into the ninja bag on the side, and went back to his room to find the hair ring.

The hair ties that Shuo Mao has are all very simple, dark red rubber rings.

"Thank you, uncle." Yu saw that he also brought a small comb over and reached out to pick it up.

"I'll do it, tie it up, won't you?" Shuo Mao smiled and pulled him into the living room, squatted behind Yu's back, picked up the comb and combed all his hair back little by little, "Your hair is not short, how long has it been there?" ”

(✨ The explanation of the symphony of "he" and "she" and other symmetries of Yu is in chapter 30, and the explanation of the symphony of "it" and "she" and other symmetries of Maguro and Yu is in chapter 27.) ）

"I don't remember, it's been a long time since I last cut my hair, and my brother doesn't know how to cut it, so it's a waste to cut just a little bit when you go outside, so keep it for a long time......" Yu made it into his past naturally.

"Is that so? Then I'll cut it for you after lunch, if you're willing to believe me. Shuo Mao combed all of Yu's hair together, put down the comb and put it on his wrist with a five-finger loop, then replaced the one holding Yu's hair with his hand with the hair ring, pulled the hair tie off his wrist, and flipped it to tie Yu's hair into the same hanging ponytail as himself.

- He doesn't wear a high ponytail.

Yu's hair length is just enough to be combed to the back of his head, and there is no fish that slips through the net.

"What's your name?" Shuo Mao stroked his hair and asked.

"Yu, although it's this, it's actually anything you can call it." Yu couldn't see his hairstyle, but he didn't care if it was good or bad, and even felt that his vision had become wider.

"So, Yu, your hair feels smooth and tied up...... It's like a cute girl. ”

Shuo Mao picked up the hair on the comb and on the ground, and crumpled it in his hand.

"It's often said...... That's why I thought that I should definitely cut my hair short before I officially went to school, otherwise it would be bad to scare the boys in the same class or the next class when I go to the toilet. ”

Yu quietly revealed to him that he was the one who was going to the men's bathroom.

She always felt that Shuo Mao was testing her gender.

…… How to say, there are very few boys in the classmates who will play with Kakashi, and only girls other than Kai will run after Kakashi enthusiastically, Obito doesn't count, Obito is someone who wants to beat Kakashi at all times except for rubbing fish and eating Kakashi.

She didn't know what Shuo Mao thought, but it was always better to be cautious anyway.

And she missed the toilet before, if she goes to the women's toilet again...... It might be beaten out, if explained...... Then her previous brain pumping behavior of going to the wrong toilet will be exposed, and she doesn't want to do that.

Although no one can actually make her feel ashamed if she is a little cheeky, ......

Anyway, if you act as a man, you don't have much to lose, and it's even easier to get along with Obito and Kakashi now.

The only downside is that you can't get too close to Lin...... Because in the eyes of others, I am a boy and not a girl.

However, you can also use this to get close to Lintao in front of Obito, so that he has a sense of crisis.

[Well, that's fine.] ]

She secretly attached herself to herself.

"Indeed, it would be better to cut it shorter in that case." Shuo Mao didn't doubt him, even if Yu didn't explicitly say 'I'm a man'.

Shuo Mao went to take out the small Mazha in the bathroom, put it under the sink, took out the inner bowl of the rice cooker for Yu, rinsed it a few times, and scooped a few cups of rice into it.

"Be careful of the edge of the pool, don't get hurt, I'll pick the vegetables first, and I'll leave it to you."

Shuo Mao is like a kind old father who advises other people's children.

Although he is indeed a father, and he is not old in age, he looks a little.

Sao Mao wasn't going to tell Yu how much water to add.

Yu said that he often helped at home, but Shuo Mao didn't believe much of it.

Because Yu looks too young, a little younger than Kakashi in his own family, how can he feel comfortable letting such a young child do these things if there are older people in the other party's family?

…… No matter what Yukai stewed the rice into, he wasn't going to say it, and if the final result was too bad, then he would have to tell him how to stew the rice, so don't say anything about it now.

Shuomao didn't expect much from that.

-

Yu carefully rolled his sleeve to his elbow and washed his hands twice, then took a little water in the inner tank, and lay on the side and turned over the rice grains with his hands.

Some of the rice is a little shallow, not like that, but Yu still wants to pick out all of them.

[Shuo Mao and Kakashi are also from that constellation, so it shouldn't be anything......]

Anyway, it's just a few dozen grains of rice with a few dots, not much.

After picking the rice, she took some more water, and reached out to rub the rice grains in the water, so that some of the clumps of rice were scattered.

Pour clean water, pick up the water and pull the rice to wash again, pour clean water, and then quietly add a little salt. After picking up a clean dishcloth and wiping the outside of the liner without leaving a drop of water, he carefully got off the Mazha with the liner containing white rice and water, and walked to Shuo Mao, who was squatting in front of the trash can to peel garlic.

"After washing, do you want to peel the garlic afterward? I'll do it. Yu stared at the garlic in Shuo Mao's hand.

“…… Okay, okay, I'll leave it to you here. Shuo Mao smiled reluctantly and took the inner tank and handed the garlic to Yu's hand.

…… Kakashi is not such a warm person, although Kakashi is also lively and cute like a normal child when he is at home, but he is so ...... The child, Shuo Mao himself is seeing it for the first time.

He put the liner back in the rice cooker, picked up the cord and connected it to the power supply, pressed the cooking button, and then brought the vegetables, onions, and other things picked from the plastic wrap that had been laid out a little further away from the trash can to the kitchen counter, cleaned them, and put them on the cutting board for a while before proceeding to the next step.

(✨ Realistic cats and dogs can't eat onions and chocolate and foods high in salt (human food has a lot of salt for animals), and here are psychic animals, so no problem.) ）

-

It's time for lunch break at the ninja school, and Kakashi returns home at a slightly faster pace than the others as usual.

But today no one welcomed him home.

Kakashi opened the door and saw what was going on in the living room.

- A small panther.

When the panther saw him, he got up from his seat.

"......" Kakashi stood still for two seconds and immediately pulled out all the shuriken and kunai in his bag, and threw them all at the black panther.

"What's wrong with you treating me as a father!!!!"
