"I want to go and see how the seniors are doing, are you going?"

Shisui changed out of his gray clothes and asked.

"No, I'll stay here."

Naruto replied without thinking.

"It's not interesting for you to stay by yourself, so let's go together, right? If you wake up, you'll be glad to see you. ”

Shisui folded the changed clothes on the stool, leaned over to the child and put his shoulder on his shoulder.

"What does it have to do with me whether he's happy or not?"

The child skimmed his head particularly mercilessly.

"Don't say that, it's okay to go and see."

The water stop did not give up.

Judging from the conversation just now, he felt that he couldn't leave the child alone now.

"You've asked me, and I've said I'm not going."

Naruto stepped forward and dodged his hand.

"Why don't we go with us, but how about you stay outside for a while? When we get back, we can buy something you like. ”

Zhishui did his best to 'coax' this child.

It's the same 'other people's child', but the ferret is much easier to coax than this...... Even Sasuke seems to be a lot better than him?

Stopping water is a bit of a headache.

“……”

The child did not reply, but put the cushion back into his master's arms, turned and walked briskly to the door.

Zhishui felt that he had agreed, and hurriedly followed.

After the child got downstairs from the building outside, he casually found a direction to walk, and Shisui thoughtfully pointed him out the direction of leaving the Uchiha clan, but the child just glanced at him and didn't squeak.

ㅤ

"Hey, it's not here, the hospital is-"

It's not good to stop the water, so I picked up the child who was obviously in a bad mood and walked away directly, just kept showing him the way, but the first part of the road was fine, and the child didn't listen to him after leaving the Uchiha.

"Who told you I was going to the hospital?"

Naruto interrupted him impatiently.

"Ahh So where are you going? ”

Zhishui was stunned.

"It's okay with you, I don't want to stay at your house anymore, you can do it yourself with the ones Kakashi gave you, and it's all up to you, I don't have to worry about it."

The child, who was in a really bad mood, stared at him emotionally for a few seconds after finishing speaking, then turned around and ran away without hesitation.

"Hey, wait a minute."

The water stop is very square, and he hurriedly turned over to stop the child.

- "You ——......"

"Get out of the way."

As Naruto spoke, a shallow dark chakra appeared on his body.

The Nine Lamas were happy to offer him a favor in this situation. ’

Shisui sensed the 'dangerous' aura, froze for two or three seconds, and then looked around like a thief - fortunately, it was no longer within the range of the Uchiha.

Naruto also noticed the 'small movements' of the Nine Lamas after saying that, but he calmed down a little.

…… Because he didn't want to 'get angry' and let the Nine Lamas take the initiative, although strictly speaking he didn't have the right to think so.

——“…… I want to stay on my own for a while, so please don't come with me, and please don't push me. ”

The child took a deep breath, bowed politely, and then bypassed the water and continued to run somewhere else.

This time, I didn't chase anymore, and I felt that my chest was very stuffy and short.

…… Anyway, let's go to the hospital and talk to Kakashi-senpai about them first.

Follow? Don't dare.

Stopping the water can bet that the child can't notice it, but it doesn't necessarily mean that the child who releases the chakra like that.

And he also said that he would not let himself follow.

Hopefully there won't be any problems...... 〗

It seems that this kid is still somewhat sane for the time being.

ㅤ

Naruto ran for a while, and ran into a forest that was far, far away and uninhabited.

Deep in the forest is a cliff with a wooden bridge that looks like it's about to break.

He sat on the ground with his back to the cliff.

'What's wrong with you?' ’

The voice of the Nine Lamas reached his head.

'Nothing. ’

He didn't believe it.

'You little devil is so hard to understand. ’

The Nine Lamas' expressions also became solemn.

I have to say that staying here is a relatively good life, much better than the previous generations and the life in the wild.

But what the Nine Lamas wanted to go back to was not this past.

…… There were some heartfelt worries, even if he didn't know why he was like that.

"Thank you so much."

Naruto shrunk his shoulders.

It's a bit cold over here.

'I'm not praising you!' ’

The Nine Lamas jumped out and stepped on him two little jio, and then nestled into his arms.

It should be regarded as a charity to give this child a little warmth.

“……”

Naruto's hand pinched the Nine Lama's fluffy belly, then rested his head on top of the canine's head, lowering his ears.

It's a little warmer.

'Why don't you want to go back?' ’

The Nine Lamas shook their ears.

"I shouldn't have gone back."

He knew it was not good to be negativity, but it was something he couldn't control.

‘……？ Why? ’

The Nine Lamas' eyes narrowed.

What is going on in the minds of human beings?

Naruto didn't want to answer him.

- 'To put that another way, do you want to stay here like this?' ’

The Nine Lamas patted his arm with a paw pad.

"Pretty much."

Naruto nodded.

'Never going back?' ’

The Nine Lamas wringed his skin with his claws.

"I do."

Naruto grabbed his claws and rubbed them.

The Nine Lamas were generously appointed.

"That's not good, you can't survive if you stay here, I won't help you first." ’

He narrowed his eyes.

"I think that's okay."

Naruto didn't really know what he was thinking about now.

Anyway, he thinks people are annoying right now.

The same goes for yourself.

He just wanted to stay and think about life for a while - the Nine Lamas could not be considered human.

‘……’

The nine lamas didn't know what to say.

ㅤ

"Senior, senior, you're awake."

By the time Shisui found Kakashi's room, Kakashi was already sitting up and eating an apple that he didn't know who had peeled him.

"Hmm...... It's just a little tired, but after a little rest, I feel better. ”

Kakashi handed him the apple in another plastic bag.

"Thank you, senior, but I won't ......"

Stop the water and wave your hand to refuse.

"Okay, then put it here first, you can eat it if you want, I tried it, no problem."

Kakashi put the bag back and continued to eat the sliced apples on the small plate.

"Ahaha......"

Stop the water and scratch your head again.

"By the way, how was Naruto doing with you?"

Kakashi forked another apple with a toothpick and put it in his mouth.

“…… It's, it's good."

Shisui was struggling with whether or not to tell Naruto's current Kakashi-senpai about him.

The senior needs to rest now, what if he feels worried about speaking out?
