"What did you say?"

In the Hokage's office, the third generation of Hokage Ape Flying Sun, who had begun to show his old age, put down his pipe and looked down at the dark part of the desk that was kneeling on one knee behind the desk.

Just a few minutes ago, he got the surprise news that Naruto Naruto, the Nine-Tails, had entered the hospital.

"Hey! Lord Sandaime, according to the report of the cow ghost of today's monitoring group, not long ago in the early morning, Ren Zhuli suddenly rushed out of the house in a panic and went to Konoha Hospital. "The team leader of the human pillar force monitoring team, this dark department repeats the report just now.

Then the shadow man said, "The sudden abnormal actions of the human pillar force attracted the attention of the bull ghost, and he submitted a report to me through the ninja eagle, and I continued to monitor the target. ”

After hearing this, the three generations leaned back on the back of the chair, closed their eyes slightly and pondered for a moment, and then said, "I know, I've worked hard for you, go down." ”

Dark: "Hey! ”

The dark man did not disappear into the room after agreeing, leaving only the three generations who smoked a pipe.

"Naruto......"

Under the smoke, the old man sighed softly, his eyes couldn't help but look at the photo of the four generations of Hokage on the wall, looking at the sunny blonde young man, the old man's eyes revealed complex emotions, as if he was nostalgic, as if he was guilty.

"Bang bang."

After smoking a bag of cigarettes, Miyome tapped his pipe on the ashtray, stood up, and walked towards the door.

He decided to go and see Naruto's situation, after all, the people of the village are pillars, and they are the children of the fourth generation, as the shadow of the village, then they can't let it go anyway.

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Naruto in a while, almost three months?" While muttering softly to himself, Miyome opened the door and walked out.

……

Konoha Hospital, inside the doctor's office.

"You said Naruto became mute?"

The third generation of people who came to the hospital sat in the chair that originally belonged to the attending doctor, and asked with a frown.

The relaxed mood when he came over suddenly disappeared, and the old man asked the attending physician who was standing there with a somewhat ugly face at the moment.

Miyome originally thought that Naruto was just a small problem with a stomach or a cold, but who knew that when he arrived at the hospital, he heard that Naruto had been hospitalized, and when he came to the doctor's office, he heard an answer that made him unbelievable.

"Yes...... Yes, Hokage-sama, based on my consultation with the other two colleagues, we all tentatively agreed that the child was suffering from psychotic aphasia. "Maybe the aura of the third generation is too strong," the attending doctor said with some nervous swallowing.

But even though he was a little nervous, the doctor gave the diagnosis with considerable certainty.

"Psychogenic aphasia? What does this mean? Miyome asked, and at the same time, maybe the news was too much for him to expect, he subconsciously took out his pipe, forgetting that this was a hospital.

"That's right, Hokage-sama." The attending physician did not remind Miyome that smoking is prohibited, but began to introduce Naruto's condition.

He took out the X-ray and continued: "This is a relatively common mental stress reaction, also known as dissociative conversion disorder, which usually occurs when the patient has received a certain mental shock, according to the accumulation of emotions such as anger, sadness, anxiety, shock, fear, etc., which is manifested as symptoms including but not limited to difficulty in vocalization, small voice and so on. ”

Saying that, the doctor pointed to the X-ray and continued: "Since the cause of this disease is psychological, the patient's airway and vocal cords are intact, as we can see in this film, which is why we judge it as mental aphasia. ”

If Naruto was present at this moment, I am afraid that he would give this doctor two thumbs up, this doctor's introduction perfectly met his expectations, and he can really be described as a good teammate in China.

"Is that so......" Here, roughly understanding the doctor's introduction, the frowning brows of the third generation relaxed slightly.

At least he knew that there was no problem with the body of the human pillar force, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, as for the mental problem, this third generation did not take it too seriously, he had seen too many human pillar forces in his long life, and it was rare for him to be completely healthy in his heart.

As long as it doesn't get to the point where he has to change the strength of the human pillar, he can accept it.

"So Naruto's body is healthy, so how long will he be able to speak normally? Is there anything you can do? Taking a deep puff of his pipe, Miyome asked the attending doctor.

Although not being able to speak is not a huge impact on a ninja, especially a human pillar force, after all, Naruto is also the son of the fourth generation, and the old man still hopes that he can grow up as a normal person.

"This ...... At present, this disease is mainly treated by psychological suggestion and a small amount of medicine, as for the recovery time, I think it mainly depends on the child himself, but I think it will not be too long. The attending doctor paused and said truthfully.

To be honest, this kind of illness is also more tricky for doctors, because it is not a physical trauma, and it cannot be directly reached through surgery or medication, but this doctor is still relatively optimistic about Naruto's condition, because this kind of mental aphasia is rarely permanent in his experience, especially when the patient is still young, and with growth and continuous contact with the things of the world, the possibility of healing is very high.

"Well, it's good, it's hard work, Naruto will ask you later, don't be stingy with medicine, and the village will be responsible for his treatment fees. Okay, where is Naruto? I'm going to see him. Hearing this, the three generations nodded, stood up and said.

He was going to comfort Naruto and see the situation by the way.

"Don't worry, Hokage-sama, we will do our best to help this child recover." Faced with the Hokage's plea, the doctor replied flatteredly.

Later, he wanted to directly help the Hokage lead the way, but he was politely rejected by the third generation, so he told the third generation which ward Naruto was in.

"Cow ghost."

Miyome who came out of the doctor's office shouted softly as he walked unhurriedly to Naruto's hospital room.

"The subordinates are here, Lord Miyome."

Suddenly, almost as soon as the words of the third generation fell, a person wearing the face of a bull ghost suddenly appeared behind the third generation, half-kneeling and replied.

"Were you looking at Naruto yesterday too?" The footsteps of the three generations did not stop at all, and they still walked unhurriedly, and asked at the same time.

As a ninja, especially the shadow of Ichimura, this old man would not believe only one side of the story at any time, and even if he learned the general situation from the mouth of the doctor at Konoha Hospital, he still needed more details, which was also his habit all along.

"Yes, Hokage-sama, ...... yesterday" Hearing this, the shadow cow ghost began to introduce Naruto's itinerary and what happened yesterday to the three generations.

The dark minister's narration was like a video recorder without the slightest emotion, reporting to Miyome everything that Naruto had done yesterday.

"Is that so......"

When he learned what happened to Naruto from the cow ghost, the three generations of eyes paused slightly, first frowned, and then sighed helplessly as if he thought of something, continued to walk towards Naruto's hospital room, and instructed the cow ghost behind him: "Come here today, go and tell Iruka that I will see him in the office in an hour." ”

Cow Ghost: "Hey! ”

The shadow said yes and disappeared.

And the third generation had already arrived at the door of Naruto's hospital room at this time.

Through the door, Miyome saw little Naruto sitting on the hospital bed with a sad face at the moment, the hospital gown and the lonely figure made him feel inexplicable, but he immediately changed his face to the same kind smile as always, opened the door and walked in.

"Naruto, I heard you're sick."
