Chapter 183: Back to the village

As a result, did he die laughing in the end?

Arrogant guys!

~~~~~~

When, from when.

Everyone who is seen through by these eyes will usher in death.

That was the fate of being killed by me.

It's a pair of cursed eyes, and I already know it.

~~~~~~

The sunset, the night, the dawn, before you know it, the day passes.

Because I have a reserve of food pills, I don't need to waste time collecting food, all the time is spent repairing my body.

Even so, when I regained enough strength to exercise again it was in the middle of the afternoon of the next day.

~~~~~~

Left.

I couldn't stay any longer, and reason urged my body to act.

Nothing is safe enough for a wounded ninja to stay long, and the thought that I want to leave is like a reminder in my mind.

~~~~~~

Behind him is a cave that is gradually collapsing.

The small cave is powerless to accept the stones and dust that flood from all directions, under the interference of natural forces.

There's no need to look back, I know.

In the end, everything will be completely annihilated without leaving a trace of space!

~~~~~~

The body is heavier than expected.

The journey was much slower than expected, and the risk of subsequent outbreaks was more serious than the immediate injuries?

Facing this body, it was a desolate sight that only my eyes saw, could I go back alive?

I began to think seriously about reality.

~~~~~~

It's the third day of departure.

The sudden rainstorm completely cut me off the idea of moving on, and I huddled in the damp hollow of the tree, the burning fire seemed to lose its warmth, and for the first time I stretched out my palm to the tongue of fire to prove that I was alive.

Then, the palm that had burned the skin did not move from the flames until then.

~~~~~~

The state of my body is getting worse and worse, but until then, my deranged nerves will sink into death first.

The pupils of the eyes seem to be unable to see clearly, and the blurred scene is like a layer of fog, but what can be felt is not the problem of the optic nerves or even any part of the body.

Why? Medical ninjutsu lost its effectiveness as if it had been tested, and from that moment on, I didn't know, I didn't know the cause of many of the symptoms that appeared on my body.

~~~~~~

I knew the answer when I swallowed the green and bitter fruit next to the fruit tree I happened to pass by.

The dry eyeballs seemed to have been scrubbed by cold water, and then I saw and felt a brightness that I had never seen before.

I am hungry! My stomach was rumbling, but I still didn't hear it, my stomach was clearly telling about hunger, and the full feeling of satiety deceived me again and again.

I was hungry, and it was with the real fact that I had the feeling of being filled again and again with the Soldier Rations Pill.

~~~~~~

How long has it been? Am I dying?

Every moment of boredom is consumed in thinking about such questions.

Then, hallucinations appeared.

I can't tell if it's day or night, I just see it.

I saw a wooden door surrounded by mist, and a black figure approaching.

His eyes closed, and then the tense muscles of his body instantly softened when they were touched by a hand that was slightly hotter than his body temperature.

It's not a dream, it's not an illusion, it's reality.

At that moment, I finally returned to Konoha Village.

······

Mitarai's death is like an insignificant pebble falling into a lake, and the ripples stirred up are very faint, and when they dissipate, they are naturally very fast.

His parents should have cried bitterly when they heard the news of his death, and they might still be snuggling up to each other and supporting each other, so that they could barely let their bodies collapse to the ground all of a sudden.

Once, they were proud of their son as a ninja, and now, although they are sad, they will be proud, but the grief will always exceed the pride, and even if they receive a large amount of pension, they will not be able to heal the grief that will continue for the rest of the year.

This is the death of a ninja! Standing calmly in a corner, looking at everything from beginning to end, I may still sigh like this.

Obviously, my teammate died, but I was very calm, and my cold eyes seemed to say what I thought, I would regret his death, but I would not be sad because of it.

From the perspective of a bystander, I thought it would be good, it would be enough, but no!

I'm not a bystander!

When?

Two pairs of eyes, sad eyes before, desperate eyes before, the moment they saw me, the moment I was no longer just a bystander, everything changed in an instant.

"You killed him!"

That's when someone read out my charges.

"Why did you kill him?"

That's when someone interrogated me about the purpose of my crime.

"You give me death."

It was a verdict pronounced against me, and a trial began for me who had committed a crime.

Facing the eyes full of revenge, the winter night inexplicably felt a trace of dryness, but his expression was still so calm, as if the death of the royal hand, the judgment of the crime at this moment was just a harmless joke for him.

"I'll kill him." His answer was succinct and forceful.

He confessed!

And then!

Wake up from a dream!

······

When I woke up from the dream, I opened my eyes very plainly, and there was no tragedy of having a nightmare and pulling the quilt excitedly, and finally falling out of bed in a hurry.

"Awake?"

A woman's voice, the first thing you will hear when you wake up, can basically only be a person's.

"Hmm."

The weakened body stiffened its upper body, and as the field of vision rose, it looked at the figure that he had speculated in his heart.

"What are you doing?"

Although she is a person I know in my impression, I am still curious about what she is doing now?

"Dice, do you want to play?"

"By the way, you should be rich."

It turned out to be the dice cup that she had been shaking up and down, left and right since just now.

I was woken up from my sleep, and what was still buzzing in my ears at the moment was the sound of the dice crashing.

"Is that good?"

"What?"

Is it really good to play dice in the hospital? Winter Night, who smiled bitterly, wanted to convey such a meaning, but when such a thought realized the status of the woman in front of him for a medical ninja, he was left with helpless depression.

"Nothing."

"Are you going to play?"

"No, I don't have any money."

"Then forget it."

Interested, she really learned the necessary information of [No Money], and her shining eyes had to dim.

"And then."

"What happened this time?"

Reluctantly, she packed up the gambling equipment and asked very common questions.

"Kill a shinobi."

"Really?"

"Yes."

"That's good."

After she said this, she stood up, was she going to leave?

Her back stretched all the way to the door of the ward, and when she was about to close the door completely with her backhand, she suddenly paused.

"Someone wants to meet you later."

Matched with the sound of the sliding door hitting the frame, she left such a sentence.

~~~~~~

The second hand is constantly beating, and the clock is rhythmic and monotonous because of the silence.

"I know."

It took a long time for the reflex arc to lengthen before he answered.
