Chapter 17: The Silent Night

When there are many thoughts, the ape will usually take a puff of smoke.

The old man lifted his pipe.

The slightest movement caused the looming sparks hidden at the end of the pipe to be completely annihilated, and the black ashes shook to the ground.

Out of smoke?

The old man habitually reached out and touched the cigarette pouch, and only then did he realize that there was no longer a trace of tobacco in the bag.

"Iruka, bring me a pack of shredded tobacco and put it on top of the cabinet in the third cabinet." Ape Fei Sun commanded.

Iruka listened and sneered, "That...... Your Excellency, you have run out of tobacco today. ”

Ape Feiri was stunned for a moment, and then his face was full of anger, and he shouted, "What amount of tobacco?" Who prescribes! ”

"This ......" Iruka smiled, stumbling.

Just when the good old man Iruka was in a dilemma, a pretended harsh sentence suddenly came from outside the house.

"β€”I prescribed it."

While speaking, a middle-aged uncle with a scumbag face leaned on crutches, leaned his body slightly against the door of the temporary office, pushed hard, and ...... unceremoniously Walked in.

"Nonsense!" Ape Feiri clasped his pipe on the table and scolded: "You don't heal in the hospital, what are you doing when you run out!" ”

Asma disagreed, pouted and retorted: "I've been lying in the hospital bed for more than half a month, and my buttocks are about to get sores, and if I don't come out and walk around, I'm really going to rust." ”

"Humph!" Ape Fei Sun snorted softly, and there was no blame on his face.

In fact, how can a father blame his child for being seriously injured?

The old man was just distressed.

"You got me a tobacco?" Sarutobi slashed his anger and shouted, "You have the guts to set the rules for the Hokage, do you!" ”

Iruka stood aside, her throat shaking, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Shouldn't I take the first step while no one is looking? Iruka thought to herself.

But the next scene was not as tense as he imagined.

In the face of Hokage's questioning, Asma just waved casually, and said lightly, "Don't button me such a big hat." Your own body knows better than I do that smoking is harmful to your health, and you give you a limited amount of tobacco, at least for your health, and at worst, for the future of the whole villageβ€”not to mention, it's just a reasonable daily life advice from an older unmarried young man to his stubborn father. ”

"Hehe......" Ape Feiri sneered: "You also know that you are old and unmarried?" ”

Asma twitched the corners of her mouth, and speechlessly propped up her crutches in her armpits, then took out a cigarette and a lighter from her bosom, and lit a cigarette for herself.

"I'm old and unmarried, didn't I learn from your old man." He replied with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Nonsense!" Ape Fei Ri tapped the table with his fingers, and said, "Over the years, I have made an appointment for you on a blind date, which time did you go on time?" Every time you let a girl wait for you, can't you honestly marry me a daughter-in-law and come back?! ”

"Cut ......"

Asma said disdainfully: "You are embarrassed to say, what kind of things did you introduce to me, if it weren't for the princess of the Daimyo's Mansion, or the daughter of the minister's family, what kind of virtue these women are I can see clearly when I was a guard in the Daimyo's Mansion, and even if they are pampered, the most terrible thing is that they also like to shoot layers of rouge gouache on their faces, making their faces muddy and white, and when they are finished, they will also decorate a little pig's blood lip gloss on their mouths, and make a cherry mouth, This kind of combination is like a female ghost......"

"You know what!" Ape Fei Ri shouted, "That's the makeup of the nobility, and ordinary women can't paint like this!" What's wrong with girls wearing makeup? You're a guy who doesn't know how to sympathize with girls at all, and you'll be able to get the hearts of girls in the future! ”

"The devil wants to get the hearts of those noble women! Lao Tzu is an ape flying Asma! It's not uncommon to have something that is not aristocratic or noble! Asma looked excited, and suddenly threw the cigarette on her father's desk, "Aren't you going to smoke?" Smoke it! Let you see the charm of Panda brand cigarettes! ”

Ape Feiri slashed his eyebrows and reprimanded: "The old man doesn't smoke this kind of soft strange smoke!" In front of the spicy and delicious traditional dry tobacco, this strip of paper is shit like shit! ”

"Nani?! You stinky old man dare to say that my beloved Panda brand cigarettes are shit?! Asma bit the cigarette butt, spit out a big smoke ring from his mouth, and said haughtily, "Let you see what true justice is!" ”

Sarutobi sneered and sneered, "It's really playing fire in front of the 'Uchiha'!" Naive guys! I'll let you see what ginger is or old spicy today! ”

The old man immediately took a puff of his pipe.

Ash that would have been extinguished...... It burned again......

A flash of red fire appeared in front of Ape Fei and his son.

When the ape Fei Sun spat out, it was an even bigger smoke ring.

Nicotine that kills people makes up smoke, and smoke that chokes the nose is circled.

In the silence of the night, in a small house in a remote place, there was an old man and an older unmarried young man who was still young and stared at each other.

There are two smoke rings in the house.

The big circle slowly buckled towards the small circle, just like many years ago, the adult, who was also still young, slowly stretched out a rough hand that had been through the calamity, and grabbed the naughty and immature little hand.

Time has passed countless sunrises and sunsets, condensed to the present, and created countless things and people.

Apart from...... The father and son.

Iruka shook her head, a smile on her face.

Such a result is not unexpected.

Asma is a clumsy man after all, and a gentle and somewhat annoying fellow.

At that moment, a thought popped into Iruka's mind.

It's nice to have a father.

It's nice to have a son.

He quietly opened the door and left softly.

Walking through the long boardwalk, the lonely figure broke away from the warmth of the house and was exposed to a waning moon.

The moonlight is naturally beautiful, but under the influence of some powerful energy fluctuations before, the moonlight also spreads out, and it looks very vast.

Iruka touched the bridge of her nose, which had been injured and scabbed over for many years, and looked at the village that had already become a scale, and felt a little happy in her heart.

He selectively ignored the culprit who destroyed the village, unwilling to think of his best friend.

When I walked to Area C, there was a small lake in a relatively secluded place.

I remember that this place was originally the fiefdom of the Uchiha family, and since the fall of the Uchiha family, it has been opened as a tourist attraction for the villagers.

But because of taboos, fears, or other reasons, few people come.

In the middle of the night, Iruka, who was passing by after finishing work, saw a familiar figure.

It was a handsome young man dressed in blue, standing straight on the shore of the lake.

"Fire Escape: Hao Fireball Technique!" The boy roared, his fingertips twisted, quickly sealed, and spewed out a large fireball about one and a half meters wide in the direction of the lake.

When the fire shines, the surface of the lake boils, and large steam bubbles up.

Two or three seconds later, the fireball was extinguished.

"Sasuke?" Iruka called softly.

"Who!" Uchiha Sasuke, like a fried cat, immediately turned around and made defensive moves.

"Ahaha, it's me." Iruka smiled and stepped forward.

Uchiha Sasuke gradually saw Iruka's appearance clearly, hesitated for a moment, and then let down his defense, and asked, "Iruka-sensei, why are you here?" ”

"Well, haha, I've just gotten off work right now." Iruka explained.

"Oh."

After Sasuke Uchiha finished speaking, he stopped talking.

This character is really a little cold.

Iruka touched the back of his head and took the initiative to ask, "Are you practicing the Howe Fireball technique?" ”

Isn't that obvious.

Sasuke sneered and replied, "Yes." I've been doing some boring D-class missions with that guy named Kakashi Hachiki lately, and I don't feel any improvement in my strength, so I can only ...... Practice it yourself. ”

"Kakashi-senpai, that's a great character." Iruka walked up to Sasuke and explained, "Although the D-class mission is a bit tedious and boring, it is an essential part of the cultivation for the lower shinobi. This is a way for ninjas to strengthen their patience and familiarize themselves with their physical fitness, and at the same time, because of the immediacy of low-level tasks, ninjas can get a proper reward as soon as possible. ”

Sasuke said coldly, "I'm not short of money-"

"Uh......"

Iruka smiled awkwardly.

"Well, since you're cultivating the Hao Fireball Technique, I also happen to know some tricks, why don't you launch another one to take a look?" Iruka wittily skipped the topic just now.

Sasuke said disapprehantly, "Does Iruka-sensei also know how to use fireballs?" ”

"It's not true, it's just that the teacher has a friend who has practiced the Hao Fireball technique well, and it just so happens that he also told me some methods." Iruka said.

"Is there a better way in this world to use the Howe Fireball Jutsu than the Uchiha?" Sasuke was a little dismissive.

Why is this bear kid talking so impulsively......

Iruka laughed, "Based on that guy's confident appearance, it shouldn't look like a lie." ”

Sasuke suddenly reacted and asked, "That friend of Iruka-sensei is the homeroom teacher of Class Ding, the guy named Mizuki?" ”

Iruka nodded helplessly.

Sasuke glanced at some of the newly built Konoha buildings and gritted his teeth and said, "He's really strong, but ...... I must surpass his. ”

"There can't be a better practice than the Uchiha." Sasuke turned around and turned his back to Iruka, "Iruka-sensei, I'd better practice by myself." ”

This bear child......

Iruka glanced helplessly at the back of the young man in blue.

"Then, don't practice for too long, remember to go back and rest early."

Iruka couldn't impress the stubborn teenager in front of him.

This annoying temper temper reminded him of a certain guy.

The one who is always preoccupied, but always faces everything with a hippie smile...... Annoying guy.

At one point, Iruka walked in the silence of the night, looking up into the distance.

Where the hell are you?

Bastard......
