Morning.

Tsunade convened a meeting, and all the shinobi who remained in Konoha participated, including the two advisors who no longer had real power: Koharu Zhuan and Mito Menyan.

At this point, everyone has to work hard to win the war in Konoha, as long as they don't give them real power, it's good to let them make suggestions on the side.

The meeting was held smoothly.

After that, Tsunade also gave a new order to the upper ninjas, and although the situation was not good, they still divided their men and did what they had to do.

"Red beans."

"Yes."

"You go and pick a few people to form a team, find Orochimaru, and monitor the other party's every move, and report to me immediately if you find any problems."

"Yes."

Mitarai Azuki answered, and Tsunade turned his gaze to another person.

"Haiyi."

"Yes."

"No matter what method is used, establish direct communication with the front-line troops as soon as possible, and the village will give priority to supplying you with all the necessary manpower and materials."

"Yes."

Yamanaka Hai nodded a little.

To be honest, it was difficult to set up a real-time communication network, but it was also necessary to be able to communicate Tsunade's combat orders more quickly.

For example, this time, if you can communicate in time, the relationship between Konoha and Shayin will not evolve into the current situation, and the matter can be investigated quickly.

"That's right."

Tsunade seemed to remember something, looked at Yamanaka Kaichi and added.

"You can go to the coffee shop owner, maybe he'll have something to do."

“？”

Hearing this, Yamanaka was stunned for a moment, and nodded directly after reacting.

"Yes!"

"So ......"

No nonsense, Tsunade continued to assign tasks to the upper ninja.

……

Midday.

Kaichi Yamanaka came to the coffee shop.

"Ding."

Every time I pushed the door open, there was a crisp bell sound, and the next second, it was a more pleasant girlish voice.

"Welcome."

“？”

The voice sounds familiar.

Look at the past.

Only then did I find out that it was his daughter, a daughter who was different from usual, wearing a maid outfit and a sweet smile on her face, which is rarely seen in ordinary times.

"Daddy."

Finding out that it was his father, Yamanaka Ino was also a little surprised, after all, her father was a shinobi, and he should be very busy now, how could he have time to come here?

"What about Qingmingjun?"

"Oh."

Hearing the inquiry, Yamanaka Ino reacted.

"Upstairs."

After speaking, he looked at his father with some curiosity.

"Dad, what are you looking for the shopkeeper to do?"

"Something, you can help me get him down."

"Oh."

Nodding.

didn't say much, Yamanaka Ino just wanted to let Tian Tian or Hinata Hinata go up to inform Qingming, and if he didn't allow it, he was generally not allowed to go up to the third floor.

But after thinking about it, he had the courage to walk towards the stairs by himself, and Tian Tian and Hinata didn't care about her, and Tian Tian came directly to greet Yamanaka Haiichi.

He sat down in his position and looked at the stairs again, frowning slightly.

His daughter......

All right.

Anyway, I've been working here since I was a child, and I don't think there's anything, I've long been used to it, and the problem is Yamanaka Ino's feelings for Qingming.

I've talked about it a few times before, but I didn't get an answer every time, and in the end it just didn't work, and it was just a girl Sichun, and he didn't care too much.

But not right now.

Although it has not been explicitly announced, the matter between Kiyoshi and Hinata Hinata, as many people know, will definitely be put together if there is no accident.

And then every day.

In addition, Qingming and Hinata Natsu have an unclear relationship, and most ninjas in Konoha feel that the relationship between the two of them is not so simple.

No matter how you think about it, it seems that Yamanaka Ino should not be involved, but fortunately, his daughter's obsession with Qingming has not yet reached the point of irreversibility.

Maybe there will be salvation.

But......

"Now is not the time to think about that!"

He sighed.

In the current situation that Konoha is facing, the odds of being able to win are pitifully small, and this time is different from before, in case of defeat, Konoha is estimated to be destroyed.

At that time, Konoha estimates that the vast majority of ninjas will die in battle, and even if they are lucky enough not to die, they can only go away incognito, facing endless pursuit.

He didn't want his daughter to face that situation.

Therefore, as long as Qingming can protect his daughter, as long as his daughter is happy, other things don't seem to matter, but I don't know Qingming's attitude.

……

Upstairs.

With a little apprehension, Yamanaka Ino walked to the third floor and looked around, there was a slightly empty hall, in addition to a bedroom and a study.

Very simple layout.

"The shopkeeper."

It's working time at this time, so you have to use this slightly formal name, and if you want to change it to usual, you can also call "Brother Qingming" like Hinata Hanabi.

The cries were not answered.

I looked at it.

The bedroom door was locked, the door of the study was open, and there seemed to be some movement faintly, and after thinking about it, I walked directly towards the study.

Stop at the door.

"The shopkeeper."

He screamed again, leaned out halfway over, and scanned the study with some curiosity, which was almost full of shelves and books.

No human figure can be seen.

"Shop ......"

"Come in."

As soon as she wanted to scream, Qingming's voice came from inside, and it seemed that it was indeed inside.

Walk in.

Walking through the gap between the bookshelves that only one person could pass through, he soon came to the other side of the bookshelf, where Qingming was here, writing something on a piece of paper.

She didn't bother, just stood aside and watched, it seemed that the drawings of something she couldn't understand, so she put her eyes on Qingming's body.

He's serious......

It's weird.

The number of times Qingming is serious can be counted without one hand, and if you think about it carefully, it seems that no matter what he does, he is all absent-minded.

If you think about it from another angle, the world is really unfair.

Some people can succeed and do well by doing just that; Some people, no matter how hard they try, can't do well, and they are far from success.

Qingming is the former.

Latter......

When I went outside and looked at it, almost all of them were working hard for their ideals and dreams, but few succeeded.

Then I was gradually smoothed out by life, and began to worry about firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, compromising with life and compromising with my other self deep in my heart.

Life is all about compromise.

Otherwise, you can only hit your head and break the bloodstream.

"Give."

Qingming quickly finished his work, picked up the piece of paper and handed it to her, Yamanaka Ino took it a little confused, his face full of doubts.

"This ......"

"Take it to your father, and he'll understand."

"Oh."

Nodding as if he didn't understand, he took the drawing and looked at it carefully for a while, but he still couldn't understand it, and after looking at Qingming, he found that he was starting to write something again.

Without bothering, he bent down slightly and turned away.

……

Ground floor.

Yamanaka Kaichi was still thinking about Qingming and his daughter, and before he could come up with a reason, he found that Yamanaka Ino had come down, but he didn't see Qing.

"Daddy."

Yamanaka Ino walked up to him, and without waiting for him to ask, he directly handed over the drawings in his hand.

"The shopkeeper asked me to give it to you."

"Huh?"

Frowning slightly, he took the drawing and looked at it, and soon stood up with some surprise, and didn't say anything, and hurriedly walked towards the door and left.
