Chapter 54: Business as usual
Konoha Village.
Qingming and Bai are back here.
Kakashi and the others are still on a mission, and they won't be able to come back until the bridge in the country of waves is built, but it won't be long, as fast as a few days or as slow as a month.
Hokage Building.
After coming here for so many years, it is the first time that Qingming has come here, and it is also the first time that he has seen the legendary ninja of the three generations of Hokage in the Hokage's office.
First meeting.
One is a young man in his prime, and the other is an old man in his twilight years, time is merciless, and I don't know if Qingming will have such a day.
That's not to mention for now.
The reason why I came here to meet the three generations of Hokage is because of the matter of Shiro, she is a ninja, and if she wants to settle down in Konoha, she must have the consent of the three generations of Hokage.
"Hmmm......"
The three generations of Hokage looked at the handwritten letter handed over to him by Kiyoshi and written by Kakashi, and this letter wrote in great detail about what happened this time, so he could learn a lot.
After thinking about it, I made a decision in my heart.
"Yes."
He nodded, indicating that Shiro could settle in Konoha on the one hand, on the one hand, because Kakashi vouched for it, and on the other hand, because of Kiyoshi himself.
Although it's just speculation.
But Qingming is likely to be "that boy", a very powerful person, and now selling Qingming a favor may bring more benefits to Konoha.
Even if he wasn't.
But having a medicine that can make a master of the upper ninja level weak in a very short period of time, Qingming is also worth wooing, so this kind of trivial matter doesn't need to be thought about.
Soon the proof was opened and handed over to Shiro.
"Thank you, Hokage-sama."
Thank you.
Immediately with Qingming, he chatted with the three generations of Hokage, and then said goodbye and left, without saying anything superfluous.
……
Coffee shop.
Qingming returned here with Bai.
As always, there weren't many customers in the store, so Hinata Natsu was also relatively leisurely, and when she heard the voice, she came over and found that it was Qingming, and she only saluted slightly.
"The shopkeeper."
Say hello.
Then he didn't say anything, just looked at Bai who was following Qingming a little suspiciously, and found that Bai came with Qingming, so he didn't say hello.
Work directly in the back kitchen.
"Asha."
Qingming was very dissatisfied with her performance, and there was an unhappy expression on his face.
"Don't you give me a hug when you meet again after a long absence? And you won't get pregnant. ”
“……”
Hinata Xia didn't answer, she just hid in the kitchen in the back, as if everything about Qingming had nothing to do with her, and she didn't wait to see Qingming much.
In this regard, Qingming could only shrug his shoulders and express helplessness.
He looked at Bai again.
"From now on, you'll live here, there is only one room on the third floor, you can either sleep with me, or just find a random place to lay on the floor, there is no other choice."
"Yes."
Bai answered.
Of course, she won't choose to sleep with Qingming, what to do and what not to do, she still understands, and has always understood how to better protect herself.
Qingming remembered something again.
"Oh, by the way, I don't have any extra quilts here."
“……”
……
Afternoon.
Hinata Hanabi came here after school.
"Brother Qingming."
Seeing Qingming sitting at the counter, he was a little surprised, and he left and came back suddenly, and he didn't say anything to her, although it didn't seem necessary to tell her.
I saw white, too.
At this time, Shiro had already changed into a maid costume and followed Hinata Natsu to learn how to entertain guests.
The new maid?
Hinata Hanabi was thoughtful.
Qingming, on the other hand, changed his smile and beckoned to her.
"Little Hanabi, come here."
"Yes."
She answered.
looked at Shiro, who was with Hinata Natsu, and walked towards the counter again, went around to the counter, stood beside Qingming, and looked at the books on the table.
Luckily, it's not an intimate paradise.
"Hands."
Qingming said.
Hearing this, Hinata Hanabi stretched out her right hand, Qingming grabbed her little hand to check her pulse, and after touching it for a long time, it seemed that she had gained something.
"Well, that's good."
Nodding.
He patted his legs again, and let Hinata Hanabi sit on it, with his back to him, and he just hugged the little girl, feeling like he was taking advantage of the little girl.
But it doesn't matter.
"I got something good when I went out this time, I originally wanted to make something, but the material was not very good, so I changed it to medicine and made some new medicines."
Qingming said so.
It looked like her husband, who had been away from home for a long time, was reporting to his little wife about his situation outside, which made Hinata Natsu over there frown.
So Qingming, this damn Lolitaon.。
"Humph!"
Snorted.
But he didn't say much, and continued to point out all kinds of knowledge, but most of his attention was on Qingming and Hinata's fireworks to prevent Qingming from messing around with the little girl.
Qingming didn't want to mess around.
He's just chatting with Hinata Hanabi, talking about this and that, and it doesn't seem to be a big point, but two people, one big and one small, are chatting happily.
Margin.
Wonderful.
……
Ninja world.
Still safe and sound.
Konoha Village.
It still seems so peaceful, but the fact that Kakashiban is outside and doesn't kill it anymore has caused a lot of discussion after it was reported back to Konoha.
But it's nothing.
A few days later.
Kakashi and the others returned to Konoha after the mission and handed in the mission report, and Kakashi was left behind by the three generations of Hokage to ask about Kiyoshi.
"Qingming-kun?"
Kakashi was a little puzzled by this.
When I went out, I got together, which was purely accidental, and Qingming left first to look for medicinal herbs halfway through, and then was caught by Bai as a hostage for some reason.
That's what Kakashi knew.
Then, the three generations of Hokage provided him with a piece of information, an information about the Star Hidden Ninja Village, which was related to the Star Hidden Village, and also related to "that boy".
"Huh?"
This time, Kakashi frowned as well.
"Three generations of adults, you think this is too much of a coincidence, don't you?"
What a coincidence.
And not once.
In the past, Qingming also left Konoha for about two months, and "that boy" appeared in that short time, only three times, in the three ninja villages.
This time, it's so coincidental.
Not long after Qingming left Konoha Village, the young man appeared in the Star Hidden Ninja Village again, snatched the "star", and beat the entire village Star Hidden Ninja by the way.
"Don't you think so?"
The three generations of Hokage asked rhetorically.
Kakashi didn't say anything about this, because if you look at it together, it's really too coincidental, and that boy appeared after Qingming left Konoha.
Qingming is that teenager?
"Impossible."
Kakashi said he couldn't believe it.
I have always thought that Qingming is just an ordinary person, after all, there is no trace of Chakra's existence on his body, and I have not seen him train or anything.
And he was also taken hostage by Bai He again.
"Huh?"
Speaking of this, Kakashi suddenly remembered that at that time, Kiyoshi seemed to be too calm, too calm, and did not look worried at all.
Although he has that drug.
But even if there is, it should also take into account the possibility that it may not be effective against the upper ninja, or the effect is not so good, so that the other party will detect it and kill him.
However, Qingming didn't seem to be worried about this, he was very confident in himself, and this confidence may come from the medicine in his hand, or maybe from his strength.
When you think about it this way, some things seem to make sense.
"But ......"
Kakashi was still a little unconvinced.
In this regard, the three generations of Hokage didn't say much, just waved their hands.
"Alright."
He spoke.
"Whether he is or not, over the years, it can also show that he has no ill will towards us Konoha, so there is no need to worry too much, and you should not make a noise about this matter."
"Hmm."
Kakashi nodded.
Come to think of it, there is no evidence to prove that Qingming is the boy, and of course there is no need to prove this, so just keep everything as usual.
