Chapter 30: The Cold Bench
"Hey—do you like me?"
Just as Su Zeying's laughing voice came into the ears of Hotaru Uchiha with the converging air, in just an instant, her jade-like face was already red.
It's like changing from pure white and flawless Hetian jade to red blood jade, Hotaru's face is steaming with clouds, and the focus in his eyes can't be concentrated, it looks like his IQ has dropped by fifty in an instant.
“……”
Gritting his teeth gently, his white teeth biting his lower lip, as if he had made up his mind, Hotaru suddenly turned his head, looked directly at him with an awe-inspiring momentum that Su Zeying didn't expect, and said firmly:
"That's right...... I'm just - my favorite movie! ”
This time it was Su Zeying's turn to be caught off guard. He "uh" and "ah" for most of the day, but in the end, he only spread his hand with a wry smile and said in the sun:
"Hey-Hotaru, this is the second day we've met, have you liked me so quickly?"
"No—I didn't like you the next day, I already liked you yesterday afternoon, when you fought that guy from Sasuke!"
The let go of Hotaru smiled innocently but boldly, her face was still red, but she bravely looked directly at Su Zeying, and the fiery emotion in her eyes made Su Zeying, a single dog who had been emotionally abused in her previous life, feel both happy and ashamed.
Long.
- Su Zeying sighed, but her eyes were still calm.
He reached out and rubbed Hotaru's hair, the silky touch made him want to rub it, but he resisted the urge at last.
Su Zeying looked at Firefly solemnly, and after being "touched and killed" by Su Zeying, her face turned even redder.
"Firefly ......"
Su Zeying scratched her head and smiled bitterly again:
“…… I like you, though—but I don't think it's yours. I can't respond to your feelings right now. ”
"Why?!"
Hotaru pursed her lips.
Su Zeying opened her mouth, and asked with a smile in her heart: Why? Because of what, don't you have a little bit in mind? Children, you are still in the first and second grades of elementary school on earth! Even if this world has the inexplicable power of chakra, even teenagers can save the world, but you are so affectionate and loving now, it's really confusing! After all, my heart is an adult with normal three views! Unless I'm a beast, how can I do it?!
Roaring in his heart, Su Zeying's face twitched slightly, he suppressed his crazy desire to complain, nodded, and said to Hotaru:
"Because...... You're too small now. ”
Su Zeying rubbed her hair again, and said with a smile:
"When you grow up and mature, let's talk about whether you like it or not!"
After speaking, Su Zeying turned around and left. He was afraid that if he delayed any longer, he would be unable to resist rubbing Hotaru's hair again.
And right behind him, Hotaru hurriedly asked:
"Small? Will you like me when I grow up? ”
"We'll talk about it then!"
Su Zeying waved his hand without looking back, and said calmly.
Hotaru pursed her lips as she listened to the perfunctory words, but the flush on her face had receded a little.
She looked at the figure in front of her—the one who walked calmly, who already looked like a teenager, smiled, and hurried after him.
A group of four people—Naruto, Hinata, Su Zeying, and Hotaru, walked to the class back and forth.
……
Undoubtedly, when the four of them walked into the classroom together, they received a strong gaze.
Most of the students' eyes were focused on Su Zeying. It is the nature of children to admire and worship the strong. Su Zeying's strength yesterday surpassed all the students present, and she was respected by most of the children.
- In the face of everyone's admiring gaze, Naruto puffed up his chest unconcernedly, and accepted it with a playful smile and a high head as if it were his own glory. Hinata cowered behind him, blushing.
Su Zeying walked calmly, and Uchiha Hotaru deliberately turned his face away from him, but the flush on his face had not yet subsided.
They eventually sat back in their seats.
- and then waited until Su Zeying sat down, and a pair of eyes looked over.
Sasuke Uchiha looked at him with some breathlessness, and Su Ze returned with a look of ease. The two looked at each other.
In an instant, Sasuke gritted his teeth, almost half of the classroom, and shouted loudly to Su Zeying:
"Ying-I will defeat you, and I will challenge you in every actual combat training of physical arts classes in the future!"
"Oh...... I'm looking forward to it. ”
Su Zeying shrugged and said with a teasing smile.
……
Classes will start soon.
Probably because of the lack of teachers in the ninja school, there is basically only one ninja teacher in each class, who is responsible for all the courses of all students in the class - from the cultivation of chakra, the explanation of ninjutsu principles, and the teaching of three-body arts; And then to the teaching of physical arts, the method of sealing, and even the history of Konoha and the history of the ninja world, all have to be managed by this teacher.
Although Su Zeying was extremely disdainful of this low-level curriculum in his heart, and he was a little speechless after the simple graduation assessment of the team ninja school after he had undergone strict exam-oriented education and training, but for this world, it is already extremely rare to have such a school to train ninjas.
- You know, the ninja school in Konoha Village is the first ninja school in the world, and the rest, what sand and fog are hidden, are basically all based on the ninja school in Konoha Hidden Village as a benchmark, imitating it to set up courses and teachers, and because of the backward economic level, or the closed mind, the level of the school in the village is even far lower than the ninja school in Konoha Village!
"Honestly...... Even if all the powerhouses above the shadow level in this world are removed, and the existence of bugs like the crown prince and the second pillar is eliminated, in the future, Konoha Hidden Village is likely to become the leader of this ninja world, and it is even possible to unify the world and forge a great cause like Bismarck's unification of Germany...... Because education in this world is so backward! Even if Konoha's ninja school is enough for rookies, the basic education of other schools is not even as good as rookies! ”
"Judging from the level of education alone, it is no accident that Konoha Hidden Village is strong in the ninja world!"
Su Zeying listened to Iruka's conscientious lecture on the podium, his face seemed to be covered with a layer of human brilliance, whether it was the passion revealed in every sentence or every body movement, all showed his love for the job of a teacher. In the previous life, this is a good teacher who has to be rated every year with a series of titles such as excellent teacher/favorite teacher in the hearts of students/special excellent teacher.
However, listening to Iruka explain the basic knowledge that he already knew very well, he was reborn in a lifetime, and he has a special perception and memory, and his accumulation of these knowledge far exceeds that of his peers, so Su Zeying's current feeling is like those who won the national mathematics Olympiad gold medal in his previous life but were still forced to sit on a chair and listen to liberal arts high school mathematics......
It's like sitting on pins and needles!
Su Zeying turned her head to look at the clouds outside the window, thinking stupidly:
How did you come to the ninja world, but you still have to experience this kind of learning life outside the wandering things sitting on the cold bench?
