At night.

Uchiha Itachi family.

Chiba was invited by Uchiha Itachi to eat together, and came to a patriarch's house that had been beaten by countless winds and rains, but still stood on the ground, with a wooden floor with traces of time, and the lights were dim, giving people a very warm feeling.

Uchiha Fugaku is rarely at home, and it is estimated that he is plotting a rebellion, and for the arrival of the Uchiha mentally retarded played by Chiba, the gentle and jade-like Uchiha Kotomi not only didn't mind, but said with a smile:

"Ash hasn't eaten with us for a long time, so I made you something delicious today."

"Oh?" As soon as he heard about eating, Chiba's eyes suddenly lit up, and he felt hungry, "What's that?"

Facing Chiba's curious gaze, Uchiha Mikoto came up with a plate.

This is a teriyaki saury.

Teriyaki, which is another way of grilling.

Suddenly, Chiba was attracted by the smell of teriyaki saury, and the faint fragrance came to the nose, very rich, with a fresh fragrance of lime, the smoked smell of barbecue, and the slightest hint of honey syrup.

"It smells so good!" Chiba said heartily.

Hearing this unpretentious compliment, Uchiha Mikoto's smile became even sweeter, and she said:

"Ash, let's have a try."

Seeing this, little Sasuke couldn't help but be jealous, opened his little arms and raised them, and said, "I want it too!" ”

"Don't worry, there's still one here!" Uchiha Mikoto said softly, and picked up another plate and gave it to Sasuke Ko.

Chiba looked at this teriyaki saury, which was cut twice to add more flavor, placed on a white porcelain plate, and painted with a small bridge and flowing water on the side as a decoration, and the fish was placed on it, and there was a sense of a picture of a fish jumping up from the sea.

There are no superfluous condiments, but there is a simple and natural fragrance.

Chiba's Adam's apple moved up and down, and finally swallowed a mouthful of saliva, raised the chopsticks with both hands, and made a pre-dinner etiquette with a very dignified appearance, and said:

"You're welcome!"

It is very difficult to grill fish, and it is difficult for ordinary chefs to make the skin crispy and the meat smooth, not to mention the fact that it is a short and shallow saury, and this difficulty is even more exponential, and it is a matter of life for chefs to do it without burning.

But the teriyaki saury in front of Chiba is not like this at all, it is baked to eight medium rare, the skin is between the charred but not the burnt, and the chopsticks are gently pinched, and it makes a gentle click, and the delicious fish meat falls into Chiba's mouth.

Suddenly, a smell of meat in a domineering way, in the blink of an eye, the entire mouth, this teriyaki saury does not feel very burnt at all, the meat is not dry at all, when chewing, you really can't believe that this fish meat is so smooth and tender, it does not come from steaming, but from teriyaki.

The flesh is fragrant and tender, with no bones, and melts in the mouth, with a hint of lime and honey sugar inside, which spreads like silk.

After taking a bite of grilled fish and swallowing a large mouthful of rice, a full sense of happiness suddenly arises.

If you eat with a dry mouth, there is still a bowl of miso soup waiting, with a yellowish color, shimmering with charming brilliance in the light, Chiba holds the miso soup in both hands as a sign of respect for the owner, and tastes it slightly, the faint taste, like the warmth of the family, enters the mouth for a long time, which is not very good, but if it is less, I always feel a little lacking.

Uchiha Itachi came out of Chiba to save the life of Zhishui, and I didn't know where to get a bottle of celadon wine, as well as two small cups, only the size of a finger, and only a small sip, and said:

"Chiba, let's have a drink of ginjo."

Ginjo is a very valuable sake in Konoha Village.

Chiba was not hypocritical, nodded, and let the Uchiha Itachi pour nine points of wine for him, if it was full, it would be easy to leak out, which was disrespectful to the guests.

After the wine is poured out, the smell of ten miles of fragrance is really suspicious, no matter how deep the alley is, you can still smell this fragrance.

Seeing this, Xiao Sasuke's big eyes did not blink, looking at the gint brewing in Uchiha Itachi's hand, he pouted, and said in a milky voice:

"Brother, I want it too!"

"No way!" Although Uchiha Itachi usually dotes on Sasuke, he showed a serious expression at this time, "You are still young, you can't drink." ”

"Oh!" Although Sasuke was unhappy in his heart, he didn't mess around, but obediently lowered his head and didn't mention it.

Chiba took the cup from Uchiha Itachi's hand, and saw that this wine was really as clear as clear water, and at first glance, it was difficult to tell whether it was wine or water, but the fragrance with a hint of sweetness, clear and thorough, did betray it.

Uchiha Itachi raised the cup with both hands, and was indescribably grateful to Chiba for saving Shisui's life, and could only turn it into a simple word:

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

The wine glass collides with the wine glass, making a crisp sound.

For men, drinking together is the fastest shortcut to get closer to each other, just a simple clinking glasses, no need for any words, everyone's friendship will fall into the belly with this wine, and become indistinguishable from each other.

When you first enter the mouth, it is as sweet and smooth as a soup, with a little sweetness, and when it reaches the throat, it feels a little cold, like a piece of ice on it, until it falls into the abdomen, it produces a kind of warmth, which fills the limbs and veins, and the warmth is very comfortable, as if you are in a hot spring, and it feels very pleasant.

Between Chiba and Uchiha Itachi, I don't know how much wine they drank, anyway, when the teriyaki saury was eaten up, the pot of celadon containing the ginjo had already been drunk by the two of them.

The host and guest are suitable, and although the degree of ginjo is not high, Chiba is also slightly drunk, and with the support of a servant, he returns to his residence and slowly falls asleep in a daze.

At this time, in the moonlight, a pitch-black figure stood on top of an eaves, condescendingly, watching all this coldly.

He was clearly standing there, but people subconsciously ignored him, like a ghost-like existence.

In the hazy moonlight, orange spiral masks and pitch-black robes rustle in the wind.

He's Ah Fei!

"What an unexpected existence!"

"If it weren't for this person, as soon as the water stopped and died, the weasel would carry out my plan under my bewitchment."

"In this case, such an existence should be erased as soon as possible!"

The writing wheel eye that was exposed alone bloomed with a blood-colored light of murderous intent.
