Shiraki's ward, there was an endless stream of people who came to see him.

His popularity is still good, the classmates of the previous session and this session have come to see him, aunts and uncles next door, and adults who know him will also come to see him, and of course the teachers of the school will also come.

Iruka also came.

"Shiraki, how do you feel?"

Bai Mu heard a familiar voice and was overjoyed: "Iruka-sensei, why are you here, are you okay, I was thinking about when I would see you." ”

"I can go, of course it's okay, otherwise how can I come to see you! I really hope you can come to see me soon, which means that you will get better sooner. That's what we agreed on, and you're not going to let me down, right, Shiraki? ”

Iruka walked over to Shiraki's bedside and sat down with a smile in his eyes.

Bai Mu nodded heavily: "Yes." ”

"The vase can't hold the flowers sent, and there are so many people looking at you."

Iruka's eyes fell to the bedside of the hospital room, where there was a large white porcelain vase, mostly carnations that symbolized health and beauty, and bright flowers, crowded to the brim, and the vase could not be filled.

The fragrance of the flowers dispelled the uncomfortable smell of medicine in the ward.

"I won't join in the fun, I didn't bring flowers, but I have a special gift for you."

"I'm already glad that you're injured yourself, and you can still come to see me, and you don't need to bother preparing gifts."

"Don't be too busy refusing yet, you will definitely be happier when you see this gift I brought."

Bai Mu smiled gently, disapproving, what he cared about was the hearts of the people who came to see him, and as for the gift or something, it didn't matter at all.

"Take it, I won't say what it is, you can guess for yourself."

Shiraki felt that Iruka shoved a long strip into his hand and touched it with his other hand.

It's cold, it's made of metal, and the sides are soft straps, and the middle of the metal strip has some sunken lines.

His fingers tipped back and forth along the lines, which seemed to be the pattern of leaves......

Shiraki said in surprise: "This is, ninja forehead guard!" ”

"How's that, you like it?"

Of course, Shiraki liked it very much, last year, this year, in the graduation exam, he saw a pile of forehead guards on the invigilator's desk, but he couldn't get it.

By the way, didn't the graduation exam pass, he obviously didn't pass, which means that he is going to repeat a grade again, how can he get the forehead protection that represents his successful graduation at this time?

Could it be a consolation prize, right?

Shiraki expressed the doubts in his heart, and Iruka smiled, "Shiraki, you did not pass the exam. But you know what? The purpose of the establishment of the ninja school is to lay the foundation for the children to grow into excellent ninjas in the future, and the so-called graduation exam is only a means to achieve this goal, and it is not the only means.

In this case, you have proven everything, this real score is more convincing than the test score, and the teacher is proud to have a student like you.

From now on, you are a glorious Konoha ninja, and the teacher believes that this is just the beginning, not only am I proud, but you will definitely be able to grow into a Konoha ninja who everyone is proud of you in the future. ”

Iruka said that he valued him so much, Bai Mu touched his head a little embarrassed, and rubbed his forehead guard with his other hand, the heat of his palm dispelled the coldness of the metal, and the forehead guard in his hand was heavy, with a weight that surpassed its own mass.

"That's right, Shiraki! You have become a ninja, but this time you will not be involved in the graduate class. But don't think about it, take this opportunity to recuperate, try to get your eyes back as soon as possible, and then start your ninja path in earnest. ”

Shiraki nodded, indicating understanding.

In order to help the next generation grow better, Konoha divides the graduates of the ninja school into a class of three, and then one of the upper ninja takes a class, with the big and the small, accumulating experience in the mission, so as to officially embark on the road to becoming a ninja.

But obviously, Shiraki is currently blind, and it is a burden to go, so it is better to wait for his eyes to recover first, and it is reasonable for the village to make such arrangements for him.

He couldn't refute it, but he was suddenly a little lost, which was probably no different from repeating a grade in a ninja school.

The most important thing is that his blindness really can't get better for a while, but that doesn't mean he will be a burden, blindness is indeed an extremely fatal blow for a ninja, but not absolutely!

To use blindness as an excuse to stop?

Or do you have no excuses to keep working hard and find a way forward?

Suddenly, Shiraki clenched the forehead guard in his hand, and a stream of air poured out of his hand, stirring the frenulum on both sides.

As the air flow wrapped around the forehead guard, gradually, a black and white image of the forehead protector appeared in Shiroki's 'eyes'.

……

"Naruko, congratulations, from today onwards, you will be a glorious Konoha ninja!" Iruka finds Naruko again and announces the good news to her.

"Haha, I'm graduated!" Naruko was happy, but she was also concerned about another question, "Iruka-sensei, what about Shiraki?" ”

"Of course Shiraki has it too, just now, he has already received my forehead protection."

"Yay, that's great!" Naruko was overjoyed.

"Naruko, for the first time, the teacher will put on your forehead guard, and I wish you to become an excellent ninja."

Iruka took out the prepared forehead guard and said that she was about to put it on for Naruko, when she suddenly felt her hands empty.

"Iruka, I've received your blessing, but it's ...... protect your forehead," Naruko snatched the forehead guard first, and stuffed it into her pocket with a strange expression, as if she had no idea, "But this is the first time, I'll just come by myself." ”

Iruka thought that Naruko still had a knot in his heart, but after careful inspection, he felt that it was not, and suddenly sniffed: "This smell ......"

The source of the smell came from the soup box that Naruko was carrying, and Iruka looked at it and asked suspiciously, "Naruko, what is this?" ”

Naruko blushed and immediately hid the soup box behind her: "It's nothing, that... I've got something to do, goodbye, Mr. Iruka. ”

Iruka watched a panicked Naruko run away.

It's a weird smell, although it looks like a soup box, but it has this taste, it can't be food inside, it should be some kind of poison!

Naruko and poison? I can't get in touch, when did Naruko, who has a rough branch, become interested in poison?

Iruka shook her head in confusion.
