Chapter 101: Lucky
After a warm dinner, the father and son had a long talk.
But after chatting for so long, Tanakagawa actually couldn't understand too many twists and turns, the only thing he understood was the fact that Lu Ming was immortal.
"Why don't you discuss with Hokage-sama, can you stop being a ninja?" Tanakagawa looked at him expectantly, this was a father's wish, but the other party was also destined to say an answer that he didn't want to hear.
Of course Tanakagawa's worries he understands, ninjas are risky and need to be cautious, but it's like getting on a wooden boat and starting to leak halfway through rowing, can you turn back at this time, no, instead of turning back, it's better to row all the way to the end to see what the final scenery is, and for this profession, he himself is enjoying it.
"Dad, don't worry, now I'm still able to ensure my safety." Lu Ming smiled and said with relief, but it was also literal, now he does have the ability to protect himself, this is by no means he is boasting.
Tanakagawa, as the owner and chef of a bento shop, really knows very little about such things as fighting, and as an ordinary person, his common sense tells him that going to war is dangerous, unsafe, or unguaranteed, and there is no place safer than here in Konoha Village.
But he also clearly knew that he couldn't persuade the other party, this seemingly young but adult-minded teenager has always been such a person with his own plans.
"How long will you be back this time?" Tanakagawa was no longer entangled in the previous question, "Oh, by the way, there is one more thing, before Hokage-sama sent someone to send a pension, and now that you are back, is the pension going to be returned to the village?" ”
Although he doesn't have that much thirst for money now, he can't spit out the meat in his mouth, which is also his hard-earned money.
"No, you just put it away, Hokage-sama is not such a stingy person." Lu Ming said with a smile, "If you come back for a long time, it will take a few months, and if you come back for a short time, it depends on the specific situation on the front line." ”
"Okay then, I'll take it first."
…………
As soon as night came, Lu Ming, who had taken a bath, changed into a comfortable bathrobe, experienced the comfort of having nothing to do, and wandered around the streets of Konoha.
After leaving for a long time, Konoha Village has a few more bustling streets, which seem to have just been built.
Walking around, this street called Suzaku Street is new and lively from the inside out.
The fireworks of this night are no less than the scene of the New Year, and the children are shuttling through the dense flow of people, holding the cloud-shaped marshmallows they have just bought, white or pink, and they are tired of running and take a bite, which makes them unconsciously smile happily.
Chow noodle stalls, goldfish, charades, rings, juggling...... There are many people gathered in front of each stall, and the whole market illuminated by the lanterns on the street as if it were daytime.
Although he had just eaten dinner, Lu Ming couldn't help but be attracted by this atmosphere, and found a stall selling desserts to sit down, listening to the excitement around him while waiting for his desserts.
Looking at the boss serving a bowl of pale yellow squares, Lu Ming also asked curiously, "What is this?" ”
The boss smiled and said, "This little brother, this is a new work of the stall, the chestnut grinding powder is made of some other materials, the surface is elastic and slippery, but it has the fragrance of chestnuts, and it is sweet." ”
Lu Ming picked up the spoon and tasted it, and there was really a bit of a Q bomb in his mouth, but it had a chestnut fragrance, as if there was another fragrance hidden in it, and smiled, this should be regarded as the boss's unique secret recipe, otherwise it would not attract so many teenagers and girls who sat down and tasted it.
…………
"Now, Watergate, Mai Trinal, let's try that again, okay!" Tonight's Jiu Sinai seems to be full of vitality, actively encouraging the two of them, tirelessly eating, drinking and playing.
Of course, the water gate nodded and said yes, and Mai Trin did not sweep the other party's interest, and smiled in agreement.
"Mikoto Mikoto, how do you solve that half-half-half-and-half-lantern riddle?"
"It's really hard......"
"I guess it's a friend."
"Wow, it seems to be true, Mai Trin, you're really good." After speaking, he turned his head and showed a demonic smile to the boss of the stall, "Boss, what about the reward!" ”
As a result, the two of them each carried a unique lantern, Mai Trin's twelve-petal lotus flower shape, which was very delicate, and Jiu Sinai's carp-shaped, with a touch of fish tail raised high, very smart, but her choice of this lantern was just the appearance of this lantern is more interesting.
"Watergate, there's an even more powerful riddle here."
"How do I know......"
"Hey, it's better to be Mikoto." Kushina sighed deliberately, and Mikoto also smiled at the right time, and the two suddenly burst into laughter.
Shuimen scratched his head helplessly, can't I guess it's my fault, didn't you just come out!
Forget it, it's good that you're happy today, and then you smiled and kept up with the pace of the two people in front of you.
…………
Osmanthus cake, tempura, and some snacks and pastries that can't be named, Lu Ming lingered in them with his open stomach, and it didn't take long for him to die, mainly because he ate too much for dinner, patted his belly with a slight arc, and smiled awkwardly.
At this time, there was a sudden melodious song in front of me, which made people passing by can't help but gather together to enjoy this wonderful feast from a foreign land.
The golden wavy curls scattered down, the turquoise gems inlaid on it, the high nose bridge, the bewitching posture, and the unique exotic clothing, a strong exotic trend wafted out in this small area.
As the song was finished, the performers clasped their hands, and the people around them came to their senses, and there was thunderous applause for a while.
Even judging from Lu Ming's experience in his previous life, this is enough to be called a visual enjoyment, don't be stingy, applaud to your heart's content.
As Lu Ming's eyes swept over, his eyes lit up, and the person in his hand seemed to be holding a guitar, which he really missed.
"Would you like to give it a try?" Seeing Lu Ming's gaze staring at the guitar, the exotic girl stretched out her left hand and asked curiously.
Nodding and stepping forward, "Well, I want to try." ”
"Okay, no problem, but will you use it?" For such a young boy, she still had some doubts, but when she saw the other party skillfully holding the guitar, she was relieved.
It's a bit like a school graduation party, where everyone at the bottom of the group is focused on you, and it feels familiar and natural.
Gently plucked the strings a few times, filtered a few more skilled tracks in my heart, there are not many choices, but this is also to avoid entanglement, and it is not to be cool, it is indeed a feeling of nostalgia......
"Mai Trin, there seem to be a lot of people in front of you, it seems that there is a performance, do you want to go and see it."
"Okay."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiu Sinai took Mikoto's hand and squeezed towards the crowd, as if forgetting that there was a follower carrying snacks behind her.
And the attendant could only smile helplessly and follow again.
"The setting sun on the horizon reflected my face again, and once again reflected my restless heart, where this place is still so desolate, and where the endless journey is so long......"
The young man's mouth caught everyone's ears, and even the whispers disappeared at this moment, and the blonde exotic beauty just now showed an expression of amazement, as if this should not be a performance for a teenager of this age.
And at this time, Kushina and Mai Tamin have been squeezed out of the crowd on the side, and it is really the first time for Mai Tamin to squeeze in so forcefully, unloading the reserve of the eldest lady of the family, what kind of performance is so interesting?
When she looked up, she saw the side face of a young man in a gray yukata, and she saw him sitting on the edge of the stage with black hair up to his waist, holding a musical instrument she had never seen before, playing and singing quietly.
Maikoto's pupils shrank suddenly, and slowly began to move towards the other party's front.
Suddenly, she couldn't take her eyes off anymore, and the figure of the young man closing his eyes and singing appeared in front of her like this, and Jiu Sinai next to her also had a super long mouth, and his face was incredulous.
"Always in dreams I see your helpless eyes, my heart is awakened again, always in dreams I see myself walking on the way home, you stand under the sunset with a delicate face, that is your dress flying, that is your gentle as water......"
The lights on both sides of the market are brilliant, people come and go, in the surging applause, the young man who opened his eyes saw the gentle girl in front of him for the first time, and suddenly sighed in his heart, he was really lucky!
