Chapter 142: The Ghost of the Night (2)
Uchiha looked at the mysterious man with a mask in front of him, his expression was a little dazed, he was frightened by the information revealed by the mysterious man just now, "Who are you, how can you know so many secrets of the Uchiha clan?" β
"Do you really want to know?" The mysterious man's hoarse and deep voice carried a hint of coercion and charm, and after speaking, he gently lifted the mask on his head, revealing half of his face.
"Is that you? How is it possible, aren't you-, are you-", Uchiha's mind was completely confused, the face in front of him, he only had a trace of distant memory, but these eyes, he would never forget.
The mystery man put on his mask again and whispered, "Now, you know why!" β
It took Uchiha Wei more than ten minutes to recover from this series of blows, and there was even a hint of fanaticism in his eyes, "Since you're okay, we have nothing to worry about." β
The mystery man let out a wry laugh and slowly dived into the darkness, giving the Uchiha enough time to think, he had already thrown the bait, now it's up to them to do it.
"Brother, you're late again." A cute boy pouted dissatisfiedly, looking cute.
"Sasuke, I'm sorry, my brother is really busy." Itachi Uchiha rubbed his brother's jet-black head, his eyes full of apology and love.
"Hmph, that's the reason every time." Uchiha Sasuke dissatisfiedly pulled Itachi's hand and complained.
"Sasuke, don't always pester your brother, he's still in trouble." Mikoto Uchiha looked at her naughty little son and shouted softly.
Uchiha Sasuke looked up, looked at the stern eyes cast by Uchiha Fuchigaoka behind his mother, lowered his head in some disappointment, and let go of the hand that grabbed Uchiha Itachi's clothes.
"Hehe-", Itachi smiled softly, flicked his right index finger on Sasuke's eyebrows, and said, "Next time!" Next time, I'll come back early and practice kunai with you. β
"And what do you mean?" A smile immediately appeared on Sasuke's face, although he knew that his brother's promise was likely to be an empty word, but he was willing to make such a promise, even if it was to lie to himself, it would prove that his brother cared about him!
"I promise." Itachi raised the little thumb of his right hand, gestured kissily, and walked towards the entrance.
"Father, Mother, I'm back." Itachi Uchiha respectfully greeted his parents, and although he had to do so every day, he maintained his sincerity and love every day.
"Hmm", Uchiha Fugaoka didn't even raise his head, just answered softly and continued to read his newspaper.
"Itachi, I made the dish you like to eat today, you're done with your work, come and eat early." Mikoto Uchiha said to her son with a warm smile on her face.
"Got it, then I'll go back to my room first." As soon as Uchiha Itachi returned to his room, he closed the door tightly, and he slumped on the bed weakly.
He didn't understand what was going on in this world, Mito Menyan asked him to monitor the family's moves, and the Great Elder asked him to monitor the actions of the three generations and the elder group, and he became a double agent. But these were not what he wanted, and he wanted to ask his father what he should do, but Uchiha Fugaoka ignored him and seemed to deliberately keep his distance from him, which made him very uncomfortable.
"Hmm", Uchiha Itachi touched the gift given to him by a dark department of the hippo Hanyu today, and carefully took it out, "Scroll? "I'm really looking forward to it!
Gently opening the scroll, looking at the unfamiliar pattern on it, speculating about what this pattern was, it looked a bit like a seal, "Use it in the most critical time?" Uchiha Itachi thought back to the dark part who handed this thing to himself, but, how should this scroll be used?
"Is it a psychic scroll?" Itachi sat up and studied it carefully, but after trying many methods, there was no response, and he simply put the scroll back into his ninja bag.
"Itachi", after dinner, Itachi was about to rest, when he heard his father's voice outside the door.
"Father-sama", Itachi quickly opened the door and invited his father into the room.
Uchiha Fugaoka looked at his son's room slightly, he was naturally clear about his son's situation, he was naturally clear as a father, but there were many things, even he, the patriarch, had no way to decide, "Pay attention to your words and deeds recently, someone in the clan has an opinion on you." β
"Someone spying on me?" Uchiha Itachi reacted immediately, his heart was cold, and the smile on his face was a little helpless, what had become of him? While monitoring the Konoha high-level under the order of the family, he was also monitored by the family's people, and he was monitored by the Konoha high-level at the same time. It seems that it is not popular in any way!
Uchiha Itachi didn't answer his son's question, but left the room after saying this sentence again, leaving Itachi with a puzzled and dazed face. Faced with such a situation, where should I go? Itachi kept asking himself.
"Sasuke has already slept, but Itachi hasn't slept yet, has he?" Mikoto Uchiha asked, looking at her husband who was in a bad mood.
"Hmm", Uchiha Fumioka glanced up at his wife, a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes, a trace of guilt, and finally turned into a sigh.
"Don't think about it so much, I'm sure Itachi is a wonderful kid." Uchiha Mikoto gently comforted that although Fugaoka never mentioned family matters in front of her, she still heard some from other places, after all, her maiden family also had a very high status in the Uchiha family.
"Hmm", Uchiha Fukugao nodded again, but his heart became more and more depressed. He, like Itachi, loves Konoha and the family deeply, so he doesn't agree with some of the elders' opinions, but as the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, he has to bear the interests of the entire family, so in the balance of interests, he finally tilts towards the family.
But he doesn't want to be an enemy of Konoha, maybe seclusion like the Senju clan of the forest is their best choice! However, several elders who originally agreed with him suddenly changed their minds and actually had ambitions for that position, which made him very powerless.
Since you can't change anything, then sink with the family! Uchiha Fumioka thought. It's just that, looking at his wife beside him, he felt a burst of guilt in his heart, reached out and hugged his wife to his side, and slowly fell asleep.
After a few days, Itachi knew who the family was spying on him, something he couldn't think of, or rather he didn't want to think about.
"Itachi, did you kill the water?" The Uchiha looked at Itachi sternly, his old face covered with frost.
Uchiha Fumioka sat quietly beside him, and he hadn't looked at his son since he came in, as if he was asleep.
The corners of Uchiha Itachi's mouth twitched twice, a little sad, a little funny, "Why did I kill him?" "Yes! Zhishui can be regarded as his only friend!
"Because now he's spying on you." The words of the second elder were like a huge thunderbolt exploding in the ears of the ferret.
"Hehe~~", Itachi lowered his head to prevent others from seeing the tears looming in his eyes, and his laughter sounded a little eerie, as if he was crying, and it was like mocking.
He loves his family, but how does his family treat him? Since the second elder said these words in front of him, he had already explained that the family would no longer believe him, and even put him in the position of an enemy, and he was abandoned by the family he had always loved deeply.
Itachi's heart sank little by little, and he could feel the mocking gaze of the mysterious man behind Uchiha Kun, perhaps, he was right, only strong strength would not betray him.
Itachi didn't know how he left the family compound, looked into the distance silently, and suddenly said, "You did it, and you killed the water?" β
"Does this matter? Whatever he died for, at least his death was valuable, you should see it clearly, right? What kind of people are you caring about in your family? Does such a family still have a point of existence? A dark voice replied, but the speaker was nowhere to be seen.
"What do you want to do?" Although Uchiha Itachi is very disappointed in the family, there are still people in this family that he cares about, and he can't completely let go.
"Hehe, it's not what I want to do, it's what they want to do, can you stop them from digging their own grave? Perhaps, this is the best ending for the Uchiha family! I really want to see what happens to these depraved people! The voice continued.
Uchiha Itachi felt that his heart was being pinched, he was powerless to change, powerless to stop, powerless to resist, did he really watch the family go to extinction? If that's the case, it's better toβa terrible thought occurred in the ferret's mind.
"Teacher, what's wrong with you?" Uchiha Shizune looked at the hippo Hanyu looking at his strange expression, very puzzled.
"Nothing, why did you come back so soon, your mission?" Seeing the sudden return of Uchiha Shizune, Hippo Hanyu couldn't be happier.
"Oh, something happened to that employer himself, so he canceled the assignment, and we came back naturally, didn't the teacher welcome us back?" Uchiha asked rhetorically.
"How so?" Hippo Hanyu smiled and said, "You're tired!" Go to rest early, and talk about it tomorrow. After beating Uchiha Jing away, Hippo Hanyu couldn't help but think in his heart, is it providence for her to come back at this time? No, he won't let Jing have an accident.
"Brother, do you have something on your mind?" Kakashi asked, standing quietly behind Hanyu Hippo.
"The village has not been peaceful recently, there is nothing to do, so don't enter the village." Hippo Hanyu emphasized that Jing's return made him a little more worried, "Stay with your uncle!" And Jing, don't let her run around. β
"Not peaceful?" Kakashi had just come back from outside, so he didn't know much about the situation, and these situations were not something that the ninjas below could know, "I saw that the village was fine when I came back just now!" β
"Smack", Hippo Hanyu slapped Kakashi on the shoulder, and said very unceremoniously: "Listen to me, hurry up and report the mission to the third generation!" Maybe three generations will tell you why. β
"Kakashi, are you making my brother angry again?" Lynn asked with her head poking her head out of the room and concerningly.
Kakashi walked quickly to Rin's side, carefully supporting her, and said with a hippie smile, "No, we two are having a good time." β
"yes!" Hippo Hanyu accompanied him carefully, his eyes swept over Rin's stomach, and he smiled, "You came out so quickly, shouldn't you be worried that I will bully Kakashi?" β
"Well, that's what I thought." Lynn stretched out her little finger and gestured, her face a little smug and colorful.
"You're so honest!" Hippo Hanyu is sweating wildly, but Lin is now the one who holds Shang Fang's sword, and the whole family is protected like her national treasure, and Hippo Hanyu really can't do anything to her.
"Hehe-, brother, what kind of expression do you have, it shouldn't be jealousy, right?" Kakashi was full of pride, and after getting married, his status in the family seemed to have improved a lot, at least, no one would treat him as a child anymore.
However, this guy didn't learn, but he was leaning towards the former hippo Hanyu, and his face was getting better and better.
"I'm about to become a father, and I'm still so immature, heyβ" Hanyu Hippo ignored Kakashi's words and shook his head and sighed.
Seeing the two of them fighting there, especially when she saw Kakashi eating turtles, Rin couldn't help but laugh.
