Chapter 270: Temptation
"Mr. Kakashi" Markey was very punctual, and almost at the same time as Kakashi, he arrived at the Right Minister's Mansion, accompanied by Kankuro Iwa, who was not very eye-catching.
"Mr. Marki," the right minister, Mizumu Moth, was a little surprised by Marki's arrival, and his face changed suddenly when he saw Kakashi, but soon returned to normal, "It turns out that Mr. Kakashi also came, and the two of them are here at this time, I don't know what the important thing is?" β
"We heard that Maruzu Gongzi was sick and came to take a look." Kakashi said indifferently.
The corners of the water curtain borer's mouth twitched unnaturally, and he smiled and said, "The two of you who want to visit the prince should go to the Daimyo's mansion, so why did you come to my house." β
Ma Ji's face was dark, his right hand clenched into a fist, raised it over his shoulder, and pointed his thumb back: "Is this what Lord Shuimu is talking about?" β
The right minister's gaze crossed Markey's shoulder, and he saw a person who looked like Gongzi Marutsu standing next to him, his face suddenly turned gray, and his laughter was a little dry: "The two of you came from afar, first come to my house to sit down, what's the problem, let's go in and talk." β
Kakashi glanced at Maki and the person behind him who made the water curtain moth's face change drastically, and a smile hung on the corner of his mouth, and he secretly praised in his heart: This Maki is really very skillful, and his movements are really fast!
"We want to see Childe" Seeing the expression of the right minister, Ma Ji's heart sank, and his attitude became much tougher, and he put forward a request straight to the point.
"Of course, there is no problem in going to see Childe." The right minister, the water curtain borer, is worthy of being mixed up by officialdom, and in the short time he entered the door, he has cleaned up, and his fat face is full of smiles: "I'll go and report it." β
"No, we'll go with you." Markey had become suspicious of him and unceremoniously rejected the right minister's kindness.
"Okay, then I'll lead the way for the two gentlemen." Without any hesitation, the right minister agreed to Markey's request, and seemed not at all worried about them seeing Childe.
Markey was a little puzzled, and observed the water curtain borer's every move more carefully, but unfortunately Markey could see that he had any bad intentions.
Could it be that Kakashi misjudged them? Marki frowned slightly, the corners of his eyes swept to his side, and Kakashina, who was yawning inadvertently, had just raised suspicions, and the suspicions that had just hatched disappeared with his yawn.
"Who is it?" The voice in the room was tinged with displeasure.
"Childe is me." The right minister stood in front of the door and reported respectfully, "Elder Maki of the Sand Ninja Village and Mr. Kakashi of Konoha pay a visit to Childe. β
After a moment of silence, a voice came from the room again: "Come in, two of you!" β
"My son is unwell and can't get up to greet him, so please forgive me." Childe Marutsu leaned on the bed and watched the two come in, slightly owing.
"Childe is polite," Markey bowed and saluted: "Childe's body owes Ann Maki to bother and hope that Childe Haihan." β
"Both of them are celebrities in the ninja world, and I have admired them for a long time, and it is an honor for Maruzu to meet them both at the same time." Marutsu is very young, in his early twenties, and if it weren't for the two mustaches on his mouth, he would feel like a little white face.
He spoke slowly, raised his finger slightly, pointed to the cushion on the side, and said, "Two distinguished guests, please take a seat." β
"Childe praised it falsely," Markey sat down slowly, and doubts flashed in his lowered eyes.
"Mr. Kakashi is Konoha Heroi, how can he appear in our Wind Country?" Marutsu asked seemingly casually as he sat on the top of the collapse with the assistance of the right minister, the water curtain moth.
Kakashi looked at Marutsu's body suspiciously, leaned forward slightly, and asked with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Childe really doesn't know why I appeared in the Land of Wind?" β
"Huh...... That's exactly what I want to know. Marutsu laughed too, but there was a hint of anger in his laughter, as if he was dissatisfied with Kakashi's unreasonableness.
Maki sat still, watching coldly, wondering what Kakashi would respond next.
"I thought Mizuma-sama had already told Childe everything, it seems that the relationship between Mizuma-sama and Childe is not as close as rumored outside." Kakashi's sharp eyes fell on the right minister behind Marutsu, with a cold murderous aura hidden in it.
The water curtain moth didn't expect Kakashi to point the finger at him so directly, and said angrily, "Mr. Kakashi, what do you mean by that?" Are you trying to say that I have other intentions for Childe? β
"Uncle, why should you be angry, Mr. Kakashi is just testing us." Maruzu's tone was flat, but there was mystery in his words.
Win! Kakashi felt a little smug in his heart, and his voice was as calm as usual, "It seems that Childe knows everything." β
"How could you not know?" Childe Marujin's face that had just been casual suddenly pulled down, gritted his teeth, and said: "If it weren't for the cleverness of this childe, I'm afraid that now I would be as missing as my father." β
"Childe-" Ma Ji stood up suddenly, the message implied by Childe Maruzu's words just now was too shocking, could it really be as the water curtain borer said, it was Yoshinari Duanhei, who had different ambitions?
"Why should Mr. Markey be excited, listen to Childe finish his words slowly." Maki is concerned about chaos, and Kakashi, who is a foreign aid, naturally has a different perspective and reassures him.
"Hey, it's a long storyβ" Childe Marutsu sighed gloomily, the sadness in his eyes was so real that no one who saw it could bear to doubt it.
But Kakashi was an exception, and looking at his curious look, he seemed more interested in the story that was about to unfold.
β¦β¦
Yi, who was leaning on the railing outside the door and sleeping, suddenly snorted softly, with a strange expression on his face, revealing a little anxiety, his eyes swept around the courtyard, and the guards who stayed by his side from time to time looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.
"How?" Although it was very unpleasant to see Yi, based on the identity of the collaborators of both sides, Kankuro was still kindly concerned, but his tone could be a little less sarcastic, maybe it would be easier for people to feel his kindness.
Yi's eyes widened, and he glared at Kanjiuro angrily, and only after a while did he hold back two words: "It's okay." β
"Hmph" was a good heart, and was treated as a donkey by Yi, and Kanjiuro was too lazy to ask for himself, so he simply turned around and stood by the pillar opposite Yi.
The two were at a stalemate for a moment, and Yi finally couldn't help it, "Hey-"
Kankuro turned his head to look at the other side: Sorry I didn't hear.
"Stingy," Yi scolded in a low voice, but unfortunately, Kanjiuro's classmate still "didn't" hear it.
Yi's body writhed slightly, his face was extremely unsightly, and he slowly moved to the nearest guard.
The guard had already noticed his unusually vigilant gaze, and when he saw him approaching, he immediately prepared to draw his sword.
"Pop" Yi's movements were faster, pressing the guard's knife back to the scabbard, "Oops" Yi quickly realized that his movements were a little abrupt, but there was no way, this was the body's habitual reaction, and he couldn't control it.
Yi's actions easily plucked the tense strings of the novel and laid out in the guards, and in an instant, six or seven guards surrounded him.
"It's not easy to move so fast, it's good to cooperate with this class of guards!" At this time, Yi is still in the mood to sigh.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, I don't mean anything." Hearing the sound of the sword drawn, Yi hurriedly looked at the guards with what he thought was the most sincere gaze, and explained, but his explanation obviously could not satisfy these people, and the hostility of the guards was not eased by Yi's smiling faces.
"What's wrong?" The hustle and bustle outside the door successfully attracted the right minister, the water curtain borer.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's wrong." Yi smiled and shook his hand to explain.
The right minister's face sank, and he reprimanded the guards who were still standing with their swords drawn: "Do everything for me, put away the knife, Konoha Ninja is a friend of our Wind Country, and I am a guest of the Water Curtain Moth, how can you be so rude?" β
"Hehe," Yi smiled embarrassedly, watched the guards put away their knives, and carefully rubbed to the side of the right minister, and whispered in a voice that only the right minister could hear: "Actually, I want to ask this brother where the toilet is?" β
A trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of the right minister, looking at Yi's purple face, he suddenly smiled: "So that's the case!" β
After listening to Yi's explanation, the right minister ordered the guards who had just clashed with Yi Sheng with an understanding smile on his face: "You take this brother to the toilet!" β
Feeling the contemptuous eyes cast by Kanjiuro and the guards, Yi was very unhappy in his heart: "Damn old man, you deliberately said that you wanted me to make a fool of yourself so loudly!" Yi secretly cursed the water curtain moth, but his face showed gratitude to him.
The right minister, who saw Yi leave, did not immediately return to the room, and his right hand was in the room, and he thought for a moment with his heavy chin, waved his hand at the other two guards, and watched them rush in the direction of Yi leaving, before smiling at Kankuro who was watching him from the side, and retreated into the room.
"Is there anyone watching you when you go to the toilet?" Yi smiled secretly in his heart, and trotted all the way with the guards who led the way.
"This is it," the guard who led the way pointed to the toilet with disdain, and it was rumored in the outside world how powerful the ninja of Konoha was, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that, and the image of Yi made the guard misunderstand the ninja of Konoha. (The most evil of all!) How can you ruin Konoha's image like this? οΌ
"Thank you," Yi thanked the guard, and his disdainful eyes were already in his eyes, and he could probably understand what he was thinking.
"Ahh
"What about the two?" Yi Shun threw the guard into the latrine and turned his head and asked.
"Asleep," Bai turned out of the back of the hospital dressed as a doctor and answered Yi's question.
"Asleep?" Yi scratched his head and smiled: "Bai is too good to them, and if you want me to say that you can take a big rock and knock them unconscious, who told them to laugh at me just now." β
Bai smiled softly and said, "They are just acting on orders, so why bother them? β
Yi pursed his lips and shrugged, "I knew you would say that, I received an emergency call from Yuan, and they may be in danger." Yi quickly got to the point, which was the real reason why he sacrificed his great image to escape by urinating.
"Hmm!" Bai nodded: "Dongtian and Qingtian have already arrived." β
"Gen and Kamikaze have been gone for a long time, I hope they can catch up." Even if Yi behaves very freely, but when it comes to his brother's life, he is inevitably a little worried.
"Well," Bai was equally worried, but things here couldn't be delayed, "Let's hurry up too!" β
"I see, Childe, you suspected that Lord Ji Cheng had poisoned your food, so you asked Lord Mizumu to arrange a stand-in to hide in the right minister's mansion. So, do you think the disappearance of the daimyo has something to do with Yoshisei-sama? Kakashi carefully looked at Marutsu and didn't let go of any change in his expression.
"Although he is not 100% sure, he is the most suspicious, otherwise he should have reported it to me earlier, but what he is doing now is more like trying to leave me, the rightful heir, aside." Maruzu's tone was calm, not like he was lying.
"I see," Kakashi nodded, glanced at Maki beside him, and continued, "Childe's health is directly related to the future of the Land of Wind and the peace of the Five Great Powers, so after hearing that Childe was sick, we, Hokage-sama, specially arranged for Kenzen Shiro, one of the best medical ninjas in Konoha to see Childe. β
"This-" Mizura's face was a little ugly, he didn't expect Kakashi to make such a move.
Different from the vague worry of the water curtain borer, Marutsu Gongzi's eyes seemed to show a trace of expectation and expectation, but his mouth politely refused: "Marutsu is very grateful for Hokage-sama's concern, Maruzu's illness should be related to poisoning in food, after this period of recuperation, his body has improved a lot, and the kindness of many adults, Marutsu understands."
Kakashi savored Maruza's words, and his eyes with anticipation and anticipation appeared in his mind from time to time, was there anything hidden in this?
"Is that so?" The corners of Kakashi's mouth tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "But the news we got is that Childe's condition seems to be getting worse?" β
"What do you mean by that?" The right minister, the water curtain borer, immediately asked rhetorically.
"Because that's what I said," Shiro and I's figures appeared in the room at the same time, and it couldn't have been easier for them as ninjas to avoid the ordinary guards entering the room.
"Is that you?" The water curtain moth looked at Shiro in surprise, why didn't he realize that he was a ninja?
"I'm the Konoha Medical Ninja - Shiro" Bai politely saluted Marutsu and introduced himself.
However, an aura of restlessness and restlessness suddenly surged with Shiro's arrival.
