Chapter 135: A Man's Responsibility and Red's Decision
"Brother-" Seeing the hippo Hanyu coming back from outside, Lin hurriedly greeted him.
"Huh? Oh-", it took Hanyu a long time for Hippo to react, it turned out that Lin called him! It's really a little unaccustomed, thinking that Lin is a new daughter-in-law who has just entered the door, and she is not good at pulling her face to make her ugly, Hippo Hanyu's face has eased a lot.
Kenzen Motozo followed in from behind, and sighed silently when he saw Hippo Hanyu's smiling face, and saw Hippo Hanyu chatting with Lin there, and walked towards the back room.
"Hanyu, it's okay!" Tomoko Hippo and Ling Kiki also gathered around Kenzen Motozo and asked uneasily.
"It's okay for now! But-" Seeing that the two women's faces had just relaxed and became nervous again with his words, Kenzen Motozo swallowed back the second half of his words, "It's nothing." ”
When he returned to his bedroom, he couldn't see the red anymore, and Hippo Hanyu was actually relieved, and despised himself fiercely, and began to pack up his clothes and scrolls.
"Hanyu, are you—" Qi Mu Ling also watched as Hippo Hanyu walked out of the room with a huge backpack on his back, and asked nervously, his voice unconsciously getting a little louder.
Hearing Ling Ye's shout, Tomoko Hippo and Kenzen Motozo also came out of their respective rooms. Seeing that Hippo Hanyu looked like he was about to leave, Tomoko Hippo's heart sank, his feet were unstable, and he almost fell, but he was held up by Kenzen Motosa, who shot in time.
"Where are you going?" Tomoko Hippo's voice trembled slightly, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't hide his panic at the moment.
"Go to the dojo." Seeing the appearance of the six gods and no owner of the hippo Zhizi, Hippo Hanyu felt uncomfortable in his heart! However, although he can understand yesterday's incident, he really can't accept it, "Go and clean up first." ”
"I-" Tomoko Hippo was about to speak, but was stopped by Kenzen Motosa.
"Let him be alone for a while!" Watching Hippo Hanyu leave, Kenzen Motozo said softly, "He'll figure it out." ”

"Red", Sunset Emon has been sitting in the living room, and when he saw his daughter come back, a trace of distress and guilt flashed in his eyes.
"Father, why did you get out?" Hong, who was already preoccupied, saw his pale father, and immediately walked up to his side and asked worriedly.
"It's nothing, it's just that you didn't come back overnight, and I'm a little worried." Sunset Emon looked at his daughter's equally pale face, his eyes were gloomy, and he raised his hand with some difficulty and put it on Hong's head, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's nothing, it's just that I was so happy yesterday that I drank some wine and didn't come back, which worries you." Red quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, not wanting her father, who was already in very bad health, to worry.
"It's okay, look at you, you must not have slept yesterday! Go and rest for a while. "Red is not a person who is good at lying, what's more, the person she deceived was his father, who was once the best illusion ninja in Konoha and a very powerful master of illusion breaking, how could he be deceived by Red so easily, it's just that he didn't want to debunk it.
Hong also knew that his face must be bad, and he was worried that his father would see through it, but thinking that his father might have waited all night and hadn't eaten yet, he got up and walked towards the kitchen.
"Hey-", Sunset Emon listened to the sound coming from the kitchen, leaned back in his chair gently, sighed deeply, and muttered, "Don't worry, everything will be fine." ”
After taking care of the sunset emon and resting, Red returned to her room, closed the door, and slowly slid to the ground against the door, holding her head tightly on her knees.
The suppressed cry slowly came out, her mood at the moment was very complicated, she didn't hate Hippo Hanyu, and even still liked him deeply, but she didn't know how to deal with this sudden change, and, after knowing that the person Hippo Hanyu liked was Tsunade, she didn't know how to face Hippo Hanyu. The road ahead seemed to be a mystery, and in the end, Hong, who was tired of crying, fell asleep like this.
On the balcony outside the red room, Hippo Hanyu stood silently with his back alone, listening to the red cry, he frowned tightly, spelling out a deep tic-tac-toe, he also needed time to think about what attitude to face red.
"Uncle, is Red at home?" The next day, with a decision, Hippo Hanyu finally knocked on the door of the red family, and it was the Sunset Gate that opened the door.
"Hanyu-", a smile appeared on his pale face of Sunset Emon, "Come in and sit." ”
"You're not well?" Hippo Hanyu held the sunset gate, checked his situation, and his brows were slightly twisted together. Over the years, he has always been wandering outside, and he hasn't come to visit this elder who has been paying attention to him for a long time. And although Red often goes to his house, he never mentions Sunset's physical condition, which is already so bad.
"Hehe, it's just an old injury, it's not a big deal." Sunset Emon is very clear about his own body, and he has long lost much hope, but before he leaves, there are some things that need to be arranged first.
"Red isn't at home, he's on a mission." Sunset emon explained, and motioned for Hippo Hanyu to sit across from him, asking, "Is there anything to find her?" ”
Hearing that Hong was no longer home, Hippo Hanyu was slightly stunned for a moment, looked at Sunset Gate, and felt that there was something in his deep eyes that he didn't understand.
"I-", Hippo Hanyu pondered slightly, a little hesitant whether to confess to Sunset Emon. However, although he suffers from emotional gains and losses, he is by no means a coward who dares to do nothing, and he will not find some high-sounding reasons to cover up his mistakes. "I'm here to apologize to Hong, the day before yesterday I drank too much and did something I shouldn't have done and hurt her."
"Huh? What's up? Sunset Emon didn't seem to understand what Hippo Hanyu meant secretly, but when he heard that Red was hurt by him, his eyes, which had been soft just now, immediately became stern.
Hippo Hanyu smiled bitterly and briefly explained the matter, but he did not mention that he was drugged by his mother to make such a mistake. No matter whose reason it is, the responsibility will be on his head after all, and no matter how dissatisfied he is with Tomoko Hippo, he will not slander his mother in front of outsiders.
Listening to Hanyu the hippo taking all the sins on himself and taking the initiative to bear all this, Sunset Emon's eyes softened a little, and he said coldly: "Apologize? Does an apology work? ”
"Of course it's useless to apologize." Hippo Hanyu smiled bitterly and said, "But the apology at least represents my attitude, doesn't it?" It's better than nothing! ”
"What are you going to do?" Although he is sick, the momentum of the sunset is not diminished in the slightest.
"I don't know." Hippo Hanyu didn't want to lie, "I'm here, just to do what a man should do, what I should bear, I will never shirk." ”
Sunset Emon moved forward and said solemnly, "I want you to marry Hong." ”
Hippo Hanyu looked at the red eyes of Sunset Emon and said, "No problem, I promise, I will treat the red one well." ”
"That's good." Sunset Emon heard Hippo Hanyu answer dryly, and his heart was put down, such a result, Red should be satisfied!
"I don't agree." The red door suddenly opened, and she walked out in a Konoha ninja costume, she looked heroic with a straight waist, if it weren't for the bloodshot eyes with some undried tears, it would be even more perfect.
"Huh?" Sunset Emon's brows furrowed, he knew very well how much his daughter liked the hippo Hanyuchi, over the years, for him, people have lost a lot of weight, and even the original lively personality has become a little dull.
"Red-", of course Hippo Hanyu knew that Red was in the room, otherwise he wouldn't have come in.
"I don't agree, this incident is not Hanyu's fault, and besides, it's just an accident." Red's voice was soft, but it was also very resolute, just like Hippo Hanyu had made a decision after thinking about it all night, and Red also had his own ideas.
"Red-", both Hippo Hanyu and Sunset Emon were a little surprised.
"I accept the apology, but if I get married because of this incident, I can't do it." At this moment, Red is not like a woman who has been hurt, but more like a ninja, an excellent Konoha ninja.
Hippo Hanyu was stunned, as if he only knew red now, for the first time he didn't treat red as a child, looking directly at Hong's firm eyes, Hippo Hanyu was shocked.
"I see, I respect your decision." Hippo Hanyu nodded, his face calm, he understood the subtext of red.
Red doesn't need him to marry her out of responsibility and guilt, what she wants is that Hanyu the hippo really likes her and appreciates her.
After sending away Hanyu the hippo, Red was not as proud as he looked just now, and gently snuggled up to Sunset Emon, gently resting his head on his father's shoulder, and asked a little chokedly, "Am I stupid?" Got you down? ”
"No, you are my daughter and my pride." Sunset Emon smiled, although the unfolding of things seemed to be a little unexpected to him, but the performance of Hippo Hanyu did not disappoint him, and Hong's performance made him even more happy, in this way, even if he had something, he believed that Red could live a good life alone.
This incident didn't seem to have a big impact on Red, and after a few days, Red was fully engaged in the mission, and only Sunset Emon knew that her daughter was working harder than before.
Hippo Hanyu's home, but there is no such calm, Kakashi and Rin's expressions when they know about this can only be described as surprise, Kakashi, who was originally very dissatisfied with Hippo Hanyu's early departure, was also completely speechless. Originally, he felt that he was pitiful enough to be forced to marry by his mother, but when he thought of what happened to Hanyu Hippo, he sympathized even more, could it be that his own curse worked?
After Hanyu the hippo pondered alone in the dojo for a month, Kakashi and Rin began a great and difficult journey of persuasion, and Reiya Kiki and Kushina Uzumaki took turns fighting. Kenzen Motozo was even more straightforward, and directly took Kenzen Fujiko's mother and son and Qingtian brother and sister to stay in the dojo.
After a half-year stalemate, Hippo Hanyu let go of the matter.
Soon after the matter was settled, the family of Hippo and Kiki moved to the back mountain, and this year, Kenzen Cave and Kamikaze both graduated with honors and became a shinobi of the glorious Konoha ninja.
After the two of them graduated, Hippo Hanyu suggested that Sunny and Shiro be named at the school, and with the support of Kenzen Motozo and Kakashi, they became the first full-time apprentices in the dojo.
