Konoha 52 years.

The Third Great Ninja War is still over.

With the fourth generation of Konoha Hokage Wave Feng Shui Gate sealing the Nine-Tails Sacrifice, the Thunder Country in the northeast, after getting the news, began to move, and the Yunyin Village in the country immediately mobilized a large number of Yunyin ninjas to borrow from the Land of Yu.

Three to attack the territory of the country on fire, ·.

The war between the two countries has been going on since a few years ago, and neither side can see when the war will end.

In this context, everyone in each country is in danger, closing the country, monitoring every move of Konoha and Yunyin battlefield to prevent getting angry.

The Land of Earth.

In the ninja world, where war still exists, this is one of the few places where peace can still be maintained.

But beneath the surface of peace, there are also many secrets that no one knows.

The weather was overcast, as if it was about to rain, and the roar of thunder began to resound in the sky.

Two ninjas in black hooded coats made their way through the rocky hills.

One of the ninjas was carrying a large black cloth bag on his back.

"It's really worthy of being a shrine maiden', thanks to this woman, the intelligence station of Lord Tuanzang in Iwakuin Village will be established so quickly, so that this site can be used to continuously provide information to the village. However, she never imagined that she would be used as an outcast. ”

Said the ninja with the black bag on his back.

"It's precisely because she hasn't destroyed her kindness that she has come to this point, otherwise, with her ability to gather intelligence, she would have been able to be promoted to management."

Another ninja sighed.

For ninjas who grow in the roots, there is no kindness to the heart, and nothing can be achieved except to cause trouble for themselves.

They walk in the darkness of the world and don't need too much emotion.

In contrast, as long as you can protect Konoha well, this sacrifice is worth it.

Doesn't that imp need to be brought back with him? He also seems to have a talent for doing intermittent classes. “

That kid gave it to Orochimaru, and this is a deal between Danzo-sama and Orochimaru. Besides, as long as the shrine maiden is brought back, that kid will only be reduced to an obedient tool in the hands of Lord Danzo. “

"In that case, let's hurry up, there is more important work ahead. Conservative guys,

It's getting more and more useless. At a critical time, it is still necessary for Lord Tuanzang to preside over the overall situation. “

Thinking of the tightness of the Yunyin battlefield, the thinker who was the root was also very nervous.

It is unknown how far this war will last, and how many years it will take for Konoha to recover after the war.

At this moment, a cold voice sounded beside the two of them:

I'm very interested in what you just talked about, can you talk a little bit about it? “

The two ninjas at the root tightened their bodies and turned their heads in shock.

"What—One"

Before a person could speak, what appeared in front of them was a pair of eyes that shimmered red,

Three pitch-black magatama swirled in their pupils, releasing powerful pupil power.

"Writing wheels, you are ......

The two root ninjas tried to resist, but their bodies gradually weakened, and their eyes under the masks became more and more distracted, and then they became sluggish, fixed to the ground like wooden stakes, motionless.

It's really worthy of Liuli, and you subdued them all at once. “

Seeing that the two root ninjas were easily subdued, a man in a white gown walked out from the side and smiled at the woman holding the writing wheel.

It's just two minions, and the interrogation will be handed over to you. I didn't expect to come out on a trip and have such an unexpected joy. ”

"Don't worry, it's not that simple to find out the secrets in their heads, I'm more interested in what they carry on them than this." “

Shiraishi, who was wearing a white coat, walked up behind a root ninja and took down the black cloth bag that the other person was carrying behind his back.

The black cloth bag was very large, and the weight of the contents was also heavy, so I could tell Shiraishi by feeling that it was a person inside.

After gently placing it on the ground. Unzipped it, and a pale woman's face was revealed in the black cloth bag, with a beautiful and clean face, wearing a pair of round-framed glasses that were a little rustic. He wears a forehead guard from the Iwakushi Ninja on his forehead.

"Woman? Is she already dead? ”

Liuli frowned and glanced at this woman, and she couldn't feel the breath of a living person on the other party,

Shiraishi reached out and touched the woman's face, feeling very cold, and then said, "No, there is still one breath left." “

Then he looked at the wound on the woman's chest with a strange expression.

What's wrong? ”

Her wound here was treated, but the wound was only half treated, and the other party ended the treatment, but fortunately, she was temporarily suspended from her last breath, so she did not die directly. “

"Only halfway through the treatment? That's a bit strange indeed, but, the people of the roots, what are you going to do with the Iwakuin ninja? ”

Ruri wondered about this.

Shiraishi carefully examined the woman's face and pinched it again with his hand, so that the woman who had only one breath left put on a variety of rich expressions on her face.

His behavior made Liuli's face instantly cold.

"I know this woman is beautiful, but you don't have to be in heat with a dying person, right?"

"Where do you want to go? I just thought this woman was a little familiar, and I fiddled with the expression on the ground to make it easier for me to recall. “

Shiraishi looked back at Ruri speechlessly.

Ruri sneered, expressing half-belief in Shiraishi's words.

"Sure enough, it's her."

Shiraishi ignored Ruri's sneer, and said softly.

Just now, he recognized the identity of this woman,

"She?"

Ruri asked with interest.

Unlike Shiraishi, she didn't have the slightest impression of the woman in front of her.

"Well, this woman's name is Yakushi Nonoji, and she is a Konoha ninja. When I was a student at Ninja School, she was a transfer student in Tsunade-sensei's class, but she didn't study medical ninjutsu for long before she left school. Later, I heard that she had been transferred to a relatively unpopular department in the village, so I rarely met with her, and then I didn't know what to do......

Looking at the two root ninjas who were fixed by Shuli with illusions, Shiraishi thought thoughtfully,

"So it seems that it has something to do with that guy in Tuanzang? From the conversation between the two just now, it can be inferred that Yakushi Ye Naiyu has been lurking in Iwakuin Village for a long time, and has become an intermediary to convey information to Konoha Suke, but in the end, due to some special reasons, he was disposed of as an outcast by Tuan Zang. “

"The life experience in that place is really colorful. But. It's the first time I've heard of the layoffs within the roots. ”

When Rurui heard Shiraishi's reasoning, he had another layer of understanding of the roots.

Maybe it's because of the differences in ideas between the two sides. If something goes wrong, you will be expelled by the group. Because of this, I have not been able to penetrate the roots and know what is going on inside them all these years. Trying to break into them is too much sacrifice for the intelligence officer. “

Shiraishi shook his head helplessly.

As he spoke, he took Ye Naiyu out of the black cloth bag, slowly laid it flat on the ground, pressed his hands lightly on the other party's chest, and entered his immortal chakra into the other party's body, and began to treat Ye Naiyu's injuries.

Replace the rest of the medical ninjas, it is likely that in this case, judge that the other party has no treatment: necessary,

Just a waste of time and chakra.

But for Shiraishi. The condition of Nonozi is not to the point where it really can't be saved.

The medical immortal technique he used can restore the immortal chakra into the original life energy for the human body to absorb, as long as he does not die completely, even if there is a breath left, Bai Shi is confident that he will pull the other party back from the ghost gate and successfully save him.

For him, a serious injury on the verge of death is no different from a minor injury. The difference is only in the amount of chakra consumed by the two, and there is a certain difference.

Ruri didn't disturb Shiraishi's medical work, and stood aside and waited quietly.

About five minutes later, Shiraishi's hands left Nonoi's chest, ending his treatment.

He exhaled lightly, and saw that Ye Naiyu's originally pale face finally appeared with a hint of ruddy that a living person should have. With a satisfied smile,

"How's it going?"

Well, let her rest after that and she will recover. Next, it's the turn of the two root ninjas, hoping that they can provide more information about the root in their heads. ”

Shiraishi stood up and walked towards the two root ninjas.

For Shiraishi, who has always wanted to know the inside of the roots, this is undoubtedly a good opportunity to obtain information about the roots.

Open your eyes.

Ye Naiyu felt that her whole body was twitching bitterly, but she still tried to sit up from the bed, looking ahead with empty eyes, and her whole person looked like a person who had lost her soul.

Whether it is on his face or in his eyes, it is a lifeless look.

As a living person, she seems to be no different from a dead person now,

Your expression is funny, if you don't mind. Can you talk to me? “

The man leaned against the white wall, wearing the white coat of a medical officer, and looked at the other person's lifeless face, as if it was very interesting.

Ye Naiyu turned his head, his gaze lingering on Shiraishi for a while, then retracted his gaze and continued to look ahead in a daze.

Even if he is disposed of as an outcast by Tuan Zang, there is no need to be so pessimistic about life, right? In a way, you're free, aren't you? ”

Regarding Bai Shi's ridicule, Ye Naiyu just touched his forehead in pain, and muttered in a dejected tone:

"That kid... Spectacles... Pouch... Name...

Constantly recalling and chewing on these words that make people feel inexplicable, the expression on Ye Naiyu's face shows a more numb and desperate look.

I seem to have done something unforgivable,

That child's thing, I shouldn't forget.

By the way, who is that kid? Who am I?

Is it a Konoha ninja?

Root staff?

Is it an orphanage director?

Or the ninjas of Sand Hide, Cloud Hide, Rock Hide, and Fog Hide?

All kinds of identities and personalities are constantly intertwined in Nonoyu's mind, intertwined with each other.

Ye Naiyu looked down at his white palms, and an unprecedented blank look appeared in his eyes.

"Who am I?"

Seeing Ye Naiyu's appearance, Bai Shi shook his head slightly and said:

"If you call the medicine master to ask Nonoyu, you are a Konoha ninja."

"I'm Yakushi Nonoyu? Konoha ninja? ”

Ye Naiyu began to think about the authenticity of this answer, and completely ignored Shiraishi's existence.

Seeing this, Shiraishi had no choice but to sigh and turn around and leave the ward.

A month has passed.

When he has free time, Shiraishi will still come to Ye Naiyu's hospital room, and Ditian.

Compared with a month ago, the numbness on Nonoyu's face disappeared a lot.

She sat by the window of the hospital room, quietly looking at the blooming flowers in the pot,

Hearing the movement behind her, she turned her head and smiled, "You're here."

The smile is full of love and kindness, as if it is the cleanest smile in the world, without a trace of impurities, but in Shiraishi's view, Ye Naiyu's smile is more like a manifestation of maternal love.

Xing Ran's smile looks very fake at the moment, without any sincerity, like an actor with superb acting skills.

In mimicking the emotional world of one of her personalities, and using this to establish a connection with the real world.

"It's very good about your treatment, keep that mindset, and it won't be long before you can be discharged from the hospital."

Hearing Shiraishi's words, Ye Naiyu was still smiling, so that Shiraishi couldn't tell what her smile meant.

This kind of smile of hers is more hypocritical than a fake smile.

"Really? That's great... Now that I think about it, if I could recognize that kid at that time...

Ye Naiyu sighed in frustration after Weimei, his eyes were full of loneliness and.

The kid? ”

Shiraishi stung Nonoyu.

Ye Naiyu shook his head, sighed, raised some white demon lips, didn't say anything, just looked at the flowers in the flower pot, and began to be in a daze.

After that, about half a month passed.

Wearing a white hospital gown, Ye Naiyu sat next to the hospital flower pond, and there were frolicking children not far away, she looked at this group of children who released their nature, and her eyes couldn't help but show a soft color.

"Miss Nonoyu, do you like children very much?"

The nurse who followed Ye Naiyu's side, seeing the gentle smile in Ye Naiyu's eyes, asked curiously,

"yes, don't you think these little kids look like angels when they laugh?"

"Angels? It doesn't feel like it, they're just too naughty, and a lot of the time they increase the workload of our nurses. It's not a place to play. It's more like a group of troublemakers than angels. “

The nurse began to complain, using figurative examples to refer to the naughty children.

"As long as they are earnest, they will become good children."

Nonoyu said.

"Miss Nonoyu seems to know children very well?"

"Hmm... I used to work in orphanages for a long time. “

Nonoyu remembered something and replied.

"I see, but the children in the orphanage are not the same as these naughty imps."

The nurse said.

"It's really different, the nature of the children here is too lively, they must not have suffered too much. And the children in the orphanage, how to say, are well-behaved and distressing. “

In this way, Miss Nonoyu, you are really gentle. ”

Is the nurse heartfelt and gentle?

Ye Naiyu looked at the blue sky above him, and the smile on his face began to slowly converge, falling into silence.

"What's wrong?

It's nothing. I just don't think the word gentle is right for me. ”

Ye Naiyu lowered his head and said.

How so? I see that the children here love you very much. ”

The nurse asked, puzzled.

But I forgot the child's name, and what it looked like... Those glasses... It's obviously a gift from me to him..."

Looking at Ye Naiyu, who was caught in self-blame, the nurse didn't know how to comfort her, so she had to stay on the side and not speak.

"I want to work."

In the office, Shiraishi was slightly surprised when he heard Ye Naiyu make such a request.

However, Shiraishi quickly calmed down, put down the pen in his hand gently, and said, "As a medical ninja,

You should be aware that you are not going to be exposed to any work for the time being. Moreover, the intelligence work of the country of ghosts,

It's not as heavy as you think. If you want to use the intelligence work of the Oni Country to recreate a false identity and personality for yourself, and find a reason to live for yourself... Sorry to disappoint you. I don't offer anything like that. “

However, if it weren't for the ability to see me, as a Konoha ninja, why would you teach me?

Nonoyu looked at Shiraishi in confusion.

In her opinion, the reason why Shiraishi saved her must be because of her strong business ability as an interstitial disc worker.

Only in this way can her role be fully brought into play.

She has the value of being rescued and co-opted.

What's more, she is used to such sex.

From the moment she was abandoned by Tuan Zang, she already understood that becoming a spy was the only way for her to live, the director of the orphanage... That's not who you really are.

That's just a false personality in my life that may not exist.

And to ask questions for Shiraishi, this is the only way that Ye Naiyu thinks can repay Shiraishi.

After all, she is now homeless.

This is the only place where she can be taken in.

"I'm a little curious, isn't there any other way of life in your life than being a spy?"

Shiraishi asked.

No, it's a philosophy I've been taught since I was a kid that I don't know what I can do now other than become a spy. ”

Nono said decisively

"In that case, then why did you rebel against Tuan Zang and get to the point of being abandoned by him?"

Regarding Shiraishi's question, Nonoyu was silent,

This is a question she can't answer.

Sometimes, even she finds it strange.

I was instilled with all kinds of intermittent knowledge since I was a child, and I should have died for the great cause of the roots...

Why did such a self later criticize the order of the root and go against the will of the ninja dark?

"You're not a good fit for the job of a class."

Shiraishi stared at Ye Naiyu's face and said this sentence seriously,

Ye Naiyu's face was pale.

Shiraishi's words surprised her.

Since childhood, she has absorbed the knowledge of various spies and has grown up. And she didn't disappoint the roots.,When she grew up, she got her wish to become an excellent spy.,Lurking in various countries and ninja villages.,Obtained a lot of confidential information for the root organization.,So that the root leader Shimura Danzou is highly appreciated.。

But the person who said that she was not suitable for intermittent work, Shiraishi was definitely the first and only one.

Shiraishi looked directly at Ye Naiyu, and in his pitch-black pupils, his gaze stabbed at Ye Naiyu's body like a blade.

Maybe you used to be an excellent classmate, but that's just your past. When you rebel against Danzo's will to follow your true self, you are a failure. You rely on intermittent work,

To find a reason to live, in my opinion, it's ridiculous. You just don't want to face the reality of the world again, and you're afraid of losing the things that are so precious to you again,"

As if Shiraishi had seen through all his thoughts, Nonoiyu lowered his head deeply, not wanting Shiraishi to see his constantly dodging eyes.

And this action of hers also really exposes the hollowness of her heart,

If you really can't find something to do, I suggest you go to the shrine and practice with the shrine maidens there. ”

Shiraishi thought for a moment and suggested.

Shrine? ”

Ye Naiyu was puzzled.

The environment of the shrine is perfect for self-cultivation, and you can let go of all your worries and get a closer look at the real side of the world. Moreover, the power in your hands, in addition to being able to hurt others, does not you also have the ability to save others? ”

Ye Naiyu thought it was a little funny, but he couldn't laugh at all.

She seems to have forgotten the fact that she is still a skilled medical ninja.

"So, now you're just a failed conspiracy. It's in your nature that makes you reject the work of intermittent classes. If you continue to be placed in the post of spy, sooner or later you will carry me again, like the newspaper group. “

Shiraishi affirms that this possibility exists

"I seem to have a bit of a sense of it."

Ye Naiyu said with a wry smile,

She never thought that she would one day work in the job search intermittent class.

They will be despised and rejected by others.

The new boss's approach seems to be a bit special.

However, this way of rejecting her land, Ye Naiyu doesn't feel bad.

Perhaps, as Shiraishi said, her nature as a human being is fundamentally in the work of recess classes.

So, should I change my name to Shiraishi-sama now? ”

Let's talk about it after you've affirmed your true self and officially joined the company. Now I don't like your smirking face very much, it's like a soulless doll, worthless. “

"Are you mad about that?"

"Your question is strange, who do you think would be angry with an empty shell?

Shiraishi's rhetorical question made Ye Naiyu really smile bitterly this time

"Pocket...

From the timeline to the present, Shiraishi looked at the candidate's information, and this smiling face that was basically the same as Ye Naiyu in the past, fell into deep thought,

Although judging from the name alone, it is not possible to determine what kind of relationship this candidate called "Medicine Master Dou" has with Ye Naiyu, but Ye Naiyu did mention the word "Dou" in the past, and the surname of Pharmacist...

Shiraishi doesn't know much about Nonoyu's past.

Because Ye Naiyu rarely mentions his past in front of people.

What Shiraishi learned from Nonoyu was limited to the information of the roots.

The rest of the things belonged to Ye Naiyu's own private affairs, and Shiraishi didn't have the idea of exploring it.

However, Shiraishi has always known that since then, Nonoyu has obviously reconfirmed her true self, but the knot in her heart has not been completely untied.

In her heart, she was still avoiding some things that she didn't want to recall.

The wandering witch is a job she deliberately chose to paralyze the past. Only by constantly devoting one's limited time to work can you prevent yourself from thinking about the double-sided class between Root and Orochimaru? It's like repeating Nonoyu's life..."
