Chapter 24: Notes, Bonds!
Araki ran out towards the place of cultivation along the way, occasionally sliding some pepper as he left.
The pepper is scattered in the air and stained on the branches, providing a choking odor that can interfere with some tracking.
It's just that......
Now Araki is not spilling this pepper to mask the smell.
This is to provide the smell!
Araki and Hinata Sora took a different path when they came, and now his only son left is the current path, which is fundamentally different.
The smell of these peppers may or may not be discovered later, in short, it can be disturbed a little more.
There's always nothing wrong with prudence!
Araki didn't sprinkle pepper all the time, as if he was pulling a thread, but instead provided a line, but every other area, he spilled some.
It wasn't until he returned to the more prosperous part of the village that he stopped sprinkling pepper.
It's getting late now.
Many of the shops in the village were still open, and the dim light shone dimly in the night.
Occasionally, some laughter can be heard inside.
Compared to the real world, Konoha Village is not very civilized, more like an ancient period, but the nightlife time is not weaker than that of a modern city.
The main reason is that many of the missions that go out on a mission are very late when they return to the village, and the shop lasts longer, which can not only provide food for these ninjas, but also earn a certain amount of income.
When the ninja is out on a mission, almost all they eat are special food pills for hunger, there is no special taste, after the task is completed, the relaxed heart will make the body feel a strong sense of exhaustion, and there is no resistance in front of the food.
Araki walked through the lively area, he had no intention of eating here at all, it was just enough to intend to channel the smell to this side.
The noisy area has a large number of people, which can increase the number of suspects, which has a greater impact on the detection of the security department.
Of course......
Araki didn't think that the garrison would find out about Hinata's boneyard.
Soon.
Araki walked through the center of the village and returned to the forest.
Those previous fast runs did not bring him much physical exertion, and the magnitude of that consumption was not as fast as the previous cultivation.
Many times, Araki has to deliberately reduce his speed to cater to Hinata's pursuit, otherwise it will be easy to throw Hinata away.
"Keep practicing!"
Araki returned to the area where he practiced every day, and he didn't feel any of the following, and his heart returned to a comfortable state, and the whole person seemed to be thrown into the embrace of nature, and began to sweat and practice hard.
……
The next day, early in the morning.
Araki stepped on the earth reflected in the morning light and returned to his residence.
In fact, Jiushina's living here did not have any impact on his life, after all, he used to not go home every night.
When he walked to the door, he immediately saw the schoolbag at the door, as well as a note.
"Huh?"
Araki recognized it at a glance as his school bag, and it was placed outside the door in such a grand manner, it must have been done by Kushina.
"I'm not afraid of being stolen ......"
Araki smiled helplessly, he found that Kushina trusted the people in the village too much, and this is not a world without thieves, there are also many crimes in Konoha Village, and theft is also a common occurrence.
Although there is nothing special in his schoolbag, if the book is lost, he still has to buy it again, and there is a key pressed on the note on the schoolbag, which is the key to his house.
"Is this gone?"
The moment Araki saw the key, his eyes suddenly lit up, if Kushina left here and went to another residence, then it would actually be a more relaxed and liberating option for him.
Come to think of it.
Araki immediately looked at the note.
【Araki:
I have some things to do in the last few days, I can't go home or go to school, you don't need to worry about me, the school side has already taken a vacation.
This key is your key, you forgot to bring it when you went out last night, I left the key here, I'm afraid that you won't be able to go home when I'm not there.
If all goes well, I'll be back in a few days.
If I don't come back......
You must get out of the haze, embrace a better life, try to make friends, get more people's recognition, and find the value of existence.
Your friend, Kushina]
After reading the words on the note, Araki has to say that Kushina's handwriting is really good-looking, and the small characters of Juan Xiu with one stroke at a glance can't see the arrogant character on weekdays, more like a gentle and careful little girl.
"Thank you."
Araki read the words again and silently spat out these two words.
The content of the text is simple.
There is nothing particularly incendiary.
Just simple care.
But......
Araki felt an indescribable warmth in these words of concern.
He doesn't need to care, he doesn't need to understand, he doesn't need to be recognized, he has his own plan, and he executes it step by step.
No matter what, outsiders can't affect him.
Araki's own psychological quality is very strong, plus he is a time-traveler, and his sense of immersion in the ninja world is different from that of the natives here, so he can look at this world from a more detached perspective.
Rao is so......
Araki still feels warm in Kushina's words.
"She should have gone to replace Mito as the container of the Nine-Tails, and left me this note before leaving, obviously she didn't know about her future and life and death, but she still cared about me......"
Araki shook his head and smiled bitterly, he knew very well in his heart that the existence of this note had completely brought the relationship between the two of them closer.
It's not a superficial relationship, but an inner relationship, in the words of a ninja, a bond.
Araki has been hiding and doesn't want to establish any bonds with Kushina, because that kind of thing might cause him more trouble.
But when he was reading the note.
For a moment.
It gives him an urge to be desperate for trouble.
Although this impulse only appeared for a moment and disappeared, it made Araki's heart deeply understand that the bond between him and Kushina had indeed undergone a transformation.
The next moment.
Araki put the note in the Shinobi bag, along with the key to his house.
Followed by.
He picked up his bag.
Walk in the direction of the ninja school......
