Chapter 58: You're so nice
At noon, the five of them worked together, and all the preparations were done except for the fish.
Naruto patted Shikamaru on the shoulder from behind, and the latter looked back at him quizzically.
"Replace me."
Hearing this, Shikamaru stretched his face and stood up and said.
"It turns out that fishing is so difficult, no wonder I don't see my father fishing much."
"It's really hard."
Naruto chimed in, and then five fish were caught in five minutes, and Shikamaru's eyes were straight when he saw it.
"Fake, right? I see one of you didn't even hang the bait! ”
"I have a good relationship with that fish."
"Nonsense! How can there be such a thing! Shikamaru clutched his head and collapsed.
"If you don't believe it, it's better not to say it." Naruto continued to fish, and only stopped after catching a total of seven or eight fish.
Naruto was reeling in his fishing rod and preparing to go back when Shikamaru came over to help. Naruto simply handed him the fishing rod and asked him to clean it up himself. Shikamaru didn't refuse, one of the two stood by the river to collect the line, and the other stood and watched.
The cool mountain breeze blew, and the two of them suddenly felt cool.
Listening to the laughter of Sakura and Ino not far away, Naruto suddenly hit Shikamaru with a shoulder with emotion.
"What's wrong?"
"Don't you think that's what summer should really be like?" Naruto said.
"What does summer taste like?"
Shikamaru followed Naruto's gaze, Sakura and Ino were talking and laughing about grilled fish, and Dingji was sitting on the side eating potato chips. Behind it is the eye-catching mountain forest, and the cool breeze shuttles through it.
"Who do you like? Ino or Sakura? Shikamaru asked with a pair of dead fish eyes hanging on his head.
"I just love the summer vibe." Naruto turned to Shikamaru and said, "But I still prefer girls in skirts." ”
"Does it make a difference?" Shikamaru showed the same expression as his father, "Women are the most troublesome." ”
"Of course there is a difference, youth and fat are inseparable." Naruto said casually, looking around boredly, "Speaking of which, the ninja profession is really not very good, and I will definitely change my profession when I become an adult." ”
"What kind of career?" Shikamaru had too many grooves to vomit, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"The kind that can travel around the world, surfing everywhere."
"I don't want to hit you, Naruto, you're still a member of the village." Shikamaru put his arm around Naruto's neck and said in a low voice, "Don't talk to me about ninjas, don't just talk to others." ”
"Got it." Naruto nodded helplessly. "But it's really unwilling to shrink into this village for the rest of my life."
"There will be missions, and there will be opportunities to go out." Shikamaru scratched his head and said, "If you think about it, we will probably be like my father's generation, and we will never leave this village for the rest of our lives. ”
"I don't seem to be reconciled, to be precise, my dream is to live an ordinary life. Marry an ordinary wife and repeat some ordinary things every day. ”
"Cut." Naruto brushed Shikamaru's hand away and muttered, "Generally speaking, people who say this kind of thing only like beautiful beautiful girls the most. ”
"Naruto! Shikamaru! What are you two still doing? In the distance, Ino crossed his waist and waved at the two of them and shouted with a smile, "The fish is ready, and we have brought the materials for the barbecue, come and eat!" ”
"Good!" The two of them responded in unison and trotted over.
......
In the evening, the crowd dispersed.
Naruto hadn't walked far when he suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind him.
Konoha Street was brightly lit at this time, and all the shops were brightly lit, looking down from the sky like a strip of light running through Konoha.
Ino ran a little panting, and held on to the willow waist and said something and so on.
"What's the matter?" Naruto had been thinking about what Shikamaru said during the day, so his mood was not high.
"I heard Shikamaru say you want to leave the village in the future?" Ino asked a little nervously.
"Shikamaru told you?" Naruto asked, a little confused.
"I....... I forced him to say it. Ino squeezed his hands and said, "So you think so, right?" ”
"Hmm." Naruto didn't hide it.
"Why?"
Hearing this, Naruto didn't answer immediately, but took a step closer and carefully looked at Ino, his scrutinizing gaze as if he was looking at a work of art.
"Why do you see me like that?" Ino took a step back and asked with a slight panic.
At the same time, she also began to regret in her heart, why she was so impulsive. It's just a thought, and I really caught up and asked, it's so embarrassing!
"Ino, you're so nice."
"Huh? How........ Suddenly..... Say something like that? Ino's face turned red instantly, his hands crossed and twisted together, and his whole speech became stammering.
Faced with the sudden compliment, she was a little overwhelmed.
Naruto said this completely from the heart, and Ino was one of the few emotionally intelligent and sincere ninjas he had ever met. It turned out that she would really run so far in the opposite direction to keep up with her because she was worried about a friend.
At this time, Naruto's direction was not to go home, and there was Hokage Rock in front of him.
"Actually, I don't know it myself, so I don't know how to answer your question." Naruto Masasei said, "At least I have no plans to leave the village in the past few years, and there may be in the future, and that will be for the future." ”
Hearing this, Ino felt a little relieved and said with a red face.
"I mean, what if....... If you have someone you like in the future, will you stay for her? ”
"I might prefer freedom." Naruto felt that it would be better not to let Ino have expectations for him, saying that it would be troublesome if he couldn't do it.
"I see."
"Hmm." Naruto nodded, glanced in the direction of Hokage Rock and suggested to Ino, "It's all here, let's go up and walk." ”
Ino didn't object, silently following behind Naruto. The girl didn't say a word, and seemed extraordinarily quiet, and Naruto thought that it seemed that the matter was over.
Perhaps because Naruto has been eating meat and drinking milk a lot recently, he is already on the same level as Ino, and the figures of the two are walking on the mountain road one after the other.
The lights on the Hokage Rock are bright, and the walls of the mountain path are wrapped with small colored lights.
Looking at the Hokage Rock that was close at hand, Naruto suddenly remembered Tayuya, and wondered if the guy had eaten properly after leaving him. Before that, those four didn't seem to be good at pretending to survive other than fighting.
"Now, do you want to eat red bean balls?" Ino quickly followed a few steps and handed over a bag of packaged balls.
"Eat." Naruto nodded violently, the red bean balls were very sweet, and he wouldn't get tired of eating a few skewers once in a while.
Seeing that Naruto was happy, Ino also smiled and handed over a few strings of red bean balls and said.
"Here, I saw you like it last time."
"Thank you, Ino." Naruto took a bite and said vaguely, "I haven't eaten it before." ”
He said that he had never tried before crossing over, and then he never had a chance to open his eyes and come to this world.
But what Ino thought was before Naruto grew up. The hand holding the bamboo skewer shook slightly, and his lips pursed slightly.
