The front of the big green tree.

The light under the street lamp is dim and faint.

An old couple and wife who had returned from visiting a friend stopped in front of the big green tree, and Yamanaka turned his head to look in the direction of the big green tree, pointed behind the green tree, and wondered.

"Rino, how did I hear someone crying?"

Rino Yamanaka turned his head to look at Aoki for a few seconds, and said with a slight turn in his eyes.

"Yes, then you can go over and have a look."

"Okay." Yamanaka Hai answered, and raised his feet and walked over there.

On the back of the big green tree, the moment Ino heard his father's voice, his brain went blank.

She let go of Naruto so violently that the sobbing suddenly stopped, but the sudden silence made her body tremble slightly, and the tears still flowed.

Listening to his father's footsteps becoming clearer and clearer, Ino's heart beat wildly, and he was so nervous that his hands hooked Naruto's neck. He tried his best to lower his voice in his ear and asked anxiously.

"What should I do?"

Naruto didn't answer, he just grabbed Ino and brought it to the side, and he could hear Ino's heartbeat violently. Ino's reaction was loud and he was short of breath, so he took Ino's hand.

The temperature from the palm of his hand slightly calmed Ino, and at this time, the footsteps of Kaichi Yamanaka were also close at hand. The two of them could feel that as long as Yamanaka took two steps forward, they could find the two who had no way to retreat.

At this time, the voice of Rino in the mountains not far away suddenly sounded.

"Haiyi, that kid from Ino seems to be in the store."

"Huh?" Hearing this, Yamanaka turned his head to look at his wife, "Ino is still catching up on sleep in the afternoon, has she woken up now?" ”

Behind the big green tree, Ino covered her mouth tightly, and her father's voice was only two meters away from her, shielded by the big green tree as a barrier.

"Let's go back and take a look first, that kid is too a mission." Rino Yamanaka chuckled.

"Okay."

As soon as Yamanaka finished speaking, he turned around and walked back, and the footsteps slowly faded away.

"I'm going back!" Ino shook his hand away, stammering step by step out of the shadow of the big green tree, "You, you"

Turning his face too quickly, Naruto was a little speechless at Ino, watching her say for a long time, you can't tell why, and then Ino simply turned around and ran away with a red face.

Half a minute later, Naruto also stepped out from under the big green tree, stood under the tree and looked at the brightly lit Yamanaka flower shop for a while, then turned to leave.

Taking advantage of the night, he took advantage of the night to buy some food along Konoha Street and take it home, and the street was lined with shops like light strips. Naruto blended into the crowd, his expression wandering back and forth at the food stalls on the street.

The sound of hot oil bubbling and the noisy crowd in front of the brightly lit stalls.

"Yes, I want that takoyaki and that" He pointed to the golden food, and for a moment he couldn't remember the name, and his words were frozen in place.

"Tempura." Someone behind him reminded.

"yes, that's it." Naruto echoed, but froze the moment he turned his head.

"What's your expression? Surprised to see me? Sakura asked with a smile.

Her eyes narrowed into a crescent moon, her short pink hair, and her cyan pupils reflected the bright lights and Naruto's surprised face.

The skin is snow-white, and the bare arms are like lotus roots, which naturally hang down to the side.

"No, Sakura-chan. Didn't you practice with Tsunade at Konoha Hospital? Naruto remembered the situation in the duty room last month, slightly embarrassed.

Her sentence of who Sasuke was, it really shocked him.

Later, the task was heavy, so he simply hid and disappeared. The seventh class is missing Sasuke, and Brother Kazi is favored by Tsunade as a successor to cultivate, busy studying and brushing tasks to accumulate qualifications, and has no time to discipline them.

Sakura entered Tsunade's medical class for further study, while Naruto, as a temporary worker in Konoha, flexibly interspersed various shinobi shifts to carry out tasks.

In general, the situation in the seventh class is: the rebellious Sasuke dropped out of school and went to the sea to take revenge, Sakura took the initiative to go ashore for graduate school, and the original tutor Kakashi was forced to study for a doctorate, and only Naruto, a street slicker, was half-dead and couldn't get in, so he couldn't finish his studies.

"I happened to be resting today, so I went out to shop alone." Sakura smiled naturally, as if she didn't remember what happened some time ago.

"But Naruto, you've been very busy lately, it's been a long time since I've seen you and Kakashi-sensei."

"During the Zhongnin exam, the village had a backlog of tasks, and there was nothing to be done if they were busy." Naruto scratched his face and chatted calmly.

"Guest, your takoyaki and tempura are ready!"

"Oooh, thank you."

Naruto reached out to pay and took the food from his boss. Turning his head to look at Sakura, he originally wanted to find a reason to run away, but he grabbed his clothes in advance and told him.

"My share will be fine soon, you wait for me."

"Amount"

Naruto, who was interrupted by Sakura in advance and couldn't slip away, had to stand aside and wait. Within a few minutes, Sakura walked out of the crowd holding the takoyaki and blowing hot air.

"Come with me." She laughed.

"Okay." Naruto thought about it for a moment and complied.

The night view of Konoha Street is not pretty, and it is even a little monotonous, and the dim lights of all colors seem to be in arrears. There were no stars or moon in the sky, and it was gray.

Naruto walked in front with his food in his hand, his other hand in his pocket. Sakura was a step behind him, following unhurriedly. Blowing in a small mouth, the steaming octopus is burned and sent to the mouth.

"Aren't you going to eat?" Sakura's voice came from behind.

"I have a dog at home, and I will tear it down with him when I go back." Naruto replied in a lazy voice.

"Is it cute?"

"Doesn't count, does it? It's kind of scary. He thought for a moment and said.

Sakura snorted and laughed, "Terrible? What strange things have you raised? ”

"I picked it up on the side of the road, and I was a little scared."

"Naruto." Sakura suddenly stopped and called his name very formally.

"Huh?" Naruto stopped, and at this time he had already distanced himself from Sakura by four or five meters, and looked at her from afar, "What's wrong?" ”

"You're avoiding me?"

"Nope." Naruto denied it, but the super long distance between the two said it all, "I just don't want to get in trouble, do you remember Sasuke?" ”

"Hmm," Sakura frowned, "do you ask me or her?" ”

"What do you mean?" Naruto's eyelids fluttered slightly.

"That Sakura you know, she's hiding." Sakura's eyebrows were crooked, a smile was on her face, and she pointed to her head and said, "I still remember Sasuke-kun." ”

"Oh, that's a shame." Naruto pulled his leg and left.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps behind him, and Sakura ran up to him to stop him, "Why are you reacting like this?" ”

"I don't know you well, so I don't have anything to say." Naruto looked completely indifferent.
