"What are you going home for?" Naruto leaned back in his soft chair and glanced at him slowly with the juice, "After today, it will be difficult for you to see me." ”

"Still have a mission at this time?" Ding Ci was a little stunned, his small eyes narrowed, and there was only one slit left.

"If you don't have a task, you just stay at home." He said shamelessly, "I'll be sixteen after the New Year, and I don't want to be caught, so I just squat at home." ”

"What's your excuse?" Ding Ji was a little speechless, "You can't be talking about Tsunade-sama, right?" ”

"Who else but her." Naruto looked nonchalant and was about to reach for the barbecue when he was slapped by Ino.

"Not ripe." She said, then turned her head to look at him seriously and frowned, "You can't really not participate in any tasks, can you?" ”

"If you go on like this, don't talk about the upper ninja, the rating of the middle ninja will have to be withdrawn."

"No, it won't." Naruto lay back, looking like he didn't eat oil and salt, "No one offends me at this time, anyway, I am."

"Ah!! What are you doing, Ino! ”

Ino grabbed him and glared at him like this, "Didn't you say that no one could offend you?" ”

Prince Konoha broke the gong on the spot, and suddenly froze.

"After my New Year's festival, I'll go to the Hokage Building to report, it's all right."

"Hmph."

Ding Ci ate the barbecue sourly, and he didn't know what the situation was with these two people, so he simply didn't think about it. Seeing that the barbecue on the table was already cooked, he directly opened the bow left and right with a pair of chopsticks in one hand.

Eat these two big dogs!

Three big dog families who were not short of money sat in the barbecue restaurant and ate and drank from afternoon to evening. Naruto and Ino sat together in the open, the lights above their heads shining brightly.

The two of them were bored watching Ding Ci's super-level performance, destroying the barbecue plate after plate. Until the end, Ding Ci looked at the mountains of plates and touched his belly with satisfaction.

"Hiccup, full." He said.

Naruto was about to get up to pay, but was pulled by Ino, and looked back to see Ino's worried look at him.

"I'll pay for it." She said.

"Okay." Naruto sat down and got out of the way for Ino to get up and pay.

"Naruto." Ding Ci looked at him directly, and he was almost so aggrieved that he bit the handkerchief, "So I ate all afternoon, and I didn't eat a penny on you?" ”

"What? Want to eat until I'm bankrupt? Naruto leaned back in his chair as if his bones had turned into bones, his voice a little drowsy, but his smile was very shy.

"You let Ino pay? Damn, isn't that a foul? Ding Ci squinted his eyes and said.

"I didn't say I was paying, but Ino said he invited us to eat barbecue." Naruto was smiling, with a smug face, but he was unhurried and had no temper with him.

"Next time, next time I'll pay."

"I'm convinced." Ding Ci raised a chubby middle finger.

Ino has already paid the money, and the little rich woman is almost an adult, and she is not short of money at all. Yamanaka Haiichi has this one daughter, and he can't wait to hold it in the palm of his hand.

"Let's go." She stood heroically in the aisle, raised her index finger, and pointed in the direction of the door.

Snow was falling outside the barbecue shop.

The bright and dark Konoha Street is lit up with a few lights, and it is the time when the traffic is full. During the time when a few people were eating, they were discounted, and they just avoided the stall where people were crowded and queued.

Ding Ci was full, but he went home sourly. He plans to consult Shikamaru every few days about what it is like to have two good friends who have a better relationship than him.

Shikamaru will probably dislike it while telling him that life is too short to eat on time.

The New Year's festival is coming as promised.

Naruto couldn't spend all the money, so he simply bought a batch of gifts. It happened that I asked Ino to pay last time, and I had an excuse to ask her again, so I chose a bracelet.

The price is not too expensive, just to the extent that the identity above the friend and under the lover can be accepted.

In order not to be said to be partial, he bought all the gifts he could give. From high to low, I bought them all over, and I may not be able to give them away, but I am prepared.

The sending of casting a wide net is too public, so he is just prepared, and currently only plans to send two people quietly. The rest depends on the situation, if Ding times them

Tsk, the thought of gift-giving is troublesome, he's never done anything like that. So much so that I tossed and turned the night before the New Year's festival and didn't sleep well, and the next day I simply overslept.

When I woke up, it was almost dark, and there was a bang, and dazzling fireworks rose in the distance outside the window.

There was no light on in the room, and his mind was still a little drowsy.

When the glow of the fireworks flashed on his face, Naruto realized that it was already a New Year's festival. The gift could not be sent out during the day, and it was also his own subconscious trouble.

"I'll send it tomorrow." He slammed back down.

After a few more moments, the door was pushed open, and the bright light of the living room shone into the room. Nine-tails walked in with the steps of a Tom cat who didn't recognize his six relatives, and said with a special scowl.

"Buy takoyaki."

Naruto kicked it lightly, "Wait outside." ”

After tidying up, he squatted in the hallway to change his shoes, and the nine-tails opened the door in advance, standing at the door with an excited look. The brilliant fireworks in the night sky shone brightly and secretly in the entrance, a man tied his shoelaces, and a dog stood in front of the door.

How strange this picture is, the door slams shut, locking everything in the door.

A man and a dog went downstairs slowly, and ran hungrily to the lively Konoha Street. The shops lining the street were full of people, and the sound of shouting bottles colliding everywhere was heard.

Naruto and the Nine-Tails went around eating, bought takoyaki, and also bought a large wave of Nine-Tails exclusive liquor. A large number of people in yukata walked by, and they stood on the outskirts of the crowd and craned their necks to look in.

After eating and drinking, one person and one dog shook back slowly. The shadow stretched out in the light, and it seemed out of place in the lively world.

"How did you spend tonight?" Nine-Tails suddenly asked.

"Sleep, how else can you live?" Naruto glanced at the Nine-Tails and asked nonchalantly, "You tailed beasts also have a New Year's festival?" ”

"I don't even know what it is, though." Nine-Tails looked at no one around, so he simply stood up and walked on two legs, "But it seems that you humans can get by, aren't you?" ”

"We're one person and one dog, and we're fine." Naruto glanced at the Nine-Tails with fluttering eyes, "Or, this is the New Year, you will kowtow to me?" ”

"Sine!" Nine-tails raised a middle finger.

Naruto's eyebrows raised, and he suddenly remembered the middle finger that Ding Ji raised last time at the barbecue restaurant, this thing is still a trend, and it spreads fast enough.

Dragged upstairs, the Nine-Tails immediately shut up, and Naruto didn't care. It's just that it can't be scared, anyway, it doesn't suffer from him.

Standing in front of the door, he slowly took out the key from his pocket and found the key for a long time. Aimed at the keyhole and poked it in hard.

The door opened, and the light in the living room spilled out like a spider's web.

He was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and asked the Nine-Tails, "Before I went out, I turned off the lights, right?" ”

"How do I know?" Nine-tails muttered quietly and took the lead in stepping in, but before he was comfortable for a few seconds, he found a figure in the living room, and he was instantly frightened.

"Meow?"

Naruto stood outside the door and saw Ino standing there in a sweater with lilac fluff, and the fireworks in the sky seemed to run into her eyes alone, so bright.

"Why are you standing stupidly?" She frowned.
