"What?"

Nohara Nao was stunned, she stared at the purple bracers in Naruto's hand, and suddenly became a little speechless. For a while, I was a little bored, and complex emotions came to my mind.

She had thought that Naruto was waiting here to talk, and she didn't think he had any good intentions. While scolding in his heart, he was about to perfunctory him.

Who knew that he took out a bracer with his backhand and put it in the palm of his hand.

Only then did she have the heart to look at Naruto carefully, to be precise, at Kitahiko's appearance. The plain face is actually a little more pleasing to the eye, and he is quite tall.

This is the charm of krypton, the blessing effect. When the average person has nothing to boast about, he will jump in his mind to evaluate, well. Yes, he's quite tall.

Naruto didn't care, seeing Nohara Nao looking at him, he knew in his heart that the money spent was not lost. It didn't show it on the face, but it was still sincere.

"You haven't changed your bracer when it's broken, I think you're probably nostalgic." "Bracers aren't valuable, but they continue to wear out." ”

"I remember that there are no special circumstances in the medical class, and medical ninjas are not allowed to wear bracers. This bracer is medically compliant, you ask, it should be able to be worn for a long time. ”

"Thank you, thank you." Nohara stammered a little, not because she was moved.

She's not stupid, if only a bracer could impress her. Then she was already followed by a group of people, and she just thought that this person was a little interesting.

At least it's not someone who tries to think through her in a few words, she has seen too many such people. If it weren't for the fact that my parents had some small forces, I am afraid that they would have been surrounded and pursued a long time ago.

However, the person in front of him looked a little cleaner than in the afternoon, and there were no distracting thoughts in his eyes, but it was a rare person who could say two words normally.

"Then let's do it first, I'll go back first." Naruto smiled, "My house is a little far away and a little broken, so I shouldn't be in the same direction as you." ”

"yes, okay." Nohara Nao was thinking about what to say in her heart, when she suddenly heard goodbye, answered and raised her head again, and couldn't help asking.

"Hey, where do you live?"

"To the south, over there in Huayin Lane." Naruto replied honestly.

"By the way, my house is also in that direction." Nohara Nao's mood suddenly improved, and her voice was also full of undulating emotions, with a happy expression on her face.

People are like this, they have a rebellious mentality.

Nohara Nao was already depressed in her heart, and the gentler her performance, the more serious it became. Every day, I meet some people who want to penetrate her, and I can't hide my mind at all.

Originally, she had a preconceived impression that she suddenly saw someone who was looking at her or something. She was suddenly relieved, and she happened to be on the way, and she had the idea of continuing the conversation.

In her opinion, Naruto's face was mediocre, and he didn't have any bad intentions. She was able to control Naruto, relying on her charm.

But when everything is in her control, it is not so repulsive. I don't like it, but I just think this opportunity is rare and I can breathe.

Naruto was brushed off at the beginning of her, and it was an impossible classification in Nohara's mind. Because of this, when Naruto showed that she didn't have any purpose, she had a desire to talk instead.

Human nature is cheap, Naruto looked up at her for a second, and in that second, Nohara Nao was worried for a moment. Worried that Naruto would refuse her, he turned his head back.

Bang bang.

Her heart beat twice, and she had a dry mouth.

Fortunately, Naruto quickly showed a gentle smile on his face, touched his face and said, "Okay." ”

Hunters all appear in the form of prey, Naruto silently thought about the indifference revealed in Nohara Nao's eyes at noon, and a little temptation took her temper by a third.

"Are you tired of working at the hospital?" Naruto and Sakura have been together for a long time, and they are more or less familiar with some topics of Konoha Hospital, and they have heard all kinds of troubles.

After saying this topic, it will not be embarrassing to move on to the next topic immediately. When Nohara Nao spoke, he listened silently.

You come and go, come and go, and Nohara Nao's words gradually increase. Sometimes the topic only needs one sentence, and then Nao Nohara is left alone to babble.

After talking a lot, she suddenly felt comfortable in her heart. It felt much happier than self-sufficiency, it was completely relaxed mentally, and my whole body felt a lot lighter.

"Well, that's true of hospitals." Naruto was still in agreement, his gaze slowly sweeping around.

"Hey, how are you so familiar with Konoha Hospital? Have you ever been a medical ninja before? Nohara Nao finally couldn't help but ask, and began to have a hint of curiosity about Naruto.

After all, although he didn't say much along the way, that is, he said a little more at the beginning. But every time she said the question, it resonated with her, and the topic changed well.

It's like. It's like he's worked in Konoha Hospital. It's clear everywhere, but occasionally there are some small details that don't match, but it's irrelevant.

"Oh, I have a friend who used to be a medical ninja." Naruto opened his mouth and came.

"Who? Do I know each other? She asked, curiously.

"Dead on the battlefield." Naruto said lightly, there was no proof of death in an instant, and no one would investigate this kind of thing.

"I'm sorry."

"No, you don't." He said.

Normally, at this point, the topic would get awkward, but Naruto didn't. After all, he just lied and picked up another topic at random.

While the two were chatting, they naturally talked about the future.

"You say, will there be a war in the village?" Nohara Nao's face was a little unsightly, and she asked worriedly.

"It's impossible to say for sure, it's just that you're a medical ninja." Naruto paused and said, "Normally, you don't need to go to the front line, it's relatively safe. ”

"That being said." Nohara Nao is actually a little embarrassed, she really doesn't want to go to the battlefield anymore, and the destruction of the whole team has left a great psychological shadow on her.

If it weren't for the desperate drag of her teammates, if it weren't for her luck, she left a scar on her body and came back from the dead, I'm afraid.

The picture of his teammates stained with blood all over his body was still vivid, and Nohara Nao's face instantly turned a few degrees whiter.

"What's wrong with you?"

"It's fine."

After a while, her face did improve, and then she asked kindly.

"What about you?"

"Me?" Naruto stopped and turned his head to look at her, "What am I?" ”

"Medical ninjas are relatively safe, but what about you?" Nohara Nao bit her lower lip and stayed with Naruto, feeling more relaxed.

There are many things that cannot be said, and now I can say a little more. This feeling made her feel very comfortable and let her suppressed emotions be released.

Naturally, she didn't want to see Naruto's corpse tomorrow or the next time.

Emotional value is irreplaceable, and emotions are almost an unsolvable puzzle. If no one understands, she can only stuff it all in her heart as before.

A little bit of backlogging, backlogging, can't be released.

After tasting the taste of emotional release, Nohara Nao is naturally reluctant to return to the old life. In her eyes, Naruto was her pressure relief valve.

"I'm like this, what else can I do." A wry smile appeared on Naruto's face, "Last time I was fatal, I don't know next time, so I'll leave it to my fate." ”

"People always have to die anyway, I'm just an ordinary middle ninja. The village sent a mission, so I naturally went with them. ”

"How about asking them to take care of you more?" She frowned, naturally taking Naruto as her own, and thought about it on the sidelines.

"Yamashiro Nobi seems to be quite strong, if he is willing to help you, maybe there is a better chance of surviving in case of danger."

"It's useless." There was no trace of performance on Naruto's face, "At the moment of life and death, whoever wants to do that kind of thing is an escape from death." ”

Hearing this, Nohara Nao was silent.

It's not good, but it's true. When people experience life and death for the first time, they may be afraid, radical, or even angry, and exchange death for the survival of their teammates.

But after escaping death, most people hesitate to face another death. It's human nature, and no one wants to die.

The two parted at the intersection and did not speak all night.

Even if he came, he was safe, but Naruto didn't recognize the bed, and he made do with it and slept to his heart's content. I didn't have the conditions to take a shower in the morning, so I just washed up and left.

There is no other task these days, it is Nao Monohara. Increasing his favorability little by little, he estimated that it would not be long before the cannon fodder squad would carry out the task.

Although the money in his pocket is cleaner than his face, fortunately, he has more than half a month of free ramen coupons, so he doesn't need to worry about eating them.

There are only two sets of clothes, and I take turns wearing them for the time being. He hasn't asked about the price of clothes, if he is cheated of money, the boss can be free directly.

For the rest of the money, he moved nearly two thousand taels out of the bath. Soak once a day at noon, not to mention anything else, personal hygiene issues should still be paid attention to.

The second is that he doesn't want to go back to that damp home when he has nothing to do, and spends most of his time hanging outside. Waiting for Nohara Nao to get off work, the excuse I made today was to borrow books from her.

Establish an image of being very keen on medical knowledge in advance, although he borrows books with his hands and turns the pages without looking at them, but the devil is always hidden in the details.

After two or three days like this, starting from the icebreaking of the wrist guards, the relationship between the two has been advancing rapidly. Even Nao Nohara began to look forward to meeting before he got off work, and he couldn't describe the feeling.

In the past, every time she got off work, she had a grave-like mentality, but after getting off work these days, she slowly had a smile on her face. I started looking forward to a relaxed atmosphere after work, and even thought about what topics I wanted to talk about in advance.

The people in the medical class also saw some signs, and joked with a smile to this little sister who cut in line halfway.

"What's going on?"

"Eh, I saw it last time I got off work, is that person your object?"

"I guess it's the first time. I saw that the man had been waiting for Nao several times, and the sentry had also said that they were squatting. ”

At first, she didn't feel anything when she was joking, and even joked to cater to her. Because she didn't care, and she didn't think Naruto that way.

But after a long time, good plantains can't withstand the erosion of heavy rain.

She was also gradually embarrassed, and occasionally heard the medical class make jokes about her, and Nohara Nao would tell the sisters not to say anything.

At the same time, while seeing Naruto every day, she also had a question in her heart.

What was that man's mind?

She didn't like Naruto either, but she didn't reject Naruto either. Originally, she wasn't interested in this kind of thing, she just needed Naruto to be by her side.

But the comments of her colleagues over the past few days made her a little panicked, thinking what if he heard these words one day and never came again?

Do you want to go to him yourself? I can't do such a thing myself, but if it really comes to that point, do you really want to return to the way it was?

Just thinking back to the feelings she had suppressed when she was alone, Nao Nohara felt her heart panic. Before I knew it, I was taken out of the darkness by him, and I never wanted to go back.

Instead of facing it passively, it is better to take the initiative to ask. No matter how bad it is, even if he has any ideas, if he can continue the current situation, even if it is given to him.

She gritted her teeth, and she had already made a decision in her heart. She is not a rigid person, she has to meet the right person, and she will not think about men and women at all during this period.

Heartbeat is already a thing of the past, and only those eldest ladies of aristocratic families will pursue any love at such a time and find someone they like to be with.

She just wants someone to continue to be with her, someone waiting for her every day. Even though she never had her heart moved, she really couldn't do without that person.

On the way, Naruto saw that Nao Nohara was absent-minded and asked her.

"What's wrong with you?"

"I didn't almost get distracted." She smiled, lowered her head and thought about it, raised her head and said half-jokingly, "The two of us walked together like this, and they saw it." ”

"Who are they?"

"Sisters in the medical class, you should have seen some of them usually, but they just didn't come up to say hello."

"Oh, what's wrong?" Naruto pretended to be ignorant.

"They. They were always making fun of us. Nohara said a little nervously, "I'm thinking, we. Rumors about you among us. You want to chase me. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a fluttering laugh beside her, as if she had endured it for a long time. Suddenly, Nohara Nao was a little embarrassed, and said in her heart, why are you laughing at me!

"What are you laughing at!!"

She turned her head sharply, only to see Naruto staring at the darkness in front of her and whispering softly.

"You just found out."

With a bang, Nohara turned her head away, feeling a little embarrassed. I don't know why, for a moment just now, I actually felt that Kitahiko's ordinary appearance was also quite good-looking.

"What are you?" Nohara Nao was a little embarrassed, lowered her head and kicked a stone, "Confession?" It's not romantic at all. ”

"Besides, I can't like you, I don't mean anything else. I just don't feel anything about that, not for you, not for anyone else."

"I like you." Naruto stopped and spoke in a voice she could hear, articulating the words clearly.

The words fell, and only the night wind whistled in his ears. The sound of her heart beating could be heard, and Nohara Nao raised her head in surprise and quickly turned around.

"Like. There is nothing to like a person. Anyway, it's your fault that you like me, you can't like me, you can like someone else. ”

"We have a very good-looking and very good personality in our medical class, you. You're thinking about it, and you're going to love it. ”

When there was only the sound of Nohara Nao babbling alone on the road, Naruto laughed silently.

He knew he had won.
