Chapter 217: Finding Yourself
A few days later, in the afternoon, the moon and the evening had already cleaned up the flower shop.
Looking at the warm and fragrant little shop in her imagination, she smiled, and decided to wait until tomorrow to find the third generation Hokage to explain everything, she was tired, she just wanted to live simply.
"Hurricane, did you come to me for something?"
Today, the old classmates who used to have a good relationship came to look for her, and Mao Yue Xiyan also showed a sweet smile, as if she had forgotten the past during this time and dispelled all the pressure in her heart.
The two sat at the table leaning against the window, the fragrant tea was wanton, and the haggard face of the moonlight was slowly raised, looking at the most perfect and simple girl in his mind, there was only irony at this moment.
"Xiyan, why, why did you become like this, some time ago you said that you wanted to find an ordinary person, I thought I had a chance, in order not to miss it, I mustered up the courage, as a result!"
The words of the moonlight blast instantly made Mao Yuexi stunned, but in an instant, she thought of something, and the smile on her face suddenly stiffened.
"Tempest, you investigate me!"
Faced with Mao Yuexi's ugly face, Moonlight Blaster smiled bitterly and nodded and admitted directly, "You know, we are ninjas, and if we want to start a family, we will instinctively investigate the other party's intelligence first. β
originally thought that she could bury it after that passage, but she didn't expect that all this was his own wishful thinking.
Utsuki Xiyan, who came out of her own world, showed a smile, "Sure enough, all this is too naΓ―ve for me to think, it is impossible to live so simple as a ninja, especially a female ninja." β
"The first thing ninjas want to start a family is to investigate each other, I thought I could bury the past, but I didn't expect me to be too naΓ―ve."
After nakedly revealing her complicated past, Mao Yue Xiyan thought that she would escape and dare not face it, but when it came to this moment, she showed a relaxed smile instead.
"Chakra metal weapons are still at the level of famous knives, and any piece of jewelry you have is worth hundreds of thousands, and this shop in the most prosperous street, Xiyan! If you really want to forget the past, how do you explain this? β
At this time, Moonlight Blaster made up his mind to come to Mao Yue Xiyan, in fact, there was still a trace of fantasy, as long as Xiyan was willing to give up everything, he was also willing to let go of these to pursue the goddess in his mind.
The expression of the moonlight wind was not hidden, but Mao Yue Xiyan slowly leaned back on the chair, and her eyes gradually became confused.
"You're right, if I really want to bury everything before, I shouldn't want these things, let alone enjoy them calmly."
"Instead, I was talking about burying the past, and on the other hand, I was enjoying it calmly." When she said this, Mao Yue Xiyan showed a self-deprecating smile on her face.
"Maybe I'm still facing my true self, as a classmate, are you willing to listen to me?"
Moonlight Wind still had a trace of fantasy in silence, and couldn't help nodding and said, "If you want to say, I'll listen." β
"The time should be three years ago, when the two of us joined the Seventh Police Division at the same time, do you remember when I owed a huge amount of debt?"
Moonlight Wind nodded silently, he naturally knew about this incident three years ago, what Xiyan said at the beginning had been resolved, and he didn't think much about it at that time.
"Do you know the million-dollar debt pressure? I searched for all the relatives, neighbors, teachers, teammates, and classmates I thought were good! β
When she said this, Mao Yue Xiyan showed a look of memory, and the corners of her mouth showed a sarcastic smile, she concealed that she was on a mission from the Secret Department, but this is not important, the important thing is that she has personally experienced what it means to be warm and cold.
At first, she had a firm idea of carrying out the mission in secret, but then her former friends, relatives, and neighbors avoided disgusted eyes, and she understood that this was the real face.
Then there was even a disgusting person who took advantage of the fire to rob, and her teacher once showed greedy eyes, and even wanted to use a few thousand taels to let her sleep with, anyway, she wouldn't be happy if the huge amount of money was not paid.
There was also schadenfreude, at that time she saw through human nature, and she was a little glad that she sneered at this group of people to show their true faces.
"Later, I was under pressure at that time, anyway, so many people wanted to beat my idea, since I was so valuable, why didn't I sell myself for a high price? I found someone who I didn't reject and could get more, so I found the most prestigious police department captain at the time. β
Concealed everything about the Shadow Mission, because this is a ninja regulation, she needs to keep it a secret for the rest of her life.
With the narration of Mao Yue Xiyan, the moonlight wind showed a look of remorse, at the beginning! When Xiyan was the most difficult, he didn't think about it so much, he was so stupid.
"He is very good, gentle, considerate, and strong, but I am not worthy of him, from the beginning I also came to the door, and then in three years, although I can't see anyone, but I have what I should have, the warmth between boyfriend and girlfriend, and all kinds of holiday gifts."
"Precious jewelry that only wealthy nobles can wear, blades that ordinary ninjas can't have, and even high-level ninjutsu, I accept them calmly, thinking that these are all things I deserve for myself."
When she said this, Mao Yue Xiyan shook her head and smiled bitterly at herself, "I think I got all this in exchange for myself, but now I think about it, it's so ridiculous, there has never been a shortage of people like me around him, and I am not indispensable for talent and beauty." β
"But he never said anything, as if he felt guilty about this unsightly feeling, he was making up for it, the advanced ninjutsu and blades wanted me to live well, and the precious jewelry might be his guilt, but I myself took it for granted, and now I understand."
"He is a great person, for his own ideals, for fear of dragging down the people around him, he has his own feelings, but he is afraid of implicating everyone, so he has been silently paying."
Moonlight and Wind listened silently, as if she was telling someone else's story, talking and laughing about the past three years, not so complaining.
"It was my self-righteous belief that I had been pressured by all kinds of criticism and chose to quit, and it was then that I realized that I had never thought about myself and never thought about others."
"You say, if I gave up this precious famous sword, these jewelry, and even all the ninjutsu that the other party taught me, I gave up everything! Can I start over when I was buried? β
Mao Yue Xiyan asked curiously, as if she was asking about something that was very serious and she wanted to know.
After hearing this, Moonlight Blaster shook his head silently, "It is impossible for people to give up the past, they can only temporarily suppress the dust in their hearts." β
"Yes, it's like I'm used to being in a position high up now."
At this time, Utsuki Xiyan's face gradually glowed with the heroic appearance of the ninja school, and he slowly raised his head like a proud swan.
"I'm a seventeen-year-old special ninja, mastering the advanced ninjutsu that countless people envy and envy, and I am at a height that many civilian ninjas can't reach in their lifetime, and I enjoy the eyes of the group of people who used to dislike and avoid now regretting relatives, neighbors, and friends."
"And all this I bought for three years, and he never minded!" When she said this, she directly magnified the selfishness in her heart, but she was frank and did not hide it.
"Then even if I give up all this, these past will still not be forgotten, just like you said Tempest."
With a self-deprecating smile on her face, Mao Yue Xiyan chuckled and shook her head: "I think I am pursuing a dull life, but what about others?" Will they forget my past? And the people around! They won't! β
"From the moment I became a ninja, it represents extraordinary, even if I go to the orphanage, the same orphanage will investigate my intelligence character, and even ordinary colleagues will investigate out of ninja habits."
"Then you say, why should I give up on this? What I have is the safe haven he has given me, and these are the last things I have when I lose everything. β
At this time, Mao Yue Xiyan showed a sincere smile, and now she seems to have just seen through herself.
She didn't want to give up everything she had gotten in the past three years, maybe it was vanity, or maybe it was selfishness, but this was human nature.
Anyway, even if she gives up everything, others will not let go of her past, so what reason does she have to give up her own things?
"I see, maybe from that moment three years ago, we are people of two worlds."
This time Moonlight Blast showed a wry smile, he knew that the two of them were not in the same world three years ago.
A trace of illusion in his heart completely disappeared, he could accept it, then his family? What about your friends? reminded all the time, in fact, he was just deceiving himself.
And Mao Yue Xiyan also found her true self.
Moonlight Blast is gone, this time very simply, the two sides are not in the same world, not to mention that neither of them will give up everything they have.
For example, it is impossible for Moonlight Blast to give up everything that is closely related to his family and companions. And it is impossible for Mao Yue Xiyan to give up his strength and everything.
When the flower shop returned to tranquility again, at this moment, Mao Yue Xiyan was alone in the sun, quietly looking at the environment of the store.
"It turned out that this was a hut I wanted to escape, and it was not a place to forget everything and start over again."
The sound echoed through the room, and at that moment a young figure timidly opened the door and walked in.
"Sister Xiyan, I'm here to help you clean up the flower shop today."
The girl with long blond hair suddenly smiled when she saw the moon and the sunset.
"It turned out to be Ino, you came just in time, my sister just happened to prepare afternoon tea, we can rest today."
Yamanaka Ino, this shop was originally Ino's mother's flower shop, and then after her parents left, this shop was closed, and then sold by the Yamanaka family, Ino always hoped that the new owner of this shop would continue to open the flower shop.
In this way, she can find the taste of her mother here.
Ino sat on the stool very obediently, one big and one small, smiling and drinking tea like two sisters.
"Ino, I'm sorry about your parents."
Seeing that he lost his parents at a young age, and the daughter of the middle patriarch fell to this point, although the treatment is better than ordinary, but compared with the previous one, the new patriarch will definitely not be like before, after all, the new patriarch represents new interests.
Although young, this child in the ninja world is precocious, and Ino smiles like a little adult.
"Sister Xiyan, my mother is also protecting Ino by doing this, so Ino has to smile every day, so that my mother and father will not be disappointed."
The intrigue of the big family, Ino at a young age understands a truth, that is, after his father leaves, relying on his mother is the most dangerous.
On the contrary, the mother's death was to protect her daughter, and the husband and wife gave up everything, leaving behind a young daughter, and the new successor would not do anything to Ino in order to avoid others gossiping.
After all, a child without parents, they don't need to be targeted, they just need not to teach some advanced ninjutsu, and naturally Ino will be wiped out by the public.
On the other hand, if her mother is here, as Ino grows up, she will learn advanced ninjutsu, will she regain the position of patriarch at that time? That's the potential threat.
And with the mother here, does the patriarch's resources have to leave some for this orphan and widow?
Although Ino has lost everything, he has also lost his threat.
"Ino, are you okay in the family?"
Facing Sister Xiyan's question, Ino showed a sweet and simple smile, "It's good, anyway, no one cares about it now." β
said plainly that no one cared about Ling Yuexi's face trembled, and she naturally understood this truth. The daughter of the former mountain patriarch, now the ordinary girl of the mountain clan who no one cares about and has long forgotten.
"So Ino do you have any dreams?"
I don't know if I want to make up for it or want to see the hatred in Ino 's heart, but under the casual and relaxed questioning of Mao Yue Xiyan, he secretly released a simple ninjutsu method that makes people relax their vigilance and hypnosis.
The Yamanaka clan allowed Ino to come here, and there was no lack of possibility of using her means to completely wipe out this almost threatening Ino.
Unconsciously, Ino's eyes were a little confused, and a trace of hatred slowly appeared in his eyes, "I want to become the strongest female ninja, and then ask the patriarch of the three clans of Pig, Deer and Butterfly!" Why did the so-called three clans advance and retreat together, and abandoned their father. β
"And the three generations of Hokage who are talking about protecting everyone, why are they acquiescing to all this."
Young Ino's rapid growth after the loss of her parents has made her understand something, who is the culprit who killed her parents.
In the flower shop, Yamanaka Ino leans on a soft chair like a kitten and falls into a dream, as if she has her home and her parents in her dreams.
But Mao Yue Xiyan sighed faintly, "Poor little girl, everything about your parents is caused by current politics." β
"Don't dare to take your own responsibilities and pass the buck to your subordinates, and the people below push your parents out of the interest, this may be politics, but it shouldn't be so ruthless."
The regime of the three generations of Hokage, and now the moon and the sunset are truly experiencing the degree of decay, just like the age of the three generations, it is already the last sunset.
And he is the rising sun, and she hopes that this sun will never set!
Hey, I've had a headache with my recent editing homework, and I can't finish it.
