Chapter 26: Dawn

"Lord Qinghe, how is Xiao Nan?"

Hanzo Mansion, under the dim light, an old-faced ninja withdrew his hand from Xiao Nan's forehead and shook his head: "The injury is too serious, and there are toxins on the knife." You didn't go to help the border village get rid of the bandits, how could you be so badly injured? ”

MiTAC exit asked.

"It's unbearable. They took advantage of the war between Sand Ninja and Yun Ninja in the country, fished in troubled waters, looted and burned many villages, we thought at first they were ordinary thieves, and suffered a big loss. ”

A member of Akatsuki spoke.

"It's all me, if it weren't for protecting me, Xiao Nan wouldn't have been hurt."

Yahiko lowered her head, her tone full of self-reproach.

"It's not your fault, Yahiko, no one thought they would disguise themselves as women and children."

Nagato stepped forward and patted Yahiko on the shoulder, but he didn't notice that his hand was shaking.

Long red hair obscured his expression, and in the shadows, his pupils twitched uneasily.

Looking at Xiao Nan, who was unconscious, he seemed to be back to that rainy night, holding a kunai Konoha ninja in his hand, and protecting his parents with his life.

Why?

Will those who cherish it depart from me?

My life is already so miserable, isn't it enough?

Teeth bit his lower lip hard, and an urge to return everything to silence churned within him.

"Perhaps... Maybe there's a way over there. ”

The medical ninja named Kiyokawa stroked his slender white beard with some scruples.

Seeing that everyone's eyes converged on him, Qinghe spoke: "I heard from the people who came back from Sand Hidden Village that Hoshino Maki is an excellent medical ninja, and many incurable diseases that others can't treat well are at his fingertips, and Sand Ninja even calls him 'the next Chiyo-sama' within him. But... I don't know if he will save Yushinobi. ”

Yahiko's eyes lit up, and hope rose in Nagato's desperate heart.

If a medical ninja of Chiyo's level made a move, Xiaonan would definitely turn the corner, right?

If he is not willing to make a move, then kneel in front of him until he agrees!

Yahiko turned around and bowed deeply to Hanzo, who had been sitting there.

Hanzo nodded: "Qinghe will stabilize Xiao Nan's injury first, and I will tell Hoshino Mu early tomorrow morning." ”

He believes that the other party will still give this face.

"Hanzo-sama, Xiao Nan's injury can't be delayed!"

When Yahiko heard that it was going to be delayed until tomorrow, he didn't care about etiquette, so he straightened up and shouted anxiously.

Hanzo frowned imperceptibly, and said in a light tone: "Medical ninjutsu requires a lot of chakra, and today's negotiations must have made him very tired, and you will only be rejected if you go to him now." ”

After speaking, he looked at Qinghe: "Xiao Nan's injury will last until tomorrow morning, right?" ”

"Should... It should be ok. ”

As an old ninja in Rain Hidden Village, he knew what answers Hanzo wanted to hear.

"Qinghe said so, let's go again tomorrow."

Hanzo actually didn't want Hoshino to make a move. If a human life dies, he dies, and for the life of a member of a small organization to give away his favor, where is the majesty of the demigods in the ninja world?

If it weren't for the fact that Yahiko and the others had helped him solve a lot of trouble, he wouldn't even be interested in seeing each other, and it was a great gift to be willing to help them speak.

In Yuyin Village, Hanzo's words are the supreme instructions that cannot be refuted.

It's rare to have two more sentences like today.

But Yahiko was not reconciled, and was quiet enough to hear the sound of a needle dropping, and his fists clenched hard: "I'm sorry sir, I still want to try." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Hanzo to speak, he picked up Xiao Nan and rushed out of the room, followed by the other members of Xiao.

In the warm spring-like building, there seemed to be a cold wind pouring in from the open door, and Hanzo tightened his robes to stop the guards who wanted to stop them, closing his eyes and not speaking.

————

"Hoshino-sama! Is Hoshino-sama here?! ”

There was a knock on the door, and after a while, a voice came from behind the door: "Who?" ”

"Is it Hoshino-sama?"

"Your Excellency has already fallen asleep, so let's come back tomorrow if you have something."

"I am Akatsuki's leader Yahiko, my companion is in danger, I implore you to come to your rescue!"

After speaking, there was the sound of heavy objects falling into the water outside the door, and the sound was one after another, Yi looked out from the crack in the door curiously, an orange-haired boy kneeling in the water, throwing his body to the ground, his forehead pressed on the water, and the same were true for several people wearing the same clothes as him.

"Yi, open the door."

Yi was so frightened that he shuddered, turned around, and saw Hoshino Mu standing behind him with an umbrella at some point.

Crunch –

Thunder flashed around the door, and Yahiko felt a shadow shine above him, and through the distorted reflection of the water, he could vaguely see that it was a young man.

An oilcloth umbrella hung overhead, and the man whispered, "Your name is Yahiko?" ”

"It's me, I beg you to save my companion."

Yahiko didn't look up, still respectfully maintaining a kneeling posture.

"But if you don't send her over, how can I save her?"

Yahiko raised his head in surprise and looked at the young man squatting in front of him with a smile on his face.

He hadn't met Hoshino Makii, but from the expressions of Lord Kiyokawa and Lord Hanzo, he had the impression that he was a person with a rebellious and withdrawn personality, and that he might be ridiculed and embarrassed by the other party when he came this time, and even punched and kicked.

He was ready to be humiliated, and he only begged the other party to save Xiao Nan. I didn't expect things to go so smoothly, so smooth that he stupidly slapped himself to see if he was in a dream.

Hoshino Mu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile: "Yi, go get a stretcher and carry her in." ”

Hoshino Maki had already seen Xiao Nan and the two ninjas of the Akatsuki organization under the eaves not far away, and motioned for Yi to help.

"Let's wipe it."

Hoshino Mu took out a handkerchief and handed it to the other party, Yahiko touched his dirty forehead, and shook his head a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, handkerchiefs are meant to be wiped."

As he spoke, he took out another one and gave it to Nagato behind Yahiko: "You can wipe it too." ”

"Thank you."

Nagato saw Yahiko take the handkerchief and took it himself.

Nagato~

Hoshino Mu glanced at him calmly, who would have thought that more than ten years later, this man would bring the real nuclear peace to Konoha Village?

To be honest, he really felt the urge to snatch the eye of reincarnation now, but reason still prevailed.

He didn't believe that Madara really ignored the old man after handing over the reincarnation eye to Nagato, and honestly waited for the day of extubation.

Maybe Bai Jue was staring at it nearby at this time.

At this time, Xiao Nan was sallow and thin like a bone frame because of long-term malnutrition, and he did not have the demeanor of the iceberg royal sister in the future.

In fact, Nagato and Yahiko are also very thin, after all, they are children in their early 10s, and they became orphans when they were growing up.

"Yi, go make them a pot of ginger tea, and get some snacks and warm clothes."

Hoshino Mu put his hand on Xiao Nan's wrist and commanded Yi.

"My lord, don't be so troublesome, we've all eaten and it's not cold."

Yahiko said, but he could hear Nagato's stomach rumbling beside him.

Because Hoshino Mu was checking the pulse, everyone didn't dare to breathe, and the protest in the stomach was particularly loud at this time.

Nagato lowered his head and covered his ashamed face with his long bright red hair.

He felt that he was embarrassed to Yahiko and Xiao.

"Sit down, I'm hungry too, come with me for some supper."

The people of Akatsuki clutched their wet corners of their clothes, and the floor burned their feet as if they were on fire.

Some of them come from all over the world, some are old and some are young, but they have never seen a big man talk to themselves so kindly, and it is really difficult to adapt.

Hoshino Mu patted his head and smiled apologetically: "Look at my brain, Kosuke, go and lead them to take a shower and change clothes." ”

The door was opened, and Kosuke stood outside the door, looking at the members of Akatsuki with a blank face, and then turned sideways: "Please"

Seeing that Yahiko and the others were still standing there, Hoshino Maki raised his face: "If you don't go to anyone again, I won't save it." ”

When the group heard this, they trotted to keep up with Kosuke.

When the door closed, Hoshino Mu put away his smile and his face sank like water, closing his eyes, and the chakra spread around, forming a three-dimensional model of the entire mansion in his mind.

The kitchen, the fence, the pond, any place where the old yin likes to ambush him.

"Wait!"

In my mind, a pitcher plant rises silently in the bushes of the garden.

Hoshino Maki retracted the chakra the moment he saw the pitcher plant, he didn't know if the other party could detect his peeping, but he didn't want to take risks, especially in the face of Jue.

One is by no means dangerous, the old man in the back is the trouble.

Hoshino Maki took a deep breath, as if nothing had happened, and continued to treat Konan.
