Chapter 29 Taking care of children
"It's finally done." I glanced at the rich dinner on the dinner table. Then I started to eat slowly. After eating, Shadow clone and I cleaned up, sat on the bed, and made seals with both hands and said: "Shadow clone is lifted." At this time, all the Shadow clones in my house disappeared, and I said lightly: "Sure enough, after the Shadow clones are lifted, the fatigue is borne by the body." As I said that, I fainted...
"Huh? Where is Naruto? Haven't you arrived yet?" Kakashi asked at Sasuke and Sakura in front of him, and said in his heart: "It should be that the use of the Multiple Shadow Cluster Technique yesterday has accumulated too much fatigue!"
Sasuke didn't say anything, while Sakura shook her head and said, "I don't know, um, look at Teacher Kakashi. Naruto is here." As she said that, Sakura stretched out her hand and pointed behind Kakashi. Kakashi turned her head and saw that I was rushing towards him from a distance. But now she is still a little distance away from him.
I came to Kakashi and said, "Sorry, I'm late for Teacher Kakashi."
Kakashi shook his head and said, "Forget it, the time for gathering has just passed." Then Kakashi paused for a moment, and then said, "Okay, everyone has arrived, so let's continue the task." Kakashi took out the scroll and said, "There are three D-level tasks on it. Our next task is... Recently, several employees in the orphanage have left their jobs, and the new employees have not yet been in place, so we are entrusted to take care of these little kids for a day. Oh, by the way, because there will be employees in a few days tomorrow, so since we will be in the next task, we must complete this task before the new employees are in place. Otherwise, it will be considered a failure."
"Take care for the child?" Sakura was slightly stunned, and then the scene of her holding the child appeared in her mind, but Sasuke also appeared in her mind at the same time. Then Sakura's face slowly turned red. Sasuke didn't say anything, but a black line appeared on her forehead. I frowned tightly.
Kakashi said: "Ah, that's right, it's just taking care of the children. The reward for this task is 5,000 ounces, but the only benefit is that it only takes one day no matter what. And as long as the children don't have anything to do, the task can be considered completed. So overall it's pretty good. OK, let's go!" After Kakashi said that, his body slightly lateral and ran in one direction. Sakura and Sasuke Kakashi followed, and only I was still in place.
I glanced at them, then made seals with both hands and said, "The Shadow Cloning Technique." With a 'bang', another me appeared beside me. I smiled calmly, then reached out to take out a food box from my ninja bag and handed it to him, "Then I'll hand this thing over to you."
"Don't worry. Do you not even believe yourself?" I said softly. I smiled lightly, then jumped in the direction of Kakashi and the others. Kakashi moved his head slightly and placed the light of his eyes on the shadow clone I left. But he didn't say anything, but continued to walk forward.
The three of us followed Kakashi to a very wide manor. I looked at the manor and said, "No wonder I get a reward of 5,000 taels a day when I take care of children. But if I use this money to hire a few temporary workers, I should get it? Why do I need to post it as a task?"
Kakashi smiled calmly and said, "Who knows? You'll know if you go in and take a look?" As we said that, a few of us walked in. We found that there were really few employees here, and there seemed to be a bit too many orphans, and almost everyone had to take care of more than five orphans.
Soon we arrived at the dean's office. The dean was a middle-aged woman. She looked at us excitedly and said, "You are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a lot of time."
We were slightly stunned, and the dean looked at us and said, "In fact, this is the case. You also know that these children need people to take care of every day, and we don't have much reward here, but the average level is not available. There is no holiday yet, and taking care of children is very troublesome. If it is a baby, it's better. Just coax them to fall asleep. But a three or four-year-old child is a little troublesome and needs to concentrate a lot of energy. All of them, some employees are starting to feel a little dissatisfied. Some have quit their jobs, but some have stayed, but I promised to give them a day of vacation. So, please give them everything today."
I smiled bitterly and said, "Sorry, Dean, I have a question."
The dean lowered his head and smiled, "What's the problem? Little Ninja."
I smiled softly: "It's related to this task. I want to know how many children we have to take care of today, how many babies we have, and how many three or four years old? When will we take care of?"
The dean smiled softly and said, "Haha, there are not too many, there are only one hundred children in total, and there are fifty babies. As for when you need to take care of it? In fact, it doesn't have to be too long. Just take care of it until five o'clock in the evening. At that time, my employees should have come back. Just leave it to them at that time."
I smiled bitterly and then took a few steps back. Sakura's mind was surrounded by countless babies. Sasuke's cool expression could not be pretended. Then the dean said, "So can you please start immediately?" As he said, the dean pointed outside, and saw that the employees who were originally caring for the children were now walking out. The dean said, "I told them that as soon as you arrive, they can leave and come back on time at five o'clock. And I'm leaving too. Today I have also given myself a day off, so I'll give you everything."
Kakashi looked at it and nodded and said, "Okay, then let's leave it to us." Then the dean left, Kakashi looked at us and said, "Okay, now there are only four of us left here, oh, by the way, there are still a hundred children who need care. That's it, I'll give you a day off tomorrow." Then Kakashi paused and said, "Oh, by the way, as for how to proceed this task, you can decide for yourself. Disband now." After that, Kakashi disappeared first.
I sighed slightly, looked at Sasuke and Sakura and said, "Now everyone has disappeared. We can only rely on ourselves." The three of us walked out and saw that there were two rooms beside us. The one on the left was quieter, with dozens of cribs, and most of them were lying on them. If you count them, the baby was fifty, and the crib was more than ten more than the total number of babies. However, most of the babies are asleep now, so it is quieter. However, the other room is quite noisy, and dozens of children aged three or four were running around on the ground. They were talking vaguely. Fortunately, the sound insulation was good, and the sound could not be transmitted outside.
I touched my forehead and said, "Is there any way you can? We have to take care of them until five o'clock, and there are still eight hours left."
Sasuke and Sakura did not speak immediately, but lowered their heads and pondered. Suddenly, Sakura raised her head and said, "I have a way." Sasuke and I were stunned. Sakura smiled softly and said, "Naruto, don't you know the technique of multi-shadow clones? Isn't it enough to just divide a hundred clones?" Then Sakura's mind had a scene of dating between her and Sasuke.
I was slightly stunned, and then smiled bitterly and said, "Sakura, you think too simple. Yes, there is no problem with creating a hundred shadow clones? But first of all, I don't know how to take care of children. Of course, the three of us are the same, but I told you yesterday that the shadow clone technique is created by the entity, so the fatigue of the shadow clone will accumulate on the body when the shadow clone is removed. You won't want me to faint here!"
Sakura smiled embarrassedly and said, "I'm sorry, Naruto. I forgot for a moment. By the way, how did you do after you lifted the ninjutsu yesterday?"
I shrugged and said, "What else can I do? I fainted. So I woke up a little late in the morning."
"That's it!" Sakura was silent and said, "Then let's think of other ways! We can't always rely on you!"
I smiled softly and said, "I'll take care of these three or four-year-old children, and you can take care of those babies. Our task is actually very simple, just don't let them cry. Because these children are imitative, only if one of them cries, the others will cry as well. As for me, if it doesn't work, I will use the Shadow Clan technique."
Sakura and Sasuke nodded, and then walked into another room together. At this time, there were some memories in my mind. When I saw that it was the shadow clone that was holding the food box in the morning. I smiled calmly. Walking into this room and looking at dozens of three or four-year-old children, I smiled helplessly. I thought for a while, and finally made a gentle seal with my hands and said, "Transformation technique." With a bang, I turned into a stone, then removed it, and then used it again and then became something else. The three of us were curious about everything, changing me constantly, and all the children's eyes attracted, and I kept changing until the task was completed. In the meantime, we had no time to have lunch at all, because there were too many children, and once we left, these children would cry. From then on, the three of us made up our minds and never accepted similar tasks again.
