At noon.

Uchiha Itachi stopped the vehicle in the parking area of ​​the highway, looked at the fuel consumption, and nodded: "You shouldn't need to refuel."

However, on the premise that we can only reach Konoha in the afternoon, we should still have lunch.

Gas stations, convenience stores and restrooms can be said to be standard features in highway parking areas. Normally, convenience stores will also set up some tables and chairs inside and outside the store for passing drivers to use.

Uchiha Shisui pushed the door and got out of the car. Seeing that the people next to him had also opened the door and got out of the car, he gave up his plan to go around and act like a gentleman. He raised his hands and stretched out firmly - his car was a relatively spacious type.

Yes, but for a man like him, sitting in it for a long time still feels a bit restrained and suffocating.

"Sorry, I need to go to the restroom first." Uchiha said with a bit of embarrassment. After all, he had been in the car for a long time and he understood everything.

"Me too." Itachi Uchiha said considerately, "Brother Shisui, Sasuke, do you want to come together?"

"Of course." Uchiha Shisui smiled and nodded.

Uchiha Sasuke complained in his heart: Are you two girls in the same class who have such a good relationship that you have to go to the toilet together?

However, complaints are complaints, and you still have to go.

after a while.

After washing his hands, Uchiha Sasuke was about to go out, but Uchiha Shisui who was standing aside held his shoulder. The latter smiled and said: "Sasuke, please go out later."

"...What are you doing?" Uchiha Sasuke squinted at someone, "I have no interest in staying in the bathroom for a long time."

Uchiha Shisui: "..." He looked at the sky silently, thinking that this was really a brat who couldn't speak.

Uchiha Itachi, who was washing his hands, explained: "What Shisui-nii means is, don't let Oiko-san feel that we have been waiting for her for a long time. Women...generally spend more time in the bathroom than men. According to her personality,

It makes me feel quite sad to see all of us waiting for her."

Uchiha Sasuke: "..." Although he had to admit that it made sense, he still had to complain, "Is it interesting to think about so many things all day long?" Moreover, the two people had too much tacit understanding, sour, sour, sour...

…

Uchiha Shisui raised his head and looked at his glasses, and looked at his clan brother in this way, the meaning was obvious——

Hurry up and take this lemon-smelling kitten away from your home.

However, I heard that lemon scent goes better with the bathroom~

Uchiha Itachi: "..."

However, it was precisely because of the considerateness of the clan brothers that when Uchiha walked out of the bathroom in a hurry, he happened to see them walking out together, and he felt relieved: Great... It seems that he didn't waste too much time.

.

Immediately afterwards, everyone walked into the convenience store and walked into the bento area very consciously. Because it was noon, there were some customers besides them in the store, but fortunately there were not many.

"What do you eat?" Uchiha Shisui asked.

"Let's take this." Uchiha Sasuke picked up two tomato beef brisket rice balls.

"Then I want this." Uchiha Shisui picked up a box of teriyaki beef rice, turned his head and asked, "Itachi, what about you?" Then, he grabbed the clan brother who walked naturally towards the dessert area,

"Dah! At least, you should have a normal meal at noon."

"..." Uchiha Itachi raised his hand, grabbed the arm of Uchiha Obi who was "drifting towards the dessert area" with him, and reminded him, "Obi-san, it's dinner time."

Uchiha Obito: "..." Why do I feel that Itachi, you are being held back, so you are dragging me into the water? With the mood of "If I can't eat sweets, neither can anyone", you and I will "die together". It should be

...Isn't that right? After all, Itachi doesn't seem to be so narrow-minded?

...Although it is definitely a bit sinister.

Shisui is also a bit.

In this sense, only Sasuke is clearly a black cat, but more like a silly cow-cat with a white belly and wearing white gloves.

"...Okay." After Uchiha looked around, he picked up a simple seaweed fried chicken rice ball, the kind with sweet sauce.

"Only eat this little?" Sasuke Uchiha frowned slightly, "I remember that you are quite good at eating. You can eat more than me in one meal."

Uchiha Shisui: "..."

Uchiha Itachi: "..."

——As expected of you, you are really good at talking.

Uchiha Obi, who has long been accustomed to it, replied: "I will buy some oden when I pay the bill later."

"That's okay too."

In the end, Uchiha Itachi chose a sandwich filled with cheese, egg and beef - it would make him feel uncomfortable if he didn't eat something sweet. But because this was considered a dinner, no one could say anything.

"What do you want to drink?" Uchiha Shisui asked again.

"Tsk, there's no tomato juice here, let me drink this." Uchiha Sasuke picked up a bottle of "concentrated vegetable juice" (the ingredient list at the back clearly stated that it contained tomatoes), and he was obviously a high-spirited person in every sense of the word.

The young men who eat are actually among the most healthy in the clan.

"I'll drink this." Uchiha picked up a bottle of red bean milk and shook it with a smile.

"Then I'll give this a try." Uchiha Shisui naturally took a bottle and put it in the shopping basket, and asked his clan brother, "Itachi, would you like a bottle too?"

"Um."

Uchiha Sasuke: "???" Is he being explicitly rejected? However, the thought of having a meal with sweet red bean milk or something makes me sick, Dah! Absolutely Dah!

So he stuck to his taste and pride.

Not long after.

After paying the bill, the four people sat down in the dining area in the corner of the store, raised their hands together and said, "I'm starting."

Then each ate his own lunch.

"The taste is very average." Uchiha Sasuke took a bite and said honestly.

"It should be said that it is very standard." Uchiha Shisui said, "Sometimes I think this country is really scary. No matter which convenience store I go to, the taste of the food will not be too different. Although 'standardization' seems

It’s a good word, but to reach this point no matter how you say it..."

"Indeed," Uchiha Itachi agreed, "even if you eat dumplings outside, the fillings are basically cabbage and pork, and the taste will not be much different."

"That's right..." Uchiha Shisui nodded in agreement, "I chose the one that won't go wrong but is definitely not that delicious."

The two "househusbands" naturally exchanged their experiences on eating out.

"Actually, it's not just the Land of Fire," Ochiha Ochiha, who has been to many countries, added, "It's similar to other countries. When I first went to the Land of Thunder, I was really surprised to eat the bento from the convenience store. I thought

I thought, 'Could it be opened by people from our country?', and finally found out... This is probably the same taste all over the world. However, the local specialties are still very different from those of the Fire Country."

"The Country of Thunder is a place rich in beef." Uchiha Shisui said, "Nowadays, the beef restaurants that are slightly famous in the Country of Fire basically import their ingredients from there. Although our country has also introduced beef from the Country of Thunder.

Breed cattle, but compared to the environment of the Kingdom of Fire, the environment of the Kingdom of Thunder is more suitable for the growth of cattle."

"That's true." Uchiha Obito replied, "That's why the tribe's supermarket will fly cattle from the Land of Thunder to be slaughtered every now and then to meet the needs of the tribe. During the holidays, the demand will be doubled." In fact, this is the case.

It's a bit luxurious, because the price of beef from the Land of Thunder is really expensive. However, the Uchiha people are generally quite wealthy, so overall supply and demand are balanced.

"It's over," Uchiha Shisui sighed, "When I mentioned this, I suddenly couldn't eat. If I had known better, I would have made my own lunch in the morning."

"Be patient." Uchiha raised his hand and patted his shoulder, smiling and saying, "Otherwise, it seems that you have to stay in Konoha for one night? I'll treat you to beef tonight."

"This is good~ How to eat it? Grilled...ah, sorry, Itachi."

The reason why Uchiha Shisui said this is because Uchiha Itachi doesn't like eating barbecue very much, but because he has a really high tolerance, he can eat the whole thing without expression even if he occasionally eats with others.

As a result, when the two first met, it took Uchiha Shisui a while to realize this (because at that time he knew enough about his clan brother and could tell the clues from his expressionless expression while eating),

I asked my clan brother dumbfounded——

"Itachi, why don't you just tell me if you don't like it?"

Uchiha Itachi replied seriously: "It's too straightforward. I'm worried that you will be embarrassed, Brother Shisui."

"..." Do you think I'm not embarrassed that I only discovered this after I took you to eat several times?

After that, Uchiha Shisui repeated many times, "If you don't like it, just say it." Uchiha Itachi promised very well, but many times he would habitually choose to be patient. It's not intentional, it's just nature.

As a result.

Uchiha Shisui had no choice but to silently deepen his understanding of his clan brothers to avoid a similar situation happening again. Whenever he thought of Itachi silently enduring a forced smile when he was with him, he felt really uncomfortable. Because of a period of

If a friendship is to be sustained, both parties should remain relatively comfortable.

He seriously wanted to be lifelong friends with Itachi.

"It doesn't matter to me." Uchiha Itachi replied in his own style, "If you want to eat barbecue, let's go together." Seeing the people he cares about eating happily makes him happy, and personal preferences really don't matter.

"Brother, how many times have I told you not to be too easy-going in these places." Uchiha Sasuke said unbearably, "Besides, this is not the only way to eat beef."

"Yes, it's okay to eat it raw." Uchiha Shisui said deliberately.

"...I refuse." Uchiha Sasuke decisively refused, "I hate this way of eating."

"Itachi, hurry up and learn from Sasuke."

"..."

"I know a beef restaurant that makes good food, let's go eat it tonight." Uchiha Obi gave a thumbs up, "Although the cooking method is a bit extravagant and a bit wasteful, the taste is quite good~ As for what it is, well,
