The girl looked at the clearly visible smile on the face and eyes of the person in front of her, and couldn't help but reveal a small smile, secretly apologizing to a certain little Shiba Inu——

I'm sorry, Shige, for actually doubting whether your idea is reliable. Now it seems that if you want to rank the people who know Tobirama-sama best, you must fight for the best!

First?

That must still be Hashirama-sama, huh huh.

"Hmm..." Qianju Tobirama picked up a card and read out the words on it, "Call your name." He looked down at the girl's eyes and asked with some surprise, "Why did you think of writing this?"

Could it be because of what happened before? Or...

"This is Shigeru's suggestion." The girl answered honestly, "Tobirama-sama might want this very much." Although she was curious about why, but considering that the person in front of her did make a similar request when she was playing games before, so

So I wrote it with the intention of giving it a try. However, the possibility of Tobirama-sama using it should be very small, right?

Anyway... it seems a bit rude for her to call Lord Tobirama by his first name?

Qianju Tobirama: "..." He thought with a slightly complicated mood. He was careless. He only tried to hide it in front of his elder brother and other people who might have seen the clues, but he accidentally capsized the boat with his little nephew. This child's

Intuition... is really not weaker than his father's. It seems that he underestimated Fan in the past.

Fortunately, although this guy Fan looks careless, he is actually a careful kid who doesn't talk too much, and he won't do anything like "seizing the opportunity to threaten his elders". Otherwise, he would have to consider arresting his nephew.

It was thrown into the laboratory and the memory was sealed.

That's right, Senju Tobirama never resorts to threats.

He is such a tough man.

Thinking this way, Senju Tobirama asked in a good mood: "When will these cards become effective? Is there an expiration date?"

"It will take effect from the moment Tobirama-sama receives it ~ and it will be valid forever ~" the girl replied with a bright smile on her face.

"In that case..." Senju Tobirama raised the card in his hand and handed it to the girl in front of him. He said in a low voice with a smile in his eyes, "Xing, call my name."

One after another until he was satisfied.

"...Huh?" The girl took the card with a confused look on her face, thinking to herself, Shige is really smart... But since she made a promise, she had to keep it, so she grabbed the card with both hands and took a deep breath.

Finally, he raised his head and shouted with a slight stutter, "Tobi, Tobirama..." It was so dangerous, I almost took "sama" out again...

Senju Tobirama nodded calmly: "Continue."

"……What?"

"There's no requirement for the number of times written on it," Qianju Tobijian said seriously, "So, don't you just shout until I'm satisfied?"

"..." The girl scratched her head and thought, this seems to be the truth. So she had to open her mouth and shouted again, "Tobi, Tobirama..." Because of the experience just now, it was indeed much smoother this time.

"Yes." Senju Tobirama nodded calmly again, "Continue."

"...Tobirama."

"continue."

"Tobirama."

"continue."

"Tobirama!"

…

Before I knew it, I actually shouted a lot.

The silver-haired man's expression remained calm, as if this was just a trivial matter, or just teasing the cute junior. Unknowingly, the girl's speech became more and more natural.

"Well, that's it." Senju Tobirama thought with some regret, he couldn't continue, otherwise, clues would be discovered - he had not yet made up his mind about whether to cross the "huge age" between them.

"Gap" thing.

But that doesn't stop him from doing other things at all.

Therefore, it can be seen that when an old man reaches this age, he is really just doing it subconsciously.

"...Oh." The girl nodded and asked again, "Master Tobirama, has your mood improved?"

"Thanks to you," Qianju Tobijian replied sincerely, "it's much better."

"That's the best!" The girl suddenly smiled. After all, the most basic goal was achieved~ She then said, "Then I'll go back first, Tobirama-sama."

"...are you going back now?"

"Yes." She nodded and replied seriously, "I promised Lord Hashirama that I would leave early and come back early."

"...That's it." Qianju Feijian heard this and could only nod his head, "Then, be careful on the road."

"Well~ Goodbye, Tobirama-sama!"

Following these words, the girl jumped down from the window again.

Senju Tobirama stood by the window, silently watching her figure until it completely disappeared from sight, then slowly closed the window, leaving only a thin crack for ventilation. Then, he turned around and returned to the table,

Sit down and by the way...

He raised his left hand and covered his face.

The other hand slowly touched his heart.

The calmness and composure he had just now had completely disappeared. Now he only has one thought in his mind -

So cute, so cute.

...I really want it.

The other side.

But the girl didn't use the Flying Thunder God to go back.

This was mainly because she remembered something. Last night, Hashirama-sama casually mentioned, "Now is the season for roasted sweet potatoes." He also said that although you can make this at home, you always feel that making it at home is different from buying it outside.

There is a difference in taste.

In fact, it’s normal if you think about it carefully.

The roasted sweet potatoes sold outside are made by heating clean stones with charcoal, and then the sweet potatoes are buried in the hot stones and roasted.

This method is also called "stone roasting".

Although it can be made at home, the overall consumption is too little after all. As for the roasted sweet potatoes outside, because the boss keeps selling them for many days, the stones are soaked with the aroma and honey of the roasted sweet potatoes. In this case

, the sweet potatoes baked under these stones will be even sweeter.

Now, it was the best season to sell roasted sweet potatoes, so she decided to buy some for Hashirama-sama, Noriko, Kyuubi and Slug to take back. The others had nothing to do, it was the morning now,

None of them are at home.

Not long after.

She found a roasted sweet potato stall on the street. The owner was standing under a big umbrella to block the wind and snow, stretching his hand next to the iron oven to keep warm.

"Boss, are any of the sweet potatoes ripe?" the girl stood still and asked with a smile.

"Yes." The young man smiled and nodded, "Master Xing, how many do you want?"

The girl is not surprised that the person in front of her recognizes her. In fact... she seems to be quite famous in the village now. Probably because she often hangs out with Lord Hashirama and Lord Tobirama. Everyone knows that she is "

Thousand-Hand Star".

"Hmm, five of them, maybe a little sweeter."

"Don't worry, everything you give to Mr. Xing must be sweet."

"...Even if it's for other guests, it still has to be sweet." The girl corrected - only give her privileges or something, Dah!

"Yes, that's right." The boss smiled, opened the iron stove and took out a few sweet potatoes that had roasted honey juice. After weighing them, he put them in paper bags.

After the girl paid the money, she hugged the paper bag and prepared to leave.

Just at this moment, a strong wind blew.

The wind and snow seemed to suddenly become stronger.

She quickly stuffed the paper bag into her wide sleeves, and then very decisively used the Flying Thunder God to go home.

After a while...

"Master Hashirama, I'm back!!!" the girl shouted excitedly, rushing into the house.

"Hoshi-chan, welcome back." The man who was throwing dice by himself turned his head and responded with a smile. Then, the tip of his nose suddenly twitched, "Hmm? What's the smell?"

"Good question!" The girl walked to him and knelt down with a smile. Then, she took out a big paper bag containing sweet potatoes from her sleeve, "Qiang Qiang! Look! Lord Hashirama, what did I bring you~"

"It's roasted sweet potatoes." Senju Hashirama suddenly showed a bright smile. In fact, he just mentioned it casually yesterday, but even such simple and casual words were well remembered by the little girl in front of him.

In my heart.

How can something like this not make people happy?

"Correct answer~" the girl replied cheerfully, while opening the paper bag, "It was just taken out of the oven, it's still very hot...ah!" She called out slightly and looked at it with a little surprise.

The man who grabbed his hand said, "Hashirama-sama?"

Senju Hashirama didn't answer him, he just raised his hand and gently and carefully pushed up her sleeves. Looking at the obvious red mark on the small white arm, he frowned slightly and asked, "Why?
