"Hokage-sama, what happened?"

"Calamus! Where is the Calamus man?"

"Before I came in, she seemed to have jumped out of the window." Qianju Tobijian turned around, tried hard to clear up his face, and lied calmly, "Maybe he suddenly remembered something urgent or left something behind.

Don't worry, I'll follow you and have a look."

"...Okay." Wang Yueyu had doubts in his heart, but he could only nod.

Mochizuki Wakana unconsciously clasped her hands on her chest and murmured: "Really...is there no problem?"

Senju Tobirama answered affirmatively: "Anxin, this is Konoha, and I will never let Hotaru get into trouble in the village I protect." Otherwise, what's the point of being a Hokage? Over and over again.

The earth cannot protect the most important people...

"Master Tobirama..."

"You wait patiently at home, don't be anxious." Senju Tobirama patiently comforted him, "Especially you, Mrs. Wakana, if you hurt the fetus in your belly, Hotaru will regret it for the rest of his life. But I believe

,As a former ninja, you are definitely not such a weak woman, right? So, please be sure to take care of yourself."

Mochizuki Wakana unconsciously calmed down a little bit at the words of the silver-haired man in front of her. In the end, she nodded firmly and said, "Hi! Hokage-sama, please rest assured. Anada and I will be patiently waiting for you to bring Iris at home."

Came back."

"Yeah." Qianju Tobirama nodded with a smile and said half-jokingly, "I'll have to blame her for leaving her when the time comes. It's not a good thing to leave her without saying goodbye on a rainy day."

"Uh-huh."

"Then I'm going." After saying that, Senju Tobirama also jumped down from the window. His face that was still very gentle at first changed immediately when his back was turned to the couple - Hotaru, what on earth are you thinking about?

What are you doing? Is it out of your own will, or...are you affected by any external factors without my knowing it? Tsk, it's best not, otherwise...

He will kill anyone who dares to attack her without permission.

But to be honest...

On such a rainy day, it is really troublesome to find a little girl who ran away without authorization.

The main reason is that her breath-holding ability is quite good. No matter how strong his perception is, he can hardly detect her presence.

On the contrary, the rain falling from the sky will dilute and wash away her breath. Therefore, even if you ask for help from the ninja beasts, it will be difficult to find her.

so……

What happened?

While Senju Tobirama continued to secretly search for people in the village with the ANBU, he secretly reviewed everything that happened this morning, trying to find some clues.

the other side.

Uchiha sat huddled on a giant tree she found casually with her knees in her arms with a dazed expression. The leaves, which were already a bit withered in the autumn but were still very dense, protected her from the cool autumn rain falling from the sky, so that she would not get wet.

She looked like a drowned cat - of course, after escaping in the rain all the way, she was actually in a state of embarrassment. Even if she was not a drowned cat, she was still a semi-drowned cat.

Fortunately, it was just raining and not thundering today, otherwise her demonstration of sheltering from the rain would be 100% wrong.

At this moment, she was sitting hugging her knees with water dripping from the ends of her messy long hair. Most of her clothes were wet. Her feet, which were turning white from the cold, were slightly curled up. The soles of her feet... well, they looked like a kitten that had just stepped in a mud puddle.

Same, dirty - as the saying goes, "two feet so white, two soles so black"!

However, the Uchiha belt obviously didn't care about this, and only had one sentence in his heart -

What, what should I do...

Obviously I have already left a message to Tobirama-sama, don’t come, don’t come, don’t come!

Why is he still here!!!

She was so frightened that she still didn't know how to face him, so she subconsciously opened the window and ran away... Oh, Lord Tobirama is so smart, he must have noticed something abnormal. Does it mean that she hates him? Actually, she doesn't.

...But, but...even if she wanted to explain, she still couldn't face him...in a short time.

After running around the village at a loss for a while, Uchiha realized with some sadness that he didn't know where to go...

I definitely can’t go back home,

You can't go to Tobirama-sama's house either,

Not to mention the Hokage's office,

Mirror... isn't in Konoha right now, and even if she is, she won't be able to cause trouble for him...

Apart from that, she had almost no acquaintances in the huge Konoha.

So in the end, she could only find a big tree to stay and think about her next move.

But, to be honest, based on what she knew about a certain silver-haired man, it was probably only a matter of time before he found her... well.

Uchiha pursed his lips and thought: No... I cannot be found by him before I can face Lord Tobirama relatively normally!

so……

Where to go?

Use the coordinates of Flying Thunder God to leave the village?

No, no...

Even if she doesn't want to face Tobirama-sama, she still has to abide by the rules. Since she is an ANBU, she must not leave the village without being ordered. Otherwise, how can she have the face to continue to stay in this position and enjoy such high salary and benefits?

What about the treatment? I'm ashamed of Tobirama-sama's trust all the time, so...

"Ah!" She suddenly clapped her hands, "Yes!"

Immediately afterwards, Uchiha jumped down from the tree again, running wildly in the cold autumn wind and rain, and subconsciously used illusions as before...

Therefore, almost no one could see her figure along the way. No matter how sensitive a person is, they would only feel that... well, a gust of wind blew by their side.

Soon after.

The Uchiha belt appeared in the Uchiha clan, and followed the route she remembered last time, and appeared in front of the low door. After hesitating for a while, she finally reached out and knocked gently.

Soon, the cow cat's voice came from the house again.

Moreover, it was probably because it had not been long since the last time that the password had not been changed. This realization made her sigh with relief.

After answering the code, the door opened in response.

The cow cat, who was wearing an ocher kimono today, looked at the embarrassed girl outside the door, and asked in confusion: "What? Are you being hunted? No, the outside of this door is Konoha, could it be said-"

—!!!" Madara-sama was indeed alive and came back with some strange animal???

"...No." The Uchiha band didn't want to add to the terrifying atmosphere without authorization, and quickly waved his hand and said, "No, I am like this...well, it is because of a little personal accident of mine."

"In this way..." Cow Cat sighed with disappointment or happiness, let go of the truth, and said in a perfunctory and listless manner, "Then welcome."

However, Uchiha squatted in place without moving, with a slightly embarrassed look on her face. She whispered: "Well... I came in a hurry today and didn't bring any money. Can I go in and stay for a while, and then pay next time?"

?" She was wearing pajamas at the moment, so of course... well, it's impossible to bring money. Of course, in fact, even if she brought it, it might not be enough, because since she started working, she has been embarrassed to accept Wakana-san anymore.

The pocket money was given, and it was even more impossible to ask Tobirama-sama for it, and since he had not worked for a full month, it was naturally impossible to pay him, so he was said to be... extremely poor.

If Lord Tobirama hadn't kindly treated her to dessert every day, she would have been forced to give up sugar...

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but froze again, thinking with a complicated mood: Tobirama-sama, who doesn't like sweets at all... is willing to buy me sweets every day, which is already a big concession and indulgence... It's hard to imagine.

He can do this for everyone, so...

She is special.

After realizing his true opinion of her, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that Master Tobirama's thoughts had "invaded" almost every corner of her life, and he was everywhere... However, when all the points come together, it can be

Summed up in one sentence——

He is trying to be nice to her.

She is really too stupid...

Didn't notice it at all.

And now, I have unknowingly accepted so many good things from him, but after being frightened, I deliberately avoid him. Isn't it... very excessive...

She lowered her head, her heart filled with guilt. At the same time, she was also mentally prepared to be rejected. After all, she wanted to enter someone else's store without money... Well, it was quite excessive, and being rejected was a natural thing.

.

"In other words, you want to fuck the cat on credit?" Cow Cat said after being stunned for a moment, folding his arms with his paws.

"No, I won't masturbate the cat!" Uchiha waved his hand subconsciously, "Just... just let me go in and stay. I don't ask for anything else."

"Then will you give the cat a bath?"

"……ah?"

"Either take it on credit and pay double, or use labor to pay off the debt." The cow cat tilted its head, "Today happens to be a day when many cats take a bath together. How about it? How do you choose?"

"...Please let me serve my masters!" Ochiha replied with special interest.

"Okay, then come in." The cow cat nodded, "You can take a bath and change clothes first, so as not to dirty the cats here."

"...Yes." He was obviously caring about her, but he said it so unpleasantly. Is this... the style of a cat? Well, it's probably the style of an Uchiha. Thinking about it this way, Kagami doesn't look like a typical Uchiha.

.However, this kind of knowledge not only makes people not happy, but also makes people a little sad...
