"...Huh??? Calamus is missing???"

Senju Shifan, who had just gotten up at this moment, was knocked down by his second uncle who broke into the door and pressed him on the bed to interrogate him. He was completely confused.

"Yes." Senshou Tobimon's eyes narrowed slightly, and he knelt on one knee beside his little nephew's bed. He carefully studied his expression, and after confirming that he really had no knowledge of this, he slightly released his hold on the latter's chest.

He held his hand and asked him to sit up, "After deceiving me on the grounds of abdominal pain this morning, he broke his previous promise and ran home without permission."

"Um..." Senju Shige raised his hand and grabbed his messy long hair, and complained, "With all due respect, second uncle, Iris is free to go home... It can't be said to be 'unauthorized', right?

"If this continues, he is really worried that the little girl will have to report to the second uncle whenever she goes to the toilet. If the time is a little longer, she will be found... Hiss, what a pervert, the second uncle!

"Shut up." Qianju Tobijianmen said coldly, "Since she promised to have breakfast with me and then go home, of course she should do it. People can't stand without trust. What's more serious is that I went to visit afterward.

When she was there, she actually jumped out of the window and left in front of me. This was definitely not something she would normally do, and it was very wrong. And you, Fan, tell me what you and Yingying said behind my back yesterday.

"

"Um..." Senju Shige was halfway through his yawn, and he was stunned. He subconsciously asked, "Second uncle, do you think this matter is related to our previous conversation? No, it's not that..."

"So, what did you say?"

"Um..." Senju Shige still wanted to struggle, so he looked around and asked, "Second uncle, are you sure it must be related? Maybe not..."

"Don't make me ask a third time." Senju Tobirama said in a deep voice, "Otherwise, Shige, you know." He didn't want to joke at this moment, and he would never accept perfunctory remarks, but was very serious about it.

Forced questions. Yes, forced questions, so he must get the answer.

Senju Shige: "..."

Following these words, he suddenly felt a dull pain all over his body.

After the death of his biological mother, he, his deceased eldest brother Senju Kazuo, and his still-born sister Senju Sachiko, could almost be said to have been raised by his second uncle. This second uncle... had a great influence on them.

Tender like a mother, yet stern like a father.

Take good care of them,

When educating them...well, sometimes they are very "cruel".

Let's put it this way, the second uncle is a bit soft-hearted and willing to turn a blind eye to many minor shortcomings, but when it comes to matters of principle, the second uncle is never perfunctory, scolding and punishing when necessary.

At that time, my father, who was busy talking and fighting, was really too busy, and supported all his uncle’s decisions with both hands. The classic saying is -

"Everything is left to you, Tobiramamon. As long as the children can breathe, the rest is up to you."

...a typical biological father.

Of course, the second uncle would hardly do anything to them, but that doesn't mean that the second uncle wouldn't play tricks on them...

So, he was successfully frightened.

In fact, he has begun to wonder whether this incident is related to what happened yesterday. Thinking of this...

Senju Shige asked tentatively: "Then uncle...can you answer me a question first? An Xin, it is definitely related to this matter!"

"...Okay." Senju Tobiramato nodded decisively, "Go ahead."

"You... cough," Senju Shige said with a smile, "Did you... that... dream last night?"

When Senju Tobirama heard this, his crimson eyes widened slightly, because of course he did it, and he had a particularly impressive dream, but what does this have to do with this matter...

“!!!!!”

He suddenly remembered something.

In the past, many years ago, my eldest brother once played an unscrupulous joke on him and used a certain prop to enter his dream in the middle of the night.

That day, what he dreamed about was something that was unlikely to happen in reality - when he was a child, he was studying in the clan with a group of people of the same age. As a result, his eldest brother turned into a teacher to teach them, and then... "bullied" them fiercely.

He was still a child in the dream, and made him copy books, stand in front of him, clean the training ground, etc. for various reasons, tsk.

After waking up.

The eldest brother even came to show off to him, complaining, "Tobiramamon, your dreams are so boring" and so on.

Therefore...

Senju Tobiramamon pinched his nephew's shoulders and asked in a deep voice: "Brother, did you give you the dream stone?" He originally thought that the two stones had been consumed by "my brother who is sometimes too naughty".

Did it actually end up being given to Fan?

"Second, second uncle, it hurts..." Senju Shige showed a pained expression, "As expected of the second uncle, I guessed it right away, that... Iris said he wanted to give you a gift but didn't know what to give, so I just

I lent that to her and asked her to find a chance to ask you in person in her dream, so..."

Qianju Tobimon's face sank, knowing that this should be the truth, because based on this, the little girl's behavior from last night to this morning can be explained. In other words...

What he dreamed about in his dream last night was not a fake, but a real person...

But this incident did not make him feel happy, it only made him feel that everything was terrible.

because……

"Um...Second Uncle," Senju Shige asked cautiously, "You...didn't...have a very wild dream last night..." For example, he went to the battlefield to kill people directly in the dream or...

...catch the little girl and confess to him or something. However, even if he expanded his thoughts ten times more, he probably would not have imagined that his second uncle was not just ordinary wild, but quite wild, so crazy that he was almost crazy.

.

Senju Tobiramamon: "..." He didn't know how to answer, but he knew clearly that he was "finished."

Then his face turned gloomy in an instant.

"...Second uncle?" Senju Shige was shocked because his second uncle rarely lost his temper like this even in front of his family - unless he was facing his father. He quickly raised his hands and pressed his second uncle's shoulders.

He comforted and said, "No, it's okay! Second uncle, even if you dreamed of confessing to Calamus, it doesn't matter! It's not wrong to like someone at all!"

Senju Tobiramamon: "???" He originally lowered his head with silver hair drooping and raised his head again, with a surprised expression on his face and asked, "Nobu... what did you say?"

"Second uncle, don't I just like calamus? This is not a bad thing!" Senju Shige replied calmly, "In fact, it's not just me, except for my mother who is still praying and the young Xiaozuna, the rest of the people

Everyone already knows about this. Of course, don’t worry, everyone is very supportive, so second uncle, just pursue what you want in your heart."

Senju Tojamamon: "..."

This is no longer an ordinary social death, but a public execution.

But compared to this——

"...I showed it very obviously?" He always felt that he hid this emotion very well.

"Um..." Senju Shige thought for a while and replied, "How should I say... maybe outsiders can't see it? But for family members like us... we'll know if we pay more attention, right? Oh, yes

Yes, I suspect the ANBU also know about this."

Senju Tojamamon: "………………"

"It's okay, second uncle." Senju Shige took a deep breath, showed a solemn expression, and once again emphasized what he just said, "If you like it, just like it. If you are discovered, you will be discovered. It's nothing to like someone.

Wrong thing. Calamus... maybe she ran away because she was surprised, but she will definitely come back to talk to you when she figures it out, so don't worry too much, uncle. I'll get up and wash up right away.

Then we will go out to find her together."

"...No." Senju Tobiramado was silent for a while and then replied, "No need...don't worry about this matter."

Because if what Fan said is true, then... he has probably committed an unforgivable mistake.

If the person in the dream is really a real little girl, then... what he did unscrupulously at that time is actually no different from forcing her in reality... right?

She might not just be surprised, but scared or even disgusted. Under this premise, it would be reasonable for her to want to hit him or even kill him.

He closed his eyes, stood up and left without saying anything more.

"...Second uncle." Senju Shige stared at the lonely and lonely back of his second uncle, and was keenly aware that he seemed to have done something wrong. He could swear that he did have good intentions and only hoped that the two of them could be together sooner.

Together, I hope that my second uncle can be completely happy as soon as possible, but it seems... I accidentally tricked my second uncle again.

If the second uncle’s flowers, which only bloom once every forty years, decline and wither because of this, then even if he commits seppuku, he cannot make up for this mistake. Damn it... what should I do???

He thought for a while, then stood up very decisively and started to change clothes - the second uncle could refuse, but he could also insist, in short, in short! As his father said, giving up without doing anything is not a man.

Do what you can first and then talk about it!

the other side.

The Senju Tobirama Gate summoned a searching Anbu, who looked down at him kneeling in front of him. After a moment of silence, he asked: "Sheep, who do you think I will marry if I marry him?"

"...Um, Hotaru?" Anbu replied subconsciously, then immediately raised his hand and covered his mouth that had accidentally lost guard through the mask.

Senju Tobiramamon: "..." Very good... Shige's statement is right. I consciously tried hard to hide the secret in my heart, but in the end, I hid my loneliness.

...This is really ironic.

No, it's not their problem, it's his problem.

He was really somewhat...so confused and obsessed that...

Not like myself at all.

He smiled bitterly and said, "Tell everyone not to continue searching." If she wanted to hide, his doing so would put more mental pressure on her and make her continue to hide in embarrassment.

.The wind became colder and the rain became heavier. If she got sick because of this...he would never be able to forgive himself in this life.

"Um..." Anbu hesitated for a moment, and then gave a rare advice, "Tobirama-sama, are you sure you won't look for it anymore?" Then, he immediately realized his unprofessionalism and immediately lowered his head to apologize, "I'm extremely sorry.
To be continued...
